I'm in the process of setting up a solution that will hopefully help me pull in WiFi signals better when in campgrounds with WiFi service. My plan is to use a TP-Link TL-WA500G in Client Mode to connect to the campground's WiFi, then connect a Linksys router running DD-WRT via ethernet to the TP-Link and allow my wireless devices Internet access via the Linksys router. The picture I attached should describe what I am trying to do.
I can get the TP-Link to connect to the WiFi (verified in the TP-Link config page), but I can't seem to get the Linksys router to provide Internet connectivity to my wireless devices. How should the TP-Link and Linksys be configured? Should DHCP be done on one or the other (or both)? Should the output of the TP-Link go to the WAN port of the router or the LAN port? What should I identify as the gateway?
Any help you can provide would be very much appreciated!
Thanks,
Dan
