Linksys Router Help

Hey All,


couldn't find the correct category for this but eh eventually I'll tell brandon to open up a thread for PC Assistance / Networking


Ok to the issue at hand. My Linksys router seems to be giving me serious problems.

This is a Cable/DSL Router + Built in 4 Port hub & Is Wireless Capable

Timeline
Sunday - Me and my dad figure out why the router wasn't allowing multiple PC connections through the DSL line (I plugged the wire into the wrong port I plugged it into the Incoming on the LAN port instead of the provided WAN port.). After that my 2 PC's and Laptop were able to share the internet.

Sunday Night - Everything is still working fine Was able to log onto FIRST / XANGA and MSN etc....

Monday - All 3 PCS were working fine on the network accept. I could no longer log onto FIRST / XANGA / or MSN ( the 3 sites I use the most )

Tuesday (today) - Same issue

I doubt it's my ISP b/c I reset the DSL Modem and checked all the connections. I reset my router to factory Default at least 3 times so far. with no response. I tried pinging all 3 and they have come back with request timeouts. I've swapped between IE6 and Netscape 7 with no result. I shut my firewall off - no result, I've checked the Security / Privacy and Content under the Internet Options - thats set correctly. WHAT AM I MISSING and WHY DID IT TAKE NEARLY A DAY TO HAVE REPRUCTIONS

I know you guys have wireless / some form of network for the simple fact that we're all FIRSTers and need to be on Delphi whereever we are lol

So of those with a DSL PC Network or just a network / Cable PC Network I need some help and will be in your debt for any assistance set forth

Thanks ahead of time!



Edit:// Add Microsoft Update to that list of non connects forgot to list them

The network DOES work fine Between sometime after i used the net Sunday night up until now the sites i normally go to no longer connect. Yahoo, Tripod, Chiefdelphi (which i'm happy about) are a few of which i'm still getting response from.

I have tried accessing these sites on the other 2 PCs I have in my house attached to the network, And YES I still have access to my PC's


Some good news Some Bad News Good News is there is nothing wrong with the router / my network, The Bad news it could be the DSL Modem.
