What I don't understand is how to put the Linksys between the DSL modem and the G4 and still reach the G4 over wireless via a static ip address. If I can do that, I can work out the rest. But I can't seem to figure out how to do that. The "enter a route" screen is totally cryptic and HTF do I pick a static wireless address for the G4 intelligently and get the linksys to route to it? The G4 is totally in client mode when I do this.
I have another issue as well now - for expediency I've added the PC to the DSL modem/router on a static ip address of its own. It crashes the DSL router after about one or two web requests. What is with these PC things?
I've turned off all windows services, just have tcpip configured with static ip address, router, dns mask same as G4's ethernet settings, sitting side by side (except ip address is one higher) and the DSL gadget (its an ActionTec something or other - all I know is it provides 4 ports and routes 5 static ip addresses).
Tips on making the PC network nice to the G4 - even in a peer to peer - would be nice. How do windows people live like this? They don't connect to anything reliably.
