>>Hi folks,

>>I don't ask much of the list very often but I'm up against it
now. I am running all Linksys equipment, BEFCU10 cable modem,
BEFSx41 hardware firewall router, and a WRT54G wireless router
setup as an access point off the wired router.

Ok, you say the BEFSx41 was working just fine until you plugged into
WRT54G into it.
Try this... go into your WRT54G Linksys Bios.... under Setup do you
see the MAC address clone tab? Press the clone your PCs MAC address
and see if that doesn't bring it back a live. You can also try this
in the BEFSx41.
I have three different Linksys routers, including a WRT54G set up to
isolate my LAN from my WAN. It took me months to get it working right
and it was eventually Linksys tech support that got it working. They
will solve the problem, but it is a really teeth grinding, annoying
call to make.
You will get tech support somewhere in the East. They follow a set
procedure that seems tedious, and unnecessary. But they know things
about their routers that you will never figure out. And if you do
exactly what they say, they will solve the problem. And if you get
somebody that says it can't be done... call back another time until
you get a smarter tech. In my case, I made many calls to tech
support, and it was the only way I eventually got all the problems solved.
