hmm i have a setup similar to yours where i have a G router as my
gateway (asante) and
then at the other corner of the house i have a B router but the cat5e
cable is connected
as a client on the switch and not on the wan port. on my ibook i can
change APs in the middle of
a file transfer and it switches perfectly without disturbing connections

maybe its a xp thing? also make sure you do not connect the the
ethernet cable to the second router's
wan port




question though, does anyone know if its normal to have crappy 802.11g
signal from a router that is 1 floor/1 wall away?
