[MLB-WIRELESS] Dlink 713's as routers, not NAT devices...

ok, a quick rundown on what I'm trying to get working.... The wifi link consists of 2 x Dlink 900AP+'s in bridge mode, each house has a Dlink 713 for print server, DHCP, and local wifi access...

The idea is to go LAN -> 713 -> 900AP+ bridge -> 713 -> LAN....

now hopefully, I can use the WAN port on the dlink 713's, and have a subnet of 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.252 between them... I'm assuming that the 900AP+'s in bridge mode, will just pass over whatever comes into the ethernet port to the other end....

So on an IP level, we have:

LAN 10.1.1.x ->
713 WAN port (192.168.0.1/255.255.255.252) ->
900AP+ bridge ->
713 WAN port (192.168.0.2/255.255.255.252) ->
LAN 10.1.2.x

now my question is this.... can I use the WAN port on the 713 to be used as a router, and not enable NAT over that port???
