converting router to access point

antonye · 16-Jan-2009, 10:57

I'm not familiar with the XBox, but if it has built in wireless (like my Wii) then you shouldn't need an access point? The netgear 934 is more than capable of allowing access for your XBox...

Ok, ignore that. I had a quick look and it seems that the xbox has an ethernet port but no wireless. According to a quick google, you can use the F5D7230 as a bridge/access point. Check the manual (or google for it) as it should tell you in there. Much fiddling required though I think!

thansk guys, found a manual which gives a guide how to do it, although it may as well be how to balance a crank, it makes no sense at all to me!!

nothing to lose so give it a crack tomorrow.

Wii has built in wireless? I thought you had to buy an adaptor for it?

I must look closer at the kids new toy ...

Hello TP

why did you need to buy an adapter? mine just connects to the router via wireless.

I haven't bought an adaptor, I haven't looked into connecting it to anything yet. I had just assumed it would need one. Cool if it doesn't, I'll set it up tonight or this weekend

Wii is wireless - got one of those aswell, alas Xobox isnt

Craig - will give it a go with instructions, if completely fail (rather than fail a bit

) I'll bell you
