    Wifi or wireless which ever you like to call only works in the range of that hot spot. That mean you can only use the wireless if you are close enough to that router that is why they are called hot spots. If you would like reliable wireless in your vehicle you would have to look at getting a data card from a wireless provider. e.g verison, T mobile, telus.. or what ever wireless provider servers your area. They work like cell phones so if you are in an area where a cell phone doesn’t have signal you will probably not be able to use the internet.

    If i understand correctly you want to bridge and not route. Instead of connecting your WAN port to your LAN just connect to one of the other ethernet ports on your wireless router to the switch that is on your LAN.
