Customer has a Linksys WRT54G v.6 and she said "laptop is not connecting". Ok, so I check the wireless settings and it's WEP, so I figure I'll change it to WPA2 for more security. But before that I decide to update the firmware, which I do to the latest available on the linksys site (1.02.5) No problems updating the firmware.
Then I set up WPA2 security and set password and configure the laptop. It connects to the router and gets an IP address. BUT no internet connectivity. When I try to ping the router from the laptop command prompt, I get a reply on the FIRST try and then nothing after that.
Other wired clients continue to work no problem
Wired on the laptop in question works
I took the laptop home to my house - wireless works fine
So, what could be wrong with the router or is it just dieing . Any suggestions??? Reset to factory defaults and try again??
