Hey everyone,

So I've been having problems for a few days with internet crapping out. So I was told to update firmware on my linksys router (wrt54g-v8.2). Upon uploading vxworkskiller, the router page said the update was successful and it was rebooting. Everything crapped out. My network disappeared. I can't log into the linksys router page anymore and I'm using an ethernet cable to do all this. I'm on Windows 10, hp g7 laptop, and I know nothing about computers. I've googled the [bleep] out of this and havent found a solution. Tried to pink 192.168.1.1 with no results.
