EA6900 Firmware 1.1.42.155232

Sharing a nightmare... I received and setup my EA6900 last week. Setup was flawless. Noticed the router was cycling two minutes of pulsating front white (power) light then solid followed by blinking white light at a rate of one per second and 5-9 times, then solid again for a while. This sequence is continuously repeated. I did discover the automatic firmware update installed on the initial setup is 1.1.42.155.232 and the one online is 1.1.42.154855. Note: The pulsing and blinking does not interfere with normal router operation to my knowledge. After an hour with linksys technical support who had me manually install firmware version 1.1.42.154955 (this firmware is the initial firmware and only one posted on linksys online) followed by (Here is the Kicker) a hard reset on the router to factory default. At this point initial setup restarts and automatic firmware update places firmware 1.1.42.155232 Now back where I started and 15 minutes of time wasted. After several attempts trying to explain to the technician the sequence she had me perform set the router back to the initial firmware and then back up again with the automatic update...technician decides to RMA the Router and seemed not to comprehend the fact that resetting the router voided all previous procedures. Every time I tried to explain I got "I see," but I have RMA'ed it no need to worry."
Got RMA link emailed to me and after two hours on phone still have not gotten RMA to work because the serial number does not correspond to the case id number (also told this was a model ea6200 which makes me think last nights technician was completely oblivious)...currently awaiting supervisor to call me.
Setting Firmware back to 1.1.42.154955 and turning off automatic updates seems to fix the pulsing and blinking for the most part...have only seen one sequence of pulsing and blinking in the last two hours. Saw a post that the automatically updated firmware may be a beta version and this is why it is not posted online? Firmware version 1.1.42.155232 does not seem to be ready for primetime.

It usually takes about a week after release for the firmware to show up on the support website for download.
Anytime you buy a wireless router shortly after it comes on the market, you have a much higher probability of having to deal with bugs. I never buy a wireless router until after it's been out for 6 months and have read multiple reviews and read feedback.

EA6900 Firmware 1.1.42.155232 A FLOP!

Mr. Moderator, sent you the contact information in regards to my first post EA6900 Firmware 1.1.42.155232 "immediately" as you requested....still no reply from you to "help me" in 4 days. Seeing how technical support runs it's no surprise though.
Got RMA replacement router AE6900 two days ago. Please refer to original post EA6900 Firmware EA6900.
Setup again without a hitch with automatic firmware upgrade to version 1.1.42.155232. Less than 48 hours later the repeating sequence of pulsating, solid, blinking, then solid power light. After three hours with technical support most of time re-explaining the condition over and over again problem moved to engineering level support who will call me back in 24-48 hours. Based on last time to call me back by Senior level tech support in 5 minutes which was 1.5 hours at which point I called them back 24-48 hours could be next week or next month. For those of you reading this post, unless you want to become a Linksys/Belkin Beta tester for free like me, don't buy the EA6900 as technical support is aware of this problem and have no solution other than placing you on hold forever.
Linksys/Belkin Technical support: Just thought of a few solutions to the problem...buy ten of these routers, set them up and wait 2-4 days you should see the pulsing and blinking. You can find a solution on your time and not the customers. Which brings me to my second solution....test your equipment before releasing it!!!!!!

Linksys finally posted the release notes for the latest firmware. I've had my router for a week now and have not experienced any pulsating light. I'm going to assume it might have something to do with your setup. Just a thought.

Router Placement
Forum User - "Well I feel really dumb. After moving the router away from other electronic devices my speeds are back to normal. Just a heads up for anyone experiencing slow speeds, you might want to move it away from other electronics and see if that helps."
3-6' feet minimum safe distance between devices.
Placement on main level floor and central in the building and WELL ventilated is preferred. Not in basements or closets as building materials, or near by electronics devices could interfere or hinder good signal propagation.

EA6900 firmware issue

I have downloaded the firmware 4 times over the past 4 or 5 months and every time I try to open the image file I get an invalid error. Has anyone else had this issue? Can anyone tell me where else I can download the firmware from? I will appreciate any advice or suggestions

you dont need to open it just put it on a wired. pc where you can find it then do the update. shouldn't have to touch the file at all. factory reset, flash the file, factory reset then config from scratch should give you the best results. hope this helps

EA6900 Wireless Auto Channel Issue

EA6900 Firmware: 1.1.42.156465
Wireless auto channel doesn't properly analyze network for channel selection and spacing.
It's best with this device to use a third party software like free "Wifi Analyzer" for mobile devices to find out which channels are not use in at the location and manually set the EA6900 wireless channels.

Have you experienced this to your other wireless devices? If so, relocate the device at least a few feet away from the router, not too close nor too far. Make sure to use different name for both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless settings. You may also change the wireless channel on your router to avoid interference. Preferred channels to use are 1, 6, 9 and 11 since they're considered as non-overlapping channels. If this doesn't help, you may reflash the router's firmware then reset the router for 30 seconds and reconfigure it.

EA6900 drops 2.4 GHz wifi every other day

Hey,
my EA6900 (firmware version 1.1.42.158863) drops the 2.4 GHz network every other day or so. At that point, all connected devices lose the network connection and cannot connect again until I manually reset the router. This is a big pain in the **bleep**.

How do I fix this?
I've enabled automatic router firmware updates, but this has not helped over the last weeks.
Thanks in advance,
Robert

There is a bunch of people with this router ( me included) that are having issues with the wireless dropping out. Some more than others as far as the frequency of it. I have a ticket open with them and have been talking to them every few days about it. One thing I discovered the other day that has stopped it from dropping connections on the 2.4 is to set the mode to G only. I have given this info to linksys and they are supposed to get back to me by tomorrow with some more info. I am assuming it is the same problem as yours: everything is working fine then all of a sudden devices start to disconnect randomly. An my laptops it shows as the SSID is available but it wont connect to it. Only way to get back on is to reboot the router. As suggested by linksys the security is set to WPA2 Personal and the bandwidth is set to 20 mHz instead of auto. There was a big thread about this starting to happen when the last update came out that went from 1.1.42.156465 to 1.1.42.158863. If the Auto update was checked it got the update and started to disconnect wireless stuff. Might want to see what hardware version your is, the 1.0 came with the 1.1.42.156465 so if yours has updated to the newer one you could roll back and see if it gets better. there is a go back to last version button on the UI. but if you have the hw ver 1.1 it came with the updated version and we have been told not to go back as it may brick the router. here is the thread: http://community.linksys.com/t5/Wireless-Routers/EA6900-New-Firmware-1-1-42-158863/td-p/770985

EA6900 Update and Two Suggestions for Future Firmware "Nice to Haves"

Hey, first off, I've been a user of Linksys Routers for many years now, so I am familiar with the different settings and other selections that you generally see on the firmware pages. As to the EA6900, I am very, very PLEASED with how this router initially set up, along with the different pages in it's firmware. With the one exception noted below, the pages and the various settings "flow" very well. This baby is up and kickin and the house is literally dripping in both 2.4 and 5 GHz RF. The DHCP Reservation and MAC Wireless Filtering Tables worked without a hitch. The setup for FTP and NAS was simple! BTW, the setup for FTP shares is far easier than what we had to do using the EA3000 firmware. Kudos there! I am using the router associated with a server that is hosting about 25 different wired devices throughout the house, with a Cisco SG-200-08 Smart Switch behind the router for the LAN, which is load balancing on a Teamed (2 NIC'S) 2GB Adapter . The router grabbed Comcast's Native IPv6 and set that up flawlessly. Here is the information on how all that went (read from the bottom up): http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r28693387-IPv6-Dumb-Questions-About-My-IPv6-Goat-Roped-Hookup Information on how the netwrk worked in Teaming and LAG mode is here: https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/4071888#4071888
OK:, So, Mr. Linksys Firmware Developer, whoever and wherever you are, I have two suggestions on the user GUI that would make everyone's life a little easier next time the firmware is updated:
1. Please make it so numbers, particularly MAC and IPv6 numbers, can be copied and then pasted to another place in the firmware. For example, in the Information tab of the Device Settings section, I should be able to copy MAC and IP numbers and then be able to paste them, say, in the DHCP Reservation Table. Other Linksys device firmware allowed for this.
2. For goodness sakes, PLEASE don't nest the Diagnostics tab under the Troubleshooting group. It drives me nuts to think that getting the router's status, to ping or traceroute, or to do a firmware backup would be found in "Troubleshooting". Suggest that all y'all just remove the Diagnostics tab to the far left side of the application and have that item as its own stand-alone group!
Then I will be most happy. As if it really matters, BUT I wanted to give all y'all my perspective from a user way down in the day-to-day weeds. A most happy Boy otherwise.

EA6900 - Upgraded to latest firmware now can't login to router

Upgraded EA6900 to latest firmware (11629 I believe). Now unable to login to router using either mylocal.router or linksyssmartwifi.com. Continues to pop up message that setup not complete. I repeat the steps to reset the router to factory settings and end up in same spot. I've tried the procedure connected wired to the router and wirelss to the router. I can login to router using smartwifi app on iPad however. Wireless connection still works as devices can connect. I'm stumbed.

Try clearing you browser's history and temporary files. Also restart the computer just in case.

Linksys EA6900 router issue

Hi all,
I have a Linksys EA6900 router with firmware version 1.1.42(build 158863), and it has below issues:
1) Connot access the router
2) My devices can search the WIFI signal, but connot join it successfully.
3) The internal network is working properly, but the internal user cannot access internet.
4) DHCP is not working.
The issue can be fixed after I restart the router, but the problem comes again if it runs after a few weeks. Anyone has any ideas to resolve this issue? Thx!

Upgrade the firmware. The latest version is 161129 and sbould fix your issues. I suggest you follow this procedure:
download the file.from the linksys site to a pc that can be connected to the router by ethernet not wifi
do a factory reset by holding the reset button until the router reboots
Once the router is done booting login to the router locally and do the upgrade using the 192.168.1.1 and a browser.
make sure the auto update is NOT checked then do another factory reset.
once the router is again stable config it from scratch not from a saved file as there were some changes that you don't want to reintroduce to the new revsion.
You should be good after this. Let us know how it goes

EA6900 - Hangs every 2 days

I have an EA6900 wireless router working in bridge mode as a simple wifi access point to my network. The problem is that the device gets hanged every 2 days (no access from wireless, nor from cable, manual restart helps).
Does anyone have any idea how can I fix it? Or should I send it to the service point?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

To safely update FW, I recommend doing the following:
1. Save router config to file first using IE or FF with all security add-ons disabled.
2. Factory reset the router with all other devices disconnected or turned OFF accept for 1 wired PC.
3. Reload or Update the FW using IE or FF. Just download the FW file to your local wired LAN PC.
4. Factory reset the router and then set up from scratch first and test with out loading the saved config from file. Check to see if any problems are fixed before loading the saved config from file.
Enjoy.

Thank You for the help. Indeed, I had firmware version from 2013 - 1.1.42.156465. The device wasn't able to perform automatic updates, I forgot about it. I'll observe the situation and if situation repeats, I'll get back to You.
Thank You!

EA6900 won't recognise USB storage

My new EA6900 is working well, other than it won't recognise additional storage devices plugged in to the USB ports. The main storage device is a Seagate STAY2000202 2TB Expansion 3.5 inch Hard Drive.
I had this same drive plugged in to the USB port of my previous Linksys router, which was a E4200, and it worked perfectly fine with that one. So I assumed I would have no problem with the new EA6900!
The drive is working perfectly fine. If I plug it straight in to my PC, I can see all the files on it. But plugged in to the EA6900, It will not appear on the Linksys dashboard. Nor will any thumb drives, yet there is definitely power at the (USB) ports. I've tried swapping between the two USB ports, but that doesn't seem to work. The firmware on the drive is up to date (or rather, there is no newer firmware available).
Any ideas?

Try resetting the router. If the router won't recognize any USB drive connected to either USB ports even after a firmware upgrade and a reset, I suggest you contact the store for the warranty information of the device and have it replaced.

EA6900 Freezes every few hours.

Hi there, I know it may seem a common problem but after so many years and many routers I never had such an annoing problem.
Im in canada with telus, my 6900 freezes at least once a day with no access to LAN or WAN, I have to unplug the power and then works again for a few hours (sometimes a day).
I tried to revert back to the original firmware with the same result.
It seems that when the IP changes the router freezes (but again It may be just a coincidence since after a forced rebood the IP on telus changes).
I use custom (Unotelly DNS)
My previous E3000 was very stable, so was my WRT54G (all with DD-WRT).
I only have IP4 active (IP6 disabled), UPNP disabled, Media priorization disable and so many other but problem is still there.
Im in canada with telus 50 with an ALU modem.
This seems a software bug to me.
Any help is really appreciated.
Ps I bought the router from linksys USA and then moved to canada

thank you Dave, I have just went back to the previous firmware and spa personal is default on both 2.4 and 5.
I have also put 20 as per your suggestion.
I really like the performance and coverage of this router compared to my old
One thing I noticed is that with the new firmware I was loosing the wifi connection on the 5Ghz band while wired equipment was still working but it was still randomly freezing with no wired or Wifi access.
I will also open a ticket
Again thank you for the reply, I will post the results
Hey garbia. What is the current firmware version of your EA6900 router? Were you able to reset the router after updating it to the latest firmware? Resetting the router after firmware update can help to properly sync the firmware with the router (this works for me). You may also need to isolate if the connection freezes only when your EA6900 router is connected and check if the connection directly to the modem (without the EA6900) is stable.

EA6900 Losing connection to router

I recently bought an EA6900 and it worked fine for a few days. I updated it to the latest firmware. I will have internet connection for about a minute after I reboot it, then it will lose connection. I just reboot the router and it works for a minute or so. I just did a factory reset and everything seems to be fine now, but this kinda concerns me. Just asking if anyone else has seen this to identify a potential issue. If it does it again, I will let you know.

And this is the reason why I'm THROWING AWAY my EA6500 garbage router and buying a Netgear 9000.
What good is a router if you can't be assured that it will retain a connection to the internet?!
After over 100 hours with Linksys tech support, having the unit replaced and still having the same problems it is clear that Linksys (formerly Cisco) does not care about quality any longer.
Even though I had great experiences with my previous Linksys routers this past experience was enough to sour me as a customer and switch back to Netgear.
Now I'm away on "vacation" and I can not access my computer and files because after 3 daya my EA6500 locked up again and there is no one home to power cycle it!
I knew I should have waived the IPv6 DHCP and re-connected my AmpedWireless router before I left - I hate it when I act short sighted.

EA6900 Hangs

Hi,
i'm facing a problem with Wireless routes EA6900 as i have 2 devices
one is used mainly to connect to the internet and the other one is set to be a bridge mode to cover the whole house ..
Let's say Router 1 is the main router and Router 2 is the set on bridge mode .
Here is my setup:
My ISP modem is connected to Router 1 through the WAN Port i set a static IP for My ISP Modem and set a static IP for Router 1 WAN port ..
i have enabled the DHCP on Router1 and i have my wirless active and even the Ethernet Lan working .
i have connected Router 2 Via Ethernet cable to Router 1 and set it in bridge mode (set a static ip for the wan port )
This setup is working fine .. no IP conflicts and getting the maximum speed of the network.
Now my problem is every week i notice that Router 1 Hangs alot ( DHCP Stops working) and you can't connect to the wilress at all. even when you try to access it via eathernet ( by accessing the local IP of the router) the admin page doesn't show up at all
i always have to Turn the Router off an on to be able to work again .
at first i thought that it's a heat broblem so i put Router 1 infront the AC all the time ( so no mater what it's always cold) .
still doesn't fix the problem
i thought that the device is defective so i replaced the routers that i have ( router 1 and router 2 ) and changed the setting for each and still the same problem.
both routers 1 & 2 have the latest Firmware installed ( 1.1.42.158863) and have autoupdate turned on .
Anyone facing the same problem or found a sloution to it ?
Thanks

you are the millionth person to report this so you win the prize!!! just kidding but yes it has been a big issue with the6900 routers. It is being worked on as far as we know and the only solution that works every time is to reboot the router as you have been doing. Hope they issue an update to the firmware soon. by the way, my personal suggistion is to uncheck the auto update so you can control getting the new update if you really want it. The version before the one you show seemed to work better and not it is no longer available. If you try you may be able to roll back with the buttons in the webpage unless your router came with that version already installed.

EA6900 Firmware 1.1.42.155232
