    Here is what I want to do.

    I have a Linksys Wireless-G Broadband router and a Linksys 4 port router (not wireless). I also have a DLink 1000AP access point. I would like to set my network up so that my wireless router will talk to the access point, and the access point will act as the WAN connection to the regular 4 port hub. Is this type of configuration possible? If so, how would I go about getting it set up correctly?

    What you are trying to do is wireless bridging, and in legacy products was not an option. I doubt you will able to accomplish this.

    To be able to do that I belive you might want something like a wireless adapter for the xbox/ps2. Turn wireless into wired basicly.

    If the DLink 1000AP is not capable of this type of connection then I am screwed with the equipment I have. I am not sure if the latest firmware update allows bridging yet, but I will look it up and see if it can be done.
