What make Access Point &/or WiFi Router are you using? Is it a Linksys?
Can the WRE54G work with non Linksys AP/WiFi Routers?

I am using two different Linksys brand wireless access points/routers in two
separate locations. Both connect with a variety of wireless clients linksys
and non-linksys.

"Can the WRE54G work with non Linksys AP/WiFi Routers?"
YOu would need to explain better what you want to accomplish. They will
definitely interact with other routers and APs via the ethernet ports. But
the Linksys APs I use expect to connect with wireless clients, not other
wireless APs.

Here is a clip from another post of mine:
----------
The Linksys WRE54G Wireless-G Range Expander, will this device work with
a non Linksys Access Point &/or WiFi Router?

I have a situation where I want to piggy back off of a non encrypted
publicly accessable free WiFi access that is provided in the shopping
area of my building.
I don't know the make of the Access Point / WiFi router.
I can get a good signal at the window of my kitchen but rest of place
has no signal, I want to add a repeater such as the WRE54G to get the
signal to the rest of my place. Will this work?

If not any suggestion for a repeater that will?

Thank you.

Any product that uses WDS to perform bridging or repeating will most
likely only work
with products from the same manufacturer. The reason for this is that
the 802.11 standards
left it up to manufacturers to implement WDS without any set methods
to do so.
So buyer beware. There may be some that work with others but why take
the chance.
