Yeah on the belkin, but I’ll need to know for when the Buffalo comes in as well. OK I just found this, but right now its is making little sense to me, HAHA Im gonna have to go through it a few times. I dont get how to “log onto” the router.

I’ve recommended the wrt-54g to tons of people and never had anyone have issues with it. Slap the latest official firmware from linksys on it, setup your WPA security, then forget about it. Once or twice a year you might have to power cycle it if it locks up but that’s it.
I’ve got a laptop, desktop and iphone running wirelessly plus a desktop, xbox 360 and dish network receiver hard wired. My brother in law drops by and hops on my network with his itouch. None of these machines ever get dropouts.

to log into the router you use a web browser
1. open browser(safari, firefox, crapnet explorer, etc…)
2. navigate to the ip of the router. ex: [http://192.168.1.1](http://192.168.1.1) IF that does not work, try [http://192.168.0.1](http://192.168.0.1)
3. Enter username and password. usually admin/admin (username/password)

Oh fantastic. Thanks

could try reloading it, but I am not sure that it would help much. Give it a shot though, what’s the worst that happens? It breaks?
