You should be eligible for Linksys technical support, no?

i called them an hour ago some chineese guy picked up

its hard to communicate with him, it took 10 mins to tell him that my modem requires level 2 technician and he is level 1

and told me i've to wait at least 30-45min!!! so i hung up

i emailed them instead, it says i should recieve a reply in 1 business day

ow okay okay solved it

i downloaded the latest beta firmware 1.03.0_beta4 from linksysinfo.org

then upgraded to it (ow b4 that I downloaded firmware for my current version 1.01.7 as well)

bc as expected when i upgraded it didn't even connect to internet

so then i downgraded to my previous version 1.01.7

now its working

well thanks everyone!!

I'm glad it's working for you. Linksys makes good products and I was very suprised to see that you were having so much trouble with their product.

yea that's why i had bought it at first place

i was going to get netgear but i wasn't able to find it here..

also this model wag54g that i have is router + adsl modem combined. which is cool bc i don't have to get another modem

I have a BEFSR41 Cable/DSL Router with Integrated Four Port Switch, I have a WRT54GS Wireless-G Broadband Router with SpeedBooster, I have two EZXS55W EtherFast 10/100 5-Port Auto-Sensing Switches and I have two WPC54GS Wireless-G Notebook Adapter with SpeedBooster.

Never had any problems with any of it. People I know that have Linksys products don't have problems. But anyone who has a NetGear, D-Link or some no name product, keeps having problems.
