I am trying to configure a Linksys Wireless Router (Model WRT54GS2 V1) for my ViaSat (SM2100) satellite internet. While all the software, router, & windows os says that there is an internet connection; whenever I attempt to go online I get an error message either saying I am not online or that my connection has been reset. How can I fix this?
In Windows, run "cmd". Type "ping google.com". If you can ping google.com, the problem is with the websites you are trying to surf. If you cannot ping google, there is a problem with your connection. This sounds like a used wireless router
You might need to configure it. See this: https://www.linksys.com/us/support-article?articleNum=139668#H2

Does your router have one LED lamp for each "wired" port?
If so, does unplugging the Ethernet-cable (the one that connects to your desktop PC) cause the lamp to go off?
Does reconnecting that cable cause the lamp to go on?
Also, on your desktop computer, there could be a lamp right beside where the Ethernet-cable connects into your computer.
Again, disconnect the cable, and reconnect the cable, to see if that lamp goes off/on.
Have you tried a different cable?
Do *NOT* connect your desktop computer to the 'WAN' port on the router -- connect it to any of the "LAN" ports.

Hello,
If wireless adapter on the laptop is fairly old, you may need to update the drivers for the wireless adapter. Some older wireless adapters are not capable of properly communicating with WPA devices. Typically a driver update of the laptop resolves the issue. If not, try another wifi adapter and verify it is not the OS or laptop itself.
Good Luck.

i've never worked with a 7740, but i've installed hundreds of hn7000's and hn9000's. the issue is usually that the router and modem are defaulting to the same ip address. if your router supports has a web-based config utility (as most do) try cat-5'ing to the router with your computer while the router is NOT connected to the modem. log into the router and set it's ip address to something OTHER THAN 192.168.0.1 (i use 192.168.1.1 for my customers) reboot the router and reconnect it to the modem. the ip conflict should now be resolved.

open a browser. type in 192.168.1.1 user name should be admin p/w admin if not, there should be a small hole in case, called reset. press this in while plugged in for 10 sec. then start again. once you are in you will find all the options. you may wish to refer to their website first.

Try to upgrade the firmware of the router.
After upgrading the firmware, reset the router and reconfigure the router.

Usually answered in minutes!
can you connect directly fia the viaSat? describe your hardware setup. for clarification: you may show you're connected to the router but being connected to the router does not mean being online. (you may know that already but just in case)
