    Not sure!
    Each AirStation may be part of 6 different bridges. Remember that each layer of bridges takes about half your total network speed, so avoid configuring daisy-chains more than 4 bridges long. A star-pattern is always better, with a central router serving multiple bridges.
    Experiment, I am surprised that you need such a set up with a wireless router and two bridges!
