I installed a linksys router, everything is working as it should.
Tried the tweak test at dsl and it says I'm not pingable. Is this right or did I do something wrong?
Also in the w2k/pro registry I can't find the mtu setting. I thought it was under the interface listings.....t

You know your router has a built in firewall, right? You must disable the firewall to perform certain tests a DSLReports. Search for this and I think your problem will be solved. Under the Advaced settings in your router web-based utility, you should be able to disable "Block Wan Request", this will make your comp pingable and possibly solve your problem. Don't leave it like this, however.
