Ever since I updated my Linksys router's firmware my home network does not work. I keep getting network path not found. I have been told I need to reconfigure my router, but I don't know what needs configured and how. When I first got my router all I did was plug everything in and I didn't set anything up, it just worked. The network I setup with the network wizard. I share a printer with another computer so I need to get this network working. thanks

Obviously, one or more of your settings changed when you reflashed the firmware. Try running the network setup wizard again. Also, make sure your PC is set up use DHCP. DHCP defines how your computer is assigned an IP address. What could have happened is that you could have been using a static IP address, something you would have had to define on your computer and when you flashed your firmware, the router could have been set to use DHCP instead of the statically-assigned IP addresses. Try this, go Start -> Run -> type in "cmd" and press enter. You will see the Command Prompt window pop up. Then type in "ipconfig /all". This will tell you if DHCP is enabled. If it is not enabled, enable DHCP on your computer. You should also see IP addresses in the other fields. Avoid Intel Celeron CPUs, buy an AMD instead. Avoid Nokia, go Motorola instead.

Under LAN connection DHCP is enabled. Under tunnel adapter DHCP is not enabled. Should this be and how do I enable it?

I am not sure what tunneling adapter refers to, but the main setting that you needed to check was the DHCP setting under LAN connection. Log into your router and run the network configuration wizard again. If you are unsure how to log into the router, you can do so by visiting this webpage: http://www.linksys.com/tech_helper/tshooting.html. Try this: 1. Open up a web browser. 2. Type in the URL (web address): 192.168.1.1 3. Enter the default username and password (which should be username: [blank] password: "admin", unless you changed them) 4. Once you are logged into your router, you should see something like "Network setup wizard" or some wizard which will walk you through the setup. Click on that link and you will then setup the router like you did when you pulled it out of the box. Hope this helps. If not, reply and we can try some other things. By the way, when you typed in ipconfig /all in the command prompt window, like I asked you to do in the last post. What did you see for the ohter fields? Were there IP addresses filled in? (IP addresses look like xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx), where the x's are digits.) Avoid Intel Celeron CPUs, buy an AMD instead. Avoid Nokia, go Motorola instead.

The one ip adress was filled in with 192.168.1.101, the other ip adress was a bunch of letters and numbers. When I log into my router there is nothing about network setup. None of the tabs says network.
