WRT54G I can connect... But that's It! HELP

I've had a wired network at home for a couple of years now with 3 computers hooked up to a switch. I could share files and access the internet via ICS/dailup with out a problem.
I decided to go wireless and purchased the WRT54G. I hooked up 2 computers via ethernet cables to the proper ports on back of the router. I then can find the wireless network with my laptop and also get connected to the wireless network, but that is as far as it goes. I cannot access any of the files on either of the other 2 computers, nor can they access the laptop. I can access the router with the laptop on wireless via http://192.168.1.1/ I can't access the router with either of the other 2 computers even thou they are connected with a cable and also typing in http://192.168.1.1 in Internet Explorer address. I did run the setup CD on 1 of the hard wired computers and carefully followed the instructions.
Looking for any help as to how I can get these 3 computer back talking to each other and setting this network up correctly........ Thanks

My problem is slightly different. I have the same issue where I can connect wirelesly, but not via ethernet cable.
The difference is that it's *intermittent*. Sometimes the wired connection works, sometimes it doesn't. I came home from work and connected to my office through vpn without any problem. Read email from a server behind their firewall, accessed a few internal websites, then nothing.
Happened last night, too, and eventually came back to life... again, just the wired connection.
It's not ICS, because I'm not using it. And it's not windows, and it's not my OS (that particular machine has had problems whether I'm running Linux or Windows).
It's version 6, firmware 1.00.9.
After reading horror stories about people messing up their routers trying to update the firmware, I want to see release notes that say it fixes my specific problem. Otherwise I'm taking it back... might just take it back this evening, I'm supposed to work at home tomorrow and am not going to deal with a problem router.

Place the iPod in Recovery mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes.

Problem connecting wirelessly from iMac to NETGEAR router, get invalid password message with WPA and WPA-2 encryption in place but if I remove them, so no security, can connect without a problem. Help!!

Problem connecting wirelessly from iMac to NETGEAR router, get invalid password message with WPA and WPA-2 encryption in place but if I remove them, so no security, can connect without a problem. Help!!

Thank you for your suggestion but I have already had a couple of phone sessions with NETGEAR support and they don't see any problems with the router settings etc. They referred me to Apple support, who helped me discover that it is possible to communicate with the router but only if I turn off the encryption/security software, which I don't want to do. The frustrating thing is that I can connect wirelessly from a laptop running Windows 7 and two Anroid smart phones, with WPA-2 in place, without a problem. Do you have any other ideas?

My iPhone 5 has lost network coverage. Wifi is still ok just can't receive calls or text messages (iMessages are ok though? ). I've re set network settings but that hasn't helped.

My ipod touch 3rd gen. will not convert to widescreen on rotating the ipod since downloading os5. I restored in itunes but that didn't help.

The problem started after updating the software to os5. I tried restoring in itunes but that didn't help. Is os5 or one of my apps causing the problem? Can I convert back to the previous operating system?

Every time I open iPhoto, the program freezes, showing me the spinning rainbow of death. I always need to perform a Force Quit. I have updated my software, but that did not help.

Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

After upgrading to iOS 5, my iPhone 4 takes a very long time to open digitally signed emails. I've tried with the SMIME settings enabled, but that doesn't help either. Any ideas on how to resolve this? Thanks in advance.

I suspect you may have a corrupt photo or image that is causing the sync to fail or quit. You might want to try removing all of your photos by deselecting them in iTunes then sync - and try adding them by each sub-folders until you are able to nail down which sub-folder of photos, that causes the sync to stop or gives you errors.
