Can anybody tell me if any of the Linksys wireless products support RFC 1542
(bootp) forwarding of DHCP requests? I have searched all the user guides and
the LS site, but couldn't find any references.

Thanks,
JR

I have a pair of WAP54Gs, they bridge ethernet.
Even in AP mode, they're still functionally bridging your client to the network.

Basic networking, it's a layers thing; and to be expected for all 'access point' products
at a consumer level.

Being merely ethernet bridges, they're not particularly "aware" of IP in the sense required
for BOOTP RELAYing.

Also, The Spanish Advisor (manuel) makes *no mention* of such IP related things as BOOTP
RELAY.

Enjoy,
Phil P

I'll buy that for the WAP, but what about the routers?
