Connection through router to air card

I have replaced a crossover cable with a WRT54G router. Before I could connect to the internet on my desktop through the crossover cable and my notebook computer which has a Verizon PC Express Air Card installed.
With the router replacing the cable I can communicate fine between the desktop and notebook except I cannot get internet access on the desktop now.
Is there a way I can do this with this router?
Jeff

Sorry, but this gets more confusing. I repeat my previous question: what exactly is your setup. I don't understand what this PC Express card should be. Is it a normal wireless 802.11b or 11g card? Or is it a 3G kind of thing that connects to your ISP?
If it is the latter, you must connect this card to a computer therefore the computer where it is connected must be setup for internet connection sharing and therefore this computer is your main gateway (router) for your LAN. There is no benefit using the WRT as router in this kind of setup. You set it up as describe in the other post with the computer with the internet connection card (set up for internet connection sharing) as 1st router and the WRT as 2nd router.
Please write exactly what ISP you have. With what device you access the ISP. Where this device is connected to (which ports). And where it goes from there. What you have configured on the computers for networking etc.
Please remember: the WRT is designed as broadband router. It is supposed to have its own internet connection through the internet port. This means the router connects to the internet and no computer in the network. This requires an internet connection where you have a modem with an ethernet jack to which the router can connect. If you don't have this but rather you must use a computer to connect to the internet because your modem/access card does not have a ethernet jack you must set it up differently. The router cannot steer internet traffic then because it does not have its own internet connection. The router can only steer traffic to his own internet connection (on the internet port).

WRT150N v1.1: Can't connect through router, internet light isnt on

Recently there was a thunderstorm last week and it somehow shorted out my cable modem. (It was hooked up to a surge protector and still somehow got damaged..) The router seemed to be fine, however, after having replaced the modem, my desktop can't connect through to the internet nor my laptop on it's wifi. The internet only works when I direclty link the modem to my desktop/laptop.
I've tried unplugging the modem and router for 30 seconds then re-plugginging the modem, waiting for initialization, then booting up the router but i've found no luck in getting it working as it used to.. I searched up past posts, and the "Setting-Up a Linksys Router with Cable Internet Service" doesnt say what to do if the light for internet doesnt turn on.
Another odd thing the router does is that, for some reason, the 3rd port for ethernet is lit up when theres no cable in the port. I checked to see if the light would work in other ports when it was connected and it shows to work fine, just with the additional 3rd port constantly on.
I'm not sure if it helps, but after hooking up the router I pinged it and it responded with:

Anyone know how I can get this router working again?

Hm, i didn't see any change in anything after completing the steps.. I just had my cable/internet provider service technician come over and take a look at it. Basically, he told me the modem is probably fried somewhere and said I should invest in getting a new router. Surge protectors are apparently just a pretty name for "a good way to blow out multiple expensive devices." So now I'm out to get a wrt160N

Connection Through Router Is Not There

I had internet before and everything was fine. I had it connected through my router and it was also fine there, and it connected to my Vista lap top easily. no troubles whatsoever. We recently switched over to a new cable modem because the last one was old. Now, I can connect to the modem just using my computer but when I connect through the router i get a no connection, or limited activity setting, and my laptop will also no connect to the internet either. Do i need to reinstall my router? I do not see why I would need to because I am using the same computer as before, and I did not reboot it entirely or anything... So the same settings should be there. I cannot find my router disc anywhere, because I bought it about 4 years ago. It is a WRT54G

I think my problem is similar. We started out with one desk top computer connecting through Comcast. We bought a second computer moved the first to the up stairs so we bought the WRT54G Ver. 6 wireless router. Both computers worked fine. My husband recently purchased a laptop which is connecting through the router. Now for some reason EVERY night at 9:00 p.m. on the dot neither the lap top or the upstairs computer will connect. The downstairs desktop connected directly to Comcast will connect. There are no issues with it at 9:00. The inability to not connect last for a couple hours but it is every night at 9:00. Any ideas? Thanks.

Connecting through Router

Firstly, I am not a Mac user but my friend is. For some reason (after a trip) she is not able to connect to the internet through the same router she has been connecting with for over 2 years. I fixed a similar situation on my two PCs at home by ipconfig, changing settings, etc., etc. However, I have no idea where to start with the MacPro that she just bought... old one would not connect also. Can someone take me through the steps of insuring she has a gateway, etc. Thanks...

Hi Lyssa...
No luck thus far this morning. It's probably something very simple that I'm just not seeing or maybe even seeing through it all.
Understand please that there is not a connection setup on the new MacBook. I have tried to set up but not an Apple wiz I'm not sure I'm doing it correctly. When I try to open Network Preferences, it will not open.
I have run the XP wizard, unplugged all and reset, checked the NetGear site and the latest Firmware was 2007 which is already installed.
I'm just pulling my little bit of hair right now. I would think that I would need to start on the MacBook and go from there...

Can't connect through router

I've had the same setup for two years, and everything was functioning fine until two days ago, but now I can't establish a wi-fi connection to a laptop or a connection to a desktop through a WRT54G router. I can connect to the network on the laptop, but a red X appears between the router and the internet icons in Network Sharing. When I open a browser on the desktop I receive "Server not found". A direct ethernet cable connection from the modem to both computers works fine.
I have power cycled all devices, I have reset the modem and the router, and I have tried different cables. I have also tried a second WRT54G router, but the same thing happens. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the reply. I initial powered everything down, disconnecting all cables and cords on both routers and the modem. When that didn't work, I went into the modem's configuration page and hit the "Factory Reset" button. I also pressed the reset button on the back of both routers and went in and set it up again with the SSID I used before.
A wired connection from the modem to the router and from the router to my desktop returns a "Server Not Found" message when I open a browser. I think the fact that both a wired connection from the modem to my laptop and from the modem to my desktop works indicate a router issue, but I can't be certain. You mentioned a configuration problem or a wifi issue, can you recommend a setting or place on the router's configuration page where I might be overlooking something? Thanks for the help.

Aiport Extreme cannot establish VPN connection through router must bypass

Hello - I own an Airport Extreme with the latest firmware update. I cannot connect to my work VPN through the Airport Extreme router. If I bypass the router and connect directly to my modem the VPN works fine. My VPN connections also work fine in any other internet hotspot. Any ideas Apple folks? I am using MacPro, and MacBook with bootcamp MacOSX and Windows XP Pro.

My workaround was taking the router back and getting a D-Link router. Had it set up in 10 minutes with the VPN working, and staying connected. I agree, there is something with the firmware on the router. Good luck!

HP Officejet 7000 Wide Format Printer - E809a - losing connection through router

We have an issue getting sustained response from our HP Officejet 7000 Wide Format Printer - E809a which is linked to the wireless network by ethernet cable to a Netgear router. We have tried stripping out the driver software & uninstalling the printer from the register, then re-installing through latest downloads from the HP site. This works, especially if the device is set as the default printer, but within an hour the printer greys out in the device register and the default automatically resets to another printer. Does anyone know why this printer is losing its connection?

Hi , I see by your post that the default printer keeps changing. I would be happy to help you.
Uncheck the SMTP setting in the print drivers, to see if that will help.From Devices and Printers, right click on the printer and left click on Printer Properties, click on the Ports tab, select Configure Port, uncheck SMTP and the printer should show online again. If the issue persists, please take a look at this document. HP Single-Function and Multifunction Printers - 'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the Printer Does Not Print: Windows 7. If you appreciate my efforts, please click the 'Thumbs up' button below. Thank You.

Isn't connecting through router

My Ipod touch has stopped comunicating with my router at home and I don't believe I've changed anything. What can I check?

Thanks for all of your help, BUT, it's still not working. I changed the IP on the B router, as suggested. I changed the channel on the G router to 11. They have different SSIDs. B router connected to one of 4 LAN ports on G router to Internet port on the B..
The Palm will connect to the B router, but the B router isn't getting connected to the internet from the G. When I connect the B router, by itself and take the G completely offline, everything works fine, as it did before I bought the G. I have seen some mention of DHCP settings?
My Norton Security has been giving me these messages, since I installed the G, too:
Event Details:
Actor: C:\PROGRAM FILES\WINDOWS DEFENDER\MSMPENG.EXE (PID=1100)
Target: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\ccLgView.exe

and

So, how do I get the G to allow internet to get to the B, plugged into one of the 4 LAN slots?

Cellular air card

Air card on Imac. Set up & share internet wirelessly with Nintendo Wii.

I have tried to set up without success, connecting my iMac,s air card internet connection with a new Nintendo Wii. I have at one point got the Wii to recognize some connection signal (name of my iMac) but no through connection to internet with air card online.
Unfortunately, I have changed several settings on my iMac in the bluetooth and airport setups so it is not at the same starting point as original.
FYI I have an airport extreme also, which has never been utilized but is a recognized network on my MAC.

Your AirPort Extreme should be connected to the internet via the modem or whatever your ISP provides. The Mac and Wii connect to the AirPort, either wirelessly or via ethernet cables. When set up this way, your Mac will have nothing to do with connecting your Wii to the internet.
I hope this video will help:

IPad 2 connection through internet sharing

This may be answered somewhere else on the discussions, but I would like some assistance in connecting an iPad 2 to the internet through an iMac that is connected through an Alltel wireless card. In the iMac, I've turned Internet Sharing on, and the airport is also on. What am I missing ? ? ? Or is it not possible ? ? ?

Jack:
I wrote this on an earlier thread and it seemed to help another user so give it a try. Bold type is specific to you. Ignore anything you already know. I'm not sure if you can share the connection from a wireless connection (you CAN share from ethernet) but these are the steps and it may work.
OK if you selected Internet Sharing on the Mac you must also select
Share your Connection from - Ethernet (select ethernet) I think you would choose the Airport option since your are using a wireless card
To Computers Using - Airport (your iPad is the computer using Airport in this case)
Then you may have to select the Internet Sharing option again - put a checkmark in the box
Then go to Security in your preferences and select Firewall - turn off the Firewall to allow incoming connections to your Mac
Make sure you have Airport enabled on your Mac and go up to the Airport icon at the top of the screen, click on it, and drop down to select - Create Network. A box will come up and it should offer your computer's name as the default network name. You can name the network whatever you like. Then create a password.
This should be what you need to do to get connected. Once you do all of the steps on the Mac, reboot your iPad, go to Settings>WiFi>Network and select your new network.

Why is my Verizon air card treated as a dynamically assigned IP, which labels me as a spammer?

Why is my Verizon air card treated as a dynamically assigned IP, which labels me as a spammer? I'm blocked from sending email to folks with a Verizon address, and support blows me off. Is my only solution to through out my air card?

RIPPLES wrote:
The problem was not with forums, it was having emails sent through my Verizon Wireless air card to Verizon Online customers with verizon.net addresses rejected. They were rejected because of Verizon's spam filter, and Verizon repeatedly refused to white list my dedicated IP address saying I was a spammer and that I was using a dynamic IP address--which was not true. After three months of effort and countless hours on the phone with tech support in India, Verizon resolved the problem--but only after I threatened to drop my air card and three phones which were due for renewal.
ironically... People in India often speak better english than people in the states. More than likely unless you live on the East Coast you more than likely not going to get a call center overseas. Pretty sure India doesn't work late hours as a country IIRC the last time I was there it was almost vacant at like 8pm.

Is there a way to connect to Synology 212j NAS through router?

Since I upgraded from Mountain Lion 10.8.5 to Mavericks OS X 10.9.1 I cannot connect my Synology 212j NAS via my router.
Diskstation/iMac Works fine when connected directly with ethernet cable. When connected via router with ethernet no connection is possible.
find.synology.com does not find the NAS, the synology assistant finds the NAS, can configure the IP address, but displays "connection failed" at the end of the process.
When wifi is enabled I can share files through finder. At no point am I able to display DSM configuration interface at 192.168.1.XXX:5000.
All firmware up to date, all devices reset and rebooted several times
The router lists the diskstation IP address in devices (in router configuration ui)
Tried fixed IP and DHCP
Tried port forwarding all services
MacBook Air with Mountain Lion 10.8.5 connects flawlessly to diskstation.
I think there is a problem with the way the IP addresses are being managed between Mavericks OS X and the router is there a way to work around this?

dont think so but I could be wrong
as it were I didn't like the build in audio so I connected some external logictech 2.1 speakers but there
are times when I use headset so I bought this one
or any minijack splitter will work too so I have 2 things connected to the headset port works just fine

Can't connect to the internet through router

I have an HP Pavillian DV6 laptop, DSL connection through ATT, a Linksys wireless N router. It had been working fine for abourt 7 months, Then all of a sudden I lost my network connection. I clicked in the right hand corner to connect to the network & it was gone. I have tried to re-run the software for the router & I get to where it wants to connect to the internet & it won't. I have tried to log into the router to run the setup on the internet explorer page using 192.168.1.1 I now can find my network, I click connect, it says it is connected, but no internet. I can connect to the internet if I plug the modem directly into my laptop, but once I connect from the modem to the router, it will not connect to the internet. I have been searching HP, CIsco, & even my maker of my wirelkess card to see if there were any driver updates. My wireless card says it is up to date. I tried to rest my BIOS, that didn't help either. I'm stumped, & I've spent entirely too much time trying to figure this out with no success, PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Reset your router to defaults. Here's the procedure.
Reconfigure the router so it would connect to the internet. Here's the procedure.
Reconfigure your wireless settings. Here's the procedure. I suggest you set your SSID to something unique. In addition, set your wireless security to WPA or WPA2. Don't use WEP as it is insecure.

Connect AirPort Extreme Base Station to air card

How do you connect AirPort Extreme Base Station to Verizon Air Card?

Sorry, but the Air Card cannot be used with the USB port on the AirPort Extreme because that port will only work with a hard drive and/or a printer.
Suggest that you check with Verizon to see if they have an adapter or wireless router for the Air Card that will provide an Ethernet signal to the AirPort Extreme.
