Another PS3 wireless to WRT54G question

Ok first off i have read tons of PS3 and WRT54G posts and i find nothing that is similar to my situation.
First off i have a PS3,PSP and a Squeezebox 3 that i am trying to get connected wireless to my WRT54G v6.I have WEP enabled on the router so for all three devices i manually assign an IP,WEP key,DNS and so on but they will not respond no matter what configuration i try.
The only way i can get these to work online is to connect them to a seperate wireless bridge like the WMB54G or the WET11.I configure those with my WEP keys and IP's and all is well.I have yet to connect them straight to the router hardwired but i am really looking to get these setup by having then use their own wireless configuration.
Since all three of these do not work on their own i find that it could be a router thing but then again they connect by a wireless bridge just fine.
Anyway's thanks for anyone that knows what it could be.

Well i finally just got connected to my PSP with WEp enabled.It looks like the PSP liked the KEY 1 but i had the default key of 4 asigned instead.I changed it to 1 and it is good.This is where i found my info.

Airport, Airport Express, iPhone & PS3 wireless network will this work?

Hi I need help with the above,
I've got an iMac 15" G4 800Mhz, it is fitted with a standard airport card, the G4 is connected to the internet via ethernet to a Zyxel P-600 Series ADSL modem. I have also been streaming itunes (using airtunes) to a seperate hi-fi amp in another room using an Airport Express Base Station, THIS ALL WORKS.
I have since bought an iPhone and a Playstaion3 (PS3) and want this all to work together but does not. It would seem that the Airport Express Base Station is the dominant part of this network and I want to change this priority. No matter how far I delve I cannot find the answer. Basically I want the following setup:
iMac G4 (with Airport Card) that is connected to the internet via ethernet to be the 'main Base Station' (not the Airport Express as is currently), I then want to continue streaming Airtunes to the Airport Express and also use this device as a booster for the wireless network. The reason for the new wireless setup is to enable the iPhone to connect to the Internet (the iphone currently sees the network but cannot connect to the internet because the Airport Express is NOT connected to the ADSL Modem), I also want the PS3 to connect to this network.
Am I asking too much of the Airport Card (The one in the G4)? or should I simply buy the new Airport Extreme Base Station and start again?
Any help would really be appreciated, Paul

sorry if i sound stupid but does that mean that if i'm using the AX to stream music (using Airtunes) I cannot simultaneously use it as a wi-fi extender?
That situation is possible.
If so can I set up the AX to just stream music and then use an Airport Extreme Base Station hard wired to the ADSL Modem and the iMAc and connect the iPhone and PS3 to the internet via the AEBS wi-fi network. Essentially creating one wi-fi network for iPhone/ PS3 wireless connection and a seperate Airtunes network for wireless music streaming, or am I just dreaming, cheers for your help.
Sure you can do that. But then you will have to decide if you want to stream music OR you want to be on the internet. Your computers can't connect to both at the same time.
You probably want to do the above, but configure your AX to join the wireless network provided by the AEBS. Then you will only have a single wireless network and you can stream music, print, and surf the internet all at the same time.

PS3 and linksys WRT54G. found a fix!!! please look

http://vibrantreality.wordpress.com/2007/10/27/ps3-and-linksys-wrt54g-the-solution/ not sure if it has been posted but it works!!! enjoy

Let me review my setup. I have a WRT54g Version2 Linksys Router. The Router firmware has been updated. I have two computers wired to the router and they work fine. I have a Linksys Media Center and a Laptop that work in a wireless environment and they work fine. The ISP is Comcast.
The PS3 is wired through a Linksys switch to the same Router. The switch is a Linksys Etherfast 10/100 8-Port Workgroup Switch EZXS88W ver 3.1. On the PS3 I have tried all the combinations of DNS that I can identify. The setting for MTU is at 1492 which matches the status shown on the Router screen. I have tried UpNp in both the Disabled and Enabled modes. I am currently using the DNS's that appear on the Status page of the Router.
On the Router I have set the IP address for the PS3 up as a static address in the DMZ as 192.168.1.2 UpNp is currently disabled. I have assigned ports to the static IP in the Gaming screen and enabled them..I have entered the DNS's numbers from the Status page on the Setup page for the Router as static IP DNS's.
If I connect the Laptop to the same wire that the PS3 is currently connected to, the laptop comes up fine on the Internet. The PS3 finds the IP address but continually gives me the DNS failed (80710102) error message. This is also true if I run the PS3 in a wireless environment.
Your assistance is greaty appreciated.

PS3 issues with WRT54G V7

Ok I have FIOS internet and I bought a new Linksys WRT54G V7 router once my Verizon router bit it. I was able to setup my connection for the PS3 much easier with this router BUT now every time I turn on the PS3 and access the menu (whether I first turn on the PS3 or exit a game I was playing) my connection to all my other WIRED pcs in the house drops and will pick right back up. I am using the PS3 wirelessly. I have updated the firmware on the router and the PS3 is up to date. I was using a static IP address and tried dynamic as well. Any suggestions? Thanks!

I fixed it! I disabled the media server on the PS3 and it is fine now

Lost IP access to Linksys wireless router WRT54GS v.4. How to restore?

Apologies for the long post and multiple questions. If you can answer at least one of them, I will be appreciative!
While attempting to set-up wireless networking between my new Westell Model 6100G and Linksys wireless router WRT54GS v.4 (with most recent upgraded firmware), I lost access to the Linksys. When I hooked up the Linksys again via Ethernet to my XP PC with the modem no longer connected, I was unable to access it via IP 192.168.1.1. All I get is a blank web browser page (with the usual “diagnose, etc.” button). I assumed this is because the IP address conflicts with IP for the Westell, but I am also concerned if it is hardware failure. I have tried resetting the router, but no luck. I have tried ipconfig /all which gave me a different ip address. But when I tried to access the Linksys using this ip address, I was unsuccessful. I hooked up the router to a different pc with no present Internet access and tried IP 192.168.1.1, but still no luck. Trying the IP I got from ipconfig /all at this new pc failed as well.
Is there a chance I have a hardware failure? I had access last night when the linksys was at its original location (I only checked it once before turning in), but I seem to have lost access ever since I moved it closer to my desk and to a new electrical outlet. When turned on, the Linksys has green lights in the right places, so it looks fine, but, again, no access via IP.
If it’s not hardware failure, how do I find out what IP address the Linksys actually uses now if it is no longer 192.168.1.1? Or how do I change it?
Is a WRT54GS v.4 worth the trouble or should I start over and upgrade to a newer router?
Is Linksys the best choice with the Westell 6100G? The configuration procedures seem very complicated compared to my ease of router/modem configuring in the past.
Solved!

"_when I setup the Westell modem in bridge mode, will I lose my Internet connection?_ "
Answering my own question: "yes."
I found what looks like a good step-by-step guide to hooking up a Westell 6100 to a Linksys
router at:
http://www.dslreports.com/faq/vz/4._Hardware#13600
It provides more detail and up-to-date illustrations than Verizon's instructions at
https://www22.verizon.com/ResidentialHelp/HighSpeed/Networking/SetUp/QuestionsOne/87126.htm
(which appear to be for an earlier version of the Westell 6100), although they are otherwise similar. The DSLreports faq confirms that Internet and IP access to the modem will be lost during the setup phase. For a "newbie" at such linking, this bit of information is very helpful!
Thank you, Telcoguru, for confirming that I should have followed the instructions exactly from beginning to end before becoming concerned and skipping steps.
I will close this thread and wait for a long lazy day, to try linking the Westell and the Linksys again. If I need to post again, it will hopefully be with more specific questions about specific steps that haven't worked as they should.

PS3 Wireless

I am really confused why i keep lagging on ps3 wireless for the past couple of weeks, before that it was fine. Laptop wireless is fine, getting speed very close to ip profile. PS3 on the speed test i can get about 14MB which is much more than enough for gaming, but i lag! Wired then i do not get lag. I am currently playing while using a bridged connection via my lapop, so my ps3 uses the internet coming to my laptop via connecting ethernet between my laptop and ps3 and then i also dont lag. I have tried multiply HH3's. Anyone have any idead what the problem is?
I have ordered homeplugs now but still want to know the problem

Download throughput doesent have much to do with lag, its your ping or latency that causes that.
I cant offer a solution, but you could try testing the ps3 wirelessly nearer to the HH if possible, even better if you can line of sight it without walls or obstruction. If the lag goes then the location is your problem.
Using the bridge method works because the wireless chip in the laptop is probaly better/ has better drivers.
Can you do ping test from the ps3 and its browser? that would tell you if your latency is good or bad.

Linksys Wireless Router: WRT54G Version: 2

I was just curious, since I have been talking to someone about the Linksys Routers and they were saying that WRT54G Versions 3, 4 & 5, all work successfully. Then when I asked him about Version 2, he said that he THINKS that the router will work.
Can someone please give me an answer: Will the Linksys Wireless Router: WRT54G Version: 2 work with a MacBook Pro?!

I get from 3 to 6 Mbps wireless and wired, which is considerably slower than my other Windows-based desktop and notebook over my 30 Mbps cable connection. My Dell notebook and desktop consistently get 15 Mbps wireless and 22 to 28 Mbps wired. Mac OS is relatively new to me, so I haven't had a chance to read as much I need to about optimizing connection speeds. But, I can either fix it by optimizing it, or perhaps Apple will come out with a firmware update since some people have been complaining about slow connections speeds and dropping connections.
In my work, I have several computers going at the same time, and for typical Web surfing, I see no difference in speed between the 6 Mps on the Mac and the 15 Mpbs on the Dell---it's really limited anyway by the Web site server. I do notice a difference in download times, but even for very large files, the difference is noticeable but not a problem. And, there has never been a problem streaming video or downloading trailers, etc.
Of course, only five years ago, my cable connection was first 128 Kbps (which was high speed then), then they jumped it up 1 Mpbs, then 10 Mbps, and now 30 Mbps---so the 6 Mbps on the Mac still seems pretty fast to me.
Speed will always be slower over the wireless compared to your Ethernet connection, but once you get speeds in excess of 1 Mbps, you only see the difference in download times, surfing is the same.

I need to limit the range of my wireless router WRT54G - Any ideas are appreciated. I don't want to put on a password if I can avoid it. Thanks for you advice in advance. Milwaukie

Trying to confine a wireless signal to your home is not a practical solution to security concerns. The distance that a wireless signal will travel is mainly limited by the receiving antena and sensitivity of the receiver. An ordinary wireless receiver can probably pick up your signal for 200 to 1000 feet. A great receiver could probably pick up your signal from a mile or more. The best alternatives are:
a) convert your system to a wired system, or,
b) encrypt your wireless using a good encryption method (WPA or preferably WPA2) and use a strong password.

Wireless Router WRT54G and VPN RV042

Go to Solution.

If you are getting a public ip address from the ADSL device then connect RV042 to the AdSL device and then configure the settings for wrt54g connected to RV042.with DHCP disbled and connected from LAN on RV to lan On WRT.

Linksys Wireless Router WRT54G Version 3

I just purchsed and installed a Linksys Wireless Router WRT54G Version 3. It works great in my somewhat small ranch type house. I'm presently just using it so I can wireless access the internet with my Dell notebook computer from any room in my house. My operating system is Windows XP. If I decide to upgrade to Windows Vista in the future will my Linksys Wireless Router WRT54G Version 3 still work ok?
Frank

yes, i think it will work... just make sure that the firmware of your router is up-to-date with the latest releases from linksys... you can check it out at http://www.linksys.com/downloads and just choose the model no. and version of your router... also, try to check the knowledge base website at http://www.linksys.com/kb ... i hope this helps... good luck buddy
