I've just moved house (and broadband provider) and in the process seem to have lost connectivity to my WL-500g. Since putting Kamikaze onto the router I'd been unable to use the wired ports and relied upon a wireless connection to my DSL router.

The router appears to boot successfully (going by the lights), but I cannot seem to connect to it at all - is there any way to 'force' a connection via the wired ports ?  The router was running with a fixed (internal) IP address and it would appear that it's not acting as a DHCP server. I tried using "arp -s" to map it's MAC address to what I believe it's IP address to be, but no luck as yet in connecting and getting it to talk to me.

It may be that I need to go back to basics and reflash - if I do so any chance I could just stick my USB drive back in and have all the settings/config I had before ?
