Is there a problem with this router, I installed it correctly (i've done many 'B''s before) yet have a hard time connecting to most sites, called Linksys, they said it's either I have a software firewall (XP) and should disable it, or it needs a firmware upgrade.
Anyone have insite to this?
TIA
Sounds like you should first connect hardwired to it and do some speed download tests. Also try direct to the cable or DSL modem without the router. that can help to determine if a) the problem is wireless cause hardwired thru the router is fine; or b) the problem is the router cause direct to modem is fine but hardwired thru the router is slow.
Once you have done the above, you should be able to isolate the problem.
works fine . i've narrowed it down to the router, harwired or wifi
Thanks
