Re: Update can't work behind Linksys wireless router. Direct to AD

Not sure what type of DSL connection your ISP offers but, see if this applies, Peter :

Setting-Up a DSL ISP on a Linksys Router

Step 1:
Access the router’s web-based setup page. For instructions, click here.
http://linksys.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/linksys.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=3676&p_sid=VXKPHBTi&p_lva=3687&lid=3973237401B07#

Step 2:
When the router’s web-based setup page appears, look for Local IP Address and change it to

192.168.2.1

I had to change the default ip address to 192.168.0.1 to avoid crashing with the adsl modem using 192.168.1.1. Most other settings are intact. I tried changing the mtu value fom 1500 to 1492 to match the adsl as advised in other posts but that didn't help either.

The server name could not be resolved.

Some 'thing' is blocking the connection to the update server.
If the system can update successfully when connected directly to the modem than the Linksys router needs to have some settings adjusted.
Was the router installed with it's Default configuration or did you add/adjust any of the settings ?

Thanks. Lots of info. Going through. I suspect it may not due to pc settings as t is fine when connected directly o the adsl model. Hit problem if I have the Linksys wireless router between the modem and my pc. Maybe some forwarding thingy that I need to set on the router.

Got some more info from the log file.

Do any other websites not work (like Yahoo! mail or Hotmail)? If so, you might have an MTU issue on your PC and/or router. Even if all other sites work, the tool below is worth looking into if you've already done the easy (and not so easy) stuff.

Go to http://www.dslreports.com/tools and poke around, there is a lot of good stuff there. For your specific issue, see Dr. TCP (http://www.dslreports.com/faq/578) on how to test and set your MTU.
