Rosie,
Last first: This news group is as good as any other for talking Zero Hour.

As to your main question. I vaguely recall from the days before I had a
router, that Generals and Zero Hour did not like linksys routers, but I am
open to correction.

I seem to recall my own son has logged onto Zero Hour online via our NetGear
DG834G router, but I guess that is no help to you.
