    Linksys WRT54GL wireless client bridge

    I was curious if anyone here tried using a WRT54G/L as a wireless client bridge with DD-WRT firmware. Thanks.

    Welcome to Windrivers WEPrechaun

    Personally no I haven't.. but you could explain why you would want to use this setup...

    I'm doing this because it'd allow me to connect multiple desktops without having to buy multiple wireless cards.

    True it would, all you are doing is providing a wireless connection between two routers and then the desktops will be wired to the routers. Saves putting a wires everywhere.

    That's what I thought too. Figured there'd be no need for multilple wi-fi cards when the 2 desktops will be so close to each other. Also, should I need another LAN connectiion for another computer then it'd be there.

    Can you try the WPA54G work as repeater for the WRT54GL ?
