  • 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...

  • I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac.  The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. Any tips on how to do this?

    I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac.  The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. I installed the current Bonjour printer services software on the Windows machine, and separately installed the driver software for the Epson printer on the WIndows machine.  Running the bonjour wizard, I get an alert saying 'I don't have sufficient access to my computer to connect to the selected printer'.
    The printer has 'sharing' turned on from the Mac end; this works with a Powerbook via the wireless connection.  Sharing is also turned on in the Windows printer control panel for this printer (under properties).  The Mac is a G5 running 10.5.8.  When I try to print a page from the Windows machine it gets hung in the print queue.
    Any advice how to proceed would be appreciated!

  • My iPad will no longer connect to my Linksys wireless router.  Every other electronic device in our house connects just fine.  What can I do?

    I have an iPad (the earliest version) that used to connect to my Linksys wireless router with no difficulty.  One night recently I could not get on the internet through my iPad.  I checked the Wi-Fi information, which said it was not connected.When I go through the process of choosing a network, on which my home system is clearly listed along with a very strong signal strength, I am told that my iPad is unable to join my own network.  All the other electronic devices in our house are connected and functioning fine.  Can anyone walk me through the steps to correct this problem?
    I need to add that I took my iPad to the Appple store, and the clerk there reset something--I don't know what--and my iPad was able to connect to their network.  When I came home, though, I was not able to connect to my home network.

    If everything else is connecting with no issues, I would go into the wifi setting on the iPad and redo the info there, user, password and anything else related to your wifi at your house.
    It is possible whatever he reset may have reset something to default setting which will not allow it to connect. If you need too then verify the wifi setting by comparing it with another device setting that works on your home network.
    Good luck

  • How do I connect my laptop to my Linksys wireless router through the internal wireless card?

    I just purchased a gateway laptop and was trying to hook my Linksys wireless router up to it. Ive gotten it hooked up but only through the secondary device (that catches the signal)... I was wondering if there is anyway that I could make my internal wireless internet card a point or no? Can I only connect it to the USB network adapter or is there really a way to go COMPLETELY wireless? Thank you for your time...

    Is your internal wireless card enabled? Go to device manager and make sure it is enabled.

  • Can't connect PB G4 to linksys wireless router when 64bit is established

    Hello-
    I have my PB G4 connected (wirelessly) to a linksys wireless router WRTP54G. If I don't have security set on the router, the PB connects. Once I add the security (64bit) and enter the password, the message "There was an error joining the AirPort network” comes up and I can’t connect. I've connected my other laptop to the network (a PC).
    Any ideas on how to fix this? Thank you in advance.

    Does your router support any other form of encryption? See if this KB article makes any sense to you.
    AirPort: Joining an encrypted wireless network
    Personally, I have a sneaky suspicion it has to do with the way your ASCII/hexadecimal password is or isn't being converted to something recognisable by the router. I use a Linksys router at home with a hexadecimal password generated from an ASCII passphrase, and that seems to work fine.

  • Connecting a Linksys Broadband Router to a Netgear wireless cable modem gateway

    I was wondering how i would go about connecting a WRT54GS v2  Linksys Broadband Router to a Netgear CG814WG v2 wireless cable modem gateway. the reason I'm doing this is to get extra modem ports and i was just wondering what steps i would take to make it work correctly.

    If you are trying to add WRT to your network to increase the number of ports then,you can cascade linksys router to wireless modem.Connect the Ethernet cable from the LAN port of the wireless gateway to the linksys router  on the Ethernet port.Also,if the ip address of the Gateway is 192.168.0.1 then,change the ip address of the linksys router to 192.168.0.2.Also,disable the DHCP and Disable NAT under Advance routing on the linksys router.Power cycle the network and it will work.

  • Connecting a cable modem, a linksys wireless router and my MacBook?????

    So... My cable modem and MacBook work great when connected with an ethernet cable. How the heck do I hook up and configure my Linksys wireless router with my macbook and the cable modem? This seems like a simple setup, but when I hook it up it doesn't connect me to the internet.
    Any help would be awesome!!!!

    Darren,
    The best advice I can give is to suggest you post in the right discussion group. This is the group for Apple Pages. You want the MacBook group.

  • 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.

  • How to set up the airport express with a linksys wireless-g broadband router

    I need to know if and how to set up an airport express to use to extend a home wi-fi network. I have AT&T service with a 2WIRE modem. I am using a Linksys wireless-G broadband router. I also have the new Macbook Air notebook. The airport express keeps giving me a blinking amber light even when the ethernet cable (from the modem) connected. Please let me know how to set up an extended wifi network using this system. Any help would be appreciated.

    If that is all that is done, the Express would not provide more wireless coverage.  Instead, it would duplicate the coverage provided by the Linksys and there would be two WiFi systems covering approximately the same area.  As per my above comment, one Express connects via Ethernet to the Linksys.  The second Express provides the extension.
    You must have misunderstood what I was saying.
    Linksys is providing a wireless network.
    The Express is connected to one of the LAN ports on the Linksys router using a long Ethernet cable (or Ethernet powerline adapters)
    The Express is located on the other side of the house, for example.
    The Express is configured to create a wireless network using the same wireless network name, security and password as the Linksys router
    The Express is configured in Bridge Mode
    This has worked quite well for me for years. Computers "switch" from one wireless access point to another smoothly and automatically while they move around the house.
    Although this is an "extended" network, it is technically known as a "roaming" network.
    This is what I was suggesting as a possible alternative without having to buy more hardware.

  • Wireless internet not working at my house when I use my laptop (using a linksys wrt54g2 router)

    I am using a laptop for wireless internet (Dell D610). I have no problem using wireless internet at my school and in other places, but at my house, I can’t browse the internet. The router at my house has a strong signal (4 or 5 bars) and when I try to connect to it, it says that I am connected, but when I open up the internet browser, I can’t get online. The router is in a room right next to mine and it is on the same floor. It is a Linksys WRT54G2 router.
    When I go to the network connections folder, for the wireless network connection icon, it says “not connected, firewalled.” I can still browse the internet, though (at places other than my house).
    Another thing that I want to mention- I can't connect to other routers in the neighborhood either (the ones that aren't secured). It just doesn't connect (but for the router in my house, it connects). But my roommate told me that a bunch of people have connected to this one guy's router.
    What is the problem here? What can I do to make the internet work? Why would I be able to access the school's wireless internet and not the one in my house?

    Whats the Wireless Settings you have set on your Router, I there might be the possibility that you have set the security mode on your Router too high thats the reason you are not getting connected to your Wireless Network. Follow the setps to change the Wireless settings on your Router and i think this might help in getting you connected to your wireless network.
    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...
    For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
    Click on the Wireless tab
    - Here select manual configuration...Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
    - Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
    - Set the Radio Band to Standard-20MHz and change the Standard channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
    Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
    For Wireless Security : -
    Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
    Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key.
    NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
    Click on the Sub tab, Wireless MAC Filter..
    Make sure the Wireless MAC Filter on your Router is Turned Off. 
    Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
    Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
    Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...

  • Macbook causes Linksys wireless router to crash

    My daughters Macbook causes the Linksys wireless router to crash. I've already loaded the latest Linksys firmware but it did not help. It's the only computer that causes the router to crash. I have used several other non-Apple systems on the network without any problems.
    I think it's something that the Macbook is transmitting out but haven't pinpointed what it is and how to fix it.
    Any ideas on how to get her Macbook to work on our network wirelessly?

    Welcome to the discussions!
    What you are asking is if the Linksys can broadcast a wireless signal to the AirPort Extreme and then have the AirPort Extreme connect to the G4 using ethernet.
    The short answer is "no". For more details, please read on.
    This is not possible because the ethernet ports are not active on the AirPort Extreme in this type of configuration. The ethernet ports on the AirPort Extreme would only be active if the device were configured to "extend a wireless network".
    But, the AirPort Extreme can only "extend a wireless network" from another Apple device as it is not compatible with the products of other manufacturers for this purpose.

  • I recently purchased an airport extreme base station. I want to replace my older linksys wireless router. I had a successful set up but can not get it to talk to broadband modem, I am missing something but what?

    I recently purchased an airport extreme to replace my older linksys wireless router. had a successful set up but can not get connected to the internet. for some reason, which I am sure is apparent to others, i am missing some needed info to connect to the dsl broadband modem that I have.  would love some good tips.

    Try this:
    Turn off or remove power from the DSL model, the router, and your computer. Wait not less than one minute. Restore power to the modem and wait until the status lights indicate a connection to the ISP. Next, restore power to the router and wait until the status light shows connection to the modem. Last, turn on the computer. Check your Network preferences to be sure they are configured for a DHCP connection and that the router has received a valid IP address (not 169.xxx.xxx.xxx).

  • Linksys Wireless Router: WRT54G Version: 2

    I was just curious, since I have been talking to someone about the Linksys Routers and they were saying that WRT54G Versions 3, 4 & 5, all work successfully. Then when I asked him about Version 2, he said that he THINKS that the router will work.
    Can someone please give me an answer: Will the Linksys Wireless Router: WRT54G Version: 2 work with a MacBook Pro?!

    I get from 3 to 6 Mbps wireless and wired, which is considerably slower than my other Windows-based desktop and notebook over my 30 Mbps cable connection. My Dell notebook and desktop consistently get 15 Mbps wireless and 22 to 28 Mbps wired. Mac OS is relatively new to me, so I haven't had a chance to read as much I need to about optimizing connection speeds. But, I can either fix it by optimizing it, or perhaps Apple will come out with a firmware update since some people have been complaining about slow connections speeds and dropping connections.
    In my work, I have several computers going at the same time, and for typical Web surfing, I see no difference in speed between the 6 Mps on the Mac and the 15 Mpbs on the Dell---it's really limited anyway by the Web site server. I do notice a difference in download times, but even for very large files, the difference is noticeable but not a problem. And, there has never been a problem streaming video or downloading trailers, etc.
    Of course, only five years ago, my cable connection was first 128 Kbps (which was high speed then), then they jumped it up 1 Mpbs, then 10 Mbps, and now 30 Mbps---so the 6 Mbps on the Mac still seems pretty fast to me.
    Speed will always be slower over the wireless compared to your Ethernet connection, but once you get speeds in excess of 1 Mbps, you only see the difference in download times, surfing is the same.
