cisco 870w universal client
Hello experts.
I'm fairly new to Cisco routers and mostly use the sdm to configure my equipment.
I'm trying to set up a cisco 870w as a wireless universal client.
So far I've gotten the wireless the 870w to connect wirelessly as a client but my wired pc is unable to see anything on the parent side of the wireless connection.
I’m assuming that the Universal Client works similar to a Cisco Aironet Workgroup Bridge in that the wireless portion of the connection is transparent to the wired clients and they will be able to obtain their IP address from the DHCP on the parent side of the wireless network. Currently it doesn’t do this so I’ve programmed the IP manually.
Has anyone else experienced this or have any advice?

Look at this (its for 1800 but its the same radio)...

Thank you for your replies and sorry for taking so long to get back with you.
Vikrant - For the past couple evenings I've been working on learning how the CLI works so the answer to your question is yes I am comfortable with the CLI.
craigbeck- Thank you for the link but I think my radio settings are good. Wireless connection between the client and parent seems to work fine. It's the link between the radio and Ethernet ports that doesn't seem to work.
--------------------------
If it helps here's my running config.... I think I'm close but just missing something that might be obvious to you.

Thank You for the configuration.
I'm still not able to get it to work.
It looks like it wants to work. When I try to access a webpage
from a computer on the Universal Client it talks to the parent radio but nothing comes up.
Can you check my config to see if I've done something wrong?
I noticed your config looks has a dsl interface for the WAN.
Mine uses a regular ethernet port FastEthernet4. Do I need to have it
set to a specific setting?
Thank You for your help!
