I can't comment on Linksys 812.11 products, my router isn't a wireless base station...just a router/switch...I'm using ethernet cables to connect the PC and base station to the router.
It acts as a DHCP sever, so the only configuration I remember doing to the PC was telling the ethernet card to ask for an IP address instead of manually assigning one.
