Okay, here's the problem:

I get my internet via a cable modem. Currently that modem is connected to a Linksys router (non wireless) which I need because I have my phone through Vonage. I connected the #1 LAN port on that router to my Airport Express. I'm having no problems accessing the internet on my MacBook Pro. However, my wife (who has a PC) can't connect to the internet. I've disabled the "Distribute IP Addresses" as I believe I need to set up the AE to act as a bridge. My wife's computer can see the network, and says that it is connected, but when she tries to connect to the internet, she's unable to. I've tried setting the IP address in her computer manually, with no luck. I'm guessing it's a problem on her end, because as I said, I'm having no problems with my computer.

Any suggestions? (please, don't turn this into an anti-PC thread, because that doesn't help me).

Thanks in advance!
