I have a Netgear DG2200 which I use as my main ADSL router. I also have an old Billion 800VGT router which I don't use.

Is there a way to use the 2nd Billion router as a wireless network access point connected to the Netgear ?

Thx

Yes, connect it up to the NetGear with network cable. Give it an IP in the same range as the NetGear. Turn its dhcp off. Give it the same ssid, security and password as the NetGear.

Helps to switch the NetGear off when you do the settings for the billion and make sure you make them use different channels.
