Not sure what you are asking then. The link you found shows the method that is recommended to solve your issue. If your second router cannot run as a client bridge and you can not change the firmware your only option is to get hardware that can be made to run client-bridge mode.

Have a look at this site:
http://www.dd-wrt.ca/site/index and look at the "Supported Device List"
Depending on the brand of your second router you should be able to turn it into a repeater. You will have to change the firmware on the router but they have some excellent guides to help you. I did a linksys WRT54G and it worked perfectly.
