Ice Box 2 As Wireless Access Point

[alexw]

Hi, I am considering getting an Ice Box 2 and a Toppy. However my current setup has my wifi access point by the TV( it is an ASUS WL-500g). Is it possible for the Ice Box to act as the Wireless Access Point ( it doesn't have to be a DHCP server as this is taken care of by the ADSL modem/router)? If I could do this then I wouldn't need to run my existing Access Point, and it would look a lot neater. I know that I could relocate my Access Point elsewhere, I would just prefer it if I could stop using it all together.

Cheers

Alex

No, the icebox2 cannot run as an access point.

It can run as a wireless bridge for other ethernet based devices, but only back to another access point.
