Milan,

If I correctly understand what you are trying to achieve, you already have
the access point and router combined in the BEFW11SR. If you want a 802.11b
PC connected to your AP and several other PC's connected with CAT 5 cables,
all able to share your DSL modem, just use the BEFW11SR. If you want
everything to talk to the access point with 802.11b then each PC needs a
802.11b client.

Am i missing something?

Regards,
Loren Zemenick

Subject: [BAWUG] extending home wireless network to wired lan


Hi,

I'm having troubles trying to extend my wireless network at home.  I have a
linksys BEFW11S4 as my wireless AP connected to my dsl modem. everything
works fine but now i have a problem because i want to connect two (or more)
computers with only wired interfaces to this network. I would rather get one
wireless device (connected to a switch) that can route wired ethernet rather
than get a wireless interface for each machine. i'm not sure what to call
this device.  so i talked to a dlink guy and he said i needed a repeater. so
i ordered the DWL-900AP+ (with repeater mode) and i tried the repeater but
it didn't work.  of course dlink can't guarrantee d-link to work with
linksys but i took a chance, but no luck.  so before i go any further i
thought i'd post this question.  any ideas?  I'm beginning to think that a
repeater is not what i need. i hope this is appropriate to this list.

thanks,
Milan
