[Discuss] Router Video connection problem.

[Brij Charan]

actually my linksys is old...with a 3rd party dd-wrt firmware.

Oh I didn't know you could make a bridge that easily.

So by doing this, you can still provide wireless access, but the dlink will
be leasing the iP's to the machines connected to the linksys?

Thanks Lionel! :)
