The instructions in the article are simple also the video is very good. This router is easy to setup if you do it manually. just open the setup page and change the settings according to your internet service provider.

I have been using his router for more than 2 years without any problem. But it stopped working yesterday. When I connect my computer directly with the modem, it works properly and I get internet. That means there is no issue with Internet service. I did reset the Cisco E900 router and reconfigure it from the scratch. I created new network and everything is good now. Thanks for helping me pout with step by step E900 setup process.

I need to change the Wireless password on my network. I tried to login to E900 setup page but it is not logging in. It is now asking for the router password. I entered the correct router password which I think is correct but it is not accepting it. I also tried the E900 default password but that did not work either. Do I need to reset it now?

Linksys E900 wireless connection not working
I came home from work today and noticed my wi-fi connection was not working. Went and checked on my router and modem and saw the modem seemed to be working fine but the light for the “Internet” port on the router is not lit up, even though I have an ethernet cable connecting my modem to the “Internet” port of the E900 router, as usual. If I connect my modem to my laptop directly via the ethernet cable, the internet connection is fine, so this does not appear to be a problem with my modem. My wi-fi network is not even showing up on the list of network options. Tried unplugging the router and plugging it back in – nothing happened. It is an E900 model Linksys router – no version number listed, so I am assuming it is version 1. Any idea what could be the problem? It was working fine this morning, as far as I remember. We did have a big thunderstorm today, so I’m not sure if that might have caused an issue

linksys e900 router not working.
I have a problem. The system was working fine until today. It’s not working now.
Desktop: I connect by cable. The LAN seems to be working. I cannot connect to the Internet. The “Local Area Connection Status” shows connected. I have changed cables. Tried a reset. Used the “Key” to connect. Tried Cisco Connect (see below) I get a page with: “Management Mode Firmware Upgrade”. And a box to enter something or a “Browse” to find a file option.
When I connect with the original cable directly to my Modem, I get Internet. Cable good.
When I attempt to access the Router setup using 192.168.1.1 I do not get the setup console.
I get a page with: “Management Mode firmware Upgrade”.
Laptop: Same thing. My laptop does not see the wireless network.

Can not connect to the wireless network on new laptop. Other old laptop is connected and I can access Internet on old one. But the new one has problem connecting to WiFi. I t is running on Windows 7. When I enter the network key, it stays there and says not connected.
Also want to know what is the default password of E900? I tried to open the setup page to check the network key but it is not letting me in.

Not able to connect to the wireless network on my old XP laptop.
The new windows 7 laptop is connected and working. I have the correct security password. I have entered the password and it shows connected but I can not access Internet even though it is connected. Not sure what to do? because the Windows 7 laptop can access Internet.

Trying to setup E900 manually and it is not working. I have a cable Internet service and I can access Internet when I connect the computer directly to the modem. I tried to change Internet settings manually but it did not work. I ran Cisco connect but that did not work either.

There is no guest network access on this router. This is a simple wireless N router. Also there is no access restriction tab on the setup page of the router. You can not block websites or computers from getting on the Internet. No special feature.
