If you setup your own password for router while installing it for the first time then, you need to type that password.If your password doesnot work either...then you need to Press and hold the reset button for 20 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 20 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...
If your Internet Service Providor is Cable follow this link
If your Internet Service Providor is DSL follow this link
You can try this wireless settings also...
Under the wireless tab...Wireless Network mode should be mixed...Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...Set the Wireless channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings..
For Wireless Security : -
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network.
NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...

    Hi,
    Since you already have one copy activated the serial number must be logged in your account details - I would first check that the one logged and the one you are attempting to enter are the same.
    You can check your account details by going to www.adobe.com and clicking on Manage Account. You need to sign in with your Adobe Id and then click on View All under Plans & Products. Next click on View your products and after a while it should produce your list.
    If there is a problem with the serial number, only Adobe can help you there (we are just users). Please see the response in this thread
    First of all, I would have to say that getting in touch with you is a nightmare and I am not at all happy that I can't just email or live chat with someone who can help!  I am not a technical person, I just want to be able to use Photoshop Elements and ge

  • I have Connection Problems with the Linksys WRT400N Router!

    I bought the Linksys WRT400N Dual Band Router in January 2010, and had nothing but problems with it keeping renewing the IP Address for the internet. I have Road Runner High Speed Cable Internet, and they can’t help me with this support, I tried to call Linksys about 5 times and they are no real help, all I get is pay by credit card after talking to someone for a few minutes.
    The problem is I can’t connect to the internet but can only connect to my Network Printer or Home Network. It won’t renew the IP Address for the internet until I reboot the router. I had this problem Connecting it Wired and Wirelessly I have a Linksys WUSB600N version 2 Wireless Adapter.

    Check if you have this configuration. Don't miss the MAC Address Cloning.

  • Huge problems with both Linksys site and HND

    Hello,
    As business user of CISCO products and for @home using Linksys by cisco WRT610N with the Mediahub ive always been a huge fan of your products and still support it every day, however, i have been talking 3 times over chat support now about the 2 problems i have and it seems no one understands what is going on.
    1) I updated the firmware on my WRT610N to the latest from january 2009, succesfull
    2) I installed LELA and run the Home Network Defender setup, product installed, got a serialkey
    3) I click on a device change its security settings and then : PRODUCT NOT ACTIVATED.
    Trying to log  in over and over doesnt solve anything and reinstalling i tried already 3x aswell, i had to use a different emailadress now everytime, very annoying.
    Apart from that, i couldnt use my original login on your site anymore i am getting the request a new password emails with a new pass and link but when i then try to login, it keeps saying that the information is not correct, over and over, repeated the process already 10x, no difference.
    Therefor im now using a brand new registed username so i can at least post about my problems and hope Linksys (CISCO) will fix these issues so we can all make sure things work perfectly as with Cisco business products.
    I hope to hear from anyone asap as i wanna get my problems solved soon,
    Kind regards,

  • Problems with my LinkSys wireless routers since getting AT&T u-verse

    I recently installed AT&T u-verse. Every since it's hit or miss on whether I can connect to my two linksys wireless routers. Sometimes it connects fine but other times I can try for hours and never obtain an IP address. I never have a problem connecting to the 2wire wireless router which was installed when u-verse was installed but it doesn't have coverage for my whole house.
    The AT@T tech says the 2Wire has problems with routers being configured behind their router??? He said that I need to set my Linksys wireless routers up as access points???
    Anyone have any suggestions on what to try? Anyone else have issues like this after u-verse was installed?
    Thanks

    I've had AT&T U-verse since March, and I wish it wasn't the best option in my area. I have been through 3 of those 2-Wire Gateways and as best I can track down it's that DHCP Server. I have a BEFSR41v3 (and yes, I am NOT using the WAN port, just the switch at IP 192.168.1.10) and a WAP54G (IP 192.168.1.11) using WPA2-PSK and have been using for years now. AT&T tried telling me it was my wireless devices, which strangely enough worked PERFECTLY fine on my Linksys hardware with the same SSID/Key when I was with TWC. My wireless devices would work fine for a while, then gradually start having problems until by 2 weeks they are completely unable to negotiate an IP from the DHCP. Called AT&T, they reset the gateway, and everything works for 2 more weeks. Most my computers (wired or WiFi) are manually IP configured. Only my laptop (also used on a college WiFi) and visitors use the DHCP server (and the AT&T Boxes).  THUS far I've been reasonably successful by limiting the AT&T Gateway to 3 addresses for my Boxes, letting it issue them to the TV's, then adding my linksys router (ignoring the WAN port and using DHCP on with an allocation of 15 addresses) and setting the Linksys WAP to the #4 port. This weird setup now gets short lasting fits in the form of "Limited Connectivity" for my WiFi devices using Dyamic IP.  It can still access the LAN perfect, only that device has no Internet Access, and Windows says i'm being blocked by a Firewall. It self resolves in a few minutes without me doing anything and it MIGHT come once or so a month, or until they run another update which seems to ALWAYS reset that gateway (I've given up changing the password and now keep a txt on every system since it seems to reset at least monthly). A few days ago it's started giving me IP conflicts that disappeared within 1-2 minutes, which is odd since it is my manual IP's getting the conflicts... It did that for 2 days then hasn't since.
    Currently I'm wired as...
    AT&T Gateway 192.1681.254 w/ 3 DHCP range 1.160-163, WiFi disabled, and 3 LAN ports to 2 TV's and my BEFSR41
    BEFSR41 192.168.1.10 w/ 15 DHCP range 1.60-74, WAN port unused, 4 LAN ports to 1 Desktop, 2 unmanaged Netgear 1000 switches, and 1 to the WAP
    WAP54G 192.168.1.11 with it's gateway set to 192.168.1.10 
    1 Netgear switch provides wired access for the entertainment center (PS3, DVD player, DVR, etc) and open ports for visitors
    Other Netgear switch is upstairs and runs to 2 additional desktops and one more cable box...
    All my wired NICs are set to a 1.2x address and all configured WiFi devices (Wii and a pair of Android phones) i have on a 1.3x.
    Manual IP with a 255.255.255.0 mask and gateway 192.168.1.254, manually entering the DNS from the gateway's Broadband Details page 
    As far as I've been able to test and observe, that gateway is tempermental (and intermittent so tech support can't EVER find a problem conveniently) with anything using the DHCP other than the cable boxes. My manual set devices have had no problems other than that strange IP conflict that popped up on 3 computers, bugged me 2 days, then just never came back (also ironically the monday i was going to call a tech support about it)
    I've attempted to disable the DHCP entirely from the gateway and only use my Linksys DHCP. That seemed to work for a few hours untill, i'm guessing, the leases expired. Then all 3 TV's stopped. Everything getting it's IP manually or from the Linksys continued just fine, internet and all. The cable boxes only returned when i re-activated the 2-Wire's DHCP Server.
    I would like to try using the Linksys router to isolate my LAN (and everything else i can) from that 2-Wire with a cascade, just link across on a single static IP to dodge that DHCP, but i havn't been able to get the cablebox upstairs to work off the Linksys DHCP. Even then, I'm not sure how i can get a network split to work. If i only isolated the DHCP over my WiFi, they would still at least loose file-sharing with the my File/Media/Backup PC downstairs. Move that to the other side, then the PC's upstairs loose access. As is it's MOSTLY stable though, i just have to pull apart the gateway and cut down it's DHCP range so my devices will actually get an IP from my linksys. If i don't take away the 2-wires, i still get a high IP fail rate. It would be great if i'm overlooking some way to force all DHCP IP requests -OTHER- than the cable boxes to get their IP from the Linksys and not the 2-Wire
    Far as jdaley, I havn't tried to set a cascade since I'm having problems figuring out a means to isolate the boxes (and 2-wire) away from the LAN since one box is upstairs sharing a single cable with the computers there. Someone else seemed to report a success that way. If not that, then only other thing I can think of might be to just manually set all your WiFi IP addresses by hand
    Thanks for any other ideas on dodging this 2-Wire's DHCP I'd really appreciate it. I'm really hoping i'm just overlooking something SIMPLE.

  • Problem with my Linksys wrt54gl

    I have problem with my wireless routher  I update my routher with the leatest  Blackfire firmware  and now i can't enter in my main setup menu  using my  default ip address  192.168.1.1 and  i  can't  reset my device because  it's not  responding to reset button nothing is happening when I hold reset button ,so can anyone  help me ?

    I think may be your router is un Brick Mode now, this happen due to incorrect firmware version uploaded on your Router or Firmware is not upgraded on your Router Properly.
    You can try this link and it will help you in recovering your Router.

  • Iv'e had my mac for 2 weeks & now have a problem with safari since I changed to a wireless super hub.  It will not open a web site I use my iPad & windows lap top will.  Apple support say it's the DNS settings cable say there okay please can anyone help

    Iv'e had my mac for 2 weeks safari was working great until I changed to a wire less super hub.  Safari will not let me open & log into a web site I go on a lot.  My ipad & windows lap top will on the same network.  Apple have said it's the DNS setting my cable provider say it's not it's a problem with my mac.  Iv'e phoned apple lots of times same with cable provider Iv'e tried a few things it has not helped solve the problem.  I'm now advised to return my mac to the shop for a check.  Has anyone else had this problem I would appreciate any help because I'm going round in circles.

    Adding a couple of DNS numbers sometimes helps:
    System Preferences>Network, select your wifi or ethernet network on the left and click on the 'advanced' button and then the DNS tab. On the left side of the window make a note of any DNS numbers listed so that you can re-instate them if necessary and then click on the '+" button bottom left of the window. Type 8.8.8.8 and click the + again and type 8.8.4.4 save the settings and try the website again.
    BTW, I have the same problem with Firefox not letting me input my password in secure sites. I did find a workround in the network settings in Firefpx prefs, but it didn't stick so I reverted to using Chrome as alternative browser. No problems with that so long as you don't mind Google looking over your shoulder

  • Problems with the Linksys WRE54G

    Hello,
    after hours of trying to get the WRE54G working, there is still no result.
    The situation is as following:
    - the router is a Speedtouch 716
    - I have disabled the WEP security
    - I have used the autoconfig on the range expander
    - I have changed some settings in the webbased UI: picture
            x the SSID is the same as the SSID of the router
            x the channel is the same as the channel of the router (however "USA" is mentioned but I live in Europe)
            x the default IP is 192.168.1.240 but I have changed this to 192.168.1.60
            x  the gateway is changed
    - WDS is enabled in my router
    - two blue lights can be seen on the RE
    - I can make a connection to the RE, so I can open the webbased UI
    - but it is impossible to use the internet via the RE
    Anyone who knows a solution?
    Many thanks!

    i think i have a similar problem!!
    I live in an apartment two floors and have a WRT300N router and my internet signal is weak on the second floor but it works. I called Linksys tech support who guided me to buy the WRE54G to extend the signal. I bought and with great difficulty managed to install. Actually the second floor the signal was very good, but the internet on the main computer (connected to the router by wire) does not work, all other computers work perfectly and with good internet signal. The computer works normally with WRE54G off, I think it must be some conflict with the configuration of the WRE54G, but already several times called for support from linksys in Brazil and nobody knows how to solve the problem, always put them in the problem computer and it works normally just unplug the WRE54G.
    WRE54G unwieldy since the installation
    Please someone help me!!

  • I`m havin problems with my restoring !

    I wanted to update my ipod photo , and the process didn`t finish . Then my ipod didn`t work corectly ! So I wanted to restore him . I restoreded with the last updater, but it dosn`t work , when I click restore it says : Formatting failure. Disk write error ! Please help me ! My e-mail is : [email protected] ! I NEED HELP PLEASE ! ! !

    The disk write error article left by the previous person is a good idea, but if basically just says keep restoring the iPod. If the article didn't work, do this (it does the same thing)
    1. connect iPod
    2. open My Computer
    3. find the iPod (may be called iPod or Removable Disk) under devices with removable storage
    4. right click on the iPod
    5. click format
    6. click quickformat
    7. click start
    8. wait for it to finish
    When the process is complete, iTunes should open up with the iPod setup assistant. It might feel like it's taking forever to get started, and it might feel as though you're computer is freezing on every step, but if you're patient and go through the process described above, your issue should be resolved.

  • Problem with my linksys WRT120N i can't connect to the address 192.168.1.1

    Hello friends
    i need help cuz i can't connect to the address 192.168.1.1
    i didn't change the address 192.168.1.1 to an other address but i can't connect to this last i want to change my options
    i really need help plz 

    Make sure that the computer is connected to the router on the Ethernet port..Now,check the ip address on the computer....Click Start >> All Programs >> Accessories >> Command Prompt...A black box will appear(Command Prompt)...In the Command Prompt window type ipconfig and press 'Enter'...Look for Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection IP Address , Subnet Mask and Default Gateway...
    IP Address should be 192.168.1.x, Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1 (assuming your router is 192.168.1.1)...
    If you get the above mentioned IP Address, Subnet and Gateway Address then you should ping the Gateway, type ping 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...If it gives you request timed out then disable any firewalls, security softwares on the computer...
    If you get 4 replies then,Adjust the Browser Settings on the computer....Open an IE, click Tools >> Internet Options, then delete all files, cookies, history, forms...Goto "Connections", make sure Never Dial a Connection is checked, click on LAN Settings and make sure all the options are unchecked...Once you are done click on O.k...Close the IE and re-open it...

  • Problems with brand new HP 255 G3 Quad Core Laptop

    Long story short, the main problem l have is "Windows 8.1",  lve had this laptop since saturday and about the only thing lve really done on it is windows updates.. why? you may ask, well l waited three days to get nothing through windows update, l had to resort to using a program called autopatcher to get my system patched an up to date. now dont get me wrong l am happy with the hardware, my old laptop was pretty slow compared to this one.. and l am impressed with the start up speed but the software is a complete pile of manure!!! so essentially l want to know how l can eithier downgrade to Win7 or if the upgrade to 10 is much more stable to windows 8.. for that matter l want actual media (l dont like not having actual disks as l dont like upgrading an OS over a previous one if that makes sense).

    Hi There,
    Make sure that the charger connection is free of dust and debris which can cause the charger from connecting properly. I would also suggest doing an SMC reset: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964 Read through the instructions carefully before attempting the SMC reset.
