Dear all,

This is slightly off topic, but i need a little help with a Linksys WGA54G
Ethernet bridge.
I have manged to lock myself out of the web front end by firstly encrypting
the wireless
to use a wep 128-bit router, then setting the bridge to use DHCP to get an
IP address from the router.

This meant that the default IP of 192.168.1.250 has been overwritten with
assigned IP from the router.
I checked what the IP address was by looking in the DHCP client tables of
the router (also Linksys).
The IP listed did not seem to be correct since I could not access the web
front end.

My problem is that I don't know what the IP address is on the hard wired
Ethernet port and I cant get the bridge to connect to my router (since i
cant access the setup)
so I cant assign a new address by DHCP that I can use to access the web
front end. I need away to scan for the IP address in use when it is
connected to my computer. I have already tried a ping utility that scans IP
ranges, to scan the range used by the router for DHCP but with no luck. It
could be any address with in the 255.255.255.0 subnet.

Any ideas?

James
