My Linksys WRT54GS wireless router broke, so I'm tehered for a little while. I contacted Linksys and what is weird is I can connect, get a great connect, but I can not do anything on the WAN side. Ethernet works perfectly as you will see in a bit. On wireless I can ping my desktop via LAN, but can not ping anything on the WAN. Something died inside the router. Different firmware, many resets, all the channels and a gazillion set-ups to no security to full tilt would not work. Finally I got my mom-in-laws laptop and put in a card and the same issue. I even dug up a b Cisco card and tried that and same result, I connect, but nothing to the WAN side. I was wanting to go Gig on the LAN anyway, just had not planned to do that for a few months. Here is my connect via CAT-5:

Thanks.

I tore into my router and did some resoldering on some spots that looked like cold solder joints. In my 30 years of being in electronics as a career I have seen where time and thermal cycling may cause some marginal soldering jobs to fail a long time from when the work was first done. I wasn't expecting that in the router, but that is what I found. I put the router back together and set-up a wide open wireless setting on the router and I connected right away. I could connect before, the issue was getting to the WAN side. I tried and IT WORKED! My connection on the net is slow, but I had to reload XP on my laptop.

Short story as to why the reload: I was away for a couple days, I came back and my sister had visted my mother who lives with myself and my wife...sis wanted to show mom a new game on the net, used the laptop. You may have guessed it, MALWARE/TROJAN! I found the stuff I had on the laptop didn't do well at preventing it. It looks to have been the latest and greatest with no name yet. Adaware, Spybot, Microsoft's Anti Spyware Beta and AVG (registered) barely saw anything. I got PC Tools Anti Spyware and it cleaned out a mess of stuff, Panda Titanium caught a lot more. They basically cleaned up the system, but I had a NT Authority shutdown happening when I'd get an error with services.exe and connected to the net. It appeared that services.exe had been comprimised and the only way to fix it was to do a reinstall on top of the existing XP.

With the reinstall that wiped out all my system/OS tweaks. Wireless and cable connects are half-fast right now. I used a friend's tweaked laptop to test my routers wireless and the 9M speeds happen with his, so I have to get to tweaking to get my half-fast connections back up to speed.

A 3/4 half-fast wireless connect now (hopfully in the next day or so I can post a 9M area test):

Don't know what is going on to where I can't get the speed tests on testmy to work. Any other site I go to works. Here is Speakeasy to Chicago...wireless:

Download Speed: 9831 kbps (1228.9 KB/sec transfer rate)

Upload Speed: 701 kbps (87.6 KB/sec transfer rate)

There are Comcast trucks all over town today working on stuff. SBC/The New ATT has had their trucks out working all over town too, but that has been going on for a couple weeks now. Yesterday it seemed I could not go 10 blocks without seeing another SBC/The New ATT truck and guys working on something. Maybe a showdown coming to town. :argue:
