Is it possible with WNR2000 wireless router???

I have wired/wireless network throughout the house which works perfect.
The set up so far is:
Virgin Media Cable modem, hard wired to a Belkin N1 router, hard wired to a desktop PC & PS3, + wireless to second PS3 UPSTAIRS.

DOWNSTAIRS I have a Belkin N1 USB adapter connected to a desktop PC and wireless to two laptops, and ALL work 100%.

Is it possible to connect the WNR2000 wireless router to my existing network wireless DOWNSTAIRS & use the four ethernet connections to use IP satellite equiptment.???:confused:

Please advise as Ive spent the whole day & got nowhere!

  • not recommend to repeat been WEP limited.

    and wnr2000 must be V2 or V2 to even began to have this options for repeat if belkin support WDS

    get extender instead which will JOIN existing with highest security.

  • Thank you for your reply.
    My wnr2000 IS V2 & the Belkin DOES support WDS.
    How do I configure the wnr2000 to act as a wireless client/bridge/repeater?
    (step by stem instructions would be good)

    It is vital that I am able to use the 4 ethernet ports via cable.
    The two items you have listed dont seem to have 4 ethernet ports, or am i mistaken.

    Thanks for your help.
