I have an extra DSL-2640B router given by TM lying around. The router that I am currently using is also a TM DSL-2540B. Is it possible to use it as an access point? If so, what are the steps that needs to be done?
I want to set it up at the second floor of my house to gain better signal coverage.
Hope to hear from u guys soon. Thanks in advance.
Yes you can, it's very simply but it's a wired access point not that WDS kind.I want to set it up at the second floor of my house to gain better signal coverage.

1) First you reset your extra 2640B
2) Then you login and disable LAN DHCP and set the IP of the router to a client IP of your 2540B let say 192.168.1.254 if it's not in use.
3) Then configure the WiFi setting
4) Plug a config from LAN port (2540B) to a LAN port (2640B) and place in on ur second floor
5) Turn the power on, up and running and you're good to go
2 and 3 must be done via LAN to your PC or it may get messy.
