HELP Can't connect with Vonage router, WRT54G, and Roadrunner

| PLEASE HELP!!! I have tried and tried to get Xbox Live to work, to no
avail. Here is my configuration:
Toshiba PCX1100U ==> Linksys RT31P2 Vonage router ==> Linksys WRT54G
wireless router ==> Xbox wireless using a Microsoft MN-740 wireless
network card (as well as 3 hard wired and 2 wireless PCs)
The Vonage router is configured to receive an IP address dynamically
from the cable modem. It has DHCP disabled and has an available ip
address range of 192.168.15.100 through 192.168.15.150.
The Linksys WRT54G is configured to receive it's traffic through static
ip address 192.168.15.100 with subnet 255.255.255.0, gateway
192.168.15.1, and DNS servers 24.25.5.52 and 24.25.5.53. It has DHCP
disabled and has an available ip address range of 192.168.1.100 through
192.168.1.150.
The 3 hard wired and 2 wireless PCs are TCP/IP are configured to use ip
addresses 192.168.1.100 through 192.168.1.104 with subnet
255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.1.1, and DNS servers 24.25.5.52 and
24.25.5.53. All of these PCs work fine connecting to the internet as
well as playing online games like Halo2 and FarCry.
I am using static ip addresses mainly because I am running a web site
and an ftp server on one of the machines, and it is a pain to have to
reconfigure everything if it gets a new ip address handed to it.
Now, here's the problem. I have tried to connect to Xbox Live using
every possible setup scenario. It connects to the wireless router just
fine, but when it tries to connect to the internet, it gets the
standard error "The network gateway could not be reached. Verify the
ip addresses match the settings provided by your ISP. I have
configured Xbox Live to use static ip address 192.168.1.120 with subnet
255.255.255.0 and DNS servers 24.25.5.52 and 24.25.5.53, just like all
the PCs have. I have also done this with forwarding port 88 UDP, port
3074 UDP, and port 3074 TCP to 192.168.1.120 on the WRT54G and the same
ports forwarded to 192.168.15.100 on the Vonage router.
What am I doing wrong? Does Xbox Live just not work with two routers,
or using static ip addresses, or both? Am I wasting my time here? I
have seen numerous posts on Vonage's web site and others describing
this setup and having had success with it, but nobody has posted how
they have the routers and the Xbox configured for network settings?
Please Please Please HELP!!!

> Hey,
try going through wired instead of wireless. If u have a modem connect it to
your router and have an ethernet cable going from your router to your xbox.
you may need 2 ethernet cables. you may need a ethernet extender if your wire
is short or get a extra long wire. change your settings on your xbox, and it
should work.
hope it works if not sorry
Good Luck
Ricky

| You mentioned you have set Static IP and DNS servers but you don't mention
setting the gateway IP address on the xbox. What gateway IP are you giving
the xbox?
