Default DMA2100 Linksys Media Extender

I have a DMA2100 Linksys Media Extender that I had working with my Windows
Vista Ultimate PC at one time. I am now experiencing the same issue I had
previously with a connection failure. Both the DMA2100 and the Windows Vista
PC are using a wired ethernet connection. Does anyone have the magic answer
as to why I continue to have connection issues? I believe the initial problem
was actually related to sharing or security issues with the media folders I
was attemping to access but for the life of me I don't know what has changed
or if this is the actual problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

what error messages?
have you rebooted your router? have you installed any updates to any
software? have you tried a system restore to a time before the issue
started?

Default DMA2100 Linksys Media Extender

Hi Barb,

I have tried rebooting the Router as well as the DMA2100 Media extender.
There was a firmware update applied to the Media extender and I believe some
automatic Windows Updates were applied. I don't have a backup to enable me to
do a restore.
