    I'm trying to connect two WRTSL54GS media routers together to share information connected via the hard drives and to share internet.

    Is that at all possible?

    The two routers will be physically connected by rj45 cable, The reason for the two wireless routers is due to the signal strength having to traverse several floors.

    Currently the 2nd router is setup not sharing dhcp and connected through one of the lan ports labelled 1-4. It is sharing internet, but I am unable to view the hard drive connected to it. It is also on a different ip string. The 1st router has 192.168.1.1 and the 2nd 192.168.15.1

    Thank You!
