extending wireless router range questions

I have a linksys bg wireless router at one end of a rather long convoluted
ranch house. I'd like to connect a cat5 cable from the router to a linksys
wap at the other end of the house, so wireless access will be available
throughout. Once the cable is connected, how do I configure the wap. No
encryption is necessary

It's not hard, but I don't feel like doing homework right this
minute.
Why don't you:
1) go to the linksys site and download the instructions for this WAP.
Read it.
2) Go to linksysinfo web site and find a sticky or tutorial for
setting up an AP as ...an AP!



OK. I did your homework a little more. Typing "setup linksys WAP"
into google (something so simple even your average novice could do
it!) yields:

Thanks for the info, I had done some searches, but nothing specific to my
needs turned up. I wasn't aware that Linksys had this specific info on their
site. I assumed that this was more complicated than it is. For what I'm
doing, it's pretty much plug and play. Thanks

That link looks like a photo of the best governor Texas never had, the
one they failed to elect.

I kinda doubt that you are that same cigar chomping musician guy from
camp, um was it Echo Hill ? ... anyway if so, howdy !

Needless to say, everything I do with computers or networking, is plug and

Oh, OK. It's the photo you linked to. Looks like Kinky F. Who
does live in NY at times.
