Havin a problem with my brother's router. He says it hasn't been working right ever since his power went out about two weeks ago. Almost assuming the worst but I'd like to see if I can get it to work first.
The computer connects fine to the internet when connected directly to the cable modem. But, the Linksys setup program says otherwise. (Using Linksys BEFW11S4 (http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?prid=173&scid=0) btw.) I have all my internet settings set to default on the computer. Optain IP address automatically and what not.
Connecting the computer to the router I can access the router's Web Setup tool and enter all the internet settings needed for a static IP address, but still nothing. I figured doing this would work temporarily but it didn't.
Sorry if this doesn't make much since. I won't have time to call tech support for him until after Wednesday whenever I get off work.
Thanx
