Michel,

I am using the same setup just described in my office. Please note that the max 802.11g speed is 54mbs on the wireles side. THe 100mbs is on the hardwired side. Receiption through walls is not great, don't expect the full data rate. Upstairs / downstairs works better than room to room.

The port status has a tendency to say 54mbs even if the productive datarate is 0. You need to watch data transfer not the radio status.

BUT, in summary - it beats having to hardcable my laptop into the network each time I move it.

1) Watch for firmware upgrades as 802.11g is DRAFT. The out of the box firmware has been upgraded in the last 3 weeks and that upgrade makes a significant performance improvement.

2) if you mix the WRT54G router/access point into an existing network remember to set the IP address of the box to something you can reach. Otherwise, once you plug it in the network you will not be able to reconfigure it - in particular its wireless features.

I hope this helps,
Ted
