Extend a network ... ethernet bridge or second WAP?

I'm helping someone setup a wireless network. They already have a
netgear CG814W for their router, and I recommended they get a netgear
ME103 WAP because it said it did "repeating", and we want to extend
the range of the network (some of the machines are outside the range
of the CG814W). However, I finally figured out you need TWO ME103 to
do this. My question is, can I just get a Linksys WET11 (I read that
the Netgear ethernet bridge doesn't work with DHCP) and plug it into
the ME103 with a cat5 cable and use a different channel on the ME103?
So it would look like this:

internet [cat5] CG814W router [wireless channel X] WET11 [cat5] ME103
[wireless channel Y] client too far away from CG814W

Would this work at all? Can you just plug in a wireless ethernet
bridge to a WAP and have it work or is that totally not going to work?
Or do I have to get another ME103 and halve the bandwith?

This is the first wireless network I have worked on, so I am not fully
aware of the way things work...
