Using Linksys router to add wireless to cable network
We've been given a laptop and a Linksys WRT54Gv2.2 wireless broadband router with 4 port switch, and I thought it would be nice if I could use it as a replacement to the existing switch (it's a Linksys BEFSR41 (now I read the label on the back, it's also a router with 4 port switch!)) but with the added benefit of giving the laptop wireless access.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work.
It's nothing to do with MAC addresses.
Apart from that, I'm stumped. I've tried turning off the DHCP server on the modem, thinking that there was a conflict between it & the router, but that didn't fix anything.
