how to connect db to wireless network

[teleboss]

You will have to connect with it from your laptop first. Might be best if you switched off the wireless on the laptop and set the AP up so your laptop can connect to the internet through the AP. You should then be able to plug the AP into your Dreambox. You would have to read the instructions on how to configure the device plugged into the AP when it is in client mode.

I think this might confuse the user,

Why would DD-WRT be of no use ?????? He has all ready said he has an existing wireless router in the attic all he needs is a wireless client. ?

If you read his 1st post the router in his attic is the one he uses to connect to the internet.

I think this might confuse the user,

My description might not have been the best but if he gets a client mode capable access point or router the setup will be very similar on both. The AP I linked to can also be setup as a bridge. Either way you need to connect to it to configure it. This usually means connecting a cable to it, many wireless devices default to having the wireless switched off for security reasons son connection by ethernet cable is required.
