Channel issue using Linksys WRT 54GL

Have set up a hotspot using hotspotsystem - and from my indoor router I have connected the WRT on my roof. After setup everything seemed to be ok (using Auto on channel), and I had a strong signal. When moving WRT to the roof - the signal became very poor. In the instructions hotspotsystem (provider of concept) I read that in Europe they strongly recomend using channel 1,7 or 13. I've tried them all without any luck. I'am locaded in Canary Islands.
Happy if anyone have any suggestions for a final solution to my problem. THANKS in advance for helping me out...

Well regarding this you can try the following steps :-
Update the router with a latest firmware first of all ( You can find the latest firmware from the cisco website )
Reset the router for 30 sec
Reconfigure the router again.
Change the Wireless channel to 6 , 9 or 11 and then observe the connection..
Checked the option which says "Block Anonymous Internet Requests" under the security tab on the setup page of the router

I have a Cisco/Linksys WRT-54G wireless router and 2 Airport Extremes (the small ones that plug directly into the wall). Is it possible to extend the network from the router using these two AEs? I have a DVD player and Ext HD plugged into the router too..

I have a Cisco/Linksys WRT-54G wireless router and 2 Airport Extremes (the small ones that plug directly into the wall). Is it possible to extend the network from the router using these two AEs? I have a DVD player and Ext HD plugged into the router too. Any ideas? I'm guessing the only way is to do what I've seen in these community pages which states that it can be done but it will drop the bandwidth by 50%. Thoughts?? Thanks!

The Cisco/Linksys WRT-54G was one of the very few routers said to be compatible with Apple's implementation of WDS (Wireless Distribution System) settings.
The info that I have on file indicates that only the WRT-54G versions 4 and under were compatible, so that would be one bridge to cross.
Even if you find that your Cisco/Linksys might be the right version, Apple never published instructions on how to configure the Express devices with other manufactures, so users were left to their own devices to try to figure out how to get things working. Apple's instructions to connect to other Apple devices are in the link below:
WDS network
If you were hoping to use 2 Express devices in this type of configuration...even if it works...the bandwidth penalties will be extremely severe.
The first Express drops the bandwidth (and speed) on the entire network in half and the second halves everything again. So, the result, in effect would be a "g" wireless network running at 25% speed. Few users would consider installing this type of network.
At this point, it becomes one of those things where the fact that you might be able to do something does not mean that there would be much value in doing so. But, it is your decision to decide if you want to try to proceed.

Westell 7500 modem bridged to Linksys WRT-54g connectivity issue

Hello,
I have been trying to bridge my Westell VersaLink 7500 to my Linksys WRT-54g V8.0 flashed with dd-wrt.
1. I started by hard resetting both the router and modem
2. Disabled the walled garden.
3. Went into My Network > Network Connections > Broadband Connections > VC's edit > Changed Protocol from PPPoE to Bridge
4. Changed Bridge mode to Bridge
-Hit Apply
5. Went back to My Network > Network Connections > LAN > Unchecked Private LAN DHCP Server Enable box
-Hit Apply
6. Went back to My Network > Wireless Access Point > Turned off Wireless.
-Hit Apply
Turned off modem.
Unplugged Ethernet from Westell and plugged into LAN port on Linksys
1.Went to 192.168.1.1
2.Reset UN and PW
3. Went to Setup
3. Changed Router IP from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.254.1
4.Clicked Connection Type > Changed
Auto Config to PPPoE (found out by Westell that I am in a PPPoE area)
5. Used UN and PW credentials from Westell router as UN and PW for PPPoE Wan Connection
6. Hit apply changes
7. Waited for router to reboot.
8. Went to Wireless > Changed SSID and Password to my liking.
9. Hit apply.
10. Went to status > WAN > hit connect > CONNECTED
Unplugged Linksys WRT-54g
1.Plugged one Ethernet cable into the Westell 4/Data port > to the Internet WAN port on Linksys
2. Plugged another Ethernet from LAN port 3 to PC
3. Turned on Router waited untill Power light, Ethernet 4 light and DSL light came on.
4. Plugged in Router and waited untill it was up and running.
5.Turned on PC
6. No internet.
7.Released and Renewed ip in cmd (ran as admin) still nothing.
8. Default Gateway is 192.168.254.1 as is DHCP Server and DNS Server.
Can someone tell me what is wrong and/or why this is not working and how to fix it.

Port-channel issue with FI-N7k using rate-mode share

Hi Dears,
I'm trying to using port-channel between Fabric Interconnect (FI) and N7K. in N7K use rate-mode share and LACP but the port-channel in N7K was suspended.
I was trying :
1. I using non dedicated port in Nexus 7010.
      - rate-mode share
      - channel-group 1 mode active
      - switchport mode trunk
when i using this option, the port-channel in Nexus 7010 was suspended
2. I using non dedicated port in Nexus 7010
     - rate-mode share
     - channel group 1 mode on
     - switchport mode trunk
when i using this option, the port-channel in Nexus 7010 was came up, but in Fabric interconnect was failed.
3. I using dedicated port in Nexus 7010
     - rate-mode share
     - channel group 1 mode active
     - switchport mode trunk
when i using this option, the port-channel in Nexus 7010 was suspended
4. I using dedicated port in Nexus 7010
     - rate-mode dedicated
     - channel group 1 mode active
     - switchport mode trunk
when i using this option, the port-channel in Nexus 7010 was came up and running well.
is any other way to configure port-channel in N7K with rate-mode share and LACP ?
or it's some of limitation in port-channel when using rate-mode share at N7K ?
nb: fabric interconnect only support LACP and cannot be configurable.
regards,
Berwin H

HI Mark,
1. Can you please check your ethernet card ...where this port channel connected..on the server.
    may be there are 2 different card.
2. from cisco websites:

Want to use linksys wrt300n as a ethernet bridge while the router is a time capsule.

The time capsule is connect to my modem and my wrt300 is downstairs. What I want to do I use my time capsule a my router and the wrt300 as my ethernet bridge. How do I set my wrt recieve the single from my time capsule. The wrt300. Is running dd-wrt firmware. The reason I want to do this is that I have a slingbox and it needs to be connected by Ethernet. By using the wrt as a Ethernet bridge it should work. I just need to know how.

All sounds good.. tend to use the older dd-wrt firmware to do this.. 2.4 linux kernel is far more successful than later 2.6 versions of dd-wrt.
You must manually setup wireless.. plainly only 2.4ghz is going to work.
So jump into the airport utility manual setup.. and go to the wireless page.
Depending on how old your TC is, setup a wireless name.. no spaces no special characters.. very short also is just as useful as very long. tc24 will do nicely.. Change the name of the 5ghz if it is later model to something also similarly simple.. tc5 might be nice. Call the TC a nice name again no spaces.. which it will have by default.. no special characters pure alphanumeric. TC is nice simple name.. Hard to forget really.
Set manual channels for the 2.4ghz.. this is utterly important.. repeater or bridge does not work with auto bouncing all around the place. Choose a suitable channel out of 1, 6, 11.
5ghz won't matter so you can leave that on auto if you want.
Lastly security..
Let me suggest to start leave security off. Get it setup so you know it works then come back and test the security levels.
I am not sure what to select here.. you want wpa but the dd-wrt says not wpa+wpa2..and apple do not offer straight wpa as the bridge cannot resolve which to use.. you might need to use wpa2.. but that doesn't work on some routers with repeater.. or bridge.. you are going to have a bit of trial and error here.
Make the password something nice.. you guessed it pure alphanumeric.. no spaces, no special characters.
be creative and simple.. tc24passkeynot5 .. of course use what you like.. I am giving examples to make it easier. Update the TC.
Now just do the bridge setup on the WRT300.. there are two kinds of bridge.. client bridge and wireless bridge.. there is also repeater. Client bridge has no routing .. that is what you want. But it does other things which may make you go back. Please note bridges are strange beasts.. this is going to hide clients behind the Linksys MAC address.. and it can lead to issues.
Anyway read the setup tutorial. http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Client_Bridged
You will find earlier one if you use the index.. this is also useful to read. And is more extensive.
http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Wireless_Bridge
There are several scattered around and I can point you to others.
When you are finished you will often need to reboot both boxes to get the bridge to establish.
Once you are done. See how it goes..
I tend to advise people that wireless bridges are flakey and will do down at the moment you want them to work. You can get EOP adapters which tend to be more reliable and use the WRT300n in wan bypass as a switch and WAP.. This is much more reliable.

Error when trying to sign into Linksys WRT 120N router management page, indicates browser authentication not capable - a HTTP401 error.

In trying to get into the Linksys WRT-120N router's management utility browser, I was unable to sign in. After resetting the router multiple times and exhausted all the variants of the username/password combination that I can find and think of, I was still unable to sign in to the utility browser. Just for the sake of trying something different, I opened IE 8 browser and was able to sign in just fine. This tells me that FF has a problem with authentication, somewhere along the request information aren't being sent correctly to allow signing in to the utility page of the router.

hi , here is a step by step for for you need to do..
a:- Do not use the setup disc....remove it and keep is somewhere safe.
b:- Disconnect the USB cable from the modem and PC and keep it somewhere safe as well
c:-turn off the modem and PC....
d:- with the power plugged in....reset the linksys router for 1 minute...once done , unplug the power.
e:- connect the modem to the "internet" port of the router and connect the PC to one of the other ports..
f:- turn on the modem only.....wait for 1 minute for the modem to initialize
g:- turn on the router and PC.
h:- on the PC...hit "start">>"run">>cmd and enter ....now the black window should stay up......type ipconfig and enter.....the IP u get should be 192.1638.1.100....if so...
i:- bring up your web browser and key in http://192.168.1.1 and hit go.....type the password as "admin" when prompted...
j:- under the setup page....look for an find MAC address clone.....enable and "clone"......save settings and check if you are going online.

Help with Video Performance Issues using Flash

Asking on behalf of a customer who has been unable to get any answers so far - are you able to help?
Background:
We have a port of our Game Development Kit which allows us to recompile all our games using Crossbridge (http://adobe-flash.github.io/crossbridge/) into SWF without any code modifications.
Overview:
Our framework is using OpenGL for rendering and we have successfully ported it along with the audio and video to run in Flash.
We are experiencing performance issues using Video. We cannot use image sequence as some of the video animations are too long and would increase the download to an unacceptable size. Assets vary between 256x256 - 1024x1024 videos.

Here's the rest of the story. Let me know if you can see any resolution, and I will connect him to the forums. Thank you.
Current Video Solution:
We create an instance of NetConnection, NetStream, and Video according to most samples out there, and invoke draw to rasterize the Video DisplayObject into a BitmapData instance.
The BitmapData instance has a fixed color component layout which is not compatible with Stage3D texture and is therefore has to be reformatted before uploaded to Stage3D Texture (See Code Listing below).
Our Problems:
Performance issues with RGBA conversion (either using copyChannel or manually reformatting is not fast enough) natively in as3; this required for stage3d texture.Copying each channel individual using bitmapdata.Copychannel seems faster, but not significantly faster.
Cannot detect when video frame has been updated, therefore we may copy pixels that are not needed in enterframe (processpixel).
Looping video, our current solution uses the NET_STATUS event Buffer empty; Is there a better way to loop videos than checking buffer and seeking to 0.
Stepping video, loading FLV or MP4 side by side assets from HTTP or embedded does not support stepping? Is there another way?
ActionScript Code Listing:
video_nc = new NetConnection();
video_nc.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS , onConnect);
video_nc.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR , trace);
video_nc.connect(null);
// OnConnect Event:
this.ns = new NetStream(e.target as NetConnection);
eventclient = new Object();
eventclient.onMetaData = onMetaData;
this.ns.client = eventclient;
ns.play(flvfile);
ns.pause();
//onMetaData event:
this.width = infoObject.width;
this.height = infoObject.height;
this.textureWidth = NextPowerOfTwo(this.width);
this.textureHeight = NextPowerOfTwo(this.height);
cliprect = new Rectangle(0, 0, this.width ,this.height);
cliprect.x = 0;
cliprect.y = 0;
cliprect.width = this.textureWidth;
cliprect.height = this.textureHeight;
totalFrames = infoObject.duration * infoObject.fps;
this.hasAlpha = true;
if(infoObject.videocodecid == 5)
this.hasAlpha = true;
this.bitmapData = new BitmapData(this.textureWidth, this.textureHeight, hasAlpha, 0xff000000);
this.video = new Video(this.width, this.height);
this.video.attachNetStream(ns);
this.video.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, processPixels);
// processPixel method:
BitmapData.draw(video);
GLAPI.instance.glBindTexture(GLAPI.GL_TEXTURE_2D,this.textureId);
var fmt:uint = GLAPI.GL_ARGB;
// converting pixels using copychannel or loop through pixels
GLAPI.instance.glBindTexture(GLAPI.GL_TEXTURE_2D,this.textureId);
GLAPI.instance.glTexImage2D(GLAPI.GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, fmt, this.textureWidth, this.textureHeight, 0,fmt, GLAPI.GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, 0, convBitmapData.getPixels(cliprect));

How are devices connected? What is the IP address/subnet mask, gateway of your computer?

WRT-54GL

Hello!
I have a small problem: I would like to get a wifi signal on my LAN ports of the WRT-54GL.
The signal is there, no security on it. Yes I can hook the WRT by cable to the Internet, but I just want to try things.
The firmware on this WRT is DD-WRT.
How do I have to configure the WRT to get the WiFi signal into the WRT?
Greets,
Brainbox

I'm not familiar with routers that has DD-WRT firmware, but in order to connect your devices wirelessly to a secured network, you need to configure the wireless settings first. I prefer doing it manually and I usually follow the Linksys KB's step by step procedure.

EA6900 Wireless Auto Channel Issue

EA6900 Firmware: 1.1.42.156465
Wireless auto channel doesn't properly analyze network for channel selection and spacing.
It's best with this device to use a third party software like free "Wifi Analyzer" for mobile devices to find out which channels are not use in at the location and manually set the EA6900 wireless channels.
Please remember to Kudo those that help you.

Communities Technical Support

Have you experienced this to your other wireless devices? If so, relocate the device at least a few feet away from the router, not too close nor too far. Make sure to use different name for both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless settings. You may also change the wireless channel on your router to avoid interference. Preferred channels to use are 1, 6, 9 and 11 since they're considered as non-overlapping channels. If this doesn't help, you may reflash the router's firmware then reset the router for 30 seconds and reconfigure it.

Internet Connection Problem with WRT-54GL

Hi there Folks, I recently bought a Linksys AG-241 gateway and a WRT-54GL Wireless Router. The Gateway works seamlessly by itself through my laptop, but now that I have got all of the glitches worked out in the Intel Wireless card in my Dell Inspiron laptop and finally got the thing to work and receive a signal from the W/Router, I find I can't access the internet (or at least can't load any pages, once I'm past the set-up page). The Gateway has an IP addy of 192.168.1.1 and the Router has an IP address of 192.168.2.1. What on earth have I mucked up this time?. If you need any more info, please by all means ask. I was really stoked that the wireless card finally works, and now this has bought me back down to earth. Any help you guys can give me would be most gratefully recieved. Cheers, Mike.

hi try changing routers IP to 10.10.10.1, also try reducing MTU to 1452...check whether it makes any differnce or not.

I have a wireless network using Linksys's WRT54GR each is...

I have a wireless network using Linksys's WRT54GR each is set as a wireless access point. The PC is working great on the network but the MAC is having troubles as it moves through the apartment. The MAC even shows connection to the correct access point but yet there is no internet. If we unplug the access point and plug it back in the MAC is re-establishing the connection. I checked the apple site and they recommended different channels on the network. I have tried this. I know the network is functioning because the PC is connecting without a problem. Any advice or ideas would be appreciated.

try channel - either 1 or 11
beacon interval - 50
Fragmentation threshold - 2306
RTS threshold - 2307
if this doesn't make any difference..try updating the drivers for the wirelss card on the MAC

X99 SLI plus and Quad Channel issues

Hey guys. I just managed to get some time to throw together my new rig, and am experiencing a very frustrating problem.
I bought the ms9 x99 SLI plus, 4x4 gigs of G.Skill ripjaws 2666 ram, and a 5820k.
I initially put it all together, and it wouldn't post. After a process of elimination I discovered it would post with 12gb of RAM in slots 1,5, and 7. But as soon as I add one to 3, it's hooped. It also won't boot with 1,3,5, or 1,3. It will boot with 1,7, just 1, just 7 etc.
I've browsed the forum and found that this problem with these exact parts has arisen in the past, but I couldn't find a definitive answer. I also took a look at the CPU socket and didn't see any bent pins.
I installed windows fine, it runs fine, installed drivers etc (and its hella fast), but I do need that additional RAM for work. I'm planning on updating the BIOS tonight, and I tried clearing the CMOS early on.
Also I know its not the RAM as it boots with each stick by themselves. It seems to be a Quad channel issue, or a DIMM3 issue.
Any information is greatly appreciated. It's a super sexy board and I'd hate to have to dismantle, send it back, etc. I'm going to Hawaii in a week and was hoping to have all this working.
Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately you will have to. There is no magic and this is obviously hardware issue, whether it's the board or CPU.
Start with inspecting CPU socket pins. You will need a magnifying glass or you can take clear macro pictures of the socket.
Best do it on a bench outside the case, any non-conductive surface will do, wood table, cardboard etc. don't use antistatic bag.
Be very careful when mounting/unmounting the CPU, do not touch socket pins and CPU contacts with your fingers.

New Ipod Touch 5g can't access Internet in home network (using Linksys E4200 router). But, OK with other Wifi.

Just bought new Ipod Touch 5g. I found out it can't access Internet in home network. not really cannot access, but very slow to open any web page, App Store failed to access, etc. But, OK with other Wifi (office & starbucks). Others existing iOS devices (Iphone4 & Ipad2) have no problem like this. I'm using Linksys E4200 router at home. anyone has any idea why?

Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>GeneralReset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
