Linksys Router Wireless-G 2.4 GHz Broad Band router..Wont let it connect to the internet.
Okay so i got a router for my PSP and it connects good on the psp well. Its just that when its fully connected, The internet connection on the PC that the router is connected to, wont connect. Anyway i can fix this?

hi...ideally , the PSP getting connected to the internet should not affect the desktop to lose the internet connection..
what u can do is ... access the router using http://192.168.1.1 .. keep the username blank and password as "admin" .. if u changed the password during the installation , u need to type that password ...
once on the ui...go to status tab and check the firmware version...
now, go to www.linksys.com/download and select the router model and version no. and check the latest firmware on it.. if the router is not having the latest firmware , upgrade it first..then reset the router and reconfigure it ...

It won't let me connect to the internet wirelessly!
I am having a problem connecting to my router/modem wirelessly.
Actiontec
Model Number:MI424WR
I tried disabling WEP and enabling it as well but I still can't connect wirelessly. I tried rebooting my router/modem and my computer but it still won't help me. I checked everywhere in my sever to find errors but nothing came up. I can connect to the internet in my PC but any other wireless devices cannot connect to the internet wirelessly.
Message Edited by Darkchiplv on 08-18-2009 07:37 PMDoes your PC use a wireless utility software or Windows Services? Do you get any messages? Does your PC wireless pick up any networks at all?

Picking up wireless signal, but it's not letting me connect to the internet
I live in a college dorm, and I pick up an airport signal from someone else, and last night the internet was down all around. This morning however, it came back up and I have a full airport signal, but I can't connect to the internet through it. Additionally, it keeps scrolling, 'looking for PPPoE host', and I keep getting a little pop up window from internet connect asking me for some password (I'm not entirely sure what password). I was messing around with the settings on my computer last night making sure that it wasn't my computer, and I may have done something but I'm not sure what. Does anyone have any idea what I might have done and how to fix it? I would go to the help desk here but they said they can't see me until Thursday, so any suggestions anyone has would be helpful.
Hello dancerhelen2006. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
This morning however, it came back up and I have a full airport signal, but I can't connect to the internet through it. Additionally, it keeps scrolling, 'looking for PPPoE host', and I keep getting a little pop up window from internet connect asking me for some password (I'm not entirely sure what password).
This typically would indicate that your computer is trying to use PPPoE (username/password) to access the Internet service. If the Internet provider does not require PPPoE, then this would not be necessary.
Let's double-check your AirPort settings ...
System Preferences > Network > Show > Network Port Configurations
o Verify that an AirPort option exists. If it does not, click "New" to create one. (Note: If you are unable to create an AirPort configuration, the AirPort card in your computer either doesn't exist or it is not recognized.)
o Verify that AirPort is "On" (checked)
o Verify that AirPort is at the top of the list. If it isn't, you can drag it to the top.
Systems Preferences > Network > Show > AirPort
AirPort tab
o By default, join: Automatic
TCP/IP tab
o Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
o Configure IPv6: Automatically or Off
Proxies tab
o Configure Proxies: Manually
o Select a proxy server to configure: <All proxies should be unchecked unless you specifically require a proxy for Internet access.>
o Exclude simple hostnames (unchecked)
o Bypass proxy settings for these Hosts & Domains: <leave blank>
o Use Passive FTP Mode (PASV) (checked) -
I have a Linksys WRV200 wireless router and the wireless signal is not working properly so I am unable to connect to the internet wirelessly. The wireless light is blinking green very quickly and I connect and disconnect from the network constantly. How do I get the router to work properly
Hello James,
The flashing WLAN light means activity (data getting transferred). Try disconnecting all your devices and check whether the light is still flashing or disconnect the router from internet and do the check.
Do you have your SSID as linksys or the default one? If your neighbor has the same SSID, then traffic could result from your neighbor's one. Try changing your SSID and password. Make your security WPA/WPA2.
Hope this helps,
Thanks

Can't Connect To The Internet Or Router
I have had my router set up for about three years. It's always worked perfectly fine until the other day. I think that the router just died, but I'm not sure and I want to try and fix this one before I just go out and buy a new one.
Basic Background Information:
Model No:WRT54GC
-The router is and always has been hooked up to a surge protector and there haven't been any other recent surges in my home.
-When the wireless router is connected to the computer (using a functioning Ethernet cable ) I cannot connect to the internet or the router. (I can't even put the IP into a browser and bring it up. I also tried the factory setting IP, just incase it actually did reset, and that doesn't work either.)
-When the router is plugged in I can't see it from any other wireless computer. (I also checked for any new signals and did not see any after I reset the router.)
-LEDs look like:
*Power = solid green
*Internet = solid green
*wireless = hard to tell - doesn't look like it's on at all
*all other Ethernet pluggins = solid green
What I've Tried So Far:
-I couldn't connect to the internet so I plugged the modem directly into my computer. --> The internet works.
-I tried unplugging the router, waiting, and then plugging it back in. --> I couldn't connect to the internet or the router.
-I tried the reset button. --> I couldn't connect to the internet or the router.
-I tried leaving the router unplugged all night and then plugging it in and starting the process all over again. --> I couldn't connect to the internet or the router.
-I also tried downloading new firmware, but since I can't connect to the router through any of my browsers I am unsure how else to update the firmware.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Message Edited by mcgree on 08-08-2009 03:29 PMTry upgrading your Router's firmware and then you can reconfigure your Router from the scratch...
As you are not able to go online through router...you have to download the formware by connecting computer to the modem..
Go to website linksysbycisco.com/downloads.........insert model no of your router in serach tab......select proper version of your router........download the firmware file......save that file on desktop
Now reconnect the Modem to Router on Internet Port and from Computer to Router on Ethernet Port 1and now Press and hold the reset button for 60 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...
Now you can upgrade the firmware using TFTP utility...Download tftp utility.
Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device : -
Double click the TFTP.exe file and click run.
For Server- Enter the IP Address of the router that you assigned. By default, the router is 192.168.1.1...
For Password- Enter the password you assigned the router. By default, the router’s password is “admin”.
For File- Click the triple “…” button and browse for the .bin firmware file...
Click Upgrade button to start upgrading. A progress bar should show up to show the progress.
Once the Upgrade is done press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

Just can't seem to get the router to connect to the Internet!
I've had a D-Link DI-604 router for about 4 years-- and wanted to go wireless with an Apple Extreme but first have borrowed my neighbor's D-Link DIR-635 to just see if this will work in my brick house etc. (3 stories, lots of cement and brick...)
Well I get as far as the 192.168.0.1 and then "clone" my MAC address. Note: I was using the same computer to connect to the internet as I previously had used with the D-Link DI-604.
I also give a manual (easy-to-remember) 5-letter password to my wireless connection--
But although this "reboots" the modem, it does NOT let me connect to the internet...
So I'm back to my D-Link 604 cable (wired) only...
One thing the set-up asked for is my HOST name. The only thing I see in the Network System Preferences is an ethernet number: 00:16:cb:cd:6c:3e but I don't find a "HOST" name-- and is that really needed? (In Belgium I'm using an ISP provider "VOO")
Any comments really appreciated-- I could actually see a fairly strong signal from the wireless router (I named it "SteveHermee" and I could see strong bands even from the top floor, with router in the basement...)-- but I could never connect to the internet via CABLE (wired) or wireless.
Thanks,
Steve
Saturday 15 March 2008Bonjour,
J'étais absent ce week-end, désolé de n'avoir pas pu répondre plus tôt.
Pour récapituler, la configuration suivante fonctionne :
- Modem ADSL connecté au routeur wifi DIR-635 par câble RJ45.
Par contre, la réception est faible dans une pièce éloignée. Il faut d'abord vérifier si le routeur wifi peut être déplacé dans la même pièce, en tenant compte des contraintes ci-dessous :
- Loin d'une prise de courant (> 2m) ;
- Loin d'un appareil comme un téléphone intérieur portable ou de sa base ;
- Le plus près du centre de l'habitation ;
- Assez haut (au moins sur une table).
En changeant le positionnement de ma borne Airport installée au rez-de chaussée, j'ai doublé la force du signal à l'étage (murs et plafonds de 30cm en béton armé).
Si vous voulez changer le positionnement du routeur wifi DIR-635 dans votre réseau local, il faut respecter les contraintes suivantes :
- Le modem doit être connecté au port WAN d'un routeur ;
- Le câble téléphonique du modem doit être court, mais le câble RJ45 de connexion du modem au routeur peut être long (20m sans problème) ;
- Pour connecter un routeur X à votre routeur wifi DIR-635, il faut que le routeur X dispose d'un port "UpLink", et c'est ce port "UpLink" que vous devez connecter au port WAN du routeur DIR-635.
Le routeur X est alors configuré pour distribuer les adresses IP via DHCP, c'est pourquoi il faut empêcher le routeur DIR-635 de le faire en le configurant en mode pont.
Je me suis procuré une doc technique du DIR-635 (User Manual DIR-635 version-1), et il me semble que la page 14 indique comment le faire, mais je n'arrive pas à lire ce qui est inscrit sur la copie d'écran.
Il y a certainement une option pour "étendre un réseau existant" ou quelque chose de similaire.
Difficile de vous donner plus d'information sur un matériel que je ne connais pas.
Par contre, en ce qui concerne la borne Airport, je pourrais mieux vous dépanner.

Linksys Wireless Router BEFW11S4 - Shows connected, but I can not connect to the internet
I have a Linksys Router hooked up to a cable RCA modem using Comcast Cable. There are 3 laptops that hook up wirelessly to the router and they have been working fine for the past two years. However, recently all three laptops can not connect to the internet for some reason. I checked with Comcast and they checked out the modem and tested it and it works fine. When I hook my laptop up to the modem with an ethernet cable, it works fine and I can get on the internet. When I hook the modem up to the router and try to connect wirelessly it appears to be fine. It shows that the router is connected there is connectivity on all our laptops, however when I open a new internet explorer page to get on the internet, it does nothing. A blank page appears and the webpage will not load. Does anyone know how to fix this? Is it the router or the way it is setup in the admin page or could it be possibly something else? Thanks.
As it shows connected under wireless ....check the Ip address under wireless network connection .....
If it shows Ip 192.168.1.X ....with gateway 192.168.1.1 ..... try to pnig the gateway address ...
If getting reply try going online ....
Also disable the firewall first..... -
Issue in connecting to the internet wireless with my Linksys
OK. Here's the deal. I am entirely frustrated and also over my head trying to solve this on my own as I have no idea what I'm doing.
I have a Mac Powerbook, OS X (3.9). I have always connected to the internet wirelessly through my Linksys router (Wireless B Access Point, Model Wap 11).
I have recently moved and now use Comcast for my internet. When they installed my internet, I had not yet unpacked my wireless router, so I was set up to be connected via the actual cable plugged in. Now that the router is all set up, I cannot for the life of me get my wireless to work. Currently, I can use the internet wirelessly in other homes/school no problem. In those cases, I don't do anything, I just turn on my computer and it connects automatically. But for some reason in my apartment I cannot make it work.
I *think* the problem lies somewhere in the IP address area? If I look at my Airport settings and go to the TCP/IP tab, there is no information contained on the screen. Meaning, in the area where it says IP Address, Subnet Mask and Router, there is NO data listed, just gray empty space. The same goes for the DNS Servers and Search Domains areas, but at least in that case there is a white box to input text.
I can choose the "Configure IPv4 Using DHCP Manually" and that will let me input numbers, but I have no idea if I should even be playing around with this.
Also, perplexing me even more, is the fact that I can choose my Linksys internet connection through the Airport screen, and when I have selected it, I show full bars. But I can't actually connect.
Silly me, I attempted to call Comcast for help with the issue, but they say that as long as I can connect to the internet in any way (plugged in) then they do not care that I can't connect wirelessly.
I miss checking my email in bed...someone please help!!!
Thanks a million in advance for any and all help.
-ktAre u talking about routers username , password? Well there is one routers username ,password (default is "admin") and the other is your cable ISP username , password (on the routers webpage). I am talking about the latter. If nothing works, try resetting your router ... You will have to configure it again (doesnt take much time if you know it).

I have a MAC desktop and RCN cable that I have internet through now. I tried to set up a linksys wireless router today and could not get the network settings right, or figure out how to create the network, or get connected. I was successfull for only a few minutes because my phone and laptop had picked up the signal. However my desktop still would not connect to the internet. I had to restart my cable modem after because even after returning to directly inserting the desktop to the modem I could not get on the internet. I am able to get on now but would like to have wireless for my laptop and phone. Do I have to have an Apple router? Are there any easy steps I can take to set up a network without doing any damage to my desktop? I am so lost and have been getting pop ups and even my time changed.
Please help a new person to Apple!why dont you go to linksys.com/downloads and get the quick install for your adpter

I have a iMac with a built in airport extreme card. Does the imac act as a wireless router so that I can connect to the internet from my iPad by tethering through my iMac?
Depends which iMac exactly and your network setup, you can go into System Preferences and under the Sharing pane you can enable internet sharing from ethernet (or whereever you get your internet from) to Wi-Fi.
-
I cannot connect to the internet on my iMac through my wireless router. I think I screwed up the settings and need to reset them. I know the router is working because I can access the internet on my Dell laptop which is located right next to my Mac.
On your iMac try the following, in order, until (hopefully) resolved:
1a. Delete Preferred Network(s)
System Preferences > Network > Wi-Fi > Advanced > Wi-Fi tab
Under "Preferred Networks," delete the network(s) you regularly use from the list.
1b. Delete AirPort Keychain Entries
Launch the "Keychain Access" application located in Applications/Utilties.
In the windows on the left side: Select login for Keychains and "All Items" for Category.
Click on the "Kind" filter at the top, and look for any "AirPort network password" entries...and delete them.
1c. Add Preferred Network(s)
System Preferences > Network > Wi-Fi > Advanced > Wi-Fi tab
Add the preferred network(s) using the "+" button.
Restart or log out then back in.
2. Move System Configuration Files
(Note: You will have to reestablish your network connections settings.)
Go to /Library/Preferences
Move the SystemConfiguration folder to the desktop.
Restart your Mac. (Note: OS X will rebuild the files that are now sitting on your desktop. If this doesn't resolve the issue, you can move the folder back to it's original location.) -
I have an old PowerPC running 10.4.11 and a Macbook Pro running 10.6.7 sitting side by side. Both are using AirPort to connect to the internet wirelessly to the same wireless router. The old Mac connects with full bars but the MBP struggles with only 2 bars. Pls help, thanks!
BDAqua,
Thanks for the response.
Apple has used the term "Digital Audio" to identify this machine. System Profiler has the following information:
Machine Name: Power Mac G4
Machine Model: PowerMac3,5
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (2.1)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 800 MHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 256 KB
Memory: 768 MB
Bus Speed: 133 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 4.3.3f2
Serial Number: XBxxxxxMK9
Sales Order Number:
Yes, I could connect them by ethernet if all I wanted to do was transfer files, but I would like to network them so I could use wireless internet. The machines are not always so close together, I did that to simplify the testing. With the very slow transfer speeds I am reluctant to move ahead with the internet step.

I have recently installed a WRT54G V8 Broad Band Router....
I have recently installed a WRT54G V8 Broad Band Router. It is supposed to have WPA2 security, however "My Network Settings" shows the security mode to be WPA. Firmware version is 8.00.2. Any suggestions on getting the WPA2 security mode would be appreciated.
Also, you may need updates on the PC side in order to use WPA2 encryption. The two links are to a strong password generator and WPA2 setup instructions (links to patches included).
