Router won't connect comps to the net, can't acess router through comps either!!

Hey, umm... I was playin a game for a bit, and suddenly I got booted off the net. I thought it was the game just spiting me (WoW does that sometimes. It hates everyone), but it turned out to be the internet.
I called comcast, confirmed that my internet was ok, and decided to call linksys.
I went to the tech support via phone, dialed the number, and the number is telling me it can't connect the call.
So, I came here.
Now, normally I can always get into the router via my comp to see what the deal is with it. This time though, I can't even acess it!
It tells me it couldn't connect every time I try to get into it, from all the computers.
I figured it could just be a bum wire messin with me. So I went into the closet and pulled out a new one that I had just got. That one didn't work either.
Then I took one of the wires I knew worked (because it connected the computer to the modem and got online fine), and plugged it in. It didn't work either.
So frusterating...
Anyways, I upgraded the routers firmware the other day after hearing that it would give me more port fowarding slots (It DESPERATLY needs more), and all was well up until now.
It's been about 5 days since I did that, so I don't know what woulda caused this to happen all of a sudden.
Espically not being able to get to the router through a computer. That's just weird...
Well, if anyone knows anything, lemme know.
Also, let me know if the phone support comes back up some time soon.

On a side note, im not using the wireless function, and I have it turned off in the settings.

Router Won't Connect to modem so i can't get internet

All right -_- i have tried lots of stuff with this so i am getting irritated sorry. Here is my info I have a Linksys Wireless Router with SpeedBoost Firmware Version 7.2 (latest) WRT54GS. I am trying to use it with a Sprint 645 Series Modem. My IP while connected to the router and the router connected to the Modem is 192.168.1.100 which my ISP said was ok for it to work. While it is just connected to my modem it is that same thing except replace the 100 with 1. My ISP uses a security measure where The DHCP Thing is 192.168.1.1 and so is the DNS server, and the Default Gateway and im not sure if that has anything to do with it. I have used ping in the Command Prompt to make sure i am connected to the router when its plugged up and it is. This is a new router. I have perfectly fine internet with just Modem. I have tried resetting the Router and that didn't work -_-. I dont think it matters anymore because i have tried fixing it the way lots of people have told me to and it didnt work but i will tell u anyway. When i set up the router the first time i hooked everything up and turned it all on at first. Then i saw that it said Run CD first before connecting cables... those weren't in the instructions but wtv... anyway resetting it should have fixed it or so i was told by other people on this forum. I am using a Laptop with Windows Vista, and i don't have access to a desktop in case i need one XD. I can connect to the Router fine because i can get to the setup page.. and i can connect wirelessly.. The ONLY problem appears to be that the Router doesn't connect to the Modem... for wtv reason -_- I think its because of the whole security measure about how the DHCP and DSN and Gateway are all 192.168.1.1, but that is just me. I am sorry this is so long but I really want this fixed -_- i have had this Router for a month and its getting really annoying so please help . My ISP is Embarq. I ran the setup CD and I got all the way through to the last step (waiting for router) after connecting the power supply to the wall for the router. It just sits there forever and says afterwards "Error:322 Can't find router or something like that. It gives 3 steps to try to fix it. It says to make sure the Router is plugged in (it is) , it also says to make sure u didn't actually plug in your old router, (i dont have one -_-) and then retry the setup. and by setup i mean where u plug all the cords in the right way. *sigh*
If u need anything else please ask.

Your second post said 'ignore this" so I guess everyone thought you had got it fixed....
When you connect through your router you have two instances of DHCP going on...one is your DSL modem giving your router an IP address on it's WAN interface. The other is the router giving your computer an IP address via the router's DHCP server. The IP the modem gives your router is in the 192.168.1.0 network. Unfortunately, by default, the LAN IP address reange on Linksys routers is also in that range. To get this to work, you need to set your LAN ip on the router to 192.168.2.1, so that the LAN and WAN interfaces of the router are in different networks.
To do that, unplug the router from the DSL modem, power it and your computer down, then connect the computer to the router using an ethernet cable. Power up the router, and the computer, then browse to 192.168.1.1. Change the LAN IP on the router setup to 192.168.2.1, save the configuration, then reboot the computer. Once the computer comes back up, browse to 192.168.2.1...you should be able to get to the router setup GUI.
Power down the router, and the DSL modem, connect the router to the modem via the Internet port using an ethernet cable, then power up the modem, then the router....you should be good to go...

Charger won't connect in all the way.

Hey, I have a fifth generation ipod touch. The charger won't connect in all the way. Plus it won't charge at all. I don't remember doing anything to it at all. My dad is usually the one that charges it for me in the morning. Do you think he put the usb the wrong way and forced it. I'm not sure why it's like this. I had a warranty thing. I never filled it out is it to late? I just got this about a few months ago.

Plug into what?
The iPod? The Ligntning connector plugs into theiPod ither way.
A USB port?

The internal drive has failed.
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional — ask if you need guidance.
If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.

My iPod Touch 5th generation is in recovery mode, and my iPod won't connect to iTunes so I can restore it, any ideas on how to fix it?

Alright, here are the details: my iPod Touch 5th gen. is stuck in recovery mode, and it won't connect to iTunes so I can restore it. Now, I know I have the latest version of iTunes, I have deleted it & reinstalled it, and even restarted my computer, but it still won't come up in iTunes...What should I do??

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
When it says place the iPod in recovery mode use one of these program

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My wrt 54g router won't connect to the internet

I'm unable to even get an internet connection with my router, so I cannot access the router configuration settings page. I already made sure that the ethernet cables weren't the problem. I hook the cables up as instructed, but can't get the internet connection. I'm running Winows Vista Home Premium and according to my ISP (cable service), the ISP settings should already be set up to connect automatically with the router. It's a used router (not new) and I've already reset it several times........Help would be appreciated.

Bypass the router and connect the computer directly to the modem. make sure that you can access the Internet directly through the modem.
Connect the modem to the Internet port and computer to the Ethernet port on the router.
Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait for 30 seconds. Power cycle the router and reconfigure it.
Check the IP address on your computer. You should get the valid IP address like 192.168.1.xxx.
Try to ping the router IP address 192.168.1.1.
If you get replies from the router IP address then try to access the setup page of the router.
Follow this link to configure the router with Cable Internet service.

Iphone connects to router, won't connect to internet

Searching back through the forums, there seem to be some kinda similar problems, and individually anecdotal solutions to them, but I wanted to see if anyone is experiencing something similar to my problem and/or has a definitive solution.
I can connect to my wifi router (d-link dir-625) no problem. iphone shows a strong connection and I can even access the router's configuration and settings site in safari.
I cannot, however, access anything that requires an internet connection (web pages, weather, etc.) when connected to the router. Safari just hangs while trying to access any web page and eventually gives an "sfari could not open the page because the server stopped responding" message.
This has happened with 2.0 and 2.0.1 and 2.0.2. Didn't have this problem with the 1.whatevers. I've repeatedly tried to renew the lease, forget the network, and tried multiple DNS options that people have mentioned. In fact, the closest answer anyone seems to have had was setting the DNS the same as the router's http address. My phone connects to the router with the dns already identical to the http address (192.168.0.1). And like I said, I can access the router's settings page, change whatever I want on the router with my iphone. But can't ever seem to get the internet to work.
Any network gurus have any suggestions?

I have both an iPhone 3G and an iPod Touch. Both have had this problem with 2.0.0, 2.0.1, and 2.0.2. I didn't have the 3G prior to 2.0, but I had the iPod Touch, and the touch connected to my wifi setup fine then.
I experience the problem regardless of whether my router is set to WPA, WEP, or no security. (Router is a Linksys WRT54G.)
Here's a very specific reproduction case. I go to settings, Wi-Fi, and choose my network. After entering the password successfully, I click the blue arrow and see that DHCP has correctly found an IP address for the device. I can even ping to the device from my other computers on the network. Interestingly, the ping times are erratic and tend to be long--up to half a second but as low as 80ms (as opposed to ~1 or 2ms pinging the router itself from a computer). Now I go to Safari on the device and visit any URL--say www.apple.com. I see the blue wifi waves on the status bar. The spinner is spinning. The address bar shows about 5% blue as if the page was beginning to load. But then for about 1 minute the bar doesn't move, and finally I get an error: "Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding." All applications that use the net behave the same way. I am able to access my router's setup page directly. Interestingly, if I try to access an external site numerically--like http://17.149.160.10 for Apple, the blue bar creeps to about the 10% mark before freezing and progressing no farther.
There's definitely something funny going on with the new software's wireless access. It may have to do with the router, but it doesn't sound specific to the router.

E1200 Router won't connect to Ipad

We have just installed the E1200 wireless router. We are able to access the internet from our home computers, however we cannot get the IPAD connected. When we try to find our wireless network to connect to it doesn't display yet our we can still see our neighbors wireless networks. Please help!

In reference to your post where you cannot see the wireless network on your I-pad, you can try the following:-
a) Try to change the channel on your linksys router to either 1,3,6,9 or 11. The following link shows how to change the channel http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&vw=1&articleid=4009
b) Try to change the network name (SSID) of the router. The following link shows how to change the network name (SSID) http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=80&vw=1&articleid=4037

IPhone 3G won't connect to D-Link DIR-655 Wireless N Router

My wife and I picked up iPhone 3Gs last week, and we got home and instantly had issues connecting to our home's Wi-Fi. I assumed at first it was an iPhone issue, but think it's likely more an issue with my router. The router is brand new (two months old). I have updated the firmware to the most current (version 1.11). Both iPhones apparently connect to the router (they show Wi-Fi bars and it shows full strength), however, when I attempt to access the iTunes store, I got an error that it fails to connect, that I need to be connected to via Wi-Fi to access. I've tried everything with the router I can think of (turning of wireless security, using only WPA vs. WPA2, and having a very simple password). With each setting, it shows the phone is connected, but iTunes says I'm not. I've successfully connected to 5 other wi-fi routers without issue. Some have similar settings to my home router. Other router models I've connected to include Linksys, Trendnet, and D-Link. However, none of those have been a N router. I set my DIR-655 to work only in the wireless b and g range only, reset networking on my phones, but still doesn't work. I just don't know if there's something I'm overlooking on the settings that might keep the devices from working properly together. Any thoughts.

If it works on other networks it is most likely a compatible issue with your router (as you have surmised). Do you have MAC filtering enabled on your router? If so, have you entered the MAC address of the phone (In Settings/General/About it is called WiFi Address).
When you are connected to your router go to Settings/WiFi and tap the arrow to the right of the network name. Look at the IP address of the phone. If its pattern is 169.254.x.y this means your router is not assigning an IP address to the phone. That is almost certainly a router issue.
Next look at the DNS address. Is it the same as the DNS address on your other computers? As an experiment try changing it to a public DNS address like the ones provided by OpenDNS (www.opendns.com), 208.67.222.222.

1 What do you mean by System Information? Is that System Preferences?
System Information is located in Applications > Utilities. It shows lots of information about your Mac, including information about the printer queues.
dino1335 wrote:
2 When I go to System Preferences and click on the printer LBP6000/LBP6018 there is no information in that window about the URI if I click Open Print Queue there is no information other than the ID of the printer
In previous versions of OS X you did see this information via the Options & Supplies pane for the selected printer in Print & Scan. But with 10.8 this information was removed so know you need to use System Information > Printers to see information about an installed printer.

3 If I print a document it just goes to print (it goes through the printer but no information is printed on the paper) there is no print cue so I don't know where to find the information on the URI or what I am supposed to copy
I believe that the document does not print because the print queue has not been created correctly. The CAPT driver requires a specific queue name and if the queue name is wrong then you will not be able to print.

FYI I also have a MacBook Pro (old) with Leopard which I also print to the same printer on and there isn't a problem with that just with this new MacPro which has Lion installed
Not surprised to read that. Mtn Lion has caused some issues for owners of CAPT printers, especially if they upgraded to 10.8 from 10.7 or 10.6.
Since you mention the ability to print on 10.5, I just want to check that you are physically moving the USB cable connected to the LBP from the 10.5 Mac to the 10.8 Mac, rather than sharing the printer from one Mac to the other. Because if you are sharing the printer from the 10.5 to the 10.8 Mac then this can be a cause of your current issue. The CAPT driver does not work when it is being shared to other Mac's.
