Quick wireless question

[joeyjojo]

PC1 -+---Router ~~~~~~~Access Point ---- PC3
PC2--|

Basically, the question is: can a Netgear WG602 Access Point receive a signal from the wireless router (the wavy line) and send it by wires to PC3?

As in, can I use an access point instead of a pci card?

Need an answer asap. Thanks

To do what you describe would involve configuring the AP as a wireless bridge.
The only references I could find for this mention configuring specific modes to another Netgear AP. This implies the bridging method is Netgear specific so I would say that the chances of it working with your router are pretty slim.

So the answer to your question will be no.
