Go to : http://192.168.1.1 In your browser. Check if the router is getting an IP from the outside. If it isn't, unplug your cable modem for 2 minutes and plug it back in.
If it still can't get an IP go to Linksys's support page: http://www.linksys.com/support/support.asp?spid=69 Scroll down...they have a whole section on setting up connections with Earthlink. When they say they "don't support routers" it usually means they can't provide tech support or troubleshooting. You have to go the manufacturer for support. -Dustin D'Andrea -----Original Message----- From: G-Books [mailto:G-Books@;mail.maclaunch.com] On Behalf Of george ruta Sent: Tuesday, November 12, 2002 10:42 PM To: G-Books Subject: help! with router i decided to go wireless after reading the previous posts. my pismo works fine directly connected to earthlink cable modem. it talks to and configures the linksys router (befw11s4 ver 2), but i can't get to the internet via the router, even though the wan led is lit on the router. i tried both the suggested automatic ip address and typing in the numbers manually. the isp says they don't support home networks, and i have not gotten through to linksys. any ideas out there? thanks -- george ruta - northcountry kayak **sea kayaks for upstate new york and new england** 518-677-3040, http://www.capital.net/com/nckayak -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
