I have two D-Link DWL-G700 AP's and want to know if these can be used as a wireless bridge? I kind of inherited them, so the price was right... and want to extend my network.

Will they work as bridges?

Thanks!

Well if it supports WDS it will bridge and repeat in WAP encryption (can be broke in 3 minutes). Only Apple and a few other router bridge and repeat with WPA. You still can do a wireless to ethernet bridge with wpa sometimes. Wish I new if it supported WDS. Give it a shot and see if you find any menus that say anything about it. I couldn't find anything on the router with a quick google.
