[PLUG] Configuring a Linksys WET11

[wes]

The important point is that the computer you're trying to access it from has
to have an IP address in the same network (192.168.x) as the device you're
trying to access. So if you've reset the WET11, and its IP has reverted to
192.168.1.225, you'll need to set the computer you're trying to access it
from to an IP in the 192.168.1.x range.
