Solve : Linksys wireless router joining?

Answer»

Hi,
I have 2 Linksys WIRELESS Router (WAP54G) in my lab. I want to add second router in my lab so it works fine with all my clients with good signal strength. What should i have to put settings for my 2nd router to joining with 1st router?There is usually an option to allow the 2nd to ACT as a REPEATER. This will be part of the features of one of the routers or may be able to be implemented by flashing a compatible router to DD-WRT and then configuring it to act as one.

I haven't played with this with DD-WRT yet I have my router flashed with DD-WRT for QoS throttling and priority of service for VoIP phone etc. Flashing a router is a irreversable action. Once you blow away the original FLASH with DD-WRT you cant go back to the original without sending the router in to factory for a reflash and most will not cover flashing back to factory default flash as part of a warranty coverage.

If the computers will always be located in a certain area, you can always just run a cat5 cable from the output of one of the routers to the internet in port of the other router and have 2 routers acting as routers both able to support up to 254 devices with 2 unique DHCP pools to operate from. This is the easiest and most reliable method to have other computers communicate wireless as for when adding in a repeater depending on how many people are connected you can have wifi latency, meanwhile if you had 2 routers acting as routers in a daisy chain each router handles its own wifi traffic juggle and the traffic flows through the Cat5 cables out and back from the web. I have this double router set up in my home so that I have 1 wifi network that shuts off by a outlet timer to restrict my daughters internet access hours of operation, but it allows me to have 24/7 wifi for myself and my wife.Hi, I am a newbie. My question has to do with double routers. I have CCTV which is hooked up with my Linsky's router and " Basic setup ". However, I just got a Router/Modem from my Internet Provider . I need to BRIDGE  the two routers inorder to be able to see my camreas when I am outside of my home. But the tech guy who installed my CCTV camreas has move from my area , so I have no way to get in touch with him.
My NEXT issue is that whenever I try to use Internet Explorer on Firefox or Explorer I get " blank page " What should I do? Please help.
P.S.  Both routers are hooked up . I have to manually connect each one whenever I need to check my CCTV recordings.
              Thanks.motherhen,
