Router problem

Topic

New Reply

have a Linksys WRT54G wireless router. I’m connected to a DSL modum on Prodigy Aire – ISP is Telnor – location San Felipe Baja California, Mexico.

I used this router last year with no problems, but was ofline for several months and when I hooked it back up I have some problems. I use Firefox but had the same problem using IE.

I am unable to access some websites. Not all as many of my regular sites come up without a problem. But the links from the Washington Post won’t open – start but never open. Also Speedtest.net, San Diego Tribune and several others that I use regularly. One site opened but did not display all the data fields – no user name block, but one for password.

I hook my laptop up directly to the modem and have absolutely no problems. I looked at all the settings but don’t see anything obvious. It’ll be a while before I can get another router so can anyone help me get this one back in shape?

Thanks

Lou

Lou,

Welcome to the lounge…

Check the DNS settings on the Setup page. Below is a graphic from my router, same as yours, using the OpenDNS servers.

May the Forces of good computing be with you!

Hah! Speedtest requires Adobe Flash to work! Are you running the 64-bit browser? There is no Flash for that yet. Find the 32-bit version in your start menu and run that instead. You should have Flash in that. It sounds to me like you have a Flash problem to me! The Internet Explorer 64-bit browser has a version loaded in the x86 32-bit layer as well. Try running that next time.
