I had an AT&T tech over at my place earlier setting up my DirecTV, and I just asked him out of curiosity... He basically told me I should be using this instead:
Look, it’s actually quite straightforward if you think about it. Do you happen to have a laptop with an Ethernet port handy? Just bring your laptop into the office, disconnect the workstation from its dedicated network, and plug that same cable directly into your laptop. If you can successfully pull an internet connection on the laptop, then you won't run into any issues plugging that exact same cable into the access point. It really is that simple, isn't it?
So, once you’ve finally confirmed that everything is good to go, the process is actually quite straightforward: you simply pick up an access point or a router, unplug the LAN cable from your computer, and plug it directly into the access point instead. From there, you just set up your own wireless network on the device and use another LAN cable to bridge the connection between your work computer and the access point. It really isn't rocket science, is it?
