Linksys Router Problem?

[pjd9000]

My computer is currently running off a linksys wireless network thingy. I was reading one of the tutorials and tried to use the computer I have setup at my father's house as a test. The problem was it would just timeout. I tried maybe 3 different scanners and two other computers I know dont use firewalls.

I am also unable to use trace programs for some reason. Anyone have an idea why I would be having this problem with my computer?

Umm.. any chance that ping is disabled?

What are you referring to?

[MrLinus]

On your Linksys Router, is there any chance that ICMP is disabled?

I have a linksys router, not a wireless one, but probably applies to you.

I cannot ping, nor do traceroutes.

My router is firewalled, but I imagine this is the same problem you are having.

When you get to the routers set up page, do you see a tab somewhere that says firewall?

MsMittens,

Any idea where I could look for this ICMP option? Tried looking through the page and couldnt find one, and a search on google yielded few results.

What tabs on the top do you see, when you open up the routers web page?

[pjd9000]

Setup//Password//STATUS//DHCP//Log//Security//HELP//ADVANCED


Advanced:

Filters//Fowarding//Dynamic Routing//Static Routing//DMZ Host//Mac Addr. Clone//Wireless


Those are the tabs I see

I'd check under Security to see what's there. BTW, what linksys router model is this?

Linksys Instant Wireless PCI Card V2.7
