Hi all

Does anyone know if it is possible to disable the router function on
subj. and only use it as an access point? I have a router from my ISP
with an IP phone line in it which i need to use, and I dont like the
thought of having two routers connected.

Any experiences ?

Regards
Nikod

Nikod,

I've done this a number of times:

1) Disconnect the router's WAN port
2) Disable DHCP on the router (if DHCP is being served elsewhere).
3) Plug cable that was going into WAN port into a LAN port.
4) Now wireless computers connecting to router will communicate with
local lan to find gateway.

Thanks, thats perfect. The router will then be the perfect Access point
with network storage, switch and printer server in one :-)
