Linksys BEFW11S4 v2 game issues

Here is my spcific problem:
I am now connected through a port in the back of the linksys BEFW11S4 v2 because I know wireless will not work on this game. I want to play the folowing game: Asheron's Call:Throne of Destiny but when I load up the game it seems to stop when loading the Update blue bar. I have tried fowarding ports (9000-9013) and all but it still does not work. Am I missing anything or is this game not able to work with this router.. or what? I am really running out of options here, someone please help! Thank-you Linksys Comunity Members!

try setting up the MTU to 1400...

  • Cisco VPN 3.6.3b and BEFW11S4 v2 connection issue

    I'm hoping someone can help with this problem.  I am able to connect to my employers VPN server, but cannot access any of the shared areas.  I've found some documentation that may point to an MTU issue, but adjusting the value on the laptop from 1400 down to 1250 to 1200 doesn't work.  I've tried forcing the value to 1250 using the Router Filter settings with no luck.  IPSEC pass through is enabled on the router as is MAC filtering.
    I've tested the VPN while on-campus and I have no problems.  I also have no problems accessing the internet through the Linksys router with VPN turned off.
    Any ideas?
    Configuration:
    DELL Precision M70 running  XP
    Time Warner RoadRunner
    Motorola Surfboard Cable Modem
    Linksys BEFW11S4 v2 (using wireless connection) FW 1.45.10
    Cisco VPN 3.6.3b

    Ok thanks so much. I will try again. 
    My company's IT guys aren't  being very helpful, won't return my calls, emails, etc. and don't appear to be giving me clear instructions on what I believe to be a standard request.  Not sure why .
    We can't get in as administrators, they have to do it for us, and they are not timely in requests like these.  We are a large company (over 10K employees) and the last time I tried this was with our email client and and Cisco VPN, bundled together. It was a disaster and I don't recommend it.  So this way was supposed to be easier for the user, and for them to help us with questions.  Oh well. 
    I will at least try what you have suggested, and when I get back to work I will see if I can get their public ip address, and see if they will check on the port.  
    I will post back to see if the suggestions from the above post worked.
    Many thanks again for your help!

  • Linksys BEFW11S4 v2 with a NETGEAR RP614 v3

    I have a Linksys BEFW11S4 v2 with a NETGEAR RP614 v3.
    My setup is my Cable modem, into my NETGEAR RP614 v3, and everything works perfectly fine. I got a Linksys BEFW11S4 v2 and updated its firmware from the linksys server.
    Now,
    I'm hooking the Linksys into the NETGEAR router (ethernet) and using the Linksys wireless to connect my laptop to the entire network.
    (My PC desktop is running XP Home and my Laptop is running Windows Vista Home Premium)
    My laptop can go online perfectly fine wirelessly, and the signal and everything seems perfectly fine. My problem is however, my Laptop can't see the computers on the NETGEAR router. (The Linksys acquires the correct IP and Domain and everything from the NETGEAR however).
    I've set the network discovery and all in Windows Vista to on, however it can't see the computers still. I've even disabled the Firewalls at one point on the desktops.
    However, Itunes finds the SHARED music files and stuff from the NETGEAR computers. And when I ran Diablo2, with TCP/IP I could connect to a game hosted by a NETGEAR computer, yet when I hosted, they couldn't connect to me behind the Linksys.
    Anyone think they can help ?
    Thank you for your time,
    Charles Louis

    That's because they belong to different networks: I think it goes this way...
    Netgear usually operates under the network IP of 192.168.0.x while Linksys operates under network IP of 192.168.1.x ......... now if you want to do file and printer sharing on all your PC's... have them belong to the same network by doing the ff:
    ► change IP of the BEFW11S4 to 192.168.0.x (preferrably 50)
    ► disable the Linksys DHCP server
    ► connect the Netgear to port 1 of the Linksys router
    This would make in effect your BEFW11S4 just like a wireless switch.

  • Constant disconnects with Linksys BEFW11S4/Westell/Bellsouth Ultra DSL

    I recently upgraded to the 6mb DSL service from Bellsouth.  Previously I had the 3mb.  Anyways everything was fine for sometime even with the faster service.  The last few weeks I have been having constant disconnects(several a day).  Naturally the wireless lite on my Linksys BEFW11S4 goes out each time.  I then un-power the router then re-power and I'm off and running again.  I am using a westell modem.  Bellsouth tells me that its not them since i do have an internet coneection and referred me to Linksys.  After several live chats(due to disconnects and then having to start tellin my issue all over again) they had me upgrade my firmware. Well did that and problem hasn't changed.  I've played with the different router channels and they don't seem to help as well.  Bellsouth told me that I had a static ip, so I tied setting up router that way, but then i got no connection.  Unil reently everything was fine, this just started!   Any help is greatly appreicated.  My 17 yr old daughter is going through internet withdraws upstairs!

    If you are on DSL using a Westell Modem; make sure you ask your ISP to bridge the Modem first and use the PPPoE fucntion on your router. Change the LAN IP of the router to something else like 192.168.2.1 so it won't get a conflict with the IP of the Westell. Then if you are on cable, you can try adjusting the MTU size to 1492, 1400, 1300, or 576 then check which value would get your connection stable. You can reset your router right after you upgrade it also, then reconfigure it again. Hopefully yell be fine after that!

  • Linksys befw11s4

    I am trying to figure out if I can use an Airport Express (the $99 dollar thing) with my wireless Linksys befw11s4 to stream music from itunes in my Windows XP Pro laptop. I cant seem to find a strait answer on the web. I am not sure if it is becuase the Linksys rounter is old or what. itunes, linksys, and xp are all so popular someone must have figured out how to do this. I spoke to someone at the apple store who said it could be done but he did not know how. I am looking for some relitivly clear instructions.
    Maybe I am searching for the wrong thing terms but cant seem to figure out it it is possible and how to do it with this set up. I dont know why it is not as easy as conecting the linksys router to the airport router with a cat5 cable and then the airport router to my stero.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Do I need to log into my linksys router and do anything?
    No
    2)It only allows computers with listed MAC addresses.
    OK, you will need to make a change. The best solution is to disable this feature since it offers no real security. If you don't want to do that, you must add the MAC address of the wireless interface of the AX to that list.
    3)does not broadcast its name (i thnk this is called SSID).
    This doesn't have to change. However you should be aware that this offers no security. The SSID is still broadcast between the base station and any connected clients. Therefore it only takes a few seconds to find the SSID and access your network.
    Sometimes this option does cause problems with wireless connections.
    If you want to secure your network, forget about hiding the SSID and MAC address filtering. Use WPA2 or WPA with a non-dictionary password... if your wireless devices support it.

  • Linksys befw11s4 v4 password won't change

    I cannot change the password on my linksys befw11s4 v4.  I go to the screen to change it, I type in the new password and reenter/confirm and select apply, then it tells me that changes are successful and it will reroute me back to the previous page in 5 seconds.  When it goes back to the previous page, the password hasn't changed and I haven't successfully secured the router.  It's still showing the router as unsecured.  Any suggestions?

    Clear your browser's cache, turn off any software firewall and try again. You can also try doing it on a different computer.
    The box said windows xp or better... So I installed Linux!

  • Linksys BEFW11S4 v4

    Hi,
    I have a Linksys BEFW11S4 that works just fine, or so I think. Currently there are 2 desktops and a PS3 connected to the router via cat-5. One desktop has Win Vista/Win 7 (both 32-bit Home) installed and the other desktop has XP Home. I recently got a Dell N5010 laptop with Win 7 Home 64-bit installed on it. I'm trying to set up the wireless network so I can use the laptop upstairs, but after setting up WEP and WPA, I can either NOT connect to the internet on the laptop, or when I do connect, the desktop with the dual OSes gets kicked off the internet, then the laptop disconnects, and I have to reset the router in order to get online with the desktop. I've searched everywhere for a solution. Everything is set to obtain an IP automatically, I've tried doing manual configuration, I've made sure firmware for the router is up-to-date, all network adapters have the latest drivers, I can use the laptop when it's wired to the router. The laptop has an Intel WiFi Link 1000 BGN adapter installed. Drivers are the latest, status says it's working properly. Like I mentioned before, I can use the laptop and everything else wired to the router when security is disabled, but I, personally, do not want my network unsecure.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Yes, I am able to connect without any problems when the network is unsecure. Setting the security to WEP worked. The last time I tried that, it kept saying Limited Access, so that was probably user error and me not putting the code in correctly. Firmware version is 1.52.03. There aren't any other wireless devices on the network since the PS3 is connected to the internet via a cat-5 cable.
    Is it safe to use WEP instead of WPA?

  • SB6121 modem & Linksys BEFW11S4 router compatability?

    I know it's an old router, but after upgrading my service to 30mbps, I only get about 5mbps even with the direct wired hookup from the router. I get ~25mbps with the router removed, so the modem is working OK. I checked for the firmware upgrade, and I already have the latest installed.
    Since this router is a 10/100, I think I should do better, at least with the wired connection (I may have to put up with slower speeds on my wireless connection with the laptop). Is there something I can do to realize the potential of my new ISP account?
    Win Vista
    Linksys BEFW11S4 router
    Motorola SB6121 modem

    Buy a new router and put the Linksys BEFW11S4 out to pasture.

    You're spending hundreds each year on internet service and now you have a fast service. I think you need a router with a big CPU.

  • Linksys BEFW11S4 Connection Issues

    I have my laptop and my Xbox 360 currently hooked up to this router trough ethernet cables (yes I know it's a very old model, but it's all I have for the time being). I'm having issues with connection that I know is on the router end because the router I had before (that has now gone bad) connected fine, but this one has issues. Literally almost every hour on the dot, the connection goes out and will immediately come back on as soon as I simply unplug the router and plug it back in. Basically, I have to turn the router off and on every hour to continue to stay connected all day, every day. What's going on here?

    Have you confirmed that the router has the latest firmware installed? You can check the Download section on this page.
    You may want to try resetting to defaults, and reloading the configuration to try and resolve this problem.

  • Linksys WRT160N Online Downloading issues Please help!!

    Ok guys im a newbie to this Networking way of life.
    Your help is greatly needed and appreciated here is my problem.
    Equipment= Comcast motorola modem/Linksys WRT160N Wireless router/Linksys WGA600N wireless gaming adapter
    The issue here is i do alot of online gaming through my Xbox 360 console i can host a variety of matches online and for hours and hours at a time no lag what so ever but as you know on the Xbox360 dashboard they incorporate a wide range of downloaded content whether it be for your game library or media when I click on content to download no matter the size of the file the speed is terrible it takes about 5-10mins to get from 1% to 3% and just sits there for even a longer period of time as it is at this rate I will have to wait anywhere from 1-2hrs to download a demo or a video or netflix movie. I've contacted tech supp on this and trouble shooted different scenarios I have also port forwarded the ports and I'm still having this issue. 
    The Wireless router is located 15feet away from the gaming adapter FYI 
    Please advise!!!!   

    This may be a little old, but I have a WGA600N and a WRT610N..  I've had much the same problems but here is what I've discovered that may help.
    The WGA600N in the initial setup connected to your computer doesnt have a means of specifying exactly how you want to connect to your wireless (no channel, band, etc).  What ends up happening is that you set your wireless on your router to be "mixed" and the adapter will constantly switch channels.
    I went so far as to specify on my 5ghz band on the router that it be "N-Only" and the adapter still gave sluggish performance.
    On a whim, after reading some advice I re-setup my adapter and gave it a static IP address outside of the range of my DHCP settings.  This still gave me no better performance.
    Then, I decided to try hitting the static IP of the adapter in my browser, and voila!  I can access all the advanced settings of the adapter that you couldn't during the initial setup connected to the computer.  My adapter is using the 1.00 release and I'm able to finally tell the adapter to use "N-Only" as it defaults to "Mixed" mode and will channel surf on you dropping connections.
    Having played with both my WGA600N and WRT610N, I can hope for a better firmware release soon but hopefully these tips help you set up your adapter and router a bit better.
    Good luck!
