Linksys router ezxs55w and wireless g access point

My laptop has suddenly stopped seeing my wireless connection. I can see the ones that belong to the neighbors, but not mine. Have rebooted computers, reset access point (even bought a new one but nothing changed) unplugged, etc to no avail. HELP! Do I need a new router? The led lights are green for link/act and 100, orange for full/col. The connection has worked with no problems for close to a year. Thank You

Whats the Model number of the Access Point? When you search for the Wireless Networks on your computers are you able to locate (linksys) under the wireless networks?
EZXS55W is a Swtich. So you have connected the Access point to the Switch? and where the switch is connected, is it connected to the Router or to the Modem? Who is your ISP.

Hi, My name is Eric Moyers. I am a Network Support Engineer in the Cisco Small Business Support Center. Thank you for using the Cisco Community Post Forums.
Under Wireless/Security how do you have the Wireless Isolation configured?
Wireless Isolation (within SSID) should be disabled to allow wireless computers associated to the same SSID to see and transfer files between each other

WAP2000 Wireless-G Access Point (Setup Help)

Hi,
We have a wireless-g access point typically (and previously, in this case) used for a small business. We were given the device for free and wanted to reset the device to use as our wireless router at home. First and foremost, can a wireless access point double as a home wireless router? I was told that only one computer/laptop at a time can connect to a wireless access point, unlike a wireless router which allows multiple devices to connect to a wireless home network at a time? Is this true?
Second, because the device is not new, we no longer have the setup instructions. Upon resetting the device (holding down the reset button for 10 or more seconds), we were unable to access the WAP2000 online setup page for a username and password. The device is being picked up by our macbooks and shows up in the Airport as "linksys-g." However, we are unable to access the setup page or communicate with the access point. We have tried typing http://198.162.1.1/ in our address bar, but have had no luck.
Do you have any suggestions as to how to set up the device? Also, can this device double as a router that will allow multiple laptops and devices (i.e. sony playstation) to access and use the wireless network simultaneously.
Thank you for your help.

Sam,
First yes you won't to factory reset the unit. You should hold down the reset button longer than 30 seconds and no longer than 45.Once this is back to factory default, the current ip address should be 192.168.1.245 , you will need to statically assign your pc an address in 192.168.1.1 /24 range and make sure you are plugged directly into WAP2000. Now you should be able to access the AP. Default username = admin password = admin
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/csbap/wap2000/quick_start/guide/WAP2000_Quick_Start_Guide.pdf
Above is a quick start guide for reference.
Now just configure accordingly.
Thanks,

Bridge to bridge and bridge to access-point via wireless is it possible.

here;s my topology i am trying to configure. i have a router whose ethernet is connected to a bridge.this bridge 1 is connected to a bridge 2 via wireless. now i am trying to connect a access-point via wireless to this bridge2. is it possible for bridge 2 to support connectivity to the bridge1 and the access-point both of them via wireless.
can someone pls help me on this.
waiting for someone to reply.

You can set up each radio in the access point for different functionality. Considering the scenario, this can be done by setting up the SSID for the G radio and another SSID for the A radio. Then, set the role in the radio network parameter for the G radio to access point and for the A radio to the root bridge role.
ou can prevent unauthorized users from reconfiguring your access point/bridge and viewing configuration information. Typically, you want network administrators to have access to the access point/bridge while you restrict access to users who connect through a terminal or workstation from within the local network.
To prevent unauthorized access to your access point/bridge, you should configure one of these security features:
Username and password pairs, which are locally stored on the access point/bridge. These pairs authenticate each user before that user can access the access point/bridge. You can also assign a specific privilege level (read only or read/write) to each username and password pair.

Setting up wireless Cisco Access Points independently and network layout

Hello,
I am technician in a school. I have been asked to upgrade wireless system in school. Currently I am using VDSL2 30Mbps line. I am using E4200 Router, which is providing internet services. The school has 3 floors. On one floor I have this router which is further attached with 16 port gigabit unmanageable switch. The same router is providing wireless service on the same floor using Class C ip address. From the switch I have extended a cable and took it on to another (second floor), where I have got one more gigabit switch. From that switch I have connected one router using different subnet and further i have attached two access points for the entire floor, which is working ok. From the same switch I have extended one more cable up to third floor where I have connected one more access point. So, 3 access points on three floors, 2 switches and two router. This is the current network layout.
Now school have decided to go over to fiber. ISP is going to put Juniper router and going to create vlan and will configure access restrictions. School will have 100Mbps unlimited up and download speed. Its because of increase in number of students. School is still waiting for the router and configuration to be done.
I have got 4 cisco 1602i access points (AIR-SAP1602I-Z-K9). These access points are POE supported. I have got one 8 port POE switch also. When I got these 4 cisco I didnt get power adapters with them. First I want to ask, is this normal. Don't they usually come with power adapter. I know they are POE, but cisco doesn't send them with power adapters.
Second I want to ask, if these access points can work independent without WLAN controller. Or do i have to have WLAN controller.
As fiber is not up yet so, for the time being I have connected these access points with POE switch using Cat5E cable and then further connected the POE switch with normal gigabit switch, which is further conneted with router at this point.
Please tell me if I am doing it correctely. I will also be needing help with the configuration.
Can anyone tell me how to setup these access points independently for current situation to provide internet access. How to set them on different channels etc......
Also want to know if there is any software that can detect access points and can help me manage these access points.
I shall be thankful.

Wireless bridging is not working in 1552 outdoor access point and 2602e indoor access point.

Hi,
I am have been tested wireless bridging with 2 indoor Cisco 2602 access point by following the attached document and its working fine without any issue.
After then I made one Cisco 1552 EU-M-K9 outdoor access point as RAP, then connect to this RAP with one 2602 mesh access point. But its not working, mesh access point is just start scan the signal to get associate with RAP, but not getting established. Is there any specific configuration required to connect between outdoor and indoor access point. Kindly find the attachment and advise.

Setting up a netgear n300 as wireless bridge/access point with airport extremee

I just replaced my netgear wireless router with the airport to allow our many devices on the network without knocking each other off and also increase the speed. But would like to use the netgear as a wireless bridge or access point so that I can still connect my NTFS formatted hard drive to be shared on the network. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I can not seem to find my netgear router with 192.168.1.1 as that comes up with another device. I have tried doing this with a windows laptop in another room but can not seem to make it work. I am now hooked up directly to the airport thinking i need to do it that way and still no luck. Please help.

As long as you intend to do this over ethernet it will work.. you cannot easily wireless repeat or bridge to an apple router.. you would need specific hardware to do it.
What is the exact model of netgear you have?
The setup method depends on the functionality of the router.. but lets assume it does not have a bridge or WAP mode.
You use WAN bypass.
1. Setup the Netgear with IP address in the correct IP range for the rest of the network.. it is hard to talk generalities so lets say the apple is main router and your network is now 10.0.1.x .. then set the Netgear to 10.0.1.250 (apple uses IP 2-200 by default) you can use any value you like outside the DHCP range. Up to the limit which is 254 as long as you keep track of all static IP devices. Apply this setting and power cycle the router.. and you might need to power cycle the computer as well to pick up the new IP.
2. Turn off the DHCP server in the Netgear. You may lose connection to the netgear now.. do not worry about it.. (this can be combined with one.. if you firstly turn off dhcp before you change the IP.. but whatever is possible.. at some point you will need to change around and if you forget what IP .. you will be in a mess.. so write it on a label and stick on the base of the router.. also without dhcp you will either need to reset router to factory using reset button or use static ip on the computer. )
3. Plug ethernet from LAN of the main router to LAN of the Netgear. Reboot the whole network is often necessary.
4. In your computer plugged somewhere in the network.. open browser and go to the address you set.. 10.0.1.250 in my example.
5. You can then setup the Netgear to do whatever you like.. DIsk access is fine.. wireless is fine.. it just cannot be a router.
Many many reboots if you get lost. Hit reset and start over.

Take a look at my suggested config below. The first accesspoint will broadcast a SSID for clients and use a different SSID for the bridge. This setup has no 802.1x mechanism yet, but you can add that later. For the topology see PtoPLinkExample.gif posted earlier.
----- Accesspoint 1 --------------
dot11 ssid bridge
authentication open
dot11 ssid WiFiNet
authentication open
guest-mode
interface Dot11Radio0
ssid bridge
ssid WiFiNet
----- Accesspoint 2 --------------
dot11 ssid bridge
authentication open
interface Dot11Radio0
parent 1
ssid bridge
station-role workgroup-bridge
----- Accesspoint 3 --------------
dot11 ssid WiFiNet
authentication open

Configure my router to be just an access point.

I have a WRT54GL router which I would like to use as an access point. How do I configure it to work as an access point?

Give the wireless router an IP address within the subnet of your network and disable DHCP on it; you should then be able to use it just as a Wireless Access Point.
For example, router #1 (main router) has an IP address of 192.168.1.1. Router #2 (designated Access Point) needs to be configured to have an IP address of 192.168.1.2. Disable the DHCP server on Router #2, as DHCP addressing will be handled on Router #1. Router #2 is now a wireless access point.

WRT54Gv7 and 2 Netgear Access Points WG602

Hi,
is it possible with a WLAN Broadband Router Linksys WRT54Gv7 and with 2 Netgear Access Points WG602 configure a Multi Point Bridging?
is it right that the WRT54G version 7 can not be upgraded to a own Firmware?
does the WRT54G version 7 supporting WDS?
thank you very much.

the router can only be configured as an access point..it cannot be configured in repeater or bridge mode...
also , i don't think that it can be upgraded to a third party firmware ..

Wireless-G Access Point HELP!

Ok, I currently am running my office with highspeed internet. I have the Internet running into the Router and than into the Wireless Access Point. BUT!, I have 2 intruders! Possibly slowing down my internet speed. I need to know how to setup a password protected lock on the wireless networking!
Thanks,
Ryan
NOTE: I did misplace my installation disc for the Access Point!

simple... you just need to open up the set-up page of the access point. by default the IP adress of your access point is 192.168.1.245
to secure the wireless router, follow these steps: (do it on a hard-wired computer)
open a web browser, type in http://192.168.1.245
username: blank, password: admin
go to wireless tab, change SSID, set channel to 11, then save settings
go to wireless security subtab, enable it, then select a security mode, example WEP 64 bit. in the key 1, type in a 10 digit characters (0-9 , a-f), then save the settings
to connect to a secured wireless network
right click on your wireless network connection icon (commonly a single computer icon, found at the bottom system tray where the clock is located at)
view available wireless network, if the network name(SSID) shows up, connect to it, then type in the exact key. confirm it then connect. once connected, try to go online. and that's it

Placement and Location of Access Points

We are just starting a new build on our school, included on this is the installation of wireless over the top of our existing network.
I have read that cisco and other vendors supply free software to automate the placements of wireless access points, but I can't find it anywhere?
Any ideas or advice?
Thanks

WLSE can help you to adjust the radio coverage. However, WLSE is not free.
We usually recommend you to hire a third party vendor to do a site survey. The vendor will take various antennas with them. They put different antennas in different positions; so that it gives you the best coverage. Finally, the vendor will give you a blue print and tell you the placement of APs/antennas.

E90 / E51 (and other?) --Access point groups-- ar...

Hi All
I‘ve seen that in the new E51 the Access point groups are gone.
In my (older) E70 the Access point groups are installed and they are GREAT.
It’s a pity, that they are gone, because you waste much money to your provider, and you lose connection-performance.
Now in the E90 and E51 (AND PERHAPS IN THE UPCOMING PHONES) the possibility of building groups is not available.
It’s a shame for a business Phone.
You don’t know, what “Access point groups” are?
Here the explanation of the E70’s manual:
Email data roaming
Access point groups.
Your device allows roaming between wireless access technologies, such as WLAN and GPRS, for e-mail. For example, you can
start an e-mail session at home and continue the session on your way to work. While your session continues uninterrupted,
your handheld device switches from WLAN to GPRS and back to WLAN when you arrive at your workplace.
In result: You have a quick and free connection at home (Wifi), you go outside, the phone switches automatically to e.g GPRS, you come in the office, the phone switches automatically to your company’s WIFI.. etc.
You pay only the short time outside, and you don’t have to worry about changing connections.
Let us motivate NOKIA to reintegrate this feature, so they become more professional and businesslike

Regarding cisco 1400 and 1500 outdoor access point doubt

Hi,
I have a requirement of installing 1400 outdoor access point in bridge mode .
client has got three remote offices which will be connected through 1400 outdoor access point.
but i came across about lightweight and autonomous version where i am quite confused.
which version is available in market especially for 1400
If i could get information about 1500 also , it would be great help .
If i want to connect all the remote offices in brigde mode . which will be convinient for me ?
If I could get any link with datasheet for both the access point seperately, it would be great.

Hi,
1500 is for MESH network.. 1400 is for bridging in autonomous mode.. most of the time we use 1400 for bridging between two diffrent sites..
1400 bridges do not work in LWAPP mode.. its always Autonomous.. where in the 1500 canot work in autonomous as well and needs a WLC..
here is the datasheets for 1400 and 1500..

I want to hard line time capsule to imac so uverse router, modem, and wireless is the primary connection?

i want to hard wire time capsule to imac, so att uverse's modem, router, and wireless is the primary connection. i don't think the competing wireless features will play nice together.

If your goal is to provide Internet access to the iMac via an Ethernet connection to the TC ... and, in turn, have the TC connected by wireless to the Uverse gateway, then as you have already guessed, this combination won't work as the two routers are not WDS compatible. Your only option with this set of networking gear would be to connect the TC to the Uverse gateway by Ethernet.
