Multiple Issues WRT160N

[JBolduc]

We've had this router for about a year or so.

Lately my wife who is using a wireless connection with her labtop had had alot of the intermintant connection issues that cause the signal to fluxuate from 2-5 bars even though she is no more then 20 ft from the device. I've read that it is a firmware issue and I have the backup of the previous version of the Firmware.

The only thing is I am unable to access any of the configuration from any PC in the home. I was able to once I setup the device the first time, and then again after a power outage because I had to hard reset the router and hold reset to undo all setttings.

Any clue as to what I can do to fix this?

Make sure when you are trying to access the setup page of the router it is suppose to be connected hard wired to the computer. Delete the browsing history. Reset the browser settings, then unplug the power cord from the Linksys router wait for 10 seconds and re-plug the power cord.

Now try to access the setup page of the router.

Also, If you are facing issues with the signal then try play with different wireless channels on the router.

This must be caused by interference from other devices. You can change channels on the router to resolve this problem. Just follow this link.
