I'm not sure I follow.  I use my WRT54G (with the excellent
v.2 chipset) to receive a WiFi signal and turn it into
ethernet.   I.e., my WRT54G feeds my bastion host (along
with my PLC NIC) which, then, feeds my network.

So, I could put the WRT54G on a 100' CAT5 and extend my
network's geographical coverage by that 100 feet, etc.

What am I not "getting" in this explanation?
