Re: [MLB-WIRELESS] Spare Router<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV>well say if you have an existing router hooked up to the internet or some
other form of WAN (ie melbwireless) what u do is (from memory) you plug your
spare router into one of the vacant ports on the deployed router through
ethernet cable, then instruct the slave router to turn off dhcp and all its
routing functions so that at acts purely as an accesspoint. in this way it
receives/transmits information to/from one router and merely radiates it to
any of its attached clients through RF. you might have to google the specifics
for your router, go to the netgear site they have information on how to do
this, try something like 'using two routers' or 'how to connect two Access
Points'. <SPAN class=398482501-06062007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

<DIV><SPAN class=398482501-06062007><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I use
a router in this configuration to extend the range of my internal
WLAN. Internet is disabled, DHCP is disabled, wireless is turned on (for
both A and G). Works a treat.</FONT></SPAN></DIV></BODY></HTML>
