I guess the wireless client bridges that can connect more than one MAC
address are the ones that tend to be proprietary (so you would be
better off connecting to an access point of the same brand)? Or are
those the transparent bridges that need to be the same brand/model on
either side?

Anyway, depending on the answer I am now down to looking for a wireless
client bridge that can handle multiple MAC addresses or a single MAC
address and have the following requirements:

- 802.11b/g, and hopefully also 802.11a
- external antenna connector

The WRT54G does have an RP-TNC external antenna connector:

The WGA54AG does both 802.11g and 802.11a, but I think the antenna does
not come off.

Any other options?
