Setting up Linksys E1000 with PPPoE?
Q. I have a Westell 6100G (With Verizon DSL, PPPoE protocol) and a Linksys E1000 with the latest firmware.
I've put the Westell box in bridge mode, and disabled the private DHCP server. My computer is no longer able to connect to the internet with it.
I've cloned my MAC address for the Linksys E1000 router, entered the correct username and password for Verizon's PPPoE, entered Google's Public DNS addresses, rebooted the router, attempted to connect, and the connection failed. Is there something I've forgotten?
Notes:
- All hardware is brand-new and connected properly
- I'm running Linux, and Wine is having issues with Cisco Connect, so I used the router's web interface to tweak the settings
The error appears to be that the router is not receiving an IP address from Verizon when it attempts to connect.
I'm not really a networking expert...

Kaspersky Internet Security 2011?
Q. I was wondering if Kaspersky Internet Security 2011 blocks WiFi hackers. Does it stop hackers trying to access / steal your WiFi connection even though you have a password on the Router? By the way my Router is a Cisco Linksys E1000. Do you need to be on the main computer to see who is stealing your Wifi if Kaspersky doesnt do it?
A. No
anti-virus can not protect you from wi-fi intrusions.
Why?
Because Wi-Fi protection is hardware based.Your router has it's own operating system(which is called firmware) and it stores the password in there.Kaspersky can not go inside your router and protect your password.
Kaspersky will protect you from hackers that attack you over the internet but let's say if your neighbor steals your wi-fi password and enters your network then Kaspersky won't detect anything.
All of routers have the ability to show exactly how many people use your router at any given time + their uniqie MAC addresses.If you see more then 1 MAC address "registered" that means someone hacked your Wi-Fi.
I guarantee you,if you choose a good password with at least 8 letters/number then you're protected .

dd wrt router question?
Q. i have a linksys e1000 router. It is supported under dd wrt but i dont know what the revision number means on the site. My router model is version 1 but the firmware is 2.0.01 build 8. Which number is the revision referring to.
A. its your router model version, it should be listed with the model number on the router. From what you've said it should be v1.0.
It's listing the hardware revision rather then the software (firmware) revision, because its dealing with hardware compatibility.
Hope that helps.
