Linksys E900 Wireless N300 Router Questions & Answers
I lost my wifi password
Although your Wi-Fi password is saved on your computer, it should be stored in a safe place in case you need to allow access to your network.
Your Wi-Fi password should be treated the same way as your ATM PIN, as it allows anyone with a laptop the ability to join your network.
In the wrong hands, your information could be intercepted if someone is on your network.
Locating your Wi-Fi password on your computer is easy, but it should be given only to those you know and trust.
Open your Internet browser.
Type in "CNet.com" and click the "Downloads" tab located underneath the search bar at the top of the browser screen.
Type "Wirelesskeyview" in the search bar, and click the "Magnifying glass" button.
Click the first search result, followed by clicking the "Download Now" button to begin the download.
Save the file to your desktop.
Double-click the file to run the program.
The password will be displayed in the program's window.
Password Locator for Macs
Click the "Finder" icon on your dock. Select "Go" and "Applications" from the drop-down menu.
Double-click the "Utilities" folder, followed by double-clicking the "Keychain Access" button.
Double-click the name of your network, and check the box next to "Show Password."
Type your System Administrator password, and click "OK."
What is Router name or SSID
It is what the router broadcasts so devices can find the connection. For example, when you are using a laptop or smart phone you can check for available WiFi connections. The SSID for all connections in range will be listed. The SSID enable you to find your router on the list.
I cannot get a wireless connection with my iphone so backups don't happen
You probably need to make sure that your iphone and your router are both using the same 'standard' of wifi (wireless 802.11b, 802.11g, or 802.11n) The older 'b' and 'g' standards use 2.4 GHz frequency - The Newer 'n' standard can use 2.4 GHZ and also 5GHz for faster performance - I think the iPhone asks you to choose which frequency you want to use rather than asking you to type in 'b', 'g' or 'n'
I forgot the password
If you forgot the password of the router what you can do here is to reset it, to do that look for a small reset button on the back or underneath the router , then use a pen or paper clip to press and hold the reset button for 10 seconds while it is power o.After doing that power off and power back on the router and you need to reconfigure it back like a new router.
Frontier router
Frontier Router Login at the bottom of the Network Connections window, just below the address bar. Select Wireless Properties from the menu. Locate the Network security key field on the Security tab. You'll see your Wi-Fi network password if you click the box for Show characters.

How to Fix Linksys Router Error 2118?
This seems to be a symptom of a configuration error, which can be fixed by resetting the router to factory default. Do this by finding the (often partially hidden) reset button on the device, and pressing and holding down the button, with the power on, till lights start flashing on the router. Let go of the button and allow the router to reset (can take a minute or two). You will now have reset the router to factory default. To connect to your ISP, you'll need to enter your account details (and any other specific information) provided to you by your ISP. You will also have to set a name and password for the wifi section of your router (if it has wifi) if you don't want it to be freely accessible by everyone within wifi range.

Why is my Linksys WRT54G wireless-g router not being recognized anymore?
just fixed one yesterday.
the power pack was no good.AC wall wart,
power green LED blinked endless. and the white logo, LED is dead..
a new pack fixed it.
also the wrong pack used, ! do not mix them up. oops.
first year 54G, v1 uses 5vdc pack.
at v2, and up all want to 12vdc pack,
bottom sticker on above failed was v6.
you said recognized, does that mean the 4 rear Ethernet wired jacks are dead, or just wifi dead.?
first the ethernet ports must work, or wifi is doomed.
