Woodenthings i have linksys befsr41 cable/dsl router w/4 port my cable provider gave me a router that has only one internet port but i have two computers will this linksys make it able to hook up two computers? also one is a mac and one is a pc, will that have any effect on it?  also, i have no driver for this linksys, do i need one?

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE CONECTED THE MODEM OR INTERNET PROVIDER ROUTER TO YOUR WAN ROUTER LINE, THIS IS THE YELLOW PORT.
RESET YOUR INTERNET PROVIDER BOX AND YOUR LINKSYS ROUTER . BHOOT AT THE SOME TIME

If the router is already set up, all you should have to do is run cable from router to xbox. Xbox should be set to automatically detect settings.

hi there, you need to configure the router first to connect over the internet.

checked if everything is properly connected, modem-router to the computer, checked the lights on the router and the modem as well if it is properly lit up.

if your ISP(Internet Provider) is cable then you need to clone the mac address of the computer, if you are running DSL, you need to input the username and password of your account from your ISP.

Accessing the router setup screen, open IE and type on the address bar 192.168.1.1 then nothing for username and password is admin.

on the setup screen you will see there Internet connection type, by default it is automatic configuration if you have cable connection as your Internet then leave it that way and look for mac address clone sub tab.

if you are running dsl for the Internet connection type you need to put PPPoE and input there your username and password from your ISP. then in everything you do you need to save the settings there.

Since you did not include your exact model number and type of internet provider I cannot give you more specific instructions. Although you can refer to the links below on how to set it up. If you require further assistance just reply to this and give me the model number of your ISP and the model of your router. Also answer this question " When you plug your computer to your modem do you get online automatically or do you need a username and password"

if you are from the east coast,you need to configure your new linksys router for a ussername and password which is usually provided to you by your Internet Service Provider
if you are from the west coast,after you connect the new linksys, you must be good to go for internet usage.

If your router is a BEFSR41 it does not have a wireless option on it. It is just a wired cable/dsl router.

First, you need to get into the user interface for the router.  To do that, just open your web browser, type in 198.168.1.1 & hit enter.  A login prompt will pop up if you're able to access the router.

If you've never done this before, the username is blank & the password is admin

What, exactly do you want to do with the NAT firewall?

To enable/disable NAT: click on setup, then click on advanced routing.

To filter Internet NAT redirection: click on security, then click on filters.

You can find this information in the User guide provided by LinkSys at:

Select your version number, then click on User Guide when it comes up.  User guides & Interfaces for the BEFSR41 are almost identical on every version.
