I had to set up my Microsoft wireless Base Station up using a straight through cable from the Uplink Port of my linksys router to port number 1 on the Wireless Base station. I have a Host Client configuration so I had to configure My wireless Base Station as a switch first, while it was connected directly to a computer, and then add it to my Network in the above manner. You don't mention if you have a P2P setup or a Host/client setup.
Anyway. Hope this helps you out.
