Linksys WRE54G extending WAG54G (UK)??

Hmmm - I have seen conflicting reports about whether this is do-able,
but has anyone in the UK successfully extended a WAG54G's range using
the newish WRE54G Range-Extender unit please?

Also - I have seen some peeps advise (if it can be done) to use
identical SSID to enable seamless 'hand-off' roaming between units
(ie. at either end of a property), whereas others advise to use
similar but *distinct* SSIDs to allow one to 'force' client to connect
to either unit...yea/nay?

TIA,
Aitch
