Has anyone setup these two to play together nicely. I've just
recommended the WRT054G to a friend and bigpond are not being helpful as

I'm sure it can be done, but what incantation?
His setup is (hopefully)
PC . wifi card ~~~~~~ WRT054G -- CableModem -----------> Bigpond
^^ ethernet cable
^^^ Wireless
I'm going to answer this by saying that I'm reasonably sure
it can't be done. Bigpond cable require a proprietary connection
protocol that is not pptp, is not pppoe, and requires a specific
login program that they only provide for Windows and MacOS.
You can get an unsupported one for Linux called bpalogin but
I'm not even going to hazard a guess about how you'd go about
installing that on a WRT054G.
