I used DD-wrt for WDS clients.
I have a hotspot site with 5 AP in chain. Works fine!

Yep, WDS should do the trick. 

Unfortunately, I haven't been having too much luck with WDS on OpenWRT. (Tried almost a year ago, so may have improved). It worked, but was tricky and difficult to manage as I needed routers to be on different subnets.

I did a search on bridging some time ago.

What worked for me was WDS. (I did it on WRT54GL and WAP 54)
