Thanks, Bernd, problem resolved. As it turns out I didn't understand the term "name server"
use in Arachne.
Your method with WatTcp will work ok but I decided to do manual tcp/ip setup instead. The
following will work with default settings of Linksys routers:

The resulting Arachne.cfg looks as follows:
[tcp/ip]
IP_Address 192.168.1.1
IP_Grab IP address set to
NameServer 192.168.1.1
AltNameServer 0.0.0.0
Gateway 192.168.1.1
AltGateway 0.0.0.0
Netmask 255.255.255.0
TCPconfig LANTCP.CFG
