Problem with environment - Replacing router(1) with any other router (router 2, preferably Lava 150 ) does not solve the problem. 2. Problem with configuration - Different Lava 150 (borrowed from contacts etc.) router works well. Replicating those configurations in your router makes your router start working. 3. Problem with router hardware. - If its not 1 or 2, most likely its a faulty piece issue. Best Regards, Rav!kant _______________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List
