Wireless AP issue

About 3 days ago all devices quit working with our wireless AP (Linksys RE3000W).

I have a Brighthouse supplied Ubee.  The Ubee wireless is pathetic... no range at all.

I purchased a Linksys RE3000W and configured it.  The RE3000W has an Ethernet cable attaching to the Ubee.  The RE3000W is 3 feet from the Ubee.

All devices could connect to the RE3000W (named RE3000W) and get out on the Internet... now they cannot.  The Ubee wireless ID is Ubee.

I take a laptop and connect to the RE3000W and I can hit the Ubee.  From the Ubee I can ping Google using the Ubee 'Ping Tool'.  If I unplug the Ehternet cable connecting the RE3000W and the Ubee I lose the Ubee.

This leads me to believe that I am connecting to the RE3000W and am then, through the cable, hitting the Ubee.

This also leads me to believe that the cable and both ports (Ubee side and RE3000W side) are good.

Any thoughts as to what is up?
