| 802320 | 2009-08-19 02:43:00 | Err, no: - doesn't mention using adaptors as an AP. Err well he didnt say WHAT the AP was either. AP's can apply to adapters as well. Not just wireless routers (if the AP is part of it). Or a standalone AP (if they exist) |

| 802321 | 2009-08-19 03:00:00 | Yup, use an Asus WL-520GU as a repeater bridge, it'll do just what you want :) +1, just try any oft he options here: www.dd-wrt.com See which one suits you best. |

| 802322 | 2009-08-19 03:00:00 | You can get standalone APs, I have two, the Micronet SP918B and Level-1 WAP-0003 as an example. Not sure how easy they are to buy now, though. |

| 802323 | 2009-08-19 04:30:00 | Yeah I found that using DD-WRT's Repeater-Bridge mode worked easiest / best :) | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||

| 802327 | 2009-08-19 11:41:00 | just used my cheap wireless router, set it to client mode and plugged it into a switch, all my comps in my room have the internet now xD Cheers It just happened to work with DDWRT? Or did its native firmware support it already? What model/brand? |

| 802328 | 2009-08-19 11:45:00 | soz what's DDWRT? I've got two camio wireless routers, one set up normally that's plugged in to the broadband router/modem in the house. the other is set to client mode which basically receives the signal and pumps it into my ethernet switch so I can plug **** into it and have teh interwebz. the camio routers were just cheapies | mOOseCaNNoN (13319) | ||
