wirless ether net bridge netgear products. How?
Not sure if I am posting in the right forum, as I am not sure if some netgear access point products also allow wireless ethernet bridge. However, I hope someone can help with my questions below about ...
I believe my router supports bridging. However from what I have read on here it sounds like an access point might not work as means of creating a bridge between a piece of equipment with a lan socket (blue ray or pc that doesn't have built in wireless) and an existing wireless network.
I don't see how taking the issue with the manufacturers is really going to help. What I need is a solution that works with my blu ray player that doesn't have wireless built in. Some blu ray players do now have wireless built in, but I'm hardly going to buy a new player when a wireless to ethernet bridge is much cheaper.
Can you help with either of my questions? To repeat them: 1) which of the netgear products I listed is best to buy for the situation I describe?
2) What settings if any do I need to ake on my existing router (netgear dgn2202)?
