I am presuming that it is the D-Link that you wish to put into a 'bridging' mode - that is, wirelessly connect to another AP. There is hardware to do that - but that doesn't mean that your device is capable of it or not capable of it. I simply don't know. I believe that their DWL-G710 Wireless Range Extender can do what you want... http://www.dlink.com/products/?sec=1&pid=357 Craig
