Re: Wireless network set up help.
Not all wireless routers can act as a wireless client. On some the wireless only works as an access point. But I do not know of any router that would work as a wireless client and access point at the same time (not sure about Linksys travel router). So you might need 2 wireless devices, where one or the other would be a wireless client, and either that or the other device would do NAT
For example I have a Zyxel P-330 (which CompUSA calls P-330C). In my case I am using it as wireless client bridge, to connect to my wireless router. But it also has what it calls wireless ISP mode, where it can do NAT behind its wireless client. But you would also need another similar device or a regular access point for you laptop to connect to. |
