My question is;&nbsp;</SPAN></P> <P>Can I change my old Hub One router into an Access Point?</P> <P><SPAN>A friend of mine carried out the same exercise for me a few years ago when I upgraded from the Hub Zero (2704n) to the Hub One and it's been working fine, however I guess that the security and specs. on the old 2704n are a bit outdated. Unfortunately my friend is no longer around and also my Windows PC gave up the ghost a while back and I've not had any reason to replace it so I was wondering whether I can access the Hub One router settings through the USB?</SPAN></P> <P>The one thing that I've found a bit confusing is that the Hub One and Hub Two routers have the same I.P. address which makes accessing the Hub One a bit difficult. I know that I could just go out and buy an off the shelf product but I get put off by the reviews of whatever I'm looking at and if I can reuse the Hub One it's kind’a like recycling.</P> <P>I have an Ethernet cable connecting the Hub 2 (upstairs) to the Hub Zero (downstairs).</P> <P>Any help would be appreciated.</P> Sat, 09 Mar 2024 14:43:55 GMT https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Can-I-use-my-Hub-One-as-an-Access-Point/m-p/1961592#M37961 Atlanticboy 2024-03-09T14:43:55Z https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Can-I-use-my-Hub-One-as-an-Access-Point/m-p/1961596#M37962 <P><a href="https://community.plus.net/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/131665">@Atlanticboy</a>&nbsp;</P> <P>Instructions are found in the first post of this thread&nbsp;<A href="https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Using-a-2nd-Plusnet-Hub1-as-a-Wireless-Access-point/m-p/1385192#M1845" target="_self">Using a 2nd Plusnet Hub1 as a Wireless Access point</A>&nbsp;</P> <P>HTH</P> Sat, 09 Mar 2024 15:06:33 GMT https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Can-I-use-my-Hub-One-as-an-Access-Point/m-p/1961596#M37962 Dan_the_Van 2024-03-09T15:06:33Z https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Can-I-use-my-Hub-One-as-an-Access-Point/m-p/1961605#M37963 <P>Thanks Dan,</P> <P>I'll give it a go when I can find someone with a Windows PC.</P> Sat, 09 Mar 2024 16:43:28 GMT https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Can-I-use-my-Hub-One-as-an-Access-Point/m-p/1961605#M37963 Atlanticboy 2024-03-09T16:43:28Z https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Can-I-use-my-Hub-One-as-an-Access-Point/m-p/1961606#M37964 <P>It can be done via a wireless device, it just needs more thought. I wouldn't use a smart phone though.</P> <P>Dan</P> Sat, 09 Mar 2024 16:58:28 GMT https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Can-I-use-my-Hub-One-as-an-Access-Point/m-p/1961606#M37964 Dan_the_Van 2024-03-09T16:58:28Z https://community.plus.net/t5/My-Router/Can-I-use-my-Hub-One-as-an-Access-Point/m-p/1961611#M37965 <P>I've got an Android tablet and phone, so I think I will wait until I can find a PC.
