To: Peter Pan,
Thanks,
Should I get a Wrt54g or GS instead of perhaps a Wireless AP?

I am a bit dumb when it comes to connecting a router to a router. I
know you can connect an N router to a G router so you have both
signals. But did not know I could plug in the Powerline into my
WRT54GS router and then on other end plug in another router.. thought
it had to be an access point (not sure what diff between an AP and a
router is actually).
And I guess I would have to change the IP of the router so I can
configure both of them when I get second one. How can I change the
login IP of one router from 192.168.1.1 to something else to access
admin panel? I know when you said 192.168.1.200, that is the starting
address I think of the IP's the router hands out...
Thanks
Patty
