I did what volto suggested, and I still have a problem. I get a good connection from an outside wireless access point...it's just that every 5 minutes or so I get disconnected and then reconnected. This wouldn't be so bad, but it interrupts my downloads and I have to redownload until I eventually give up. I also can't stay in chatrooms very long because of the periodic disconnections.

If the walls in your house are made of lathe and plaster or concrete block, then the performance of WiFi through all the walls in your house will be very bad. The signal that you are receiving from your neighbor's modem is probably only going through two walls (the outside wall of their house and the outside wall of your house), while the signal from your modem is probably going through at least 4 or 5 walls.
I suggest that you do not buy a new modem, but buy a wireless access point, a spool of CAT6 cable and two Leviton RJ45 wall jacks. Run the CAT6 cable from the modem to your bedroom, install the Leviton RJ45 jacks on both ends of the cable, and then connect the wireless access point to the the jack in the bedroom and the modem to the jack near to it.
This will expand the wireless coverage in your house and allow you to buy much better wireless device than QWest would ever sell to you.
Here is a suggestion for Wireless Access Point.
You can buy the CAT6 cable and Leviton RJ45 jacks at Home Depot or Lowes.

please check that whether your network(swithed connected PC) related to your linksys ip address(default ip)

To Configure the Router with Internet Access
Connect to one of the wireless router/access point's LAN Ethernet ports, turn off its DHCP server, and give the wireless router a static IP on your LAN:

1. Connect a PC directly to a LAN port on the wireless router with an Ethernet cable.
2. Power on the wireless router/access point.
3. Reboot the PC.
4. Log in to the wireless router though a browser. (Usually 192.168.1.1, with User Name = admin and Password = password, unless you changed them from the defaults).
5. Go to the LAN IP menu and disable the wireless access point’s DHCP server by unchecking Use router as DHCP server.
6. Select LAN IP, and change the IP to 192.168.1.99.
7. Click Apply to save the settings. You will lose the connection to the wireless router/access point , since its IP changed.
8. Log in to the wireless router/access point with the URL: http://192.168.1.99
9. Connect one of the wireless router's Local (LAN) ports to your existing network.

This completes the wireless router/access point configuration.

• You can now log in to the wireless router/access point at its new address of http://192.168.1.99 and configure wireless features such as WEP and Access Control List
• UPnP, DMZ, Port Forwarding, and Port Triggering are not used on the wireless router/access point, and it doesn't matter how they are configured.

1. Configure the LAN IP address to be within the same subnet as your PCs.
   • Take care not to use an IP address already being used.
   • Limit the number of addresses in the DHCP range and assign an IP address outside of the range to the router you want to use as the Access Point.
2. Disable DHCP on the wireless router/access point.
3. Connect one of the LAN ports on the wireless router/access point to a LAN port on the Router.
4. Configure the SSID and any security settings on the wireless PCs to match the wireless router/access point's SSID and security settings.

a. SSIDs must be the same on all wireless devices. (These are case-sensitive: netGEAR is not the same as NETGEAR.)
b. Tip: Make sure the wireless PCs can connect before configuring WEP, WPA-PSK, or other wireless encryption.

You can secure your Wireless Network from your ZyAIR Acces Point.

Login to the Access Point as follows (make sure that it is connected to the Computer):

1. Start the Web Browser like Internet Explorer or Firefor or Safari.

2. Type 192.168.1.2 as the URL.

3. Type "1234" (default) as Password.

4. Go to the Wireless LAN Setup option.

5. Set the Wireless Network Password (either WEP or WPA type).

Done.

You may also refer the User Guide of the ZyAIR Acces Point page # from 40 to 60 for more information about this.


Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!

If the wireless works okay, then you need to add the printer to your pc. Go to printers in the control panel, select add printer, and follow the prompts. If still no good , let me know if the make/model of the printer and whether it is connected directly to a pc on the network, or plugged into a router/switch with an ethernet cable.

If you are using Internet Explorer, try Firefox.

You need to connect the access apoint directly to a pc with a CAT5 cable then set up a static ip on the pc which I assume you know how to do it, for the static ip put 192.168.0.5 subnet is 255.255.255.0 and gateway is 192.168.0.1 then save the settings, then check first if there's a good connection between the access point and pc, go to the command prompt then type PING 192.168.0.50 if you receive 4 replies go now open the http://192.168.0.50 if you receive 4 request time out reset the access point and and ping it again if still 4 request time out after you reset it replace that access point.

i reset my ECB 3610s but can not open the web with ip 192.168.1.1

hello!
-- what is the exact model number of your access point and router?
-- what is the ip address of your access point and router?
-- what is the operating system of your computer?
-- Is your computer directly connected to the router?
-- Do you have a wireless computer? what is the model number of the wireless adapter

if you want to configure your access point with your router you may try the ff:
Step 1: Connect the Ethernet port of the access point to one of the Ethernet ports of the router
Step 2: Make sure the power adapter is plugged to an available power outlet
Step 3: Check if the corresponding LEDs on the access point are lit
Step 4: After connecting the devices together, configure the access point’s wireless settings
Step 5: Open the access point’s web-based setup page
Step 6: When the access point’s web-based setup page opens, change the SSID, Channel, and Wireless Security.

What kind of cable do you have connected from the DLINK to the Router? Is it an ethernet cable 3,5e,6?
