-Verified with DD-WRT v24-sp2 (06/30/09) build 12424 --[[User:Macgyver|Macgyver]] 22:57, 03 July 2009 (CEST)<br>+Depreciated:
-This is a 3 router WDS setup using WRT350N and 2 WRT54G, with the 1st WRT54G connecting to the WRT350N, and the 2nd WRT54G connecting to the 1st WRT54G. I have also tested with WRT600N, WRT310N, WRT300N and WRT54GS, so any broadcom-based device should work with these settings<br>+
-If you only need a 2 router WDS setup, simply ignore the third router setup options; alternately if you need more, just add as needed <br>+
