Hi all,
I have a Linksys WRT54GC and I am at a hotel where there is wireless but it is weak. I'd like to use this in my room to attempt to get a more reliable signal. The hotel only has wireless, no option for connecting this to a LAN. There are no "sign in" pages or anything for the wireless, it's 100% open and unsecured. (Wheeeeeee...)
I set it up at home before leaving and once I changed my primary routers' default IP, I was able to connect to my new travel router and see it and use the internet no problemo. In this hotel, I have been able to connect to my travel router and the web config utility but have no internet connection. Everything times out. I can reselect the hotel wireless and get internet immediately. I've reset my router's settings back to factory default to remove the security I set up in case that had something to do with it but it didn't help.
I'm sure I'm just missing something really simple... but I cannot figure out how to get it working here.
Help please! Thanks Jen
Here are the specs for the wireless router that I am connecting to at the hotel... combo of info from wireless config utility and ipconfig /ALL.
