Solve : *censored* you Linksys!?

Answer»

So the other day I guess the FIRMWARE on my Linksys WRT150N wireless router GOT corrupted. It caused my router to stop putting out the wireless signal so my computer running off the ROUTERS signal, couldn't access the internet. The way their ASK Linksys online help service said to fix it did not work. So I was FORCED to call the technical support line and spend 2 hours trying to understand what the lady was saying in order to fix this thing. Finally we got it fixed. But now there is a new problem. The computer that is getting my internet wirelessly, its internet is INCREDIBLY slow. It used to be extremely fast, now its crap. It literally took me 30 minutes to get it from my HOMEPAGE to the forums here.

The people on these forums have always been really good at helping me in the past, so I'm curious if anyone here might be able to help me get my Wireless internet running at the peak performance it used to be. Because i really dont want to have to call Linksys again and try to decipher what they are saying there.Personally, I'd get a new router.Sounds like the chip is toasted....getting a new router is the best thing you can do...

But you can try to flash the frimware to a older version and than flash it to the lastest version. This can clear the router out. If your getting a new one that you have nothing to loss by doing this.

Keep in mind when to flash the frimware to disconnect everything except the machine you are using to do the flashing. So unplug all the network cables except the one you are using before you start.

Good luck....
