Why would the IP addy of my WAP54G AP and repeater change..

Question

Been living a horror story since installing WAP54G as AP and WAP45g as repeater..Went to look at configs today and thier IP addresses were different. Only found them by trying different IPs.. Could this have something to do with my " Is anyone other then me using 2 WUSB54G's off the same AP.. I have a WAP54g and 2 New Dell pc's and am trying to use USB adapters to connect.. having all sorts of problems, Can't share printer between the

two, Getting "access violation at address 004075e5 module WUSB54G4.exe of address 00000368" on both PC's and having connect issues (one or the other drops off the net) " post ? Thanks ,Ted O.

Wait a minute, you've got two of them now, and they aren't acting right?

What IPs do they have now? Did you set the admin passwords? Is it possible someone is mucking about with your WAPs?

Does everything work if you just have one of them used as an AP?

Are they getting these thru DHCP from the WRT? Why not set them to static addresses outside the DHCP pool range of the WRT? They come from the factory at ...245, I'd leave the AP there and set the router to ...246 or something.
