I have a wireless/wirelinelinksys router connected to the broadband internet

There are 2 connections via cat5 cable and 3 devices via ethernet.

all was well until this afternoon when 2 of the devices no longer connect via ethernet (get a message - limited or no connectivity)... so I find a cat5 cable & attach it to each device... no change. yet one of the devices connected via wireless is working just fine.

Can you help me figure out what is going on please? How do I fix this.. One of the devices is my work laptop [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70394-bawlout.gif[/img]

Thanks in advance

Kia

no mac filtering was on so mi couldnt understand how wireless worked on one pc but not on the others..

couldnt understand how the cat 5 cable didnt work on the other pcs either [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70394-bawlout.gif[/img]

decide fi switch out de linksys router to the isp supplied d link... got connectivity to the lan but forgotten the password to the admin screen so could set up the ppp0e (yes dis company still require the field to be populated).

Call the company and den we fix the ppp0e issue but dem im realise seh sinting not right wid the ONT so had to reboot the ONT.

Ok reboot the ONT
set the wireless settings mac filtering off (as usual)
reboot router one of the nonworking laptops worked butthe other didnt [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70394-bawlout.gif[/img]

Re: Please help?

no the linksys router is back up & running..

We have negative clue as to what happened but as the ONT had to be rebooted I blame the ISP [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70388-shameonyou.gif[/img]

Re: Please help?

it appears to be that the linksys router does not like thunder & lightning [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70392-silly.gif[/img]

same issue today... so just switched out the routers back to the dlink and will reconnect the linksys another day

I have a couple of routers that just went south on their own.
Never knew that could happen.

Kia if you forget your Admin Password on a Router just push reset, of course you will lose all your firmware upgrades and permissions, but that can be remedied.

Speaking of which, don't just buy a router and run it for a year without checking the manufacturers website to see if they have update firmware. Of course in a year your router will be obsolete anyway.
