Re: Urgent networking problem

Link for info on the router

Power up the WRT610N and watch the blue Power LED. It should flash during self-diag and go solid when complete.

Connect an ethernet cable directly to port 1-4 on the WRT610N (Not WAN port!)
Check for LEDs active on both the WRT610N and the PC/Laptop.
Make sure PC is set to get address from DHCP.
On PC, Start...Run...cmd
Use command 'ipconfig /all' (no quotes) and verify:
you have an IP address
you have a Default Gateway

The Default Gateway should be 192.168.1.1 if you reset the WRT610N back to defaults correctly. The Linksys User Guide says you have to hold the Reset button for at least 5 seconds.

Browse to http://192.168.1.1 and configure as directed in FIRST documentation.
