I have a Linksys WRTP54G-VR
Wireless Broadband G router.
hooked up to a Motorola SB4200 via the LAN cable to Comcast.

It is connected to a HP Pavillion a1632x with a NVidea nForce Network
Controller card running Vista64 sp2 . It worked fine under XP64
until my machine got a virus.

1)
Is this device fully supported and tested under Vista64 sp2? Has
anyone gotten it to work under Vista64? Do the XP device drivers work
under Vista and is there anything that can be done to make them run in
backward compatibility mode?
2)
I just installed XP64 on another HD. I installed the router according
to the directions (on the install on the CD), but had a problem having
it detected. I recall that I had the exact same problem 3 years ago
and called customer service. I remember that the solution was to
bring up Control Panel>system>hardware>device Manager and to remove
one of the entries. I don't know nor see which one. When I did that,
the device seemed to reinsall and fix the problem. Does anyone know
which one that is?????

Unfortunately, I don't want to shell out $40 to linksys for the
customer support on an old router like this.

Can you set up the router without installing any drivers using Telnet or web interface?

The install hangs on the last step, displaying 99% complete, but never
finishes (even after an hour).
It did this before too.
