The following link nicely summarizes what steps should be taken http://www.linksys.com/splash/wirelessnotes.asp I also noticed there was an upgrade to the firmware on 8/4/2004. I'll upgrade tonight, if I remember??

If it doesn't plug and play I get lost. I have done the router configuration thing - 192.168.1.1 - through my browser and done some stuff under the direction of a network guy but it was long ago. Anything I should look for there that might open things up?
