I am wanting to use a wireless adsl modem/router as just a wireless router connected to a ethernet cable modem, so i have a wireless network. Is this possible and if so what parts/settings do i need to use (the router in question is a Netgear DG834GT)?

Thanks in advance guys :)
 
really?? I did setup a similiar thing with a netgear wireless modem/router and a non wireless adsl2+ modem (think it was a DG834G it had better wireless than the adsl2+ modem) about a year or 2 ago for a friend???

edit- Do i need to get a cable wireless router to attach to the cable modem?

With a cable modem? You can't make the ADSL router work as a router with a cable modem - the best you can do is hook the modem to one of the switch ports and you've got a wireless bridge.

what i want is to use the adsl wireless router so wireless users can use the cable connection, i was thinking of connecting the cable modem to adsl wireless router, then using the wireless network if you get what i mean???
