I recently purchased a WHR-HP-300N, and have a question about connecting it to a WHR-G300N.
I have a computer that's about 20-30 feet from the router. I have a wireless USB adapter but it doesn't work that well, so I thought I would look at another option. The WHR-G300N can act as an access point correct? So could I connect the G300N to the HP300N and connect my desktop to the G300N via an Ethernet cable? Basically I want the G300N to act as my 'wireless card' for the desktop that is 20-30 feet away from the HP300N that's connected to the modem, so I thought this option would be better than buying a USB stick.
But I want to make sure I can connect that desktop via an ethernet cable to the access point, the G300N. I am using a wireless N network.
This is what I'm trying to do, not sure what it's called, but curious if I can do something like this. Router #1 is the WHR-HP-300N and #2 is the WHR-G300N.
does this 'halve' the traffic like a WDS does?? What kind of data rates can I expect with my Wireless N network between the two? – v15 – 2010-07-28T17:32:21.360
No, I would expect to get the full N speed from it. – Kevin Panko – 2010-07-28T17:40:05.350
