Is that correct? Is that part of the firewall function - to have two MACs? I thought maybe that "Router" MAC was actually the modem's MAC but it only differs by one character from the router's "Local Network" MAC so I think it's actually the Linksys' MAC. I'm guessing that the "Router" MAC is the "outside" MAC that assigns itself the IP assigned by her ISP and the "Local Network" MAC is assigned an "inside" IP by the router's NAT function. I expected to find a MAC for the router and a Mac for the wireless part, but there were 3 MACs listed - one for "Router", one for "Local Network" and one for "Wireless". I connected my thinkpad via Ethernet cable to her router to get into the router's browser pages so we could write down the settings before hitting the reset button. I have been able to connect to her SSID w/ my thinkpad in the past, but I can't get a connection wirelessly now either.
She has a strong wireless signal, but can't connect to her router or the internet. I'm trying to help my sister reestablish her wireless connection to her Linksys WRT54G wireless router after her ISP switched her to a DOCSIS 2 modem and I'm pretty confused at this point.
