100Base-T to wifi

[obbid]

I have a printer with 100 Base-T ethernet port, but my AP/Hub is quite far away from the printer. so is there any converter can convert 100-Base T to wifi to receive wifi signal from AP and can share the print to multi-users? Many thanks.

You want what's known as a wireless bridge.

Thanks.

What's different between wireless AP and wireless bridge? any product on the market can be reference?

AP = access point, it's a bridge in reverse, used to add wifi to a wired network. Many wifi APs also work as bridges, and vice versa, because they
contain almost exactly the same hardware.

If your printer has a usb port, you can also get a USB print server.
