Yes. What he's trying to describe is using the Netgear router as a
simple 'access point' instead of as a
You might run into a issue using the Netgear as a AP with DHCP turned
off. Sometimes in this scenario the AP will not forward the DHCP query
correctly. If this is the case using static ip address's maybe an
alternative.

Let me throw in one additional wrinkle. Due to the physical constraints
of the house, it may be necessary to add a switch to this setup.
Wondering if such a network design is horribly flawed. The connections

My setup is just like that. I have ATT Uverse, but have disabled
wireless on the Uverse box. I use a Linksys WRT610N as an AP. I merely
disable the DHCP functionality on the latter and assign it a address
outside of the Uverse boxes DHCP range, yet inside the network mask.
Works without any
I have ATT U-Verse service. Their gateway acts as an 100 Mbps ethernet

into it. Works great, mostly.
