[Wireless] tomato whr-hp-g54 getting wds to work

Hi,
I just flashed both routers with tomato 1.27. I configured the routers as requested in the FAQ's for WDS on tomato's web site
snippet...
#1 - 00:11:11:11:11:11
The WAN port of this router is connected to the Internet.
WAN
(configure normally)

LAN
IP Address = 192.168.1.1
DHCP Server = enabled

Wireless
Wireless Mode = Access Point + WDS
SSID = samessid
Channel = 3
Security = WPA Personal
Encryption = AES
Shared Key = samesharedkey
WDS = Link With
MAC Address = 00:22:22:22:22:22 (the *wireless* MAC of the 2nd router)

#2 - 00:22:22:22:22:22
The WAN port of this router is not used.
WAN
Type = Disabled

LAN
IP Address = 192.168.1.2
Default Gateway = 192.168.1.1 (the 1st router's IP address)
Static DNS = 192.168.1.1 (the 1st router's IP address or any DNS server)
DHCP Server = Disabled (the 1st router handles it)

Wireless
Wireless Mode = Access Point + WDS
SSID = samessid
Channel = 3
Security = WPA Personal
Encryption = AES
Shared Key = samesharedkey
WDS = Link With
MAC Address = 00:11:11:11:11:11 (the *wireless* MAC of the 1st router)
.....

Seems to autoswitch fine, however when i'm using the second router i get no internet access ie limited connectivity. Once i power down the second router and get connected to the first all is well. Any suggestions???

Thanks,
Anderson

Under "advanced" - "routing" enable Spanning tree protocol. Do this on both Tomatoes and reboot them both. It should clear up the problem.
