Had a 12 hour powerfailure and now I can't get my WRT54G Linksys router to operature wireless internet or wireless printer. Rebooted everything- computer, router & internet cable- internet and printer works fine directly to computer when not using router. Compter says printer is offline and wireless laptop will not conect to internet thru router. Light on router are on.

Hi, you can set up an Internet access policy through the router that will block Internet access for specific computers. The Internet Access Policy screen can be found in the router's configuration software, under Access Restrictions and then Internet Access. You can choose time ranges to block and specific computers or devices for it to apply to.
If you don't have the user guide that came with your WRT54G router, you can download a free PDF version of it here:

You need to scan and view available wireless network in printer select your home network (linksys).
Once the printer is ready to go, plug it in and power it on. There should be an interactive set up screen on the printer that you can use to indicate the appropriate wireless settings. You'll want to use the same security settings on the printer that you have set on your wireless router. I recommend using the WEP settings so you are not broadcasting any of your documents or online activity the neighborhood.

Unplug both router and modem. Disconnect modem from router. Wait 5 mins and reconnect everything.

You can make the router working even without using the CD. Who is your ISP? Are you having concern with wired or wireless connection?

YOU NEED TO CALL THE 800 # FOR LINKSYS AND THEY WILL CONFIGURE THE ROUTER WITH YOU FOR FREE OVER THE PHONE JUST HAVE PATIENCE THE TECHS ARE INDIAN.

You must keep everything on the same subnet. Only allow the router to be DHCP and keep everything on 192.168.1.x subnet. You are going to have alot of problems talking across subnets

Try to leave of air for an hour, untill its cold, then reconect it, if the time untill it quit conecting is consitrly longer, your Linksys is dying.

Make sure that the WRT54G has an internet signal coming in. Is the other DSL router have a wireless component to it? How are you wiring everything? How many ports does your DSL router have? If only one, go from the DSL router to the wireless router. Plug in your phones (VOIP) to the WRT
