I'm connected to a wireless router which is set up as a bridge, and it's connecting wirelessly to another wirleess router. But that wireless router is set up as a switch/access point only, and is connected wired to another router. Why? this lets me move my games to friends houses who don't have wireless. I'll have to adjust a few things, but basically I'll be able to use two routers to have a wireless network within the actual network, and I won't have to mess with my friends routers at all. Now I'll test some gaming, but this should work flawlessly. Edited by CapwnD, Oct 22 2009, 11:16 PM.

No, this way I just plug in this access point into his network, and then I can get wireless devices online. One of the wireless devices is another router, which then lets me wirelessly connect wired things.
