Help in choosing a router to connect our Wii

We have a 2,100sq ft house. We currently have the Linksys E1000 router and cannot connect our Wii to the internet. The router is downstairs w/our desktop @ one end of the house. The Wii is in our room over the garage @ the other end of the house. I can connect the Wii to the router, just cant get on the itnernet using the Wii to get Netflix, play online etc. I'm thinking that maybe our router isn't strong enough. I didn't think we had a "large" house and this router would work. Hubby & I are not the best w/technology so any suggestions you can offer would be really appreciated.

If it can connect to the network and the signal strength is good (you will see it in the signal strength indicator in the Wii menu), then it's just your router settings that need to be configured to work with the Wii.

Please help me choose a technology to connect !

Hi, I am a MSc (Software Development) student from University of Huddersfield, UK. I have to submit a final year project proposal by the end of July.
My real client is a pharmaceutical company with many offices in many cities. They maintain a central database in one city. The need is to develop a means of accessing this database via a Java technology over the Internet as well as Intranet. The use of applets and web pages is discouraged by the non-technical company advisors. I wonder what can be the solution ?? Please guide me in the right direction and kindly point a right Java technology to be used in a Java Application for this need.
The relevant detail is:
1). Back end Database is in ORACLE.
2). Front END is supposed to be an Internet + Intranet enabled Application.
3). The choice of technologies to be considered:
RMI ??? (may be a rediculous question)
EJ Beans ??
Servelets ??
What should I think of ?? Please help me out as the time to decide is slipping out of my hands.
Regards,
Shahzad.

The use of applets
and web pages is discouraged by the non-technical
company advisors. I wonder what can be the solution ??You sure? That pretty much rules out any normal 'web' solution. Maybe they want a web solution which does not use applets, but other web technologies are ok.
If not...
The only thing left is a client-server application. Every client box will have to have the client application installed.
This means that you now have to implement not only a client solution but you will also have to create an install and handle security yourself.
The security problems are rather large. The server will have to have a port which is open to the internet. Transmissions will have to use encryption just to keep the kiddie-hackers out.

HELP I have a wireless Linksys router WRT54G connected th...

HELP I have a wireless Linksys router WRT54G connected through my cable company broadband modem on a Mac. I have another computer to which I installed wireless capability because it didn't come with it. This required attching some piece of equipment to the back of the PC which enabled it to get on the internet without another cable modem. My question is this. If I get an iphone or a laptop(with built in wireless ability) will I automatically be able to go on the web because of the router on the Mac.

yes certainly... if you get any wireless device in network that would certainly connects to a wireless n/w of router...

1st reset the router back to it's default settings by pressing the reset button at the back of the router for 20-30 seconds. Then unplug the power of the router for 10 seconds and plug it back in.
Then to reconfigure the router from scratch including setting up your wireless settings... I recommend using a fairly easy to use software called EasyLink Connect. You can download this off the internet (by bypassing the router and connecting to the modem) from this website: www.linksys.com/easy

Trying to connect our exercise bike to our wireless network. It sees the network, but once pass phrase is put in, it won't connect. Any suggestions? We have an Airport Extreme.

I am trying to connect our exercise bike to our wireless network. It sees the network, but once pass phrase is put in, it won't connect. Their tech support said the problem is with the router and we may need to open ports 80, 443 and 4348. We have an AirPort Extreme and I scanned for open ports and found 80 already open but the others are not. Tried using Port Mapping, putting the port number 443 in both the Public UDP and TCP fields and the Private UDP and TCP fields also. The Private IP address defaulted to 10.0.1.201 which is right outside of the DHCP range. Will this be the IP of the bike or should I change it to something else? Are the values I put in the fields totally wrong? Bike is still not connecting. Thanks for any help!

Here's an update:
Now the light is not blinking. It's a solid, consistant green. I don't know if it helps to narrow it down or anything, but I just figured I'd mention it.

Help to configure 2911 router

Hi All,
My company recently order a new circuit for our VoIP use and we have a Cisco 2911 router.
The new circuit is terminated with a ethernet handoff. I have never configure a router direct connect to ISP circuit before, please help!
Following details is give by the ISP:
WAN IP
IPv4 Network Address: X.X.6.204/30
IPv4 Customer Address: X.X.6.206/30
IPv4 PE Interface Address: X.X.6.205/30
LAN IP
IPv4 Static Routing : X.X.159.0/29
Default GATEWAY: X.X.159.1
Available Addresses: X.X.159.2 - X.X.159.6
Subnetmask: 255.255.255.248
VLAN Tagging :Transparent
DNS Server: 198.6.100.6, 198.6.1.125

Hi,
On the circuit (interface) connecting to your provider you need to add this IP
X.X.6.206/30
example:
interface f0/0
ip address X.X.6.206 255.255.255.252
no sh
On the interface connecting to your lan you need to add this IP:
X.X.159.1
example:
interface f0/1
ip address X.X.159.1 255.255.255.248
no sh
below range is used for your LAN side (PC, server, etc..) with default gateway being X.X.159.1 255.255.255.248
X.X.159.2 - X.X.159.6

Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Need help regarding Cisco 1841 Router

hello everyone , i am need of help regarding configuring of FE 0/1 port. our company have a cisco 1841 router. The serial 0/0/0 is connected with VSAT for internet. The FE 0/0 is connected to switch(LAN) through which net connectivity is provided to all users. Recently a new VSAT has been installed at our site,with different IP series. So every time we want to switch between the two net connectivity we need to change the entire IP configuration of all users, which in turn prohibits the users from accessing the printers,data servers etc which are been set to our existing IP series. So, my idea was to configure the FE 0/1, so that just by changing the DNS will help us providing internet along with all other devices without changing the entire IP series. The new VSAT modem has a lan cable which can be connected to FE 0/1. Can any one help out in solving the problem. Our existing IP series is 192.168.3.1..... and the new VSAT series is 10.205.74.1......

Do I understand correctly that you will have 20 remote users who will telnet to the 2511 and from the 2511 will use reverse telnet to access the console of router1, router2, router3, etc which have their console ports connected to async ports of the 2511? If that understanding is correct then the firewall only needs to open TCP port 23 for telnet. The other ports (2001, 2002, etc) are between the 2511 and router1, router2, etc and will not be seen by the firewall. If my understanding is not correct then please clarify.
I do not believe that you will find an image for the 2500 that supports SSH.

Issue with 2wire dsl router when connecting power pc g4 via ethernet

Issue with 2wire dsl router when connecting power pc g4 via ethernet. The 2wire will keep resetting. When I connect my macbook pro via ethernet to the 2wire all is ok, but as soon as i connect the power pc. . . .reset. I have emailed 2wire support. They recommended using a different patch cable. Tried that.. .. anyone else having this issue???? Any help would be appreciated. . .

Search the discussions for issues with 2wire dsl routers. This has come up before in a discussion I've been involved with, but probably not to do with the MDD. I do remember it being a design issue with the router, something that was done to it before dispatch.
Let us know if you can't find it and we'll have a look.
If you afford it, bin the 2wire and go buy something decent like a Netgear.

I just purchased an Apple TV. I have a pc running windows 7. It is connected to a router and the router is connected to a wireless router. I connect my iPhone, iPad and apple tv to wireless network but do not know how to put the pc on the wifi network

I just purchased an Apple TV. I have a pc running windows 7. It is connected to a router and the router is connected to a wireless router. I connect my iPhone, iPad and apple tv to wireless network but do not know how to put the pc on the wifi network so the Apple TV can do home share.

I don't mean to be facetious but sometimes the simplest things are overlooked. To connect to your library you have to have the computer where the iTunes library is located running and with iTunes open. It also needs to be on the same network. My network is dual band and works with either stream but a friend of mine does not. He has to set the computer and the Apple TV to the same band. Hope this helps.

We traded our home internet service for a Sprint Hot Spot. The hot spot does not have an ethernet port to connect through. Can we connect our time capsule to the wireless hot spot?

Hello, we switched our home internet service from an ethernet modem to a wireless hot spot.
Do you know if there is a way to connect our time capsule to the hot spot?
Everything I read only suggests connecting through an ethernet cable. I'm hoping there is a way to do this.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!!!

No you can't join a wireless hotspot with a Time Capsule directly via it's 'join' option (tried and failed - well to be exact it kinda works but the Time Capsule's ethernet ports no longer work).
What you can do is buy an airport express and use it's 'join' option to connect to the iPhone's hotspot. Then you connect the airport express via ethernet to the time capsule (in bridge-mode).
You can then connect your computers to the time capsule via ethernet or use it's wireless function to set up wireless network (with a different name to that of the hotspot) that your wifi stuff can connect to.

Router Wont connect my Xbox 360

Hey, I have a Cisco E2000 and I have multiple devises that work but not my xbox 360.
I have
2 computers
2 iphone 4s
2 ipods
iphone 3gs
They all connect to the internet fine. My Xbox 360 never connected.
the xbox can connect to the router. Then the router cannot connect to the internet.
Please help me!

You mentioned that the xbox can connect to the router. Is it connected wirelessly to the network or wired to the router? What excatly do you mean it won't connect? You are unable to connect to the network or to the internet? Is your concern with NAT? If it is already connected to the network then there is no problem with the router (as what you have posted other devices are working, it shows that router is working fine). You might need to forward ports in order for you to use or connect to xbox live. And if it still won't work with the router, connect your xbox directly to the modem and test your connection. If still not working, contact your service provider. But try the ports first.

Error: Your NAT type is set to strict (or moderate)

Connecting my Wii to my WIRED router

I have broadband wired connection but all the directions for connecting my wii are for wireless connections. I purchased a USB Ethernet Adapter for my wii and have connected it to my computers ethernet port on the router but I cannot get the wii connected online. Can anyone steer me in the right direction for setting this up?

how much does a wireless router cost and is it an extra cost on my bill to use it?? Prices on wireless routers vary as seen here on this link.
CLICK HERE There is no monthly charge, essentially you purchase the router and conect it to your modem. It's yours. You will want to make sure the one you choose has 4 ports on the back and is wireless B and wireless G compatable. Personally I like Linksys and D-Link routers.
Does it fit into the ethernet port of the modem? Yes, using an ethernet cord (cat5)
Have you ever not been able to get online with your wii with it? I can always get on...no problems.
What else can it be used with? I presume we're talking about the wireless router? You can use it with laptops, or if you get a ps3 down the road, you can use it for that also.
