Most Linksys devices that need to be configured are done so through a built-in web page. Go to linksys' site and you can get the manual, and decent instructions on getting it to work in a variety of situations. If someone has been messing with the thing,m there's (iirc) a recessed reset switch, press and hold that for 30 seconds to reset the thing (I had to do that this weekend on a Linksys Cable router to clear a lost password...the manual only says 'Press the switch' leaving out the critical bit about 'for 30 seconds'. :-/ In theory, it *should* just work, though. One thought: it *IS* an 802.11b device, isn't it, because the 802.11a ones are incompatible with Airport or any other 802.11b device, they use different frequencies. -- "Wherever you go, there you are.
