Linksys WRT54G
 

This weekend I had Comcast highspeed internet installed at my home. I have
a Linksys cable modem and a Linksys wireless broadband router. Everything
seemed to be working until I tried to use the USB ports on my Dell laptop.
Nothing. When I plug in my flash drive or try to sync my Treo the computer
doesn't recognize them. Was online over an hour with Linksys last night
and they are telling my I need a different router for the USB's to work.
That is not an answer, any ideas?

Re: Linksys WRT54G
 

The Linksys has no relationship to your USB ports. More likely, the Comcast
software is what mucked with the ports.

This sounds like a Windows problem (what version of Windows are you using?)

Check in Control Panel->System->Device Manager Are the USB ports listed?
Are they enabled? What version of Windows?

The answer is not correct. Linksys cannot be the issue.
