Solong as your connections to you are running windows, and they have no
other routes, they should be fine, ie...

           wireless
             |
             |
[lan] -> [windows box]
             |
             |
            internet

just do some reading on the route command, and you should be fine. If your
clients are going to have connections to them, they probably have to run
something that can run a routing protocol, iirc, win2k server allows you to
do rip and ospf.

Note though, that is potentially insecure, as the box may route from
wireless -> internet, (and it may be masquerading.)
