Wireless bridge to switch/hub?

Maboza · 2009-06-02 13:59:33

I have a couple of ethernet wireless bridges ( 1 d-link and 1 usrobotics)which connect games consoles to my wireless adsl gateway. Each bridge has just one RJ45 connector. I now want to connect a couple of more devices wirelessly. Can I simply connect my wireless bridges to a switch or hub and share it? Ta.

Short answer yes. That should work. With wireless you never know though. I have an external raid drive that will not work over wireless so not all devices are plug and play.

A hub or switch would work fine.
