I'm making progress now. The wire from the D-Link to the Linksys was connected to the WAN port on the Linksys, at least I think it is the WAN port. There are five ports, one of which is separated a bit from the others. It was on the separated port. I moved it to one of the other four ports, and restarted the Linksys, and now I can connect my laptop to it, and ifconfig now lists it as wlan0, but I still can't get into the Admin page with Firefox. When I restarted the Linksys the D-Link gave it .165, where it had been .179 previously. And when I connected to it with my laptop its name is now 'linksys' where before I had named it 'JJJ.' And there is no security. I could fix the security and the name issue if I could just get into its Admin page. And I'm still puzzled why I have an eth0 and an eth1, where eth1 has all the traffic and eth0 seems to have none. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
