I am a previous sveasoft alchemy user on my WRT54G v2 and am now using the DD-WRT v23-SP1 firmware in place of it. So many wonderful new features and stability for me! QoS that actually works!
However I seem to be in a bit of a dilema regarding my Belkin F5D7130 I use for bridging wireless to a different location in the house. I can get WDS to work only if I do not use encryption... the stock Belkin firmware seems very poor for trying to do proper bridging...
Sorry for the long winded question but I want to be sure what I can do before I possibly destroy my hardware. I have had the Belkin AP for about a year now and did not realize it was similar hardware to the Linksys and can run 3rd party firmware...

I got it working! I was able to flash the unit using method #2 on the Wiki, now I have WDS working between the Belkin and the Linksys with WPA encryption! THANK YOU! This was impossible to do before with the factory firmware!
