> But, I still get online, can ping my maching and ping the static IP and nameservers used for the static IP's, all ok.  AttYahoo tell me I should be able to do so using the same nameserver/gateway used for DHCP, 192.168.1.254, but I can't in spite of everything else working.  Need some new idess, ATT tech support can't do it.

Let's recap:

Internet
  o
2Wire DSL Modem/Router (4 ports?)
 IP Router = gateway.2wire.net = 192.168.1.254
 Router
 - DHCP settings on the 2Wire are? See:
http://shastademo.2wire.com/rgw3-7/CONTENT/management/xslt10.htm
 are your DHCP's configured manually or are you just at default?
 - What does your device list show?
http://shastademo.2wire.com/rgw3-7/CONTENT/management/xslt7.htm
  o
Machine 1 connected directly to the 2Wire ethernet port
 IP Machine 1 = ?
  o
Linsys WMP54G connected directly to another 2Wire ethernet port
 IP WMP54G = ?
