Help I have a  BEFW11S4 router and my labtop wont connect...

Help I have a  BEFW11S4 router and my labtop wont connect to the internet but my desk top is connected. I called for Tech. support and they wanna charge me $30 to tell me to go to a website to reset settings. I am not paying $30 thats insane just for tech. support.
Info:
All the lights on my router & modem are solid green.
My desk top is connected.
How to I connect my laptop? any suggestions.
they usually send you to the 192.168.1.1 or something similar. I forget how to ping also so I couldn't check that.
(Mod Note: Edited for guideline compliance. Thanks!)

I changed the channels mine was set on 6 when I went into setup. My internet connection is set to PPPoE   It didnt say anything that said " beacon interval" or "RTS and Fragmentation threshold"  where would I find that at??
Anyway my wireless computer can connect online with excellent strength but my desktop will not connect. I disconnected the router and pluged the computer into the modemn and I had internet access although my signal was not great. All my lights are solid.
Should I bite the bullet and just go get a new router??

  • Now that I have a new vista computer my labtop wont connect to internet

    I just got a new HP computer with Vista on it. At first I was able to get internet connection on my labtop, now I cannot and if I leave my WRT54 G  Version 6  wireless router  plugged in I cant access the internet  on my computer as well. when it is plugged in it shows the reception on my labtop and even connects but the internet does not work I cannot view any pages.  I put in the startup disk it came with but it wont install all the way and I tried to download firmware but it wont open in PDF as a BIN file.  I think this is because of the vista. I have reseted the router and the modem but nothing works now. at first if I reseted them i would get internet access but now I cannot.  I would gladly appreciate any advice on how to solve the problem.
                                      Thank You

    The .bin file is the firmware.  When you access your router and go to flash the firmware to direct it to where ever that .bin file then flash it.  I am guessing you have a cable modem?  Try pluging into the modem with a cat5e cable and see if you can get online.  If you can then plug the router back in then plug you pc in and rreconfigure your SSID/security/password  and the rest of the settings you need.  Then unplug you pc and try connecting with the wireless.

    ok i need lots of help here... i have a WRT54G router and trying to hard wire a computer to it and wirelessly connect to a laptop... i have dsl internet connection... the power light is blinking constintly and when i try to setup the router the default password doesnt work already tried to reset the router and that didnt help... any thoughts> thanks

    the power led blinking all the time can be caused by a corrupt firmware, or a defective power adapter,  try doing a hard reset, you may need to do it a couple of times, and then power down both the modem and router.
    after a couple minutes, power up the modem, wait for the link led lights up, then power up the router and look for it to link up with the modem, at this time the power led on the router should be on solid if all is ok.
    if it still don't light solid, you may need to do a firmware update, or the router is defective.

    Hello shahnaztech
    They probably could be related. Start with the articles below to troubleshoot issues with Wi-Fi as well as making sure that the router is using the recommended settings.

    I havea WRT350N Wireless Router and the DynDNS Service is not
    resolving the correct Internet IP Address, is resolving to a local IP and
    I see it on the DDNS Page on my Router Setup Screen.  I'm
    trying to connect to my DVR from a Remote Site with my DynDNS
    Client in my computer but I could not do it.  Port 80 (my DVR WAN
    Port) is Open and redirected to my DVR local IP, my DynDNS Account
    is working fine but theres no way that I could access my DVR or even
    my Router if I activate the Remote Management Capabilities.

    The best source to ask is HughesNet. According to their web site the HNS7000S is a router. Instructions how to set up a home network can be found here.
    I cannot find instructions how to set up DDNS on the HN70000S router. The suggested setup in the KB article link above won't help you with that either. I don't know whether it is possible with HughesNet to put the router into bridge mode and set up the WRT for internet. It may not be possible at all. But you have to check with HughesNet.

    Hi P.Rose,
    If you're unable to connect to the iTunes Store, try these steps:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

  • I have an iphone 4s, and i can not connect to any wirless router through wifi??

    i have an iphone 4s and i can not connect to any wirless router using wifi, the only way it to put it in the freezer for a few minutes and the i only get like 5 minutes of wifi time and the the connection drops again and the phone can not even recognize the network??
    any help??!!

    Seriously...and where did you get this tech tip? You do realize that all iPhone 4S's are still under warranty, although there's a very good chance your freezer trick has tripped a moisture sensor, thus voiding your warranty. Make an appointment at an Apple store, but be prepared for bad news. Good luck.

    I have a tesco router and an external hard drive attached to it as a network drive (shared) for my macbook and MB-Air. Have no problems with my MB accessing it, but with MB-AIR it says -  'the version of the server you are trying to connect to is not supported. pls contact your system administrator to resolve the problem'. MB-Air uses maverick downloaded yesterday - upgrade from mountain lion. MB uses snow leopard still, as i am quite used to it and am thinking of upgrade if mavericks work fine on air. Also have parallel on snow leopard but it is no longer supported according to mac website - if i upgrade am i going to lose my parallel and will have to buy a new one!!!

    Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
    In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think?

  • Why is it that Apple have no interest in helping I have a iPhone 4S and since updating to ISO 7.0.4 I have no wifi at all told me it's a hardware issue and I will be charged for the repair sick of it what a scam

    Why is it that Apple have no interest in helping I have a iPhone 4S and since updating to ISO 7.0.4 I have no wifi at all told me it's a hardware issue and I will be charged for the repair as it's just over a yr old so I've got a 24 month contract so 12 months with a phone that is not working right I have read loads of other people that have the same problem so how can they put it down to the phone and when asked where to take it was told to google it not happy at all apple u need to sort it out never again am I buying anything for yourselfs again DISTGUSTED would be an understatement

    No joy at all they just keep saying it's the phone but was fine before update and @metasolaray why should I pay for extra cover when the fault is not the phone but the update they have put out for everyone to install and I am far from being the only person as there is hundreds of people going through the same with this update and it's not been the first time they messed it up

    Apple should take resonsibility for this, otherwise they will lose lots of loyal customers. I have moved away from the ipad due to expense and am now very tempted to do so away from the iphone. Selling a product that prompts an update that breaks the phone is not good.

    Have had the same issues with iPhone 4S since the upgrade.  No wifi button, battery draining every 8 hours with no use, phone shutting on & off for no reason at all.  I gave in and tried the hair dryer method.  Turned the phone off and hel d the dryer over the camera lense area for one minute.  Turned the phone back on and to my shock, had wifi button back again.  That was 2 days ago.  Battery is lasting normal amount of time again and I can use wifi again!  Hopefully this will last.  I know it doesn't work for everyone but it doesn't hurt to try.  Much better than spending the $200 at the Apple store, which by the way, the genius said Apple is aware of the problems but there is nothing they can do.

    Having the same issue: iOS 7.0.2 with no WiFi / poor Battery stamina and really slow software experience when opening several options at Settings icon.
    Apple care agent contacted me and we try all alternatives to isolate and detect if this is regarding a hardware problem. Of course they told me it is. Too sad. My phone is in immaculate condition.
    My mother has an Iphone, my father has an Iphone, my 2 sisters have Iphones, my brother, wife and daugther... we all have Iphones. Mine's the only one with this fault (my personal experience: fail prob is 12,5% -1 out of 8).
    At this point, I'm evaluating to stop buying apple products for fear that in the future the same will happen with some "premium" product that ultimately they are not.
    Too sad, sorry but this is too much.

    I got my 4s in August 2012, as an upgrade on my Vodafone contract Following the installation of IOS 7 I also experienced greying out of wifi and bluetooth. I tried various options suggested on forums however none worked. I took my phone to Vodafone who told me it was a problem they were aware of but couldn't do anything about as Apple had to deal with it. I took it to my nearest Apple store (60 miles round trip!) to be told it was not their responsibility, it was Vodafone's - something to do with consumer law! They also said I would have to pay £160 for a replacement phone as it couldn't be repaired. The 'Genius' was very cagey about it being a common problem by the way!! Back to Vodafone who said it was not their responsibility so back to Apple. This time I spoke with a Manager who told me in not so many words that it was an issue and agreed to halve the replacement cost of £160 to £80. By this time I just wanted it sorted to reluctantly paid £80 for a replacment phone. Seeing as this is CLEARLY a design fault, Apple should have replaced it free of charge. This experience just confirms what I am reading in lots of places about the Apple Company. I was going to buy an iPad but have decided not to now. I shall NOT be replacing the iphone when my contract is up. I too will be writing to BBC Watchdog.

    You will probably be told that the solution is a replacement phone. Ask to speak to a Manager and insist on getting it at a lower price. I did this and got it at 50% of the usual repacement cost. Still not ideal but at least it saves you a bit of the money you shouldn't have to pay in the first place!

    I depend alot on my Iphone and this Wifi greyed out issue is really getting to me!! This caused me to lose some business, but I'm sure I will make up for that in Andriod World. Switching back to andriod should have never switched to apple in the first place.

    4s owner in the same boat as everyone else.
    I setup a service call with apple on Monday this week and was told it's quite a common hardware failure. When I asked why I should be paying for a new phone I was advised to book an appointment in store. Well I've just returned from my appointment with a "genius" who told me that when the update is installing if any component is weak when installing it will be permanently disabled.  Was then told £150 for a new phone which I declined.
    I've had  iPhones for 4 years now but due to this issue and apple washing their hands of any responsibility it will be my last.
    Disappointed that a premium product has such poor backup from the manufacturer. If it was only my phone and not thousands of others I'd have probably paid for a new phone but I'll never give apple another penny again.
