I'm switching to a Cell C 3G connection for my internet usage, and have picked up a TP-LINK 3G router to share that around the house. That leaves me with an unused Telkom Mega 100WR router.

Does anyone know if i'st possible to set the mega router up in a different room, within wifi range, and have it access the TP-Link's network? The idea being to allow me to plug non-wifi devices into the mega and have them connected to the TP-Link's internet connection?

Hello Flint

Did you ever manage to do this? I have the same scenario, I want to use the old Telkom Mega 100WR to give access to a non-wireless desktop PC
 
Wow, you only asking Flint this question now? The OP is three years older by now! :p

Anyway, jokes aside I believe you should indicate in this thread to inform others who might have/had a similar issue as you did, like "ktmbikerman". It's the right thing to do. :)
