Aris TG1682 wireless slow and ethernet wired connection

Have been having a problem with Wireless speeds. The Comcast tech has replaced my single band gateway with a dual band Tg1682g. Did not improve wireless speeds. Have Blast up to 150m. Speed test is about 30-50.When i attach with a wire, I can see the ethernet adapter dropping and reconnecting on the network adapter page. Have two PCs. One at Windows 10 and one at 8.1. Speed test will run wired and shows 30-40. Saw on the forum that this a new gateway so wondering if it has the correct firmware and settings ? also tried using bridge mode to eliminte wireless completely and still see adapter dropping. tech coming back next week to prove my computers are the problem.

You may want to call Comcast and have them check to see if your gateway has the appropriate firmware for your speed tier.

Home Sharing not working between wireless PC's / devices and ethernet wired PC's on the same router.

Home Sharing is not working between wireless PC's / devices and ethernet wired PC's on the same router. I installed a new Verizon FIOS ActionTec MI424WR GigE wireless / ethernet router, replacing the original FIOS router. With the old router Home Sharing worked fine across and among all iOS and Windows wired and wireless devices. With the new router Home Sharing works between and among the Wired PC's but not between the wired PC's and the Wireless connected PC's or iOS devices. Home Sharing also works between and among the wireless connected PC's and iOS decices but not between them and the wired PC's.
Only the router was changed. No changes were made to any of the devices except all were updated with the latest version of iTunes 10.7.0.21 and the iSO devices were updated to iOS vrsion 6.01. Three PC's are wired and all are running Windows 7. There also is a Windows Home Server connected to the router by ethernet port. It does not run iTunes but does provide WebDAV services to my iOS devices. This works fine. Two PC's are wireless, one running Windows 7 and one running Windows 8. All of the PC's are connected to the same (new) router via it's ethernet ports and it's wireless access point. Two of the wired PC's are connected via a high-speed ethernet hup that is connected to the router (Home Sharing works fine between the two PC's on the hub and the PC on the router). All wired and wireless devices on the router are visible and members of the router's Home/Office virtual network.
All of the PC's are visible in the Windows network and all shared files are accessable from all PC's, both wired and wireless.
Obviously the router seems to be the issue, something between the ethernet and the wireless access point components. I checked the settings and found nothing that would prevent Home Sharing between the wired and wireless devices. There is no setting that isolates the wireless network. I have done the following:
Read the router user manual and checked all the settings
Rebooted the router and tested.
Turned off the router's firewall and tested.
Home Sharing is turned on all the devices and all use the same Apple ID.
Restarted iTunes and tested.
Verified iTunes is "Allowed" in each PC's firewall.
Again, I can Home Share between the two wireless PC's but not between either of the wireless PC's and any of the wired PC's. I can Home Share between my iPads and iPhones and either of the two wireless PC's but not with any of the wired PC's. I can Home Share between any of the wired PC's but not between any wired PC and a wireless PC or iOS device.
I hope someone may have had a similar problem and has a fix suggestion. I'm stumped! I have a;so contacked ActionTec and awaiting an answer.

Solution from ActionTec is:
Log into your router.
Click the Advanced icon
Cclick Yes
Click on the IGMP Proxy
Select Disable
Click Apply

Can AirPort Extreme join a wireless network and share the connection to ethernet connected devices?

Can AirPort Extreme join a wireless network and share the connection to ethernet connected devices?

Yes, if the AirPort Extreme is joining a wireless network that has been created by another Apple router. In this case, it will be extending the wireless network and the Ethernet ports are enabled on the "remote" AirPort Extreme.
No, if the AirPort Extreme will be used with another router from another manfacturer.
Ironically, the less expensive AirPort Express can do what you ask about with virtually any wireless network using a special feature called ProxySTA. It won't extend the wireless with a non-Apple router, but the Ethernet port will be enabled.

Switched from DSL to cable modem. My Airport light won't turn green. Keeps blinking orange. No wireless now and can't connect to more than one computer! ?????

Hmmmm.
If you reset the AirPort Extreme by holding in the reset button for 9-10 seconds and then releasing, the AirPort should be back in default settings which would allow mutliple computers to connect to the LAN ports on the AirPort.
Power off the cable modem for now and leave it off at least 15 minutes.
With the AirPort Extreme still powered on, hold in the rest button on the back for 9-10 seconds and release. Allow a full minute for the AirPort Extreme to restart to a slow, blinking abmer light.
Then, power off the AirPort Extreme.
Check to make sure that the Ethernet cable from the modem is connected to the WAN "O" port on the AirPort Extreme.
After the modem has been powered off for at least 15 minutes, power it up and let it run for 5 minutes by itself.
Now, power up the AirPort Exteme and let it run for 2-3 minutes
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Connect an Ethernet cable from your Mac to one of the LAN <-> ports on the AirPort Express
Click on the AirPort Exteme, then click Continue to follow the guided setup tp configure the AirPort Extreme. You can use the same wireless network name, password, etc that you used before, or set up a new name and password, etc.

Slow Internet on wired connection, fast wireless on same network

Hi,
My Internet connection has just been upgraded from 2MB/s to 10MB/s. To confirm the upgrade I have used www.speedtest.net with Firefox 3.5.1 to test my upload/download speeds. I have 2 computers on my network which consists of a cable modem connected to a white airport base station with 128 bit WEP encryption in 802.11 b/g compatible mode. The 2 computers are a dual 2.8 ghz MacPro which is wired directly into the Airport base station by Ethernet and an iMac 1.83 Intel core 2 duo which connects wirelessly. Both machines are running OS X 10.5.7. The much faster MacPro only achieves a download speed of 5.7MB/s over its wired connection while the slower iMac achieves 9.8MB/s - very close to the advertised speed over its wireless connection. Both upload at the same 512kb speed. These are consistent speeds not one offs so I am wondering why the difference? The MacPro is my main machine so I'd like to have the best speed possible on that.
I have tried connecting the MacPro directly to the Cable Modem, bypassing the airport base station and get the same speeds.
Any ideas? What else can I try?
Thanks for reading all that, I've put in as many details as possible, I'm really stumped!
Thanks in advance,
Alan.

First, be sure you're not confusing "MB/s" (megabytes/sec) and "Mb/s" (megabits/sec). These will normally differ by (roughly) a factor of 10. The value of "9.8MB/s" over 802.11g is presumably actually "9.8Mb/s", as the higher value exceeds the maximum rate for that protocol.
Second, what type of Ethernet cable ("CAT-x") are you using? An older cable can cut your maximum data rate.
What speed do you see with the iMac if you connect it via Ethernet?

Will my cp1518ni connect to my network wirelessly, or do i need to use an ethernet wired connection?

I cannot find out how to connect my cp1518ni to a network with out using the ethernet connection. Is it possible to do it wirelessly?

No, sorry, your printer does not have wireless capability. Ethernet cables can be very long, however. Also you could invest in "powerline ethernet" that uses your home's electrical wireing for the Ethernet connection.

Slow Xbox 360 Wired Connection Speed

My Xbox 360 Elite console is connected to my home network using a wired connection, but it has a slower speed (gathered using tests on this website) than all of the wireless devices connected to the network. The console achieves about 3 mbps, which is more than 3x slower than what all the wireless devices can achieve.
Here is a basic network map:
ISP ---> Master Router ---> 5-port Ethernet Switch ---> Slave Router ---> TV
                                                     |
                                                     v
                                               Xbox 360
All wired devices have been labelled
All wireless devices are connected to either router
The TV cannot be tested as it does not have an Internet browser
Can anyone explain why the console achieves a much lower speed than the wireless devices? If so, can a solution be provided?
Thank you.

I forgot to mention I recently changed the wiring of the network.
Old wiring:
ISP ---> Master Router ---> 5-port Ethernet Switch ---> Slave Router
                                           |                     |
                                           v                     v
                                     Xbox 360              TV
New & current wiring:
ISP ---> Master Router ---> 5-port Ethernet Switch ---> Slave Router ---> TV
                                                     |
                                                     v
                                               Xbox 360
The old wiring made the Xbox 360 download at ~300 kbps and not able to stream videos (neither could the TV). I don't understand why the change of wiring increased the speed so much.

Wifi slows down the wired connection?!

Hi!
I have two PCs running arch: one laptop and one desktop.
Laptop has two interfaces one wlan and one wired one:
2: wlan0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP mode DORMANT group default qlen 1000
link/ether c4:17:fe:d4:a9:4a brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Desktop only one wired:
2: enp2s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP group default qlen 1000
link/ether 90:e6:ba:0d:3f:b9 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

valid_lft 78774sec preferred_lft 78774sec
inet6 fe80::92e6:baff:fe0d:3fb9/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
Both wired interfaces are 1000 Mbps/Full duplex as well as Ethernet Switch is 1Gbps capable.
I noticed that ssh connection estableshed from desktop to laptop (when laptop connected over wireless) is very laggy. Sometimes it's ok, but sometimes the response comes like 10-15 seconds after the command was typed in. I found it strange, since the rest of the wireless clients @ home, like two Android devices as well as Windows-powered laptop don't experience any similar lag whenever connecting to Internet (Ethernet switch is integrated with Internet gateway).
Anyway I decided to use HW WiFi switch on the laptop (to turn WIFi off) and established a wireline connection from laptop to the switch. After that ssh (connected to wireline IP of laptop) went smooth and seamless. I even ran a iperf test showing the expected throughput:
laptop (wired ip 192.168.1.103):
iperf -s
Server listening on TCP port 5001
TCP window size: 85.3 KByte (default)
[ 4] local 192.168.1.103 port 5001 connected with 192.168.1.155 port 45763
[ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth
[ 4] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.10 GBytes 941 Mbits/sec
desktop (wired ip 192.168.1.155):
iperf -c 192.168.1.103
Client connecting to 192.168.1.103, TCP port 5001
TCP window size: 85.0 KByte (default)
[ 3] local 192.168.1.155 port 45763 connected with 192.168.1.103 port 5001
[ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth
[ 3] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.10 GBytes 942 Mbits/sec
So the iperf flows go 192.168.1.103<---->192.168.1.155 at full speed, and as said, ssh is not laggy.
Now guess what? If wireless interface gets re-enabled (HW switch is switched on), the throughput on the same path gets drastically reduced and lags reappear! And yes, I'm absolutelly sure no traffic actually goes between desktop's LAN iface and laptop's wifi!
See the log
laptop (wired ip 192.168.1.103, wireless ip 192.168.1.75):
iperf -s

As you can see no traffic goes through the wireless IP address, still the throughput is "wireless", although endpoint is specidied as wireline. ssh connected from desktop to laptop's wireline also lags if it was connected to wireless IP.
P.S. While I was doing the excercise above, I saw even more weird picture. The iperf to wireless and LAN IPs were giving exact same result of ~ 1 Gbps throughput, which is clearly cannot be the case for connection between wireless and LAN.
I'm a bit lost, seems like Linux sends all the traffic through one or another interface no matter what IP address was targetted by a TCP/IP session. Can anyone clarify this?
Thanks!

crondog:
The issue is actually not the TCP/IP binding, which works well as expected, rather a loose behavior in L2/ARP domain. What linux essentially does whenever it has dilemma which of several interface to use from a number of interfaces in the same subnet/L2 domain, it uses the one pointed to by a default route. So it doesn't really matter if the L3 application targets one IP or another, the responding box can reply you using the other interface, though with originally targeted IP address.

Question about Linksys G Wireless Router and i cant connect my iPod Touch and PSP to it.?

I just got a new Wireless router and it works fine.The model number is WRT54G2. The internet is working and I can go on my xbox live and things like that. The only problem is that my iPod touch and things and my PSP can detect the connection but are unable to join it. Why is this. It was working fine on my previous router. Is there some security thing I have to take off? How do i do this? Thanks in advance

I tried this and it went to a redish gray page that said "401 Unauthorized Authorization required" Help please?
It means you entered the wrong password or username, try some other passwords you might have used if the default admin doesn't work.

Very slow and erratic wifi connection

My wifi connection is very erratic. Often when I am working online, my internet connection will suddenly be lost. When I look at my Task Manager, the Performance graph shows no activity and lists my connection speed at 0 Kbps. I often have to disconnect and reconnect, which sometimes brings it back, but not often. When my connection comes back, the Performance graph shows wild spikes. My laptop is the only computer working on wifi, and the router is not far from the laptop. I am also disappointed in my internet speed, even when working with a wired connection. It seems to be faster on weekdays, slower on weekends, and super slow in the evenings. Before I had Comcast, I had Verizon, and I never had any issues with wifi. Comcast was supposed to greatly improve my connection speed, but instead it has greatly diminished my internet speed and offers a terrible, erratic, and often nonexistent wifi connection.

Thank you so much for your reply. Funny...Comcast never mentioned anything about speed depending on neighborhood density when they were luring me away from Verizon with promises of greatly improved internet speed. I now wish I had never left Verizon. I should have believed my friends when they told me how awful Comcast was. Thanks again for your reply.

Instructions for extending a wireless network through a wired connection

These are the instructions for extending a wireless network by wiring two airports together.
The benefit of this is to provide a strong signal in more locations in your home or business.
The advantage of this technique over WDS is that the wired connection is faster and more reliable.
These instructions assume you have a) an existing wireless network setup using an airport , b) a new airport that you want to add to your network, c) you can run a cat 5 cable between the two airports, and d) you are familiar with the airport utility.
If while using these instructions you are prompted to update your airport firmware please do so.
1) Gather the following information from your existing Airport on the Summary tab of Airport utility:
a) Wireless Network Name
b) Wireless Security
c) You will also need the password, which hopefully you just know.
2) Plug in your new Airport, connect it to the existing Airport using a cat 5 cable.
3) Reset the new Airport using the tip of a paper clip. On my Airport Express that is next to the audio out.
4) After a short wait the new Airport should appear in Airport Utility with a generic name.
5) Click the new airport and click "Manual Setup". You may have to cancel out of some popups to get to the Manual Setup button.
6) On the "Base Station" tab set a "Name" that does NOT equal the the name of your old Aiport. Also set the password. This us the password that one uses to make changes to the setup of the Airport.
7) On the "Wireless" table set a "Wireless Network Name", "Wireless Security", and "Password" to exactly match that of your old Airport. This is the password that one uses to gain access to the network.
8) On the "Internet->Internet Connection" tab set connection sharing to "Off (Bridge Mode)".
9) Click "Update" at bottom right of Airport Utility.
10) Test by using "Advanced->Logging and Stats->Wireless Clients" to see which clients are connecting to which Airport.

Do I even need the Wireless N router at all, or will the Westell do the trick? I'd be looking to stream HD from my main home PC, so I need good wireless speed.
I assume that there is a tv in your media center so what would make much more sense would be to get a coax splitter and split the coax at that tv and then move the vz westell router to the other side of the splitter. It really makes no matter where the westell router is on the coax setup and doing this should allow you to connect your devices directly to the router.
So the coax feed from the ONT comes in through the garage into the office and is connected to the Westell in the office (which is hard-wired into my office PC). If I move the Westell to the entertainment center I'll be in the same boat w/ my office PC then, i.e. needing a wireless connection to the Westell to get internet access. Am I missing something here?

Time Capsule and Ethernet cable connection

A simple question (I hope).
I currently have a 1TB Time Capsule working as my network wireless router and my Time Machine backup device. The TC is connected wirelessly to my iMac.
I would now like to connect the iMac to TC with an Ethernet cable in order to sped up my regular backups. (Heck, maybe it will give me a boost in Internet connection rates, too?)
My question is this - will simply plugging an Ethernet cable into my iMac and my TC work, meaning, will I have to drill down and change settings? Or will plugging in an Ethernet cable mess up a system that has for months worked flawlessly?
Thanks for the help!

Matthew Palm wrote:
So you are saying I should push Ethernet to the top?
Yes. That's how I have it. If Ethernet is first, it's my understanding that OS X will try to connect with it first. If an Ethernet connection isn't available, OS X will work its way down the list until it finds a connection. I know it doesn't stop at that point, as I routinely have simultaneous connections with Ethernet and AirPort. The AirPort signal where my MacBook normally is is weak, so I depend on the Ethernet connection. I'm guessing that the order of connection items may play some part in prioritizing the use of network connections.
I definitely DO want to keep my Airport connection (i.e., wireless network), as I do indeed need wireless internet in my home for my iPhone, iPad, and my AirTunes streaming (which is sent to my Airport Express).
What I've recommended won't affect any of that.

WRT1900AC - wireless device shows as wired connection in device map

Just purchased the WRT1900AC and going through the process of setting up my devices.
I have a fitbit aria wireless scale and after connecting it to the router it appears as a LAN device instead of a wireless device in the device map. It appears to work, so it's not a functional problem but rather a cosmetic one.
The device has firmware 1.1.8.164461 (updated today).

Yes there is a known bug regarding this.
