ROUTER SETUP:
- Turn off the wireless NIC on the laptop (usually by a hardware switch)
- Connect an Ethernet cat5 cable to the laptop eth0 port
- Connect that cat5 cable to a numbered port on the WRT54Gv2 router
- Set the laptop eth0 IP address to 192.168.1.X (anything higher than 1.1)
(e.g., on Ubuntu, I used: $ sudo ifconfig eth0 92.168.1.2)
