cmh0101 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I have 2 Linksys 54G routers flashed with the dd-wrt firmware. I have been using one of them as a bridge to access a wireless connection(with permission). Works great for hooking up wired devices, but what about wireless devices. Can I take my extra router and connect it to my 1st router and make it an access point? I figured that it is possible to probably to connect a cable from a port on the first router to the 2nd routers(access point) WAN port. But no luck so far. This would save me a lot of money if i could take my extra router and just make it a Access Point. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmh0101 Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 Ok, Sorry I figured it out. I just had to simply add the IP address of my 1st router into my 2nd routers config. I wasn't thinking it would be that easy lol. Thanks again for all the help :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
