I have the UPC Cisco modem and a WRT54GL connected togther by ethernet,
haven't tried wireless bridging.
The problem I found with the Cisco router is that it wouldn't pass UPNP-AV
broadcast packets from the ethernet interface to the wireless interface, so
I have to use the WRT54GL for the UPNP-AV network.
