    Turn router into wireless bridge

    If you really want to turn your wireless router into wireless bridge then you need to attach one computer using a cat 5 cable to wireless router port and at the same time make sure that this computer is set to receive an automatic IP address from the wireless router's of DHCP server. Now you need to login to the wireless router using the computer that is connected to it and then configure your router and then you can leave empty for WAN configuration in the wireless router. then set the LAN IP address of wireless router so it is compatible with your existing network. Now turn off the DHCP server on the wireless router. Now connect your cat 5 cable to your LAN port or the existing router and LAN port of your new wireless access point. On my netgear 802.11b wireless router turned wireless access point, I use a straight through cable without any problems.
