hi guys, i recently just got a trendnet tew-631brp draft-n wireless router from bestbuy at a really good price on boxing day. the wireless internet works fine, but i have 1 computer using a LAN jack at the back of the router and and ethernet cable going from the bell modem to the WAN jack. heres my problem: when i go on google, i can do a search and everything works fine, but when i click on a link nothing happens. i can type in a website at the top, it will take me there but when i click on a link the same thing happens. also, msn is not working which really upsets me. when i run the ethernet cable directly from the bell modem to my computer it works totally fine. its something with the router. do you guys no what it is? thanks in advance!
I don't really understand much of this but it could be that your router has a different MTU or MRU setting from your modem. I remember playing with one of these settings, changing it from 1492 to 1500 (at the advice of the dsl reports tweak tester). The result was that I still had a connection but could not access certain sites and could not log into MSN. I changed it back to 1492 and the problem resolved. Again this could be totally wrong but it's something you could look into.
alright i will give it a try..i also tried setting up a static ip address..it worked but i still had the same problem
