DDNS service on a WRT54GS router

Has anyone been able to user the DDNS service on a WRT54GS router?
Message Edited by sshahir on 12-27-2007 06:16 PM

Hello oook,
Thank you for your reply.
I have used the auto detect IP address (65.95.79.113) recommended (by LinkSys on the Setup/DDSN tab and dyndsn.com web page) to associate the host name initially prior to configure my router DDSN. In other words, first, I have associated the host name (http://sshahir.dyndns.org) to the recommended auto detect IP address (65.95.79.113), and then, I have successfully been able to configure DDNS on the WRT54GS router (according to the message appears on the Setup/DDSN tab). I believe my router DDNS doesn’t work properly regardless the successful DDNS configuration message because the IP address assigned to the host name hasn’t been changed and updated since then, and I cannot browse the web server located behind the router.
Have you assigned a static IP address to your host name (i.e. hostname.dyndsn.com)? If not, please let me know what IP address you used to associate with the host name prior to configure your router DDSN? Has your router DDSN been able to update the IP address associated with the registered host name? If you have used the same IP address (65.95.79.113) initially, and the DDSN works properly, please let me know the firmware version you are using on your router.
Thank you,
sshahir

  • Win XP SP3 PC wired to WRT54G router repeatedly crashes

    I have a Win XP SP3 desktop that is wired (not wireless) to WRT54G router  (v 3.0 router with latest firmware version 4.21.1).
    The PC repeatedly freezes when I connect to internet using IE or Firefox and has to be re-booted using power button. The following are the 2 error messages from Event Viewer:
    1) The AEGIS Protocol (IEEE 802.1x) v3.1.6.0 service failed to start due to the following error: The system cannot find the file specified -  netevent.dll. Source of the error is Service Control Manager
    2) The PCASp50 NDIS Protocol Driver service failed to start due to the following error: The system cannot find the file specified - netevent.dll. Source of the error is Service Control Manager.
    Other details:
    1) Vonage adapter also connected to router
    2) This PC used to be connected to same router via a wireless-G adapter WUSB54G. That has been disconnected, Linksys software uninstalled and PC is now wired to router. The problem used to happen at that time also.
    3) Router is setup with WPA-PSK security with TKIP and mode G-only.
    Any help is greatly appreciated. I am at my wit's end.

    I also would like to suggest that you download and experiment with another browser, Google Chrome or Opera and see if they are affected also. Their installation may refresh or reload the missing dll's.

  • Why is there only Dyndns and TZO DDNS services?

    With all due respect ..but this is the dumbest thing , I've waited so long for the new firmware to be released in hope that my router e1500 could use a free DDNS service but still only DynDns and Tzo which has been acquired by DynDns ..no free DDNS service ..No custom URL ....I'm so disappointed -_-

    I recommend that you phone contact your regional Linksys support office and ask for help and information regarding this. Or [email protected]
    Let us know how it goes please.

  • Cannot use DDNS service in china!

    I am use WRT300N V1(Firmware Version: v1.03.6) wireless router in china, and use China Telecom ADSL Broadband service, I want to use DDNS service but never connet to DynDNS.org, please help me to solve the problem,many thanks.
    Joe

    Well what about in the USA?  I just bought a WRT300N v1.1.  I have a dyndns.org account that has been working for a long time.  It worked with my old BEFSX41, but that did not force periodic updates, so my account kept coming up for deletion.  I was using DYNDNS Updater instead, but thought I'd give the new router a try to see if the behavior was the same as the BEFSX41.  When I hit the update button, it comes back as if there's some error on the page, and the status line is still empty.  I have firmware v1.51.2.
    Thanks!

  • Successful DSL Setup With Westell 6100G and Linksys WRT54G Router

    After a week of searching I finally figured out how to get DSL setup with my Linksys router.
    All I could get out of the Westell > Linksys router configuration was DSL downloads limited to less than 0.2 Mbps.   No matter what I did on the router settings that was it.    I had a second eHome router that easily configured and achieved the 1.0 Mbps download speeds so that confirmed Verizon and the Westell modem were not the issue.
    So what's wrong with the Linksys router configuration?    I had the Linksys WRT54G router Version 5.   Checking the firmware it was the original release of 1.0.0.   (See your routers instructions which can be downloaded from Linksys for how to check your firmware).   I downloaded the latest firmware version for this router model and version number.    Following the Linksys instructions I flashed the latest firmware 1.02.8.   Now I had an updated modem ready to be configured for DSL.   
    Assuming you already followed Verizons instructions to set the Westell modem to bridge mode setup your router to work with it. 
    Step 1: Go into the modem typing its address... Default 192.168.1.1   leave the ID blank and the default password is admin.
    Step 2: Go to the Basic > Setup screen.  
    Step 3:  Select PPPoE and the screen menus will change
    Step 4:  Enter your Verizon ID  (exclude @Verizon.net)
    Step 5:  Enter your Verizon Password.
    Step 6:  Go to the bottom of the screen and hit Save.   Wait and the router will indicate it was saved.
    That's it.  All you need are the three entries above to get it working.   Turn off the PC, Router and Westell.   Turn on the Westell, then the router and then boot the PC.   It should work at this point.    I now get the full DSL speed for both downloads and uploads.    
    The bottom line....check you router, especially the older models for updated firmware before you give up on it. 

    Glad top see you found a configuration for your Westell and Linksys to function.  Thanks for posting resolution.

  • 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.

  • Wat is the benefit of using DDNS service with windows essential 2012?

    hi,
    wat is the benefit of using DDNS service  with essential server, do I have  then not to make  an A record or CNAME record , this all wil be done with DDNS service provider or DDNS service has other functions ?
    thanks
    johan
    h.david

    ok,
    I phoned the DDNS service provider and I understand that they make for you A record and ect.  but first you need a DDNS support router and second you have to open the ports yourself.
    but the problem is the ports are closed by the  ISP provider when you have  a consument abonee.
    so I thing you must have static IP adress to be the ports 80,443 open  , so when I can have static IP adress and make A records by mijn own then I think I don't need this DDNS  service provider. am I right or wrong ?  wat is the benefit of
    DDNS service if the ports in consument abonee situation are closed?

  • I can not reactivate my DDNS service after having reinstalled my Creative Live Wireless Webcam

    Hi,
    After having changed my wireless router's network key, I had to change of course also the key
    stored in my Creative Live Wireless Internet Camera setup. To do
    this, I have deleted my cam definitions and did a scratch install after
    resetting. However now I can not register my URL name anymore and DDNS is
    disabled. The setup wizard says that it could not connect to the server to
    register my host name (in fact this name is already registered by me before) and that I should try again. I attempted numerous times, no help!
    The IP adress of my Creative Wireless Cam is 92.68..250, it is exactly the same as it
    was before. My registered URL was "goztepe.creativeddns.com" and remote monitoring?was working?
    with these parameters without any problem, which are still the same as before, I did not change them.
    How should I reactivate my DDNS service? Maybe a reset or something alike is needed on the Creative Server which is doing the URL registrations? I would appreciate any help because I
    am not able to access my cam from remote anymore!
    Thanks in advance. Ozgur Ozdemir

  • Setting UP Static IP With WRT54G router

    Setting a static IP shouldn't be a problem, since setting the static IP is done on the computer.  So why am I having such a problem?? Let me tell a little about my setup.
    I have a DSL connection.  My DSL netopia modem uses PPPoe of course, and broadcast a DHCP connection to my WRT54G router.  3 computers are connected to this router. 1 desktop (vista) wired and 2 laptops (XP) wireless/wired. I'm attempting to create a static IP for the desktop and later for the laptops, but each time I do, I lose internet connectn nor am I able to connect to DSL modem at 192.168.1.254
    Within the router I have changed the DHCP count to 5, with the starting IP as 192.168.1.1.  Linksys help advise to change IP to 192.168.2.1, but I still get the same problem when creating a static ip.
    Within desktop (vista Home Premium SP1), I have changed the local area network to the following:
    IP          - 192.168.1.060
    Mac      - 255.255.255.0
    Gateway-192.168.1.1
    DNS      -192.168.1.1
    Once I change the IP to above, from obtain auto, I lose the connection.
    Later the laptops IP address will be changed to 192.168.070 and .080 
    Aren't static Ip address suppost to be outside the DHCP range?
    Isn't the gateway address my router?
    apoloize for the big questions, but tried to get all information within it.
     Thanks

    Before doing this, In Windows go to run and type CMD hit enter. In the command prompt, type ipconfig /all and record your DNS server/servers if more than one. Not getting the proper DNS server information, will prevent you from going to websites like linksys.com by typing linksys.com in the address bar, instead you would have to know the IP of linksys.com to browse the page, not very user friendly and I can barely remember my phone number, let alone IP addresses of all the sites I go.
    Log into your router. Leave your WAN settings alone, since that will determine your settings for the connection to the internet. Now configure your Network settings on the router. The 192.168.1.1  or 192.168.2.1 for the ip and leave the subnet mask 255.255.255.0 as is. Disable DHCP on the router. DHCP is a service that the router will use to issue out IP addresses automatically. This is the complete opposite of what you are trying to do with a static connection. Once these settings have been changed, you will need to configure the connection on the PC and any other connecting device to the router via wired or wireless since DHCP is now disabled. If not, you will just be stuck all day while the network adapter trys to get a network address and DHCP has a heart attack.
    Configure your network adapters. Assign the IP address. If you used 192.168.1.1 then the IP will need to be 192.168.1.2 through 192.168.1.254 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 or if you used 192.168.2.1 the IP will need to be 192.168.2.2 through 192.168.2.254 with subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 and enter the DNS server information as recorded from earlier. Default gateway will be whatever the IP address of the router you configured. 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.2.1 etc etc etc.
    Just remember to not duplicate any IP address when configuring other devices and all should work well.
    This worked fine for me earlier today when I needed a static connection.

  • Need help with understanding static vs dhcp on wrt54g router

    I currently have a NAS200 device attached to my WRT54G router. The WRT54G is in DHCP mode so as to allow my various laptops and cameras to be accessed over the internet. What happens is that when I have a power failure the NAS200 is given a new ip address even though its plugged into a service port. I am then forced to go into the router and change the port mapping to whatever port the router has given to the NAS. Is there any way to keep the NAS200 at a specific ip address regardless of router resets. Thanks Hexmate

    You have to set the static IP address on the NAS. The NAS is currently configured to use DHCP. Change it there to set a specific static IP address. The router itself does not have to option to set a fixed IP address to a specific device via DHCP.
    For static IP addresses make sure to choose an IP address which is not used by any other device nor is inside the DHCP server address pool of the router. With default configuration a Linksys router uses 192.168.1.1 and the DHCP server uses 192.168.1.100-149, thus you have addresses 192.168.1.2-99 and 150-254 available.
    Use an static IP address like 192.168.1.50, netmask 255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.1.1 (if the NAS needs internet, e.g. for time synchronization) and DNS 192.168.1.1. That should do it. Again: this has to be done on the NAS device. The router has no option for that.

  • Our Businessman's Radio Interrupts our WRT54G Router

    My husband is a farmer and has a businessman's radio that he uses to communicate with his hired hands.  He hooked one up here in our home office, but when he did, our Linksys WRT54G Router stopped, and therefore we don't get Internet.  I tried moving the radio to a different place in the room, but it still interrupted the service.  I'm sure there's a different frequency or something that I can change, but I'm not savvy enough to know how or what or where!  Advice?
    Thanks!
    norobin

    My guess is that your radio uses the same 2.4 GHz band as your WRT54G router.
    If the above is true, then the solution is to get the radio and the router to use different channels.  There are 11 channels in the 2.4 GHz band.    Check the radio manual and try to verify whether or not it is using the 2.4 GHz band, and determine what channel the radio is using.  Then (assuming the radio does use the 2.4 GHz band) set the radio and WRT54G to different channels, preferably at least 5 channels apart.  For example, if the radio is using channel 9, then set the router to any channel 1 thru 4.
    If you cannot determine the channel that the radio is using, then try setting the router to a different channel.  This is a matter of trial and error, to see what channel in the router will work best.  Usually channels 1, 6, or 11 work best. 
    Some radios will use all the 2.4 GHz channels, and cannot be restricted to a single channel, or a few channels.  In this case, the radio and the router will not be able to be used together.

  • I have a linksys WRT54G router that we use as a base. I want to use Airplay using Airport Express and hook up my stereo to it. How can i set up my Airport express without a PC/laptop? I just downloaded Airport utility on my iphone and ipad,will that work?

    I have a linksys WRT54G router that we use as a base. I want to use Airplay using Airport Express and hook up my stereo to it. How can i set up my Airport express without a PC/laptop? I just downloaded Airport utility on my iphone and ipad,will that work? And one more thing about the setup, the linksys router shich acts as a base is in a different room as the airport express which i wanted to use for airplay. So I'm hoping to hook up the Airport express via wireless signal. If i can set it up, can someone pls help me out by posting detailed instructions. Thanks so much!

    The first message that AirPort Utility will display during the auto setup will be that the Express will be confgured to "extend" the network. When AirPort Utility analyzes the network further, and sees that the Express cannot "extend" the 3rd party network, the next message will indicate that the Express is being configured to "join" the wireless network.
    Once the Express is configured, if you later go into AirPort Utility to check the settings under the Wireless tab, you will see that the Wireless Mode is indeed "Join a wireless network".

  • 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. 

  • How do I set up WRT54G router with 4 computers and WVC54GC Wireless Camera

    Can anyone please tell me how to set up my Home Network with full security turned on?
    I have at least 4 neighbors that show up on my wireless connections list. I have a daughter that loves music and is constantly downloading viruses but only on one wireless connection. The rest of us want to be protected from that computer. My system consists of the following:
    One Linksys WRT54G Router
    Two Linksys WMP54G Wireless PCI adapters,
    Two Linksys WVC54GC Wireless Cameras  (Possibility four if the 1st two ever work OK.)
    Two Linksys LNE100TX PCI Ethernet Cards,
    One HP Ethernet Printer
    Three computers were connected by Ethernet cable and one was wireless. I did not change the admin password and I thought everything was working fine for a couple of years until I found that the wireless computer was acting as a “drone” and slowing everything down to a snails pace.  It could even turn itself on.
    I changed one of the Ethernet computers to wireless and decided that it might be time to also change the password and increase security.  Setting up security completely shutdown the wireless drone computer. I was OK with that, at least until I can reformat that harddrive.
    I then decided while I was at it, I would add a wireless camera (WVC54GC). I set it up using the software and Ethernet cable that came with it. After 6 tries I finally got the camera to work with the cable attached, but it does not work wireless and now none of the other computers connect any more. Is there a limit on how many connections? Should I reset the router and if so, do I disconnect the DSL modem? I’m afraid of the “drone” computer because I found some very bad malware on it. One in particular caused me to replace a hard drive.
    I’ve read page after page of network stuff on the Internet and I guess I just don’t know how to ask the right questions. I’m tired of fooling with this.

    hi , when u talk about security , are u referring to the "viruses" your daughters PC may be propogating to the rest of the network , or are u referring to external attacks on the router or your wireless PC"s ???
    In case u are referring to the "virus" attacks , the best you can do is install a good antivirus software on all PC"s and keep the virus definations updated....
    In case u are referring to the wireless security , i'd suggest that your use WPA2 personal. you can select WPA2 by going to the "wireless security" option.
    let me know if u need anything more.
