Re: [Connection Sharing] Access Point

DHCP has nothing to do with Wireless. Your router is already configure to use RFC 1918 private address for your LAN. If you want you can use a different private address bock.

What ComTech 4 See Profile meant was that most home broadband routers are cheaper then buying a commercial Access Point. You turn a broadband router into an Access Point by disabling DHCP and connecting it using one of the LAN ports, leaving the WAN port disconnected. By hooking it up that way both wired and wireless devices are on the same network so things like file and print sharing work.
