Thanks again for the info. I managed to get the 2 connected for testing purposes, but have yet to try the laptop to see if the wireless signal is consistent through the 3COM unit.
Hi coffindodger, now configure the 3Com 3CRWDR100A-72 as the wireless access point connected with Ethernet Cat5e patch cable to the BT HomeHub2 router.
I like to have the wireless SSID different for each so I know to which I am connected.
Configure 3Com 3CRWDR100A-72 wireless router as the wireless access point.
LAN Settings
DHCP set to Off.
Wireless Settings
Set wireless channel same as BT HomeHub2 router
Set SSID Mickey Mouse
Wireless Mode 11g only
Advanced
NAT set to Off
Universal Plug & Play set to ON
