Bridging Wireless Conections

I live in a basement suite and get my internet via a wireless router from my landlords. Because I'm right on the edge of the routers range I can only connect to it using my desktop using a directional antenna. I happen to have another wireless router (SMC2804WBR) laying around and I want set up a bridge between my desktop's internet and my spare router via my desktops Ethernet, so I can use my laptop's wireless around my place. I have been able to get a similar configuration working using BSD in the past (after a lot of effort), but have thus far been unable to do so in Windows (XP). I have tried just bridging my WLAN and ETH cards with my ETH card plugged into my routers WAN but to no avail. Anyone know how do do this? Thanks

Can your wireless card be placed in Promiscuous mode? This is critical.
