Query - Esat BT Business Modem/Router setup

    I have purchased a D-Link 604+ Wireless Modem/Router. The Ericsson one wasn't that good I thought (for what I needed).

    Has anyone sucessfully configured a new modem/router with the business package?
    If so what are the main things to make sure when setting it up properly. Yes I have read the Manual and yes I have phoned Esat Tech. Spent about 15 minutes without any joy. Thanks is advance. Will spend more time this evening at it.

    It should be as simple as just copying the configuration on the ericsson onto the d-link...

    Just plug the modem that ESAT provide into your router. Don't sweat it.

    I cannot access the Internet. However if I set TCP/IP to those given by ISP (Static IP). I can access internet fine but can't ping Network IP's above.

    I'm sure the problem is with my 604+ configuration. Any idea's/suggestions appreciated! I've tried a few combinations to no avail. I've been onto Esat BT although helpful I think I'll be ringing DLink monday to see if they can do anything
