Okay, here's the story. I have two WiFi APs covering my house, a Netgear MR814 v1 and an MR814 v2. The v1 is perfect, but the v2 has issues. I can't connect through it with any of my Axims unless I disable their power-save mode. That isn't acceptable to me as a long-term solution. Since the v2 works perfectly with my iPaq 4700 and my laptops, I figured it could still be a good AP for somebody else. So, I thought I'd make the offer to trade APs with somebody else who might have a similar problem with their iPaq connecting to their router. Let me know if interested.

I need something that has bridge capability.

It's both. It has an internal router and firewall, 4 port ethernet switch, and provides full cross-communication between wireless, ethernet, and the internet connection. One thing that it doesn't do is connect the ethernet ports to a pre-existing wireless network.
