Connecting NH1005 Hub to WRT54g Router

Hello, I am trying to add a hub to my existing (working) router setup. The basic setup will be like:
cable modem -> Router Internet port  -> Router LAN Port 1 -> HUB UPlink port -> HUB Port 1 ->Computer 1
                                                                                                                   -> HUB Port 2 ->Computer2
                                                      -> Router LAN Port 2 -> VOIP Router -> Phone
                                                      -> Router LAN port 3 -> Computer 3
Computer 1 is in another part of the house from the physical router location and has been working fine with no hub involved via a long ethernet cable run. I now want to add computer 2 to the same room as computer one by adding the hub. This room is on the other side of the house and I didn't want to add another long run of ethernet cable just to hook it up - which is why I borrowed the hub.
Router is WRT54G V2, running tomato firmware
Hub is NH1005 v2.0
VOIP router is RTP300
It all works fine without the hub but when I add the hun computer 1 and 2 have "limited connectivity". Running windows Xp and windows 7 on the boxes.
Is there some router settings or netowrk cards settings I need to change? Thanks
Mike

You do not have to adjust any settings on your router as your Network is functional...
It seems to be the Hub, power down the hub, connect the Router LAN Port 1 -> HUB Port #1, Connect both the computer's to the HUB on Port #2 and Port #3, Connect the Poer Cable to the HUB, see if both computer's can access the Internet...

  • Cannot connect Mac ibook to WRT54G router

    I have a WRT54G router connected to my desktop. My Dell laptop connects without any problems. Now I am also trying to connect a Mac ibook to the same router. The Airport reads the connection, but it does not accept any passwords. The dropdown of connection options includes Personal WPA, Personal WPA2, Enterprise WPA, and others, but none of them accept my password. I have read some threads about downgrading, but I am concerned that if I make changes to adapt for the Mac, I might lose my Dell connectivity.

    Use Firefox or Internet Explorer. Open http://192.168.1.1/ (if you have not changed the LAN IP address of the WRT54G), enter your password (default "admin" ) and you should see the web interface of the router. Click on Wireless. Post the current settings you have there. Then click on Wireless Security and also post the current settings you find there. That will tell us how you have set up the wireless on the router and then we'll see how you correctly set up the iBook for this.

  • WRT54G Router - Internet connection issues using the Ipod touch

    Ok, first - here is my setup. I've got the router hooked into the modem, with the desktop computer hooked directly into the router.  I've got my laptop running off wireless internet, and I've got an ethernet cable connecting through my laptop to an xbox for xbox live connection.  I recently just got an iPod touch, and I've come to realize that whenever I'm on the iPod, it messes with the internet on the desktop computer and on the xbox, but not the laptop really.. it makes the internet really slow, or sometimes it doesn't work at all, especially on the xbox.  Is there anything I can change to make these all work at the same time?  Or is this too many connections or what? Please help. thanx.
    (running windows vista home premium, WRT54G router, pretty much beginner status, though I can follow directions easily : ] )
    Also, the internet always works on the ipod, it seems as though the ipod is 'taking over' the internet.. it doesn't lose it while in the area, yet the other computers and xbox does at times.. 
    Message Edited by jmaxey0122 on 12-16-2009 05:27 AM

    You might be facing the problem, because the Ipod and your Desktop computer must be having the same IP address thats the reason whenever your IPod is connected to your Network, your Desktop must be getting disconnected. Check the IP address of your IPOD and of your Desktop Computer.
    First thing which you need to check, if the Physical connections are done properly. Connect the Modem to the Internet Port of the Linksys Router and then Connect the computer to the LAN Port No.1. On your Desktop computer login to the setup page of your Router and click on the Status tab and check "Internet IP address" 
    If required you can Re-Set your Router and Re-configure all the settings on your Router from the scratch. 

  • WRT54G ROUTER CONNECTION PROBLEM

    I have a WRT54g router.
    Everything works great for a period of time even after turning the computer, internet modem and router on and off several times.
    Then I turn everything on and the computer does not connect to the internet.
    It go and connect the computer directly to the internet modem and I have internet access.
    To be able to use the router again I have to reset the modem and input all the settings which I do with the setup disk.
    I have been using channel six in case this makes any difference.
    Any help will be appreciated. 

    connection DMS: HSD1.fl.comcast.net
    IP address          :192.168.1.100
    subnet mask      :255.255.255.0

    It does not connect to the internet now but if I reset in the back of the modem and reload the setting via the original CD that came with the unit it starts to connect. Eventually one of the times that I power up it stops connecting to the internet although it still ping's out.
    I also tried to load the update of the newer solfware but it does the same with or without the update.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Issues connecting multiple machines wirelessly to WRT54G router

    I have a WRT54G router and have one wired desktop, two laptops that connect fine and then I have a netbook and another desktop with wireless adapter I am having issues with connecting.  I used the wizard and set each machine up with the downloaded executable, it says it works but when I try to connect I get unable to connect to wireless network message.  ANy ideas? Any help is greatly appreciated

    You have one computer connected with the cable and 2 wireless computers working fine. That means the router is working fine.
    I think you should check the wireless settings of the router first.
    You have one computer connected to the router with the Ethernet cable. Open the setup page of the router and go to Wireless tab. Check the wireless network name. Go to wireless security sub tab. Check the wireless security mode and make sure that you have the correct password of your wireless network. Go to Wireless MAC address filter sub tab and make sure that it is disabled.
    Try to connect to the wireless network again and see if that works.

  • WRT54G Router cannot connect to internet

    I have Earthlink DSL and am trying to connect to the internet via the WRT54G from my Dell desktop. (Can connect to internet directly through modem just fine.)Have ethernet cable connected to DSL modem and router internet port. Have other cable connected to ethernet desktop port and port1 on router. Setup CD fails on "checking internet connection."
    Per tblshooting docs:
    Have changed IP to 192.168.2.1
    Have changed to PPPOE, with ISP [email protected] and password.
    Powered off modem, router, PC. Restarted.
    Try to connect to internet--Earthlink dial-up pop-up comes up because there's no DSL connection.
    Help.

    On top of IE.... go to tools... internet options... then connections... then check the box that says never dial a connection.....
    Go back to default 1st on the router. Start from scratch by pressing the reset button of the router for 20-30 seconds , then power down router for 10 seconds and power it back up.
    The go back to the router interface (192.1681.1) and leave it as just Obtain IP Automatically or Automatic Configuration DHCP... then go to MAC Address Clone.. enable... clone... save settings... then go to the status page and tell us what is the Internet IP Address value that you see...

  • Not able to connect my Iphone to my WRT54GS router with security enabled

    As the subject line states, I'm not able to connect my Iphone to my WRT54GS router when the security is enabled. When ever I attempt to connect to my network with my phone it always tells me the password is incorrect. I have double checked the password in the easylink advisor and it matches up. I have also tried both WPA and WEP with the same result, I know that the wireless is working on the router as I turned the security off and was able to connect to it. I updated the firmware this evening also with no changes. If anyone could help me with this issue it would be much appreciated.

    First of all, in the router, give your network a unique SSID. Do not use "linksys". If you are using "linksys" you may be trying to connect to your neighbor's router. Also, in the router, set "SSID Broadcast" to "enabled". This will help your iPhone find and lock on to your router's signal.
    To connect using WEP, enter WEP "key 1"  (found in the router)  into the iPhone, not the WEP password or passphrase.
    To connect using WPA, make sure that there is not an encryption nomenclature problem.  For example, WPA is not the same as WPA with AES.  Please note the following:
    WPA    =   PSK    =   WPA with TKIP  =  WPA   personal
    WPA2  =   PSK2  =   WPA with AES   =  WPA2 personal
    I am not certain, but your iPhone probably does just ordinary WPA  (not WPA with AES).  Assuming that this is correct, then the router should be set to:
    "WPA personal"  with  "TKIP"
    Also, in the iPhone, be sure to delete the entry for your unsecured connection to your router, before you try to input info regarding the secured connection to the router.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can access internet when connected w/ethernet cables in router, but WRT54G says it can't connect

    I have my router, modem, and computer all set up correctly. I can access the internet in this setup but with only the computer that is connected with the ethernet cord to the router. Yet, my WRT54G router can't connect to the internet in the Linksys easy setup nor through the http:192.168.1.1 method.
    When I changed the internet connection type to PPPoE, my modem was unable to access the internet. I also changed the IP to 192.168.2.1 but that didn't help. I have performed several power cycles. I have upgraded the firmware.
    I changed the internet connection type back to DHCP, so I am able to come on this website, but I can't set up the wireless since the router says it can't connect to the internet. Please help!

    Start it from scratch...Reset your router and re-configure it...
    Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...
    Also make sure that your computer is set to obtain IP automatically, disable any firewalls, security softwares on the computer before trying to access the setup page.
    If your Internet Service Providor is Cable follow this
    If your Internet Service Providor is DSL follow this
    To change the Wireless Settings click here and Enable Wireless Security
    Now see if you can locate your wireless network on your wireless computer and attempt to connect...

  • No Internet when connected to wrt54g router

    I've seen that I'm not the only person to have this problem, unfortunately it doesn't appear that the question is answered satisfactorily in the forum. My laptop was connecting fine to an ambient wireless network in my apt building (yes I had wired internet but the computer would say "Wireless Connection Found!" or somesuch, so I know it was connecting to something). Eventually someone either lost the connection or secured it, so I lived with the wired connection for a while. Then a friend of mine gave me the WRT54G router & wished me luck. I have had nothing but trouble with this router - my computer says that it is connected to the router, I can even use the browser utility to do things like upgrade the firmware and change my settings. My computer works FINE with the wired connection, but the minute I try to route it through the wireless router, Internet is history. I have Verizon DSL, I would love to connect to my service wirelessly so I can listen to internet radio in other rooms without creating a massive safety hazard by stringing Ethernet cable through my entire house. I've tried everything that I could find online, including downloading a network diagnostics tool, but nothing is helping. I've done everything your site says, everything in the user guide, even things friends suggested to me. No luck. Any ideas? I'm almost ready to throw the router into traffic!

    Thanks for the links, but these are both things I've looked into, and don't understand. I'm something of a newb when it comes to technical stuff on computers - I can use them, and screw around successfully with some of the system stuff, but unless someone explains to me what each odd abbreviation does, I'm lost. I've done the ipconfig /all in command prompt and come up with a bunch of stuff that I'm not sure will help me, I've played around in the router's actual configuration mode, it connects to my computer, and has the Internet light on, just my computer won't go online with the wireless router connected (with or without wires attached). It's like there's a little wall inside the router that won't connect my computer to the DSL modem. DSL modem works fine - all cables work fine, internet works without the wireless router in place. There's just something not connecting somewhere, and I don't know what. Everything externally is perfect. Everything internally SHOULD be perfect (everything's supposed to be automatically configured, right? Usually?). It's just not working.

  • WRT54GS router to WET54G bridge question, bridge connect to a wired router?

    Hello Everyone,
    I have a Wireless-G LAN set up using a WRT54GS router.  The existing wireless devices on the LAN are 2 PCs, a TiVo unit (using the TiVo wireless adapter), and 2 WET54G wireless bridges.  One bridge connects by ethernet wire to a LAN printer.  The other bridge connects by ethernet wire to a Sony BDP-S550 Blu-Ray player.
    The security is WPA2-AES.  so far all of that works OK, believe it or not, though I grew a lot older making it happen.
    Now here's what I'd like to do: I'd like to add another wired LAN device where the second WET54G bridge connects to the Blu-Ray player.  The bridge only has one ethernet wire connection, so I have to come up with some other way to get the two devices connected to the wireless LAN.
    I have two other LinkSys devices kicking around here that I can use.  One is a BEFSR41 wired Router.  The other is a WAP54G wireless Access Point.   If I can use one or both of those somehow, I won't have to buy another device.  That's the agenda so far.
    Right now it looks like this:
    WRT54GS Router wireless to WET54G Bridge wire to WAN input of BEFSR41 Router wires to the two LAN devices.
    I'm having trouble making this work, assuming it can even be done.  Can I get this config to work, or do I have to add the Access Point where the bridge is now, or.... ?
    Thanks for your time,
    Big Al Mintaka
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You already have a network working with your existing devices. What you are trying to include in your network is possible and can be done. Instead of connecting the cable from the WET54G to the WAN port on the router, connect the cable the LAN port on the router. Disable the DHCP  and change the lan ip in the range of your existing network. It should work.

  • Having issues with WRT54GS router acquiring network address after wireless connection.

    I've been experiencing problems acquiring a network address after making a wireless connection with the WRT54GS wireless router. I have a Comcast cable modem connected to the internet port of the router and after configuring the SSID and the 64 bit WEP key, I can connect to my router's SSID, but since I can't get an IP address, never connect to the Internet. I've already cloned the laptop's mac address to no avail. Even after configuring a static IP address, subnet mask and default gateway, still cannot connect. I can Ping and Traceroute from the router but not the PC. I can ping localhost and host IP address from the laptop but not the default gateway. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, SJ

    Connect the computer to the router with the Ethernet cable.
    Try to access the internet when you connect the computer to the router with the Ethernet cable.
    Open the setup page of the router and go to Status page. Check the Internet IP address on the status page of the router.
    If you are able to access the Internet with the Wired connection to the router then try to create a new wireless network on your router.
    Open the setup page of the router and go to Wireless tab. Change the wireless network name SSID and change the channel to 11. Save the settings. Go to Wireless security sub tab and check the wireless security settings. Click on Wireless MAC filter sub tab and make sure that it is disabled. Click on Advanced wireless settings sub tab. Change the Beacon Interval to 75, RTS and fragmentation threshold to 2304. Save the settings.
    Try to connect to the new wireless network and see if that works.
    How many wired and wireless computers do you have in the network?

  • Problem connecting to same game server, WRT54G router.

    Hello I have a WRT54G router, me and my brother cannot play on the same game server on Team Fortress 2. It kicks the person already in the server when the other person joins and gives a connection issue. We think the game server cannot take the same IP twice in the same server.
    We checked IPs on ipchicken.com and we're sure the router giving us the same IP is the problem. If it matters we're connected with ethernet cords, not wirelessly. Is there any way to change the IP addresses or fix this?
    Thanks, Matt

    The game server will only see the single IP address assigned to the modem or router by your ISP, and won't see the individual computer's locally assigned addresses.
    So, unfortunately I see no way around this without subscribing to a separate internet connection with your ISP.
