Just turn off the DHCP server in the WRT54G, and cable the two together,
lan-port to lan-port. Keep them both in the same subnet (as you already
have).
To make life easier, configure the two with different SSIDs and channels.
I use an SMC8204 and a WGR614 in this way. WinXP manages to swap between
the two as I walk about the house and garden, with no ill effects.
