I have been trying to get a dsl connection through a new linksys BEFSR41 Router all day. I have networked 3 computers together for file sharing and a dsl connection through XP. The file sharing, etc works fine and the network recognizes all of the computers. I cannot connect to the internet through the router however. When I run through the linksys setup to configure the router for access i get the popup message "Local Area Network-A Network Cable Is Disconnected". There are no disconnected cables and all of the cables work fine. I have tried crossover and straightthough between the modem and the router with no change. I even upgraded the router firmware ala linksys tech support. My network card is a 3Com 3C920 which is working fine. I am completely stuck here. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
By the way--I noticed there were a few other people that got this message with this router but they were able to get access.
