Linksys WGR614 v9 wireless connection?

I hooked up this router after not using it for a couple years. I changed the default password, Changed the Security Options to WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES] and entered the passphrase on my desktop to secure the network. I turned on my laptop and attempted to connect to the network I get the error message "The settings saved on this computer for the network do not match the requirements of the network". I'm sure Ive missed some step or made a mistake along the way, but would really like to connect to my router using my laptop wirelessly. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You must be mistaken, that is for a different brand.

  • Linksys ea3500 dropping wireless connection

    Hello,
    I have a very frustrating problem.  I am using a brand new Linksys EA3500.  We have 2 laptops connecting to it.  One is an older XP machine which never has any problem.  The other, a Vista machine, periodically drops the connection to the internet when connecting wirelessly.  It never loses the connection to the Linksys EA3500 router, it just says "Access: local" and there is no internet.  If I plug the Vista machine in wired to the router it works fine.  I've tried my old router and I don't get this problem, which leads me to believe that my wireless adapter is functioning properly on the Vista machine. 
    When the vista machine drops the internet, I can still get into the router configuration at 192.168.1.1, but when I click on the tab which says wireless it sometimes says:  "Router not found.  You are not connected to your router."  It says this despite the fact that I am connected to the router???
    I've tried reinstalling Windows, that didn't make any difference.  I am convinced that it is a problem with the router, but I can't find any settings to adjust which remedy the situation.  Of coarse, I've tried reseting my modem and Router many times...doesn't resolve the issue.  I've also gone into DOS and done an ipconfig release_all and renew_all.
    I work in IT and I understand the basics of TCP/IP and DHCP.  When I connect wired with the vista laptop my ip is 192.168.1.112, when wireless it is 192.168.1.142.  Please advise.
    Thank you

    Are you using the classic firmware or the linksys smartwifi? If the other laptop is working fine, I would say that the router is working fine. But to make sure that everything all things are covered, try to change the wireless settings of the router as well as update the adapter on the laptop that’s experiencing the problem. For the wireless settings of the router, you may try: channel width: 20MHz only; channel: 1, 3, 6, or 9; security: wpa2 personal.

  • Can't Connect to Linksys Admin over wireless connection

    I just purchased a LinkSys WRT54GX2. Setting up the wireless network with my DSL modem was a breeze. However, I have one problem. I am only able to connect to the router admin from the computer that is connected by cable. My laptop can access the admin if connected by cable. However, when I have it connected wirelessly, it can't connect. Is there a particular setting I have forgotten?

    They only recommend doing settings wired. Now, I have usually been able to do whatever I wanted wireless, but I consider that a bonus.

  • Linksys E3000 dropping wireless connections

    I know others have posted this and I have followed the advice I could find:
    Set channel manually - i've tried all the channels no help
    Different SSIDs for 5g and 2.4g
    Beacon Interval 50
    Fragmentation threshold 2306
    RTS Threshold 2304
    I'm running firmware 1.0.04 build 6   <script type="text/javascript"></script> Dec 6, 2010
    I've had the router for 4 months now and this has been happening for the last 3.
    Any assistance would be appreciated. 

    As per the scenario that you explained that even after upgrading the firmware the connection drops... But after upgrading the firmware did you reset the Router and configured it back...So for better connectivity reset the Router and configure it again as per the ISP ( Internet Service Provider ) setup...
    While setting up the router reduce the MTU size to 1400 from auto...
    For Channel Settings of 2.4 GHz you can make Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 6, 9, 11..
    For Channel Settings of 5 GHz you can make Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 40 or 161..
    Then click on Security tab disable SPI Firewall Protection, uncheck Filter Anonymous Internet Requests...
    Disable all the anti-virus and security centers...
    After doing all these settings then check the condition...

  • Wireless connection drops sporadically

    I have a Linksys router that wirelessly connects my iBook G4 and my roommate's G4 tower. It also connects to my G4 tower, but that's a wired connection.
    I used to use a Linksys Wireless-B (2.4 ghz 802.11b), but it broke and now I have a Wireless-G. But, both router's gave me the exact same problem. Sporadically, the wireless connection just drops for about 5 or 6 seconds. I haven't seen any pattern, as far as how often it occurs, and I can't for the life of me figure out why it's happening.
    I was told that it might be interference, so I changed the channel to 11, and everything seemed to work great for about 3 or 4 days. Then, it started happening again. I switched to channel 1, and that didn't help. I switched to a different channel, again no help. Now I'm back on 11, and it's still dropping off sporadically.
    I'm pretty sure this never happens to the wired connection, but I don't use that computer very often. Any suggestions? This has been going on for months, and I don't have the faintest idea how to fix it!

    I am with you Joel.
    I recently purchased a G5 iMac with built-in AirPort and I am having the same problem. Yes I have a cordless phone in the house and it could be interfering, but I also have a Windows laptop (I know, I know...Booo) which is on the same wireless network and it has no trouble communicating. I have tried different channels on my router and the Mac works for awhile, but then the connection starts and stops.
    I was hoping the latest firmware updates for AirPort would have one for the Extreme card, but no go.
    I haven't yet sat the wireless router right next to the computer to see if that cures the "interference", but that is the next step in my troubleshooting. If the pulsing internet stops pulsating and I get a constant connection I will believe all the interference rhetoric, but until then I am sceptical.
    Note: I also tried the "Interference Robustness" setting and that just made it worse. There doesn't seem to be much help on that setting so I have abandoned it. Any insight from anyone on that setting?

  • Unable to access wireless connection with linksys rooter WRT54GS

    Hi,
    I just installed a wireless rooter Linksys WRT54GS on my connection, The problem I have is being able to access it with my wireless on my laptop.
    I kept getting a message stating "connection unindentified" "access limited". I've done most of what is already suggested on your forum such has turning the power off of my rooter, my modem and such and still nothing. I'm able to access the wireless with my girlfriend Mac Notebook, my playstation 3 and my desktop computer which uses Windows X. First I thought that it my be a problem with my security but even when the connection is unprotected I still get that error. I try to disable the IpV6but that didn'tdo anything either.
    My laptop is a Toshiba Qosmio X300 PQX32C-033019 with Vista and my rooter is a Linksys WRT54GS vers. 6
    Here's my connection log, sorry if it's in French:

  • Wireless connection w/linksys to Comcast?

    I am trying to connect my daughter;s Linksys router to her Comcast cable DSL but am having trouble making the wireless connection. Do I have to change her settings in the computer to make this work? If so, what needs to be changed. I know Linksys works with other connections because I use one in my home, Thanks.

    You actually need to provide more information. Comcast cable is not a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) so I will assume you arent connecting through a DSL Modem. So... Just plug the Linksys into the Comcast modem. Stick in an ethernet cord into the linksys and the other end into a computer. Open a web browser and type in 192.168.1.1
    This will take you to the Linksys administration page.
    Default User Name: admin
    Default Password: admin
    On the router: Make sure wireless networking is on and set to DHCP. You can also set up Encryption later by following the same directions to enter the router.
    Sounds more complex than it is. If you are new to this, don't woryy, u cant break anything by messing with the settings.
    To connect to it with your mac: Click on the little radar at the top right of your screen and choose the linksys router (whatever the network name is). You may have to enable DHCP on your daughter's computer if for exampe it has a manual ip address...
    But I dont want to get to complex on you.. yet.

  • Linksys E2500 and Mavericks wireless connection

    Installed Mavericks and lost wireless connection with my linksys e2500. 
    Cisco connect says "unsupported operating system"  and "visit http://homesupport.cisco.com/linksys/support"
    Cisco website does not address Mavericks OS

    I'm having the same issue with my Cisco Linksys router.
    I am unable to connect to the wifi network, or use the Cisco Connect application. As the application is the only way of adding and removing devices from the network, changing the password, and likely fixing this issue, I'm quite frustrated.
    I phoned Cisco about this issue yesterday and they had no helpful information. They advised me to download the newest Connect software from their website, and stated this should fix the issue. I told them that I'd already attempted this solution, but their software has only been updated to include a compatibility fix with 10.8, and the issue is with 10.9. They then advised that I restart my computer. AKA, they would be no further help.
    The Connect software is available for download here, so I hope that they release an update soon with a fix to this problem. The release notes under the latest update include a mention of the 10.8 compatibility fix, so I hope a 10.9 fix will be forthcoming.
    The only solution in the meantime seems to be a complete restart and install of the router and software using a PC. And even this only works to correct the Cisco Connect issue, and likely not the main issue of actually using the wifi network with Mavericks. Regardless, I believe this is a Cisco/Linksys issue, and not an Apple issue.

    I recently purchased an iMac and at the same time purchased a Netgear wireless router.
    When hardwired to the Netgear, I have no issues. I tried connecting via wireless, and keep getting the self-assigned ip address. My wireless network is detected and the Airport card connects...full strength. I also have a laptop running windowsXP, and it connects with no issues.
    I have tried some of the suggestions mentioned in the discussions. Power cycled the Netgear. Changed channels...from 11 to 10. That didn't help so I went back to channel 11. I have security disabled...trying to keep the configuration as simple as possible until I can get this working.
    If anyone can share some thoughts/ideas, it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    -Tim

    I had to go into /Library/Preferences and dragged SystemConfiguration to my desktop. I restarted the iMac.
    After it booted up, I went into System Preferences => Network; created a new Location and used the "Assist Me" tab at the bottom. It walked me through setting up the Airport again and this time it worked.
    For anyone that does this, once you confirm your wireless connection is working, take the SystemConfiguration on the desktop and drag it to the Trash.

  • Printer 'offline' when actually not on wireless connection laptop

    I have an Officejet Pro L7590, connected via a wired connection to my Linksys router.
    My laptop runs Windows 7 32-bit Home Premium and is wireless connected to my router.
    When I double-click the printer in 'Devices and Printers'. It shows 'printer offline'
    When I print a document it goes to the queue, but doesn't printer.
    I have already tried the following:
    . re-install the printer
    . install the printer as local printer, with as port the IP address of the printer
    . install the printer as networkprinter
    . run the Diagnostic tools provided by HP
    But still the same problem.
    When I connect my laptop via a wired connection to my router (without changing anything to me printer settings) the printer is 'online' and works fine.
    How can I make the printer work when my laptop has a wireless connection?

    Hi there,
    Try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03275041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
    It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on.
    Best of Luck!

  • Having a problem with wireless connection. On my Windows XP 32 bit system and a 6510 printer, initi

    On my Dell Latitude D620, Windows XP 32 bit system and my 6510 printer wireless connection (Linksys EA4500) , everything works fine after the computer is booted.  After a period of time (usually overnight), I lose connection to the printer (the scanner icon with a red x is shown on my Windows task bar and I can't print.  Ran Windows Fix and the HP fix programs.  The only thing that solves it is to reboot the computer.  A second symptom is that my IE8 stops connecting to the internet at the same time (gives a 'waiting for' response that never changes).  Firefox still connects OK when this is happening.  So I suspect the problem isn't with the printer, but with my Windows set up.  It is a fresh XP SP3 install (hard drive crashed, but it happened before also).  I reset IE, checked my proxy, no malware, happens with or without firewalls and security programs.
    Hoping that someone else has run into this problem.  Been all over Google, and the IE doesn't work / Firefox works is fairly common, but none of the fixes helps. 

    If you want you can reload Firefox 4.0 or the last "old" version is 3.6.16 and is available here:
    http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    Just reinstall your choice of FF. The bookmarks are in a different directory and are NOT overwritten. Some of the Add-ons that worked in 3.6 DO NOT work with 4.0, pay attention and head any warnings when you start 4.0.
    I had to disable extensions: Flashblock and WOT
    Firefox SafeMode? - A troubleshooting mode.
    1.You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the Shft key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.

  • I lose wireless connectivity when I connect the nano to my PC

    I have a DSL modem connected by ethernet cable to a Linksys wireless router. My PC has USB linksys antenna. The wireless connection works fine except when I plug in the Nano, it takes about two seconds and I lose the connection to the router. If we are in itunes downloading it is suspended. If we are on the internet the next click and the Microsoft "you are not connected to the internet" page comes up. To reestablish the internet connection I have to remove the nano and reboot the PC. Needless to say this is very frustrating.
    If I reboot with the cable attached I get an error unable to run an ____.exe that I believe is the antenna setup because the linksys monitor stays gray in the startup box.
    I have tried to move the antenna to a different USB port on the PC with no luck. Everything else runs fine.
    Does anyone out there have any ideas/fixes? - Your assistance is greatly appreciated!

    thanks deggie for your answer.
    I had my ipod with autosync off ... I set it "manage like disk" .
    I try to recover the music with 2 programs: "ephod" and "copy trans" ..
    I can see all the songs listed, but can´t backup to disk or recover them......  
    I see than my ipod hasn´t the folder  "ipod_control" , which appears before I had this problem....
    Any idea ??? Thanks again.

  • New 6500 E709n loses wireless connection when it or laptop sleeps... & other problems!

    Just got this printer and am hoping we can get it to work because we really like it.  I believe we've done everything right - it is connected to PC via USB, and to laptop via wireless network.  Both computers are Dells running XP.  Our wireless router is a Linksys Wireless-G WRT54G.  We installed the disk on both.  Immediately after installing on the laptop by plugging in USB and then unplugging, we were able to get it to work.  We printed and scanned from both . . . UNTIL the printer went into power save mode.
    When it sleeps it loses all the network connections (but will still print from PC).  Even the icons disappear from the laptop after it sleeps.  The only way to get it to work with the laptop again is to start all over, plug in the laptop, enter the WPA key again, and so on.  Then it's finebut for just a short while.  Now, when I registered my protection plan, I was on the phone with a techie guy and asked him if it's normal to have to keep entering the key every time you want to print, and he actually said that maybe I shouldn't let the printer sleep - wow! I want to conserve energy, so I may even want to shut it off, okay, and I don't feel I should have to go through this rigamarole every time I want the darn thing to just be available to the network.  Furthermore, what's the sense of having to turn "Wireless Radio" on and off all the time???
    Anyway, there are other problems and the menus in the internal web browser is about as confusing as it can be.  Is the passphrase the same as a WPA key?  There's a passphrase in there which I did not enter, and I don't know what it is because it's been disguised with dots.  When I enter the WPA key on the front panel of the printer, it doesn't stick.  One thing I noticed in the instructions is to keep telephones away from it, so I moved ours (was right next to it) but it's still being ornery.
    In addition, the scan function only works from the software, not as a standalone if I use the front panel.  When using the button on the front panel, sometimes it sees the laptop, sometimes it doesn't, and then it starts to scan, but a menu pops up on the computer asking to update the buttons, and then nothing happens.
    Have we a clunker on our hands that should be returned, or is there a remedy?  All suggestions welcome!

    Let me answer the easy stuff first:
    Yes, the passphrase is the same as the WPA-PSK key.
    No, it's not normal to have to re-enter the wireless security key over and over again.  Politely tell our service agent that he is mistaken on this point.
    There's no sense in having to turn the radio on and off all the time to get the printer to remain on the network.
    When the printer goes into power-save mode, can you still access the printer's internal web page by browsing to it's IP address?  When the printer loses wireless connectivity, can you wake the printer by pressing any of the buttons on the front panel?
    I have a couple more questions:
    What WRT54G HW version do you have (it'll be on the bottom label of the router)?
    What version of FW does your router have?  You'll have to browse to the router's internal web page to find out.
    Finally, change the WPA-PSK group key renewal period to the largest value possible.  Tell if this affects the frequency of printer losing Wi-Fi connectivity?
    One more question.  After you have the printer connected to your wireless network and it's working, if you turn the printer off (via the power button), wait five seconds then unplug it then plug it back in and turn it on, does it connect to your network?

  • MacBook loses wireless connection when iPod touch connects to network

    hi
    ever since upgrading to 10.5.5. on my MacBook i've had the "intermittent network connection" problems that have been described and discussed (without any real solution from what i can see) in another thread.
    PROBLEM: every couple of minutes my MacBook loses connectivity to the network - the AirPort icon still says that i'm connected, albeit with one less bar than before, but i can't connect to anywhere, not even to the wireless router - and to re-establish a connection i need to switch off AirPort, switch it back on, it will then reconnect, and after two minutes or so i have to do it all over again because the network connection drops again.
    NOVEL OBSERVATION 1: reinstalling the 10.5.5. combo system updater helped somewhat. i used to get an error in system.log about there being too many state transitions on the wireless network and about network traffic reduction measures being taken to overcome this problem, but after reinstalling the 10.5.5. combo system updater this message never appears in the logs and I get kicked off only sometimes (see what i say in point 2 below)
    NOVEL OBSERVATION 2: now my MacBook will only lose its connection to the net if i switch on my iPod Touch and switch its wireless interface on. in fact, the only way to avoid the MacBook getting constantly disconnected is to make sure that the wireless interface on the Touch is switched off in the Touch's system preferences; if I just sleep the Touch (top button) without switching off its wireless network interface first in its System Preferences, then the MacBook will keep disconnecting even while the Touch is in sleep mode (presumably the Touch keeps polling the network or something, even while it's in sleep mode).
    DIAGNOSTIC NOTE 1: I have another wireless device (my Nokia E51, which has wifi capabilities) and if I connect it to the wireless interface then the MacBook's connection isn't dropped - i.e. the MacBook only loses its wireless connection when my iPod Touch connects to the wireless network.
    DIAGNOSTIC NOTE 2: I have upgraded my wireless router (before I had a Linksys WRT-54GC, now I have a Netgear WGR614v9) but that has made no difference.
    DIAGNOSTIC NOTE 3: I have also tried altering the router's settings (i have played around a_lot with this, trying every combination I could think of - e.g. staple down particular devices to particular ip addresses, use only 802.11g versus automatic b/g, etc) but that has made no difference either.
    RANT:
    The only thing that prevents these disconnections from occurring is to keep the iPod Touch's wireless switched off, which ***** because if I'm in the kitchen I can't have it switched on to monitor my email (yes, I've no life, i hang around waiting for emails), or if I go have a lie down and want to check out stuff on the net, or to browse the iTunes music store or whatever, then I know that my connecting my iPod Touch the computer will be disconnected.
    This obviously *****, right? And a lot of people are having wireless problems with their MacBooks, right? And these problems seem to have been around for over a year, right?
    So why hasn't Apple solved this problem yet? Or am I just being melodramatic?
    Your thoughts on any or all of the above, or flames if that's your preferred method of communicating, are invited. =)
    Cheers

    Having the same problem here. As a first time mac user, Apple has certainly made a bad first impression.
    For me, the issue seems to occur when transferring files between computers that are connected to the same access point (when transferring files from wired computers on the network there is no issue). My vista laptop and every laptop I have tried has worked perfectly fine with this access point so I am 100% convinced it is the mac. Basically when I copy the files, after about 100mb, I am unable to access anything on the local network or internet until I restart Airport. The weird thing is that even though I am unable to access anything, the airport utility says it is connected. I might also note that the wireless signal strength is full.
    If I can't get this figured out in a few days, this computer is going back to the store where it came from and I will officially label myself anti-mac. This type of issue is just unacceptable for something so main stream.

  • WRT54G No longer available as Wireless Connection, Cat5 connect without issue

    Without changing a single setting I can only appear to go wireless on the neighbors unsecured network OR plug in the old Cat5 leash.  My network no longer appears as an option when attempting to connect wireless.  It's consistent across two laptops.  Any ideas?

    This appears to be similiar to my problem.  The router worked fine via wired connections but the wireless connections failed.  The real problem was that the router was not issuing IP addresses to any clients connected via wireless.
    The clients recognized the router and connected utilizing WEP 128 bit encryption.  However, the DHCP in the router never issued an IP address thus no connection to the internet.
    As it turned out it appears to be related to the latest firmware update issued by Linksys.  In my case 201.13 for the WRT54G3G-ST sold by Sprint.  I ended up at one point with 2 routers from Spring and both of them had the same problem after upgrading the router firmaware.
    To get around the problem I had to perform a hard reset and restore the router to factory defaults.  I can change the router name without issue as long as the name is 8 characters or less.  I was utilizing the name of spiderweb and that causes the problem.  The client PC's would see spiderweb and connect but never got an IP address.  Also activating WEP in either 64 or 128 bit encryption causes the same problem so I am currently running the system in "open" mode.
    Hopefully the next firmware update release will have these issues addressed.
