Lynksys E2500 router


Can this router be installed on a Linux system? Lynksys only gives information for Windows and OS-X. If so, any help installing it would be greatly appreciated.

Yes.
  1. Plug in your router.
  2. Hook your Linux machine up to it (via wifi or hard wire).
  3. Open a web browser and visit http://192.168.1.1
  4. To log in leave the user name blank and use the password 'admin'.
  5. Complete your router setup using the browser-based utility.

Here's a user manual for your router.

Thank you very much. When I go to 192.168.1.1, I primarily get a number of commercial services that want to install it for me, but my cable technician found a work around and I'm now up and running. Thanks again for the info.
