What Exactly Do I Need To Do To Convert My Unused Router Into A Wireless Bridge?

Brand new and still in the box.  I do not want to do anything with this router other than make it into a wireless bridge to access my wireless network so that I may physically attach other devices like a TV, receiver, Xbox 360, etc.  What are the EXACT steps?
