Will FirstSpot work with a combined AP/Broadband ROUTER ?

I have a Linksys WAG54G combo AP/ADSL Broadband Router with a built in 4 port switch .

Will Firstspot be able to work with this or will I need to buy a spearate Wireless AP ?

No, WAG54G won't work. See http://www.patronsoft.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1521#1521 . At best, you can only either use it as ADSL modem or AP (but not both).

Dear sam1967,
I am currently presenting to several customers the Firstspot solution with the following components:

1) One Linksys WAG54G.
2) One licensed band NextNet wireless modem with 512k/s Internet access.
3) One Windows Server 2003 with Firstspot Advanced Edition.

My Connections:
Firstspot Server=>Linksys WAG54G router=>NextNet modem

It works perfectly without any problem. If you want to see a more complex environment please read my posts here:

I hope it helps... ;)
