Default Wired and Wireless network using Linksys

Hi!

I've been trying to get my home network setup so that the main machines are hardwired into the network, and then there's a wireless network that will allow other devices to connect to the network, but I'm having a lot of trouble with setting everything up, even thought the two network devices are both Linksys.

I have:[list][*]Linksys WRT54G v2.0 wireless router[*]Linksys AG241 ADSL Router
/LIST]
What I ideally want is to have the ADSL router connected to the internet, and then the two main PCs connect to the ADSL router via Ethernet cables, with static IPs for both. Then the wireless router connects to the ADSL router and allows for wireless devices to connect to the network and all devices able to communicate with each other.

I've tried a number of setups but nothing seems to be working and I'm at a bit of a loss. I thought it would be easy as the two devices are both Linksys, but the Linksys site has provided any results so far.

Any help in getting everything to work would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Rich

Are you connecting one of the AG241 LAN ports to the WAN port of the WRT54G? If so you will find that any computers connecting to it would be on a different subnet to any computers plugged into the AG241.

Try connecting one of the AG241 LAN ports to one of the LAN ports of the WRT54G.
Disable DHCP in the WRT54G and allow the AG241 to act as the DHCP server.
Give the WRT54G an IP Address outside the range of the DHCP.
