hi
ok, i have verizon dsl internet. i have a westell wirespeed modem, Model #b90-210015-04. and i bought a linksys wrt54g wireless router.
I can not get it hooked for the life of me. i tryed the software that came with the router, and and was going fine until i got to were it connects the the internet, and it wouldn't connect. so i did some research, and found that other people have have problems with the westell modems. i found that people said you need to go to the westell config page and change the setting to bridged mode. but i can't get to it. i tryed typing the ip into IE(71.99.41.201) and nothing came up. i tryed also to type in 192.168.1.1 and that didn't work either. also, i have tryed resetting both modem and router,unpluging and repluging, restarting computer. i even tryed going to cmd>ipconfig>ip release>iprenew, and that didn't work(once i typed in ip renew it said somthing about not being able to connect or commuicate and it timed out.
i have no idea what else to do.
i would really appreciate any help anyone can give me.
TIA
