How to Bridge from Wifi Hotspot (Mifi) to Wired Connection

Sometimes you will find yourself in a location or area that doesn't have good access to a wired internet connection and what you are doing requires it. I searched the internet for a while to find something that works and was finally  about a product that can do that inexpensively serving as a wireless client. It is the product below and was available from Amazon under $20.


TP-LINK TL-WR702N Wireless N150 Travel Router, Nano Size, Router/AP/Client/Bridge/Repeater Modes, 150Mpbs, USB Powered

Here is an image of the device with the power cord it comes with and a patch cable to demonstrate the size.
When the device boots up it will be initially broadcasting as a wireless router. You can change this to the client network mode and attach it to a mobile hotspot or other wireless network.
