Sharing a static IP address with DLink G604T tonganews 01-27-07

Greetings

We have a static IP address (a direct connection to the internet with
no proxies or firewall), which we wish to share with a DLink G604T. I
have configured the router as per the manual instructions (I set my IP
address to 10.1.1.x and logged into the DLink menu and ran the wizard).

I have successfully been able to program it to assign IP addresses with
DHCP (eg. if I say 10.1.1.70 to 10.1.1.90 it naturally assigns
10.1.1.70 to the first computer that logs on).

Now I know our static IP address, subnet mask, default gateway (which
is slightly different to the IP address) and also the DNS server IP
addresses. However, when I set my computer to obtain its ip address
automatically (which it does!) any attempt to ping either of the DNS
servers or any internet server fails.

If I connect the cable back to the notebook and use the correct IP
address, subnet, gateway and DNS the connection works fine again.

Assuming I've done something wrong, can you please list some thing I
should double-check? I assume this should be a fundamentally basic
configuration (as illustrated that DLink thinks to add a wizard where
you can specify STATIC IP ADDRESS and complete accordingly) but are
there any menu items on the DLink that may have been overlooked in
configuring sharing a static IP address? (could you make a list -
would really appreciate it!)

Thank you very much!
