Take the 2-minute tour ×  I have bought a Netgear N300 Wireless
Router (WNR2000v3) and am attempting to use it as a wireless
switch. A.K.A. I am tying to connect 2 wired devices on the 2nd
floor (desktop computer and game console) to the wireless
network that is being run from the Bell 2wire modem on the 1st
floor without running an Ethernet cable up the stairs. The
problem being that I can't seem to figure out how to connect the
two routers.  I'm not sure if I'm going about this wrong (could
it be possible I should be trying to make a bridge connection)
or if this isn't actually possible with the router I bought. If
somebody could please set me straight it would be much
appreciated.  Thanks in advance -Chris  share|improve this
