Thread: ethernet bridge

  1. #1

    Question ethernet bridge

    I have already the wl500g.

    I am going to connect my satelite tuner to the network, it has only a cable ethernet plug. So I need an ethernet bridge, like the linksys wet54g

    http://www.linksys.com/products/prod...d=36&prid=603.

    BUT, can I use the wl300g or wl500g as well? and which to prefer?

    (it's minor price difference and much more for the money if possible)

    I think you don't have to buy another WL-300g if you already have a WL-500g. Just try it, it should work fine.

    ok, but I think there is a misunderstanding:

    I have a home network with 3 pc connected wireless with an wl-500g router as a base, and wl-100g network-cards for the to other lap-tops.

    Now, I want to connect my satelite-tuner (and later my PlayStation2) wireless to my wl-500g base. Since my satelite tuner does not have built in wireless-network (only regular cable-network-card), this CAN be done with the mentioned linksys wet54g-unit....

    BUT I am wondering if it can be done with buying a SECOND wl-500g-unit (in stead of the linksys wet54g ethernet bridge) functioning as wireless network bridge to my existing wl-500g-router-base????? (or wl-300g?)

    I would say both devices (WL-300g and WL-500b) should match your requirements - the WDS feature is what you need to enable.
