Using a Linksys WRT54G with Kerry Broadband

[por]

Hi.
Just got Kerry Broad Band installed. I have a Linksys WRT54G I want to use with it but cannot seem to get it working.
The KBB service is simply a radio on the roof with a Ethernet cable going into a power box and out the other end to the PC. No logins, static IP or anything.
I can't get the router to work with it cos I do not know what setting I should use of the routers setup page.
I presume what I get from KBB is DHCP, however when I select that option in the setup page it does not seem to work. Are there any advanced setting I should have?

Any ideas.?

Hi POR,

Just setup the WAN side of the router to accept DHCP and setup the LAN side IP address to 192.168.100.254 and accept all the defaults.

You can always use the easy setp button on the router to automatically set itself up providing you have all the connections connected properly.

We recommend the WAP54G for use with all wireless networks.

Regards

Thanks for the info.
It is actually the WRT54G rather than the WAP54G that I am using. The setup for the WRT54G seems different to the WAP54G.
The Basic setup page is as in the attached file. Where does the IP address you gave fit in relation to that page as there does not seem to be any other page to setup LAN or WAN side IPs.
Everything works fine using cables if I connect the internet cable from the radio to one of the 4 ports (not the one marked Internet) on the WRT54G and then connect another cable from another one of the 4 ports to the PC.
However I cannot seem to get this to work wirelessly.

The screenshot is poor so I cant see much.

Just setup the wan(internet) port to accept DHCP and setup the lan side with a 192.168.100.254 ip address.The subnet should be 255.255.255.000. Enable DHCP on the lan side of the router and it should work perfect.
