Hi, :confused:
I need to connect my DVR security system up to my wireless router (Sky Sagem) but the dvr is in my bedroom and the modem/router is in the lounge would this work- http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=NW-006-TP - if it would how do I configure it to connect to the wireless network to enable me to view my security camera's over the internet with my iphone please? I know when connecting a laptop we just enter the network key but I do not know how to link together the tp link and the modem/ router, I am so thick when it comes to understanding network stuff sorry. Or is it best just to go for some thing like this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=NW-019-TP&groupid=46&catid=1604&subcat=
Any help you can offer is truely appreciated :)
Regards, Wayne..

You need an AP that supports bridging. That TPLink one almost certainly won't, purely looking at the price :P

You could always just connect the swtich the DVR connects to (or it's management NIC depending on th type of DVR) to the router using a boring old Cat5 cable. It's probably the cheapest and most reliable solution.
 
Just a further note about bridging, I don't think the sky routers support it, it's a feature that certainly doesn't work on the Sky Netgear router (DG834GT).
