Lucky you... 

I have a similar setup and have not been able to configure the WAP as
a bridge. Its annoying because my home network is segmented!

Pardon my ASCII!  :-)

All I want to do is dumb down the Dlink 614+ so that it acts as a
bridge. Both routers have a 4 port hub/swtch.

Where did you find the option the set your Linksys as a bridge?
