Hello. I am wondering if my MN-700 wireless base station
can act as an access point to boost signal to some of my
computers across the house. I have an existing wireless
network, and would like to extend the range of my
wireless, and thought that the MN-700 would do that? Can
it be configured that way? I already have a wireless
router configured, and just want to use the MN-700 to
extend the range of the wireless network. Please help!!!

You can't use the MN-700 as a wireless repeater or booster or
extender. It would have to be hard wired to the router you have now.
