Hey,

In response to Cheyanne, I'm trying to stay away from buying anymore hardware, if I can. My budget is fairly tight at the moment. Hehe, most people I've talked to about this have told me to quit being foolish and just buy another router.

I can see from HTRegz's post that I'll have to be a little more thorough in my questions.

Your analysis of my setup is correct, but I'm not sure about not being able to get it to work. Actually, I'm typing this on my laptop on the other side of the house from the router.

I plugged my laptop into the router to get the IP/DNS information, and then manually applied these settings to my wireless connection. Basically, I've bridged the gap between the WAN and my LAN. Granted, I had to set the netmask to 255.255.224.0, and I'm sure this will cause problems down the road, but until I get my paycheque and get another router, it should do fine.

I'm still a little fuzzy on the technologies employed here though, so correct me if I'm wrong in doing this. Will this adversly affect the network, or any other users? I'm not really worried about the ISP. They've assigned my an IP, and I don't think it will change before I get another router.
