Hello.
I have at home WL500gP (oleg fw 1.9.2.7-7g) and I have configured it to Corbina VPN connection. 3PC's use this Internet connection via Wireless successful.
Now I have bought WL500gp V2 (have just upgraded firmware to 1.9.2.7-d-r1000) and Motorola VIP1200 - iptv receiver.
So now I want to configure WL500gp V2 connect to the WL500gP to get Internet and share it to users and connect motorola to this Router.
Is it possible? Help me to configure all together.
In the future I want to connect USB printer HP LaserJet P1005 and USB HDD Western Digital 320 Gb to the WL500gp V2
Thank you! You can answer in Russian and English.

Is it ok?
When I try to connect My NoteBook to the Lan port 1 (via cable) I didn`t get an IP settings automatically, I type IP manually then I can connect to the Router but only to it (192.168.1.2) not 192.168.1.1.
What is the problem?
There is a slight misconfiguration if you ask me: you've configured 192.168.1.1 as Accesspoint, yet you have made it the default gateway for 192.168.1.2; I think that may be inconsistent. [Edit: my mistake, you have Gateway mode, perhaps you should try Gateway mode for 192.168.1.2 as well].
In addition, the 2 routers seem to be disconnected. Can you check if you have entered the correct settings for WDS? You must specify the exact same SSID, channel#, encryption protocol & key in both routers. You must also specify the correct LAN MAC addresses of each router.
It's probably also best for now to disable the MAC address filter, first get the WDS to work, then add layers of complexity if you wish to do so.
P.S. in case you hadn't seen it yet, this WDS Howto should be helpful.

I changed the Bridge settings from [AP Mode: Hybrid] to [AP Mode: AP only] on the both devices and now it`s work fine!
Also I connected HP LaserJet 1005 Printer and it`s work good too.
Now I want to connect HDD and install BTorrent client.
Should I format HD to Fat32 or another format?
What is the best Btorrent client with Web interface?
OK well done.
If you're going to download stuff to that disk it may very well be a movie, so you'll need a filesystem that can handle files larger than 4GB, so I'd recommend that you use ext3 filesystem and install an ext2 utility on your pc to be able to read/write the disk from Windows if needed. If you plan to only access it via the network, then you won't need such a utility.
P.S. I can't tell you which BT client to use, I don't use BT.
