Check the archives. There was a long thread on this about a month ago. Tom -- Tom Taylor Linux user #263467 Federal Way, WA
Your problem is not Linux or Fedora specific. Search the manufacturers' sites to see if either of your models supports use as a relay. You can also check http://openwrt.org to see if they have firmware for your router that provides this feature. If nothing else buy a wireless range expander, e.g. Linksys WRE54G.
