Default Setting up wifi with 1 router and 2 ap's, but how?

Hi,

i'm trying to set up a wireless network with a Linksys WRT54GS router and 2 Linksys WAP54G access points.

The router is in the office. AP 1 is on the roof, attached to an omni antenna. AP 2 is at our remote location, attached to a parabolic antenna.
AP 1 is set up as "AP Client" with the router mac address and I have connection between router and AP 1. But how do I have to configure AP 2 so that we can have internet at our remote location? Do I need "AP Client", "wireless repeater" or "wireless bridge"?

Help appreciated.

Edwin

Set up both AP1 and AP2 as a wireless bridge. Using them in access point to client mode will cause problems.
