Linksys 4 port router with intergrated WAN
I bought one of these puppies the other day as I was about to have my one meg cable connection installed and thought it would be the easiest way to share it across my network.
But for the life of me I can't get it to work.
I can get my cable running through the nic of any of my pc's but when I plug them into the router and try to run the cable through that the cable modem won't connect. I get a link light but the packets being sent from my router to the cable modem just don't seem to be doing anything
The router is set up with all standard settings. DHCP is enabled and it is set up to act as a gateway(standard setting) rather than a router. Everything is as it came out of the box.
Please tell me I'm missing something really obvious that'll take me 10 seconds to fix when I get home
Any help would be greatly received.
