Zoom X3 Modem Configuration

I've connected the modem up, via a linlsys wireless-g router, and it
works fine for connecting to the internet. The other PC on the
wireless-g network can also connect to the internet.

Two problems:
1) When configuring the modem, I can only see the 'basic' page. I
cannot get to any of the other configuration pages because there is no
row of icon/links at the top of the 'basic' configuration page as
illustrated in the manual. Any ideas on how to get these icons to
display?

2) The other PC can see the wireless network and connect through it
to the internet but it cannot see this PC or anything it is trying to
share. As far as I can see, both are in the same workgroup and have
the same network settings. Obviously, I'm missing something. Any
ideas what?

Thanks,
Vince.

If it helps (Assuming you're still running it on 10.0.0.2):
System Status is http://10.0.0.2/doc/home.htm
ADSL Status is http://10.0.0.2/doc/adsl.htm
Basic setup is http://10.0.0.2/doc/wan_adv.htm
Advanced Setup is http://10.0.0.2/doc/home.htm
Help is ... a complete waste of time!

I had big problems with mine initially till I got them running on the
same subnet etc. I'd suggest manually configuring your computer's IP
to 10.0.0.15 for example, and set 10.0.0.2 as your gateway and DNS.

Thanks Bob.
Those web addresses work fine. Not sure why the links on the
configuration web pages don't appear of their own accord though.
Still having problems creating an XP workgroup that the second PC can
see. I'll try a few things out before postting where I'm at.

Curiously, I can see all the modem configuration icons on the 10.0.0.2
webpage from the PC that connects to it across the wireless network
but not from the PC that is wired directly to it through the wireless
router. The local PC has to go directly to the web addresses you
gave.

I wonder if this is a symptom of why I can't set up a wireless network
via this router?
