Re: WRT54GS problem
I turned off the norton security and windows firewall - it still doesn't work. Interestingly, when i install my previous router the internet works.

Re: WRT54GS problem
Could be it a problem with router ?, because it was re-owned, but i bought it .I think if it is in the shop , so it should be fine

Re: WRT54GS problem
If the router was pre-owned try doing a complete reset on it. Make sure it's on factory default settings, including passwords, else if they've changed some of the connectivity settings you'll have a load of faffing.

Re: WRT54GS problem
Try a master reset and install again. It took me atleast 3 goes to get mine sorted and it was a software firewall problem.
I still suspect Norton to be the problem or maybe even Windows firewall. Also try disabling your Antivirus too.

Re: WRT54GS problem
Hold in the Reset button on the back of the router for 30 seconds. Unplug the power to the router and then plug it back in. You might have to reboot the computer after also.
