So, I'm right. There is something fundamental I don't understand.

That worked, as far as finishing that part of the setup goes. But, the
laptop doesn't see the Internet. Wiring is as follows:
Cable from street --> Cable Modem --> Netgear Router --> Switch -->
WRT54G Router --> Laptop
The laptop can log in to the WRT54G using Firefox, but doesn't see the
Internet -- trying to load the Google search page produces "Firefox
can't find the server at www.google.com."
BTW, to restate the ultimate goal, I'm trying to eliminate a cable
running across the basement floor with the following wiring:
Cable from street --> Cable Modem --> Netgear Router --> Switch -->
WRT54G Router --> Linksys WET11 Wireless Ethernet Bridge --> ReplayTV DVR
So, I haven't gotten to the wireless part, yet.
