            off the top of my head I think there's a tick-box in the gt's web interface you need to tick to allow use as an access point....don't have mine connected (it's only a spare to play with) so can't check right now.........Gettin' There, Wherever There is......
I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple

yes, or any other computer via an ethernet cable, so you can access the netgear's web interface to set it up as an access point. (obviously if using the one that's currently connected to the thomson, you'll have to disconnect the thomson from the pc first)......Gettin' There, Wherever There is......
