Hi from Athens,

I' m trying to wirelessly connect my DB500s with a Tilgin Vood 452w modem-router using an ethernet bridge Linksys WET54G.

I connected the bridge to a PC w/o Internet access and tried to configure it according the included instructions.

After a few attempts, the PC connected to the router.

Then I removed the bridge from the PC, and tried to connect the DB.

NO LUCK !!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Power & Wireless leds are always ON, but Ethernet led NOT.

My WET54G is a v.3.1 running 2.7 US firmware.

Router 192.168.1.1
PC(1) 192.168.1.100 (connected wirelessly via a USB stick)
PC(2) 192.168.1.200 (connected wirelessly via a USB stick)
WET54G 192.168.1.226
DB500s 192.168.1.101 - 255.255.255.0 - 192.168.1.1 - LAN enabled - Port 80 - Nameserver & Gateway (Router IP)

For both configuration & connection I used the included CROSS ethernet cable.

Any help mates?

Thanks in advance

from my experience the WET54G simply couldn't connect to the dreambox (no idea why really). The LED for the ethernet conenction just wouldn't turn on no matter how much I tweaked and adjusted.

In the end I went out and exchanged it for a WAP54G. That worked perfectly from the get go and there are plenty of guides floating around on how to set it up.
