Default internet connection



I have a wireless network that runs on a linksys BEFW11S4. I have another
network that has internet on it. Is there away to use the internet
connection on the linksys wireless. Other than sharing it threw a computer
and I don't have a bridge. But I do have a D LINK dwl-800ap+ and another
router.
Thanks

Either connect the BEFW11S4 directly to the modem (assuming you have
broadband), or run a Cat5 from your "other" router (which would be hooked to
your internet source) to a port (not the WAN port) of the BEFWx ... it will
then operate as a wireless switch. The other router would then handle the
DHCP and network "stuff."
