Well, I have to get rid of my WSM. My stupid HOA has outlawed charcoal grills/smokers. You melt hole through the stucco flooring of your balcony, and they never forgive you. (To be fair, that was pretty stupid of me. Also they probably don't even know I did that.) I'm sure I'll be able to...

Yes.

Also, to make triple sure on this one (I know I keep checking this) you're plugged into one of the LAN ports, right?

Weird. Don't mean to be insulting with my questions, it's just... this should be working.

What's the model number of your linksys, and have you done a factory reset?

Have you tried rebooting windows? Are we sure that the ethernet cable is good?

What are you doing to disconnect from the wireless? Sorry for all the questions, but I'm at a bit of a loss here.

I'm one step too slow on any troubleshooting steps here.

Here are the steps I took. I downloaded the custom firmware from github. I disconnected my laptop from wireless. I plugged my laptop directly in to one of the LAN ports on the WRT. I went to 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 (Can't remember which, one should work.) I logged into the router using...
