I do someting similar - D-Link networked storage attached to Netgear
RangeMax Next gigabit edition. Used as a backend file server for
shared data and backups. Wireless access from the laptop using
802-11N, also from a couple of old PCs at the other end of the house,
gigabit ethernet from the office desktop.

If you do much access via wireless to a hard disk you really want your
local network to be as fast as possible. The laptop has a D-Link
802-11N Expresscard which turned out to be much faster than the D-Link
and Netgear USB sticks whicg get moved around some older PCs as
necessary.
