    Wireless Connection through NTL set-top box

    Just wondering if anyone out there has set this up?

    I have a customer with an NTL set-top box. They want a wireless router connected to the set-top box and then connect their PC's using wireless PCI cards.

    Can I set-up the router directly through the set-top box or do I have to configure it through a PC first?

    Any comments from people who have done this already would be great.

    From what I understand aren't the set top boxes routers themselves? If so then all's you have to do is plug in the wireless ap to the device and dhcp should take care of the rest. If it is not then all's you have to do is plug in your router/ap wan port into the set top box and then configure the router (following the instructions that come with the device) to grab an ip from your ISP (unless it is pppoe then you will need to input your username and pw and also select the appropriate connection type in the router control panel). Anybody else?
