I cant hook WRT54GS TO INTERNET

iVE been trying to hook up a router with a web server to internet.
I was doing ok until i set the router to a static address of 192.168.1.200
instantly i was booted off line. and unable to access router again
I tryed pressing little reset button in back and tryed to reboot and unplug everything
When i hook up router it will not get an address AND STATES Media disconnected, like it isnt even there. I went to website and tryed to download router Easy Link" tool
with no luck. It says my router is too old and i will have to get install disk?
Does anyone have install file? or what might be my prob?
How do i reset router? I pressed button over 30 seconds. Do i need to run the firm ware somehow?

Cant connect to the internet using my wrt54g

i bought the linksys wrt54g yesterday brought it home put in the setup disk and everythin was goin good until it came to step 10 and an error message came up saying: cant connect to the internet please shut off modem and turn it back on so tryed that still didnt work. so i found a thread when i searched this problem that said i had to bridge my westell 6100 modem to the router or somthin like that so i followed those steps and it still doesnt work can som1 help me please!?

Did you try to change the routers Ip address to 192.168.2.1?
I am not sure of that modem and not sure if it has a built in router ot not. Call your ISP and see if that modem is also a router running DHCP and everything else.

I updated my iPad to iOS7 and now cant hook up to wifi......help I have tried a lot of different way and no luck.

Hello RMpad,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like after updating to iOS 7 you are unable to join any wifi network.
I want to recommend these parts of the article named:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
Restart your iOS device.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
Tap and Forget this Network.
Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
Update your device to the latest version of software.
Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
If that does not resolve the issue, I would next recommend either of these 2 parts down toward the bottom depending on the symptoms you are seeing.

I can't hook into the Internet

Why can't I hook into the Internet with my iPad mini? I selected it, put in the password, but it says "connection not available." my other devices are hooked into that Internet.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

G5 won't hook up to internet

This is an intermittent problem, unfortunately, the computer will occasionally not hook into the internet on boot. Usually a reboot will solve the problem. But, yesterday, had to do two for it to work. The computer will occasionally just stop in the midst of surfing and tell me "you are not connected to the internet". The Network pane says the ethernet hookup is active. Not using airport... just ethernet router. PC using same connection never fails to connect or drops connection. Figure it must be Leopard.

Hi dremley-
Greetings and welcome to the Apple boards
Try a different port on the router and a different ethernet cable before blaming software.

WRT54GS - Slow internet when hooked up

Hi all....I have a WRT54GS (seems to be a popular unit with some issues) and here is my thing:
I hooked it up about two months ago and had no problems with it. Last week, I started having slow internet connections when the router was hooked up. I ran the cable modem straight to the PC and it was fine. I just hooked up the router again and it was horribly slow. I used testmy.net to test my speeds and my download time was about 143 times faster WITHOUT the router (with speedbooster, no less). The only thing I've done is to do a firmware upgrade to the most current version and the major problems began. I checked my setting and they all seem fine.
Does anyone have any ideas? Unfortunately I did not save a copy of the configuration before upgrading. Thanks....

Thanks for the help.
Here is what I have so far:
1. ISP is Time Warner Cable, and I am not sure of what I was setup for, but my internet connection icon in my system tray shows 100 Mbps.
2. The modem doesn't have a name brand on it that I can find, but the model is 60194E-A02. Google says it is an Ambit modem.
3. I used testmy.net for some tests last week and here is what I got (using my laptop):
      a. Wired to modem directly - download speed 773 kbps, connection 6.33 Mbps; upload speed 18kbps, connection 0.1 Mbps
      b. Using router - connection was so slow it times out.
So I hooked it to my desktop PC, and ran the tests:
      a. Direct to modem:
Download Connection is:: 7155 Kbps about 7.16 Mbps (tested with 12160 kB)
Download Speed is:: 873 kB/s
Upload Connection is:: 162 Kbps about 0.2 Mbps (tested with 386 kB)
Upload Speed is:: 20 kB/s
     b. Using router:
Download Connection is:: 45 Kbps about 0.05 Mbps (tested with 97 kB)
Download Speed is:: 5 kB/s
Upload Connection is:: 17 Kbps about 0 Mbps (tested with 97 kB)
Upload Speed is:: 2 kB/s
Only other thing I can think of is that I put the new modem beside the router. Earlier today I put the modem back where it was, about three feet away. It actually seems to have helped. Is there a true phenomenon when the units are side-by-side?
Thanks...Rick Ferguson

Wrt54gs loses internet connection when using P2P Ares

I have a wrt54gs v5 and I've installed the latest firmware and reset back to factory then reconfigured. Whenever Ares is started all other computers (wired or wireless) lose their inet connection. Within 2-5 minutes of stopping Ares everything starts working again. I've checked Ares and it's set to am max of 10 connections.
I've hooked up my old befsx41 and it works fine but I need the wireless. Both of these are talking to a befcmu10 cable modem. I've never had problems with linksys before but from what I'm seeing on the forums the wrt54xxx doesn't seem to be of the same quality as the oldser stuff. Anyone know of any specific versions that fix this?
(Mod Note: Edited for guideline compliance. Thanks!)
Message Edited by Maximus on 07-04-2007 02:13 PM

Since your BEF works with P2P, why don't you simply convert your WRT into a WAP (wireless access point). This way you will use the wireless of the WRT, while using the BEF to handle all the routing chores.
To do this, setup the BEF as your primary router.
Then wire one computer to port 1 (not the Internet port) on the WRT. (Note: Disconnect everything else from the WRT at this time.)
Then in the WRT do the following:
Turn off the DHCP server.
Set the "Local IP address" to 192.168.1.2 (assuming no other device on your network is using this fixed LAN IP address, and assuming the BEF is set to use the 192.168.1.x address space.)
Save your settings. Power down the WRT.
Next, connect any numbered port on the WRT to any numbered port on the BEF. Do not connect anything to the Internet port on the WRT.
The BEF will control your router settings (DHCP server, port forwarding, etc.)
The WRT will control your wireless settings.
Please let me know whether this setup allows your P2P to work properly.

WRT54G Router - Internet connection issues using the Ipod touch

Ok, first - here is my setup. I've got the router hooked into the modem, with the desktop computer hooked directly into the router. I've got my laptop running off wireless internet, and I've got an ethernet cable connecting through my laptop to an xbox for xbox live connection. I recently just got an iPod touch, and I've come to realize that whenever I'm on the iPod, it messes with the internet on the desktop computer and on the xbox, but not the laptop really.. it makes the internet really slow, or sometimes it doesn't work at all, especially on the xbox. Is there anything I can change to make these all work at the same time? Or is this too many connections or what? Please help. thanx.
(running windows vista home premium, WRT54G router, pretty much beginner status, though I can follow directions easily : ] )
Also, the internet always works on the ipod, it seems as though the ipod is 'taking over' the internet.. it doesn't lose it while in the area, yet the other computers and xbox does at times..
Message Edited by jmaxey0122 on 12-16-2009 05:27 AM

You might be facing the problem, because the Ipod and your Desktop computer must be having the same IP address thats the reason whenever your IPod is connected to your Network, your Desktop must be getting disconnected. Check the IP address of your IPOD and of your Desktop Computer.
First thing which you need to check, if the Physical connections are done properly. Connect the Modem to the Internet Port of the Linksys Router and then Connect the computer to the LAN Port No.1. On your Desktop computer login to the setup page of your Router and click on the Status tab and check "Internet IP address"
If required you can Re-Set your Router and Re-configure all the settings on your Router from the scratch.

WRT54G no internet connection issue

Hi,
      I've been using a WRT54G router for a few years and it's worked fine until now. I recently installed AVG8.5 on to my computer and now the router can't find the internet connection. I have my compture wired to it.
      I hooked the mode directly up to my computer to make sure the modem wasn't the issue and it worked fine. I checked to make sure the local settings were on autodect and the lights on the router are all lit correctly. I have uninstalled AVG8.5 and the router still keeps saying that it cannot detect an internet connection. I've tried reseting the router and reinstalling the software, but no dice.
      I did manage to get it to broadcast its SSID, but when I tried to connect wireless it won't allow anything to connect to it. So, I'm assuming something is blocking it on my machine. Any advice? Thanks!
                              -Ashes

After resetting the router I assume the router is not properly confiured and that's the reason you have lost the Internet connection on all the computers...
You should leave the AVG8.5 un-installed and re-configure your router...
