Fernando was sick today, so I headed up to Ijamsville to help out Brenda C.
Their Linksys WRT54G was behaving poorly. It was having trouble pulling an IP from comcast. It had original firmware, so I updated the firmware, but it still was not pulling an IP. Replace the Linksys with a brand new Trendnet TEW-632BRP router. It pulled an IP right away. I also updated the wireless drivers on her laptop, and then she was back, up and running!
