Reading the manual doesn't always help ...

It should have been so simple ... all I wanted to do was waste an hour or two playing Kameo on my XBox 360 while the wife was out.

But ...

It was necessary for me to reconfigure my D-Link Ethernet-to-Wireless bridge to conform to my home subnet (new router is 192.168.0.x, bridge was expecting 192.168.1.x). Anyways ... for TWO HOURS I tried factory resetting the bridge, changing the cable used to hard configure it and even resorted to two laptops and a desktop machine in case something, somewhere was going wrong and I just couldn't see it.

It turns out that nothing was wrong, but D-Link fail to mention that in order to reset the bridge to it's factory defaults you have to hold the bloody reset switch in for 10 seconds ...

There's nothing like good documentation, is there ?
