Subject: [OS2Wireless] Linksys Wireless Router Configuration

I have the same router with my cable Internet connection, but I have it 
configured as DHCP server in conjunction with fixed IP addresses on each 
machine -- 192.168.1.1xx. This works fine for me, and I don't see why 
the same wouldn't work with a DSL modem. But I have no VoIP "in circuit" 
to confuse matters.

I've never used the CD that came with the router. I've done all the 
configuration -- and even firmware updates -- using Mozilla to access 
the router at 192.168.1.1.

Don't know whether this helps.
