Access point on PC

yiorgos · Dec 10, 2013

Is there a way to connect an access point directly onto my PC (not on a router)?

COLGeek · Dec 10, 2013

Yes (maybe). Some access points can be configured to act like a wireless adapter (connected to your PC via an ethernet cable).

Please explain what you are trying to accomplish.

I want to share internet from my pc but the router is not reachable. An access point only connects to a switch or can be connected directly to the pc?

How is your PC connected to your network (wired or wireless)? It may be possible to set up Internet Connection Sharing on your PC to allow you to use the Access Point to "extend" the PC's network connection.

My pc is connected to the network by wireless. I can share it through the ethernet port but I want to share it to wireless devices.

Connect the Access Point to the ethernet port. Set up Internet Connection Sharing using the ethernet port as the shared network. Piece of cake.
