I guess that this must be a Linksys thing then. Everything works fine for a few years and then it digs in its heels and refuses to load the site(s) that you have to be able to access. No solutions for the Linksys router, but I had a D-Link WBR-1310 sitting in a box new and unused here at

Not sure why this is happening. My Linksys WRT54GS router just suddenly (yesterday a.m.) started blocking a group of sites that I administer. I was working on one of the sites and it started getting slower and slower, then finally cut out. I know the sites are working because if I plug

Also, DO NOT SAVE YOUR router password in your browser protected cache! CRSF, MITM ssl, XSS exploits and other javascript naughtiness can play havok on your sanity! Do not do it. Make sure it's a great number of characters. Also, DO NOT advertise your SSID; USE WEP2 (just using Mac address
