I have a Westell Versalink 327W wireless router from Verizon connected by wire to my computer. Can I use a D Link DI 524 wireless router as the access point for the Xbox?

Does your xbox have a wireless client or bridge connected to it?
No I don't have a client or bridge. I just move the Westell 327W from my room to the living room and use a wire to connect the xbox for xbox live. I can't use the computer and the xbox at the same time this way.
I guess the question is can I use the DI 524 as a bridge for the xbox to the Westell?
Thanks
Two suggestions for you:
Hi, no the 524 can not be used as a wireless client/Bridge for your Xbox. You would not use a Router/AP to connect your xbox to another wireless AP, what you want is a wireless bridge.
On the otherhand, you could use the ethernet ports on your 524. Connect the westell to your WAN port on the DI524 and your computer to one of the ethernet ports and your xbox to another of the ethernet ports.

Thanks I guess I should just get the wireless gaming adapter.
