Thank you very much. I looked at my admin panel and found I could indeed set the IP address of the router to other than 192.....1 and can change starting IP addresses. I sued to read this stuff about using WRT-DD firmware upgrades, setting router as a bridge and all that jazz. No need to get a router made as an AP or Bridge or whatever you want to call it. You set me straight on this about daisy-chaining.
I thank you much Excellent.
Thanks Patty
I suggest that if you get a Linksys WRT54G, spend the extra money and get the GL. The newer versions of the plain G are worse and worse. The antenna is not replacable anymore except on the GL.
The GL will work much better for switching over to DD-WRT if you ever decide to do that.
As for using routers as AP, most any will do that, not just the Linksys. See:
