Hello

We want to add a wireless access point to our small library at James
Madison, and I picked up a Motorola WR850G for around $60.  The WR850G
is a router (not just an access point because it's easier to find
routers on the shelves).  I'm sure it's just a matter of some sort of
configuration, but I want it to function as an access point, that is to
pass through DHCP requests to the appropriate MSU resources, get an IP
address from MSU's DHCP system.  I shut off NAT and the router's built
in DHCP, but no luck.

Is it even possible to do this, or do I need to return it for an 'access
point'?  You can configure all sorts of things, and turn on RIP v1 and
v2 and add routes and what not.  I'm sure I'm just missing something.
