I am a network N00B, so break out the crayons.
I heard that you can setup a WRT54G as a repeater using DD-WRT. Can someone post me a link explaining how this works and is this what I need?
Here is what I need to accomplish:
My home has a wired and wireless network with internet access, I have a mother-in-law quarters out in the backyard. The Quarters has it's own wired network (computers are connected thru a befsr81 router), but no internet access. I want to give the quarters' network access to my internet without running a ethernet cable to it. Is a repeater what I need?
The mother-in-law house is currently setup as a recording studio.

Links are in the peacock announcement. Read it. You want repeater or repeater bridge, depending on how much you wish to isolate the mother in lan. _________________ Warning: I'm "out of my element!"

Well something called "PEACOCK ANNOUNCEMENT" does not sound like anything that I need to read, but after finding it, that is exactly where I need to start. Let me do some reading there and I'll get back with you guys tomorrow. Thanks kindly!
