I have the same setup as you, but I got the connection to
work before the 2.02.7 firmware.
I had the WRT54G firewall enabled and could not resolve

Disable the firewall, all connections went through.
Enable the firewall again, and all is good. I think the
WRT54G needs to let the device connect once before it's
firewall thinks it's supposed to block it.
