hmm so you have it like this

BT type ADSL phone line <>WAN-talk talk router-eth1<>WAN-WRT54GR-wireless router

you then ethernet plug your PCs into the LAN ports of the WRT54GR-wireless router.... or more likely
connect wirelessly to the new WRT54GR-wireless router in the chain....

eather the "talk talk router" OR the "WRT54GR-wireless router" is giving out your LAN IP address to your PCs, YOU CANT HAVE BOTH set for DHCPd use, or it gets messy,turn one DHCPd off and/or use fixed IPs 192.168.0.* and netmask 0f 255.255.255.0 ,set the gateway for/to the "talk talk router" LAN IP, and the secondary DNS to whatever the talk talk ISP DNS is, or use the open DNS ip.
