Ok, heres my problem:

i cannot login to my Yahoo Email address...i cannot loggin to WorldofWarcraft, i cant login to the site of World of warcraft

ive been talking to WoW support and they say that it is my routers..heres the exact email i was given on iwon.com email::::

-First try connecting directly to the router with an Ethernet or USB cable.

-Try bypassing your router and connect directly to your DSL or Cable modem. This will often help identify if connection issues are related to a router.

-Check for updates with your router manufacturer. These updates can often be found on your router manufacturer's website. If you need assistance please contact the router manufacturer directly.

Among these reports; the more common routers have been the Linksys WRT54GS/WRT54G and several Belkin models. Many customers have reported that the most recent released updates have resolved their connection issues.

I am on my computer upstairs in my bedroom. My dads computer is DOWNstairs with the router, im using a entene type of thing to recieve a transmission...how do i make this so i can login to these accounts????

I am on my computer upstairs in my bedroom. My dads computer is DOWNstairs with the router, im using a entene type of thing to recieve a transmission...how do i make this so i can login to these accounts????


note that my brother is able to login into his yahoo email and his computer has the same connection to everything as mine does

i also have another question, how do you check what kind of version of firmware you have?
