Can someone please point me in the right direction for setting this router up as a wireless access point. I would like to connect it to a wired network. On this network is another router which is the DHCP server, which also has WiFi built in, so I need the 871W to extend the address allocation over both the wired and wireless connections, on the same SSID as the other router. Ideally the 871W should have it's own IP address so that I can still access it on the network, but I'm not too fussed if this can't be done.
The only documentation I could find was to set the router up as a wireless repeater, but because the two routers are sitting on the same wired network, I'd prefer to make use of this so that I don't lose any bandwidth.
Thanks,
Campbell

Is anyone able to assist with this? It's such a straightforward thing to do with other routers.
