Problem connecting WDTV live HD to WL-500gPV2 set up as wireless bridge

Hi,

I have my WDTV live HD connected by a LAN cable to an Asus WL-500g Premium V2  wireless router.  The router is configured as an access point in bridge mode (WDS only).  This connects wirelessly to my primary router.  Settings on the WL-500gPV2 are as follows:

IP address: 198.168.10.51

Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

Gateway: 192.168.10.1 (this is the IP address of my primary router)

DNS: 192.168.10.1

Automatic netork confuguration on the WDTV doesn’t work,  I tried manually putting in these values:

IP address: 198.168.10.20

Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

Gateway: 192.168.10.51

DNS: 192.168.10.1

When I do a connection test, IP address is OK, but it fails  on the DNS server test.  I have also tried using all combinations of 192.168.10.51/192.168.10.1 for Gateway/DNS on the WDTV, but nothing has worked.

Any ideas on how I might resolve this is most welcome.

thanks

Tony

I have the same issue.  I’m giving up and returning my WD TV Live.
