Hello
I have a THOMSON 739 router with Wifi that provides internet access.
I would like to connect a wired lan that has no internet access using a WHR-G300N over WIFI.
Wired connection between the THOMSON router and the WHR is not an option.
Is this possible?
I could not find a way to do it in the WHR configuration.
Would I be able to access the "bridged" network using a wifi laptop, using the WHR or do I need an additional device/router?
The wired network has several shares and multimedia devices that I would like to access using all of my PC's.
The THOMSON just provides internet access and I have nothing connected to it.
Regards
Hello
Yes the unit supports WDS.
Below is the complete specification TG787 not TG739 - my mistake)
Exactly what do I need to do on the WHR?
I also have a small wifi router in the wired lan to obtain DHCP and wifi access to it.
Should I keep it after connecting the WHR?

Hello
The link provides information that do not match the web page configuration of the WHR.
I can see the WHR on the other AP using WDS but I'm missing instructions to finalize the setup of the WHR.
