The problem is that when i set up the wds the ssid is no longer broadcasted. The two routers talk to each other and therefor act as a bridge, but neither routers will broadcast there ssid.
I can see the signal if i use netstumbler, but it shows that there is no ssid on that it sees the signal
I have tried WDS between Fonera and WRT54GL so many times, and they cant even communicate. Seems only two Foneras can be setup in WDS for it to work somewhat.
I have given that up, better solution is client mode with a VAP.
Unfortunately the only WDS related feature that works with the Fonera at this time seems to be WDS AP+WDS Station. It's all fine if all the devices involved in the WDS are Fons, but useless if you're trying to link up with existing routers like the WRT54G.
Yes, WRT54G has broadcom chiipset which doesnt support WDS AP/Station.
Maybe WDS is easier, but then you will have an unencrypted ommunication, which is not preferreble. With a VAP you can have whichever encryption you want.
