* try running each on its own channel, 1,6, or 11 vs. both on the same.
* have you checked signal strength? you may want to consider alternative firmware (like sveasoft) to boost the antenna output.
* WDS is used normally here when trying to boost a signal through the same channel. the linksys firmware doesnt do this (not yet i dont beleive). i think they try to get around it by selling "boosting stations".

Marco,
I am tring to connect from Duck to Donald wirelessly. In other word, Donald is an AP Server and Duck is an AP Client. I have this setup using a WAP54g(Router_2) to a D-Link 713P(AP_1). That work fine. The Router_2 is hardwired to a WRT54G(Route_3) that is pointing down to the house. At the house I have another WRT54G(Route_5) pointing to Router_3(Donald).
The problem is that Route_5(Duck) will not come out of AP Server mode. I have verified this with my Laptop by connectly to Router_3.
AP_1 <-Wireless-> Route_2 <-Hardwire-> Router_3 <-Wireless-> Router_5
This one is not working --------------------------^^^^^^^^
I have Route_5 configured as 'Router' in Setup-->Advanced Routing--> Operating Mode. I have tried SSID the same and 'any'. I have upgraded the firmware to '2.04.4'. I'm am missing something but I don't know what it is. The bottom line question is 'How to put a WRT54G into AP CLient mode'.
Thanks for your time.

Hello list,
This is a technical question about the linksys wrt45g. I have two of them
and am trying to connect one to the other as gateway and router. I think
I have them setup correctly but the 'router' will not come out of gateway
mode. I go to setup --> advanced routing and select router in 'operating
mode' box. I have the SSID the same for both. What else do I need to do?
Frimware is the same for both, v2.02.7.
Any help??
