Hello, I am looking for a secure, travel sized, USB powered, Access Point to be used with a tablet? I would like it to be dual 802.11a/g/n 2.4/5ghz and must have minimum transfer rate of 300mbs with as high range as possible. My goal is to transfer data from a device to my tablet using the access point while powering that access point by the tablet making this completely mobile. The tablet will either have a network port for use or a USB network Ethernet adapter on it. I will need that tablets wireless to connect to a second network so it is not an option for use in this network topology. Any help anyone can provide in suggesting the best hardware for this would be greatly appreciated.
 
I haven't heard of anything, but before we get too far in the weeds, is your tablet capable of charging an external device? That's a relatively new cabability. What model tablet is it?

And it sounds like you might also want the tablet to be connected to two networks at the same time (one with its wifi and one through USB). That might also be tricky.
