Can I turn my old router into a Wireless Acess Point?

I have recently found my old BEFW11S4 V4 Wireless Router. It has the latest firmware. What I was wondering is it possible to turn it into an Access Point, so that I can increase the range of my Wireless Network. I currently have A wireless router on my network. Any help would be great. Thank you.

Never mind, I figured it out on my own

can I turn my old Iphone into Ipod? It says that I need a valid SIM card

Follow these steps to use your iPhone without a wireless service plan:
Insert the SIM card from your new, activated iPhone or one that was previously used to activate the original iPhone.
Connect the iPhone to iTunes on a computer connected to the Internet.
Once iTunes activates the device, you're free to remove the SIM card and use the iPhone as if it were an iPod touch.

How can I turn my old macbook into a file server

So I have an old macbook from 2007. I don't believe it can run yosemite or mavericks, so i'm stuck with lion at the moment. I wanna be able to leave it running as a server so when I go away I can access files from it. Basically I wanna use it as my own cloud server. I use this program called plex from the itunes store which works great as a media server, but I wanna make even more use of the thing. It's such a great computer still even after all these years. Is there any (preferably free) way I can accomplish this safely? I'd like to be able to have some sort of authentication too so no one else can get into the server without a passcode or something.

You may also wish to check into the availability of a Server version of Lion OS X 10.7.5
or if the computer you have shipped with Snow Leopard 10.6, there should be one still
available from the Apple store or online main store's operating system specialists...
You'd need to check on availability or ask to talk to someone about it. The main Apple
page store phone number should be able to direct you to an OS Specialist.
The Snow Leopard version was better for some users with old hardware since it was
available on DVDs and so a Server setup could be maintained or backups made
ahead of need (extra backup clones or replacement pre-installed or RAID array) to
continue use of a computer 24/7 as a Server. As such, the setup would be different
than with a basic computer sharing files locally; a wireless Time Capsule or other
wi-fi network may be utilized to share an internet connection and files between a
group of authorized computers or supported devices. An older OS X may not be able
to support newer iDevices, so the specifications of those may need to be checked into.
For some, the use of a Mini Mac that can be set up without a display as a server, once
it is running, is a minimalist situation. There should be several archives of Support info
on how to do all of these kinds of things in the Apple Support online database.
The suggestion above is a good start on a feel of basic settings to configure a shared
server; the actual software version for Servers covers more to a higher level of use.
And it may not be necessary for a home network.
Good luck & happy computing!

Can I turn my old PB intoa wireless iTunes server?

I'm putting a PB G3 Pismo out to pasture and wondering if there's a way to use it as an iTunes server in my home? I have one of the original Airport Base Stations, a PB G4 and getting a MacBook.
My wife complains that all the music I purchase is on my PB and she can't access it without me burning a disk. Any way we can use this old PB to both access the same music files through separate iTune programs?
Thanks,
Bob

I suspect unless he had some items in iCloud backup then they are gone. Connecting an iPhone to a different library from that to which it was previously connected will result in the device asking if you want to erase it.

How can i turn a photoshop file into a website with knowing code? can i upload Muse or DreamWeaver?

How can i turn a photoshop file into a website with knowing code? can i upload Muse or DreamWeaver?
I created a few images (pages for a site) on photoshop and want to turn them into HTML code for a website- Can i Just upload the file into one of these programs and make a file with the correct code imediatly?
I was reading about using EDGE Reform but i did not understand if i can create the code with it, in the end it says it still needs to be sent to website developer after?

You need to look at Dreamweaver as a code editor. You need to learn to create good, clean HTML code with style sheets to make websites with Dreamweaver.
There are tutorials that will take you from a layered .PSD file to HTML. Here's a good one:
http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/site-builds/from-psd-to-html-building-a-set-of-website-d esigns-step-by-step/
Adobe's Muse is a semi-WYSIWYG website layout creator for small websites (1-5 pages). But there is no way you can go from a .PDS file to Muse, you have to start the site in Muse.
I have seen a few Muse sites and they're OK, but there is some code that Muse creates that is kind of odd. If you want a good, clean website that will work for you or your business, Dreamweaver is the best choice. Alternatively, you could hire a pro.

How can I turn garage band files into mp3s?

On my older Macbook i have always been able to easily turn my .band files into mp3s under the Advanced heading in itunes, but with my Macbook Pro, that is not an option. The option has become "Create AAC version". How can I turn my .band files into mp3s so that I can load them onto my web page and my students can pick them up as mp3s and put them on their devices?

The option has become "Create AAC version".
Your iTunes importing preferences are currently set to AAC. If you change your Importing preferences to mp3, the option should then become "Create mp3 version". See the following document for some more details:

Converting a BEFW11S4 V.2 router to a wireless access point. Can it be done?

I recently upgraded my home wireless router to an N device. Now, I'd like to use my old B wireless router as an access point to improve coverage on my property. I'd like to place it in a location in my house too distant from the N router to connect it with a cable. Any way to configure the old B router as a wireless access point?
Thanks for any help you can give me.
Dave

yes..u can certainly configure the router as an AP ... follow the steps below :
1)connect the B-router's port 1 to once of the LAN ports of the N-router
2)access the B-router's web ui , using its ip address
3)configure the wireless settings....in case , you want to make a roaming wireless network , the wireless settings on both the router should be same
4)if the ip add of the N-router is 192.168.1.1 , then change the ip add of the B-router to 192.168.1.2 and disable its DHCP server ..
