I would start on this by resetting the router to defaults. On a Linksys
router this usually involves a small button on the back you can depress
and hold with a paper clip or something similar. Hold it in for 10-15
seconds. See your router manual for exact parameters.
After re-connecting everything, open a Run box, type cmd, OK.
In the cmd box, type ipconfig/all and post the results here. Ipconfig is
explained here:
