ok, I have the dlink 514 in my network also. Do you have a Rev B or Rev C?
Lets get down to it.
The 514 is not able to be placed in an AP mode. it is strickly a router,
that is the reason you are unable to see your wired side.
Is there anyway to disable the router in your modem? If so I can get you up
and running 100% in my next post. I guess either way I can get you up in my
next post. But if you can disable the router on the modem it would be so
much easier.
