Thanks, Ed! On 02/15/10 02:09 am, Ed Durrant thus wrote : Hi Lewis, I have a Linksys WRT54G running factory firmware if I can help in some way. As it turns out, it was relatively simple: my clients' son wanted to connect his X-box to the router. Unfortunately, the instructions they (both parents and the kid) followed had them bridging the connection through a connected workstation(!) via the ethernet port (the "workstation" was a ThinkPad SL400, connected wirelessly), and assigning a static IP (on a completely different subnet with no routing information). When this didn't work (obviously), they tried all manner of reconnection for the ThinkPad, the configuration of which was totally hosed at that point, including hitting the <ahem> "reset" button on the "front of the little blue box." Naturally, this "reset" button was none other than the one-step security button, which blew away all of the Wi-Fi config I had in the box... Once I got "the rest of the story," and had a look at the WRT54G emulater, it was a simple fix to walk them through the configuration to get things back to normal. :-) Note to self: Don't ever assume things are as easy for anyone else as they may appear to be to me. The next time someone asks if he can "plug in his X-box," say, "you'd better leave that to me!"
