request: chromecast-like setup for WiFi dongle (no replies)

Hey guys.
I'd had some luck with the WiFi setup in the past, but had issues with the WiFi dongle being independent of the Ethernet connection. Seems that the WiFi network interface would always piggyback on the Ethernet and wouldn't work too well without a wire connected too.
I got a little frustrated and stopped working on it, but after rearranging my physical network, I had some more thought on working more on the WiFi.
Has the WiFi become more user friendly lately?
I had thought that a setup like the chromecast would be helpful; plug a dongle into the pogoplug, and the pogoplug sets up a network with a webpage that allows general setup. This could be used for more config than WiFi but this is just a start.
Is this feasable? Looking for input and ideas on how to implement into an image.
Thanks.
