I would like to share my internet connection through a Wifidog hotspot -- outside clients need completely unencrypted wireless connections. My home network already uses WPA encryption and I want my home to remain secure. Of course, I can't string a wire through my whole apartment, so I need to WDS connect a couple WRT54GL boxes.
My question is whether/how I can configure WDS between OpenWRT boxes whose AP clients require different encryption. Note that I wouldn't really care whether the WDS connection is encrypted. I think this ascii diagram will clarify what I am thinking:

Ultimately, I'll want to isolate all wifidog client traffic from my home network (i.e., allow to internet only), but I will need to administer the wifidog OpenWRT from a computer on the secured home network.
