I need some help connecting a Linksys wireless router to an existing Linksys VPN router as an access point. I want to use the wireless router as just an AP (not router) on my existing network through the VPN router. How should I hook this up to make it work?

Thanks for the help…
 
I have a similar problem to the original post.

I checked out the web site above but didnt find anything that helped.

All the instructions I find on setting up the wireless base stations concentrate on Internet connection sharing. I have an existing ethernet network (Win2K domain) and I want to add a wireless base station just to get notebooks and handhelds on the existing network. I want to plug the base station into an existing ethernet switch and have it behave like any other switch/hub on my network...

can anyone recommend any faqs/tutorials that would help?

thanks
