Guide to configure linksys router e1200

Sorry to come here, but I have a linksys E1200 router connected to a modem Zyxel P600 Series, and I suffer every 24 hours exact connections with the modem connected only works perfect, but with the router every 24 hours Connection signal is lost no or limited so look for a guide aver if set correctly. Thank you in

It could be that when the modem renews the connection, the new IP address issued does not register on the router hence the disconnections. If the Internet Connection Type on the router is set to PPPoE, ensure that the "Keep Alive" option is selected. If it's set to Automatic Configuration DHCP, enabling MAC Clone might help. Go to the MAC Address Clone subtab under Setup and click on "Clone my PC's MAC".
Also ensure that the router and the modem are not in the same network. Check the Internet IP address under Status. If the IP shows 192.168.1.x, make sure your router's LOCAL IP is not the same network as the modem's. You can change the router's IP address under Setup. Use 192.168.X.1 where X can be any number except 1 (for example: 192.168.2.1).

Work provided, pre-configured, Linksys router

Couldn't figure out how to get the mac to work with my secure wifi network so we just opened it up. 9 months later, work provided me a mandatory router to use with my intel work laptop. Not real interested in using 2 routers at the house.
Here's the config that work provided on this router:
Configuration and profile contain the following:
Time Zone changed to “Central”
Router address changed to 192.168.10.1
Router password changed to h3lpd3sk
SSID name changed to LS54gJFG
SSID broadcasting: Disabled
WEP 128bit Encryption Enabled, Key 1: 661799CE0CD0CA8F8FAC40CD48
Passphrase SPEK4LS54gJFG
How do I configure this on the Mac. I tried the wizard and tried dumping the web and the passphrase into different fields but the DANG thing will not connect to the network. There are instructions for employee's to connect intel personal computers to this wifi device so it's not an issue of only allowing corp PC's to the router, but rather just need to know how to do this w/ a mac.

In as much as the SSID Broadcast has been disabled you will need to select "Other" in the drop down Airport status in the menu. Then type in " LS54gJFG". Then you will need to put in the password "661799CE0CD0CA8F8FAC40CD48". Sometimes a $ sign in front of the password may be required to get in. Your other option is to reconfigure the router. In a browser type in the router's address. You have the router password. Then open it up to what you want. Your other option is to reset the router to factory default by pressing in and holding the reset button.

Issue in Configuring Linksys RV042 router

Hi,
I am facing some issues in configuring the Linksys RV042 router with dual WAN configuration. We are having two internet connection and I want to perform the "Load balancing" between the two internet connections. I have followed the RV042 manual and configured the router.
But while using the Linksys RV042 for load balancing the "Outlook 2007" and "MSN" are frequently disconnecting in the client machines. We could not use the Linksys RV042 router because of this issue.
We are using the "Static IP" for the two internet connection and configured with manual. We are facing issue only in "Outlook" and "MSN" but I can browse the sites without any issues.
Is there any configurtaions needed? Please help us to get the solution in this issue.
If you need any more details please mail me @ [email protected]
Thanks in Advance,
R. Manikandan.

R. Manikandan,
Without knowing more about your configuration, and the reason for "Outlook" and "MSN" disconnecting. I would suggest that you look at the following documentation for setting up "Dual WAN" on the RV042.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps9923/products_qanda_item09186a0080a36632.shtml
It sounds like you may need to setup "Protocol Bindings" for your SMTP traffic to be directed out a specific WAN port.
If you continue to have issues, please let us know.

Best configuration for a LinkSys Router

I've had the best wifi signal using a new LinkSys E3000 router, but it's varied depending on the band/channel. Can anyone else with a LinkSys router recommend settings that work best with an iPad?
Here's mine:
LinkSys E3000
5GHz
N-only
20MHz channels
Static IP, using DHCP reservation
36-48 channels
SSID broadcast enabled

Let me know the distance between wrt54gs router and the access point...
If the distance is 60 to 70 feet you may try this...Though AP Client will only work with another WAP54G you may still try this...This set up will not work if you try to communicate the WRT54GX2 router with WAP54G, so you need to configure the WRT54GS router with WAP54G...
1) Connect the WRT54GS router to the modem and configure the WRT54GS router for internet access...Once you are done configure your Access Point in Access Point Client Mode...For this you need to log in to your wrt54gs router and go to status tab, click on Wireless subtab under Status...Note down the MAC Address...
2) Now access the set-up page of your Access Point, click on AP Mode and select AP Client and in the Remote Access Point's LAN MAC Address field type the Wireless MAC Address you took note in Step1 and click Save Settings...
3) Match the Wireless Settings and IP Address settings on both the devices(WRT54GS and WAP54G)...
4) Connect the WAP54G on the LAN/ETHERNET Port of the WRT54GX2 router and disable it's DHCP...Change the Wireless Settings on the WRT54GX2 router and connect your wireless clients to the router...See if this works...

Linksys router configuration

OK, first off, I swear I'm not an idiot. I had my linksys router working fine and for reasons that will go undisclosed (because they may fly in the face of my "I'm not an idiot" statement) I reset my router and modem and needed to set everything up again. I got the modem (DSL) reconfigured and functional but I cannot for the life of me get the router functioning again. (I called linksys and they said they couldn't talk to me unless I paid them $45 to buy a support program)
I know for sure that I have the cables connected properly (DSL to modem, modem to 'internet' port on router, router port1 out to computer)
I have gone to 192.168.1.1 and configured the router several times based on two or three different websites. This has included setting the router name and setting the SSID and saving settings within the configuration module any time I did anything.
I've also gone into System Prefs/Network and done some stuff in there. The current settings are:
IP Address: 192.168.1.46
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Router: 192.168.1.1
DNS Server: 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.1
Under "Advanced" I've got the TCP/IP tab with:
Configure IPv4 Using DHCP (grey out pulled down menu)
IPv4 Address 192.168.1.46
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Router: 192.168.1.1
Last night when I was working with directions from the linksys website I had the router address set to 192.168.1.2 also.
I would be THRILLLLEDD if anyone could help me.
Thanks so much.
Peter Booth

what about the settings between the modem and the router?
If your modem is a router (and it is not in bridge mode) then you will have to set the IP address
accordingly. Say the modem IP is 192.168.0.1 (on the lan side, then your settings on the router
(on the wan side) would be something like 192.168.0.2 for IP, DNS 192.168.0.1, Gateway
192.168.0.1, mask 255.255.255.0.
If your modem is not a router (or is stuck in bridge mode), then your router (on the wan side)
will be your IP's settings. You will have to use DHCP unless you have a static IP.
I had the same problem a while back, and what happened was my modem/router got hung in
bridge mode after I reset it trying to get it to work (via my IP's tech support instructions) when
I upgraded my DSL speed. My tech guy told me to return the modem and exchange it because
once the thing gets stuck in bridge mode the only way to get it out is to send it back to the factory
repair shop. I sent it back because I like running the dual firewall arrangement (my firewall/router
and the modem firewall/router).
Make sure the modem/router is not using the same IP address range (on the lan side) as your
router uses (on its lan side), other wise you could have conflicting IP addresses between the two.

Installing Linksys Router for DSL

HELP!!
Here's what I did first:
Pulled off instructions from Linksys "Setting Up DSL on a Linksys Router Using an Apple/Mac computer".
Second:
Inside the router package is the document "start here" , with a Run CD First. Inserted cd , never prompted - took that out.
Now my confusion: should I start where??? I'm no good at the technical part. I'm trying.
Any suggestions.

cmykGirl, Welcome to the discussion area!
Also, on the CD you will find the Users Guide (a PDF document). Follow the directions for configuring the router via a web browser. The screen shots are from Windows but it works exactly the same from the Mac.
BTW, this is the discussion area for the iMac G4. There is another dedicated discussion area for the iMac G5.

Linksys wireless E1200 issue problem

I have the linksys E1200 at home , but I try to setup but the wifi it not connnect ,
I have router form TIME WARNER CABLE RCA THOMPSON DCM425
My IP address is 65.56.164.79
subnet Mask : 255.255.248.0
Router :66.56.160.1

@rishiforum
Can you get online directly to the router? If you can, you may configure the router by following the steps below.
1. Connect the Cable modem to the router’s WAN or Internet port.
2. Connect a computer to any of the numbered ports (1, 2, 3 or 4). If you are using a wireless computer, you will need to connect it first with an Ethernet cable.
3. Connect the power adapter of your router to the power outlet. (NOTE: After connecting the devices together, check the lights on the front panel of the router. Ensure that the lights corresponding to the ports where the Ethernet cables are connected to are lit.)
4. Access the router’s web-based setup page. Open any web browser such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Chrome or Safari. Enter “192.168.1.1” on the Address bar then press [Enter].
5. You will then be asked for your login details. Leave the User name field blank and enter “admin” on the Password field then click OK. (NOTE: If you have received an error message after typing your router’s password, this means that the password entered is incorrect. Try accessing the router’s web-based setup page again and enter the correct password. If you lost or forgot your router's password, click here to know steps on how to reset the router to factory settings.)
6. On the Setup tab, click the MAC Address Clone.
7. Select Enabled then click on Clone My PC’s MAC.
8. Click Save Settings. (NOTE: NOTE: Ensure that the Internet Connection Type is set to Automatic Configuration – DHCP.)

Airport Extreme connected to a linksys router - need help finding PCs on ls

Hello, I just set up an iMac connected to an airport extreme that connects to the internet through an existing linksys that is connected to my cable modem. I also want to share files with two PCs on that are connected to the linksys and share the printer that is on my airport extreme with all three machines. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions.
You'll need to enable +Wireless Bridging+ on the router and open the relevant ports in the Firewall for printing and file sharing (see the Linksys Manual).
As to sharing files and sharing printers after you've configured the router then take a look at iFelix's excellent guides:
Printer Sharing
File Sharing.

Use HH2 as modem for Linksys router

OK, so i have BT broadband and the HH2. I live in a flat with 5 other people, and we need the QoS capabilities of the Linksys WRT54GL.
To get internet working i need to use the HH2 as a modem that plugs into the Linksys router.
Iv followed a few guides on these forums but none of them worked.
S basically right now the HH2 is connected to the ADSL line then from its ethernet port 1 its connected to the linksys's internet ethernet port. I have disabled firewalls on both devices and DHCP on the linksys.
I am now stuck for ideas...
So please could someone give me step by step instructions on how to get this setup to work?
Thanks alot

1. Using a PC wired into the current router, unplug it from the wired connection and plug into a LAN port on the secondary router. Access the secondary router using your browser via its default LAN IP address and default password. Since the PC was attached to the previous router you will have tell the PC to obtain a LAN IP from the new device. Use 'ipconfig release/renew' on the PC.
2. On the secondary router (hereafter called the AP)
a. change the default password to a minimum combination of 8 letters/numbers/symbols.
b. Change the ESSID to a unique name and make all the necessary wireless configurations.
Note: If attaching a WiFi router as an AP/switch to an existing wifi network, one should keep the ESSIDs the same for seamless roaming, or separate if one wants to manually decide which AP to connect to. Also, ensure channel separation (1-6-11 common for three devices).
3. In the AP, go to the LAN setup page:
a. Turn DHCP serving OFF.
b. Change the LAN IP of the AP from its default so that it lies within the subnet of the primary router but preferably outside the dynamic LAN IP range of the primary router. (examples below)
c. Disable or turn RIP off, if there is that option.
d. Disable or turn off Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) support (if any).
4. Plug the PC back into the wired connection and repeat the process of getting new LAN IP. A reboot of the PC may be needed.
5. Plug the AP into the router, LAN port TO LAN port directly or via switch/patch panel etc. (NOT into the WAN socket...)
6. It may be necessary to reboot one or both routers but one should be able to assign LAN IPs wirelessly and connect at this point, ensuring WiFi card setup properly.
Example:
Primary Router
LAN IP 192.168.1.1
old Dynamic DHCP Pool 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.xx
subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Will need to change Dynamic DHCP pool
new DCHP Pool 192.168.1.33 - 192.168.1.xx (for example)
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Secondary Router (our Access Point)
old LAN IP 192.168.0.1 -or any other default
Will need to change LAN IP to be within subnet of primary.
new LAN IP 192.168.1.2
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Shouldn't need a crossover cable (most routers are intelligent enogh to realise what they're connecting to)
Hope this helps...

Linksys router not seen by Airport Setup Assistant

I recently started using a linksys router instead of and airport extreme, it's working, I am able to access the internet. But, my problem is I cannot see it in the Airport set up Assistant. I have not been able to setup my Airport Express because I can't see my wireless router.
Any one have any ideas?

Bronco46, Welcome to the discussion area!
I recently started using a linksys router ... my problem is I cannot see it in the Airport set up Assistant.
The AirPort Setup Assistant and AirPort Admin Utility are ONLY for Apple's base stations and therefore won't give you access to the Linksys router.
You need to access the Linksys user's guide and follow the directions for using your browser to configure the Linksys router.
I have not been able to setup my Airport Express because I can't see my wireless router.
Configuring the AirPort Express (AX) has nothing to do with configuring the Linksys router. Configure the AX following the directions in KB 302153, AirPort Express: How to join an existing wireless network in client mode.

Please help... Linksys router and Imac help

I just switched to Mac, but I might be returning the Imac and getting a Dell or something because it's getting a little ridiculous.
My IP address on my Linksys router is not being recognized by the airport in my new Imac. It took FOREVER for me to get this to work and now it has crapped out 2 times in the last 4 days. I am about to take this new Mac back to the store and go back to a Dell.
Here is a basic description of what is happening:
When I do a diagnostic test I click on Airport and it is saying that the airport signal is fine (green dots), but it doesn't find the IP address. I select my network name that the Airport is picking up and still nothing. I can even get online by selecting a different wi-fi signal from someone that lives close to me too. It's obviously something with my Linksys router that does not work well with my Mac.
Also, even when my Mac doesn't get online, my Ps3 and 360 both still do so I know it is the computer/router that is the problem.
I try unplugging the router, modem, restarting...etc. but it just seems so wierd that it goes off like that.... It's also very annoying, because then I have to hear from my wife about that we spent $1500 on a computer that won't get online some of the time, when I can still get online on my PS3 and 360.
By the way, when I am not connected to the internet Safari will NOT let me put in the 192.168.1.1 in the address bar to get to my router settings. But I did check them from my PS3 and the "clone my MAC" thing is still enabled.
Apple's software update tells me there's no new software available for my machine, which leaves me with no idea what's causing this or how to fix it.
Any advice, solutions, or tips are greatly appreciated.
Can anyone please help me??? If this is going to be a continuous problem, I am taking the computer back and getting a new Dell or something since we mostly use the computer for the internet functions.
Anybody please help???

Let's double-check your iMac's AirPort settings ...
System Preferences > Network > AirPort
o Location: Automatic
o In the left column, verify that an AirPort option exists. If it does not, click "+" to create one. (Note: If you are unable to create an AirPort configuration, the AirPort card in your computer either doesn't exist or it is not recognized.)
o Verify that AirPort is "On." Click "Turn AirPort On" button if not.
o Ask to join new networks: (enabled)
o Show AirPort status in menu bar: (enabled)
Systems Preferences > Network > AirPort > Advanced
AirPort tab
o Remember any network this computer has joined: (enabled)
o Disconnect from wireless networks when logging out: (enabled)
o Require Administrator password to control AirPort: (disabled)
TCP/IP tab
o Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
o Configure IPv6: Off
DNS tab
o DNS Servers: <if required, add your desired DNS server IP address(es) here>
o Search Domains: <if required, add your desired DNS Search Domain(s) here>
WINS tab
o Enter desired WINS info or leave the defaults
AppleTalk tab
o Make AppleTalk Active: (disabled)
802.11X tab
o Enter desired 802.11X info or leave the defaults
Proxies tab
o Enter the desired Proxies info or leave the defaults
If you connect your iMac directly, using an Ethernet cable, to one of the LAN ports on your Linksys router, can it access the Internet now?

HELP! How do I get wireless internet on both my Ipad and Desktop? Have Linksys Router WRVS4400N. Only 1 device will work at 1 time. Something about a Learn MAC address? What should I do? Thanks! Tiggergirl

Good morning
Hi Kathy, my name is Johnnatan and I am part of the Small business Support community.
If you have an old firmware it would be a good idea to go out to Cisco.com and see if there is any firmware updates. I have looked on the site for you and I see the latest firmware is:2.0.2.1
http://www.cisco.com/cisco/software/release.html?mdfid=282414016&softwareid=282487380&release=2.0.1.3&rellifecycle=&relind=AVAILABLE&reltype=all
You can also try to reset your device to its factory settings, to reset your router please take a object that has a point and hold the reset button in on the back for "atleast" 30 seconds until the lights on the front to start flashing.
About Mac address, you can map a Static IP with a specific mac address, You can folllow these steps in order to configure it.

I'm Able to connect AE to Linksys Router: Some tTps

OK:
For several weeks (off & on) I have been trying to connect my Airport Express to my Linksys WRT54G wireless router network, but have run into several recurring bottlenecks. Well, I feel that I have busted through the dam yesterday, based on some feedback from folks, along with a lot of trial and error. Below, I address a couple of problems that keep recurring in this forum.
*Problem 1:*
My AE in no longer seen on my network.
Solution:
My AE should have its own Apple ad-hoc network, if all I have powered-on is my laptop, the AE and a set of powered speakers that the AE will stream music to.
The AE's ad-hoc network should show up in your system tray's connection window
with a name similar to "Apple Network XXXXXX" , where XXXXXX represent the AE's 6-rightmost hex digits of its 12-digit hex MAC (Media Access Control) address.
Last week, I did a complete factory reset on the AE. Yesterday, when I tried to have the laptop generate an ad-hoc network, it couldn't: it kept trying to attach to a prior network that I had created with my router (which by the way, is currently turned off), but couldn't find it. I did several more factory resets, with no luck. The AE would not generate the ad-hoc network ! I tried both, with and without an Ethernet cable running from the AE to the laptop.
Frustrated, I took a gamble and did an "intermediate" reset of the AE.
Note: The AE is wired to the laptop, plugged in, with stereo speakers connected and turned-on. Using a paper clip, I pressed-in the AE's reset button, and held it for ~10 seconds. It worked I could now see my "Apple Network XXXXXX" ad-hoc connection listed in my system tray's list of networks to connect to.
Now that I had the ad-hoc network for the AE, the question was to figure out how to add this device (the AE) to the Linksys router's wireless network.
*Problem 2:*
I'm unable to add the AE to my existing Linksys wireless network.
Solution:
I turned on the cable modem and the Linksys router, and let them boot.
At this point , I have the AE hardwired to the router via Ethernet cable.
I opened the Linksys Easy Setup (or similar name) Help tool to view what the Linksys tool could see. It saw that the laptop was connected to the router, but not the AE. Initially, the laptop was connected via Ethernet cable to the router, but I then made that a wireless connection withe the Easy Setup.
I opened Airport Utility and proceeded to configure the network for AE, via a Manual setup. Airport Utility was able to see my ad-hoc network and saw the AE, with its name "Apple Network XXXXXX".
I wanted to have the AE join my existing 64/40-bit WEP wireless network.
I had followed all of the prior advice but with no luck.
Here's the kicker:
On one of the the Airport Utility tabs:
You want to select to "Join A Wireless Network".
On the tab that has the checkboxes , check your settings:
"Remember this password in my keychain" (Optional, I have it checked)
"Set time automatically" (unchecked)
"Advertise configuration globally using Bonjour" (unchecked)
If you have the "time" and/or "Bonjour" checkboxes checked, you will get a different set of network connection types to select from under the Wireless tab, and the typical WEP settings (WEP 60/40) won't be among the choices
This is where I was having problems. If you use the above checkbox settings,
you WILL get the WEP 40 in the drop-down menu to choose from under the Wireless tab. Make sure that the password/encryption key that you use for is the same that your used for when setting-up your wireless router. You do not have to precede it with a $ sign. (Example: when you setup your WEP-40/64 connection with your router, you had to use a 10-hex digit encryption key, or provide a 5 ASCII character Passcode that would be converted into a 10-digit hex encryption key. My advice: Forget about the PassCode...just type in a 10-hex-digit key into the Key 1 slot in the router setup, and USE THIS SAME KEY in Airport Utility. It will be 10 hex digits long, where hex-digits are 0-9, and A-F.
Finish the setup, and once Airport Utility reconfigures, you will get the solid green LED on the AE. At this point disconnect the Ethernet cable.
Now, open your router's setup program and check the network. You should now see the AE on the same network as your router and laptop, wirelessly !
Open iTunes. In the lower-right corner, you should see a dropdown menu from which you may select speakers. Select your speakers by the name you gave them.
Click on any tune that you have in iTunes, and click the Play button. You should now be able to hear the tune playing out of your speakers, wirelessly !
You are no longer using the ad-hoc network. You now have the AE connected to same same wireless network that your laptop is on, via the wireless router.
Music is playing from iTunes (via AirTunes) on your laptop, though the router to the AE, to the speakers, wirelessly !

you don't mention which products you use
only ipad2 and up support mirror
and only iphone4s and up support mirror
other devices only use airplay for apps which support tvout options

LInksys Router BEFW11S4 version 2 and MacBook Pro Snow Leapord

I bought my Linksys Router Model # BEFW11SW version 2 in 2002. I bought my MacBook Pro Dec.'09. My airport works in public location with wireless networks, but not in my house. Is my router not compatible, or can I re-configure something to make it work? Thanks!

It's an old router. You may not have the latest firmware installed. The speed is 11b. At this point routers are cheap enough get a new one for your new MBP.
