I got it working now except that part that I got stuck previously which was changing from HTTP to HTTPS. I just left it at HTTP, not a big deal I guess. I am glad that I got a secured wireless network now. thank you. Peter I did a hard reset and started from scratch by following your instructions.

I saw similar problem posted in the past, i will power cycle both cable modem and router and see if it happens again. I had this WRT54G for a while and the reason I am looking into all these is to convert my existing unsecure wireless network to a secure one.My last resort is to do a hard reset but before I do so, i would like to know if this will wipe out my existing unsecure wireless network?thanks in advance.
