DI-624+ and DSL-G604T on the same subnetwork

Hi

I have a wired linux machine connected to the wireless router DI-624+. Then I have a wireless ADSL router DSL-G604T which I wan't to be on the same subnetwork as the rest of the computers sharing it's network connection. Is this possible?

My Network:
Can I create this network with these routers? Before I had an ADSL USB modem connected to the PC but I got tired of always having the PC on and finding linux drivers for the modem. I cannot get the DSL-604T and DI-624T to work together.

I have the DSL-G604T wireless router in one room and the Wireless router DI-624+ in another. To both of them I have sometimes wired clients and I need them to be on the same network. The DSL-G604T has bridge functionallity which might be an option to bridge the computers which are connected to the DSL-G604T.

Here is a picture of my (wanted) network: http://img389.imageshack.us/img389/1116/homenetworkreal5ee.gif
 
Being that both of these have 4 port switches on it you can do it (wired). Unless you want to connect them wirelessly then they would need to be able to bridge (which I don't think both of them do).

Description:

WAN/DSL connection -> DSL-604T (connected to the WAN port)

DSL-604T (one of the LAN ports on the switch) -> DI-624T (one of the LAN ports)

You won't use the WAN port at all on the DI-624, you will just bridge the LANs on the 2 devices. The DI-624 also shouldn't be doing DHCP, that will be handled by the DSL-604T. This worked just fine at my house, and the wireless on the second router was still able to get IP's via DHCP from the first router.


 
Hi!

thanks for the reply. The whole thing is that I want to do this wireless because I don't like cables.

Any other idea?
