Problem with Airport Express & Wired router bridging.

I am running a 12inch powerbook with an APExpress basestation, which is connected to a Corega 2port router. The other port going to a pc. I never had this problem untill I did a clean format and install of Tiger.

I am using Azureus. I am aware of the need to have open ports on my wired router and I have this set up with no problems and have been using it for a long time with fast speeds. However with Tiger installed Azureus says there is a NAT error. I changed the port Azureus uses a few times but still keep getting the error. I believe the APexpress is my problem, i have read about bridging and feel this may solve my problem. I can't seem to find any information anywhere about how to actually 'bridge' my wired router and express together. I guess the aiport setup assistant is involved but im not sure which settings.

Can someone please give me details on how to set up the APsetupassistant to bridge my router and apexpress basestation.

Thanks
 
I have disabled the "Distribute IP addresses" option in the APE admin utility, that (the APE help says is the way to turn bridging on), however I am still getting a NAT error in Azureus. Any help would be great.
 
As I said in my original post. I ahve port forwarding setup up on my wired router that is working fine. I have also tried to just open some ports on the APE but when I go to the mapping tab in the admin util the 'add' button is not selectable. What am i doing wrong here?

Thanks
