Well all the praise Ive given Linksys may have finally come to an end hehe..
So I come home from work yesterday, boot up my G4, it takes OS X almost 8
minutes to boot (this is once the happy mac is gone and the OS X box comes
up).. I noticed it sits and lags on the Configuring and Initializing Network
dialogs... Then after its done loading its initial processes, takes almost 5
minutes before the Login screen shows up.. The mac finally boots, and I cant
check email or anything.. I try to login to my Router and IE just sits there
and hangs. I actually have to force quit it to get it to stop. I thought
maybe the ethernet port died on my new G4, but hooked up my DSL modem
directly to it, and connected just fine using OS X's PPPOE setup.

So does anyone have any ideas for troubleshooting my router?? Its the
BEFSR41, 4 port switch DSL router.. Linksys wont talk to me cause its a Mac
(why does that really make a difference when its an HTML based setup
program??). The router is only like 8 months old. Do they have that short of
a lifespan? Im about to hook up my PC and see what happens when I try to
connect to the router. Then they have to support me hehe..

If anyone can think of anything other than powering it down and resetting it
please let me know!
