Yes, I can access the bridge with a computer via ethernet. I can run the wizard. But once the wizard is run, it reboots the bridge (normal) and slaps a password on the bridge so that I cannot get back into it without resetting the thing to it's factory configuration. No place in the wizard or other tabs shows this password or a box to disable it. There is no further access to the bridge via ethernet or wireless at that point. The devices can SEE the bridge on the network but not access it in any way.

Googling it finds me a hint that is a bit beyond me: Some recommend setting a static IP for the bridge in my router. I'm not sure how to do that.
