Hi. I have two wireless routers.
One is a belkin something and is connected to the internet by an ADSL line. This is wired to my main PC and wirelessly to my laptop.

I have just been given an Orange livebox wireless router, and i'd like to have this is a seperate room recieivng wireless interweb from router # one, and delivering it to any computers through UTP cables.

Is that possible,
How is it done?

Thanks
Tom.

We will need to know the exact model number.

ok, its
belkin F5D7632-4 version 2000uk
2.4GHz - G

Thats pretty much everything written on it.

Thanks
Tom

I believe that the belkin F5D7632-4 can be used as a wireless access point so my advice would be to use the Orange box as your incoming modem/router and the Belkin as your wireless access point/range extender.

Right ok thanks. I've tried connecting the livebox to my ADSL connection but it simply wont connect. Can't stand the orange software, its really... dumb... I'll give it another go tommorow and post back.... Unless you've had any experience setting up an orange live-box and know where im going wrong from the very little informtion I've given you.

Thanks
Tom.

Maybe give these guys a go as it's so specific: Orange Problems - Index - Orange Broadband, Orange Email, Orange Mobile Phones - OrangeProblems.co.uk (formerly WanadooProblems.co.uk) - let us know how it goes

Thanks.

The guys at the Orange Problems forum say the livebox will only connect to other wireless routers by cabling... not wireless... (strange?). Which I can't do because these routers were going to be on different floors and I don't have that much cable lol.

Suppose I'll have to buy a WiFi USB dongle or NIC or something instead.

Thanks for your help.
