Why would my microsoft wireless router stop recognizing any computers except the host one on my home network? I have reset and restored the settings on the router and checked my cable modem but it will not allow any of my computers to access the internet except the host one. It has been working for a long time without any problems. Help!

All the computers can connect to the wireless router but cannot access the internet? or the computers cannot connect to the router itself? It should be easier to troubleshoot the problem with this info clear.

Most obvious thing is that you suffered a Power Spike and have scrambled the Router.

If you had not touched it all that would have been required is to unplug the Router leave it that way for about 10 seconds and then plug it back in.

As you have reset the Router you now need to to grab the Routers Setup Disc or Manual and configure the Router. By pressing the Reset Button you have deleted all of the settings in it and you need to reset these before it will work again. It also wouldn't do any harm
to unplug the routers Power Lead for several seconds either.
