Problems with wrt54g v8 longer range build

Hi 
Im pretty much incompetent when it comes to telecomunications still, havnt gone to college to get my eletrical engineering degree yet. Im working on getting wifi out in the woods not to far away so that we can have wifi in a hunting blind just outside our house, its far enough away that if i put a higher-end netgear on the backporch we can get just a hint of signal but too low to stay connected. so we bought a wrt54g v8 and a 2.4ghz yagi so that we could wire get good signal out there, I know 2.4 doesnt like trees or any solid objects but with a 18dbi yagi we should still get enough signal correct?  I soldered the antenna directly to the pcb of the router (which is running ddwrt) and shot it out in our front yard and at about 350ft los i lose all signal which should not be happening right? ive even set the send and recieve to just the yagi antenna. i tried putting the trasnmit power at max and it just made the wifi signal keep shutting off. so, what am I doing wrong. 
thanks for your help

Check your signal SNR (single to noise ratio). It may be that because you didn't use proper connectors radio noise is created at the solder joint.
Please remember to Kudo those that help you.

    hi...logon to router's setup page and try changing channel to 11, go to advanced wireless settings, try changing transmission rate to 54Mbps, beacon interval to 50, fragmentation and RTS threshold to 2304, also try upgrading latest firmwar on the router...check whether it maks any difference or not and let me know.

  • Problems with WRT54GS and EasyLink after adding Comcast Digital Voice.

    I had a working network. Cable modem (Comcast), WRT54GS, 2 wired PCs (one XP/SP3, one Vista Home Edition SP1), 2 wireless laptop PCs (one XP/SP3, one Vista Home Edition SP1) and a HP OfficeJet 7210 printer (connected to WRT54GS as network printer). Everything was fine and worked.
    Then, I added Comcast Digital Voice. Obviously, they switched the cable modem for a new cable modem with the phone service option. Now, I can't print to the OfficeJet from the wired Vista PC, and EasyLink displays "initializing" for as long as I'll wait (5+ minutes).
    I finally have to kill EasyLink from the TaskManager. Any help or ideas appreciated!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I solved the problem. It turns out the new cable modem and problem with EasyLink initializing were "red herrings".
    The problem turned out to be a classic network problem! The hard-wired Vista PC had the wrong IP address. The wireless XP PC had the printer configured by network name  instead of network (i.e. IP) address.
    When I deleted the printer on the Vista PC and re-added it with the correct address everything worked fine.
    Apparently the printer got a new IP address from the server on the WRT54GS after the installation of the new modem. Also, it looks like Vista doesn't report a communication error for a network printer, but does for a USB direct connect.

  • Network cable unplugged problem with WRT54G

    I just got a WRT54G wireless router recently, and experienced some problems with it. There are 5 notebooks in my network using wireless card and 2 PCs connect to the router through cables. The router is with ver 7.00.1 firmware.
    The router is working fine, the problem is sometimes it will show "Network cable unplugged" on my PC, and the whole network will be interruptted, the network will be resumed in few seconds and all machines need to get IP from the DHCP server again. It's quite annoying to be disconnected from middle of the work. I don't know what is the cause, seems like the router is re-reading it's configuration. I have tried to refresh the fireware but with no luck. Someone else got this problem before? anyone has a solution for this? Thanks a lot!
    Regards,
    Leo

    Try the following tips to resolve your problem:
    Disable the Ethernet network adapter if you are not using it. This applies, for example, when running a WiFi home network with computers that have built-in Ethernet adapters. To disable the adapter, double-click the small Network Cable Unplugged error window and choose the Disable option.
    Check both ends of the Ethernet cable connected to the adapter to ensure they are not loose.
    Replace the Ethernet cable with a different one to verify the cable is not damaged.
    Update the network adapter driver software from the manufacturer's Web site.
    Change the Link Speed and Duplex settings (using Device Manager) to use "100 Mbps Full Duplex" or "10 Mbps Full Duplex" instead of Auto Detect.
    Replace the Ethernet network adapter
    Good Luck,

  • WLC 2504 problems with one IP address range

    I am having an interesting issue configuring a new 2504.
    How it is setup:
    Port 1 management with vlan tagging on vlan 111
    Port 2 trunking with ap-manager2 on vlan 3, 102 on vlan 102 (Not ap-manager), and 1001 on vlan 1001.
    All of the vlans have distinctive and unique IP ranges. Vlan 111 is running 172.16.128 /20, 102 is 172.19.252 /23 and vlan 1001 should be running 172.17 /16.
    Here is my problem. I can setup all of the dynamic interfaces on the appropriate ip ranges, but for some reason when I configure the 1001 vlan dynamic interface with the /16 address space, I lose connectivity to the GUI managment interface. I have to go in through the CLI and remove the interface or change the IP range. I have tried other /16 address space on that vlan and do not have a problem with them. the 172.17 space appears to be the only one that will not work.
    I have attached the config from the controller (Minus some site specific stuff like the SNMP community and wpa stuff.) The config is using a 172.20 /16 right now on the 1001 interface so that I could get into the controller and download the config. It should be 172.17 /16. The acutal IP info should be 172.17.4.253 255.255.0.0 172.17.0.254
    My computer is on the 1001 vlan and I have verified the IP is not in use and am using the same subnet, gateway etc as I am trying to configure the wlc with.
    Switch config:
    Port 1 is plugged into g0/2 with the following config
    interface GigabitEthernet0/2
    switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,3,102,111,1001
    switchport mode trunk
    spanning-tree portfast
    Port 2 is plugged into fa0/47 and just has switchport mode trunk.
    How can I get the interface to work with the proper IP range for vlan 1001?

    I finally had a chance to fiddle around with this issue again and have some more information on the problem. It appears to not be an issue with the IP address, but rather with the VLAN. The 172.17.0.0/16 subnet is on VLAN 1001 which it appears the WLC does not care for. This problem is repeatable on the following versions of code that I have tried:
    7.0.220.0
    7.1.91.0
    7.4.110.0 (Not in use for production until we upgrade from WCS to Prime.)
    Any thoughts? Moving the 1001 VLAN to another number would be a HUGE undertaking so if there is not an answer within the firmware on the WLC, I will have to bridge two VLANs with bpdufilter enabled... Not my first choice for sure...

  • Problems with WRT54G

    this is my problem i have the wire from my modom to my router the internet light is on i have a cable hooked in to the back of the linksys router in the #1 port, the cable in #1 port is then hooked to my desktop pc . i have a WLAN light on  . ok know for the fun part i get a great signal on my laptop so it is seeing the router but will not connect to the internet.i have tried everything i can think of and then everything some websites have said but nothing works so can you tell me what you think is the problem or if it is operater error

    I have the same problem with a slight difference - my desktop is connected to the WRT54G through a LinkSys WUSB54GC Adapter - it runs fine.  I have the same problem with a laptop - it can see the router but cannot connect to the internet.  I turned of security settings on the laptop, and have defined a unique SSID.  The laptop continues to see the router but not the internet!  The laptop has been able to successfully connect to a number of different wireless routers.  I have tried every logical router setting to see if the laptop can see the internet and nothing helps.  I restored to factory settings before I defined the new SSID.  Help!!!

  • Still problems with uploading articles in folio builder

    Hello,
    Read much information on this forum but i still don't have a solution for my problem. And here is my problem.
    I had a course how to create a digital publication. So went back to work and try to do the same as what i did at the course.
    Installed InDesign CS5.5 and the last folio producer tools en folio panel. Than I create a folio via the folio panel en voila it was created. So far so good.
    Than I try to add an article to this newly created folio but for some reason I can't get it in the folio and I got this message
    An error has occured while updating article layouts.The InDesign file for the layout cannot be found. (Than in Dutch because I have a Dutch version)
    So what I already tried is the following:
    - use another Adobe-ID to log in the folio panel (no succes)
    - uninstalled the publishing parts en reinstalled again the newest parts (no succes)
    - create article via import (also no succes)
    - create a local folio and than add a article (no succes)
    - Also locate the InDesign file on another location (no succes)
    When i create the article the spinner keeps on turning. When I than login to the digitalpublishing.adobe.com with the same adobe-id I see the article with a red frame around it. Which says "Corrupt layout"
    Than I send the InDesign file of an article to someone else and he can upload this file without any problems. And I am sure I have all rights/permissions which I should have.
    Is it possible that you can have problems with uploading articles because of network settings or combinations with other software?
    Has somebody a solution for this really frustrating problem?

    Hi pbremmer!
    Are you using Mac och PC?

  • Problems with wrt54gs v. 06

    I keep losing internet acess on all computers with this router. Now when I hook my old router back up that is a linksys b router it works fine but then i hook the g router back up no internet. I have did the powercycle and it didn't work. I notice the G routers been having this problem.

    Ok it keeps disconnecting from my the computer its hooked up too. And I updated the firemware it stayed on for one day. Then i powered up the computer the next day it wouldn't work. and this is all the computer the wired one and the wireless ones (I have a laptop and another desk top connected wirelessly). It just annoying that I have to keep hooking up the b router cause the g one keeps cutting off. I have Windows XP on all the computers. I got the Usb adaptor on the desktop and My dell has the Intel Pro Wireless 2200 b/g card. once I get connection on my computer that has the router hooked up to it I have no problems with the wireless ones.

  • Problem with Netbeans IDE 5.0: Building Gui

    Hello,
    I have the following problem with Netbeans IDE 5.0 (I made the same with netbeans 3.6 and it works properly):
    Step 1) Create a myJPanel class (new JPanel Form)
    Step 2) make a simple operation on myJPanel such as adding a JTable.
    Step 3) Create a myJForm Class (new JFrame Form)
    Step 4) Adding a JPanel to myJFrame (default name jPanel1)
    Step 5) Select JPanle1 within myJFrame and go to code-> custom creation code and write "new myJPanel();"
    this should set the jPanel1 (and all its contents and behaviours) created
    in step 4 equals to myJPanel();
    Step 6) run myJFrame;
    ........ and nothing happens. It is dispalyed just a gray JFrame.
    It seems that myJFrame is able to istantiate myJPanel() but is not able to paint it. what's wrong?
    Hope you may help me,
    thx

    Unfortunately, Netbeans 3.6 files and Netbeans 5 files are not compatible. Except the Java source files, Netbeans uses other aditional files such as xml files etc for forming GUI and other reasons. I have also faced the same problem with you. Good luck.

  • Problems with Internet, after update to build 9926

    updated to version 9926 via the Update Center. everything worked properly. once it updates via windows update kb2267602 kb3034229 and update for the graphics card. after installation, LAN connection and WIFI stopped working (unidentified network without
    Internet access) diagnostics showed one or more protocols are not set / incorrect value ip. after the introduction of hand-ip network has become identified, but the Internet has not appeared and diagnostics began to show problems with DNS. Internet on other
    devices are working properly. Sorry for my English.

    Hi Jetbal,
    What is your current situation?
    Have you tried to manually install the LAN and WIFI drivers? Download the drivers from the manufacturer side, then take a try to install them with compatibility mode. Right -click on the install file, then select compatibility tab, under taht tab, choose
    Windows 8.1 or Windows 7 compatibility mode and then install to check if issue could be solved.

  • Connection Problems with WRT54G V6

    Hey Guys,
    This is the problem that im faced with.
    For the last few weeks my router has been having problems with the internet connection.  For some reason there is no internet connection everytime i turn my computer back on after a session. To resolve this problem i perform a factory resest and then unplug my modem from it's power source leave it for 30 seconds and then connect it again... and this seems to work all and good for that period i use the computer for. But when i turn the computer back on the next day the internet connection is lost.The modem im using is a Motorola SB5100
    Anyone got any ideas on how to resolve this?
    Thanks
    Message Edited by Ramadge on 03-02-2009 09:33 PM

    You need to upgrade your router's firmware, reset it and re-configure it...
    Download 1.59 MB Firmware...
    Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device: -
    Open an Internet Explorer browser page.In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1
    Leave the username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
    Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
    Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful"  After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
    Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

  • File and Printer Sharing Problem with WRT54G

    I am currently having problems sharing files over my network. My setup consists of:
    3 laptops (wireless)
    1 desktop (wired)
    WRT54G V6.0 router with firmware version 1.00.9.
    All of the computers have File and Printer Sharing enabled, unique names, and are on the same workgroup. However none of the computers can see one another. When I try to view workgroup computers for my network places, the explorer window stops responding for about 30 sec. and then spits out a dialog with the error:
    "Workgroup is not accessable. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.
    The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available."
    I think that this problem has something to do with the router, as I have been successfuly sharing files and a printer with these settings using a microsoft 802.11b router for over a year. After purchasing the linksys and swapping it out with my old router, filesharing no longer functions.
    I have spent a little time browsing the forums and have seen other posts from people with simmiler problems, but was unable to find any solutions.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I'm having the same problems as you are, I have 2 computers on wired the other wireless the router is in between and I can't access from either side, although I can ping and remote connect but just cannot share files across the network. I have looked all over the forums too and there saying to ditch linksys and do something else.
    Its not you thats caused this it is the firmware and the router that have the problems.
    My Specs:
    WRT-54G
    v5.0
    That new firmware update 1.00.9 just isn't working right. I might downgrade my fireware to fix this problem.
