Default Modem Router Question

I've got a D-Link DSL604 modem router and it's wireless as well.

Now I was wondering could I use it as a wireless access point?

What I'm trying to do is get the xbox360 online without having to fork out £50......so a lot of people have been connecting the xbox by LAN to a wireless access point and then bridging the connection.

Can it be done on the above mentioned modem router? Already have a modem router that is running at home this is just spare so kind of ignore the modem function of it (if we can)

Cheers

I reckon you can if you put it in bridge mode. don't know that particular router. Try looking on the ADSL Guide forums, plenty of knowledge there. http://bbs.adslguide.org.uk/

although, why not just replace your present router/modem for the Dlink with wireless? then the X-box etc could connect wirelessly with no faff.

already have a wireless modem router setup for the PCs BUT the xbox360 has only a LAN port on it and it's downstairs where everything else is upstairs hence why I need it to connect wirelessly
