Ok, so it took like 30 mins to log in to my router.
I had to keep refreshing

The pages wouldnt show all the info
Lots of stuff was missing
Even very basic things like the frames, network numbers, background colors... Everything


It is NOT a browser problem!
This same problem was happening on another computer (used IE6, IE7, Firefox 2.0)

Somehow I was able to "restore factory defaults" ... it helped alot, but not completely... it was still Really slow

Kicked everyone off my network(just in case of virus/worm or broadcast storm or something)


What happened? Anyone seen this before?
I thought my router was gone for good...
NEVER seen this before!!
OH YA, BTW, LINKSYS SUCKS!!

Thank you!
