Router problems. Multiple Linksys connections

I am having an issue with one of my computer connections to my Linksys WRT110 router. I am using a WUSB100 USB adapter on my HP computer with Windows Vista. I set up one connection to the Router initally and just used the default Linksys router name. It was working fine but now it is always disconnected and when I look at the connection it is connected to Linksys 2 3 4 or some other weird linksys router that are all really my Router. When I look for availible net works it lists my original Linksys router but there are all these LInksys 2 linksys 3 and Linksys 2 3 4 routers too. They are not other linksys routers in the hood they are all comming from my router. how can i get it to connect to my Linksys router only instead of connecting to these other connections that it seem to be renaming itself.

On your computer click on Start - Control Panel - Network and Sharing center and then under task click on "Manage Wireless Network" and in the preferred network list remove all the networks and then close that window... Now again in the Network and sharing center window... click on Connect to a Network and search for your wireless network and try to connect to your network... Once connected to your network check if you are Online.

Linksys Connect CD/Downloadable Software compatibility problem with Mac OSX 10.4.11

I purchased a Linksys E1200 and I am running Mac OSX 10.4.11. As I have a G4 eMac, I cannot run a higher operating software. The CD that came with the E1200 will not launch the Linksys Connect software, as it is not compatible with Mac OSX 10.4.11. When I download Linksys Connect software from the support section of the Linksys site (version 1 or 2), same problem. I have read that I can use the E1200 with Mac OSX 10.4.11, but how? Getting very frustrated and would appreciate any practical advice/help. Thanks!
Solved!

Hi bassist71,
You may actually do the setup manually. It's done by accessing the setup page of the route through 192.168.1.1 and configuring the settings according to your Internet connection type. If you have a Cable connection, you may check this link, http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=0ff4c94586a345d082828ec2161aaecf_3686.xml&pid=80&r...

WRT300N V1.1 (Firmware Version: v1.51.2) Connection error. Router Problem! pls help

Hi,
I am having a problem with my linksys router. When i connect from my modem>linksys router>wired/wirelesss computer, i am unable to connect to the internet, but my connection shows 100%(excellent). So, i tried to connect my wired computer directly to my modem, the internet is working perfectly!
So i tried to reset the router, by holding the reset button for 30seconds. and then re-config my router setting. Finally, the internet is working. But when i wake up the next day, and tried to switch on the internet, the router can't work again.
SO i reset it again.It worked. But failed during the next few hours/days.
PLEASE Help me! I do not always wish to reset my router again and again. i will really appreciate your HELP????

Reduce the MTU value to 1300 and click on save settings on the setup page of the router and check.

Airport Express and Linksys Router Problem

I have a Linksys wireless router through which I connect to the internet using my Macbook Pro without any difficulties. I recently purchased an Airport Express unit in order to connect to my stereo and play music using Itunes. However, I seem to be unable to set up the Airport Express as the Airpor Utility does not seem to be able to find it. I tried connecting it to the router using an ethernet cable and this did not seem to solve the problem? Does anyone have any recommendations to solve this problem?

Thank you for the suggestion. That allowed me to see it to configure it but once I disconnect it to restart it I the network cannot find it and it just blinks orange. I am guessing that it is because I have set the network security incorrectly. I set it at WEP 128. How do I check to see how the Linksys is configured? Or do you think it might be something else? Thank you.

Addition of third computer in network causes router to drop internet connection (is the problem Dropbox???)

This is not specifically about MacBook Pros, per se, but since all of the communities are based on specific products, I chose it since it applies to two of the devices concerned.
We have a LINKSYS WRT54G router in our home connected to cable internet.
We normally run a number of iOS devices on it at any given time (iPhone 5, iPhone 4s, iPhone 4, two iPad 2nd gen., one iPad Mini with Retina), and almost at all times, an Intel MacBook Pro on 10.6. We sometimes also have an Intel MacBook (black) on 10.6. These all live in harmony just fine. Both laptops have Dropbox on them, but signed in on different user accounts.
I used to have someone working at my house quite often on an Intel MacBook Pro on 10.7, also using Dropbox (but signed into a unique account). Whenever she had her computer on in our house, it would often cause the network to just drop the internet connection suddenly. The network would still have a strong signal, internet just wouldn't work.
We never quite figured it out. We had to reset the router constantly. It was NOT the modem -- you could reset just the router and the results were the same as if you had reset the modem. I didn't pursue a fix since she has since stopped working here.
Recently we just added an Intel iMac on 10.6 to the house, and it is doing the same thing. The only difference is this time, it's logged into the same Dropbox account as my MacBook Pro. At first, it seemed as if there was an issue if both were trying to update at the same time. When I paused syncing on one computer or throttled the upload/download bandwidth, it seemed to get better. However, lately, I am not syncing any large files -- or any files at all, it seems, sometimes -- and I also kept one machine on throttled connections, while a THIRD machine is even off completely...and it's still kicking the internet connection off.
Any ideas? I'm getting really tired of re-setting it every so often.
Thank you!

Also, there are no other networks we pick up here. Sometimes, we randomly get the neighbor's, but it's protected and we don't ever join it.
Try the basics first:
Change your router channel number. Most times this works & is all you have to do.
Disconnect & reconnect your modem. unplug it for about 10 seconds. Plug it back in. Do the same for Apple’s routers. Wait for everything to reboot.
System Preferences>Network
Click the Assist Me button.
In the next window that pops up, click the Diagnostic button & do the necessary.

Linksys connection help: Router WRT54G

Hi,
I currently have a wireless routher WRT54G and have had it for about 4 years now. Ever since purchasing it, I have frequently had problems with its connection. It will randomly stop connecting to the internet. I know nothing is wrong with the modem or the actual internet, because connecting directly to the modem allows me to regularly search the internet.
I have called the linksys technical support/customer service several times and they refuse to help me at all, or even let me speak with a technician unless I pay a $32 extended service fee, because apparently my warranty has run out. So if anyone at all could help me solve this problem and be able to reconnect to the internet using the wireless router, because linksys representitives are utterly useless, it would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance

Are you saying that when using the router with a cable to your PC you have no problems reaching the internet, BUT when you use a wireless connection to your PC you have an intermittent connection to the internet?

Persistent problems with Linksys WRT54GS Wireless Router

I'm currently running Vista with a Linksys WRT54GS router. As earlier discussed in this forum I am still having intermittent problems with the ATV taking down my network. Anyone else experienced this and come up with a sure fire fix?
When it's working I like the set up but I have to say, it is not nearly stable enough to be an everyday solution for getting my music and photos to my living room.
Thanks.

Hi, I am having the same problem -- my 2WIRE modem from AT&T recently blew up. So, I purchased the WRT54GS. As soon as I reconnected the AppleTV to the new router via a wireless connection, all of my machines (Mac and PC) lost their internet connections. I'm seriously considering going out and getting another 2WIRE.

Problem about financial reporting studio(assign multiple db connection)

Hi,
I need to assign multiple database connections to a grid in Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting Studio
To do this, I performed the following steps:
- Open a report.
- In a grid, select one column for which I want to change the database connection.
- In the Column Properties sheet, click the Select Database Connection button, .
- In the Select a Database Connection dialog box, select a database connection from the Database Connection drop-down list, then Click OK.
- In the Map Dimensions Between... dialog box, map dimensions between the default database connection and the selected database connection. I do this by selecting a dimension from the pull-down list in the right column for each dimension in the left column.
- Optional: Select an alias table for the new database connection.
- Click OK.
But after last step I have received next error:
*; nested exception is:*
java.lang.NullPointerException
Can someone explain the source of this error?
And help me please solve this problem because I didn’t receive figures in that column where I changed database connection.
Thank you in advance!

I'm sure that both DB connections has the same dimension hierarchy. I can open the repot, but in it I don't see figures in that column where I've changed database connection...

Connecting to Router problem

Hi
My MBP 10.6.7 connects to my Netgear router no problem. The TCP/IP settings are
Config IPv4 - Using DHCP
Config IPv6 - Automatically
The exact settings on an iMac 10.6.6 in the same house won't connect to the router. So I tried to setup the TCP/IP settings manually so that they mirrored the settings of the MBP and still no joy. I seem to be getting a timeout error when trying to connect.
I had a previous problem a few weeks ago connecting to the router via my MBP but that was sorted out by changing settings in the router via Netgear tech support but everything is fine now.
As I type this and after restarting the iMac the Airport card is recognising the router and saying it is connecting via an IP address but nothing is happening in Safari.

Please note that there isn't a problem with the my Internet connection because when I plug an Ethernet cable straight into the router the is a connection no problem.
OK, then if you connect the computer via Ethernet there is a solid connection? It's only wireless, then, that isn't connecting? Am I understanding this correctly?
The IP address doesn't start with 169.
Is there an IP address or is it blank? If there is an IP address what is it? What is the router IP and the network mask? And, I assume you have the wireless configured to use DHCP? You might try turning off the IPv6 configuration.
Yes, I suppose there could be a problem with the router. Some non-Apple routers just don't quite work right with Macs for some reason. I would also check the NetGear support site for possible firmware updates for the router. Sometimes a firmware update brings older routers up to snuff or fix problems when using them with Macs. I've had a mixed bag of success with non-Apple routers over the years, so now I stick with Apple routers.
Another thing you might try is to reset the router. Usually the will be a small button on the rear of the router marked Reset. You may have to use a toothpick to depress it. Are you able to configure the router using your browser?

New Galaxy 5s. Trying to connect to a guest wireless that routes browser to a login screen. The wireless will not connect (gives authentication error), so will not pull up browser window. My previous Android did not have this problem (it would connect and immediately reroute to the login screeen).

Would you please try manually set the DNS address on client NIC to the IP of your server, then try run the connector again?

Comcast just replaced my cable modem/wireless router. All devices connect properly except my iPhone 4. It shows itself to be connected to the network, but it does not load any web page. Resetting the iPhone does not solve the problem. Any suggestions?

Thank you for your response.
I had rebooted the router (several times, actually), to no avail.
I do not know the answer to whether MAC filtering is enabled on the router. Have tried to find info about that, but unsuccessfully. Router is an Arris TG852G, supplied by Comcast. I would be surprised if MAC filtering were the issue, since in addition to the computer, we have successfully connected several other devices to the wifi, namely an iPad, a Android phone and a Kindle Fire - all able to access internet pages through the wifi, and all without a need to add the device to a MAC address whitelist. To add to the mystery, the Comcast tech was able to connect his iPhone 4 to my network and access web pages. He was unable to connect my iPhone, however, after trying for some time.
I seem to recall reading somewhere that an iPhone cannot connect to a wireless "n" router, only "b" or "g". The Arris router is described as a n/g/b compliant router, and as noted the Comcast tech was able to connect his iPhone, so don't know why that would be the issue here.
By the way, my iPhone does connect wirelessly to my network at home. This difficulty is at a second home.
Any other thoughts would be appreciated.

I started to have connectivity issues with a linksys router. The linksys rep suggested ...Check from Apple if they have some particular ports for the Apple TV that we might need to open on the router, anyone have any suggestions for this?

Hi RonWM,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
This article lists the ports that are used by the Apple TV:

I just purchased a new Linksys E2500 router. It will connect to all my other devices, but does not recognize the password when sent from the PowerBook G4.

I just purchased a new Linksys E2500 router. It will connect to all my other devices, but does not recognize the password when sent from the PowerBook G4. When I try it responds that the password is invalid. I have connected my MacBook Pro, iPad and iPod Touch with the same password.

Try putting $ (a dollar sign) in front of the password.

Our home network has multiple devices connected by iCloud. Having problem with Calendar. On one iMac, all the events are duplicated. How can I correct that problem? Under the Calendar accounts, I had my Apple id listed and also just iCloud.

Our home network has multiple devices connected by iCloud: 2 iMacs, 2 iPhone 4s, 1 MacPro Laptop, and 1 iPad 2. When using Calendar, all the events were
duplicated on my husbands iMac. On his computer, under Calendar accounts, I had included iCloud and also my iCloud ID. I thought that because I had two accounts listed that were connected to iCloud, that might be the cause of the duplication. When I deleted ithe calendars from one of the accounts, it resulted
in deleting all of the events on all of our network devices!
I have since entered some new events into Calendar from my iMac and from my iPhone. These appear correctly on all devices except my husband's iMac where they are again all duplicated.
I have two questions: 1) How can I eliminate the duplicated events on my husband's computer and 2) How do I retrieve the old wiped out Calendar events from
Time Capsule. I don't know how to find Calendar in the Time Capsule. If I find the Calendar information in Time Capsule, how do I transfer it to my current Calendars?
I was obtaining phone help from one of the Apple techs at Apple Support, but our call was disconnected part way through. Didn't know how to reconnect with the tech.
Thanks for any help.

The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
