| new modem I had a problem with my router which I got resolved . Internet provider seems to think the cause was the modem and are sending a new one. Will I just be able to remove the old on and reconnect the new one? |

Kyawa, you helped me with my connection problem the other day. Is it possible that the internet port on the router went bad and that is why I couldn't connect? |

Your modem from your ISP is also a router. This means you should be plugging the cable from the modem to a numbered port on your Linksys, not the Internet port. We disabled the router function on your Linksys. Try it. |

Oh ,I did ,and it is working. I was just wondering why it all of a sudden happened when it has always been connected like this. |

Maybe when everything reset, the modem reset as well. The modem may have been it bridge mode meaning the router function was turned off. |
