Wireless network to relay wireless gateway (mac)

    Thread title is a bit confusing maybe...

    So I'd like to set a mac mini up to be a wireless gateway to the internet, but for it also to be a wireless network hub.

    Anyone know if this is possible?

    I imagine the least it requires is two wireless cards (en0, en1?)
    So is it possible to use a wireless usb2 802.11n device to be the network interface and the inbuilt wireless card (802.11b) to act as the gateway?
