WiFi Ethernet Bridge

lordy

Hi all,

I am currently using DLAN/Powerline to connect from the cable modem to the router which are in two different rooms in the basement, Unfortunately the performance is rather bad (limited to 10 MBit/s) and it seems that there is some packet-loss that leads to problems with VoIP.

I am now thinking about replacing this solution with two wireless ethernet bridges as I cannot run a cable. Do you have any recommendations? I would prefer something WPA encrypted with a rather simple setup. All I need is a simple bridge that connects these two ethernet segments.

Regards,
Lordy

I set up a bridge at home, but it's primarily to extend my wireless range so the neighbors can use it too. I'd suggest a couple cheap (<$50) wireless routers, and flash them with ddwrt firmware. Not exactly simple, but it took me about an hour from opening the package to being live on both routers.
