I bought a WAP and I tried setting it up on a wired network...The wired network is as this:

modem -- m0n0wall router (pc) -- switch -- PC 1
                                                      |     |     
                                                    PC2  |
                                                            |
                                                         wireless acces point

router has LAN ip: 192.168.0.1 and its range is 192.168.0.100-192.168.0.200

and in WAP I put these configuration:
IP 192.168.0.50
mask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.1

DHCP range: 192.168.0.96-192.168.0.127

And it doesnt work, seems to create conflict the WAP's gateway with router's lan IP! how do I set up this thing? do I have to create a Static route? Someone may help in here...

It sounds like you don't have a wireless access point, rather a wireless router. Try setting the DHCP on it to a different subnet e.g. 192.168.1.0/24

Do you mean DHCP on AP or router? if you mean on AP, I cant set it like that cause it is like this 192.168.0.X-192.168.0.Y all I can change in AP is the last number X and Y!

I have a D-link AP dwl-2000AP+

I tried WAP with this config:

ip 192.168.0.50
mask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.1 (router's IP)

DHCP disabled! and it didnt work!

as I said WAP's gw creates conflict with router's ip!
