Configuration will be:

SBS 2008 hooked up to switch. Switch hooked up to Netgear WG602v4 Access Point.

Want clients connecting through the access point to receive DHCP IP addresses from SBS 2008. According to this article, the access point should 'hang' off the network like any other device and operate in bridging mode.

So....this is an example of the access point's interface: http://tools.netgear.com/landing/g [...] index.html

Within this interface, what would I need to do to allow this to happen?

I'm thinking disable DHCP under "IP settings", inserting a static IP address, subnet mask would be the one the SBS is using and gateway the server IP address?

Under Advanced>Wireless Bridging, I think it would be the second option with the MAC address of the server's internal NIC?

Been thinking and I think it's a non-issue (my problem). I don't think it matters if the Access point provides it's own IP addresses or the server as wireless clients connected to the AP should still have access to server/network resources.
