Unable to access my Linksys BEFSR41

when I try, it times out. I have unplugged, reset, etc. The router will not let my access it. Any suggestions. I am on Comcast, using Windows 98se.

Make sure the reset you do is a "Hard Reset." Press and hold the reset button for several seconds (I forget how many) If you watch the lights, you can tell when it does it. This will change your password back to default of admin.

Also, make sure address you're typing doesn't have www in it. Should be »192.168.1.1

Maybe you've done this, and if so, sorry I couldn't be more help.

Are you working but just not able to get to the config pages for the Linksys or is the issue with the Linksys in-line, you can't get on the internet?

If it's the config pages, make sure you have no proxy settings specified in your browser. In IE, click on Tools / Internet Options / Connections tab / LAN Settings button and see if anything is checked. If it is, you want to uncheck it. See if you can get to the Linksys now and the internet still works.

I'm sort of having the same problem: after resetting the router I can access the setup page, but after a while it stops responding, although I can still connect to the Internet etc. I have no LAN SETTINGS enabled, so that should be fine as well.

Anyone got a clue?
