    Sometimes my Linksys WRT54G router would give me this weird home page. I would reset it and it is fine and then it comes back again about in a week. It is also random. Any clue why it keeps doing this? Thanks. I upgraded to the latest firmware too.

    What antivirus program are you running? I've had a very similar issue before w/ Panda Antivirus and this very same Router. It seems some AV programs blocks those type of scripts that are ran on the Router's config. pages. So, you may need to uninstall your antivirus program and not just disable it to rule it out as the issue.

    Well you wouldn't know unless you test by uninstalling it to know for sure if that is indeed the issue.

    Edit: You could/should also try connecting to the Router using a directly connected ethernet cable.

    Also, if you can try using another computer to access the Router's Config. page.
