    I just got my metro connection in and have it seup. Got a Thompson cable modem with it but I want to use my old netopia router with it.

    I can't get the wireless connection to connect to the internet through the cable modem. I have the two connected and can access the Thompson modem through the wireless connection but thats it.

    Do I need to se the netopia router up as a bridge? The metro connection is up and I can use it over a direct ethernet connection.

    Any advice would be great.

    Does it have an ethernet WAN port or is it purely a wireless DSL router?

    turn off the dhcp server on the netopia and the thomson should allocate all ip addresses for the whole network from its dhcp server for you instead .

    leave its default ip address of 192.168.1.254 as is

    plig the Thomson into the WAN port of the router
    set the router to DHCP

    power cycle the thomson
