This is my fovorite thing about linksys routers, they hate everything. Unfortunately I still haven't figured out a technical way to fix this problem, but usually pressing the reset button on the modem and the router then unplugging them for 3 minutes and plugging them back in works. If thta doesn't work try going into the status page of the router and tell us what that says.
Desk top to internet is OK. How about Destop through Router connection to Internet OK? Assuming you want to connect wireless from Lap top to Network, need to configure correctly for wireless in Router. If you connect Lap top to router by wire and it didn't work that mean your router is bad.
Connect the router directly via lan to your computer.
goto setup of the router: usuallly via the ip-adress of your router (see manual, usually: 192.168. ***.*)
Now look at the network security-settings .

HI
The following info. might help you fixing the above problem:
For WIRELESS CONNECTION follow these Steps: (Note: Keep the Ethernet cableplugged in unless we set up WIRELESS) 1: Click on Home Network 2: Wlan Click on Configure which is the 3rd last icon on the Top Make sure that the option-Interface Enabled is ticked. Channel selection should be ob Manuall. Wireless channel can be 11( thats what is in my case). Encryption is again depending on what type of sercurity you wants. I would suggest go for WPA. After editing the above info. do not fail to note the KEY before clicking Apply Now just enable the WIRELESS CONNECTION on your PC / Laptop, Pull the SSID of your router and Click connect. It will ask for the WEP/WPA key? Enter the key and Click connect.
