I'm trying to setup my laptop w/ "Linksys EasyLink router" but I keep on
getting a message that says, "TO RUN THIS APPLICATION, YOU FIRST MUST INSTALL
ONE OF THE FOLLOWING VERSIONS OF THE .NET FRAMEWORK: v2.0.50727 CONTACT YOUR
APPLICATION PUBLISHER FOR INSTRUCTIONS ABOUT OBTAINING THE APPROPRIATE
VERSION OF THE .NET FRAMEWORK."

I'm currently on ".NET framework 1.1"

How do I know what .NET framework to download online?

You can get the base .NET 2.0 here (assuming you have a regular x86 system):

After you install this, be sure to visit Windows Update to get the
needed updates for .NET 2.0. I know that there is at least a sp1 for
..NET 2.0, but I don't know what else may be available.

*However,* you do not need the "Linksys Easy Link Adviser" (which is
what I assume you're talking about) in order to configure your router
and/or computer. You might even be better off if you took a few minutes
to understand how to configure your network manually.
