Internet access using Edimax BR-6204WG as NIC
- by Mat Richardson
My internet access at home is provided by Virgin Media via their superhub.
I have a laptop with no NIC - however I do have a spare wireless router, the Edimax BR-6204WG, which I have been led to believe can be used to bridge wireless connections. Only problem is, I'm not sure how to go about doing this.
The manual for the device is here:-

Basically, I want to be able to connect the Edimax wireless router to my laptop using ethernet cable and to use it to pick up the wireless connection from my Virgin superhub. I've managed to get so far in some ways, but then I'm stuck.
