Hey all...

This might be one of those that just can't be done...

Ok... I have a DLink 451 (HSDPA hotspot wireless router) that I have
setup as 192.168.1.1 w/ DHCP off (all the computers have set IPs). I
also have a ancient linksys befw11s4 wireless. In a perfect world I want
to have the linksys act as an AP for the printer (yes it is networkable)
and the dlink connect to the world. All of the computers would connect
via the dlink, but be able to print by sending via cups to 192.168.1.1/2

Now I found a couple of ideas on how to do it: I set the linksys to
192.168.1.2, both the routers are on channel 1. One place I've run into
problems is that the howtos I've found all say that the essid's have to
be different. So say, the dlink's essid is route1, and linksys is
route2. The problem with this is the network card setup requires an
essid in order to use WEP. If I use route1 then it can't see route2.

The easiest way to do it is to buy a second wireless card and set the
linksys as 192.168.0.1, but I would rather get it to work without the
this way.

Any ideas be appreciated...
