My router is downstairs and the WI-FI module is still in the box uninstalled. Will the module, once installed, act as a network adapter?

Sorry but I have no idea. But I can say the board has worked great for me. Wi Fi and all.

It has a wireless network adapter but you need to have the driver installed.

Thanks, Bernie. I did buy the adapter and it worked fine while I was here. Of course, when I was out there in Tokyo, the hotel room's Ethernet cable wasn't working so I still had to use the 2nd floor Guest Lounge Wifi, LOL! >_<

This adapter converts a WiFi signal to ethernet connections for devices that do not have native WiFi support. So, no - this isn't the device you need.

I had the same question, and so far from exeriments the answer seems to be no. Specifically if you set it up as a wireless client, it will act as a hub rebroadcasting wireless (on a new SSID) to other wireless clients, but it doesn't allow access from a 'wired client' connected to the ethernet socket.. (Which is a shame). Wonder if this might be fixable with a firmware upgrade? Would make the box even more useful...

Not sure as it never really worked well for me, even after I updated the firmware. I had it plugged directly into the router too!

Well you need to install the disc on to a computer. There you will connect the Wifi Bridge to your network. Once done you plug up the Ethernet to your device. You do not need the power adapter the USB plug can power the Wifi Bridge. Both have to be plugged up to work.

I did. works fine. make sure your router is configured right. I had to plug it into a LAN port instead of the wan port

If you already have a wireless network in your house, then you can use his adapter instead of running an ethernet cable from your router to a piece of equipment. You can attach this adapter to a TV, Blu-ray player or any other piece of electronics that has both an ethernet port and a USB port. When it is attached it will allow that piece of equipment to join your wireless network.

I don't believe so. it's been a while since I set mine up but I think I had to connect it to my computer 1st, run the disk, tell it what network to connect to and give it the network password before it could access my router via Wi-Fi. I also had to make some changes to my router settings.

I don't know, I just hooked it up and everything worked, router might be bad, I have a netgear router, very happy with it.

I have everything else on wi-fi with this router, I have it hooked up just as you said, and the rest of my equipment run on wi-fi...so the simple answer would be yes :)

You will have to hook-up to ethernet for a short while and download the correct drivers from the internet instead of from the CD. Here is a link (copy and paste it):http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/17744/~/wna1100-release-software---version-1.1.3.26

The router only acts as an extension of your existing router. It should automatically connect exactly the same way it connects to your current router. It just extends the network with the same user name and password.

Hi, maybe i am not the right person for you to ask this question now, cause i am actually having problems now. It was working fine, but for some other reasons, i needed to re install everything from Factory, and now is not working properly. I go a Little bit far from the router, and the speed goes down town. Hope my answer is usefull. Cheers

Yes - the Netgear adaptor acts like an Ethernet port, so when the power returns, the system will return to normal function.
