WRT54G with dd-wrt firmware question

    I have a linksys WRT54G with dd-wrt firmware working nicely. It's in a separate building to my house, connected via a wireless bridge of two WAP54G access points.

    I was wondering if its possible to use the WRT54G as a wireless bridge point, freeing up one of the WAP54Gs. It would be pretty handy if i could.

    I know theres a specific forums for the wtr54g that gives u all new firmware to do pretty much anything you want with it (like a full new OS on the system) but again - cant remember the address offhand

    think i got it working. updated to v23 firmware on the router, set one AP to client mode and now thats working as a wireless bridge with the router. second ap (working as basic ap) connect through a switch to the first, and third ap working as wireless repeater from the second.

    perfect.
