MN-700 as base station (and adding mn-500 as access point)

by =?Utf-8?B?RGF2aWRM?= <DavidL@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Nov 18, 2007 at 02:52 PM

I have a fully functioning MN-700 basestation with WEP-64 wireless security

connected directly to a DSL modem and one desktop computer.   Two laptops 
connect wirelessly.  I have no issues with this setup.

Recently I acquired an MN-500 which I wanted to set up in the basement as
a 
wireless access point.   My hope was that the MN-500, once configured 
properly, would connect to the established MN-700 basestation wirelessly
so 
that I could use the 4 switched ****ts on the MN-500 at a workbench in the 
basement, allowing machines needing repair to connect by ethernet to those

four ****ts.  I had hoped I would gain access to the home LAN as well as
the 
internet this way.

Is it possible?  I only see instructions on setting the MN-500 as a wired 
access point for wireless devices -- this of course is not what I want to
do: 
 I want the MN-500 to provide wired connectivity to computers and also to 
network wirelessly to the MN-700 (for DHCP addressing, NAT, and so on).
