Use D-Link router as Wi-Fi adapter

[Whammy]

Ok so short story short, I'm wondering if I can use my DIR-615 router as a Wi-Fi adapter, because I'm not home this week and I was lent a cheap USB Wi-Fi adapter for my desktop but it keeps disconnecting from the main router, and it's too far away for an Ethernet connection. Also, I'm 100% sure it's the USB adapter and not the host router or internet speed causing the disconnects. I can't find anything helpful on Google for doing this with a D-Link router specifically, and can't figure out where my client or WPS settings would be when I log into the router, and I don't want to spend hours figuring it out, so I'm turning to you great folks.

Thanks!

With ddwrt firmware you can usually set up the router to connect to wife point but I don't know if the stock firmware could do it

Most DIR-615 are supported by dd-wrt
