networking expertise needed for robot camera (adding an additional router to an existing network)
#6
It's easiest if your routers support WDS (Wireless Distribution System) which makes bridging simple -- well kinda simple. Most routers don't support it, but DD-WRT does if you've got routers you can flash with it. Most Buffalo routers do support it and I've got three running in WDS bridge mode right now. Trouble is, the makers rarely tell you anywhere that they do support it. I don't know why it's a big deal -- are they thinking no one uses it, so they have it but won't tell you they do? I know this isn't much help, but it's what I know, which ain't much. BTW, I think the Apple Extreme products do support WDS...
