wireless > wired bridge
 

if you connected a HUB to a wireless > wired gaming bridge could you use it to connect both a console and a pc to a wireless network? :confused:

Edit:

oh blast i should have posted this in networking sorry...

would one of the cf team mind moving it please.

I don't understand - how would the hub connect to the wireless component? Surely the hub would have to come first?

Re: wireless > wired bridge
 

If you know what a Wireless Bridge is, it turns a Wireless Signal back into an Ethernet Cable like for a games console that's expecting a Wired Input.

As for the OP I really don't know on that one I'm afraid.

Yes, it should work. The hub and bridge are both 'dumb' devices, so the DHCP request will go straight to the router on the other end of the wireless.

This does work, i've used a netgear router this way before when the netgear was all the place we were doing support for had available for us to use.

Although not relevent to the disscussion, the only alteration we had to make it to give it a LAN side IP address that was different to the range we were using on the LAN.

thanks sorry if i didn't word the orginal post very well..

Basicly what i was asking is could a wireless bridge (which usally have 1 wired port) be connected to a hub so 2 devices could be plugged into the bridge.

although it looks like it thanks.

Someone wanted something to connect his pc and 360 to his wireless lan, thought it might be cheaper than getting a wireless card for the PC and the 360
