I'm sure you are right - you always are! -
but in my case my server used eth0 on 192.168.1.0 
for accessing the internet,
while the Linksys was on 192.168.2.0 joined to eth1 on the server.

Apart from the fact that I couldn't see how to access my Linksys
when it was attached to the network,
I was frightened that any change I made would stop the internet working.
perhaps for ever ...
