Hello

I have a Netgear router I just bought a month ago. Its a WGR614g. Im planning to get a new ISP that unlike my current ISP gives out 4 IP adresses. So I dont really have the use for a router now. I dont want to sell my Netgear router because I payed a lot for it and it has a wireless accesspoint built in.

Does anyone know if you can run the router as a switch and have the ability to use the wireless accesspoint?
 
yes u need to disable the dhcp server in the router and it will be just a switch :)
 
why not?

how is he getting to the net then.

just turning off the firewall (nat) will do it.
