A newb to networking needs help!

That happens to be a problem, the Ambit router is the only one out of the two that can connect to a hard line.

More detailed:

Hard line - Ambit -CAT 5- Lynksys -Wireless- Laptop
                                                \
                                               
                                                CAT 5
                                                    \
                                                     Desktop

I see...

If your hard reset doesn't work out for you I would honestly suggest getting a new router rather than have the double setup you have. My friend has an identical setup to you (different router types but same setup) and can't connect to people in CoH without playing directly through the router closest to the hardline, in your case the ambit. When he does this, no one else can access the net in his house and I still had to configure his port forwarding.

But routers are expensive

Very true...and the other problem is that the Ambit only has 1 CAT slot, and that goes to the Linksys...Without it, not only would the entire house lose the connection but our roommate who uses it. Bad bad bad. Looks like I'm stuck.

You fail on your conquest to connect to me.

You Lose.

Nooo! We can't afford a new router..

[Seeme]

Maybe we both win a couple of tournaments together I can give you the money I win and over time you could afford a router

[Cranialwizard]

XP My father would go ballistic because the linksys cost a bunch of money But good idea though 

Then next one we win you get the money
