I'v got a linksys wrt 350n wireless router running dd-wrt firmware. I just moved and updraged from dsl to cable for my internet. When I connect the modem directly to any of my computers it works perfactly fine no problems and great speed. Yet when I connect the modem to my router and try and rebuild my network the problems begin. At first after I connected the router to the modem I couldn't get anything to work no ip address nothing. I did some reading around this board and tried cloaning the mac address of the modem. I finnaly got an ip address but once I connect to the router either wirelessly or directl with a cable once I open up my browser its jumps me directly to a mediacom, my isp, webpage asking for user account number and activation code. I called mediacom and got those numbers and codes I put them in and click the next botton it starts all over again. Mediacom says its a security mesaure they use to insure no one is illegaly trying to use a hacked cable modem to get free internet access and that there is something either wrong with my router or certant settings that need to be altered due to the dd-wrt firmware. I'v tried everything I can think of and nother works. I'm totaly stumped on this one and need some help please. I went to the dd-wrt forums but either no one is there or not willing to help. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thank you
