2 Wireless routers setup

I have 2 wireless routers which i want to connect to each other and provide inter access to wired pc instead of buying USB wireless adapters.

Router 1: Thomson TG585v7 wireless router 4-port switch
Currently configured with ISP ADSL and DHCP enabled for wireless clients.
IP:192.168.1.200
DHCP Scope: 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.99

Router 2: 3Com OfficeConnect Wireless 54 Mbps 11g Cable/DSL Router Wireless router - 4-port switch
Currently 1 pc is wired connected to switch port. The distance between 2 routers is quite long in the primes and connecting 2 routers with wire is infeasible. I want to wired pc to get internet through main router 1.
IP: 192.168.1.1
No DHCP enabled
Has feature of WDS and can see if enabled wireless router 1.

Both routers in different channels. Using same SSID and WPA2 Encryption keys.

I tried configuring in wired pc ip address as 192.168.1.2 with DWG as 192.168.1.200 it does not ping the gateway.

I have also disabled NAT in router 2 did not work.

Can anyone help to troubleshoot this issue.

So you'd want to keep Router 1 setup as a regular AP

and Router 2 as a bridge, or client, of router 1

...not sure if the 3Com has the "bridge" or "wireless client" option so you could do that
