Hi All,

I have a 2 router network setup, 1 WRTP54G (Vonage Voip enabled router)
and another WRT54G router connected to the first one (wired) and being
used as an access point (i.e Port 1 or WRT54G is connected to port 1 of
WRTP45G and I have supplied a static IP to my WRT54G with my main
router WRTP54G's IP as its Default Gateway). There are two problems
that I face,

1. When I'm connected to the WRT54G (access point) wirelessly, my
connection speed is terrible, I get like 5k/sec download speed and if I
leave my laptop on for the night, when I wake up I've lost connectivity
and it takes ages to get connected again (and at times the internet
doesnt work then)

As a benchmark, if I hook my laptop up directly to the router (WRTP54G)
I get a download speed of about 45k/sec. So the drop is quite huge

2. There are times when it takes ages to connect to the access point
wirelessly from my laptop, and restarting the access point seems to
solve the problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Jatin
