David,
to be honest the best / easiest solution would be to put a small
5-port hub between the caymen and the AP ... which in turn would allow
you to connect the computer as well ... they're reasonably inexpensive
and available from all the usual suspects www.komplett.ie,
www.marx-computers.com and probably your local Compustore / PCWorld /
whatever !
