well sitting bull, here's the long and short about the RG-1xxx Lucent
devices. I've used a lot of them with converted Karlnet Software as
CPE (client side devices) in WISP situations.
The OEM non coverted RG-1xxx is a residental gateway device,,
ie it acts like an ACCESS POINT or ROUTER in it's vigin mode from
lucent.
THE LONG ANSWER----------------------------------------
WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH IT
Set the AP channel (frequency)
Set one 5 character ASCII Encryption key (40 bit encryption only)
WHAT YOU CAN'T DO WITH IT
Set the AP Name, Group name, ESS-ID (same as "SSID", or "Service
Area")
Set the AP bit rate
Set a Hex Encryption key
allow/disallow clients by MAC address
Setup packet filters
Set the DTIM Beacon interval to control client power saving.
Get any network statistics
Run any RG diagnostics
Force a modem connect and disconnect
Force a DHCP lease release / renew
THE SHORT ANSWER-----------------------------------------
The short of it is,,,, Access points can't take to each other, all
they can do is interfer with each other...
If you load the Karlnet Bins in the access points you can turn two of
them into a Wireless Bridge, but not in the virgin configuration.
The Karlnet Bins can be purchased from winncom for about $100.00
for each device

So,, you have got two access points that won't take to each other, but
could talk to a client device IE: wireless card, minipci radio, etc.
