Netgear WPN824v2 MIMO Router Help

Hi.
I am not recieving good signal around my house. What is happening? Wasn't this router suppose tu boost up the performance? I am not using my iBook right now... I am using a Toshiba Satellite notebook with 54g Intel Pro connection. Is this the problem? Do I need a MIMO adapter? I also noticed that the Wireless light in the WPN824v2 is blinking. What does that mean?

This seems like a odd place to ask a question about using a Netgear base station and a Toshiba laptop.

Airport Extreme and Netgear DGN2200 Modem Router - Help

Hi everyone,
I’m from Italy, sorry for my English. I hope I will explain my problem well enough.
In some weeks I gonna buy my first iMac (after years and years on Win-PCs). For Christmas my family gave me an Airport Extreme for present. This is the first Apple product that comes into my house (..not really an happy entrance until now).
I’m just getting mad about setting this Airport Extreme. I would want to use it as a wireless extender ; I tried almost all possible setups searching for days on the web , but nothing. It doesn’t work. The Apple assistance is always busy in the hours I can be at home and the Extreme still remains a well-done-elegant white brick on the desk..
Situation:
-     I’m working on a Windows PC now (Windows 7)
-     I use a Netgear Modem wireless Router DGN2200 plugged via Ethernet cable to the PC
-     I downloaded Airport utility for windows 5.6.1
-     The Airport Extreme is new (5th generation)
My wish:
-     Using the Airport Extreme in another room of my house connected wirelessly to my existing Netgear router, as an extender of the network
Problems that I found:
-     Wirelessly the base is not found by Airport utility
-     To find the base I have to plug an Ethernet cable from the Netgear Router to a port on the Airport base, but not the first WAN port, I have to use one of the others.
-     When I find the base I try setting-up it with the Bridge Mode, but then it gives errors 6753 or 10057.
-     I tried to change settings on the Netgear Router or reset them, but nothing ..
and so on many tries.
If someone of you had the same Netgear Modem Router (DGN2200) and use an Airport Extreme base like an extender in bridge mode, please tell me what configuration, in the Router Modem and on the Airport base, works fine.
Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards.

I can only create a “New Wireless Network” (no bridge mode) connected to Netgear Modem Router by Ethernet cable , in this way I would have 2 networks, one from the Netgear and another from the Airport, but the source of wireless will be in the same room (because they will be connected together by cable).
I already provided the instructions for this in my post above. Here they are again:
Configure the AirPort to "create a wireless network" using the same wireless network name, same wireless security and same wireless password as the Netgear network....and...configure the AirPort Extreme in Bridge Mode to work correctly on the network.
If you do this, then the AirPort and Netgear devices will work together to act like one "big" network. That is because you have two routers producing the same network.
If I bought 2 Powerline extenders, one connected close to the Netgear Router and the other one connected to power line in the other room,
could I connect by cable the Airport Extreme to the second extender
If you cannot connect an Ethernet cable from the Netgear to the AirPort Extreme, then you might be able to use a pair of Ethernet powerline adapters to send the signal over the AC wiring in your home.
I have not found powerline products to be reliable in general when I have used them, so make sure that you understand the store's return policies in advance if you decide to try them.

Spa2102 settings and router Netgear WPN824v2

I have problems with Voip Spa2102. When somebody calling me it showing that phone is busy but phone is not busy.
I thing i must change some settings in Linksys and my router Netgear. Can somebody help me with best settings?
Now i have: Internet -> Netgear router -> Linksys SPA2102
Firmware of Voip adapter if you need it is 3.3.6
And I living in Norway.

best way to isolate the problem is by connecting the SPA2102 directly to your modem...check if you are able to call out and receive calls...of course internet should be working first before you can use the phone to call out so connect a computer to the SPA2102. Once this is working just connect the Netgear behind the SPA..this will ensure that voice is always prioritized...

HT1731 Help installing Airport Express with Netgear N150 wireless router? I hav

Hi,
I just purchased the newer Airport Express (new) and am having issues using it in client mode with my Netgear N150 wireless router. All I want to use it for is streaming itunes from my aluminum macbook to my home stereo system, wirelessly.
I have followed the instructions that came with the device. No luck. I have followed the instructions that describe plugging it into an ethernet cable here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1731
With the apple instructions linked above it would connect fine to my existing wireless network, using airport utility, with 'excellent' connection, but when I tried to switch in itunes to my device from my computer i get the pinning wheel and an 'unknown error' occurs.
I have setup a new wireless account and password on my router as desribed at this page, but do get confused when it tells me to use the hex key and $. Haven't worked that out yet. Any advice would be appreciated if this would help.
http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20041017233832771
At best, after hard resetting the device several times, and following the instructions above at macworld, it now finds the device but only plays one blip second of a song, flashing amber from solid green, sometimes playing a second blip of a song, then pausing the song and switching to a flashing amber. By restarting my computer or opening AirPort utiliy I am able to find it again, but it either only plays one second of a song and drops again or turns green and is not able to be found at all by itunes (the button doesn't show up in the menu).
This is the second airport I have tried in 2 years. I purchased a used one and had nearly the exact same issues with a linksys router. Then it would play an album but reset if a song was paused.I had to hard reset it nearly every time i wanted to stream from itunes to my stereo. I assumed it was broken and sent it back. Figured I 'd give it a new go around with a new unit since i just moved into a new house and am now shocked at how difficult it is to set up. I have never had this many issues with an apple device.
My questions:
1) How can I set this up with my existing router? What am I doing wrong?! Why is it so difficult?
2) If not possible, what routers are compatible? I would gladly get a new router in order to stream music to my stereo from ITunes.
thank you for any assistance. i am pulling my hair out.

Try temporarily disabling the Windows 7 firewall, and then, try accessing the AirPort with the AirPort Utility again.

Apple AirPort Express with Airtunes and Netgear WPN824v2 Router

I'm having some trouble getting the AirPort Express with Airtunes to connect to a Netgear WPN824v2 network.
Details:
- Router: Netgear RangeMax Wireless Router WPN824v2
- Wireless Network Security: WEP
- Computer: MacBook Pro
- OS: OS X 10.4.10
- AirPort card in computer: this works fine - no problems
- AirPort Express with Airtunes: the setup routine goes OK, but then the unit cannot connect to the wireless network; the light blinks amber.
Could the problem relate to the password (Hex versus ASCII) or perhaps WEP versus WPA?
Any / all suggestions welcome. Thanks.

sonicdubster, Welcome to the discussion area!
Are you following the directions in KB 302153, AirPort Express: How to join an existing wireless network in client mode?
Is the AirPort Express (AX) placed in an area where it can receive a good wireless signal from the Netgear?
Does the AX connect if you disable wireless encryption?
WPA (or WPA2) is much more secure and less troublesome than WEP. If all of your equipment supports WPA, I would switch to WPA.

HT4199 I have a Netgear R6300 wireless router and a Yamaha RX-3020 A/V receiver. An app is available to run on an Ipad. I have to reboot every morning to get it all working. Can I just plug cat6 between them, when I do nothing works, please help

Should I use a network switch and plug my Yamaha A/V receiver and Yamaha DVD into it, then into the wireless router? Then the net into the routers net port???

How to setup netgear N150 wireless Router to apple tv ?

Server 2012 Built-In IPSec VPN & RAS & HyperV-Switch & Netgear Pro Safe Router, Tunnel Ok, but no Traffic

Hello,
i try to setup a IPSEC VPN (Site-by-Site or if not possible Client-BySite) between a Netgear Pro Safe Router and Windows Server 2012.
The Problem: Tunnel is up and running, but no Ping, no traffic at all.
the Server 2012 uses HyperV and has one hardware-NIC with public ip, lets say 123.123.123.1.
if no site-by-site is possible in my situation with built-in-tools this server would be only a client-site which would "dial-up" to the netgear box.
the server has a second virtual NIC with IP 192.168.137.1. Routing and RAS is enabled, because there are two virtual other servers whichs has 192.168.137.2 and 192.168.137.3.
The Netgear-ProSafe has public ip 122.122.122.1 and LAN-Subnet 192.168.21.0/24.
I created the Tunnel in the Advanced-Firewall-Options-Window. Both, Windows and the Router, say, the VPN-Tunnel is okay. Also, i can see ESP-Packets with wireshark.
If i ping (from router to server and other direction) i get no response. Some people said, the RAS itselfe could not accept packages, but i tried from one of the virtual clients also (192.168.137.2) and no ping there also.
i tried to add a route for subnet 192.168.21.0 with 192.168.137.1 as gateway but that didn't helped also.
now, after all this time i spend today to this problem i'm a bit confused.
as i know vpn-connections there are always virtual devices, and routes for the vpn-subnets assigned to this device.
the windows firewall does not create any device, and it does not create any route - i suppose, this is because "routing and ras or windows firewall-service" does this work "internally". is that correct? do i need any routes?
i was wondering why the ICMP packet from my ping in wireshark had the public ip as source (123.123.123.1) and not the "internal" 192.168.137.1 - and i tried to restrict the vpn-rule only for the virtual internal NIC but this isn't possible, as
it is no option inside the gui.
it would be great if somebody could explain me how config and packages SHOULD look....i've never used the built-in vpn/ipsec/ras services before, so i don't know how things has to be for a correct working environment. also, i need a solution and any help
to solve the problem would be great also!
now i try to sleep one night - maybe i get some nice idea after some hours of sleeping. good night.
Addition: After some more tests i find out that if i change the local endpoint (endpoint 1) from the virtual network (192.168.137.0/24) to the public ip of the server (123.123.123.1) inside the tunnel-rule and inside the vpn-policy of the router i can access
the netgear and other devices in the remote-network 192.168.21.0 over this ip-adresses. ping is not working, but other things seems to work fine. i want to be able to ping as well ofcourse and this wired configuration looks wrong to me...can some network-professional
help out with an explanation?
Second Addition: I can set the Local Endpoint also to "any" and it does work - but ping still does not work :-(
Third Addition: The Ping does work if i disable the NAT-Functionality on the Physical NIC. ....mhm.....

I would definitly recommend the usage of a virtual router instead using windows onboard-firewall to make the site-to-site tunnel!
as you can see in my linked thread above (Link)
this scenario is not supported from microsoft! you will run into problems!
we do run a hyperv virtual machine and install the wonderful distribution pfsense inside this box. pfsense is a software-linux-router with ipsec-functionality, which works like a charm!
and by the way i recommend to not use the products of netgear! they are expensive, very slow and the service is not good!
we have good experience with Vigor-Routers! They are less expensive, the Service is very good, and the devices are much faster, AND! ...the vpn-connections stay stable up!
this experience was very time-intensive to make! hope this will help someone else in the future.

Westell 6110f modem & Netgear N900 R4500 router

Hi!
I have a Westell 6110F modem and Belkin F5d9230 router that works fine. I want to replace the router with a Netgear N900 R4500 router. I set it up like the Belkin, but it won't talk to Verizon. Right now I have the new router plugged into the old router and have Internet access on the new router. I'd prefer to have just one (I need to stream some music to a couple of places and the Belkin doesn't handle it). Can anyone help?
Extech

#1 With the Belkin router connected to the Westell and it is online, go to the LAN IP of the Belkin router.
#2 In there, the WAN IP Address of the router should be the same IPv4 Address that you see at http://www.pcwintech.com/myip
#3 If it is not, then your modem combo is not in bridge-bridge mode (configured to handle the public IP)
#4 As how to put the modem combo into bridge-bridge mode, see
http://www.dslreports.com/faq/13600
#5 If you have any questions as how to do that, please post.
#6 If the WAN IP Address is the same at step 2:
a) in the Belkin router go to Connection Type under WAN.
b) In the connection type is DHCP...
#1 In the Belkin router go to back to the main page of the Belkin router.
For example if you are at http://192.168.2.1/wan.html, go to http://192.168.2.1
#2 Record down the WAN MAC Address.
#3 In the Netgear router, you will need to spoof/clone that Address.
I believe the feature exist in the Netgear at Advanced -> Setup -> WAN Setup

Bridging Actiontec MI424-WR Rev E Router to NETGEAR WGR614 v9 Router

I would like any information on how to succesfully bridge the MI424-WR Rev E router to the NETGEAR WGR614 V9 ROUTER.
I would also like it to keep On DEMAND features, as every time I attempt to fix this bridge, I lose all widgets and on demand.
The reason for my switchover is because the router provided with the verizon fios, is just awful. The signal strength is terrible, and although it is a G class WiFi router, the NETGEAR router which I am switching over to, is also a G CLASS router and can keep FULL SIGNAL throughout the entire house, where as the VERIZON PROVIDED router, loses a bar as soon as I step out of the bedroom door. That is LITERALLY 6 feet away.
If I can't switch it over succesfully now, the only other option is to switch to cablevision, due to their competitive internet speeds and the fact they supply you with a free N GRADE router.
Please help, it's an utter pain.
IT IS CONNECTED VIA COAX to the Verizon BOX downstairs

TS1398 have been connected to my wireless network using a netgear sky broadband router succesfully for a few weeks, suddenly can't connect, network is showing but no signal - all other wireless gadgets are connected just fine - including iphone - any idea

my ipad 4 has been connected to my wireless network using a netgear sky broadband router succesfully for a few weeks, suddenly can't connect, network is showing but no signal - all other wireless gadgets are connected just fine - including iphone - any ideas?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Using NETGEAR ProSafe SRXN3205 router with OpenRea...

I've just had my BT Infinity install completed this morning. I'd really like to use my existing NETGEAR ProSafe SRXN3205 router in conjunction with the OpenReach modem instead of the BT Home Hub 3.
I'm struggling to get it to work. I've reset my NETGEAR to factory defaults, then entered the username "[email protected]" in the appropriate field on the NETGEAR's configuration.
Still no joy. Anyone got this same setup and working and can offer some assistance?
Solved!

Hi there,
I'm using a Netgear WNR3500L and when I set up the connection, what I did was use the following:
username: [email protected]
password: [anything you like as long as it isn't left blank - I personally used "bt"]

Installed a wireless canon Pixma MX432 printer back in November for use with my Mac Book Air. All was working normally until this past week when I began getting a message, "printer not connected." What is going on? Netgear Wireless N Router seems to be ok

My new canon Pixma MX432 printer is not printing. It was printing fine until about ten days ago. I use a Netgear Wireless N router, which is also new. What do I need to do. I get a message when trying to print that says "printer not connected." In addition, my old Gateway laptop will still print fine apparently because it has a cable connection to the printer. Puzzled!

Have you tried rebooting the router? I would unplug it, wait a few seconds, then plug it back in. Be sure you know the password etc. if that doesn't work, try unplugging and rebooting the printer. Good luck!

Can I Show Time Connected When Using Netgear DG834 Wireless Router ?

When I had an old SpeedTouch USB Modem I could see the time I had been connected to the internet from a readout in the menu along the top of the monitor.
Is there a way of displaying or ascertaining this information using the Netgear DG834 wireless router?
I have discovered that by opening the Router Satus and clicking on "Connected Status" I can get a window displaying this info - but is there a quicker "automatic" way of doing it?
Ian.

Hi Ian,
Interesting one…
When you connect via a USB modem the computer is 'doing' the connecting using the modem so the computer has the 'time connected' status available locally. In the case of a router it is connected to the internet irrespective of the computer's status; on, off, sleep, or even, connected to the router. The only way you're going to get the info is from the router itself and, unless it has a setting whereby it will automatically 'inform' the computer of its connected time, I think you're going to have to carry on as you are.
I don't know that particular Netgear but used to have a different one until a thunderstorm fried it. I don't remember it having such a setting. My current Belkin certainly hasn't.
I'm quite interested to know why you want this info. Are you on some kind of PAYG tariff?
Adrian
