This has been asked several times recently. No the T3200 and the Wifi Hub cannot operate as APs. They will function as routers and there is no way to change that. If you did try use it as an AP, it would end up having double NAT and the Xbox will not be happy with that. You're better off just buying an AP. They're not that expensive if you go with Wifi 5. One example is only $40. The Wifi 6 version is $90.

Thank you for the quick response. Good to have a clear answer. I wanted to use the trash can as the wifi coverage is better inside my house, but for some reason my xbox just wont connect to it over LAN, guess I will just go back to the T3200 and buy an AP. Thank you Nighthawk
