I have a Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router in a room where the cable modem
is. Before I bought this, I had a Linksys Wireless-G Access Point connected
to my wired network in another room.
Now I have both of them. How should I setup the Access Point?
If I set it up as a wireless repeater, does it have to remain connected to
the network in order to operate?
If I leave it setup in an Access Point mode (since it still is connected to
my home network), can I just leave the SSID the same, and use the same
channel as my router, and just have it as another access point to the same
network?
