    Try to use Qwest router
    Hi all, I switched to a new internet service provider, but I have my old qwest dsl modem, with wireless gateway, it's made by actiontec. My question is can I use this as a wireless access point, on one of my computers, like a wireless usb device, because it has a usb attachment on it?

    Maybe, if you wire it into another router and disable the DHCP features.
