Although the initial problem was solved, now that the unit has reset itself I am now where I was a year or so ago, though I don't remember how I solved this one.
In review, my setup is DSL modem connected to hub. Connected to the hub is a wired PC and the wireless Access Point.
I had this setup so that I could gain internet access via the Access Point - hub - dsl modem. This would work even when the other PC was off, no internet connection sharing going on.
I can talk to the Access Point if I connect a laptop and wire it into the hub, then set the IP address of the laptop to be something like
192.168.1.5.
I experimented with various combinations of IP. DNS and DHCP settings to no avail.
If I run ipconfig from my wired machine I get this:
