Very Interesting Linksys Router Problem

steve-hamilton · 10-31-2005, 04:03 PM

The gist of the problem is i run a wired linksys router from a cable connection, haven't changed or done anything to cause the problem, and now, anyweb page hosted from a certain individual host (which we've narrowed down) will not load on any machine running off the router.

Here's a thread that will show the progression of the problem, the steps already taken, and the task at hand...

If anyone is able to shed any light on my situation, i'd be greatly appreciative....you can also take the pride in knowing i've ran this problem past about 20 tech's, and no-one has been able to solve the problem (although many have helped narrow it down)

THANKS IN ADVANCE,

Steve Schmelzle

Well, the thread link you gave didn't go anywhere, so I'll start from scratch. Since it's all of the computers, have you tried:

Connect a single computer to the cable modem and see if you can access the site.

Reset the router to factory defaults.

Download the latest firmware for the router.

Try a different router.
