Help to Connect THOMSON TG585 and USR9108 Wirelessly?

Hello, I just purchased a THOMSON TG585 as an upgrade for my old USR9108: http://www.thomsonbroadbandpartner.c...ail.php?id=161, and http://www.usr.com/support/product-t....asp?prod=9108

My house has thick walls which makes my wirelss signal weak at my office, so instead of throwing away my USR9108 I decided to wirelessly connect it to my new THOMSON TG585 which is connected to the DSL line.

The TG585 supports WDS and the USR supports Wireless bridging and Access Point mode, so I want to make my TG585 the primary router and connect my USR9108 wirelessly as my secondary router.

I have tried and looked around to solve the issue, but my secondary router does not connect to the primary one, but my TG585 WDS finds my USR9108. Please help me.

I also tried to change my WAN settings on the USR9108 to MAC Encapsulated Routing (MER) and IP over ATM (IPoA), but that didnt help either.
