Title: D-Link DIR-600 configure as wifi access point
Post by: bremenpl on January 04, 2016, 12:40:01 AM

Hello there,
I have replaced my DIR-600 router by another D-Link router. Now I would like to use the old DIR-600 in another room as wifi access point. What I mean by that, is the DIR600 router to connect to my main router with WIFI and give network access to devices connected to it by ethernet cables.
Is this possible?

• What Hardware version is your router? Look at sticker under the router case.
• Link>What Firmware (http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=47512.0) version is currently loaded? Found on the routers web page under status.
• What region are you located?

The 600 doesn't support any wireless bridging. So the only way you can repurpose the 600 is to use the wired LAN method in the link.
