I've owned Linksys routers for almost 10 years and I'm pretty familiar with all their settings. I have that same exact router and I also own the Linksys WRT54G router. Not sure how long you have owned it, but have you checked to see that you've plugged your connections into the proper ports on the back. Also, you may need to do a hard reset. To do so, there is a button on the back or on the front panel, hold it down for about 5 - 10 seconds and then let go. This will restore all the setting back in the router to the default factory settings and clear out any data that sometimes get tied up.
