Linksys Wireless-N WRT150N Router - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
The ethernet and internet lights
Dosn't the router come with cables? Connect one computer to the router and see if it works.
If the router is brand new and hasn't been set up yet, it may have open wi-fi working right out of the box without needing a password. In that case, you could use a computer or tablet that has wi-fi, and no need for an ethernet cable.

What to do when security light is orange?
Reboot
-
The most basic way to attempt to fix a router problem is to reboot the device. This is accomplished by unplugging the power cord, waiting for a minute and then plugging the power connector back in. If the orange light continues to blink, you will have to update its firmware.
Download New Firmware
-
Even though the wireless router is malfunctioning, downloading new firmware is possible by disconnecting the malfunctioning Linksys device from the Internet connection in the wall, then using that jack to plug your machine directly to the Internet. If this is not possible, use another computer that can connect to the Internet. You can download a firmware update directly from Linksys (see Resources).
Install New Firmware
-
Once you have the firmware update available on the computer affected by the malfunctioning router, open the file and follow the instructions to upgrade the devices firmware.

How to hookup N300 wireless extender
You should just have to plug the N300 into a wall outlet, and plug an ethernet cable into the ethernet/network port. Access the N300 by typing 192.168.1.1 into your web browser's address bar to access the N300. It has been a while since I set one up, but if I recall correctly it should just ask you to choose the wireless network taht you want to repeat, select your home network and enter the password for it and save settings.

Changing the password
You want to change the password??If yes the follow the given instructions::Log in to the router's administrative console through a Web browser using the current password and username. In
the router's administrative console, navigate to the appropriate
administration / security section where the password setting can be
changed. In this example, the Administration tab at the top of the
screen contains the Linksys router's password setting. Choose a
suitable password based on the standard guidelines for strong password
security. Enter the new password in the Password box, and re-enter the
same password a second time in the space provided. Entering the password
a second time ensures you did not accidentally type in the wrong
password the first time.The password change is not applied on
the router until you save or confirm the change. In this example, click
the Save Settings button at the bottom of the page to have the new
password take effect. You will see a confirmation window appear briefly
to confirm the password change was made successfully. The new password
takes effect immediately; rebooting the router is not required.If you need any kind of technical assistance you can contact support cell at
