Use Netgear Wireless ROuter as Wireless Bridge?

Echo Kilo · 09-14-2006, 02:47 AM

I have computers behind a switch - all with static IP's. I'd like to add some wireless computers to the network so they can all communicate.

Putting them all behind the wireless router is not an option so I'd like to use it as a wireless bridge.

It's a Netgear WGR614, can anyoe help?

A wireless bridged to what else? Wireless bridge is two wireless access point.

You mean you want to just configured it to be an access point right? Connect it to your existing switch?
