E2000 router device to device connection

I have a E2000 router/access point. I am able to connect 3 laptops, 1 smartphone and 1 printer wirelessly to the access point. All computers and smartphone can access the Internet. The problem is that none of the devices can connect with each other and thus cannot print. I can ping the router, no problem. Get "request timed out" message when trying to ping from one device to the other. Router firmware is 1.04
Any ideas what's going on?
Thanks,

Unfortunately, that didn't work. I tried it both my XP and Win 7 laptops with no success. Still cannot ping either the printer or other computers, but can ping router and obviously have Internet access.
Any other thoughts?
Yup, I agree with troia.  Make sure to turn off the firewall. 
Check the ICMP settings of Windows.
Start > Run > firewall.cpl >Advanced > Click "Settings" under ICMP
The only option that should be checked is "Allow incoming echo request".

  • Names of devices connected to router

    How can I tell the names of the devices that are connected to my E2000 router? Cisco connect says I have 4 devices connected but I only have 3. I am trying to figure out where the 4th device is coming from.
    Solved!

    Cisco says I have 40 and I only have 4, huge difference. maybe because when I first installed my linksys. I called company for help and got some guy calling himself shibo and he hacked my computer and will not leave my router nor my computer. I have tried for 8 months to get rid of him, but he hacked into my dos. and as long as I remain with cisco linksys  he is going to be on my router hacking my stuff. I think this company should not hire foreigners to maintain the business. I talked to cisco headquarters and they could not do anything, they just suggest that I ask for american based help only...so everyone. please beware!! 
    Hi! Where were you able to see the 40 devices connected to your network? Have you tried powering off your router and see if it shows the same number of devices connected to your network?

    For the Internet, you should set up a router on your modem, this router will route the packets to any device on the local area network.
    If you use the iMac as a router, like if you connect the Ethernet cable from your modem to the iMac, then broadcast a Wifi signal, the iMac will have to remain on all the time, at full power. Thus drastically shortening it's lifespand.
    A router is only about $100 or so, offers much better security as it's like a large guard, someone has to hack through router first to get your iMac or other devices.
    If it breaks, you buy another 5 years later for another $100, so your not placing all that always on wear and tear on your expensive iMac.
    Apple's airport routers are pretty good, easy to set up and have automatic firmware updates, plus music sharing etc.
    Set up properly you will be very secure

  • Issues with FIOS modem/router's wireless and multiple devices connected to the WLAN?

    I am an IT consultant who was assisting someone with getting some devices connected to the fios wireless router and adding a wireless print server so they could print wirelesly. 
    I was having difficulty with one of their systems that was connected prior to me going on site.
    It was having difficulty obtaining an IP from the WLAN, i tried reinstalling the adapter, removing stored wlan settings and setting it up again, etc.
    When it did obtain an IP it could not ping the router.
    I had left it suggesting that they replace the wireless adapter on that system.
    However they're saying that after they shut down one of their other devices that i had connected (a netbook), that this problematic system started working fine.
    It makes no sense that a wireless client would have an impact on another wireless client. We're only talking 4 total devices here, a netbook, a laptop, a wireless print server and a desktop in another area of the house that has a usb wireless adapter.
    Does anyone have any ideas on if Verizon's wireless built in to the fios modem/router just isn't too good to handle multiple wireless devices?
    After hearing this i was thinking they might have been better off configuring the fios router as a bridge and getting a better wireless router or shutting off the fios supplied wifi and implementing a wireless access point instead of using the router/modem that verizon provides.

    By bridge I mean in the sense you see some of the early DSL setups configured before they started using multiport routers -- essentially bridging the WAN MoCA port to the LAN ethernet.   The ActionTEC's won't do that.   This is what I think most are seeking to do when they want to turn the device into a "bridge" (essentially making the Verizon unit "transparent" to the communication which in this scenario it can't be).  You can do as suggested an turn the ActionTEC into essentially a "switch/bridge" that is only bridging the MoCA LAN and Ethernet LAN segments, but this then requires you to have an ethernet WAN feed from the ONT ... and as indicated, it is definitely not a "supported" configuration from Verizon (although there is nothing "wrong" with doing it this way if you are comfortable with networking and understanding the mechanics of all that is going on -- if not, sticking with a supported configuration is highly advisable).

  • WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none receive

    Hi,
    WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none received"... Help
    I have tried network diagnostics which doesnt help... The only other ting is, when I woke the computer up it said tat another device was using my IP... My wife had plugged her phone into the computer to charge etc but even when i turn wifi off on the phone there is no change... also in settings on the phone the IP address is different...

    The answer to your question is - neither!
    Your PC should to configured to obtain an IP address automatically, and to obtain DNS server IP addresses automatically, from the Airport Express. This is the way Windows (and Macs for that matter) are configued by default, and that is the way most people have their computers set up. If you manually configured your PC's IP address to be the same as your wife's Mac, it certainly explains why your PC is not able to access the internet.

  • Comcast just replaced my cable modem/wireless router.  All devices connect properly except my iPhone 4.  It shows itself to be connected to the network, but it does not load any web page.  Resetting the iPhone does not solve the problem.  Any suggestions?

    Thank you for your response.
    I had rebooted the router (several times, actually), to no avail.
    I do not know the answer to whether MAC filtering is enabled on the router.  Have tried to find info about that, but unsuccessfully.  Router is an Arris TG852G, supplied by Comcast.  I would be surprised if MAC filtering were the issue, since in addition to the computer, we have successfully connected several other devices to the wifi, namely an iPad, a Android phone and a Kindle Fire - all able to access internet pages through the wifi, and all without a need to add the device to a MAC address whitelist.  To add to the mystery, the Comcast tech was able to connect his iPhone 4 to my network and access web pages.  He was unable to connect my iPhone, however, after trying for some time.
    I seem to recall reading somewhere that an iPhone cannot connect to a wireless "n" router, only "b" or "g".  The Arris router is described as a n/g/b compliant router, and as noted the Comcast tech was able to connect his iPhone, so don't know why that would be the issue here.
    By the way, my iPhone does connect wirelessly to my network at home.  This difficulty is at a second home.
    Any other thoughts would be appreciated.

  • Blocking instagram, face book, snapchat on a certain device connected to Sky Router

    Hi All Is there a way to block instagram, facebook and snapchat apps on a certain device connected to my router ? I dont want to block the complete interent, just these apps on a certain device ?? I have about 5 devices connecting to my router and need to block these for one of my kids ipads I know sky shield can do this, but this would be for all devices ?? How can I do this for the one devices MAC address ? Is it possible ? I dont want to block them for the other devices connected. Cheers Nige

    Hi  Matt,
    When you connect  to an external router directly, does your network location change to private or still domain network?
    I suspect this is related to some firewall setting, even related to your network security device.
    Please check or upload the WindowsUpdate.log ( %windir%\Windowsupdate.log), we can find some information about downloading phase.

  • How to view other devices connected to router

    I can see how many devices are connected to my router at any one time, but how do I see which devices are connected?
    Thanks!

    For the E1000 V2 the only way to know what devices are connected to your network is thru the DHCP clients table only. It will show you the mac address or ip address of the devices that are currently connected to the network. If you are using the cisco connect software it will only show you the number of devices connected but will not be able to give you detailed information. If you check parental controls, it will allow you to select computers only since those are the only devices recognized by the software.

  • 2011 Macbook Pro 17" Thunderbolt port "No Device Connected"

    Please help!
    I have a 2011 (early) 17" Macbook Pro (8,3)
    Core i7 - 2.2
    Boot Rom: MBP81.0047.B27
    SMC: 1.70f6
    Running Yosemite 10.10
    I recently purchased a Akitio Thunderdock.
    ***It does not mount and when I check the system report, the thunderbolt bus shows "No Device Connected."
    I reset the PRAM numerous times.
    Reset the SMC.
    Everything is plugged in correctly, with a proper thunderbolt cable.
    When I attach the thunderbolt cable to the MBP, the blue LED on the on the dock lights up. (meaning link connected)
    But the thunder dock will not mount. 
    Thunderbolt specs:
    Route String: 0
    Link Status: 0x101
    Firmware Version: 20080d.0
    Status: No device connected
    Port Micro Firmware Version: 1.2.1
    Before I got the dock I used (and still do) use the thunderbolt port with a mini display adapter to connect a 2nd display. 
    (works fine for this function.)
    Thank you for your help.
    J.
    ***Before suggesting it's the dock/power/bad cable:
    I tested the Thunderdock with my GF's Macbook Air (2013) it mounts fine and sees every port on the dock (USB3, eSATA, FW800).

    Same here.
    Did anyone try to downgrade to Mavericks?

  • 4 out of 5 devices connect to Time capsule. Last one to try to connect fails to connect, no matter which device it is.

    Prior to problem: All 5 devices (iMac, Mac Air, iPad and (2) iPhone 4) were surfing wirelessly on Airport express.
    Replaced AE with Time Capsule.
    Problem: Wife's iPhone could not connect to T.C. Other 4 devices connect without problem. Wife's iPhone can surf other wireless networks. After doing a total shut down of all devices and restart of each, starting with 3rd party router, then T.C., then each device one at a time... wife's iPhone can connect, but Mac Air can not. Observed that in each case, the one that can't connect is the last one to be restarted and attempt to connect. Did this a 3rd time. I chose my iPhone to be the last to try to connect . My iPhone can't connect but all other devices are connected. Every case: last to connect can't connect.
    Steps taken before realizing it was the "last device to try connecting" (back when I thought it was simply my wife's iPhone): Wifi Off/On. "Forget Network." Reset Network Settings. Power iPhone Off/On. Power T.C. Off/On. Turned T.C. wireless security Off/On. All these were done multiple times.
    It appears there is no hardware issue since all are capable of connecting to T.C., just not at the same time. I don't know much about protocols and addresses. Could it be that T.C. is fouling up the assignment of an address or channel or route or whatever to the 5th device that tries to connect? Is the 5th device left without a address, channel or route to the T.C.?
    My security is WPA2 Personal. It's on. The password is alphanumeric 9 characters. On my iPhone that can't connect, the satus wheel is spinning continuously beside my network's name. Tapping the blue arrow for more info shows the window that has "Forget this network" at the top, followed by DHCP, BootP and Static. DHCP is selected. The following fields are listed: IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router, DNS, Search Domain and Client ID. Most times, all of these fields are blank. Right now, the first two fields are filled in. IP address starts with 169 and subnet mask is 255.255.0.0
    Please help.

    Right now, the first two fields are filled in. IP address starts with 169 and subnet mask is 255.255.0.0
    That is auto IP and means the device was not able to pick up an IP from the dhcp server.
    I am scratching my head.. it is not one I have seen with Mac stuff or on these columns since I started answering questions.. it is seen in mixed environments fairly often that stuff doesn't play nice with each other. But Mac - Apple has shown fairly consistent wireless functionality.
    Is the TC brand new? Did you ring Apple and ask if they can sort it?
    When you are using 100% apple environment, to me that is their job to figure out.
    For what you can do, I would try and flash the TC back to 7.5.2 firmware. I have heard people say the latest TC that is not allowed but have a go.. if you run Lion certainly download and use exclusively 5.6 airport utility.
    Is the TC set to router or bridge? Is the TC the only router?
    Could you bypass at least the issue for now using the airport express plugged into the TC as an AP??

  • WRT54GS v5.1 auto reboot when wireless device connects

    Hi,
    I'm using the linksys WRT54GS wireless router v5.1
    Current Firmware version v1.50.9, Sep. 14, 2006
    The problem that I have is that everytime a new device connects to the Router wirelessly, the router reboots itself.
    After the reboot, everything seems to be working fine. This becomes quite annoying when it comes to gaming and another family member turns on their laptop and then I get disconnected by the router because they are connecting.
    What I have done upto now is reset the router after doing the FirmWare Version update and the problem still occurs. (The problem was still there even before I had done a FirmWare Update.)
    Is there a way to solve this problem? because I have read about a few other problems just like mine on the forums and they don't seem to have been resolved.
    Or will I have to go back to PCWORLD to see if I can get a refund / replacement?

    I do not see a "keep alive" option. I use the Automatic Configuration - DHCP because I have connected, a CABLE MODEM provided by my cable provider Telewest Blueyonder
    The router just reboots when the wireless laptops connect. The wired desktop (this PC) loses connection as it is rebooting and regains connection after the reboot. Then both PC and Laptop work fine.

  • EA6500 doesn't show device connected to 5 port workgroup switch

    I just replaced a defective Linksys e4200 with an ea6500.  After some help over the phone, I got it up and working, but one computer on my local network doesn't show up.
    I had connected an 8 port 10/100 Linksys switch to my 4200, and my wife's computer was connected to that.   Her computer shows the ip address as 192.168.1.133 and it is connected to the internet with my new router.  But the ea6500 doesn't show a device with the ip address.  Instead it shows  what it calls a Network device with ip address 192.168.1.130.
    How can I see the devices connected to the 5 port switch and determine what ip addresses they have been assigned?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I am using a switch with my network with an EA router and it shows the devices correctly. Turn off the computer that is not showing up in the device list and check if any device will show as offline adter that. Remove it from the device list and reboot the router afterwards. Once the router is ready, open the router page again and power on the computer and check if it will be detected correctly. Hope this helps.
    Edit: Check and make sure that you have the latest firmware loaded. If not upgrade the firmware and do a reset after the firmware upgrade. Check your device list after that.
