linksys annoying problem

nickmaduro · 05-07-2009, 02:28 PM

I have a Linksys compact wireless-G Broadband router model no.WRT54GC
recently i have been having a really annoying problem with linksys whenever i want to connect to the internet with my notebook it say's connected but does not gain packets only sent packets but when i connect to wireless on my other notebook it works perfectly fine. The only way my other notebook connects is by plugging the Ethernet cable directly from the modem to the notebook (and now that also has a little tiny bit o trouble with more sent packets than recieved)

ps. i never had this problem before
help please

Remove all the stored wireless profiles in the problem notebook and search for new networks. Make sure you use the proper encryption key to reconnect.

i may not be that smart but how do i delete my stored wireless profiles??i have the proper encryption key and this is the only network we have on the whole island

View available wireless networks, then click on the link on the left for change the order of preferred networks. Remove any profiles there, then connect to a "new" network and enter the key.

I did what you told me to do but it didn't help it still say's it's connected but doesn't allow me to open ie7 or ff also is still sends a lot of packets and receives 1 per 32 sec.

I have to assume you have the incorrect encryption key, or your drivers don't support the encryption method you have programmed. You're saying that you have two machines that don't connect wirelessly?

Have you reset the router? Do either of these machines work on any wireless network?

first i don't HAVE an encryption key to acces it's unprotected the drivers support it and the hp G60-230us supports it without installing driver but my gateway MX7340 is having a lot of problems lately for instince this one also the clock keeps reseting to 22 feb 1992 also when i disconnet my keyboard (i have a keyboard because my laptop pc keyboard got wet and dont work no more ) in does ****=**=*=* that and also does it when i re connect it also i have this this where it keeps holding the delete key in but i dont have a delete key on my keyboard no more so i have to hit it to make it stop holding the delete key it is a refurbished laptop and i makes this funny twitch when i open the screen it starts flikering black and then turns black so those are all the problems and i just want you to help me on the internet problem ok
