I just bought a Linksys WRT54G (802.11 G wirless router/switch) to hook up to my network along with my existing router, a BEFSR41 (Cable/DSL router/switch).

Here is my dillema: Whenever I put the routers on the same network (192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.2) to allow the computers on both routers to see each other my internet services go on and offline CONSTANTLY... I tried this previously with a D-Link wireless router before and had the same problem.

When I hook up the routers on different networks (192.168.1.1 and 192.168.2.1) it works fine for Internet browsing, but then I can't see the other computers in the house...

Ideally I'd like to be able to have the computers on the wireless router/switch be able to communicate with the wired router/switch like they can when they are both on the 1.x network, but without my AIM going on and offline every 20 seconds.

Any shared suggestions / experiences with this would be appreciated.
