Your email is unclear to me. Is everything connected to the router via
ethernet (and the only thing you want to connect wirelessly the G4 tower)?

Several weeks ago I had the same problem setting up my sons router and
his new pc laptop to connect wirelessly. I went to linksys help and had
to reconfigure some stuff but I don't remember all of what I did. 
I believe I had to change some ip settings.

I'm going back to my sons this weekend and will try and figure out what I did.
