Problems with a Wired Conenction to an AP

[meowboy]

Hilo everybody. Well the problem I'm having is that internet is not getting into my other computers. I have one computer plugged into a wired router and an AP plugged into one of those ports. On my other computer, I have a wireless network card waiting for internet. What seems to happen is that the network works perfectly fine (i.e. file and printer sharing), whereas the internet is absent. I have followed all instructions from http://www.ezlan.net/router_AP.html except using a crossover cable. Is it necessary to use a crossover cable? If not, what seems to be the problem?

1. Make sure your gateway is set to the Routers internal IP address.

You can't use a crossover cable to connect PCs to routers or routers to hubs and such. Should just be using a normal patch cable...
