Connecting my linksys

I have the linksys model # WRT54G, now my question is.
How do I go about setting this up with a USB port connection.
Time Warner sent me an idiot that hooked me up that way.
So I have no ethernet connection on my cable modem.
I was hoping there was a way to get around this without calling Time Warner for help yet. I do have the installation CD for the modem, but I do not want to go that way yet.
I'm afraid I might screw it up more.

No Linksys router do not have any USB port on it ..... the only option to connect to router is using Ethernet connection .....

  • Can only connect to Linksys E4200 when very close but PCs can connect at 50 feet. What's the solution?

    Can only connect to Linksys E4200 when very close but PCs can connect at 50 feet. What's the solution?

    If you're technically comfortable in getting to your Linksys settings - try changing the network mode or channel in your router's settings.
    I still use my old Linksys router and when it's set to the default channel, which is 7, my Macbook Pro and Macbook Air sometimes have issues - changed the channel to 9 and have had no issues since.
    Maybe it might work for you.
    In any event - screenshots below are for your E4200 and play with those settings and see if any of the changes you've made improves how your Macbook connects.  Before you change any settings, just remember what the old settings are in case you need to go back to your old settings.
    Good luck.

  • Just connected a Linksys plw400 extender to my wifi network & IPad 2 looses Wifi connection

    Just connected a linksys plw400 to my wifi network and now my ipad2 can see the network but cannot connect.  When I disconnect the linksys plw400 my IPad2 will connect albeit a weak signal which is why I bought the extender which works fine with my Dell laptop and Galaxy S3 can anyone help me with this issue?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Airport express 802.11b doesn't connect to Linksys E3000

    airport express 802.11b doesn't connect to Linksys E3000
    Linksys told tha de the device does not support WPA security
    BUT
    the device has capability to WPA and it was working on Linksys WRT 310n v2
    is out there an solution?

    If you have tried numerous default resets, then the Express is defective. Normally, it displays a solid amber light...or no light.... when an internal component fails, but I've seen the solid green as well.
    If it's in warranty, Apple will replace the device. 
    If it's not....and you want to try a real longshot....carefully saw open the case along the center seam to open up the device.  You might get really lucky and find something obvious like a connector that has come loose, or something similar.

  • ASA 5505 Connected To Linksys Router

    Hello, I have a cable modem internet connection and my cable modem is connected to an ASA 5505.  The inside interface of the ASA has an IP address of 192.168.2.2 and is connected to a Linksys router's internet port which has an IP address of 192.168.2.1.  The Linksys router then has a local area network of 192.168.1.0 and all my clients are on that network.  Everything is working fine except in my ASA logs all the traffic shows up as the router's external address which is 192.168.2.1.  I would like to see the 192.168.1.x address of the clients in the ASA firewall.  I've tried making some changes to the Linksys router but that hasn't resolved it.  Is there any changes I can make on the ASA to get this to work?   Below is some of the config:

    Dave
    The Linksys doing NAT is the reason why the ASA sees all the traffic as having source address as 192.168.2.1. The only way for the ASA to see the original 192.168.1.x address is to change the Linksys to not do NAT.
    One thing that I notice is that there is not a route statement in what you posted for the 192.168.1.0 network. It is not clear whether the route does exist and you did not post it or whether the route does not exist. But if it does not exist it would certainly be a reason why you lose Internet connectivity when you change the Linksys to not perform NAT. (the ASA would have no knowledge of how to forward to the network and would drop all the traffic). Try adding the route to the ASA and changing the Linksys to not perform NAT and let us know if it works.

  • Intel MacBook Connecting to Linksys Router

    Hey Discussions,
    I'm getting ready to purchase a MacBook. Currently, my setup is a G4 Mac mini that is wirelessly connected to a Belkin repeater (which is repeating the signal of a Linksys router). I've heard rumblings that Linksys routers are being funny with the new Intel processors. Now, since I do have that repeater and since the repeater creates a new wireless network in addition to the weaker Linksys one in my present location, would I have any problems getting the MacBook to connect to either of the wireless networks? This sounds like a problem that will have to be solved by experience.
    Thanks!
    -Mateo

    Hmmm...I hope it will be simple. But I don't know if the fact that I have that repeater creating an entirely new network will be to my advantage or disadvantage. I guess we'll find that out on Friday!

  • Airport Extreme: How to connect a Linksys VOIP device via ethernet

    Hi there!
    I am trying to connect Linksys PAP2T device via ethernet to my Aiport Extreme. It gets an address assigned 10.0.1.2 but when I access the device, I am not able to connect to internet. Do I need to key in my network password anywhere?

    Okay, so to answer my own question after considerable sleuthing . . . for anyone else trying to do this:
    Connect your computer to the bridge using an ethernet cable, then open a browser and enter the following address: http://169.254.1.250
    This will take you to a login page: leave the username field blank, enter "admin" in the password.
    You will see the Cisco setup page. I selected manual setup and entered the name of my network and password. I got a progress bar and finally the wireless network light on the bridge started flickering.

  • How to connect a Linksys WES610N Bridge to an Airport Express network

    I'm surprised I haven't been able to find an answer to this question anywhere online. I haven't even found anyone asking this question!???
    I'm trying to connect a Cisco Linksys WES610N Entertainment Bridge to my Airport Express wireless network. This will allow me to plug my blu-ray player into the bridge and go online for Netflix. (My TV does not have an online option, unfortunately.)
    The setup instructions indicate to press the Wi-Fi Protected Setup button on my router before pressing the same on the bridge. Of course, Airport Express (assuming that's my router) does not have such a button. I tried turning off security to my network using Airport Utility and trying to connect that way, without success.
    Some help documents from Cisco suggest connecting both the bridge and my computer to a router using ethernet cables and accessing setup through a web-based interface, but again, Airport Express has only one ethernet port, so that's not an option.
    Cisco has very little Mac support :-(
    Hoping the Apple community can help me.

  • IMac will not get a good connection to Linksys WRT54GX4

    I've seen similar reports as this, but nothing exactly like it, so I'm not sure if its the same problem or unrelated. I've got this Early 2006 20" Intel iMac. It will NOT connect correctly to my Linksys WRT54GX4 SRX400 Linksys router. It seems to work fine for a bit, but then I the connection deteriorates. I have a Macbook that has absolutely no problem.
    The iMac connects to the network about 50 percent of the time. Sometimes it just says there's an error. When it does connect it works fine for a bit. The signal strength is great, and I can stream movies in iTunes to my Macbook. I don't know what causes it, but 15 minutes later or so, the signal strength is only showing 2 bars (the router is literally 20 feet away with no obstruction), and iTunes sharing of movies no longer works. This is crucial to my setup in my house, as I'm using the macbook as a faux AppleTV to watch movies on my TV that are stored on my iMac.
    What's odd is that the macbook works perfectly from even further distances, as well as some of my roommates Windows PCs. And they work indefinitely. I noticed in the system profiler that the iMac and the Macbook have different Airport Card information. The iMac says it has Broadcom firmware, the Macbook just lists a version number.
    Is Apple working on patching this?
    If not, would I be able to get Apple to install a newer Airport Card in my iMac?

    Welcome to Discussions, MikeCP66!
    You ask "Is Apple working on patching this?" to which the answer is that the patch has been successfully completed. It is AirPort Extreme Update 2007-002 plus the 10.4.9 Update, and this appears to have corrected the wireless issues of most iMac users, both Core Duo and Core 2 Duo.
    I'm assuming that along with your up-to-date OS 10.4.9, you also are up to date with iMac firmware (Boot ROM Version in System Profiler), SMC firmware (SMC Version), and with AirPort Extreme Update 2007-002 recently installed.
    I'm also assuming your Linksys firmware has been verified to be up to date. If you're uncertain about what I'm referring to in any of this, please ask. The Linksys and both Macs must all be set for using the exact same type of encryption, of course with the exact same network name and password.
    If all the above is ok, power down your computers. Power down and disconnect your Linksys. After a minute, reconnect your Linksys and power it back up. Power your Macs back up and turn on AirPort in both, using the menu bar icons.
    Open the iMac's Network panel of System Preferences. Change the "Show:" selector from "Network Status" to "AirPort" and also click "AirPort" in the menu bar of that pane.
    Set the "By default, join:" selector to "Preferred networks" and delete ALL networks from the list. Click the "Apply Now" button at the bottom right, after which no name should appear in that list.
    Click the "Options..." button, set the "If no preferred networks are found:" selector to "Keep looking for recent networks" and uncheck the box "Automatically add new networks to the preferred networks list."
    Click the blue "OK" button, again click the "Apply Now" button, and close System Preferences. Restart the iMac. AirPort will still be turned on, it will see your correct network name, although it will not be connected to any network.
    Open System Preferences to the Network panel and go to "Show: AirPort" and again to the "AirPort" pane. Click the little + box and in the drop-down box select your network's method of "Wireless Security" followed by entering the network name and password.
    Click the blue "OK" button, then the "Apply Now" button at the bottom right.
    Your iMac's AirPort icon should shortly darken, indicating a connection, and checking it AirPort should be connected to your network, and should stay connected the same as the MacBook's does.
    If not, until proven otherwise, some speculation might be suggested to Apple that the AirPort Extreme card within the iMac is not properly connected.

  • How to connect to Linksys Wireless Print Server (WPS54GU2) from WIndows 7

    I tried the Print Server Utility that was loaded from the WPS54GU2 user install disk. Ended up with an AddPort error.
    Went ahead and created local printer for printer I was trying to get to (Epson Color Stylus 400). Did a "Printer Properties" on the printer after it is was created and clicked on the "Port" tab. Clicked on the "Add Port" button and selected "Standard TCP/IP Port" from list. Clicked on "New Port" . Wizard came up and clicked "Next" on this screen. I typed in the IP address of my Print Server (with no Port Name) and let it search for a while and it eventually failed. A screen came up requesting "additional port information" so I clicked on the "Custom" button and then clicked on the"Settings" button. Here I typed in the correct port name (which in my case was like LKxxxxxx where the x's are numerics). The IP address is already filed in. I checked the LPR button and made up a Queue Name and typed it into the Queue Name text box.
    After clicking OK I tried printing to the printer and everything seemed to work correctly.

    I have the same issue as I have a new Windows 7 machine that is hardwired to my Linksys WPS54G.  This is my main office PC and I have other computers throughout the house that are connected wirelessly to the WPS54G.  I've tried to create a new port for printing based on the posts from other users but it still won't work.  I've run the Linksys configuration and my PC sees the printer server.  Am I missing a step?
    Here is what I've done
    Go to ports
    Add new port
    Standard TCP/IP Port 
    Click new port (Wizard comes up)
    Enter printer name and IP address ( I enter my IP address for the Print Server 192.168.1.x)- Port name is same as IP Address (does this matter?)
    Go to custom settings and set for LPR with Queue name of LP1 (or should it be L1?)
    LPR Byte count box checked 
    Click next and finish
    Do I need to restart my computer?
    What am I missing
    Thank you

  • Airport will not connect to Linksys router after iDisk sync force quit

    Hi,
    Hoping someone can help me here, kinda at my wits end.
    A week ago I was video ichatting and restarted my MacBook because the video feed was sluggish. I thought a restart would help.
    Unknown to me was that my iDisk was syncing. I recieved an warning dialogue box and was given the option of canceling the restart or force quitting the iDisk sync. I choose to force quit and proceed with the restart. After choosing to continue with the force quit I received an error message, it had the phrase "Mirror Agent" in it, and then my MacPro restarted.
    Since that first restart, I have not been able to connect, using Airport, to my Linksys Wireless router (model # WRT54 GX4).
    This is where it gets strange. Airport sees the router, displays a signal strength, shows up on my list of perfered networks...it displays all of the signs of a fully connected router but when I try to access the web, check mail or use iChat I cannot because Safari, Mail and iChat tell me that I am not connected to the internet.
    When I ran the network dianogistic tool, it first asked me why I would want to run it because it thought I was already connected. After running the tool it still came back with the same results, I was connect to the internet. But I still couldn't launch Safari, it just hung.
    This is where it gets really wierd. My wife, she's on a HP, can connect, using her built-in wireless card. Even after changing the Firmware on the Linksys router, her pc can still connect.
    And here's the icing on the cake. There are some unprotected wireless networks on my street. I can connected to those but not my own! Something has to be blocking the signal between my AirPort card and the Linksys router. Does that make sense?
    And if there is one saving grace to all of this, I still can connect to the web using the built-in Ethernet.
    Here's what I have tried:
    Removed Perfered Network, restarted MAC, added network back, still no connectivity.
    Removed security (was using WPA/WPA2) from the router still no connectivity.
    Removed Airport Keychain, restarted MAC, added router back, still no connectivity.
    Repaired the permissions on my HD, someone at work told me to try that, still no connectivity.
    Updated firmware to Linksys router to version 1.00.20, no connectivity.
    Rebooted Linksys router and cable modem, still no connectivity.
    Thank you to all in advance for reading my rambling note and forgiving my poor spelling (it is way past my bedtime and the keys are really blurry). I am still very new to Mac's and appreiciate any help that you can provide.
    Cheers,

  • 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.

  • Unable to access wireless connection with linksys rooter WRT54GS

    Hi,
    I just installed a wireless rooter Linksys WRT54GS on my connection, The problem I have is being able to access it with my wireless on my laptop.
    I kept getting a message stating "connection unindentified" "access limited". I've done most of what is already suggested on your forum such has turning the power off of my rooter, my modem and such and still nothing. I'm able to access the wireless with my girlfriend Mac Notebook, my playstation 3 and my desktop computer which uses Windows X. First I thought that it my be a problem with my security but even when the connection is unprotected I still get that error. I try to disable the IpV6but that didn'tdo anything either.
    My laptop is a Toshiba Qosmio X300 PQX32C-033019 with Vista and my rooter is a Linksys WRT54GS vers. 6
    Here's my connection log, sorry if it's in French:

  • 24" iMac can't connect with Linksys

    My new 24" iMac connects fine when hard wired to the Linksys BEFW11S4, but cannot truly connect by WAN. The diagnostics say that I am connected to the Internet, but the page (that doesn't come up) says that I'm not connected. The iMac is sitting right next to the router and our Dell laptop connects just fine. Any suggestions?
    I'll try calling Apple in the morning. I'm a little discouraged by the whole PC to Mac process. I don't blame Apple completely, but they are clearly not as ready out of the box as the ads imply.

    richperson,
    I disagree. The most likely explanation for you and
    others having a similar sounding problem is that so
    many are first time Mac users. For one thing, many
    first time Mac users simply do not take seriously the
    "Welcome" setup procedure that appears when they
    first startup their Macs. That setup will largely
    determine whether subsequent operation will be
    trouble free or not.
    Eh,eh, you should as well tell the OP that he's doomed...
    Since the Core 2 Duo is basically the same iMac as
    the prior Core Duo that released just eight months
    ago, it would be highly unlikely that there is
    anything new that must be conquered. If one looks
    across the other Mac discussion areas, it is common
    that wireless networking problems are as persistent
    an issue regardless whether the Mac computer model
    has just been released, or is a five year old model.
    Exactly...
    One thing I do know is that AirPort works basically
    the same in all Macs.
    or doesnt !
    Though I agree with you the OP probably did not configure properly airport authentification, parameters (or forgot to adjust MAC adress on the routeur or...), there ARE issues with wifi up to os 10.4.7. (I know of at least one bug more or less predictable and described it there : http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=618964 . I still hope I'll get some feedback on a bug report I submitted about 10 days ago...)
    We won't know for sure why the OP can't connect wirelessly until he takes the trouble to detail exactly the configuration of the linksys and the steps he took... For all I know it could be an incorrect configuration (the most probable of course), a bug similar as the one I encountered or an hardware failure...
    But it looks like the OP came there to complain and whine, not really for help...

  • Connect to Linksys Cable Gateway via AirPort Extreme Base Station?

    Thank you in advance for any replies.
    I have the following new setup:
    A G3 Blue tower running OS X 10.4.10 is successfully connected to the internet via a Linksys WCG200 Cable Gateway connected to RCN's cable internet service. The WCG200 unit has wireless capacity though it's connected to the G3 tower via ethernet cable.
    A second Mac (G3 iMac DV running OS X 10.4.10) is in another room in the office. I'd like to set it up with internet by wirelessly connecting with the existing WCG200 unit using an Airport Extreme Base Station (AEBS) I've recently acquired. To ensure a smooth process, I reset the AEBS to factory settings and installed the AEBS software (version 4.2) onto the iMac DV. Finally I plugged in the AEBS into the iMac DV using an ethernet cable plugged into the AEBS's WAN port (AirPort Admin Utility advised me to do so).
    That's the hardware configuration. Working out the software and configuration details is proving 'niggly'.
    First, I used the AirPort Setup Assistant to configure the AEBS. I told it to Set up a new Base Station, then to set it up as connecting to the internet using a Cable modem (the top option of two—the second was to set it up with internet through a LAN). I set up the name and passwords for the Base Station and had the utility configure the AEBS accordingly.
    No internet connection occurred. I tried using the Internet Connect utility in the Applications folder, but no button or visible option for connecting via AirPort appeared, as the Setup Guide indicated it should, only a button for a VPN appeared.
    I called Apple and asked whether it was even possible to connect to the internet using the AEBS talking wirelessly to the WCG200 unit. A tech told me it could be done by going into the AirPort Administration Utility, going into Configuration, clicking on the WDS tab and inputting the MAC address for the WCG200 unit, then going into the Airport tab and typing in the channel that the WCG200 is using. Note that the WCG200 unit has 3 MAC addresses listed; one each for “modem MAC address,” “WAN-MAN MAC address,” and “WAN-DATA MAC address”. I used the “modem MAC address.
    The Apple tech added that it might need further tweaking, but that Apple couldn’t provide this tweaking and that I might check various forums if need be.
    I followed the Tech’s advice, at which point the utility informed me that it couldn't use DHCP or NAT with this setup’ and to make sure that the "Distribute IP Addresses" checkbox was deselected under the Internet tab. This I did, but it was already deselected. I told the utility to update the AEBS accordingly, and restarted everything, including the 2 Macs and the WCG200.
    Result:
    No connection.
    Tried it again with the Ethernet plugged into the AEBSs LAN port, still no connection.
    Help! Can’t I get the AEBS to even see the WCG200? I know wireless is properly functioning in the WCG200 because another user with a Windows laptop connects to it wirelessly. The Mac Tech also mentioned that this could be relatively easy with an AirPort Express piece of hardware (Card? Base station?) but that it would be difficult with the Airport Extreme Base Station.
    At this point we’re willing to spend $100 on getting this up. What would be our best option in terms of equipment, or can connectivity be accomplished with what we have?
    Thanks again,
    skyheart

    skyheart, Welcome to the discussion area!
    In theory using WDS would provide what you need.
    In reality the Linksys device is not compatible with Apple's WDS and therefore this will not work.
