IP Address Conflict with range expander

Hi,
I have a Linksys WRT610N router that I am trying to extend the range of using a Hawking HWREN1. The router configures fine and I'm able to access the Internet from an attached PC. When I hook up the Hawking extender, it configures correctly, it seems, but as soon as it saves the configuration, Windows XP on the PC tells me that there is an IP address conflict.
Hawking suggested a factory reset of the extender and redoing setup, which I did, with no success. As soon as I unplug power to the extender, the error goes away, so the issue is connected to the extender.
I've also tried using a completely different IP address range, setting the router to 192.168.2.2. The PC is set to 192.168.2.201, and the extender to 192.168.2.202, and still I get the IP address error message.
I'm unsure how to perform further diagnostics on this, since at least from the looks of things, there is no IP address conflict, even tho the error message says that there is. Is there something else that could cause an IP address conflict besides the IP address itself, for example? BTW, the extender was purchased on advice of a store clerk, who said that they'd had good luck with the Hawkings. Is there a more appropriate product to use from Linksys. Supposedly, the Hawking is better because it covers a larger variety of standards, even tho it is not dual band like the router. I haven't seen any dual band extenders around.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you are getting these error mesasge on your Computer, these means your Both the computers are getting the same IP address from the Router. To avoide getting these error message, you can assigne a Static IP to your Hardwired Computer.
On your XP computer follow the settings bellow. Click on the Start button >>> Settings >>> Control Panel >>>Network Connections- Right click on the icon for Local area connection and go to properties- On the 'General' tab select 'Internet Protocol TCP/IP' and click on the Properties button- Select 'Use the following IP address'- Provide IP Address - 192.168.1.5, Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway - 192.168.1.1- Preferred DNS 192.168.1.1, Alternate DNS - 4.2.2.2 >>Click on Ok button to Save and Click on "Close" on main Properties window.
Now check if you are Online from your computer, and i think these should solve your Problem.

IP address conflict with alias

Hello,
I have two CSM 4.1(5) in CatOS 6509 configured in router mode.
I have configured one client VLAN and 2 servers VLANs (with aliases IP adresses), and an ft dedicated gigabit link.
The configuration is the same for both server VLANS :
vlan z server
ip address x.x.x.x x.x.x.x
alias y.y.y.y y.y.y.y
The logs show an IP address conflict for one server VLAN with the alias IP address configured for this VLAN, whereas there is no problem for the other server VLAN.
This problem causes the CSM going to active-active configuration for a very short time (1sec) and then going back to active-backup situation during about 30 sec.
Does anybody have an idea about the problem ? I could not find any documentation to know if more than one server VLAN with an alias could cause a problem in router mode or an issue related to that.
Thanks,
Herve.

Herve,
should not be a problem.
You can have as many server vlan with alias as you want.
The CSM does box redundancy [per box not per vlan].
So if the CSM is active, it will be active for all vlans not just a one or a few of them.
Sniff the ft vlan and make sure there is heartbeat sent from both site.
Sniff traffic coming in and out of both csm to make sure they both receive and transmit.
Capture 'sho mod csm x ft detail' several times and check the transmit/receive counters.

With Range Expander I cannot connect to GOOGLE site~ Please HELP ME~!

I purchased this range expander a month ago, since then I cannot connect to the GOOGLE and some other websites. Can anyone know what the problem is?
I tried everything the google site and the other people suggested yet it did not work.
Please help me to fix this problem.
I even formated this hard drive and re-installed Win XP....ㅜ,ㅜ
Someone told me that the problem could be from the expander because of firewall or something..

make sure that all wireless settings on the expander matches the wireless settings on the router. and for one, im not aware that the expander has a firewall? only router does.
*just a thought*

House bank remit address conflicts with vendor bank data in FI02

The house bank remit address is entered in FI02 base on the bank key or ABA number. Since maintenance of bank address is the same in FI02 for vendor banks there is the potential of a vendor using the same Bank and routine vendor bank address maintenance to conflict or change our house bank remit address. Is there a way to enter remit addresses for house banks so they can't be accessed from FI02?

hi deepa,
it's not good because in the free selection if we will defined house bank he will be used for all the payments in the payment run
and we need that in the same current payment run we have for example vendor 1 - house bank xxx for vendor 2 - house bank yyy
etc..
i do not see in your suggest the above situation work

IP Address Conflict

I am using a linksys wrt54gs router, a wre54g range expander and a wusb200 wireless adapter, there is only one computer on the network and it's set to a static IP address. Could someone please explain to me how I'm getting an IP address conflict with another system on the network?
Please?
I've already been through linksys phone support.
Twice.

Please list all the static LAN IP addresses that you are using on your network. Also, if you are not using the default DHCP server range of 192.168.1.100 thru 192.168.1.149 , then please state your DHCP server range.
Is your WRE54G, using the default fixed LAN IP address of 192.168.1.240 ?
Assuming that your addresses are all correct, then the next most likely cause for your problem is that your computer is connecting both to your router, and to your WRE54G, and the WRE54G is in turn forwarding the connection to the router. The router sees the direct connection and the connection through the WRE54G and interprets this as two connections with the same LAN IP address.
If this is the case, I would suggest that you try to eliminate the WRE54G. It sounds like your wireless computer can connect directly to your router. If you can connect, but not well, use the HGA7T high gain antennas on your WRT54GS, instead of the WRE54G.
A third way to get an address conflict is if your neighbor has set his computer to a fixed LAN IP address, and he is also connecting to your network. In this case, secure your wireless network.

How do I know my range expander is working?

My range expander is set up witd the same SSID and security as my router. I can telnet into the device, but the wireless signal has not improved where the range expander is placed.
My son's xbox is about 20ft from the expander, and the "number of bars" is the same whether the expander is plugged in or not.
Since the Xbox connects to wireless router, it must be configured correctly to be on the network.
How can I test this or verify it is working.
Both blue lights are on

What is model number of your wireless router?
Plug in the power to the Range Expander. Try to ping the IP address of your range expander when it is connected only to the power. If you get replies from the range expander then it is communicating with the router and configured properly.
If there is no improvement in signal strength then try to upgrade the firmware on the range expander.

Safari won't connect to Linksys Range Expander

Hope some one can end my sleepless nights...
I have read the posts on this forum for this type of problem and have followed the advice given but still can't get my neighbours Mac laptop to connect to my wireless network
I have a Desktop PC running windows XP and two laptops running xp and vista. The network is a Belkin ADSL+2 modum and Netgear Wireless Rangemax router WPN824 which is wired by Ethernet to the PC while the Laptops hook into the network wirelessly. I am running WEP encryption on the router.
I hooked up the Linksys WRE54G Range Expander and finally got it confugured on my network and placed it on the edge of my signal but my neighbour has a Mac and can't piggy back. The airport say it is connected to my network but we can't open a page and get on the web. Interestingly she is able to hook up to my router when in my unit with the Airport using the WEP password and I can take my laptop in her unit and connect automatically to my network thru the RE as the signal is excellent.
After searching various threads here and forums elsewhere I configured the Mac's IPv4 to "Use DHCP with manual address" I assigned an IP address of 192.168.1.50 (as advised in the posts) , applied and rebooted - no luck! I have searched all types of sites for any information as I am only a novice
My router is the DHCP Server and has an IP of 192.168.1.1 and subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. It's starting IP address is 192.168.1.2 and ends with 192.168.1.254. The Ip address of the Range expander is 192.168.1.240 and the subnet mask is the same while the gateway is 192.168.1.1 (router IP) It has WEP encryption enabled using the same keys as the router. Didn't know how to ping using the Mac so no info there sorry.
When we assigned an IP address in the ethernet settings on the mac we configured IPv4 "Using DHCP with manual address" as per advice from other posts. We then only had the option to set an IP address and nothing else.
When we go to "Network" we have a green light next to AirPort and it says "Airport is connected to the network JLay (my SSID). You are connected to the internet via AirPort".
We tried various other types of configurations with IPv4 but nothing works
Any advice is appreciated as I've now hit a brick wall

Seems that I needed to type in the DNS server address (10.0.0.2) when I configured IPv4 manually. I used an IP address for the MAC 192.168.1.50 (as suggested) and same subnet mask as the router and used the IP address for the router in the router box.
What a relief!

Wireless - G Range Expander. I really need help.

I am completely computer illiterate and nobody I seem to ask knows anything about computers. So, please, use layman's terms because I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing.
I currently have a Belkin router that says "Belkin Wireless G 2.4 Ghz-802.11g" downstairs. I play video games in my room (upstairs). Most of the time, my latency is really, really high in my room and it's at times unbearable. When I bring my laptop downstairs to play closer to the router, it works great. I can't ALWAYS play in downstairs and for those of you addicted to MMORGs, you know how bad it is when you're trying to do something with a group and you keep disconnecting. Anyway, somebody told me to buy a range expander and I have without even reading about what kind to get or anything like that. I've bought the Linksys Wireless - G Range Expander. I did the auto-configuration thing and it recognized my router's name and all that but wouldn't connect to it. On the Linksys FAQ it says:
9. Can I modify the wireless standard that the WRE54G Range Expander will use? * Yes, you can choose from 3 different modes. These are: “Mixed”, “G-only”, and “B-only”. Choose “Mixed” for a network that consists of 802.11b and 802.11g-compliant devices. Choose “G-only” if wireless clients and access points that are making use of the Range Expander are comprised of all 802.11g-compliant devices. Choose “B-only” if wireless clients and access points that are using the Range Expander are all 802.11b devices.
I think that's what I need to do. HOW do I modify the wireless standard? Or what am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help you can give me.

Get a computer and connect it to the range expander, make sure you press the reset button on it before anything else.... then set a static IP on your computer...
the reason behind this is you would need to change the IP address of your range expander to follow the IP segment of your existing netgear router.... after setting the static IP 192.168.1.x subnet 255.255.255.0 and gateway 192.168.1.1 on the PC, launch a browser and type 192.168.1.240 then use admin as your password... if you are on the setup page of the range expander, look for the IP address and set it to 192.168.0.240 same subnet and gateway 192.168.0.1 if needed...save the settings and it should normally just expire on you... after changing that, get the range expander and press the auto config button while beside your netgear router... wait for the lights to blink, then release and wait for it to turn blue.... if you have wireless security, connect the range expander instead on the router wired first (as if it was a PC) then go to a computer connected to the router and access 192.68.0.240... admin as password then change your wireless security to the same one as your router... save the settings then turn the range expander off... detach it then turn it on again... try checking the lights if both turn blue...you can place that on the least range you get from the router and it will repeat the signal for you....goodluck and try to get someone tech savvy fo help you just in case..

Static Policy NAT in VPN conflicts with Static NAT

I have a situation where I need to create a site-to-site VPN between an ASA 5505 using IOS 7.2 and a Sonicwall NSA4500. The problem arises in that the LAN behind the Cisco ASA has the same subnet as a currently existing VPN created on the Sonicwall. Since the Sonicwall can't have two VPNs both going to the same subnet, the solution is to use policy NAT on the ASA so that to the Sonicwall, the new VPN appears to have a different subnet.
The current subnet behind the ASA is 192.168.10.0/24 (The Sonicwall already has a VPN created to a different client with that same subnet). I am trying to translate that to 192.168.24.0/24. The peer LAN (behind the Sonicwall) is 10.159.0.0/24. The pertinent configuration of the ASA is:
interface Vlan1
ip address 192.168.10.1 255.255.255.0
access-list outside_1_cryptomap extended permit ip 192.168.24.0 255.255.255.0 10.159.0.0 255.255.255.0
access-list VPN extended permit ip 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0 10.159.0.0 255.255.255.0
static (inside,outside) 192.168.24.0 access-list VPN
crypto map outside_map 1 match address outside_1_cryptomap
In addition to this, there are other static NAT statements and their associated ACLs that allow certain traffic through the firewall to the server, e.g.:
static (inside,outside) tcp interface smtp SERVER smtp netmask 255.255.255.255
The problem is this: When I enter the static policy NAT statement, I get the message "Warning: real-address conflict with existing static" and then it refers to each of the static NAT statements that translate the outside address to the server. I thought about this, and it seemed to me that the problem was that the policy NAT statement needed to be the first NAT statement (it is last) so that it would be handled first and all traffic destined for the VPN tunnel to the Sonicwall (destination 10.159.0.0/24) would be correctly handled. If I left it as the last statement, then the other static NAT statements would prevent some traffic destined for the 10.159.0.0/24 network from being correctly routed through the VPN.
So I tried first to move my policy NAT statement up in the ASDM GUI. However, moving that statement was not permitted. Then I tried deleting the five static NAT statements that point to the server (one example is above) and then recreating them, hoping that would then move the policy NAT statement to the top. This also failed.
What am I missing?

Hi,
To be honest it should work in the way I mentioned. I am not sure why it would change the order of the NAT configurations. I have run into this situation on some ASA firewalls running the older software (older than 8.2) and the reordering of the configurations has always worked.
So I am not sure are we looking at some bug or what the problem is.
I was wondering if one solution would be to configure all of the Static NAT / Static PAT as Static Policy NAT/PAT
I have gotten a bit rusty on the older (8.2 and older) NAT configuration format as over 90% of our customer firewalls are running 8.3+ software.
I was thinking of this kind of "static" configuration for the existing Static PAT configurations if you want to try
access-list STATICPAT-SMTP permit tcp host eq smtp any
static (inside,outside) tcp interface smtp access-list STATICPAT-SMTP
access-list STATICPAT-HTTPS permit tcp host eq https any
static (inside,outside) tcp interface https access-list STATICPAT-HTTPS
access-list STATICPAT-RDP permit tcp host eq 3389 any
static (inside,outside) tcp interface 3389 access-list STATICPAT-RDP
access-list STATICPAT-TCP4125 permit tcp host eq 4125 any
static (inside,outside) tcp interface 4125 access-list STATICPAT-TCP4125
access-list STATICPAT-POP3 permit tcp host eq pop3 any
static (inside,outside) tcp interface pop3 access-list STATICPAT-POP3
Naturally you would add the Static Policy NAT for the VPN first.
Again I have to say that I am not 100% sure if this was is the correct format maybe you can test it with a single service that has a Static PAT. For example the Static PAT for RDP (TCP/3389). First entering the Static Policy NAT then removing the Static PAT and then entering the Static Policy PAT.
Remember that you should be able to test the translations with the "packet-tracer" command
For example
packet-tracer input outside tcp 1.1.1.1 12345

IP address conflict - Personal Router ValetPlus M20

We are having a regular IP address conflict with our Cisco ValetPlus M20 router that causes one portable computer to not be able to access the internet and we reboot the router - I am looking for a permanent solution to this problem - not the temporary solution of renewing the IP address as is recommended on most message boards that I've found online - why would the router/network have such a problem? Does something need to be set? Does the router need to be configured? It seems that the router should be able to allocate IP addresses for all computers on the network - which include two portable computers, one desktop, and 2 ipads. But only one portable computer running windows 7 experiences the conflict, has the problem. Could it be software on that computer or malware causing the problem?
Thanks,
David

I'm not sure what you're asking, we have internet access, but one computer loses its connection overnight and then we reboot the router and that solves the problem...
Hello, dfine1971. One computer losing connection may be due to any of the following causes: wireless interference, intermittent wireless signal, or limits on the number of devices that are allowed to connect to the wireless network (router). If the computer is wired to the router, there's a possibility of an adapter problem. For wireless interference and intermittent signals, try changing the router wireless channel to either 1, 6, 9, or 11. Relocating the router should provide you a better signal coverage. If the IP address conflict error message still persists, set the wireless clients to automatic DHCP configuration or enable DHCP Reservation instead of using static IP.

I use a DSL to connect to the internet. The modem is a Westell C90-810030-06. Two things happened in connection with the fail. I upgraded the firmware in both my Time Capsule (connected to the DSL) and the Airport Extreme (connected to my printer--used to extend the network). I also upgraded my Colof Nook to the Android Faux Tablet version. I can't imagine that that is creating some sort of mismatch.
I have now downgraded the firmware on the Time Capsule to 7.4.1 which is what I had before. Fortunately, I found the trick to downloading the older airport utility to find the older firmware. All the older versions disappeared from my computers.
I still have the same problem. Wifi works fine. If a second device connects to the wifi, then it works fine, but the first no longer has a connection.
And my Airport Extreme is not working at all. It cannot be seen by the computer. I tried resetting it. I'm going to connect it by ethernet and downgrade the firmware on it.
I appreciate any help. This is so frustrating.
