Hi

I need a wireless access point and was thinking of purchasing a dome shaped airport base station of a friend.... Does it work as an access point? I just need it to convert the ethernet connection from a cable into a wireless one.....

Im prob being really stupid here but im not very good when it comes to understanding wireless networks

Thanks for you help

Yes- it can be placed into bridge mode which basically turns it into an AP.
