Cannot make WiFi connection with Linksys X2000
Hey ,
I have been setting up my Cisco X2000 wireless router recently and I have it working fine for my wired connections, however for some reason when you try to use the wireless none of our smartphones, can connect, unless using a wireless guest account.
I tryed different security settings with different passwords, but none worked (WEP, WPA, WPA2...)
Can someone help me out on this problem? I can't imagine what would be causing this.
Firmware Version: v2.0.05
Thanks,
Karel
Solved!
Go to Solution.
Got my solution from the Live chat:
Jermine P: Here are the steps to set up the router for cable connection:
Step 1 - Hard reset the router to ensure that all previous settings would be erased, please follow the instructions below.
1. Make sure that the device is turned on.
2. Press and hold the reset button at the back for 1 minute. Use a paper clip to do the reset.
3. Remove the power plug and wait for another a minute.
4. Turn on the device again.
Step 2 - Access the setup page.
1. Connect the main PC to port one of the router and restart it. Connect the modem to the Internet port.
2. Launch your browser (like Internet Explorer). In the address bar, type http://192.168.1.1 and hit GO.
3. A login prompt will come on, leave the User Name blank and type admin for the Password.
Step 3 - Setting up the router to work with your ISP.
1. Under Setup tab, click on MAC address clone sub-tab.
2. Enable MAC Address Clone and click on Clone My PC's MAC.
3. Click "Save Settings" button.
Step 4 - Personalizing the wireless settings of the router.
1. Click on the Wireless tab and set it to Manual.
2. Change the Wireless Network Name (SSID) from "linksys" to your preferred name (example: My Network).
3. Set Channel Width to 20Mhz and change the Wireless Channel from Auto to 11.
4. Set SSID Broadcast to Enabled.
5. Click "Save Settings" button.
Step 5 - Securing your wireless network.
1. Click on the Wireless Security sub-tab just beside Basic Wireless Settings.
2. Change the Security Mode from None to WPA2 Personal.
3. Type any word on the Passphrase field for and take note of it.
4. That will be the Password for you to connect to the wireless network.
5. Click "Save Settings" button.
Step 6 - Power Cycle.
a. Shut down the computer.
b. Unplug the power cord of the router followed by the modem.
c. After 3 minutes, plug the power cord of the modem back in and wait for the power light to get solid before plugging the router back in.
d. Turn the computer back on as soon as the power light on the router becomes solid.
e. Check your Internet connection.
strange thing is that I set the modem up this way in the first place, but without the power resets and it didn 't work.
Thanks to Jermine P for the efforts taken.
Greetings,
Karel

How did you install Windows? Did you use Bootcamp Assistant or did you use a virtual machine like Parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox.
If you used Bootcamp Assistant, did you download and install the Windows Support software (drivers) in accordance with the Bootcamp instructions? -
how do I set up my airport to make a connection with my Hp? I already have it set up for my mac laptop just not sure how to set it up so that theres also a connection with my Hp
I set up my new HP Descjet 3054A . I had a problem becouse Apple give me CD as a driver. The thing was that CD wasn good for this printer becouse it was old software:) I had to go to Apple store so the specialist had to download me he wright driver. Becouse I didnt wannet to screw this up . When he downloaded driver I fired it up at house and thingworks perfect. The thing is when you download all the software from HP side . Then you have to connect your MAC to printer via USB . Fallow the instructions it should works. Worked for me. Good Luck!

How can i fix my wifi connection with my router
how can i fix my wifi connection with my router?
I think I'm having a similar problem, my wifi disconnects when a bluetooth device is connected to the MBA.
I have a MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2012) with WiFi and Apple Trackpad. I'm unable to use the trackpad(bluetooth) and wifi at the same time. If I turn off the trackpad then the wifi works fine and if I shutoff the wifi then the trackpad works fine. This configuration was working fine prior to upgrading to Yosemite.
I experienced the same problem at home and at the office.
Additional test:
I turned off the bluetooth trackpad and connected my bluetooth headphones to the MBA. The wifi disconnected as soon as I paired the headphones with the MBA.
I have had no problems with the MBA's keyboard or integrated trackpad.

I recently installed CS4, and I can not make a connection to my website. Message an FTP error occurred and cannot make a connection to host. The remote host cannot be found.
Open up your site definition (double-click on the site name in the File panel or choose Site > Manage Sites > Edit) and go to the Remote Info category. There, click Use Firewall (if it isn't already selected) - press Test to try the default firewall settings. If that doesn't work, click Firewall Settings. You'll see two relevant settings about 2/3 down - Firewall host and Firewall port. If Firewall port is 21, there probably is something blocking the port.
On Windows XP, you may have the Windows Firewall installed and blocking. Here's how you get to it:
To open Windows Firewall
1.
Click Start and then click Control Panel.
2.
In the control panel, click Windows Security Center.
3.
Click Windows Firewall.
Once you have that open, you'll need to set Dreamweaver as an exception to blocking:
On the Exceptions tab, click Add Program.
In the list of programs, click the name of the program (Dreamweaver) that you want to add, and then click OK. If the name of your program is not in the list of programs, click Browse to locate the Dreamweaver.exe in the Program Files folder and then click OK.
Hope this helps - Joe

Cannot establish wireless connection with WRT54G after power-off
My WRT54G (firmware v7.00.0) is connected to cable TV modem and
usually the wireless connection works fine, but after swiching off and later
on the power to WRT54G a laptop cannot establish WiFi connection to internet.
I can see in Odyssey software (for wireless communication) that my laptop
found the right network (SSID) but in status it says 'waiting for keys'.
I use WPA2 (TKIP). The laptop does not connect to internet.
When I connect it by cable (ethernet) the internet works fine, I have noticed
that by accessing the web-page utility of the router and simply clicking
save changes on wireless-settings page (without making any changes in
the settings) my laptop instantly establishes wireles connection and
everything works fine till next power swich-off.Thanks for reply! I have my network in preffered, and the software/laptop locks on
the network (see it, says it have excellent signal strenght) and gives note
'waiting for keys' (the WPA2 encription key is in the settings - both of router and laptop client - Odyssey).
I've got firmware ver.7 so it is probably the latest. -
New imac 27(Intel based,bought 2013) slow wifi connection with my Verizon fios actiontec router. All other wireless devices in the house(ipad 3gen,MacBook Air ,hp laptop) have a much faster connection. Should I change router settings to G only,switch channel from auto to maybe 6,channel width to 20mhz? Already changed security settings to WPA2. Currently router is running in mixed b and g mode.
If you have one computer running on G they will all run on G. All ROUTERS are backward compatible, in otherwords if you have a group of computers and all of them are N compatible and one or two are G They will all work but the N computers will run at N and those that are G will run at G speed not N.
It can get confusing but really it is simple. The newest is 802.11 AC and ic used with the newest Mac Computers made available in November 2013. So if you have the newest Airport Extreme that is 802.11ac and the newest computers that are AC compliant your speed will be 5 times faster than anything on the market right now. -
Dreamweaver cannot make a connection to server when enabling Contribute compatiblity
Dreamweaver, inexplicably, cannot enable the Contribute compatibility. I can connect to the site in DW just fine, just cannot connect when enabling contribute compatibility.
I have the same issue here since today!! Both in Dreamweaver CC and CC 2014.ugh, also
Strange enough, also Filezilla gave problems, until I switched to TLS there.ave Norton Internet Security
Could it be that you also have Norton Internet Security, and that Norton did an update today...? I wonder.
Drives me crazy....

Devices (iPad, iPhone) no longer can maintain wifi connectivity with time capsule
My iPad and iPhone can no longer maintain wifi connectivity with time capsule. Time capsule has connectivity to internet via Macbook, but not other devices. This started after upgrade of devices to s/w 6.0. Does anyone know if that could impact connectivity?
Yes, this is often reported with iOS 6.. there are definitely more wireless problems.
I recommend you reset the TC in the following ways.
1. Change all names to SMB type.. ie short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. that includes the TC itself, wireless and hard disk. I recommend a different name for 5ghz so you can force clients to that band without auto voodoo affecting it.
2. Use WPA2 Personal security only.. 8-12 character pure alphanumeric passkey.
3. Lock the wireless channels.. particularly for 2.4ghz.. pick one of the channels, out of 1, 6, 11 as these are the only ones that do not overlap.. test each in turn for the best and most stable. TC should pick the best itself but that is voodoo and I am preferring to run the system without black arts. -
How can I fix an intermittent wifi connection with my MacBook laptop
I have experienced intermittent problems with the wifi connection on my MacBook (2006, 10.6.5 OSX) computer and noticed that other users have commented about this same issue. Not sure if the problem revolves around the updates from Apple or my wifi card but I only seem to loose my wifi connection with the MacBook. I have other Apple products, Iphones, Ipads and IMac and they all retain the wifi connection. Additionally, when I connect the internet cable directly to the MacBook, there is no loss of signal and I have no problem connecting to the Internet.
Does anyone have a solution to this problem?After several unsuccessful attempts to resolve my intermittent wifi connection with a 2006 MacBook (I had service techs from Apple store, PeachMac and Computer Advantage check the intermittent wifi problem in store and they could not recreate this issue), I broke down and bought a new wifi card and installed it myself. The intermittent problem was resolved and my wifi connection works fine everywhere in my home. Ifixit's website has a great video that explains in detail how to remove and install a new wifi card and you will need the right tools and patience. Thanks to everyone that posted comments about this issue because the comments proved helpful in solving my problem.

How to make AE work with Linksys E1500 Router
I use Mac OS X 10.7.5
I want to use my AirPort Express (Serial # C86L11G8DV2R) as an extender to extend my WiFi network at home, but doesn't work because to set up either my Linksys E1500 Router or AirPort Express (?)
Can someone explain how I can set up my Linksys E1500 Router to make it compatible with AirPort Express?
Thanks a lot!You can use an Express to "wirelessly extend" a wireless network created by another Apple AirPort Base Station, but not a third party product.
You can use the Express as an additional wireless access point. To do that, connect it to your existing router with an Ethernet cable. -
I cannot establish VPN connection with rv120w to shrew soft client
1. I bought 2 rv120w router and install one direct to WAN and one behind router-hub.
2. one behind router is set DMZ, and each are conneted Site to Site vpn
3. I need to connect each site with my mobile devices(1 notebook, 2 Win8 tablets, 2 android devices )
4. i use wibro mobile router, win8 devices're behind router, and their fort is fowarded(DMZ)
5. I'll take care of Android devices later, here now, my trouble is Win8 devices
6. i installed cisco QuickVPN software. frankly,that software is shit. i don't know why but it even cannot reach router, no log generated on rv120w. and i dont want PPTP connection. sorry for criticism but I'm sure many of QuickVPN users(and people who fail to be a user) agree with me. it's 2014. not 1998.
Cisco should be shamed for that software. it looks like a second grade collage student's 2nd semester project(Many of them're batter nowadays.) and doesn't work.
more amazing fact is that's only software that RV series provides officialy. What the...so in conclusion, Cisco does not provide any IPSec client connection tool at all. does that makes any sense?
7. i tried 10 or more hours to make IPSec client connection with many vpn client soft ware, this is my closest shot.
