  WAP11 to WET11: Easy, Cheap Wireless Bridging
Subject:   WET11 through a hub?

I have a BEFW11S4 (linksys wireless router) on one side and a WET11 on the other side, connected to a Win2K PC. Works great. The BEFW11S4 acts as a DHCP server so the Win2k PC gets a dynamic IP address. The WET11 is configured with a static IP.


Now if I connect the WET11 to hub (straight through cable, WET11 in the II position), and the PC to the hub, I can see the LAN light on on the WET11 and both WET11 and PC lights on on the hub, but the PC can't get an IP address. In fact if I do a "ipconfig /renew", after a while the LAN light for PC on the hub goes off.


Any idea what's happenning?
