    Two repeaters on same network?

    I *was* using WDS with DD-WRT on old 2.4G routers. DD-WRT is not well supported anymore and ASUS and Merlin seem to do a much better job keeping up the ASUS firmware, so I upgraded my hardware to ASUS with dual band. However the ASUS or Merlin software can only do WDS if you use WEP security...
