2. Is it correct to place the WiFi Access Point connected to the switch,

Best would be to have another NIC on the router for the WAP (or use a
PCI WLAN card), so you can have stricter rules in the FW for wireless
clients. For instance, allow only certain (DHCP per mac address
assigned) IP's to access the LAN from the WLAN and let others only
access the WAN. WLAN in inherently less secure than wired networking,
so it'd be nice to keep them separated.
1. After thinking of this a little bit I got a knot in my brain! What is
the difference between a WLAN Access Point and for example a Laptop with
a WLAN-Usbstick? Is every PC with an WLAN-Usbstick/PCI-WLAN-Card and an
Ethernetcard an Accesspoint, if the traffic from WLAN is routed to the
Ethernet or DSL?
2. If I would use a switch with VLAN capabilities, it should be secure
to plug it to the switch directly. Is that correct?
