I am trying to trick my computer into thinking its directly connected to the internet but use wifi instead.
I know thats a weird question but I am gonna be working from home with comcast and I cant access the program wirelessly I have to be directly connected to the modem and would like to get somthing to allow me to move my computer more freely through the house and still be able to work
 
Solution
A wireless bridge is what you want. It is a networking device that has WIFI as input and provides an ethernet output. Some routers can be configured as a WIFI bridge. Some WIFI "extenders" also have ethernet ports.
