WRT120N does not accept my ID / password when you are using a linux (mint box)

I have a LAN House running boxes with different OS. "I can connect to my router, a WRT120N with no problems to http://192.168.1.1 from runing android Tablet and an old box of Windows XP, but when I try my main desktop, Linux Mint, (browser Firefox. 18.0.1) running, I get the same screen" 401 authorization required"as planned, but after I enter exactly the same user name and password and click"OK"screen" 401 authorization required "reappears with the empty boxes again.

If I click Cancel, I get a page saying:

401 authorization required

Browser can not perform authentication or authentication failed. »

I don't see what I'm doing wrong, any advice would be appreciated!

Thank you.

Found the answer to a variety of messages earlier on this forum.

The router will not accept authentication if the Firefox browser is set to 'Sites of Tell I want to be the subject of a follow-up'. Strange, but it seems to be a long-standing oopsie in the Linksys/Cisco software.

Under Firefox 18.0.1 (running under Linux Mint), there is a checkbox entitled: sites say I won't be the subject of a follow-up. Located under Edit > Preferences > privacy

I checked it and YES! My connection to the router WRT120N works now.

Thank you very much indeed!

BTW the firmware on my router WRT120N is 1.0.04Firmware Version: v1.0.04

    Ideas: I downloaded bandoo and Yahoo since then I had nothing else problems. It's not my computer that I use, but I don't have the permission from the owners to use this computer. I have no problem signing into my account, it is impossible to connect and it does not recognize its administrator password to remove these items from the computer. I tried all that I know (which isn't much). Please please help me!    Also, I think that's why I can't return and before restore point I made this big mistake.

  • Does not accept my product key when you try to save office 2007

    I have earlier after this computer at least two years has attempted to register with the product key on the sticker on the side of my hard drive.  Office home and student came installed on my computer when I bought it.  I get a message telling me that the key is invalid and return.  I am doing an assignment for school where I need to insert comments in a document, I do not think that option is availible on work is it?  So I have two questions I guess.  I really appreciate any help I can get in this matter.  Thank you.

    If you have Office pre-installed on your computer when you bought it, it is a trial version.

    You must purchase Office, once the trial has been exhausted.

    The product key on your computer's operating system Vista, not the Office Applications.

    You can buy Office from the link above, or your local computer/Dept store.

    3. Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
    4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.

  • Mail does not accept account hotmail password and now I can't reinstall the Hotmail account

    I "upgraded" to El Capitan recently and for the last week, had problems with Mail does not recognise my password of the Hotmail account. I thought it would be a good idea to delete the account and try to reinstall the account, but of course he still doesn't accept the password, so now that I'm completely stuck, and other proposals of support do not work when the account is not to start there. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. I have several accounts email for different purposes and it is more convenient to access throughout the Mail

    I solved this problem by logging into hotmail using a web browser, then click on: EMAIL, ACCOUNTS, then POP and IMAP and POP options changed, Yes.  Try experimenting with this option online.

    Good luck
