I have Sky bradoband (using their own router) and want to use a 2800VG to a) become a wireless bridge to extend the range of my broadband & b) connect to my Sky HD Box via an ethernet cable so I can use Sky Antime+

Due to distance involved I cant connect to my Sky router via Ethernet.

Is this possible? If so, what are the exact steps to configure the 2800VG to do this. Did a search but couldnt find anything.

Thanks
Chris

It depends whether the sky router supports WDS, if not, you can't make a wireless bridge between the two.
If you search for WDS on the draytek.com site they've got some guides for WDS bridge mode which is how you'd configure that.
