Hi,

I have a Netgear FS121v2 wired printer server with my printer next to my present router and working perfectly. Lately, I wanted to move my printer upstairs.

I have a spare Trendnet 652BRP v2 wireless router which has a firmware that can turn it to "wireless client mode only" .

I am wondering if it is possible to connect the Netgear print server to the Trendnet router and put it upstairs to become a wireless print server?

Thanks.
 
Yes, wireless client bridges make any ethernet device plugged into them wireless enabled. Make sure the IP of the Trendnet doesn't share the same as your router by changing it.
