IPAD issues with wrt54G

Hi,  has anyone had problems with  Ipads connecting using wrt54g.  I have had my ipad for about a month and it had been working perfectly when it suddenly dropped out.  I can see the signal and connection is ticked under wifi but it acts as if I'm not connected.  I have tried reseting and changing key from wep to wpa2 (no signal at all).  The IP address starts with 169.254 instead of 192.168.1.1.  My iphone connection works perfectly?? On safari an error reads "the connection to the server failed".  Apple support tried to change the security key to WPA but as mentioned above no good at all. 
Can anyone help

  • IPAD issue with app store loading..

    Hi All,
    I have very strange issue of using app store in my new Ipad. In my home network if I connects to app store it shows "loading..." and after few minutes it says "Cannot connect to iTunes Store" (But Safari web browser works fine and able to connect to any website. Using my laptop itunes, I am able to connect to itunes store.) The same problem is encountering in my Ipod Touch(IOS 6) also. But If I use any of these apple devices in any other network outside my home network(even with my neighbor's network who uses same service provider as me) it works very well. I use Beetel ADSL2+router(450TC1). Even I connected a new WiFi router to this modem and tried, but no luck. So guessing it has nothing to do with WiFi router. I am trying this for the past few weeks. Can anybody help to find out the issue?. I suspect it could be some issue with modem, because it works in all other networks..

  • Wireless Issues with WRT54G V8

    For about a month now I have been having issues with staying connected wirelessly. I have updated the firmware, changed the wireless channels and such. Im not sure what the problem is. It normaly happends during the evening/night hours, but thats when Im online most of the time. My WRT54G V2.2 didnt have this problem, thats the reason why I bought the same model when the old ones WAN port died. I have my compter set to use Static IP addresses, 128Bit web encription, mac address filtering. If any one has an suggestions I would be happy to hear them. I have even considered building a directional antenna for my wireless adapter, which is a WMP54G v4.

    On the web interface of the router change the beacon interval to 50 change Rts to 2304 and fragmentation threshold to 2304.

  • Issues with WRT54g V. 8 on Xbox Live.

    Hey guys,
    I'm having an issue with lag on xbox live.  My NAT type is set to open and I have my xbox DMZ as well as port forwarded.  There is no issue with joining games but I'm getting a lag anytime I play.  It's a short delay but when I throw a grenade or something of that sort it takes a second for the grenade to actually throw, and while that seems like a minor problem it makes all the difference in the games.  My last speed test showed 3 mbps down and 500 kbps up.  I've done as much research as possible and I'm sure the problem isn't with my ISP (time warner) but the issue lies somewhere in the router.  For whatever reason traffic is just getting hung up in the router and I CANNOT FIGURE IT OUT.  
    I have a linksys WRT54G V.8 with the latest firmware.  Its running on Channel 11 and I have WPA2 AES security enabled.  My mtu is 1500 and I have Qos enabled for my xbox's mac address and while in games I show a 4 bar connection to the host pretty much at all times.  I'm stumped folks and any suggestions or even explanations would be greatly appreciate.

    Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
    On the set-up tab change the MTU Size to 1365 and click Save Settings...
    Click on "Administration" tab and disable the option UPnP and click Save Settings...
    Click on "Applications and Gaming" tab and then click on "Port Range Forwarding" subtab...
    1) On the first line in Application box type in ABC, in the start box type in 53 and End box type in 3074, leave the protocol as both and under ip address type in 192.168.1.20 and check the enable box, click Save Settings once done...
    2) Once you return to the set up page click on the Security tab and uncheck Block Anonymous Internet Requests and click on Save Settings...
    3) Click on set-up and change the MTU Size to 1452 and click Save Settings...Click on the Status tab and take note of DNS1 and DNS2 Addresses...
    4) Goto the XBox Network Settings and IP Address Settings and select manual IP Settings and assign the following on your Xbox
    IP Address :- 192.168.1.20, Subnet Mask :- 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway :- 192.168.1.1...
    5) Also assign the DNS Addresses on the Xbox
    Use DNS1 and DNS2 Addresses you took note off of the router status tab as Primary DNS & Secondary DNS for the xbox...
    6) Turn off your modem, router, and Xbox...Wait for a minute...
    7) Plug the modem power first, wait for another minute and plug the router power cable, wait another minute and turn on the Xbox and test it...it will connect...
    ** Also try to lowe down the security such as WPA,WEP(64-bit)

  • Connectivity Issues with WRT54G V8

    I have always had some intermittent issues with this router, and now more than ever. It appears my router has recently gone to crap, and will no longer even connect. The device is properly connected, the latest firmware has been installed, and I have tried disconnecting and resetting the modem numerous times. There is no problem with my land line, as I have always been connected. Please let me know if I can provide further information, and what I could do to resolve this issue.

  • IPad issue with WebAccess (8.0.2.hp2)

    Hi.
    Accessing the webaccess page is generally fine, when using an iPad.
    writing a new email also opens. recepient's address can be entered fine, same for
    subject. But the main "edit" for the email text cannot be used to enter any text,
    the focus & cursor cannot be placed in it.
    Who knows, what's going wrong here?
    Regards, Rudi.

    Hi.
    >This is the only way at the moment, I think... 'How to Enable IPads and
    >IPod Touches to Automatically Use GroupWise Webaccess Simple Templates'
    >(http://www.novell.com/support/php/se...rnalId=7006843)
    >There should be better support for iPad/iPhone in next GW release.
    I can't believe it!
    Hm. Just tried the "basic interface", now I'm wondering, if this really is the same
    as "Webaccess Simple Templates", I'll edit the config files as mentioned in
    TID7006843, thanks so far, Rudi.
    When using an IPad to access GroupWise Webaccess, the ability to navigate is
    hampered by the css (Cascading Style Sheets) that are used in the default view
    presented.
    Resolution
    The Webaccess Application can be modified to detect when an IPad or IPod Touch
    browser is accessing the system and return the simple templates instead of the css
    templates.
    To set this up, please follow the directions below:
    1. Locate the webacc.cfg file for your Webaccess Application. The default locations
    are listed below:
    a) Linux /OES2 - /var/opt/novell/groupwise/webaccess
    b) NetWare - sys:/novell/webaccess
    c) Windows - c:\novell\groupwise\webaccess
    2. Make a backup copy of the file before changes are made
    3. Open the file with a text editor
    4. Within the file, there will be a section where there will be many entries that
    start with "Templates.UserAgent.#.id=*string reported by browser*". Note the entry
    listed with the largest number. Afterward, create 4 new lines. If the highest
    existing number in an existing entry is 8, then an entry should be created like the
    one below:
    Templates.UserAgent.9.id=*iPad
    Templates.UserAgent.9.interface=simple
    Templates.UserAgent.10.id=*iPod
    Templates.UserAgent.10.interface=simple
    5. Save and exit the file
    6. Restart Tomcat using the one of the commands below and then test with your IPad.
    a. To restart Tomcat on NetWare enter the following commands from the console
    java -exit
    tomcat4.ncf
    b. To restart Tomcat on Windows, open the Services Console and right-click Tomcat
    5.5 and choose Stop and then right click again and choose Start.
    c. To restart Tomcat on Linux/OES2, open an terminal window as the root user and
    issue the command "rcnovell-tomcat5 restart". On other SuSE Linux Enterprise
    distributions, the command will be "rctomcat# restart" where the # sign represents
    the version of Tomcat that is running.

  • Strange connectivity issue with WRT54G

    I hope you can help with this.  I have just moved into a new house and am trying to connect the internet through their WRT54G wirelessG router.  It shows up with full reception in the WindowsXP wireless connection manager, but it will not connect.  IPCONFIG has its status as 'Media Disconnected', and all pings to 192.168.1.1 fail.  A loopback test ping to 127.0.0.1 works.  My flatmate's wireless connection to same router works fine, and when he accesses the router's configuration page it states that I HAVE connected and DHCP has assigned me an IP.  I've tried everything; deleting & resetting the connection, resetting the TCP/IP/Winsock protocols, disabling the WEP security on the router, but no luck.  The connection is fine on my flatmate's computer.  My machine is a Dell laptop and and I have taken it to 3 other wireless networks and it connects to them no problem.  I can connect to the router in question fine wired with a CAT5 cable but it's not convenient to have that as a permanent solution (when the router is supposed to be wireless!)
    I work in IT and thought I was pretty good with computers but this has me completely stumped!  I looked for new firmware but couldn't find any listed on your site - if there is could you provide a link, or if you've any other ideas what could be causing this please let me know!
    Thanks
    Message Edited by steviemac on 08-15-2007 09:07 AM

    Sounds to me like it's related to a configuration setting despite the "Media Disconnected" message. Try disabling any SpeedBooster or other non-essential options on the router. Perpaps the Dell WiFi NIC doesn't like it. I doubt it's a MAC filtering issue but you can try removing that too. If it's a somewhat older laptop you can try removing the small panel on the bottom and reseating the WiFi adapter if it's located there. Newer Dells have them built in around the LCD where you can't access them.

  • Several issues with WRT54G

    I just purchased a WRT54G to replace a damaged BEFW11S4. It’s version is v8.00.0, Jan. 16, 2007. The router is located in an upstairs bedroom. Downstairs is the Wireless Adapter WUSB11, Version 1.07. The connectivity between the two is fine. Here are the issues I am having.
    Issue 1.
    WEB encryption does not work. I setup the WRT54G for WEB, set the Passphrase and save the settings. I setup the WUSB11 with the same Passphrase and reset everything. The Wireless connection is establish but I do not obtain an IP address from the router. I have tried this several times with the PC and the Router next to me for easy configuration. Does anyone have any insight on what I might be doing wrong? Understand that when I had my BEFW11S4 the WEB worked great.
    Issue 2.
    I attempted to do the Install Wizard that came with the WRT54G, why, I don’t know. It got to a point in which I needed to enter IP addresses. Since my PC uses Dynamic IP, I canceled the Wizard. Ever since doing this, my PC is taking a long time to boot. Once booted, the WUSB11 is not being started. I get a 169.x.x.x IP address. I have added the IPAutoconfigurationEnable in the Registry but that did not change anything, except I do not get the 169.x.x.x address anymore.
    It seems that something was loaded during the Wizard that was not removed on the Cancel. I’ve tried turning off my Virus program and my Firewall. Nothing changed. So there seems to be a process running that is looking for other IP connections. I recall having this problem before, but I don’t remember what I did to turn it off.
    Again, if anyone might have any insight on what might be happening, I would appreciate it.
    PC is running WinXP Home with SP2. WRT54Gv8, WUSB11v1.07.Message Edited by Brian_D on 06-01-200707:52 PM

    Thanks...
    System Restore fixed everything. I still don't know why I was having issues. But, a restore allowed me to get the WUSB11 back on line and WEB is also working.
    My symptom for issue 2 was the PC booted with icons of programs starting appearing in the icon tray, but the virus program had a red x indicating it was disabled. About two minutes later x went away and the WUSB11 icon appeared in the tray. Only then could I open the Network Properties.
    All this was too strange, but a simple restore back to a day or two before I purchased the WRT54G brought every thing back to normal. Now the PC runs as it should and my internet connection is available about 30 sec from boot up.
    Thanks again for your comments.

  • Issues with WRT54G routers & adapters

    I have a WRT54G router and  WUSB 11 adapters. Initially when the wireless network was setup, everything worked fine. My DSL modem started giving trouble and Bellsouth came and replaced it with a Netopia.
    None of my wireless desktop will connect now. They recognise my Network but will not connect. Efforts by the Linksys Tech produce no better results. I changed the Adapters but same results with new ones.
    When I try to connect to my network I'm getting this message
    "Windows is unable to connect to selected network. The network may no longer be in range. Please refresh the list of available networks and try to connect again."  Did that too, dozens of times.
    Any asssistance to resolve this issue would be appreciated.

    Hi… Well I don’t see any reason why you should get this issue by changing the Modem. If you are getting this error, it means you have changed some of the wireless settings on this router. I would suggest you to go a Firmware Upgrade first, then reset the router and reconfigure it properly. Now try to connect to these new wireless settings. You should not get this issue.

  • Anyone else experience iOS 8 iPad issues with multitasking gestures?

    I've had several instances where the multitasking gestures do not respond on my iPad mini.  When using the 4-finger swipe up (equivelent to double click the home button), instead of entering the multitasking view, the visible app senses me trying to scroll.  I tried this gesture from the Settings app in landscape mode and both sides of the app scrolled.  Restarting my iPad fixes this issue temporarilly.
    On another occasion, while trying to switch between apps by swiping left to right with 4 fingers, SpringBoard crashed and restarted.
    Anyone else seeing these kinds of issues?  How best to report to Apple?

    Yes, I have this on an iPad Air after updating to IOS 8. The pinch option seems to randomly quit working. It you go to Settings and turn off Multitasking Gestures, leave Settings, and go back in to Settings and re-enable Multitasking Gestures it works again for a while but will then randomly quit again. It seems like it is only the pinch option that quits working.
    I have found that when I have the problem I can pull down the Notification screen, or pull up the settings screen using the one finger swipe up or swipe down option and then the pinch options works again. Since I found this circumvention and don't have to toggle the setting it is not as annoying, but I still wind up trying to pinch multiple times before I realize it has quit working so I agree this should be fixed soon.

  • Having terrible issues with WRT54G Router

    For a long time our router worked just fine, but in the last few months its really deteriorated, and as of today, it won't work at all.
    I thought that perhaps updating the software would make it run better, so I came to this site, and saw a download for the firmware for the latest version (Mine is only running a 6.0) but when I try to download the upgrade, it says that it's a BIT or BIN file (I think BIN) that my computer can't open, would I want to search the web for a program that will run that file. I try that - nada. Nothing will work becaues of the type of file, and I have no choice in types of files to begin with.
    I've unplugged everything and replugged in the correct order countless times. When I don't use the router at all, my computer just conncted to my modem works just fine. But add the router, and neither computer works.
    Please oh please help me....I don't really know too much about what I'm doing, but I'm a quick learner!

    Hello Brooke,
    First, version 6.0 is actually a hardware version for a WRT54G.
    The firmware refers to the software driving the router to run.
    You can find your router's firmware version in your router's setup page.
    Click HERE on how to open your router's setup page.
    Second, a firmware file is not executable.
    Meaning, you do not have to open it or run it.
    Leave it saved on your computer after downloading it.
    And then, click HERE for steps on upgrading the firmware on your router.
    Hope this helps!

  • Having issues with WRT54GS router acquiring network address after wireless connection.

    I've been experiencing problems acquiring a network address after making a wireless connection with the WRT54GS wireless router. I have a Comcast cable modem connected to the internet port of the router and after configuring the SSID and the 64 bit WEP key, I can connect to my router's SSID, but since I can't get an IP address, never connect to the Internet. I've already cloned the laptop's mac address to no avail. Even after configuring a static IP address, subnet mask and default gateway, still cannot connect. I can Ping and Traceroute from the router but not the PC. I can ping localhost and host IP address from the laptop but not the default gateway. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, SJ

    Connect the computer to the router with the Ethernet cable.
    Try to access the internet when you connect the computer to the router with the Ethernet cable.
    Open the setup page of the router and go to Status page. Check the Internet IP address on the status page of the router.
    If you are able to access the Internet with the Wired connection to the router then try to create a new wireless network on your router.
    Open the setup page of the router and go to Wireless tab. Change the wireless network name SSID and change the channel to 11. Save the settings. Go to Wireless security sub tab and check the wireless security settings. Click on Wireless MAC filter sub tab and make sure that it is disabled. Click on Advanced wireless settings sub tab. Change the Beacon Interval to 75, RTS and fragmentation threshold to 2304. Save the settings.
    Try to connect to the new wireless network and see if that works.
    How many wired and wireless computers do you have in the network?
