I can't tell you about the BT device part but I think your netgear wn602 needs to be in bridge to bridge mode, not bridge to multipoint bridge. The latter seems to be for use a "wireless repeater" i.e. allow multiple wireless devices to connect to the wn602 and access (bridge to) an existing wireless (& wired) network (e.g. to bridge to a network running from a separate wireless router).
It is possible the problem is your BT home hub device. I don't know if this can be bridged or not. Presumably you've tried doing some google searches on this.
How to do bridging in order to connect a device with a lan port via the wn602 and wn604 does not seem to be explained well in the netgear manuals. I have set up a few different wireless routers before but never done bridging. The manual does not give me confidence that I could do this.
I have a netgear dgn2200 router. I'd like to buy a wn602 or wn604 in orde to bridge my blu-ray player to my network but I am not confident of getting this to work. I will start a new thread for this and hope I get more response than you did.
