I have two Linksys wireless routers.
The FIRST is a WRT100 that is connected to the Cable modem.
With a LAN IP of 192.168.251.1 and DHCP turned on (range
192.168.251.100 to 149).
The second is a WRT54G.
With a LAN IP of 192.168.251.7 and DHCP turned on (range
192.168.251.200 to 149).
I would like to setup the WRT54G on the network and utilize its
wireless capability to provide a wireless access point. I have a CAT5
connection available at the remote end to connect back to the WRT100.
How can I configure the WRT54G to accomplish this?
Just turn off the DHCP server in the WRT54G, and cable the two together, lan-port to lan-port. Keep them both in the same subnet (as you already have).
To make life easier, configure the two with different SSIDs and channels.
I use an SMC8204 and a WGR614 in this way. WinXP manages to swap between the two as I walk about the house and garden, with no ill effects.
