I’m sure other wireless network appliances can accomplish this as well but the Asus RT-Nxx series have proven to be rock solid and easy to configure. I have sold and used these devices for over 7 years in commercial and industrial applications to make ethernet compatible printers, copiers, wide format printer, and other digital business equipment Wi-Fi capable. This device is the Asus RT-N12 D1 (N300). The last function is the one we will focus on. We will be doing exactly the same thing except with an off-the-shelf network appliance that costs less than $30 and is 3 devices in 1: A standard wireless router, a dedicated access point, and a wireless bridge/extender.

Many laser engravers have an ethernet port but do not have embedded wireless networking capability.
