Is it possible to use a wireless router as an access point? Basically when I go away to school I know that we need to bring a hub with us to split the internet access between two roommates. I would also like to have a wireless connection and I was wondering if a using a wireless router in place of a hub would work. I know I can just get a hub and a wireless acess point, but I'm trying to cut down the equipment. One of the computers will be hooking into the Broadband line through a CAT 5 cable, the other I want to be wireless. Basically I'm wanting to uplink a router to a router, I'm assuming the second router will be a slave to the first and only act as an access point but I just want to be sure.

Yes it does. All you need is the wireless router. It is not only a router but access point and switches (better than hub give you full bandwidth while hub will share bandwidth). Most wireless network have 4 ethernet port to go along so hopefully that enough for you to use. If you need more than 4, just get another switch or hub connect to one of the port on the router and you are good to go. Hope this help
