Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way.  As a wireless bridge, it
-receives- wireless signals and can send them on to a device connected
to the LAN port.  In other words, it bridges wireless to wired, not the
other way around.

If you connected it directly to your DSL, it could access
SqueezeNetwork but it could not see your SlimServer.

And as powerful as DD-WRT is, I don't think you can put WAN on the
wireless side.  If you added a WAP it would, but see below.

Here's how you could get it to work, although it would involve making
the SlimServer wireless, which is often a bad idea: put the router at
the DSL port, wire the SB3 to it, get a wireless card for your PC and
get it to connect wirelessly to your router.  That actually might not
be too bad.  Although your SlimServer would be wireless, your SB
wouldn't, so it's still a 1-hop arrangement.  I'd think it would be
worse than wired SlimServer/wireless Squeezebox but it would be better
than having BOTH wireless.
