The Solution Rating System
|
|
| With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating. - The Grade of the Solution
- The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
- The Number of Author and Expert Comments
- The Number of Experts Contributing
- The Feedback of the Community
Your Input Matters Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site. If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support. Thank you! |

Asked by rdoving in DSL Lines / Cable Internet, Network Routers, New Internet Users
I recently signed up for Comcast cable internet and digital phone service and the installer came out and hooked up a modem that runs both the internet and phone services. I plugged my computer directly into the modem and was able to access the internet. I then switched my computer to plug into my Linksys WRT54GL (running stock firmware) and plugged the Linksys into the Comcast modem.
At first the modem wouldn't get a WAN IP from the modem, but then I cloned my PC's MAC to the Linksys and was able to get a WAN IP. Did an ipconfig /release and /renew on the PC to make sure everything was current, but I'm not able to access the internet or ping google.com from the PC.
I can ping google.com through the Linksys's web-based config page, but I can't from my PC. What would cause this? Here is my ipconfig info:
Linksys IP: 192.168.1.1
PC IP: 192.168.1.100
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
DHCP server: 192.168.1.1
DNS servers: 68.87.76.**2, 68.87.76.**4
