[QUOTE="kper99, post: 910533, member: 122062"] Thanks for the reply but that's not what I'm trying to accomplish. I need to get the TV/DVD attached to the internet. These units can only connect via ethernet, no wireless capability for either. It is impractical to run an ethernet connection from the location of the DSL modem all the way to the TV/DVD, I want to do this wirelessly. I have the Linksys wireless router which is not in use. I would like to put it to use as a wireless bridge/repeater (whatever the correct terminology is) so the TV/DVD can connect to the internet. I would like it to pick up the wireless Airport signal and then send that signal through it's wired ethernet router connection to the TV/DVD. I would be able to place the Linksys router next to the TV/DVD. Again, I'm trying to determine the correct software setup for iMac Airport and Linksys WRT54g so they can talk to eachother. Thanks.
