Ricky,

I don't have experience with Linux and Linksys products, but from the 
experience I have had with Windows, I have found that Linksys products do 
not generally like "hot swapping".  Their routers don't like you to plug 
anything into them while it is running.  I have solved problems on several 
occasions by turning the router and everything connected to it off, 
including the cable modem.  Leave them off for a minute or so, then power 
up first the router, then the cable modem, then the machines connected to 
them, with a several second pause between each power-up to allow 
initialization.  Might help.
