DIY Wireless Repeater

I have a couple DD-WRT routers laying around the house and one actually came in handy.

I used the instructions here to make a wireless repeater.  It worked great!  I was up and running in under 5 minutes, probably even less.

This is something I've always wanted to do and thought that it should be pretty easy (and it was), though I'm sure most routers won't do it straight out of the box.

The hardest part by far is to get DD-WRT onto your router.  The newer ones are easy, but I had a couple old models that required the Micro Generic version telnetted old school style.
