WRT54G problem.

mar77a · 2 Feb 2009 at 14:49

Hello. Basically, my internet connection is shared with a WRT54G router. There's 2 plugged computers and a wireless network set up. The problem is whenever the Sony Vaio laptop connects to the wireless network, every computer on the LAN loses internet connectivity (I suspect the router is doing a DHCP release / renew). Any ideas how to fix this?

I have the same router and the same problem, it is driving me :mad:

!

Does it work after you click Save Settings on the config page?

Sorry I couldn't help but I also would like to know the answer to this.

It fixes itself after like 1 minute, what I wanna fix is that it happens each time said laptop connects ;;

I had this problem with my WRT54G and when i changed my security type from WEP to WPA it seemed to fix it.......dont ask why I was using WEP.

Well, im already using WPA Personal

Is the Sony running Vista??

Yes, but there is a compaq running vista too and nothing bad happens when that one connects to the network.
