If this works (as I suspect it will), make note of the internet connection type as configured on the main page, & post the setting here.

PING 192.168.1.1 now yields 6>6 0% loss

 

 

 

 

 

Also, please give us detailed info on your setup, including:

Type  of  DSL connection you have, and the model of your DSL bridge.

connected to Linksys Broadband Wireless-G router WRTG v1.1

 

 

 

eCS router is connected to box thru Belkin NIC (recognized at eCS 1.2 install)

Let's set this up simply:

Computer running eCS (or anything else) with Belkin NIC --- goes to
LinkSys BEFW11S4 router ---- via CAT-5 (ethernet) cable

  1. Now, forget about anything else. Besides the power connected to
     the LinkSys and the CAT-5 from the Belkin NIC, nothing else should
     be plugged into the LinkSys box. Hold down the reset button in the
     back of the LinkSys box for 15 seconds.

  2. At the eCS box, make sure that DHCP is enabled for the logical
     interface assigned to your Belkin card (probably lan0). You can
     check this with the TCP/IP Configuration applet. If it wasn't
     already configured for DHCP, make the change in the applet, close
     it, shut down and reboot. Skip to step 4.

  3. If it was already set for DHCP, open the DHCP Monitor applet. In
     the interface box, be sure that the correct interface number is
     listed (probably lan0). Select Actions | Release lease and
     acknowledge the warning dialog. Once the address has been
     released, select Actions | Request lease. You should get an
     address on the 192.168.1.0 subnet (at factory defaults, the
     LinkSys turns on DHCP services, with anaddress pool starting at
     .100, so you should see an address like 192.168.1.100 when you get
     a valid lease). Select View | Details, and in the message log,
     below, you should see something telling you that it recorded an
     offer from server 192.168.1.1, followed by your assigned address
     in parentheses.

  4. Try pinging 192.168.1.1. If successful, open your browser to that
     address, as I mentioned before. Log in per my earlier
     instructions. You should get to the setup page.

  5. Come back to the list and report your progress. The next step will
     be to get the other router set up properly with the DSL, and
     finally, to bridge the two units. We'll need to make sure the
     firmware is current enough in the BEFW11SR4 for wireless bridging
     to work, but that's a few steps down the road. Right now, I want
     to make sure we have an entrance ramp and an exit ramp. We'll
     build the "bridge" later. :-)
