Specifically what Linksys units and version numbers. If an earlier
version on one of them, you could reflash with DDRT and have it act
like a client.

But it would be MUCH easier (plug and play) to simply get a Linksys
WAP54G and run it in client or bridge mode.

Yep, if you can load DD-WRT on the second one it'd work nicely. I've done
it for several units and it works pretty well.

Check the dd-wrt.com website to see if the model you've got will work
properly.
