Title: Does what I thought it would. However....
Product review: I knew from reading the reviews that an XP machine would be needed to configure. I thought a virtual XP machine in Win 7 would get the job done. Wrong. Had to boot into XP native.One other foible. It connects to my Upstairs SSID without issue (WPA2), SO LONG AS MAC FILTERING IS TURNED OFF. Call me paranoid. But I like adding MAC filter on top if WPA / WEP. This bridge cannot cope (it seems). In any case I got mainly to connect my Ethernet enabled electric smoker to my LAN (this will enable test messages regarding meat temperature) so I guess I can disable MAC filtering on those summer weekends when I fire it up.I tested this evening on an old XP machine in the kitchen. Connected fine - and did not interrupt the kids Wii streaming via Netflix. Although when the unit was in my office in close proximity to the SSID I told it to connect to, it did manage to lock up the router - and knock Netflix off the air. Should not be an issue in it's final placement.
