I recently changed both router and cable modem. I would like swap back to the old router to t/s whether recent (since these changes) network instability is the router, or the cable modem.
Both routers support WPA-PSA TKIP. Both use the same Network key and SSID. However, when I switch between them, I have to reinstall the wireless card driver on my desktop computer, and our PS3 needs to have the key re-entered by hand (arduous process). My son's PSP just won't go online at all since the switch.
The desktop may just have a flaky wireless card. But, I don't see why the PS3 and PSP would also take exception to the network settings. I would expect (since no network info has changed and they're set to use DHCP) that they would get online easily.
Is there a way to switch from router to router invisibly, without the networking computers noticing there's been a change?
