Why are you erasing the config?? Describe your LAN environment - is there a DHCP server? What domain are you running on? Are there multiple domains with routers? How about your laptop? When you erase the 403's config and plug it into the LAN, it will look for a DHCP server and go into client mode if it finds one (in theory), otherwise it will go to 192.168.42.1 and act as a DHCP server.

Configure the 403 with your laptop connected directly, configuring the IP settings as required to plug it into your LAN. Then, DO NOT erase the config, just connect the uplink.

Oh yeah - you want the 403 set to a static IP address.
