Another possible silly question, but prompted by Ed's:
    IF you have two routers... [I have a primary router that
    is connected to my DSL modem and a WiFi AP/Router that
    is connected to the primary router.]  You MUST have
    ONLY the 'primary' router providing the DHCP function.

I had problems when I first added my WiFi AP/Router.  It took a while
to figure out that I needed to turn the DHCP in the AP off.

FWIW...
Carl
