Post Did my router take a crap?
So, out of no where my router stopped working. Its a linksys wrt54gs2 v1. My tv, PS3 and phone wont connect. It doesn't even show my router in range when my phone is right next to it. Anything I can? Or do I just need to go get a new one? Thanks!

Hard-wire into it and see if you can get into the control panel - default 192.168.1.1

If yes, erase config, update firmware, reconfig. Try reconnecting and see what do

if no, investigate to see if you have any documentation to what it is configured to, if not, press the reset button on the router and try again if still no. new router

Yea I dont know the admin password anymore :/ lol

Already tried the reset button. It works when I'm hard-wired into, just does "give off" a wireless signal anymore.

Well when I reset my router it reset the PW. So I just went in there and reconfigured everything and BAM! Shit worked!
