Has anyone ever tried this? I had an old AP (DLink DWL-900AP+) that I gave to my neighbor. I was able to get it to work, but in order to configure the AP I had to disconnect the DSL modem then change the laptop to be in the 192.168.0.* subnet. Once the AP was configured I changed the laptop back to "Obtain an IP address" and plugged the modem back in. The IP address was then assigned by the ISP, but I was no longer able to connect to the AP's web configuration utility (different subnet). Granted this is not a big hassle (how often do you configure an AP?), but if I ever have to do phone maintenance I want the procedure to be as easy as possible.
So the question is: Is there any way to set this up so that I can see then internet and the AP's web configuration utility? Perhaps windows network bridging?
