I think I've gotten my Linksys WRT54GL wireless router to bridge to my first generation Apple Airport. After many failed attempts. I'm going to write down what the config looks like before I screw something up.

Wireless mode: client bridge
network: B-only
ssid: ahub
operating mode: gateway

I have a laptop connected to the linksys by wire. The laptop has a static IP config on the same subnet as the linksys. I can now ping through the linksys, through the airport, to other machines on the local network. Now, I need to see if I can get a DHCP connection to work.

It appears that connections will seemlessly migrate between the two routers depending upon wireless signal strength. But DHCP is not working. I can see the laptop sending the dhcp request. I can see the server getting the request. I can see the server sending the response, but the laptop either does not get the request or ignores it.

Maybe there is some hidden firewall in osx that I haven't found yet.
