How can i lock my internet network in my pc in my pc, so that my pc does not look for other networks?

Q. I have a linksys firmware 2. My internet keeps on disappearing every 3 or so minutes. The cause maybe that the labtop network my pc is picking up is trying to connect to that network than my own.

A. I presume you are talking about a wireless link to the router. It seems odd that your pc wants to go to another network. If so the other networks have security issues.

Anyway, you should be able to select your own network and it should not be jumping as you suggest.

I think the real issue is something else, like an intermittant problem with the router dependability. Some Linksys models are famous for failing after a while. See if there is new firmware for it as this may fix the problem.


Where could I find a programmer to collaborate with on open source wifi router software with?
Q. I would like to create a custom firmware package for off the shelf wifi routers, (linksys/cisco is my preference) open sourced, for an art project. Project is funded and programmer would receive all money beyond hardware purchase requirements to get the project off the ground. I will receive no money, but will retain IP of project.
A custom linksys firmware, for art.

A. Probably on Craigslist.org you could find someone to help you with this project.


How do i get this firmware off my LinkSys Wireless WRT54GS?
Q. I flashed the dd_wrt_micro firmware to my router hoping it would fix my problem. It didn't! I have a LinkSys WRT54GS v5 Wireless router and now I can not connect to the internet through it. How do I replace dd_wrt_micro with the original LinkSys firmware?

How do you forward your ports so you can play Warcraft using a Linksys Router?
Q. So...I have a linksys router and I want to host games in Warcraft III, but it won't let me. I looked around the internet and found that you need to forward your ports to 6112 or something like that. I went to this website http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Linksys/WRT54G/Warcraft_III.htm and it said to put your static ip address into the browser and a log in box will come up. Well, I did what it said and I put the default log in and when I did that, I believe I logged in, but it led me to a blank site. It's supposed to lead me to the linksys firmware site or w/e, but instead it directed me to a blank site and said it was done. So I'm not really sure what to do and I really want to host my own games in Warcraft III so someone help me with my port forwarding linksys problem please?

A. I've had this same problem too, but I got my hosting games to work this way...

Go to Start, and push run.

Type cmd and push okay.

Now, type "ipconfig" (without the quotes)

Look for Default Gateway, and enter the number in any Web Browser (IE, FireFox, Opera)

That should take you to your router settings...

Now look for something like Virtual Servers, or Port Forwarding...

Then enter 6112 in the ports to open for UDP, and input whatever else it tells you to.

If all that doesn't work, try disabling your firewall, and if you can host games after that, go to your firewall and look for an option to open ports, then open port 6112...
