One WL-500g working as AP and client simultaneously

**cooper.zl** · 26-04-2006, 07:54

Is it possible to set up ASUS WL-500g as client and AP simultaneously?
For example: I have my ISP connected using WIFI and over my home is every PC connected using ethernet cabel. But I have my notebook with WIFI and I want to connect my notebook to this network - but using WIFI. (see 'picture' below)

Code:

ISP ~~~<wifi>~~~ [asus]---<ethernet>-----[PC1]
                      |---<ethernet>-----[PC2]
                      |~~~<wifi>~~~~~~~~~[notebook]

Thanks for answers...

No, it's not possible.

...not unless his wireless ISP supports WDS mode :-)

WDS does not work in Home Gateway mode in the way he needs.
