Linksys router question
Hi
I have very basic network settings in my home. Cable connected to my Linksys Wireless G router. My wife and I connect to that using our laptop.
Yes. I did enable encryption to connect. Also my wireless printer is connected to that.
For some reason, last night around 12:30 AM, the printer acted like it was going to print. Then it didn't print any thing. Again it did that one hour later.
My question, is it possible some one hacked into my Linksys router? The wireless printer never did that before?
Thanks.

Does anyone know if this router can restrict incoming traffic to specific IP addresses. There does not seem to be any information on Cisco's web site any more.

Make sure you can write to the current directory for data files and that you always run from the same directory. The first time you run
the script, you will be asked to run with the --makedat option in addition to any other options. This will create the data files for the
hostnames and options your specify on the command line. You should only do this once. Subsequent runs should be made without the --make-
dat option.
