 Belkin F5D7230 Wireless router I have a Belkin F5D7230 wireless router that I no longer need to use as a router. Can I configure this to use as a wireless extender. I have a dead spot in my house and would like to get it covered. I would need to use this as a Wireless to wireless extender as a can't install cables. TIA Iain   |

If so, I am sure this would work fine so long as you disabled DHCP on the Belkin. I have never tried connecting them wirelessly, although you might want to look at connecing the in "ad-hoc" mode rather than infrastructure. Mark. www.kpcomputerstore.co.uk |

Mark. www.kpcomputerstore.co.uk sorry about the delay in replying. I would like to connect them wirelessly. If I had to run a cable I might as well run it all the way, but it wouldn't be easy to do neatly. Regards, Iain |
