Pedantic?
I'll get pedantic!
What if...
Hmmmmmmmm
Nawh...
I think that "that's WAY more than enough on THIS subject!!!" is right!

PS: Which BTW, the multiple interface scenario escaped to me too!
And besides that, you can never be sure of anything with Mike! ;-)

Yeah, I saw ET's answer and considered a head-smack ;-)
On the other hand, in THIS case, since Mike hard reset the device, the chances of its being something other than /24 (or some other 'reasonable' netmask) is extremely close to nonexistent ;-)
But, in general, if you want to know what your computer thinks, ET's way is right. (Of course, if we wanted to get pedantic, I just (a nanosecond before I hit 'send') realized that there IS a case where it might not be right - consider the case of more than one (active) Ethernet device, and the eth<x> which has your linksys on it isn't the one that is the default route... ok, that's WAY more than enough on THIS subject!!! :-))

So, do ‘ifconfig’ on the PC to see what address it got (192.168.0.123 or
192.168.1.2 or whatever), and change the last octet to 1 and you should have
your linksys IP address. Hopefully ;-)
Which, BTW, this statement is mostly true for a /24 address, but no always.
If you have a lower than /24 network, the possibilities also grow significantly.
The 'ip route show|grep default' method is bullet proof.
Truth to be told though, the chances the chances that Rusty method doesn't work
in this case range from minimal to nonexistent...

well it isn't really two routes. 1 is a modem router.

Michael,
If I remember correctly, you have 2 routers. You should refer to your old conversations on this message board where myself and others described how to setup your network. I would never have hit the reset button, your issue was probably with your cabling.

Here is my setup:
I have the modem (actiontek pk5000) in the living room for my xbmc box. From there I ran a hardwire into the office into a router (linksys wrt54g) which feeds a computer in my brothers room and my main computer.
I decided to move my main computer and after I did so the internet
after the linksys would not connect. so I unplugged the linksys and reconnected
the power but that didn't help. SO I figured that maybe I needed to reconfigure
it so I pressed the reset button for 30 seconds and connected the internet port
to the computer and restarted the computer but I couldn't get into the
configuration page (192.168.1.1). I seem to remember that it was 192.168.101.1
but that didn't work either. What am I doing wrong?
