Security Wireless 857w router config.

Hi,
I do have adsl & wireless internet connection running properly under my Cisco 857w router.
However, I am trying to configuring with out success the (wap), my wifi internet connection still open for everyone.
I will really appreciate your advices.
Thanks in advance.
Daniel.

Hi Brandon,
Thanks for your response, but unfortunally I could not setup my Wireless Security yet.
With the following config I am unable to connect with my laptop:
Encryption mode: "Cipher TKIP"
Authentication Key Management:
Key Management: "Mandatory" "WPA"
WPA Preshared key: "xxxxxxxxx" "ascii"
I mean, if I want to connect with my laptop via wifi the router encryption modes need to be configure to (none).
Here below I attached my router config, maybe you can see what is wrong on it.
Thanks in advance.
Daniel

Help~ need to set up security lock on wireless-G router.

This may be a silly ? but we cant find the manual anywhere. We have had router up and running for quite some time but would like to add the security feature.
Is there an easy way to do this? I have found some generic "how-tos" on line but thought it would be easiest to get it from the manufacturer site.. any links with
directions or wisdom in how to do this? Thanks much~!

To setup the security on Linksys router...Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key...and click on save settings.
NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...

WRT54G firmware failure leaving no access to router config

I have a WRT54G router. Running Vista SP2 64-bit on a laptop wired to router. When I first tried to upgrade the firmware I was connected wirelessly. (I know, please just think it but don't type it) During the upgrade the internet connection disconnected and the upgrade failed. I am connecting right now wirelessly using someones unsecure network. I attempted to upgrade the firmware to 8.00.7. Since then I am unable to access the router config using IP 192.168.1.1. I have read as many posts as I can handle. I have checked and that is the IP showing in Vista, (Network & Sharing, view status, properties) however I cannot ping that IP. It times out every time. I have done all the resets (10 seconds and up to 1 minute) on the router and power cycle etc. Nothing. I downloaded the firmware utility and I get an error message everytime that it is unable to get responses from the server. I have tried my password, which I think is gone due to all the resets, and am using admin as the password. I have disabled my firewall. I do have Network Magic and when I checked control internet access it says I am able to do so. Is there a way to disable Network Magic? Can that be the issue? When all this started I had my own internet connetion. I'm in the process of moving so I have disconnected my internet service. Since I'm only trying to connect to the router locally, do I really need to have a live internet connection? Please, HELP! I don't want to buy a new router. This one has been very reliable. If I do have to buy something new, can you recommend something just as reliable.
There have been 2 or 3 times where it looked as though I was going to be able to connect to config interface and the firsrt basic screen loads with minimal data and no clickable links to allow me to change screens. The "&" from one of the links that is supposed to appear but does not, is the only thing that appears in that area and if I click it, I either get a error from IE that it cannot connect, or, it takes me to the Ports screen with minimal data and I cannot progress from there. In the top right corner of the screen, it does show the firmware version is 8.00.7. ?????
P.S. Obviously, I'm not very computer savvy so excuse me if I'm missing the obvious.

Linksys Wireless N Router w/ Belkin Wireless G Adapter Connection?

I recently bought a Linksys wireless n router to better serve my two new laptops with wireless n cards. They are now lightning fast and super reliable. However, my desktop, which has a Belkin wireless g card connects about a third as fast and last only about 5-10 minutes before needing to be reconnected, which can cometimes take a while itself. I changed the channel to 11 which helped a little and am running the router on 20 MHz only.
My previous router was a Belkin wireless G.
I'm looking for answers/explanations and possible solutions to speeding up my desktop's speed and increasing its reliability w/o jeopardizing my laptops' supreme performance.
Thanks for your help,
~Josh

Set the Channel Width to 40MHz only,Wide Channel to 9 and Standard Channel to 11-2.462GHz and click on save settings...Under the Advanced Wireless Settings...Change the Beacon Interval to 75,Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304,Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 and Click on Save Settings...Under the Security tab,uncheck.. dw(vs_internetfilter0);Filter Anonymous Internet Requests and click on save settings..Now,power cycle the router and check...

Add Wireless N Router To Network With An Actiontec Router

Hi everyone, I know this wireless N thing is being beaten to death but I just really need to be pointed in the right direction. I recently built a HTPC setup with a SiliconDust HD Homerun network tuner so I could share three tuners with computers on my network. I've got two PCs wired to the network right now which share them fine. But the problem I'm running into is when I try to set up my laptop to watch something wirelessly, usually a game in HD. The signal is very weak and I constantly lose the tuners because of that, not to mention the picture is very choppy. I saw on a Microsoft Windows Media Center site that they don't recommend streaming HD TV feeds over anything other than a wireless N connection. I currently have the standard Actiontec router that came with FiOS, and it doesn't the N band. Now, that router accesses the internet signal through a coax so I know I can't get rid of it, but I've seen mentioned in a couple of places that you can just add a wireless N router into the network and turn off the wireless on the Actiontec router. This is the router I was thinking of getting:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Cisco+Linksys+-+E1200+Wireless-N+Router+with+4-Port+Ethernet+Switch/2225...
My current network setup is like this: Actiontec router upstairs which carries internet to -> a gigabit switch connected to -> computer, tuners, and printer upstairs, with a line run to -> another gigabit switch downstairs which connects to -> a computer, and an XBox.
So a couple of questions about this:
- Where would this go on the network? Would it go after the router and before the switches, like I run the internet into the new router then out to the switch, or can I just add it to one of the switches?
- Will I need to do any sort of port forwarding or anything, or assiging of IP addresses?
- Anything else I should know or might run into?
I love my FiOS service so hopefully this will help me get even more out of it!
Solved!

I wanted to upgrade to an N protocol wireless router but since Verizon doesn’t offer the option, I purchased a Netgear N600. Unfortunately, after it arrived, I discovered that it didn’t have a coax connection as did the Verizon Actiontec. I then set out to find out how to daisy chain the routers to leave the Actiontec connected to the coax and connect the two routers via Ethernet cable. To my good fortune, during the time I spent on the phone with Netgear, I learned my way around their router interface and with the help of a co-worker that actually has a solid understanding of router/network configuration, I finally got everything working correctly – my port forwarding for RDC login worked, I could connect devices to either router and everything could once again see each other (e.g. PC, printer via Ethernet, Blu-ray player for Netflix, receiver for streaming Windows Media Player). Hopefully, this post will help you get up and running quickly and avoid the several hours I spent groping in the dark for the correct configuration.
Login to Verizon Actiontec router (type 192.168.1.1 into browser address bar).
No configuration changes are necessary on the Actiontec, you just need to identify an open IP address range in My Network section (I chose 192.168.1.50). This will be used as your static IP address of the Netgear router LAN settings.
Connect you PC via Ethernet cable directly into an Ethernet port (not WAN/Internet) on the Netgear router. No other connections are needed at this point.
Note: Do not use the Netgear wizard CD to setup the router. It will not take you through the necessary steps as you’re not setting it up as a router.
Login to the Netgear router (type routerlogin.net into the browser address bar) using the default login of “admin” and password “password”. Depending on your firmware version, your interface may vary but hopefully you’ll be able to find the same configuration options in either but perhaps not in the same order or placement. For subsequent logins after the router is active, you may need to type the Netgear IP address (e.g. 192.168.1.50) as routerlogin.net may open a search.
At the top of the Netgear genie, click on the Advanced tab.
On the left side, expand Setup, then select Internet Setup.
Select “Get dynamically from ISP”, under Internet IP Address.
Under Domain Name Server (DNS) Address, select “Use These DNS Servers”, and enter the IP Address of your Actiontec router (e.g. 192.168.1.1) in the Primary DNS” field.
Next go down a few options within Setup to Wireless Setup.
In the Wireless Network 2.4GHz section, click Enable SSID broadcast.
Enter a meaningful name in “Name (SSID)” as this is what will be displayed for your wireless connection.
For Channel, select Auto.
For Mode, select “Up to 300 Mbps”.
Security Options, recommend WPK2-PSK[AES] for longer/stronger password options.
Set the password of your choice.
Repeat the same process for Wireless Network 5GHz, except vary the name slightly so you’ll be able to distinguish which band you’ll connect to. You can optionally use the same or different password as your 2.4GHz. The only exception is you’ll have to select a Channel of your choice.
Next go down a couple more options within Setup to the LAN Setup.
In the LAN TCP/IP Setup section, enter the IP Address you chose in step 2 (e.g. 192.168.1.50).
Enter the IP Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
Leave the block for “Use Router as DHCP Server” blank as your IP assignment will be handled by your Actiontec router.
You’re now finished with the configuration and you can connect the Actiontec router to the Netgear router using an Ethernet cable using the LAN ports (Note: do not connect the two routers using the WAN/Internet ports on either). You may connect your devices (PC, printers, A/V devices, etc.) to either router. If you have devices that are gigabit capable, you’ll want to connect them to the Netgear router to take advantage of the higher speed.
To avoid any possible interference between the 2.4GHz range of the two routers, you can optionally turn off the Actiontec wireless capability by logging into the Actiontec router admin (described above), go to the My Router tab, and there should be an option for “Change Wireless Settings” in the Quick Links section. Option 1 allows you to turn On/Off the wireless portion of the router.

Can't connect to Wireless N Router at N speed

I'm new to Mac and not very savvy with networking, but this has me stumped. I just recently purchased a new MacBook (Jan 2010). I had no real issue connecting to my home network through my Linksys WRT54G Router, but it only ran at 54Mbit/s. I purchased a new Linksys WRT120N Router, and still only connect at 54Mbit/s!
What's aggravating is the fact I can connect to my neighbor's Belkin Wireless N router at 144Mbit/s, so I know it's capable of higher connection speeds. In fact, my MacBook keeps dropping my secured home network connection and automatically connecting to his unsecured wireless network!
Any suggestion on how I can get my MacBook to connect to my Linksys Wireless N router at the speed it connects to my neighbors?
I also have a Windows Laptop with a Wireless G card, so I have to leave the setting on auto or I can't connect it the the network.
Thanks for any help!

I spoke with Linksys Tech Support and they had me change from WPA to WPA 2. More info under About this Mac now reports:
PHY Mode: 802.11n
BSSID: 0:25:9c:5:73:61
Channel: 9
Network Type: Infrastructure
Security: WPA2 Personal
Signal / Noise: -45 dBm / -96 dBm
Transmit Rate: 59
MCS Index: 6
Where it was reporting PHY Mode 802.11g before, but still only shows a transmit rate of 59, over the transmit rate of 54 before.
Unfortunately, the Chat Session with Linksys was cut off before I could ask why, or how to fix it!
This is what my neighbor's router is reporting through More Info:
BelkinN_Wireless582902:
PHY Mode: 802.11n
BSSID: 0:22:75:58:29:2
Channel: 1,1
Network Type: Infrastructure
Security: None
Signal / Noise: -79 dBm / -97 dBm
I noticed his Channel listed as 1,1 as mine is 9. Would this indicate he could possibly have a dual channel router and thus the higher speed?
When I run the Network Utility, it reports a Link Speed of 72Mbit/s where that was 54Mbit/s before changing to WPA 2. Is 72Mbit/s the best I can hope for out of this router? Thanks again...

HP Deskjet 3050 - Unable to connect to WPA secured wireless network

Hello,
My first post here so please excuse any faux pas on my part. I bought this HP Deskjet 3050 a week ago and have been waging war with it ever since. I'd be really grateful if someone could possibly advise on how I can resolve this.
I am unable to connect the printer to my secured wireless network, even though other computers, cell phones, etc. are connected without issue. I have tried WPA, WPA2 and WPA2-Mixed security modes with the same failure. Specifically, the connection wizard reaches 66% and then displays the error that the wizard is unable to find network/printer. If I disable the security, the printer connects fine.
I'm using a Linksys WRVS4400N router with firewall and associated firewall settings disabled. The router is broadcasting on 802.11G/N mixed mode.
I'm installing the software supplied on the setup CD on a Windows XP SP3 system. I have confirmed that the network the PC and printer are connected to are the same.
A question as well, if I may: I haven't tried these drivers yet but I see there are updated drivers for the printer dated 14/12/2010. The release notes indicate improved networking, but don't elaborate beyond this. Does anyone know if there was a known problem with connecting to secured networks that has now been fixed?
Finally, just a note that I'm partially sighted and am using a screen reader on all systems. I'll try my best to be as helpful as I can but please do excuse me if I occasionally can't find settings, etc. on screen and need a bit more detailed help.
Thanks in advance for your help, which I really will appreciated.
Have a pleasant day,
All the best for now and take care,
Hussein.

HI,
firstly, apologies for the delay getting back to you. Poor health has meant I've had little time nor inclination to do much on the computer side of htings.
Anyway, I'm please to say the problem with the HP 3050 failing to connect to my network is now solved. It seems to be a bug with the setup software, and that seems to include the latest version posted Dec 2010.
To resolve the problem, I did the following:
1. Disable all security options for the network, so it's just an open network.
2. Connect the HP 3050 to the network using the setup wizard. This time it connected OK for me.
3. Locate the printer's IP address. I used the client list table accessed through my router's interface. You may be able to get this through the printer's on-screen menu, but as I'm partially sighted, this wasn't an option for me.
4. Log into the printer's control panel at http://ip.address.of.printer e.g. http://192.168.2.108
5. Under the advanced options, configure the settings for the network, including security protocol and passphrase. Remember to enter the SSID of the network exactly as configured on the router.
6. Apply the settings and log out of the printer's control panel.
7. Log back into the router's control panel and re-apply the security options. Be sure that they match those match those entered for the printer.
Hopefully this will be of use to others in the same position.
Thanks again for your time.
Best,
H.

Can't connect PlayBook to *my* WPA2 wifi (D-Link Wireless N Router) - very frustrated

I'm gettting massively frustrated with this and would appreciate any assistance.
OK, so to start I'm a developer and I've managed to use my PlayBook for months, connecting to various WiFi networks without issue... except at home.
I have actually connected to it 100's of times, but the connection is flakey and often it fails to connect because it can't get an IP Address (my router is set to offer up 100's of them by DHCP... ONLY my PlayBook has issues getting one)
I have thus far had no issue connecting the following devices to my router:
Laptops (5 different brands/models),
iPad,
iPod (4 different devices)
Blackberry phones (3 different models)
iPhone (2 different models)
but the PlayBook always seems to have issues...
I've tried connecting using the "sync" WPS feature both by pressing the button on the router, as well as entering a PIN on the router config page - no luck.
I've tried entering the correct password multiple times - no luck... it always fails to get an IP Address.
I've even pre-assigned a dedicated IP Address to the MAC Address of the PlayBook... (all my other devices skip it) yet the PlayBook won't take it.
The router is a D-Link DIR-615 H/W /ver C1, Firmware ver 3.13NA Wireless N.
Its entirely possible that I've goofed something up, and I'm willing to try anything to resolve it - however if anyone else is having similar issues please chime in... and for anyone at RIM with 5min free... a quick "paranoia" once over look at the connecting / IP gathering code in this area would be greatly appreciated... in case there's an odd "off by 1" error of some kind in this area.
Finally, I'm not sure if there is any more info to provide when the PlayBook does fail to get an IP... but if there is an error message or log that us users can look at (or get in an OS update) it would be helpful in trying to diagnose why the connection fails.
Thanks for any advice,
Steve

I was having the same issue until yesterday.
After spending a couple of nights dealing with BB Support techs, I came up with this steps and worked for me, even though that Playbook should connect automatically as other devices do. Moreover, of course I am not going to ask everyday the IT guys for a modem reset
Here it goes :
1- If you own a lap top/pc connected to your work Wifi network, open the network adapter window on the PC. Go to wifi adapter and left-click on properties in order to display detailed connection status.
2- From there you may obtain a valid subnet mask, Default Gateway, Primary DNS and Secondary DNS.
3- Since the IP Address was already obtained by your Playbook while trying to connect, it will be asking for the same IP each time, so write down the Playbook IP too. You can access it from the wifi? Icon on the wifi configuration script on the playbook.
(The issue here was that for some reason, my Playbook on "auto IP mode" was choosing a different default gateway number than the correct one. I still can't figure why, but I'm not going to invest more time on it, until a new software update becomes available and go from there.)
4- In your playbook tap the wifi icon and go to saved networks, tap on edit (pencil) and delete your office previous connection.
5- Create manually a new wifi connection and unselect "auto IP mode". You will have the opportunity to copy all the information mentioned above. IP, Subnet Mask, Primary DNS. Secondary DNS and Default Gateway.
6- Tap save and connect.
Hopefully you Playbook will be online and ready to navigate.

Connecting with secure wireless

Hi, this is my 1st venture with an apple computer but I seem to have hit a wall already.
I am using a wireless G unbranded router that is secured by a 10 digit WEP passcode, it can also be set up to use WPA but I had trouble with the vista laptop that connects to the network using WPA, there is also an XP laptop which will connect using either. I believe the WEP is only 64 bit so I'll try upping it to 128 and see what happens. For information there are 3 laptops that need to connect all with different operating systems, OSX, XP & Vista.
The problem is my MBP doesn't like the secured connection, it will connect wirelessly if the connection is unsecured or it will connect via ethernet so I know it can communicate with the router.
If I secure the connection by WEP then it says connection failed or if I do it by WPA then it says connection timed out, at no time does it have trouble seeing the network.
Does anyone know what i need to do to get it working. I believe the WEP is only 64 bit so I'll try upping it to 128 and see what happens but does anyone else have any other ideas?
Many thanks
James

Right I am very pleased to say that I am typing this on my secured wireless connection, I could go on about how much I'm loving the laptop but I'm sure you already know.
I have noticed that when I reboot or put it to sleep that when it comes back on it won't connect again, it says that none of my prefered networks are available but when I click connect it remembers the key but states login failed. In order to connect I use the assist function then diagnostics, select airport, select my network, it then asks if my network is PPPoE or DHCP, I select DHCP, then it scans and states that the connection appears to be working correctly and I'm able to use the net.
I have to do this everytime, I have updated to the latest software available for everything but it's made no difference. Is there anything that I am doing wrong?
Thanks again

Secure wireless and generic ldap

Hi All,
I'm looking into setting up a secure wireless network and can't seem to find a good fit with environment we have.
Environment:
WLC's
ACS 4.1
Generic ldap
95% of laptops use built in Windows XP(SP3) configuration tool.
I can get everything working fine with Dell Wireless Utility or Intel utility in XP, Vista built in or 3rd party client but I CAN'T seem to get Windows XP built in client to work with anything.
I read the EAP Authentication Protocol and User Database Compatibility document and found out that I can use EAP-GTC, EAP-FAST phase 2 and EAP-TLS.
I'm looking into the most seamless way for our users to connect and taking "20 minutes" to configure their network card isn't a really good option.
Any ideas or suggestion (something I'm missing) would be greatly appreciated.
Craig

Hi. I am currently running a whole mix of clients with regards to WPA security. I have most of the laptops on their respective ccx supplicant / utility. However I do have users that run the WZC service from XP. I am not at SP3, but rather SP2 for most of the machines. I'm using PEAP (MSCHAPv2) and it works well in the SP2 environment. I did notice some issues running WZC on Vista with the new Intel N cards and early release drivers, but I didn't get a chance to try the updated versions to see if it would solve the problem. I'm running the Funk OAS radius server and the Microsoft IAS service. The problem with XP and WZC is the lack of EAP types supported. I lucked out because PEAP MSCHAPv2 is natively supported. I'm 99.9 percent positive that WZC under XP does not support LEAP and EAP-FAST since they are Cisco. So, unfortunately in order to get those clients going with WPA Enterprise security you're going to have to install the client card utility or have them run a different EAP type config.

Secured wireless network and open internet...

I own a camp ground and have people using my internet and I found out last week that could see in my laptops because I have a network and share files with all my computers. I am using a Wireless G router. Can I secure my network and leave the internet open to the people???? Thanks for your help....

Another possible solution to you problem is to replace your current router with a router that supports multiple wireless networks, like the WRV200.
The WRV200 allows you to setup 1 to 4 wireless networks. These networks exist on separate secure VLANs (virtual LANs). All of the networks can share the same Internet connection, but otherwise, their files are kept separated.
The router sounds expensive, but I found it at CDW for $80.

Best way to secure wireless?

I'll be getting a MacBook Pro and wireless broadband from Sky very soon and I was wondering what the best ways of securing your wireless are.I only want the people in my home to use it, not the neighbours.
Thanks

In your router be sure to turn on security using WPA2. You can add an additional level of security if the router supports it by creating a private or closed network in which only devices whose MAC addresses are included can join the network. If the router has its own built-in firewall turn it on as well if it isn't on by default. Consult the user manual for your router on how to configure these.

Set-up and secure wireless network

can you hook up my wi fi network and make it absolutely secure ? i hate astound!

Can you be a bit more specific?! Are you trying to secure your wireless network?? If yes, I would suggest running WPA2-AES as the security mode for the best possible wireless security. Which router are you using?
