I have two computers hook up to a linksys wireless router. My girlfriend accesses wireless using her macbook.
Ever since college started, I've been getting the above message and have occasionally had difficulty accessing the internet. I've reset my router and modem. What could be causing this?

How can you make your wireless network so that

1. It shows a certain webpage no matter what if you are connected to it

2nd question: How can you require a password, NO NOT THE ROUTER PASSWORD but another one once they hit internet explorer on their computer!

Yah, it's Vista Home Basic yah, and Cisco VPN 5.0.00.0340 It installs and opens up fine, but just won't connect, giving me an error:

Reason 412: The remote peer is no longer responding.

But it is, and works fine with a different laptop.

Any help greatly appreciated

Okay, I bought a brand new acer desktop, preloaded with vista home premium. I got it up and running went throuh all the stuff, and tried to connect to the internet. I have a wireless router at home and it works fine ( I have a laptop and I can connect to the internet right next to my desktop with my laptop. When I try to diagnose the problem, it gives me a message saying I don't have a wireless network adapter installed and configured. Please help, without the internet that desktop is almost worthlesss.

My neighborhood has about 5 routers on channel 6 and that is what my channel is. My guess is that is why I'm losing connection it used to work great a week ago
Also if this is the problem, how do I change the channel?

We were going to sign up for DSL access and were going to get a DSL modem. Somebody told us that a modem is no longer necessary and all you need is some kind of external box that's much cheaper. I've never heard anything about this and thought a modem was necessary. Do you or do you not need a modem for DSL access? Thanks.

Can I remove my hard disk drive or mother board and place it into another working computer to reinstall windows. I can't reinstall windows, because my hard disk drives are not set correctly, not found etc. I went into BIOS and nothing happens or it did not help. This is just a thought. Any advise will be helpful. Thanks once again

Windows XP. Linksys WRT54G.

When my internet cable is plugged directly into my computer from the wall, my computer obtains an IP address and connects to my browser no problem.

When I plug the cable from the wall into my router and then from the router into the computer, it also obtains a IP address, says I'm connected but my browser will not work. This also happens when I connect to it wirelessly.

So basically, when I go directly from the modem to my computer my internet works fine, but when I go through to router, it says it's connected (Internet and WLAN light are both on as well on the router) and has IP address but the browser will not work.

I've tried so many things, PLEASE HELP!!!

Ok. i moved into an apartment that offers free internet. there is no modem just a wall socket to connect an ethernet cable, thats what i'm on now. but i want to connect a wireless linksys router to it so i can go wireless on my laptop. i assume this connection is coming from a network as it is, so one concern that i have is, will my ip address change all the time and will it affect my wireless conection? and also how do i go about setting up my router?
