Linksys WAG54G and WGA54G - Help !

    Really difficult problem.



    I am trying to hook up a PS2 to a home network and had thought the problems were signal quality but then realised that the wireless light on the WGA was not on.



    It seems that even when the WAG and WGA are next to each other they cannot communicate.

    I have reset the channels / ip address etc loads of times but nothing - in fact sometimes the WGA stops the network from working and has to be removed !

    There doesn't appear to be any firmware upgrades for the WGA.

    I have made sure the SSID's are matching exactly and all encryption is turned off.



    When I use the browser to look at the WAG it does not register the WGA as either a wireless connection or as part of a lan - but the other connections show up ok.



    I have also changed using several different channels. It is set up as Infrastructure in both the software and the little switch on the side.

    Some specific q's

    1. Do I have to have both devices set to the same channel?

    2. Is it better to set the WGA to use DHCP?



    Any help would be great



    Thks

    1. Yes but the WGA should auto detect the channel
    2. DHCP with a WRT54g router should work fine.

    Is the WGA picking up the ethenet connection to the PS2?? It will not work otherwise.
