WRT54GS and WDS

Hi,

I have two WRT54GS routers with sveasoft alchemy firmware. I tried to set both up in a WDS link as described here:

formatting link
'Main' WRT connected to the internet in my house and 'Client' WRT connected wirelessly to Main at a neighbor's location.

..... however I'm unable to ping 'Main' from 'Client's LAN ports.

I know that WDS is about forwarding / repeating wirelessly, but wouldn't Client's 'local' wireless connection also be available on its LAN ports?

If not, does it exist any possibility to provide both wired and wireless access to 'Main' at my neighbor's premises with the above hardware and firmware w/o starting to hack with shell scripting?

regards

Tor
