getting Wireless router to work with rest of network?

[bjy20716]

Hi, we have a firewall and DHCP server and a samba domain server.
We just got a Netgear wireless router and want to use this on our network.
Will we be able to access the other computers and shared printers on our network from computers that are connected to the wireless router?

I turned off the DHCP on the router, is there anyway to get our normal DHCP server to assign addresses to the wireless devices and computers attached to the wireless router?

Can i set it up so its a wireless AP so it just attaches to our network?

The model is netgear wgtb511t

thanks

With DHCP turned off it should act basically as a wireless access point with your own DHCP assigning IP's. Have you tried using it like this yet?

Attach the thing to a regular Windows computer with auto IP log to the Router and change its IP to be the same Band as the rest of your Network, disable the DHCP and any other special filter.
