Title: getting more from a 2wire 2700HG-B
Post by: MarkB on Mar 15, 2009, 21:15:37
Hello,

Is it possible to connect the 2700 to my motorola sb5100 via the ethernet, and configure it as a wifi router?

I was given it and thought it was both a cheap wifi solution and a possible way of leanring a bit about routers etc before I buy something else.

Many thanks

Mark B

I don't know anything about a motorola sb5100 but I should ask one of the Moderators to move this thread the child board of IDNet help, here (http://www.idnetters.co.uk/forums/index.php?board=25.0) as it will be more visible to other 2700 users who check this board.  :)
