Can someone please tell me how to bridge?aparently that would let the two routers share connection..
 
OK last thing i can say is ..

2 routers ..identical..
one is connected dsl/pc(main)
the other router(second) is in the other side of my house which i would like to be a repeater..if possible

I dont want to connect them via cable..

thnx
 
If you'd like to use it as a repeater, then setup both to use WDS.

Please just take note that WDS is brand-specific, so do not try to use WDS across different brands. Luckily you have the same model.
 
So they can be a reapeter..Greate!!

Can you please explain how i do it?

Model is a D-link dsl-2750U router from telkom..
 
You can read up on page 89 of the user manual: ftp://ftp.dlink-me.com/DLink_ME/ADSL/DSL-2750U/DSL-2750U_Manual_ME_1.00_20110302.pdf

I haven't configured WDS on a D-Link router/modem before, so I can't tell you for sure how to do it.
My guess would be:

On the ADSL side:
AP Mode = Access Point
Bridge Restrict: Disabled

On the other side:
AP Mode = Wireless Bridge
Bridge Restrict: Disabled

Once you have it working, you can enable (scan) bridge restricting on both.
