Re: using WRT54G as a bridge to another WRT54G

I just want to report that I am finally able to get my WRT54G in client mode to work with my BEFW11S4. The client WRT is setup based on the guide »homepage.ntlworld.com/linksysinf···UIDE.pdf. The problem I had appears to be due to the use of wireless MAC filtering on the BEFW11S4. For some reason, even adding the MAC addresses of the client WRT and the attached PC to the filter list did not work, but disabling the wireless MAC filtering entirely and then power-cycling the BEFW11S4 did it.

I'm been trying to get my new WRT54G running Satori-4.0 to be a client to my old BEFW11S4 without much success. I was able to ping the BEFW11S4 from a PC which is wired to the WRT54G for just a short period of a minute or so during the course of hours of fiddling.

Can someone who has succedeed in using a WRT54G client with another non-WRT54G wireless router post the client setup configuration and procedure?

Thanks.

with Satori in client mode, only 1 device is allowed to be connected that unit. If you add more it won't work properly.
This is a big limitation IMHO, any workaround for it?

The client mode of Samahdi and Satori are pretty much the same, Alchemy does thing differently. With Alchemy, the wireless interface becomes the WAN interface of the router. This allows multiple clients to be connected to the client mode WRT (on their own subnet).
This sounds interesting. Will I still be able to use two WRT54G/WRT54GS boxes to create an ethernet (wifi) bridge between two LANs using the same network (e.g. 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0) on both sides of the bridge.

Any ETA about the Alchemy public release?

Thanks a lot.
