I wrestled with this for a while at my place.  My linksys wired router does
the dhcp etc, and I wanted my belkin wireless router to do the bridging, so
everything was on the same network.

Here is the link from TomsHardware that got me going in the right direction.

My wireless router has an access-point-only function, but I could _not_ get
it to work correctly.  This info from tomshw did the trick in 15 mins.
