Well blow me! I reconnected everything with the WRT54G at the centre of it all, so I could take some screenshots, and everything is working great-guns!

Could even be working a little better than the HH3? (There is a 1 second pause on clicking on WWW page links, then bam! page loaded.)

EDIT: Last night I had left the HH3 connected as a WiFi AP, but this morning disconnected it from the LAN. Lo-and-behold, when I added the HH3 back onto the LAN, I get the same 'cannot connect to broadband' error. Looks like I can't use the HH3 for anything other than a doorstop....

So, in summary, I have use the WRT54G with DD-WRT firmware to replace the BT HomeHub3 on my home network.

'God bless WRT54Gs'!
