RE: [PLUG] inexpensive wireless bridge (without using a PC)
|
my
only issue is that my wrt is not a linksys, so I hope the WAP54g plays nice with
my D-Link wifi router.
the
WAP54g already been ebayed, I most likely will get it by the weekend (so that
will be my weekend
project). Debateing if it really really requires a WRT54g, whether I want
to shell out for one.

I have
this exact setup, using a WAP54G and a hub to connect a small network to
another small network connected to a WRT54G.
I have the WAP54G set up
in wireless bridge mode, and put in the mac address of the router. I
believe that all you really need is a wireless bridge (WET54G).

ok.
I have one wireless network in one part of the house,
and a small wired
network in another part.
Aside from running a cable from the wired
network to the
wireless router (which is not a realistic option).
How can I inexpensively ($80.00 or less), bridge
these
two networks?
I do NOT want to setup a linux box
with a WAP and NIC and
bridge them (yes, it probably the
easiest, cheapest way,
but it adds one more computer (and
fan) to the mix).
Will the Linksys WAP54G do this?
It says it
will connect wireless devices to your network, but does
that mean it will
connect a wired switch to a wireless
router?
