Need help w/ my Linksys WRT54G router

I just installed my router, the Linksys WRT 54G and now some of my webpages on IE aren't opening. I don't think I set up any security measures yet. I try to go to google, ebay, etc and nothing happens. I go to espn, here, etc and it works. I don't know if it's by chance my connection sucks and is being dropped, are those webpages being blocked, or what other problem it may be. Help would be appreciated.
 
Hmm, unlikely the router would be doing anything to selectively block those sites. When you say nothing happens, I assume you mean no error page, no response of any kind? Because when the router blocks something it typically returns a page saying that the connection was blocked by an administrator.
 
Problem seems to have gone away.

Strange thing was I tried going to setup my router and it kept saying my administrator password was incorrect. I went back to my setup cd and chose a different password. I'm worried about security issues. During setup it asks for a choice of WEP 64bit, WEP 128bit, WPA personal, WPA 2 personal. Can someone tell me what this means? There's no documentation w/ the cd. Also, is this sufficient or do I need a separate software like norton firewall,etc.? Sorry for the newbie questions.
