Default Re: Wireless Network Help

So... You have a router, connected to your modem. You want to put your ethernet bridge near the edge of that routers range. Then you have another router, just connected to a computer, with no modem. You want that 2nd router to connect to the bridge in order to be on router 1's network and use that internet?

I believe you'd have to set the bridge to ad-hoc mode, it will pick up the signal from router 1 and be connected. Then just use windows to find the network, which will be through the bridge. Yeah...I think that'll work, try it!

But...isnt the wet11 802.11a/b? And I think I read something about a cantenna?! I'm almost positive your speeds will suck. What kind of range are you trying to cover?

You could sell your 2 routers, the bridge and pick up a Belkin Pre-N wireless router. I think that covers 250,000 sq ft, over the 40,000 sq ft a linksys wireless G router covers. It's only like $80, think about it!
