Anyway, glad this is working for you. I told you that the experience would be a good one to get under your belt. It's a little tricky, but I find that once you actually get it working, it's fairly consistent.

I did the setup in the office.  I pulled the cable on one computer from the GS and plugged it into the G.  Then I took it to the shop, which is about forty feet the other side of four stick and plaster walls, where I have four stations on a KVM.  It worked for about an hour and a half and lost it's mind.  It didn't just stop connecting, I could not access it.  I took it back to the office, reset it, and did it all over again.

It sounds to me like an address conflict. Are you *certain* that you have no other device with the same static IP on either end of the link as the G? With the G turned off, can you ping its address and get any response (telltale sign)?
So far I have only been able to set it up under WXP.  I did not do everything listed in the on-line instructions.  Only;
Client Bridge
Local IP
Site survey > Join
Check connections without security.
WPA
Check connections
Backup!!!

In that order.

I could not get WPA2 to connect.

Not surprising. If using WPA or WPA2, you should enable broadcast of the SSID, BTW. Connecting to a non-beaconing AP using WPA (or WPA2) can be problematic. In the interim, let's just focus on getting it to stay up with clear connections. once you repeat the experiment, log into the G and look at your connected devices. Make sure they're all there, and that nothing has a conflicting address (it shouldn't, or it wouldn't likely be listed).
