Wireless bridging

Any networking guru's out there that can answer a question for me?

I have a belkin 54g wireless router (F5D7230-4) and a belkin 54g access point (F5D7130).

I'm trying to 'wireless bridge' the 2 together to increase my range but it isn't working.

I have the same channel and ssid for both. I have the same encryption for both 128bit hex WEP The router IP is 192.168.2.1 and the AP IP is 192.168.2.254

I have enabled 'wireless bridging' on the router and I have added in the MAC address of the access point.

If I'm connected to the access point then I can't get anywhere else - ie: it's not getting routed back through the router.

Has anyone got this to work?

Thanks David
