Hello all.
I'm trying to bridge two routers together.

Here is my setup.

My modem is connected to a Linksys WRT160N (CA). This router is connected (wired) to my PC that is right by it's side.

In another room, I have another computer that I would like to connect to the WRT160N. I cannot connect it wirelessly directly and would rather not have a 30feet long cable running through the house.

I have another router sitting in the house that is not used. It's a DLINK WBR-2310.

Can I connect that router to my second PC and then somehow bridge the two routers together?

I think your best option is to turn your second WRT into a wireless repeater. This requires some modding on your part. See this thread for more info. Keep us updated!
