    How do I access the Asus router settings using Linux Mint?

    Nope, still not happening. This site can’t be reached 192.168.50.1 refused to connect. Try: Checking the connection Checking the proxy and the firewall ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED Something tells me I'm looking at a reset for the router... maybe that will work?

    How do I access the Asus router settings using Linux Mint?

    Replacing a Failed Notebook Wireless Radio

    Thanks guys... To answer Tim's question "What problem are you trying to solve by upgrading?" I thought I could improve throughput speed a little but this may not be possible. I recall Linksys promoting their CardBus with "SpeedBoost" as a way to increase file transfer speed. Not necessarily...
