Here is what i own :

NETGEAR MR814 802.11b Cable/DSL Wireless Router
NETGEAR RP614 4-Port Cable/DSL Router with 10/100 Mbps Switch
BELKIN F5D6130 802.11b Wireless Network Access Point
BELKIN F5D6020 802.11b Wireless Notebook Network Card PCMCIA


I have my internet from cable and i connect it through the NETGEAR RP614
4-Port Cable/DSL Router with 10/100 Mbps Switch and then through
BELKIN F5D6130 802.11b Wireless Network Access Point. This way, i
can use my laptop using my wireless card.

The thing is that i want to use another desktop computer in another room
without using another wireless card (PCI or USB). I would like to use my
NETGEAR MR814 802.11b Cable/DSL Wireless Router to connect my desktop
computer using a wire. The thing is, the internet is on my BELKIN
F5D6130 802.11b Wireless Network Access Point and i need it to be on my
NETGEAR MR814 802.11b Cable/DSL Wireless Router. So, my problem is to
connect 2 access points.

I need to know more about how to do this and how to configure my routers
to works this out.

If you need more info, please reply.

If you already have a wireless router, why do you also need an accesspoint
connected to the wireless router? The wireless router alone will give your
notebook wireless Internet access. See if the accesspoint can operate in
Client Mode. If so, connect it to the desktop via wire to the desktop's NIC,
set it for client mode operation and you should be able to access the
wireless router from both laptop and desktop.

So if I set my BELKIN F5D6130 802.11b Wireless Network Access Point in
Client mode and connect it via wire to my desktop, it should communicate with my
wireless router ? Does I need to specify an IP adress specifically for my access
point ?

I just want to connect my desktop computer in another room without having to buy
a PCI wireless card and instead to use my Belkin access point.
