Hooking up a wireless router.

I am hooking up a wireless n router. The setup wizard is asking me what type of internet connection the verizon router uses (cable modem, fixed-ip, PPPoE, PPTP, or L2TP). Thanks for your help.

what are you hooking up the router to?
The ONT?
A LAN port on the  VZ router via the wireless router WAN port?

  • Issues hooking a WRT350N Wireless Router to a SE587 Siemen Wireless modem

    I'm having an issue with my newly both WRT350N wireless router. I had my internet hooked up today, with no problems. Rather than sending a typical modem (which might be the entire cause of the issue), they sent me a SE587 Wireless Gateway Siemen Modem. Basically i get through almost the entire installation cd for the setup of the router, when it tells me theres no internet connection, and asks me to retry while unplugging and re-plugging the modem. To no success has this resolved my issue. But here's the thing. When i hook the modem to my PC, im instanly connected, no problem there. When I hook the cables to the Router, the four solid lights come on. (Power, ETHERNET (1,2,3,4), Internet, and Wireless. So i know that the internet is there, and its getting to the router, but the connection is not making it to the PC, where i find myself with limited connectivity. Now some Telus representative was spewing that i can't have the same IP addresses on the modem and router. Fine. Now I attempted to get the internet connection through DHCP, Static IP, PPoE. And the same problem persists. For my modem the info is as follows: IPv4: 192.168.1.100 Subnet: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway: 192.168.1.254 DNS: 192.168.1.254 When i set the settings for my router through static IP, i put the info as follows: IP address: 192.168.1.102 subnet: 255.255.255.0 default gateway: 192.168.1.254 DNS: 192.168.1.254 And i'm still in the same position. What am i doing wrong?

    The siemens modems that I've encountered usually have a 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.254. You will need to disconnect it from the router and change the router's address to a different range (ie 192.168.2.1).
    The box said windows xp or better... So I installed Linux!

  • How do I connect my laptop to my Linksys wireless router through the internal wireless card?

    I just purchased a gateway laptop and was trying to hook my Linksys wireless router up to it. Ive gotten it hooked up but only through the secondary device (that catches the signal)... I was wondering if there is anyway that I could make my internal wireless internet card a point or no? Can I only connect it to the USB network adapter or is there really a way to go COMPLETELY wireless? Thank you for your time...

    Is your internal wireless card enabled? Go to device manager and make sure it is enabled.

  • Wireless Router WRT54G

    Hello,
    Can someone assist me. I hooked my my wireless router and now when I connect to Windows Live Messenger and do Request Remote Assistance it will not work at all. I connect through there and someone can help me with my pc problems. I did a port forward to port 3389 for messenger but it still will not go through. If someone knows what I need to do to get this to work, I would appreciate it. I am sure it is something in the settings but not sure what I need to adjust. thanks.

    The easiest way to do it is to set that pc up as a DMZ.  That opens all port to that pc which opens it for attack.  Now its only a temporary fix but will allow remote acess .

Well i tryed to get on it , it wouldnt let me on so i dont know why and how . there might be a drivers or something please contact me please Thanks !

    hi....assuming that your regular router is working when hooked up to the modem.....here is what u will need to do on the linksys wireless ...... hardwire the linksys to any PC....access the setup page of the linksys using http://192.168.1.1 "admin" is the default password....( u don;t need the CD) ..... once in the setup page ......change the IP address of the linksys in the range of the first router....and disable the DHCP of the linksys as well.....save settings and then connect the linksys to the first router.....however when u do so , do not use the internet ports of the Linksys, use one of the LAN ports.....now check if u are able to go online
    Let me know if this works for u.

  • Numbers on Wireless Router do not light up

    I have hooked up my wireless router to my cable modem and my computer. I plugged the ethernet into the back of the router and the numbers do not light up. The internet and power light up but not the number. Also when I try to connect to my lab top through the wireless router it says I am connected but it will not allow me to open any web pages? Why is this?

    Use this LINK as a reference and make sure your router is configured correctly with a PC hard wired (firmly seated) to the number one port of your router.  If you can not access your router go to this LINK and download the tftp.exe file for your routers model and try to flash the firmware.

  • I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac.  The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. Any tips on how to do this?

    I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac.  The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. I installed the current Bonjour printer services software on the Windows machine, and separately installed the driver software for the Epson printer on the WIndows machine.  Running the bonjour wizard, I get an alert saying 'I don't have sufficient access to my computer to connect to the selected printer'.
    The printer has 'sharing' turned on from the Mac end; this works with a Powerbook via the wireless connection.  Sharing is also turned on in the Windows printer control panel for this printer (under properties).  The Mac is a G5 running 10.5.8.  When I try to print a page from the Windows machine it gets hung in the print queue.
    Any advice how to proceed would be appreciated!
    thx,

  • Need help hooking up my daughters computer on my wireless router.

    I am totally new to the wireless world.  I just bought a lynksys Wireless-G WRT54G wireless router.  I hooked my new Dell XPS400 via the wired connection and my son's Dell inspiron notebook up via wireless.  My daughter just got back from Hong Kong with a Toshiba computer and it sees my wireless network but it is asking for different information than my son's computer did.  All I had to do with his was give the Key code and reboot the computer and he was able to get right on.  Her computer is asking for the "Network Name (SSID)", "Network Authentication" and "Data Encryption", none of which am I sure what it wants.  The only block calling for a key # is grayed out.
    Is there anyone who might can give me some guidance on this?
    Thanks

    Family sharing is only iOS 8 (and later)
    I recommend that you
    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card

    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>GameCenter
    and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.

  • Can you hook a jetpack to a wireless router

    can you hook a jetpack up to a wireless router

    http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/377853-wireless-router-as-a-bridge-to-verizon-jet-pack
    It can be done. However I normally use my broadband network and a wireless repeater. I use Netgear and Belkin, both work together nicely and you can place repeaters all over your home and property.
    Additionally on my broadband modem I have opened up a WiFi connection for emergency access. Its buttoned up with high security but I access WiFi on the Netgear R6300 both wireless and hard connect(RJ-45) and through the Belkin Repeater both WiFi and hard connect (RJ-45) and I use my broadband modem/WiFi as both WiFi and hard connect (RJ-45) with absolutely no interference.
    The basic principle is or should be the same with the jetpack as used as a pass through . See the link above.
    Good Luck

  • Hooking up/configuring a WRT54G2 wireless router to my wired modem/router.

    Problem description: I have bought a wireless router (Linksys WRT54G2) in order to connect it to my ADSL2+ modem/router (a TP-Link TD8840) to provide wireless internet access to my iPhone and laptop. I only intend to power on the wireless router when I need it, not have it on all the time wasting electricity.
    Attempted fixes: Configuring the WRT54G2 per the install CD, but this appears to mean I must have my wireless router always powered on in order to access the internet even when I'm not using the wireless. Ideally I just want to turn on the wireless router as and when I need it.
    Operating system: Windows XP Pro (32-bit) SP3.
    So, as my description says, I bought a WRT54G2 so I can browse the web on my iPhone using my DSL connection rather than the cellular (3G) network. I currently have the WRT54G2 plugged in from one of its four ethernet ports to an ethernet port on my wired modem/router. The IP of my modem/router is 192.168.1.1, which also appears to be the default ip for the WRT54G2 So I can't access my WRT54G2's admin screen to properly set up the network.
    At this point I feel as if I should reset the WRT54G2 to factory settings and start from scratch, but I lack a coherent set of instructions to point me on my way. It's a bit frustrating because I'm pretty good with computers generally, but networking obviously is not my thing. Can anyone please help

    Hi modeski,
    To setup your WRT54G2 router and make it work with your modem/router there, chnage first the IP of the WRT54G2 from  192.168.1.1 to 192.168.2.1 before you connect it to the modem/router.
    In other words, you are cascading two routers.
    Hope this help!  

  • HT1331 I just bought a airport wireless router I have a time warner cable modem. I have hook up the modem correctly to my new apple airport router and my modem is not working with the apple airport router. what do i need to do?

    I just bought a airport wireless route and I have a time warner modem. My problem is my modem is not connecting to my apple airport router. What do I need to do?

    Power cycle the cable modem.. you may try leaving it off 5min.. might be enough.. sometimes you need 15min or even longer.. Followed by power cycle of the AE.
    Nothing else should be connected to the modem.. except the router that will get the public IP as they only hand out ONE>

  • No Problem hooking up Vista laptop with WRT110 Wireless Router but can not get XP laptop to see it

    I purchased a WRT110 Linksys wireless router this afternoon and had no problem configuring it for my wired desktp and my wireless Vista laptop, but my Acer XP wireless laptop will not even see the network.  I have tried WEP, WAP, and no security, but I can see the neighbors routers but I can not see mine.  My XP laptop is an Acer 3680-2574 with a  Broadcom 802.11g network adapter.

    Is the SSID enabled on the router ?
