trainman0978 Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Okay. I have three different computers. 2 Macs , and a compaq laptop. I use a cable connection, with a motorola surfboard modem, a linksys router model # wrt54g2 V1. for the past week I have not been able to pull up this site from my home network. I looked all around, i even called up comcast... finally , this morning , I by passed the router all together, and the site will come up. the problem is , the network is down, keeping Jess from using her computer, and keeping me from using my laptop ( not a big deal ). so why would my router block this site? I kept getting a "network timed out" message? Any body else had this problem? Quote 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser Voo Doo Blue my upgrades and "build" thread.

trainman0978 Posted March 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Thanks David. I tried that. But It actually didnt do any good. I did get it fixed.... but I noticed something that got me thinking .... down along the bottom of the screen , you know where you see the name of the website while it loads..... I saw this " prstats.postrelease.com " Not sure what it was so I did a google on it.... something to do with slowing forums down for some people , on some networks, but not all. I gather it is some kinda hidden I. T. stuff that has to do with running this forum. I read that sometimes it will cause a router to basically crash, hence the " network timed out " message that I got. So basically I went into th router i.p. webpage that takes you to all of the settings for the router and restored everything to default. I just had to go back in and reset the router name and password and now it works, Jessica's computer is working, and the laptop is yet to be tried, but I see no reason why it wouldnt work. Dunno.... somehow I managed to clog my router up good enough to cause it to give me a problem... but as of now, it seems to be okay.

Boon Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 (edited) Flash your router to DD-WRT It's a damn cool open source firmware for the WRT-54G, heaps gruntier than the original and you can even turn up the wireless strength. EDIT: Oops, dunno if it works with the WRT-54g2 Edited March 20, 2009 by Boon Quote 10.x volts fo' life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
