That would be my suggestion as well. Also, make sure you connect the WET54G to one of the Netgear's LAN ports, NOT to the WAN port. While I have seen other people suggest that going through the WAN port will work just fine, I have always had my doubts about this. Trying to understand NATing an already NATed IP and essentially creating another "firewalled" LAN inside a LAN gives me mild nausea so I try to never go there. Remember that what you want is to make sure all the devices in your LAN are assigned addresses which are on the SAME subnet, otherwise they will not be able to (easily) talk to each other. -irrational john -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
