Comcast Troubles with RCA modem and WRT54G

Can anyone help me set up my router with comcast?  I have searched the web endlessly trying to find a fix to set up my router with my modem.  When my computer is hard wired into my RCA modem thinks work like a breeze.   AS soon as I connect my router things go south.  I have endlessly tried cloning Mac address, power cycles (removed battery), to no avail.
Currently I have
Comcast Triple Play with an RCA Modem
Linksys WRT54g running Tomatoe firmware.
Im wondering if the firmware is the issue, or perhaps I am missing a step with that firmware.
Any help would be much appreciated. 

I have no knowledge about tomato firmware and how to configure it. However, configuration should be the same with Linksys firmware. It might be on a different tab or different name though. Here's the configuration.

  • Internet connection sharing with a modem and WRT54G

    I currently have dial-up at my location, I will have dsl when i move down the street in about 2-3 months. My question is, I would like to hook up my WRT54G router to my desktop computer that has a external modem hooked to it. I would like to be able to use my laptop from my shop location out in the backyard without having to tie myself into the computer in the house. How can I be able to use the wireless link between the laptop and the router and have it dial the modem on the desktop so I can access the internet out in the shop? I read that this can't be done if using dhcp. I can see both computers hard drives on each machine. Would anyone know of any software that would allow me do this? Thanks, Joseph

    Configure WRT54G as access point only, so labtop can communicate with desktop that has Internet connection. Enable Internet Connection Sharing on desktop to share the Internet connection to labtop.
    Hope helps..

  • Trouble With Opening InDesign and now Photoshop and Illustrator

    First off I apologize if this isn't in the correct section. I couldn't find a section specific to my problem since it involves multiple aspects of Adobe products. I was having trouble with InDesign, it kept crashing. So I followed all of the advice I could find on the forums about deleting the preferences and cache information in the Library folder, and that didn't seem to make a difference. So then I thought maybe it needed an update, so I logged into Adobe Application Manager and sure enough, it did. So I clicked on "download" and it stalled there too. Then the manager became unresponsive. I couldn't cancel the update or log out or anything. So then I saw in the forum someone suggested the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool if your manager becomes unresponsive. I ran that and then shut my computer off. When I turned it back on, InDesign started working BUT my Photoshop is completely gone from my system (I never messed with it in the first place since I wasn't having any trouble with it.) And the when I tried to click on Illustrator it said "Do you want to begin your trial?" Huh?
    I have had a subscription since 2012, why on earth would it suddenly think that I no longer should have access to these programs? If I log on to my Adobe account it shows my subscription and that it's up to date (last payment was April 5, 2015). The versions I was using were the CS versions that I had downloaded directly from Adobe and when I used to have any trouble or when I got a different computer I could just log into my account and then redownload them. They are no longer showing under my products, so I can't figure out what on earth is going on. The website has changed since the last time I downloaded them, so that partly could be me, but I thought they would at least be showing up under products. I contacted Adobe support and the first person I talked to on chat said "this is clearly a technical issue I am transferring you to someone better suited for this," but that's all he said. And I haven't heard from anyone since so I thought I'd make a topic and see if anyone else out there has had a similar problem.

    The versions I am using are the CS6 versions.*

    I rented Trouble with the Curve and haven't it yet and I when I went to watch the movie it tells me the file can not be found -  please help

    Yes, thank you.  My apologies, I was typing one handed and did not add that. 
    Anyway, I have tried deleting the cache, deleting my pics and then re-syncing, etc. and nothing is working This is very frustrating, as I had no problems up until about 2 weeks ago, and now all of a sudden, I have this issue......UGH!

  • Having trouble with wav files and sample rates

    Hi ,I am having trouble with wav files and sample rates .I have been sent multiple projects on wav as the main instrumental ; I wish to record in 48.000kHz .Now comes the problem.When I try to change the project to 48k It seems to pitch up the track.I can't have them send the logic/project file as most have outboard synths,different plug ins etc.This particular case the producer has recorded the synth task in 41.000 kHz .My successful outcome would be to be able t create a project file in 48 kHz .And NOT pitch up whne I add the instrumenta wav file .Any help would be gratefully recieved,this is my first post so any mistakes I may have made go easy 

    You'll have to convert the actual synth audio file file that the producer gave you to 48kHz. You can do this in the audio Bin in Logic.

  • I'm having trouble with iTunes synching and accessing the iTunes store.

    I'm having trouble with iTunes synching and accessing the iTunes store.   When synching, the process tops at the back up stage, freezes and I can't close the iTunes window, need to ctrl alt del.   When trying to access the store, the progress bar stops halfway.   I've googled heaps and tried most of the standard answers - unistall, reinstall, etc, now looking for some help please.
    This has only started a few weeks back, after working smoothly for the 2 years of owning the iPhone 3gs.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated, it's getting realy frustrating.
    Cheers for now,

  • Trouble with internal keyboard and touchpad

    Hi,
    Yesterday I just out of nowhere started having some trouble with my keyboard and touchpad on my MacBook Air.
    The problem displayed itself on various ways. One thing was that I couldn't press regulary with the touchpad. When I was pressing one time, it acted like a pressed with two fingers. When I tried to type in my password on the administrator page, some of the keys didn't work at all and some started to act weird. For example when I was pressing the letter B, the "bar" which displayes where you are in the text (don't know the word in English) went backwards, and when I pressed the letter F it went forward. This seemes so weird and also gives me a hope that it might be some setting failure though B stands for backwards and F stands for forward.
    I could log in to the guestpage where I tried to write in "notes". In notes, no letters at all was working, only numbers. When I tried to shut the computer down from the apple symbol I was asked to write administrator name and password. When I tried to mark the name to write it, there wasn't a "bar" but a cross, but on the other hand did it work to write in the password field. But of course not B and F..
    Usualy I'd just press the on/off botton until the computer lockdown, unfortunately the botton doesn't work. So the only thing I could do was to let the battery die and hope that it would start when I recharged it and pressed start, this didn't go as well as I hoped, so now I'm stuck with a dead macbook air.
    Any ideas of what could be the problem or/and any solutions what might do the trick?
    Extremly greatful for any answers

    Yes you need to use a wired keyboard.

  • Trouble with LaCie disk and time machine

    HI everyone,
    I've been having trouble with using time machine to back-up to my 1 TB LaCie drive (purchased 5/12, unfornuately I was dumb and didn't register the drive and no longer have the box with the serial number and there is no serial number on my drive. The only problem I had up until the end of August was that every so often the LaCie drive (using my FW 800 port) would unmount after waking up from sleep.
    The end of August the drive unmounted for no reason while I was on the computer doing a task. Could not get the LaCie drive remounted (rebooting, etc. etc.) To make a long story short, ended up calling apple care who took me through resetting my SMC and PRAM to no avail. Was booted to higher level of support who walked me through trying to repair my drive using the disk utiltiy. When that didn't work, she walked me through erasing and reformatting the LaCie drive and starting a new time machine back-up. Every thing ok until about ten days ago.
    Last week, when I woke my iMac up from sleep, I got an error saying that the disk was not ejected properly and I could not mount the drive. Restarting did nothing, the disk did not  mount. Shutting down and rebooting seemed to solve the problem and the disk was mounted. Every so often I've had the problem with the disk unmounting after waking up from sleep before. So, I changed my energy sleep preferences. At the end of the day when I am done, I'd unmount the LaCie drive before putting the Mac to sleep using the apple menu.
    Today I came in to start my day, plugged the drive in and it would not mount. Tried rebooting nothing. Went into the disk utility, at first the LaCie drive passed the disk verify (6:26:25 and 6:26:38). Then I went into repair disk on the indented drive at 6:27:13, I wasn't sure what it is was doing, thinking that it had hung, I stopped the repair at 6:27:24. Exited disk utility, and the LaCie drive mounted. But I was getting a read only error when I tried to back-up using time machine. So, I went back into disk utility at 6:27:35, when I verified the disk (indented disk), I got an error saying the disk need to be repaired. After several minutes the disk could not be repaired. So, I erased and reformatted the drive. Ran a time machine back-up and it seemed to back-up everything on my hard drive. Just ran another verify disk and it passed.
    Is the drive failing? Have some other back-ups of my documents, my address book, iCal and am going to make a backup of some of my pref files and important e-mail files and am going to do some more back-ups after I am done.
    Have reached out to the women at apple care whom I talked to last August, but don't expect to hear back from her for at least 24 hours.
    Here is my disk utility log

    I just got a call back from the upper level support person at apple care who had been advising me on my trouble with time machine and my LaCie 1 TB FWD. I had sent her much of the same verbiage as I posted here. As some of you have probably figured out, the verdict is that the drive is probably failing. She says this because I have had to do two erase and reformats. She thought that the intermitant problem that I have had with the drive unmounting when my iMac wakes from sleep could be related to the drive failing.
    In the meantime I have a secondary back-up (not using time machine) and the LaCie  1 TB FWD is working for the moment.
    Thanks to all who read all my verbiage.
    And in the meantime, I've learned something. I marked this question as solved. But I'm open to other things to try.

  • TS3999 Help! Trouble with my calendar and icloud.

    I am having trouble with my calendar and icloud.
    Customers send me meeting invites and I can accept them no problem. But if they subsequently change the date or time I get an error message:
    Access to “appointment name” in “Home” in account “iCloud” is not permitted.
    The server responded:
    “403”
    to operation CalDAVWriteEntityQueueableOperation
    sometimes the time changes in my calendar, sometimes it doesn't, and my customers keep getting messages back from icloud 'accepting' the original date, not the changed date!!
    It is driving me an my clients crazy!  any help would be appreciated.

    I had a problem specific to the Calendar on web-based Firefox (PC) Was asked for a separate sign-in I'd never seen before which didn't work. I resolved this by signing out, signing in again.

  • Problems setting up Airport Extreme with RCA Modem

    Can't seem to get wireless working with my Airport Extreme. I have an RCA Modem (DHG535-2) through Comcast. I can get internet through Airport via ethernet, but only when the AEBS is in "Bridge" mode. I have tried unplugging, rebooting, etc., but nothing. The most common error message I'm getting is that the AEBS doesn't have a valid IP address. I'm pretty sure I should be selecting Use DHCP, but I'm not sure whether I need Share IP address, Distribute or Bridge. Also, when I connect via the ethernet, it looks like the IP address changes every time I reset the connection. Is this normal? I don't believe I have a unique IP address or else Comcast probably would have told me.
    I've also tried resetting the AEBS to no avail. The modem does not have a typical reset button, but rather one called "REBOOT EMTA", which has kept me away from pushing it, ha! I'm very disappointed with the AEBS. I hardly ever have issues with Apple products. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Would hate to have to replace the Airport with my old blue Linksys router.

    I'm not at home so I can't look at my own setup, but for my cable modem, I also have an RCA Modem (about two years old). I have it set to just get the IP address automatically, which it did the first time I plug in an Airport Express to it. I just upgraded to a Time Capsule, and all I had to do was turn the modem off and on, and it automatically works.
    I would start over and try again.
    Also, to reset my Airport Express to factory settings, it has a small button on the bottom that I just hit (with a tip of a pen) for five seconds and it resets. I would think the AEBS has something like that?
    Good luck!

  • Trouble with bridge mode and port forwarding

    I have a Westell Model 6100F DSL modem in bridge mode into my network and I'm having trouble forwarding ports. Is there any general guidance available to do this. I have set many of my friends networks up to allow port forwarding but all have been on other service providers, mainly cable. (my experience) My network is the only one I have had trouble with.
    Basically, my question is, while in bridge mode, does the modem forward all incoming traffic to my NAT router or do I need to apply special port forwarding settings in the modem to allow this?
    If bridge mode is the reason I cannot forward the ports, can someone explain how to set the WEstell 6100F back to factory defaults so I can start over. 
    Any other suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.
    Paul

    If bridge mode is set up correctly, your router should be holding the Public IP address (basically not something that is a 192.168 address) as shown at http://www.whatismyip.com/ and compared against what IP your router has.
    If your router has the public IP, all problems lie with either your router or your PC's firewall and configuration. I'd check out portforward.com for some guides on forwarding ports for your router or poarticular application if you need some additional help.

  • Cable modem and WRT54G

    I had to change my cable modem.  After replacing the modem, the WRT54G seems to connect but
    fails to obtain an IP address.  When I connect a computer directly to the modem I have no problem
    connecting to DHCP.  What am I doing wrong?

    Never mind.  Went back and read the very helpful general instructions.
    I think this MAC cloning issue is new, previously I had everything
    working with MAC cloning disabled. 
    Be that as it may, following instructions fixed it, thanks for having those
    up there and sorry for cluttering up the forum.  If there were a way to delete
    a post I would..
