Re-installing software for Wireless-G Broadband Router

I had to replace my hard drive on my desktop unit. Now my laptop no longer can find my wireless router. I tried re-loading the software, but it tells me I must configure with the default username and password. I can't find what they are or how I do this. Help?

Do not run the CD...Connect the laptop hardwired to the router..open the setup page by typing 192.168.1.1 in the address bar and configure the router's settings as per the ISP settings..

Cannot install Software for E2500 or access router setup page

Please help! I first bought the e1200 version and when I tried to download it on my computer, it worked at first and installed correctly, but the cisco connect didn't properly install. I was able to log into the router online setup page ONE time. I tried to reset it and reinstall but it will not work.
So I thought ok let me go and purchase a better one (thinking it was the router version having issues). So I brought it back and purchased the E2500 and I am having the same trouble.
I have tried to reset it about 20 times and reinstall and it will not install at all. It still gives me internet, but I cannot log into the http://192.168.1.1/ page at all, it tells me internet cannot display...
Please help!

Hi there. Please check first if router is responding properly. Are you on Mac or Windows? On Windows pc, open command prompt (start>run>cmd for XP/ start>search>cmd for Vista and Windows 7) and type ping 192.168.1.1 and press enter. If you are getting 4 lines of replies from 192.168.1.1 bytes 32 something then router is okay. On command prompt again go down to the next line where it has the flashing cursor and type this time: start http://192.168.1.1. After you press enter, your browser comes up and normally will prompt you to log-in to area 192.168.1.1 and that is where you can use admin in both fields (username and password since you reset the router already). If you get page cannot be displayed still, disable proxies on the browser. Example if you are on IE, you click tools and then internet options and go to connections and click lan settings. On the small window that comes up, just make sure nothing is checked and then try on the address bar again http://192.168.1.1. If your computer still cannot access it, try a different browser or a different computer.

Wireless B Broadband Router (BEFW11S4) connects for only about 5 mins at a time

I have Wireless B Broadband Router (BEFW11S4). Worked fine for about 2 years. I've had a HP Pavilion for about a year now using the wireless and also have a desktop I use on it (wired). About a month ago the speed seemed to be lagging a little and the router was never secured with a password, so I changed that and added a password. Ever since then the laptop will not stay connected for more than about 5 mins. I have gone back and removed the password protect feature, but still have the problem. It has a problem connecting to the router. The signal bars always seem to be full, but still can't connect. I've tryed reseting the router, unpluging everything, etc and can't get it to have a steady connection like before. Sometimes I can connect to the internet even when it says "Not connected" in the wireless network connection 2 screen. I've tried to search and find a similar problem, but was surprised to not be able to find one. Any insight will help.
Thanks,
Lman

Thanks for the suggestions Wizzard. Although I did not know what all that stuff does, it didn't seem to help. I didn't not upgrade the firmware because there didn't seem to be any upgrades since 2003, before I bought it. Any other suggestions from anybody? Could anybody make an educated guess to whether it's the router or the laptop?
Thanks,
Lman

Wireless-B Broadband Router(BEFW11S4) Problem

I bought a Wireless-B Broadband Router(BEFW11S4) from someone but it didn't came with the CD is there another way to install it like a driver or something like that

There is no "driver" for your router. Your router has firmware that resides on a flash memory chip in the router. Check your router to see which version of the router you have. This should be listed on the bottom of the router, near the serial number.
To setup your router:
First, download the User Guide from the Linksys web site:
http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c=L_Content_C1&childpagename=US%2FLayout&cid=1115416835852&...
Next, reset the router to factory defaults (see the User Guide for directions).
Then go to Linksys.com > Support > Technical Support > EasyLink Home Networking Tools > then use EasyLink Connect to configure your router.

I have a new wireless G broadband router.
I am attempting to set up another computer.
I am using EasyLink Advisor.
It is askig for a router password.
Where do I find the Router's Password?

While installing the router if you used any password it is asking you that password .... if you forgot that you need to reset the router by holding the reset button ... If you had not used any password.... use admin as password withoput any username ... See if it works ...

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.

BEFW11S4 - Wireless-B Broadband Router questions

I have the BEFW11S4 - Wireless-B Broadband Router. Did it come with mac software originally? If so, is it possible to get the mac software from your company? Secondly, is there a way to disable the wireless signal on it and use it as a wired router? How would I do this? Would I do it in the network system preferences on my mac or would I need the software that came with the router originally?

Hi…
Linksys software CD does not operate on MAC OS. But you can still use the router with MAC. To configure the router with MAC OS connect the MAC to any of the Ethernet port of the linksys router. Login into the router by typing http://192.168.1.1 ( Default IP ) in the address bar of the IE. Leave the Username field blank and type admin as password (If you have not changed the router password.) Using the user interface you can also disable the wireless function of the router.

BEFW11S4 Wireless-B Broadband Router Issues

I have been having issues with my router lately. It is a Linksys BEFW11S4 - Wireless-B Broadband Router. It has the latest firmware and everything which was from like, April of 2005 since this is an older router model. I've had it for about 3 years now and have had no problems until this past week. I have Verizon DSL. Anyway, my network connection seems to fail every so often at least 6 times a day at random times. I use WEP security encryption and everything. Every time it fails, I have to reset the router and go into administrator configurations and retype the password then it starts working again. But it is annoying since I just lose connection for no reason when I'm in the middle of something. Even when it fails, it does not indicate that I lost connection or that my connection is weak. It says that the signal is still excellent all the time even when it stopped working and the Internet light is still on. Odd. Does anyone have any idea what is wrong or is it time for me to buy a Wireless-G router instead and hope that fixes the problem? Again, I have had no issues with the router and it has been working great for nearly 3 years until this past week and I did nothing to mess with it. Maybe is it just that the hardware is worn-out? I dunno, I just want this problem solved.

Bad DMZ + Portscan = Reboot. I’ve noticed that a portscan will cause the router to reboot if you have a bad DMZ host specified in the DMZ settings. The “Dummy DMZ” is a known method for stealthing Linksys routers, but apparently doesn’t work due to this problem. This problem has been confirmed on the DSLReports discussion board as a problem thats been around for a while, not just in 1.39.2. I’ve found that even with a valid DMZ host, a portscan will sill hose the router. If you turn on the “daignostic logging” (see hidden features section), you can see log entries that say [HH:MMS] Free=xxx, where xxx is getting smaller and smaller until it resets. (Note: this happened with default filtering settings, no spi, block wan, etc)
UDP Traffic Can Cause Reboot. In much the same way as the DMZ problem, sending large amounts of UDP traffic can hose the wireless interface. I used QCheck to send 1mBit of information in 10 seconds from a desktop (wired) to a laptop (wireless). You can see the [HH:MMS] Free=xxx decline. When it gets to 0, the wireless interface activity light goes solid and the router locks. This bug hasn’t been confirmed yet on any message board or newsgroup. (Note: this happened with default filtering settings, no spi, block wan, etc)
hmmm..just curious what model number are you referring to? Is it BEFW11S4 ver 1 or 2???

Linksys wireless N broadband router getting disconnected frequently

I have a linksys wireless N broadband router which is connected to 3560 switch. My problem is that my linksys keep on disconnecting but my campus network is working nicely. But hosts which are connected to linksys are not getting access properly when i logged into the linkys and i do ip release and renew it gets connected and after some time its disconnected again i logged into the linkys and again i do ip release and renew then its get connected again. I have been doing same to get internet access.
Linkys gets ip through our DHCP server.
I have reset the Linksys as well but still facing the same problem.
Note-Our campus network is working fine only problem is with linkys.
Thanks in Advance

If your using a WinXP you can download the tool that will automatically configure your router. Click here for the tool, then select Easylink Connect

I am trying to install software for iTwin Connect, but after downloading the dmg file and launching the program, I receive a message saying the file can't open and to check my internet connection. Any ideas?

Many Thanks, Kurt.
I knew I'd seen the solution you've provided somewhere - either in MacWorld or MacFormat - but couldn't remember the Gatekeeper bit!
I shall save it somewhere VERY safe now in case this happens again …
You have made an old man very happy and saved me from worrying that senile decay had suddenly set in. (I was 70 last week so you might understand the situation from that.)

Mac Pro stuck on gray screen after installing software for a new keyboard

I am having a huge issue with my very important work computer! For a few weeks, my Mac has been freezing on the gray screen during start up. Since I had two external hard drives plugged in, I would unplug one of them and the Mac would always restart correctly once one was unplugged. Well today I was installing software for a new keyboard and the mac prompted me to restart. Once I restarted, the gray screen came up again and no matter what I did it would not start up correctly again. I tried unplugging everything except the keyboard and monitor and nothing works. I tried ejecting the crash-causing CD with the keyboard using all of the commands I found on this forum board and nothing worked. I saw forums about manually ejecting the CD by pushing a pin-hole but I cannot find that pinhole anywhere! Then again, the CD might not even be the problem but since the computer gave me the gray screen of death right after using the CD I am thinking that it is the problem. I use this computer for editing a TV show and creating websites so there is a ton of files on it and I need to get it up and running again ASAP. Any suggestions would be appreciated and I am sure by now you can tell that I am not a Mac expert so please dumb it down for me. Thank you!!

I would start by breaking your thoughts and sentences out from one long paragraph.
Start at the basics.
Always have backups.
One at least that is a spare boot system you can use.
Clone your system. SuperDuper does a great job for only $29
Boot from another hard drive or last OS X DVD
Repair your drive with Apple Disk Utility along with 3rd party disk maintenance and repair
Hold Option key until the boot manager, then hold mouse to open optical drive.
You can hold mouse on startup and it will eject also.
Hold and continue to hold Shift key during startup to repair the boot drive in minimal fashion.
What device and driver? hint: never use CD, just go online as the CD is usually out of date anyway.
Fill in Mac OS X version and more about hardware would help in posts and in your profile signature.

Cannot install software for printer m521dn

Hello!
I have a problem, trying to install software for HP lj pro m521dn. Tried to use both Full Solution and basic print and scan drivers installer. OS is Win7 enterprise x64. Connection with printer is network. When installing, progress bar reaches 14% and reporting "Fatal error don't allows you to use this programm. Press OK to abort" (personal translate from russian, original message is "Фатальная ошибка не позволяет использовать продукт. Нажмите да чтобы выполнить отмену"). This trouble occures on multiple PC's, but not on all of them (average on 4 of 7). The only solution I found is full reinstallation of OS and installing software on fresh Windows without any drivers installed, except drivers for network card. Can you tell me something useful about this trouble?
P.S. Sorry for my bad English.

Hi @Ranlom
I suspect your question would be better answered in the HP Enterprise Business Community, as your HP Printer is a commercial model.
 
My technical expertise is with consumer products and software, I am sure the commercial folks would be happy to help if you re-post your question for them to answer. The HP Enterprise Business Community is an HP Forum designed for the Commercial and Enterprise customers to help one another. I am sure you will find some HP folks there to help too.
 
Click here to view the Printing and Digital Imaging. When the page opens you will see the option to 'Log in' or 'Register Now' on the right. The commercial forums are separate from the consumer boards, thus you will need to register if you don't already have a commercial account.

Extend range of BEFW11S4 Wireless-B broadband router

Hello,
I curently have a linksys wireless-B broadband router (BEFW11S4) and would like to extend it's range, which device should I buy to accomplish this? I guess I could buy a linksys wireless-G access point (WAP54G), but I'm not sure it will work with an wireless-B router (BEFW11S4). Anyone, any ideas?
thanks in advance,
Joeri Kumbruck

yes.... wap54g doesn't work with a wireless - b router.. it will work wirelessly only with another wap54g or wrt54g....even wap11 might not help you..
if you have befw11s4 v 4...then you can try setting up a range expander with it...however , make sure that both the devices have the latest firmware.....
