Combine RV042G with wireless router

                   Hi,
I bought a RV042 dual WAN router. I have two ISP's, one Satellite Internet and one Fixed wireles. Now I would pefer to hook up both Inernet connections to the RV042 and then connect to a wireless router ( I have a D-Link DIR-655) where I then connect my computers rather wired or wirless. Could anyone please help me with this setup? I would greatly appreciate that. Perhaps there is somewhere a write up about this.
Thanks, Johann

Hi everybody,
I guess I figured it out. works kike a charm now!

  • Airport Express not working with wireless router

    I just bought Airport Express to play music on my stereo. My PC running XP is connected to my wireless router (TeleWell TW-EA510v3) with ethernet cable and airport express wirelessly. Problem is that Airport Utility (and iTunes) can't find AE if it's not connected to router with ethernet cable.
    I can connect to AE from Aiport Utility by "configure other" option so it's connected to my wireless network correctly.
    Is this kind of set up even possible (pc wired to router and AE wireless)? I have tried tried WEP, WPA/WPA2 and no encryption on my wireless network and AE connects ok every time but Airport Utility still can't find it. I even tried to make a WDS network but AE was not compatible with my router. Now I can't come up with anything else to try.
    Is there anything else to do? Should I buy WLAN adabter to my PC and would AE work then?
    Why can't Apple make Airport Utility to recognise AE with given IP like with "configure other" option? Should not be too hard to program?!

    Follow the isntruction lisetd below...they work.
    Actually, the ae is a slick device, once you get it to work.
    Make sure that one (or both) checkboxes in Airport Utility > Airport Express tab
    (middle of page) are not checked...if one or both are checked, they limit (hide) wireless connectivity options (e.g., WEP-64) to choose from.
    P.S. You must have patience: it may take a couple of minutes to establish the connection and turn the led to solid green. So, give it a chance.
    ===============================================================================
    OMG!!! You are da man!!!
    I have this streaming perfectly now!! Here is what I did for others to see and use (it does work perfectly)
    Step 1) Clear/Reset the Airport Express
    Step 2) Connect the Airport Express directly to the Router/Modem via Ethernet to set up Wireless
    Step 3) Do it via the Manual Set-up Effort Listed Below following:
    AirPort > Base Station
    o Base Station Name: <rename or leave default>
    o Base Station Password: <enter desired password>
    o Verify Password: <re-enter desired password>
    o Remember this password in my keychain: (optional)
    o Set time automatically: (unchecked)
    AirPort > Wireless
    o Wireless Mode: Join a wireless network
    o Network Name: <existing Linksys wireless network>
    o Wireless Security: <select the encryption type of the existing wireless network> I have 64bit WEP
    (Same as 40bit on the drop down menu)
    o Wireless Password: <enter the existing wireless network password>
    o Verify Password: <re-enter the existing wireless network password>
    Music
    o Enable AirTunes (checked)
    o iTunes Speaker Name: <enter desired speaker name>
    o iTunes Speaker Password: (optional)
    o Verify Password: (optional)
    o Click Update to write the new settings to the AX
    In iTunes:
    iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
    o Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)
    Once it congratulates you, unplug the ethernet cable
    Verify in Aitport Utility that it still recognizes (if not, repeat the above). Note this may take a few minutes, so be patient.
    Now place the airport express with your stereo (or whatever) and again be patient as it tries to find the network
    (mine took 4 minutes) then it turns green and you are off listening to music on your stereo downstairs in another room.
    Frustrating when it does not work at first, but keep trying and it will work!!
    Thanks everyone for your help!!

  • Problems with Wireless Router and Adapter

    I tried posting this in the wireless adapter forum but nobody responded :-(
    I'm using a WRT54G Router btw, and the firmware is v2.02.7, Feb. 27, 2004.
    Hi everyone,
    I have a Linksys Wireless G Router and several computers that I try to connect with. One of them is a computer running Windows XP and using a Linksys Wireless USB B Adapter (WUSB11). Another is a laptop running Mandriva Linux using a Linksys Instant Wireless Network PC Card (WPC11). Another one is running Windows Vista and using a Linksys Wireless N card. I also have a laptop running Windows XP using a Linksys Wireless-G Notebook Adapter (WPC54G).  I also have another PC running Windows XP and uses a Linksys Wireless USB Adapter WUSB54G. Finally, I have two macintosh laptops running OSX and with airport devices installed.
    Anyway, I have problems with my internet connection frequently being interrupted and even sometimes I won't have a connection at all for hours. This occurs with my Linux laptop, the PC with the Wireless B Adapter, and the laptop using the Wireless G Notebook Adapter. In addition to this, the macintosh laptops have internet even more infrequently. However, I seem to never have a problem with the Windows Vista desktop or the Windows XP desktop that has the Wireless G adapter. I try repairing the connection and often it does not work. I have also tried resetting the router and the cable modem. I'm not sure what else I can do. I even bought a Wireless N router and had little success with that. We even went as far as moving the wireless router upstairs into our living room, thinking that the signal was somehow suffering from interference or that distance was a factor. Anyway, sorry for the long post but I could really use some help!
    Thanks.

    Hi… logon to wireless N router’s setup page, open I.E. an in the address bar type 192.168.1.1 it would ask for username and password, put "admin" as a paassword (default password) without any username...linksys setup pops up, click on on wireless tab and and try changing radio band to wide 40MHz, wide channel to 9 and wireless standard channel to 1 or 11, go to advanced wireless settings reduce beacon interval to 50, fragmentation and RTS threshold to 2304, change N Transmission rate to 270 MBps…also try upgrading latest firmware on router, check whether it makes any difference or not and let me know.

  • Need Help: Trouble with Wireless Router Connection on MBP

    Hi all.  I just bought a MacBook Pro (my first Mac ever) and love, love, love it.  However, one glitch is driving me crazy.  I do *NOT* have an airport but I connect to my cable modem through my netgear wireless router.  When my MacBook Pro goes into sleep mode, I lose the connection to the wireless router.  I have to go unplug the router to reboot it for the MBP to see it again.  I think it has something to do with how it is assigning the IP address.  Has anyone else seen this issue?  Know how to solve it?  Thanks so much.

    See "Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly" on this page:

  • Communication Error with wireless router, Works fine with Ethernet cable.

    Video iChat is fine when my MBP and other MB's and MBP's are at my house using the Netgear 240 rangemax wireless router. I'm currently running High speed Internet via cable modem through Time Warner Cable. When I try to chat with them while they are at home, I get a communication error. I then tried to use the Ethernet cable hooked up to the cable modem to my MacBook Pro. It worked fine. I would like to use video iChat via my wireless router. I don't understand why it is not working. I think it is my router. Do I need to buy an Airport Extreme Base Station or can I still use this router. Can you possibly help me configure this Netgear router? The internet connection is fine when I use the wireless router.
    MBP 15" C2D 2.33   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   Cable Modem, Netgear RangeMax 240 WPNT834 wireless router

    I have not had very good experiences with the Netgear routers. I can't say that it is the router causing your problem, however, it might be the effective wireless bandwidth over your router. Do a speedcheck and determine the download and upload speed with wireless. Hopefully you're getting about 400Kbps up and 400Kbps down or about 1000Kbps in total.

  • [SOLVED] Unstable connection with wireless router using rt73

    I'm using the rt2x00 wireless driver for my rt73 based dongle and I'm on the latest (stock) kernel 2.6.31-6.
    On startup my wireless connection behaves normal. Here's the output of iwconfig :
    wlan0 IEEE 802.11bg ESSID:"dlink"
    Mode:Managed Frequency:2.417 GHz Access Point: 00:1C:F0:C5:C7:0B
    Bit Rate=54 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm

    Link Quality=44/70 Signal level=-66 dBm
    Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
    Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
    Now after some time (15 minutes, half an hour, an hour or sometimes even after 5 minutes) my connection between the dongle and my wireless router gets lost and it sometimes reconnects automatically, sometimes not. In my browser I frequently get an error that my connection is lost. However, if I 'reload' the web page after that I almost instantly get the demanded page. Another option is to restart my wireless network using '/etc/rc.d/net-profiles restart'.
    Here's an output of pinging my wireless router that describes the above behavior :

    Ok, I think I solved the problem.
    I did two things :
    1) switch from wpa to wpa2 (made new netcfg profile); I do not know if that helps much but I changed it since my router (a DLINK 635 wireless N) advises to so since this augments performance compared to a configuration that needs to support both wpa and wpa2.
    2) rebooted my rooter the moment I encountered the connection problem. The router is configured to automatically switch the best channel available. It switched from channel 1 to 7. Apparently there was interference on channel 1 (probably because of wireless network of one of my neighbors ...).
    For some strange reason the combination of these two make my network stable now. I'll cross my fingers and hope this does not happen again anymore...

  • Constant disconnects with wireless router.

    Hello and thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
    I have a WRT54G wireless router with speed booster. I am experiencing constant disconnects when online gaming. I have one PC - running windows vista 64bit ultimate. This computer is running a wireless connection which is secured and is about 10 feet from the router through a wall.
    I also have an xbox 360 with a wired connection. It doesnt seem to have the same issues but does become a bit sluggish at times.
    I have called linksys and they instructed me on how to upgrade to the latest firmware. I think it is 7.5.0 or something. Still having issues. Cox (my ISP) has been out and says I am getting a constant 2mb download.
    Any help would be appreciated. I have talked to linksys again they have me pull up cmd and run a test which shows me at a 4-10% packet loss. They say this is an acceptable rate.
    Still the problems continue. If anyone can help I would be very greatful. If you need more info just let me know and I will provide whatever I can. Thanks!!!

    Sounds like a vista problem, they are breading like rabbits it seems. The WRT54G is a good router, I had one for years with no problems. What type of wireless card do you have in the pc, and is it PCI or USB

  • Can't log in with wireless router

    I have successfully used my WRT54GS v.2 wireless router for a year of two. Tonight I am attempt to connect and cannot. I am using for username and admin for password, per Lynksis instructions (and what has worked in past). It apparently is not recognizing these because after a couple of attempts I get a 401 error message. I have tried Lynksis online chat on a different computer. They had me reset the device, which didn't help. I have also been disconnected from them 3 times, so that's not too helpful. Thoughts anyone??

    reset the router for a minute and do a power cycle...try to access the router again..if still facing the same issue , open IE >> tools >>internet options >> click content tab and click the tabs clear forms and clear password

  • Weird errors with wireless router

    I have a TP-Link router set up at my relatives' place. It works perfectly well with two iPhones and an iPad, with no problems whatsoever.
    My MacBook Pro is a different story. I have set it up with this router. When I manage to get it to work, it works flawlessly... Until my laptop goes to sleep. Then, when waking up from sleep, it does the following things (about 3 out of 5 times):
    1. It keeps searching for networks, and finds several unknown ones (neighbors, etc.) after a long while.
    2. It complains that none of the preferred networks are available...
    3. Then it (sometimes) goes on to list my TP-Link router, even if it clearly contradicts 2.
    4. When trying to connect to it, it sometimes (but not always) asks for the password (even though it's saved in Keychain)
    5. Then it times out trying to connect.
    I repeat, and/or turn AirPort off and on, and after several minutes, it eventually starts working again.
    Signal strength is okay. Two iPhones manage to connect from the same room, at the same time. These, as well as an iPad, always work. 100% of the time. No exception.
    My MacBook Pro doesn't have any similar problems on any other WiFi networks.

  • Motorola Surfboard (combination modem and wireless router) plus Airport time Capsule - 2TB

    I am reading all of the discussion posts regarding the new OS Lion and starting to become wary. Here is my pridicament:
    I have 3 PS3 game consoles (2 are wirelessly connected to the Motorola Surfboard),
    3 PC laptops (also wirelessly connected to the Motorola Surfboard)
    My thoughts were to purchase the Airport Time Capsule with the new IMac and possibly set up a wired connection to the Motorola Surfboard with the Airport Time Capsule, then provide a wireless connection for all of the  Apple products in my home as well as a back up file system. Mind you I have 3 IPhones, 2 IPads, and will be purchasing a new IMac with Retina Display and an HP - LaserJet Pro MFP M1217nfw Network-Ready Wireless Black-and-White All-In-One Printe.Will this be too much on one modem? and has anyone else even tried this type of configuration?
    As smart as I think I am, I am hesitant on making this purchase, and sometimes I feel that sales reps at retail stores tend to be over confident in their knowledge of a wireless home system.
    Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Certainly not.
    The limiting factor is likely to be your ISP's delivered speed. Whatever bandwidth you have will be shared among all the devices. If they're all streaming video at the same time, for example, one or more of them may become slow.
    You don't need to purchase a Time Capsule simply because you're buying a new Mac. The iMac can join any network.
    The Time Capsule can replace the router function of your existing combination modem / router, or it can join your network as either a wireless or wired client. If you want to use it for Time Machine backups, you should favor the latter. It can also create an additional wireless access point if you so choose. The Time Capsule is a very capable full-featured router but if you don't need a router or additional access point, then you can use any external HD for Time Machine backups. That would be a lot less expensive.
    Lion has already been superseded by Mountain Lion. A new iMac will ship with Mountain Lion installed.
    Only certain model MacBook Pros and iPads have a "retina display" - no iMacs.

  • Help with wireless router and usb adapter

    I have a model WRT54G2V1 and a USB adapter. They were working fine until about 3 months ago, then suddenly I couldn't connect to the internet. I began using my wife's computer for my email. I have a web site that I need to update.  I spent 2-hours with Tech support today and they could not help me. The error messages say "cannot find access point" and then sometimes "cannot connect to internet". I think it may be my computer, but am very unsure. I have unistalled and reinstalled with no luck. Can anyone help me, please? I'm lost and not good with this stuff. Thanks.

    In your computer click on "start" then "connect to" then "show all connections".  You should be seeing two icons under "lan or high speed internet"  Your wireless connection should showing a blue screen while the lan should be greyed out.  If the lan is showing a blue screen right click on it and click on disable.  Now try to connect using your wireless adaptor.  If it did not work go to #2.
    Disconnect wireless adaptor then go into programs and uninstall wireless adaptor program.  Reconnect wireless adaptor to computer.  The "found new hardware" should appear.  Run the wizard and when it asks for drivers insert Linksys cd.  Try to connect.  You may have to click on repair if you don't succeed then try again.  Go to #3
    Powercycle your router. Try to connect.  I have three computers connected wirelessly and the one farthest away from the router has problems connecting.  Usually this solves the problem.

  • Diagnostics say I fail on "Printer Settings Consistent with Wireless Router Settings"

    I have a pretty new Belkin router and a pretty new c4780.  I set it up wirelessly with no problem, just pressing the button on the router until the network recognized the printer.  Everything worked like a charm for several weeks, and then when I went to print my income tax info (had to be something really important!) I just got no response from the printer.  When I ran the diagnostic, I got the message above. 
    Is there an easy fix?

    Download and run this utility.
    Your printer is probably not connected to your router anymore.  Re-connect it again then give it a static IP address:
    - Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.
    - Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings.
    - Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
    - On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. You need to set an IP address outside the range that the router automatically sets (called the DHCP range). If you know what that is, set an IP outside that range but no higher than 254 (the last number in the address). If you do not know this, enter the current IP address.
    - Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
    - Leave the gateway and DNS blank. Click 'Apply
    Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
    After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.

  • Can no longer connect to internet with wireless router.

    For almost a year I've had a wrt54g ver 6 connected on my computer with my cable modem and my sons computer with the compatible pci card. Everything worked fine until a few days ago, I came home and could not get on the internet with my computer. My son could, but not me. I didn't change anything at all. So I reinstalled the router drivers and I still can't connect to the internet, but now neither can the other computer. What could be the problem?
    michele

    it sounds like you might have to clone the mac address of the computer that was originally connected to the cable modem. clone mac address can be found on setup tab after log into router.
