client mode so i could put it on my house-roof. Is there a way to flash this

That doesn't appear to be a mainstream device. Bite the bullet an buy a
$70 or so Linksys WAP54G Access Point and select client mode operation.

The Benq does not appear to have a client mode, nor, it seems, does it
do WPA security. Though it does support Radius... If you can return
it, do so. There are others that do more and are cheap enough.

The ASUS routers have USB ports and support DD-WRT firmware which
adds many many functions, including AP, Client Bridge, Bridge
Repeater,WDS etc. Also Tomato firmware works on it and is said to be
very simple and reliable as a router, client or AP.

Return the Benq or keep it as an AP someplace that doesn't need
effective security.
