I've got a Draytek Vigor 2600VG and bought a Linksys WAP54g to set up a
wireless bridge to the non-wireless Kiss dvd player (in the living room
which doesnt have Cat-5 to it). I couldnt get the two of them
communicating,
despite turning off all sorts of security and fiddling with endless amounts
of wireless settings.
To be fair, the Linksys manual did say that it only works in wireless
bridge
mode with other Linksys devices.
