Fixing Bellsouth DSL and wireless router

For some reason my wireless router and Bellsouth ADSL stopped working. It took me a while to figure out the reason but here is what finally fixed it:

1) Sign into ADSL router (192.168.1.254) - Reset the device
2) After all connections come back up - have the ADSL router disconnect for BS severs (I think it was a disconnect button)
3) Logged into my Linksys router - had it connect to the PPPoE

Can explain the particulars but I feel like have done this before.

Bisquick Coffee Cake

OK, this is what my wife wanted for part of her Mother's breakfast meal. Thank goodness for the internet since they do not print the classis recipe on the box anymore.

Bisquick Coffee Cake

Avoid Limp Bisquick, don't over beat.Everyone needs a classic coffee cake recipe. I’ve taken the liberty of doubling the streusel topping, you’ll thank me for it. Simple to make and leaves your house smelling really good on Sunday morning.

Bisquick Coffee Cake: Betty Crocker

Heat oven to 375°F.

Ingredients:

* Cinnamon Streusel (below)
* 2 cups Original Bisquick® mix
* 2/3 cup milk or water
* 2 tablespoons sugar
* 1 egg

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 375°F. Grease 9-inch round pan. Make Cinnamon Streusel; reserve.
2. Stir remaining ingredients until blended.
3. Mix in a 1/4 of the Streusel topping and spread in pan. Cover with Cinnamon Streusel.
4. Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until golden brown, testing with a toothpick.

Cinnamon Streusel Topping

* 2/3 cup Original Bisquick® mix
* 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
* 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
* 4 tablespoons butter or margarine (firm)

Mix all ingredients in small bowl until crumbly. Cutting them with a knife and fork helps seperate the butter.
