I assume your Linksys is a wireless router?\n\nMake sure that the built-in adapters are enabled or turned on.  Make sure you're not running any firewall or security software, it'll conflict with the firewall of your router.  Try setting up the wireless network without a wireless security enabled first.\n\nFor wireless security, you may need to test if your laptops can use WPA.  Mine didn't, so I stayed with WEP.\n\nSome modems don't have a power button.  You may just need to unplug the power cord.  Or maybe if you have a switch or button that may say "Standby".\n\nOh, yeah... if your ISP is Cable Internet and you can get online when wired to the modem, you may need to do 2 things:\n\n1. Change the router's IP to 192.168.2.1 because some modems have the same IP address as the router.\n\n2.Do a Mac clone.  Comcast authenticates users through MAc addresses - w/ Linksys, just access the router page and in BAsic Setup look for a tab called "Mac Clone" (I think).... then enable it and save.  \n\nHope this helps!   :)

You should be able to configure your router so that incoming traffic to each of three particular ports (or ranges of ports) is forwarded by the router to each internal system.\n\nIf you need web access to the internal systems, you'll need to include the port number in the web address:\n\nhttp://www.something.com:1234\n\nwhere www.something.com is set up to go to the external router, and the port 1234 is forwarded by the router to one of the internal systems.

Yes the best wireless router you can use is Linksys WRT54G in this case you have a modem cum router so you will have an internal ip of 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 something like that ,check that and follow the list. Please follow the list\n\n  \nPlease follow these directions to setup your Broadband modem:\n\nConnecting your Broadband Modem to the Router\n\n1.      First connect directly to your Broadband Modem without the router and verify that you can get on line.\n\n2.      Once you've verified that you can get onto the internet without the router please proceed. If you can not please contact your ISP for further assistance.\n\n3.      Now unplug the Ethernet cable that connects to your Broadband Modem from the back of your computer.\n\n4.      Take the connection that you just unplugged from the back of your computer and connect it to the WAN port of the router.\n\n5.      Take a different Ethernet cable and plug it into port closest to the WAN port, or into the LAN port.\n\n6.      Look on the front of the router.   The following lights should be illuminated:\n\n-           Power\n\n-           WAN Link\n\n-          Link/Act (On the port that you connected your computer to)\n\n-          Note If other lights other than Link/Act are illuminated on this port, that is normal\n\n-          You may have a few other lights illuminated depending on the model number router you have, but the 3 above must be illuminated for proper connection.\n\n7.      Hold the Reset button on the router for 30 seconds or more\n\n8.      Restart your computer\n\nConfiguring the Router\n\n1.      Go to your desktop and double click on Internet Explorer (Located on the Start Menu in Windows XP)\n\n2.       When "Internet Explorer" opens type http://192.168.1.1 into the "Address" bar and click on Go\n\n3.      The "Enter Network Password" window will appear.\n\n4.       Skip user name and type admin (admin is the default password) as the password, and click OK\n\n5.      Change the LAN IP address from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.0.1**\n\n6.       Click Apply\n\n**NOTE:  Once you click apply you will no longer access the router via http://192.168.1.1, but http://192.168.0.1\n\nFinishing the Setup\n\n1.      Shut down your PC.\n\n2.      Unplug the power from the back of the router.\n\n3.      Unplug the power from the modem.\n\n4.      Wait for 30 second.\n\n5.      Power up the modem.\n\n6.      Wait for the lights to stop blinking.\n\n7.      Power up the router.\n\n8.      Start up your computer.\n\n9.    Surf the internet.\n \n \n\nNow to setup wireless\n\nTypically most non-Linksys branded wireless adapters have their own built-in Configuration utilities. If unsure on how to use them, please see the Wireless Adapters documentation or contact the Manufacturer of the Wireless Adapter. If Windows XP is being used, then the Wireless Adapter may use Windows XP’s built-in configuration utility, which would be the same configuration as Linksys products under Windows XP. If this is the case, try the following instructions:\n\nClick on the Start button and click on the Run option. \nWhen the “Run” window opens, type ncpa.cpl into the “Open” field and click on the OK button. \nWhen the “Network Connections” window opens, right click on the Wireless Network Connection icon and click on the View Available Wireless Networks option. \nClick on the SSID that the Wireless Network is using (linksys is the default SSID on all Linksys Wireless products). \nAfter clicking on the SSID of the Wireless Network, there will be either a check box stating, Allow me to connect to the selected network, even though it is not secure, or “Network Key” and “Confirm network key” fields. \nIf there is a check box, check it, then click on the Connect button \nIf there are “Network Key” and “Confirm network key” fields, then input the Wireless Networks WEP Key, then click the Connect button. \nAfter clicking the “Connect

Type 192.168.1.1 on your url box and hit enter. You can check your settings and change them as you please.

Hook everything up correctly and then put in the disc it comes with and follow the setup directions.  If you need to do it manually, open up a browser and enter the address (http://192.168.1.1), then leave the username blank and put the password as admin... once you get into the setup, just change your Network name, and secure it with a WEP key.  Then save the changes.

Make sure that the desktop machine doesn't have the firewall enabled.\n\nControl Panel > Windows Firewall > Disable\n\n\nThe Linksys is also going to have options in the menu to allow or disallow VPN connections through it.  The default is "allow", so unless you've changed that it should be fine.

By MAC addresses you mean IP addresses.  MAC addresses are the numbers uniquely identifying the network card and are burned into that cards firmware.\n\nHave you fully explored the menus on your Linksys?  I never saw one that couldn't be configured.  You would not configure the addresses for each computer on the router per se.  You would modify which range of IP addresses are handed out for dynamic machines.  So instead of "Start handing out IP addresses at 192.168.1.2 and up" set it so it gives them out at 192.168.1.10 and up.  (Just in case your friend brings over their laptop and wants to plug in.  The DHCP server is still there for him.)  \n\nThen on each computer you don't want the IP address changing on, set the IP address as static and assign it using the numbers excluded from your DHCP sever range.\n\n192.168.1.1 --Router\n192.168.1.2 --Redhat Box\n192.168.1.3 --WindowsBox\n192.168.1.10 --Dynamic\n...

Try to get in to your router page again. Just launch Internet Explorer and type 192.168.1.1. The username is <blank> and the password is "admin". If you're using a DSL connection, look for internet connection type and change it to PPPOE.  Type in the username and password provided by your ISP. If you don't know what it is contact your ISP.\n\nIf you're using a cable connection, under <Setup> click on the subcategory <MAC Address Clone>. Click on <Enable> and then click on clone your PC's MAC. Then click on <Save Settings>. \n\nIf these steps does not work, turn off your modem,unplug the router from the power and turn off the computer as well (the one directly connected to the router. After powering off everything, wait for 20 seconds and then turn on the modem first. Wait for the lights to go stable and then power up the router, wait for 15 seconds then turn on the computer. \n\nIf this still won't work try to call up linksys.

You have to enable port forwarding.  So lets say you have a webserver at each site.  You could forward port 80 (HTTP) to an internal host.\n\nPeople could connect to your webserver by entering the ip address of your linksys.

Generally, the configuration is done through a web interface.\n\nIf you haven't modified the configuration, try opening your web browser to http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1 (standard default addresses). If the router is made by Linksys, use the username admin and the password password.\n\nIf that doesn't work, go to a command prompt on your workstation to determine the IP. Run ipconfig, and the default gateway of your computer is the IP of the router. Type that IP into your web browser.

there should be a pdf file in the cd that came with the router that explains how to do it if you do not have acrobat reader you can get it at www.adobe.com good luck

Read the manual.  It tells you how to set up your WEP encryption.  Also, check the wireless networking forum on dslreports.com.  They also have a Linksys specific forum.

browse to your linksys through your web browser - login...click on the security tab - on the line that says firewall protection - click on disable...but uhh...i wouldn't recommend that you do that...
