Environment:  Main building with a wired LAN and a wireless access
point.  Remote
building with window in wireless range of the access point in the main
building.  Signal needs to be boosted for reliable connections inside.

Remote requirements:  Wired desktop access to the server in the main
building with Internet only access from wireless laptops

Two box solution:  One router in the remote building as a wireless bridge to
the LAN in the main building.  Wired machines plug into its switch and get
their IP addresses from the DHCP server in the main building.  Second
router,  a wireless access point, with its WAN port plugged into the bridge.
The subnet it establishes has access to the Internet but not the machines in
the main building.

I thought it might be possible to use a single router running DD-WRT to
provide this functionality but I have no been able to figure out how.

Any ideas?

TIA – Joe Yoder
