check for updates to the Linksys' BIOS

Post #102,254 by SpiceWare 5/16/03 11:46:32 AM Reply	check for updates to the Linksys' BIOS I've had to update the BIOS in my [link\|http://www.linksys.com/Products/product.asp?grid=33&scid=35&prid=415\|BEFW11S4] on two seperate occasions to correct connection problems. First time was in 2001 to make it work with an iBook. The iBook didn't work at all until the Linksys was updated. Second time was a couple months ago to work with my dad's new laptop. The laptop connected once, then wouldn't connect anymore - just like what happened to you.

Or something to that effect. Ok, I'll give it a shot. I'm still going to try and find a way to reset it, though, because the more I think about it the more I think I may have inadvertently turned off something important... it's just the kind of stupid thing I'm wont to do.

Then I stuck in my Netgear card and it mysteriously started talking. Then I realized that in order to get internet access I needed to setup ppoe, heh. So I did that. Now I have wireless DSL, and am pretty stoked. "We are all born originals -- why is it so many of us die copies?" - Edward Young
