Then you have two possibilities. Either use WDS or STA (Wireless
client support) in FreeWRT to connect both AP via Wireless. WDS is
not really a standard AFAIK, so it might be more problematic to
setup a WDS link between a FreeWRT and a non-FreeWRT box. Or even
between different models we have not a lot of experience.
So configure your FreeWRT box as WLAN client in sta mode.

Then either report a bug or sent a patch :}

Failsafe is the preferred mode to fix the embedded device in such situations.
