well thats easy, mostly. have your wireless hub attached to a new nic, and
have that interface be assigning dhcp to all your roaming clients. then
route the traffic over that interface the exact same way you would route
any other interface. apple's airports provide dhcp and NAT all on their
own -- im not sure if any of the other ones do that.

have fun,
