From what I understand so far, William can correct me, he wants Scenario 1,
where its a transparent bridge. I've been re-acquainting myself with this all morning. Yes, scenario 1 is what I meant and want. Correct term (and operation) is "client bridge". Second router connects to the main router as client and gets DHCP IP from the main router, like any other connecting devices. Then, the second router bridges its wlan0 and eth0 (internally, creates br0 which contains wlan0 and eth0).
Anyways, for the external device connecting to the second router, it appears as though it's connecting to the main router. It gets DHCP IP from the main router, it's on the same network as other devices connected (via cable or wifi) to the main router, etc. In other words, instead of long ethernet cable to the main router, it has short cable to the second router.
That is exactly what that D-Link will do in Client mode. It will connect one or more Ethernet devices via WiFi to the router.
