I cant do that my parents computer is plugged into the modem...and theres has the same problem.
Are they plugged directly into the modem or the Linksys router ? Try connecting thier computer right into the modem and reboot both their computer and the modem. Let me know what happens then..
Please try plugging your computer right into the modem. This will eliminate your linksys router, which is a very common reason to this problem.
