WPN824 and WGR614 - can I do a wireless bridge?

[matthew1429]

I have a desktop that chops every time I put a wireless card in it, so it's not connected to my wireless internet/network. I have a netgear wgr614 and and just bought a netgear wpn824.

Is there any way I can hook my desktop that's left out of the mix to a wireless router through ethernet and configure that router to act as a wireless adapter which hops on the wireless network?

I should also state that I currently have the same SSID for both routers, same channel, and different ip addresses (192.168.1.1/192.168.1.99)

DHCP disabled on the one connected to laptop

WPASK encryption enabled

thank you for trying to help. I've been there. I'm trying to avoid a cable as it's not feasible, hence the title.

Does everyone concur that there is no other alternative?
