Linksys resets itself

How common is it for a LinkSys WRT600N dual band gigabit router to reset itself back to it's original settings?



I had set up a secure network weeks ago but tonight I got disconnected and when I connected back up my WiFi network was



operating on the original unsecured LinkSys signal. Is this a sign that one of my neighbors is hacking into my system?

Im not familar with your router but maybe you forgot to save your setup. If that is the case it could go back to the old data after a reset.

No.

No. It means that your router reset itself to default, or you're connecting to one of your neighbors unsecured routers with an SSID=Linksys. Verify that you're actually connected to your own router.
