There are many other devices that are "clients" that could supply the wifi to a LAN port of your WNR1000 in it's "router as a bridge mode."

I have a arris dg860 modem/router that came with my internet provider. I also have a netgear wnr1000v3 router that I would like to use without running any cables between the two routers. Idealy, I would like to be able to connect to both routers wirelessly. But, I would settle for only being able to connect wirelessly to the main modem/router and just connecting devices with an ethernet cable to the second netgear router. Is this possible? I have done a fair amount of googling and found discussions about "repeaters" and "bridges" but none seem to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated (even if to confirm this is not possible so I don't keep trying). Thanks
