Since Cisco/Linksys tech support seems to be just reading their script I was hoping someone on here might be able to help me out.
I have an old Linksys WRT54G that I'd like to setup as a WAP on my porch so I can get a decent signal outside of the house. The problem I'm having is I can't even get to the router's GUI to change the settings. I have it hard wired to just this pc and it works fine (I'm using it now), but when I type in 192.168.1.1 I get a "the connection was reset" page. I get the same message with the router only connected to the pc. When I do an ipconfig/all, I get a default gateway of 71.58.50.1. I tried entering that and I get the same message. I can ping that default gateway WITH the router connected to my modem, but can not ping it when the router is disconnected from the modem. It's almost like the router is using the modem's IP as its default gateway.
Is this possible and does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks! Kevin
Oh and I've reset the router quite a few times but that doesn't seem to change anything.
