Need to get wireless access to my ethernet LAN - WRVS4400N

I've got a LAN with a pfsense Firewall / DHCP server. I used to use a WRT54G for wireless access to the network but it recently fried. I purchased a WRVS4400n to replace it but I'm having trouble configuring it to work like my old WRT54G. Here's what I need:

T1 -> Firewall / DHCP -> SR2024 Switch -> WRVS4400N as a wireless bridge.

Try as I might, even selecting the DCHP passthrough, it doesn't work. My LAN is 192.168.1.x and my DHCP server is also the DNS server. I cannot get the WRVS4400N to work correctly on this network. I want to be able to use all of my LAN resources from the wireless connection, but it won't. Can someone please help?

You need to setup the DHCP relay on the device - read the docs that came with the device.

Thanks, but it doesn't work. The device gets an IP just fine but it does not do any DHCP relaying. Even when I manually set my laptop to a LAN IP and connect it to a wired port it is unable to get to the internet. The documentation doesn't mention much about setting up a DHCP relay. Any additional help would be much appreciated.
