Thank you so much for the detailed response, I just wish I understood
it all!  I do have DHCP enabled (checked in ipconfig) so I'd like to
stick with DHCP for everything.  I can try disabling WEP but I want to
make sure I understand everything else first.  For lan_network_address I
can use 0.0.0.0 and it should assign it automatically since I have DHCP.
I also want to stay with lan_mode of 1 (DHCP) and not set anything for
lan_gateway and primary_dns since those are static only settings,
correct?  Server address and squeezecenter address should still both be
the same and should be 192.168.1.4 I believe.

If this is the case I have everything already set up correctly, I just
need to just try disabling WEP.  Let me give that a go and see what
happens.  Do I need to reset the SBR completely before switching over to
wireless or can I just start changing the settings from the wired
setting and just making sure I'm on interface=0?
