We are starting to have our first customers wanting to setup vpn's through
our wireless service.

We run Karlnet AP1000 base, RG1100 cpe.  All cpe's have static ip's and the
AP1000's in routing mode.

Is there anyway to do this without giving the customers a second real world
IP?  I really don't understand as much about bridging with the Karlnet stuff
as I should, but this is the scenario.  What I really want to know is if
this can be done without the second ip for each end.  (right now the
customers wanting to do this are on our wireless service at home and the
office and have Netgear vpn routers at both ends)

RG has a real world IP.  Turn nat and dhcp off, enable bridging.  Give
customer a second ip for his netgear router.

Using bridging, can this work without the second ip for the netgear router?
For example, can it share the ip of the RG?  I have always worked pretty
much exclusively with routing, so some of these bridging applications are a
bit confusing to me.
