Please log in for more thread options Hi, I'm trying to connect a router to my existing Comcast High Speed connection. Here's my situation: -I can connect both my laptop and desktop to the internet when directly connected to the cable modem (ie only one computer at a time). -When I connect the cable modem to the router, and the other computers to the router, it shows a connection, however no internet. Am I missing something here? I disabled all firewalls, etc. Does this have to do with Comcast, Linksys, both, neither? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Jason | |||||||||||||

Power-up the modem, and let it sync-up before doing anything else. Then power-up the router. Then power-up the devices attached to the router. -- Warren H. ========== Disclaimer: My views reflect those of myself, and not my employer, my friends, nor (as she often tells me) my wife.
