If you happened to change your pass from admin, at one point, just hit the little reset button.

For future reference (or printing on the printers at work ;)), linksys has all manuals in pdf format on their website

What exactly was wrong with it? I have never had any problems with the several Linksys routers I have used.

It would constantly hang and I couldn't even play games online as every 30 seconds I would get major PL

I suppose you never updated your firmware did you...

My linksys sucked to start out with, but I updated the firmware and I couldn't be happier... I wish it had how many gigs of data had passed through it since I got it lol

any way to find out what bios revision mine is? is it in the websetup thing somewhere? i don't see it.

mines pretty new though, but the bios on the websites also pretty recent:p

I updated it everytime a new one came out hoping that it would fix the problem. It never did

it didnt't really start acting up too bad until about 6 months into it. Then I assumed it was my cable connection, it wasn't until i got a new router that the problems went away. By the time I realised it was the router the waranty was up.

hold the reset button down for ~15 secs (or until the lights blink) for default settings.

My linksys is starting to piss me off. From the time i turn on the comp, the internet WILL not work until a program calls on it. And even after then, the internet still won't work until 15 seconds after. I HATE WAITING. I might try to borrow a netgear, see what happens.
