I hope someone can help here as I am a relative novice at this.

Here is my layout..

PC1 and NAS1 connect to each other via a LinksysWRT54G-1 (Wired), PC1 Also
has a 802.11g USB adapter

PC2 and PC3 connect to each other via WRT54G-2 (Wired), this also enables
them to see PC1, WRT54G-2 is also connected to my cable modem.

PC2 & PC3 cannot see NAS1 however since it is only hardwired into the AP
(i.e. it does not have an 802.11 adapter.

I need PC2 & PC3 to be able to access NAS1, while also insuring that PC1
only connects to NAS1 via the wired connection and connects to the internet
via WRT54G-2.

Any thoughts.

I tried a bridge on XP but that really screwed things up.

I think I just need to connect the to wrt54Gs and insure that PC1 only
connects to the AP that is connected to the cable modem.
But I am not sure how I get the two AP's to 'connect'
