Just giving you general knowledge since i dont know the UI of those 2 devices. The usr needs to be setup as an AP or client and have the same ssid as the main WAP. Hope that helps.

Well, I do know of this: http://dd-wrt.com
Their firmware is supposed to have the ability to use your router as a receiver, and other things. Not sure of all it does, but you could read about it.

I dont believe he can use that on the USR... the cisco perhaps.

Alright. Going to try it myself soon on my Linksys WRT54G.
