    I just installed a Netgear GA311 on my roommate's computer. Everything works fine if I hook it directly up to the cable modem (Scientific Atlantic DPC2100 series), but when I add my router (Linksys WRT54G v5) in between the cable modem and the desktop I can't get the desktop to get a "Connection-specific DNS Suffix" or a "Default Gateway" using the ipconfig command in the cmd window.

    I have no problems using my laptop wireless through the router or with the same port and cord through the router.

    Please help as I would like to get other components hooked up through the wireless router as well.

    Steps I've taken thus far:
    1. Reinstalling the GA311 drivers
    2. Resetting the desktop
    3. Crying
    4. Posting in this forum

    Thanks,
    Timmy
