I run a neighborhood network and so far my clients are single PC's so the chain of devices is...
WAN - Router - WAP - Client Bridge - Client PC My router assigns the IP address to the Client PC via DHCP. Everybody is in the same subnet. Works fine. Some neighbors would like to have a wireless bridge to their existing home network, so the chain of devices is... WAN - Router - WAP - Client Bridge - Client Router - Client PC Some questions about getting this to work... 1) Can the client router have its own subnet? 2) How do I tell my router (a Linksys BEFSR81) to route packets via the client router? 3) Can the client router get its dynamic IP address from my router's DHCP? (I think #2 above make this an oxymoron.) 4) Can the WAP (a D-Link DWL-900AP+) and the client router have only fixed IP addresses?
