125pts: Wireless Network Issue - Netgear DI-624s
Hi all,
I have a Netgear DI-624s which I am trying to set up with access to an existing wireless network ("generic" SVEC FD2463 802.11b wireless router connected to my DHCP & Web-proxy server). (The purpose is to connect a network upstairs [2 PC's] with another network downstairs [1 PC + USB storage drive])
DLink DI-624s : http://www.dlink.com/products/?pid=390
SVEC FD2163 : Unable to source technical details from internet - suspect company has gone bust.
I can connect to both wireless routers independantly to each other, and i've set up the DI-624s with the same SSID and WEP key as the existing wireless network. I believe i'm having an issue because i'm trying to connect a G wireless network device with a B wireless network. Although the DI-624s says it's backwards compatible with 802.11b, I wonder if that's only in the sense of the devices connecting directly to it ?
I guess i'm just after verification and justification to upgrading my upstairs SVEC "no name brand" wireless router to an all-in-one DLink DSL-G604T... :) (EDIT- DLink DSL-G604T : http://www.dlink.com/products/?pid=372)

I have a small 4 port 10/100 switch, that i can set up instead if need be and just use a wireless access point... would that work?
Does anyone know if you can route/bridge a DLink 108G network via a single access point?
