Previously my home network is as follows

Speedtouch ST536 -> Linksys WRT54G

But now as I have upgraded my internet subscription. My service provider gave me a "2Wire 2701 HGV" modem. I was wondering if it is possible to put the "2Wire" as an access point. So I might have a configuration as follows?

Room                                                      Living Room
Speedtouch ST536 -> Linksys WRT54G       {Wireless}       2Wire 2701 HGV

Because I find that my signal is very weak.

Is there any way for me to do that?
