Linksys Wireless-B Router & Access Point question

Ok, I have a Linksys wireless B router (cant remember the model name off of the top of my head) and it connected to a desktop that I have.  I just purchased a Buffalo Wireless-G MIMO router which has the ability to act as an access point.  I was wondering if I set the Wireless-B router up to my desktop where my modem is, and then turn on the Access Point feature with my Buffalo router, would the two brands work together or no?  Also, if they did work and the Buffalo router acted as an access point would I be able to connect my PS3 via one of the ethernet port on the back of the Buffalo access point?  Help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
I just purchased this Buffalo router after returning the Linksys Wireless-G with SpeedBooster and having numerous problems with my Verizon DSL (Westell 6100 modem).

Yes you can.  Here is a LINK to use as a reference.  The only thing you will run into is the routers IP's may be different so make sure they are in the same range.  Example router 1:192.168.1.1  and router 2:192.168.1.2 but it may vary depending on what you want your private IP range to be. 
The router you want to set as a AP make sure it has the latest firmware and has the SSID/security all set up.  Make sure the IP for the router is set then disable the DHCP.  Then connect router 1 via numbered port to the number 1 port of the second router.

  • Can't print through wireless hookup. Printer says there is a router/access point channel conflict.

    I cannot print. Printer is wirelessly connected to the airport extreme router.
    My printer says that the network connection passes all tests but there is a note: "A router/access point channgel conflict has been detected.
    The Epson Printer utilitie says only "Communication error". I've tried changing channels to no avail.

    I finally figured out how to fix this after a few weeks of being with out my printers.  I tried the reboot of everything and it didn't work.  I went into the airport utility and start poking around.  I tab through all the various setting and everything looked good.  By virtue of tabbing the "update" button was active.  I hit that and the airport extreme router rebooted and bingo the printer works for all my PCs and MACs.  This seem to have started with the last epson update but who knows.  Good luck

  • MSI AP11b wireless IEEE802.11b Access Point

    hi to all msi admin there and members.
    im new here in this forum can anyone help me to answer my question about MSI AP11b wireless IEEE802.11b Access Point product.
    I'm planning to buy MSI AP11b wireless IEEE802.11b Access Point to  use my new laptop with wireless and enable me to share my internet using ap11b accesspoint..My problem is im using an usb adsl modem with (no Rj45 jack)only USB. so i can only connect my adsl modem to my desktop pc and i want to share my internet to my laptop using the wireless connection,but the problem is i dont know if this MSI AP11b wireless IEEE802.11b Access Point can help me to share my internet connection over my laptop. i have an idea and i dont think if this would work ex. if i buy MSI AP11b wireless IEEE802.11b Access Point and right after then, as usual my desktop pc is currently connected in the internet using my usb adsl modem, i want to use my desktop pc as a server using internet connection sharing(ICS) (im using WinXP) i have ethernet card that is built on my board and which ap11b available is RJ45 JACK im gonna plug my rj45 and connect it to rj45 jack of ap11b.
    is this possible that im going to use my desktop pc to become serve because my adsl modem(USB)(no rj45)r and share my internet using ap11b wireless accesspoint on my wireless laptop?
    anyone i need some good advice in this cases...
     

    yes, you could use ap11b to become server and share internet for your wireless laptop.
    You have to connect the ap11b to your desktop PC ethernet card via RJ45.
    If the ASP can give you more than 2 IP, you can choose "Bridge model" in the "Network Connections" setup.
    If the ASP only give you 1 IP, you should share the Internet Connection.

  • Linksys Wireless N Router w/ Belkin Wireless G Adapter Connection?

    I recently bought a Linksys wireless n router to better serve my two new laptops with wireless n cards. They are now lightning fast and super reliable. However, my desktop, which has a Belkin wireless g card connects about a third as fast and last only about 5-10 minutes before needing to be reconnected, which can cometimes take a while itself. I changed the channel to 11 which helped a little and am running the router on 20 MHz only.
    My previous router was a Belkin wireless G.
    I'm looking for answers/explanations and possible solutions to speeding up my desktop's speed and increasing its reliability w/o jeopardizing my laptops' supreme performance.
    Thanks for your help,
    ~Josh

    Set the Channel Width to 40MHz only,Wide Channel to 9 and Standard Channel to 11-2.462GHz and click on save settings...Under the Advanced Wireless Settings...Change the Beacon Interval to 75,Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304,Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 and Click on Save Settings...Under the Security tab,uncheck.. dw(vs_internetfilter0);Filter Anonymous Internet Requests and click on save settings..Now,power cycle the router and check...

  • Implement a Cisco WAP200E Wireless-G Exterior Access Point

    Hi everybody,
    I am asked to install a Cisco WAP200E Wireless-G Exterior Access Point into my company network infrastructure.
    But there is an issue that I would like you to help me to solution it.
    In fact the AP mentioned above is a PoE device, and our Switch is not PoE (Cisco Catalyst 2960 24TC-L).
    How to make my Wireless device works without having to change my Switch?
    Thank you for helping

    You can get a POE injector & power it without changing the switch.

  • How to use Home Hub 3 as a 2nd router(access point...

    Hi guys hope you can help; I am trying to add my Home Hub 3 as a 2nd router (ie an access point) to my home network and struggling.
    What am I trying to achieve.
    I have a fully functioning home network which is working great but the wireless range does not extend to the room above my garage, some distance away from the main house. I currently service it with an Ethernet link from my E4200 router, via the mains wiring, to link to a PS3 there. But I want to extend this to have a wireless network in the remote room so I can link multiple devices - rather than spend more money, deploying a 2nd router which I already have  is preferable.
    What have I got.
    I have a Linksys E4200 router (nice piece of kit) attached to my ADSL line via a Belkin N1 wireless modem-router set to  “modem only” mode (I was using a DSL modem until yesterday but that went AWOL and digging out the Belkin router I saw that it had a modem only function – and it/they worked first time )
    All of my gear in the house is attached wirelessly to the E4200 which is delivering circa 11.5mbps from a maximum of 12.5mbps for the line measured by BT onsite. So  all is  fine there.
    What have I done to try and use the HH3
    Linked an Ethernet cable between one of the Ethernet ports on the E4200 to a mains plug.
    Linked an Ethernet cable from a mains plug to one of the Ethernet ports on the HH3 router.
    Ie as the PS3 was linked.
    3.  Switched on the HH3 router: the power light is solid blue, the wireless light is solid blue, the broadband light is off
    4. Connected my laptop to the HH3 network and loading up a web page on IE9 displays a web page from bthomehub.home/etc etc with title BT Home Hub and a message “Can’t connect to Broadband”. It is the start of a self- diagnostic routine. Answering all the questions I eventually get a Home Hub Administrative Home Page displayed.
    Is there a quicker way of getting to this admin page??
    5.  I switched off DHCP
    I changed the IP address from 192.168.1.254 to 192.168.1.200 as this seems to be what the other threads on this subject did.
    When I went to apply the change a message came up telling me that I might not be able to access the HH3. I ploughed on disregarding this and needless to say I could not then access the HH3 via the web interface and trying to access a web site nothing happened.
    6.  I did a hardware reset on the HH3
    7. Going through the motions again, when I got to the admin pages again, I switched off DHCP and this time left the IP address alone, ie 192.168.1.254.
    When I went to apply this  I got the message
    “After changing these settings you will need to renew the IP address of all devices connecting to your BT Home Hub. Please follow the instructions provided with your devices.”
    I applied the change – but have not yet done any fooling around with IP addresses on my laptop because I don’t want to start mucking around with my laptop
    I then tried to access a website, and failed, but on this occasion rather than nothing happening, the Home Hub website came up  again displaying the error message page.
    And that is where I stand. All looks so easy when reading other threads on this and other forums but it is not working for me.
    Any help greatly appreciated.
    The IP settings on the E4200 are
    IP  192.168.1.1
    Range  192.168.1.100  to 192.168.1.149
    Also connection type on the E4200 is POE not POA – as far as I  recall that is what it needed to be to connect to the DSL modem and work.

    Thanks for the speedy reply!
    I have actually came across this page before - I seem to hit a snag when I connect the repeater hub (my HH3).  As outlined, I have at all times kept the repeater hub connected via ehternet into one of the regular LAN ports to my main HH5.
    But when I connect my laptop to the repeat hub (HH3), I am actually connected to the internet somehow (I assuem using the HH5 network) but under my network connections it says I am connected to the HH3.  As a result, when I go to the homehub settings page 192.168.1.254, it brings me to the main HH5 settings page and not the repeater HH3.
    According to the instructions it says I should "Ignore the not connected page", but I am connected and I cant seem to alter any of the settings on my HH3 while it is connected to the HH5.
    Any other pointers?
    Thanks!

  • Using linksys wag200g as an access point

    Hi, i just bought a smart TV and been wanting to set it up to stream videos from a media server. But since my wireless modem (DIR-615) is upstairs, the signal is quite weak and the video will skip sometimes during streaming; I happen to have an old WAG200G linksys modem and been wanting to use it as an access point. So now i have WAG200G, DIR615 and a router (HG850... is this a router?) So the DIR-615 is connected thru the router using the WAN port to LAN1 on the router and linksys is connrected to from LAN4 to LAN4 at the router. Linksys has a local ip of 192.168.0.5 and the modem has a local ip of 192.168.0.1; both of them has the same subnet mask (255.255.255.0) but when i connect my laptop to 'linksys' instead of 'home' wireless network, i dont have internet what am i doing wrong? Also does an access point creates 2 wireless network but both share the same internet? or it creates 1 shared wireless network with shared internet... networking is so confusing also if it helps, here's my backup cfg:

  • Router, access point, very CONFUSED. HELP

    The Plan:
    In my living room I have a modem/router (at&t supplied) which produces wifi for my home. In my family room I have an older version of the Xbox 360 with no wireless capabilities. Without buying a 100 ft (the rooms are not exactly close to each other)ethernet cable and running it under the house, I'd rather find some way to send a wireless signal from a router to a physical (access point/router?) which will be located next to the Xbox that it can hard wire to.
    Equipment at my disposal:

    WAP54G ver.2

    Is it possible to do what I want with the equipment I have? The more I dive into websites about it the more confused I get. Access points, client bridge mode, client mode, repeater, etc. I just have no idea what to do, any ideas?

    Those devices that you have will work but it is not an assurance that those two devices will give you the best performance since those are only wireless-G devices.  What you can do is to set the WRT54G v6 as the main router that will broadcast a wireless signal to that other room; set the WAP54G v2 as an access point client so that it will act as the wireless adapter for your Xbox. To test if the router’s signal will reach to that room then you need to use a laptop and check if the laptop could pick the signal. 

  • Home hub 3 as second router (access point) - anyon...

    Hi all, I have my infinty connection from the modem to a netgear wndr4500 cable router. I am trying to get a better signal upstairs but using the home hub 3 as a secondary router / wifi point (connected to the netgear with homeplugs). I have done all the necessary changes such as disabling dhcp on the hh3 and changing its ip address to one on the same network as the netgear but outside of its dhcp range (192.168.1.254). uPnP is enabled on both routers. I can log into the settings page on the hh3 and it even tells me the list of devices on the network in its network diagram (all connected via the netgear). I can connect the hh3 wirelessly but cannot reach the Internet. Anyone help me out? Edit: since typing this I cannot connect to the hh3 wirelessly anymore as it will not assign an ip address. Oh and Ethernet cable is LAN port to LAN port.

    Thanks Keith for the guide.
    Once I printed it, I just walked myself through and it appears to have worked!  This morning I had a few concerns about accessing a network storage area connected to the main hub, from the slave, but my concerns were unfounded.  I found the same with the printer.  Without the slaved access, the printer's wifi connectivity throughout the house was patchy.  Connected to the slave, it seems back to a solid thing again.
    Now just the Sure Signal to sort out.  Does anyone have experience with Sure Signals and this sort of arrangement?  I acutally think the issue with that is the HH5, rather than the master/slave arrangement.

  • Trying to set up BEFW11S4 as a "slave" router/access point

    I want to set up the BEFW11S4 as a router and access point in the opposite corner of the house from the main wireless router. My main router is address 192.168.1.1, and I configured the BEFW11S4 as 192.168.1.2, with a different WEP key and turned off DHCP, so the main router will hand out addresses.
    I am not able to ping the BEFW11S4, nor can I access it with IE. I have a CAT5 Ethernet cable going to the WAN port, and configured the WAN address as 192.168.1.1. I also have an Ethernet-connected PC to the BEFW11S4 and can't see it nor ping it.
    What should I do to make this work?
    Thanks,
    Rocky

    you need to connect the 2 routers using regular ports. example, from port 1 of main router going to port1 of befw11s4. do not configure the wan ip of befw11s4 anymore. it should only be set to "obtain an ip automatically".

  • Linksys Wireless-G Router won't connect

    I just bought the Linksys Wireless-G version 6 router WRT54G. I have 3 computers. I wanted to connect my G4 to the router, use my new MacPro laptop, use the wireless for my Gateway downstairs, but it won't configure. I can't access the internet at all. Help please. We have spent a lot of time with their support people, but all they can say is that sometimes, Linksys will not work with Mac and gave up. What now?
    Thank you in advance.

    No matter what the techy blowhards say here, Linksys DOES NOT support useage by Mac users. You're on your own. I know this from personal experience ...
    1. I had to go to the Apple Bar to get a Netopia wireless card programmed with my G4 laptop. Why? Because the titanium models' metal apparently interferes with Airport useage. This from the Apple tech, who was a dream in getting me started wirelessly.
    2. I purchased a Linksys router, which SAYS "MAC" on the box, which is supposed to mean that it's for Macs AND PCs. Lo and behold, the CompUsa staff knew nothing about this (tired of no one knowing about Macs ... grrrr) and I had to take it home and program it myself. Which I did. And immediately was given .exe files to download from a CD to start. (of course, this is only for PC users!!!) I promptly called Linksys, where I was told, "oh, we don't know how to troubleshoot for Macs." I laughed and told them they shouldn't be selling equipment to Mac users and claiming that it works for Mac users when they couldn't provide the tech support or software for it! I was bumped up to "second tier support" (this is also typical, no one is trained on Mac issues ... anywhere.) where I was given the link to a site that had a driver I could use. Which I did. And it worked. HOWEVER ... I have had several instances where my card just stops working all of a sudden, usually for a minute or two (and yes, it's a PC card, as well ... should work SEAMLESSLY with a Linksys router), only the other day the "outage" lasted about 25 minutes. No, it wasn't my DSL line (which is crappy, given that service up here in the hills of SF stinks, no fiber optic upgrade for us ... in supposedly the "wireless capital" of the world. lol But that's another story -) ... that worked perfectly fine when hardwired into my laptop. It was the router. And once again, I called and was told, "well, you need the firmware update." (which someone else has mentioned here, fine, but ...) Of course, I was never sent an email notifying me of this (even though it took scads of info, including email addy, to register for this thing, as with other hardware/software) ... nonethless, once again I was bumped up to "second tier tech" whereby someone directed me to a linksys addy, to get the firmware. Lo and behold, I download it, and it's an .exe file. lol Bozos, all of 'em.
    Linksys is NOT made for Macs. I can get mine to work, but it's really not worth the hassle. I should have found a way to use AirPort. Now, I'm going to make my daughter's desktop G4 wireless (my old 'puter) and I'm sure it'll be another huge hassle to do that with the same card I have in my laptop.
    Bottom line is ... even though Apple stuff is more pricey, stick to Airport technology when you can. Unless you're prepared to pull your hair out getting PC-oriented stuff to work. And DON'T believe the hype. Most likely, if a PC-oriented piece of hardware says it works on a Mac, it's for the most part, B.S.

  • Mail for Exchange - Access Point question

    Hello,
    When setting up Mail for Exchange, you need to input the Access Point.  I cannot find an option to select "Ask for Access Point" or something along that line.
    I use wireless access points and when I go from one spot to another I have to change my settings just to sync.
    Does anyone know of an option, if not how could I file for a feature request?

    The specific problem can be resolved. How did you hard reset your phone? You should hard reset your phone (some key combination which I cannot remember, press four keys simultaneously). Then format mass memory. Reinstall the firmware. Otherwise let Nokia Care reflash your phone. I had issues with freezes when I hung up a call, but that was resolved when Nokia Care reflashed my phone. 
    My phone is currently broken, so I cannot help you further.

  • Linksys Wireless-G router power light not glowing

    Hi,
    I bought my Linksys Wireless-G 2.4 Ghz, 54 Mbps Broadband router (Model: WRT54GL) in US. I'm using the same in India for the past couple of months (connected thru 240 to 120v voltage converter). It was working fine until last week. All of the sudden I see the Linksys router power light not glowing at all. Initially I suspected the problem to be with voltage converter, later I figured out that the voltage converter and power adapter to router are working fine. So its the issue with wireless router. Is this a known issue with this model ?. If so how do I fix this ?. Is there a Linksys wireless router service center in Bangalore ?.
    Any help related to this issue would be great.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Siva K.

    Thanks for your immediate response on this issue.
    Well, there is no power to the router at all. So as you mentioned I believe the router is dead. Is there anything we can do now ?.
    Note: This is a pretty new router. I haven't used it much.
    Regards,
    Siva K.

  • Access Points Question

    We have a wireless controller with 15 access points(AIR-CAP2702i-K9). They were all up & working fine until we had a power outage. After the power came back up, they all came back up but 3 of the access points will not accept any clients. I have re-configured them but still no luck.
