Setting WAN Port Speed on RV180

We have an RV180 and can not get connected to a port on CPE equipment after setting the WAN port on the RV180 to 100/Full.
The CPE equip port is set to 100 Mb/Full Duplex.  When the port on the RV180 WAN is set to AUTO and we connect to the CPE we see a lot of CRC errors and very poor performance.  When we set the RV180 WAN Port to 100/Full we see no traffic at all. 
We have a Cisco ASA 5150 router connecting to the a different port on the same CPE and when we set its port to 100/Full we see very good performance.
We have upgraded the RV180 to the latest FW (1.0.3.10) but that didn't solve the problem.
Can anyone provide assistance with setting the WAN port to 100/Full with success?
Thank you,
John               

Hi John, incrementing CRC errors traditionally indicate a physical problem. I've not known it to indicate anything different.

  • WRVS4400N Hard Set WAN port speed and duplex???

    Does anyone know if there is a way to hard set the wan port speed and duplex on a WRVS4400N V2 router?
    Any Help greatly appreciated..
    thanks,

    Michael
    I believe that these statements are true.
    Auto negotiation is good when both sides are configured to negotiate. When one side does not negotiate the other side should not try to negotiate.

  • EA2700 WAN Port Speed

    I just bought an EA2700. The diagnostic says that the WAN port speed is 1 Gigabit. Speedtest however reveals max 85 Mbit throughput which makes me believe that is just Fast Ethernet (100 Mbit). My internet provider delivers 120 Mbit down speed and I would like to get full speed, what is wrong?

  • Setting WAN port MTU?

    I mentioned in another thread that I had been having some problems with NAT on the AEBS. I think I narrowed it down to something going on between my DSL router and the AEBS.
    I believe the DSL router needs to have an MTU of 1460 or fewer bytes per packet. Probably becuase it encapsulates TCP/IP before sending over its DSL ATM link.
    I was able to get similar broken behavior when I replaced the AEBS with a similarly configured Linksys WRT54GS and forced the MTU to 1500 in the WRT's web managment tool.
    It looks like MTU set to "auto" or 1460 or fewer bytes per packet makes the WRT54GS behave nicely with the DSL modem. Presumably, that would make the AEBS happy too... if I could find a place to set the WAN port's MTU. Anybody know how to do it?
    The DSL router is about a five year old Siemens Speedsteam connected by ATM to the telco's DSLAM. Perhaps newer DSL routers do something a little smarter with packet encapsulation, fragmentation and reassembly. Not mine, by the looks of it.
    Thanks,
    Bill

    I just waned to add, the Speedstream is taking care of the PPPOE itself. The model I have is the 5861, which is a full-blown IP router. I am getting a /27 block of IPs routed to me by my ISP.
    If not the MTU size, perhaps the AEBS is setting the DF bit (Don't Fragment) bit in the IP header, so if the Speedstream needs to fragment a big packet because it is slapping on additional encapsulation for PPPOE, it has to drop the packet from the AEBS because the packet is over 1500 bytes when encapsulated.
    The issue is only a problem when certain ports (say, 473 for instance) are NATted. Port 80 seems to be no problem. Unfortunately, there is more than basic HTML in this world.

  • WRT350n - what is the WAN port speed?

    Hello,
    Virginmedia in the UK have 50mb download capability now which I am interested in purchasing. I have been advised to check that my current router (wrt350n V2 v2.00.18 firmware) is capable of handling that speed on it's WAN port prior to signing up. It's not clear on the data sheet if the WAN port is gigabut ehternet capable, same as the 4 ethernet ports, and I wanted to ask just to be absolutely sure.
    Any help or clarification gratefully received.

    As the Router which you have its an Giga bit Wireless Router, and all the LAN port on the Back of the Router are the Giga bit LAN Ports. Your Router will work with 50mb speed, and you should be able to go online from all your Computers.

  • WAN port speed on RVS4000

    I have an RVS4000 with the following:
    Firmware Version:
    V1.3.3.5
    CPU:
    STAR 9202
    I believe it's a v1 of the RVS4000 as I've tried to put the 2.x.x firmware and I couldn't.
    My ISP upgraded me to a 100Mb/20Mb down/up plan (Quantum 100 here: https://www.highlandsfibernetwork.com/internet). However, through my RVS4000, I get the following speeds:
    Download Speed 18498 kbps (2312.3 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Upload Speed 19098 kbps (2387.3 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Latency 7 ms
    Client Time December 4, 2011 11:06 AM
    Server Time December 4, 2011 11:06 AM PST
    When I connect directly to the switch rather than through my RVS4000 I get:
    Download Speed 45818 kbps (5727.3 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Upload Speed 6240 kbps (780 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Latency 5 ms
    Client Time December 4, 2011 10:59 AM
    Server Time December 4, 2011 10:58 AM PST
    Clearly there's something wrong here, where I'm getting less than half the download speed through the RVS4000 than I do without it. From the datasheet, it states that the RVS4000's WAN port is a 10/100/1000 port, so I don't see why I should have the limitation on speed.
    Can someone help resolve this?
    Robert.

    Hello Abudef,
    I disabled IPS and verified that QOS is disabled. Now with the speed test, I get a large improvement, basically bringing me up to the speed without the RVS4000 involved:
    Download Speed 41811 kbps (5226.4 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Upload Speed 20550 kbps (2568.8 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Latency 5 ms
    Client Time December 4, 2011 07:47 PM
    Server Time December 4, 2011 07:46 PM PST
    Thank you so much for your help!

  • WRT 1900AC WAN Port Speed

    I'm using a Motorola SB6141 cable modem and it seems that since I upgraded the Linksys to the latest firmware,  1.1.8.164.461, my Cable Modem thinks it's connected to a 100Mb port rather than a 1Gb port.  (Cable modem link light is flashing amber, rather than blue)  Has anyone seen this or suggest what to do to resolve?  I was looking for a way to configure the WAN port but don't see any option to do so. I've also factory reset my modem, router, and reloaded the latest firmware, as well as swapped cables, with no change. 

    Solved it myself by doing a hardware reset and reloading the firmware.

  • MI424WR-GEN2 set WAN port to work as LAN

    Hello,
    Is there any chance to make WAN port of MI424WR-GEN2 to work as LAN?
    I have multiple devices and need one more wired port.
    Thanks a lot for your replies.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    No.  The WAN port cannot be used for LAN connectivity.
    If you need more Ethernet ports, buy an Ethernet swtich.  If 100Mbps is fast enough, 10/100 switches are quite inexpensive.  1Gbps switches can be found for decent prices as well.
    Good Luck.

  • RVS4000 WAN PORT set to 1000Mbit

    Is there a way to set the WAN Port to 1000Mbit? My Cablemodem supports up to 1000Mbit on the interface but the RVS4000 only runs at 100Mbit WAN Port speed.
    It would be great to have the same options as for the LAN ports to change sensing also on the WAN port.
    Thanks.

    Hi Gonzalo,
    The RVS4000 router can only allow one WAN IP address at a time. The RV series routers (RV042, RV082, and RV016) can allow multiple WAN IP addresses for load balancing or failovers.

  • RV320 WAN port drops connection

    I have an RV320 connected to a cable modem on the WAN port. every once in a while, less than a day but more than a few hours, the WAN port stops sending traffic. I tried Static and DHCP (im supposed to use DHCP but for testing I used static as well) for my ip address. when the issue occurs, I can fully access the router via the lan side and manage it. when I view the interface stats, its up, with an ip address. no traffic passes through it though, verified this many times and using different methods. when I renew the ip, it just hangs. when I release and renew it hangs and never gets a new ip. I have to down the interface or reboot and then it gets an ip and works fine. I've also tried autonegotiate and hard setting the port speed. the logs are no help, not indicating anything. previously I had an apple airport express hooked up to the connection and it worked fine for years. so I know the connection and cabling, etc is good. any ideas? im running the latest code. I have not tried the wan2 port to see if that works. thanks!

    I wondered that too. primary reason I left that reasoning was that my old firewall, an apple airport express, worked fine. never lost connection, ever (that I was aware of). this does it multiple times a day. I did check anyway and didn't see anything obvious. I ran a packet capture and was a bit surprised how clean it was (for the internet). my modem is in bridge modem so I see everything at the wan port. ill attach a snippet below. thank you!

  • Airport Utility: Ethernet WAN Port setting

    In Airport Utility > Internet > Internet Connection .. is a property called "Ethernet WAN Port". The default setting is "Automatic (Default)".
    When I set this property to "1000 Mbps/Full Duplex" Airport Utility throws two interesting errors:
    1) You have nothing plugged into your WAN port (But I do have my Comcast modem plugged in there)
    2) You don't have internet.
    Upon Visual inspection of the Comcast modem, my IP connection to the house is gone. Specifically the green "PC" light is off.
    Now, when I change this property back to "Automatic (Default)" my IP connection comes back again.
    Does anyone have any thoughts or advice on why this is? I should also mention one more interesting thing ...
    When downloading a 40min (1 hour TV show) from iTunes it takes 15 minutes when my Mac is direct connected to the Comcast modem and 3 hours when my Mac is connected to the AEBS. I'm trying to change the "Ethernet WAN" property to 1000 Mbps/Full Duplex to ensure smooth connection from Mac to AEBS to Comcast Modme to Internet.
    Thanks!

    Bob, thanks. Makes sense.
    Do you have a notion of why the Comcast speed is cut when AEBS is connected to it vs. when the MacBookPro is directly connected to it?
    Example: Download 1.1GB file from iTunes (Episode 1 of Lost) - a 40 minute TV show
    Test 1: MacBookPro > WiFi (802.11n) > AEBS > Comcast Modem = 3 Hours (longer than show!)
    Test 2: MacBookPro > Ethernet > AEBS > Comcast Modem = 3 Hours
    Test 3: MacBookPro > Ethernet > Gigabit Switch > AEBS > Comcast Modem = 3 Hours
    Test 4: MacBookPro > Ethernet > Comcast Modem = 15 MINUTES
    Thanks,
    Brian

  • EA6500 manually select speed and duplex for WAN port

    Is there any way (hidden settings?) to manually select speed or duplex for WAN port on EA6500? I'm using EA6500 with Genexis HRG1044 (FTTH) and the latter has known issues with upload speed when local device is connected on gigabit. It seems that both EA6500 and Genexis HRG1044 only support autonegotiation and that always results in gigabit which results in poor upload speeds over the internet. Placing 100 Mbps switch between EA6500 and Genexis HRG1044 does the trick but I was wondering if it can be done without it. BTW, my internet speed is only 100/100 Mbps anyways.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    @discoHR If you don't mind me asking, for what purpose do you want to adjust the speed on the WAN port of the EA6500? Is it to increase the upload speed? I'm just spitballing, but I don't think there's any "hidden setting" to adjust it on the EA6500. 

  • Speed limitation on Time Capsule Ethernet WAN port

    I have a Time Capsule 2TB model A1409 that is connected to a Motorola Cable Modem SBV5121 and only connects to it ("green light") when the Ethernet WAN port is set to 10 Mbps/Half Duplex (fastest speed - average 5 Mbps for download) or 10 Mbps/Full Duplex (slowest speed - average 3 Mbps for download). No other mode can get a connection "green light". Time capsule software is 7.6.1.
    Today I connected a Cisco Linksys E2500 router to the same cable modem and download speed increased to 10 Mbps which is what I am paying for my ISP. I haven't even touched the ethernet WAN port configuration. Straight forward.
    I would be grateful if someone could point out a configuration change that would allow my TC to connect as fast as this Cisco router.

    It works fine in Bridge Mode with a Thomson Integrated Modem/Router. But I don't want to use this configuration since I won't be able to use the TC's Guest Network.
    Just tried connecting with Cisco's ethernet cable but remained the same.
    Is it possible to bridge the Thomson??
    Stick a small cheapo switch between the TC and Morotola and see if that fixes it.. as I said, not all chips quite talk to each other.. even in this day and age.
    And Motorola cable modems seem to have more problems than most .. this is not new to me.

  • I am unable to set up my new Time Capsule with my BT Home Hub - every time i connect the ethernet cable from Wan port to Home Hub, the internet signal drops

    Hi there -
    I've just purchased a new Time Capsule, and would like to set up a small home network with my Laptop, iMac and wireless printer. I'm following the first steps, but as soon as I connect an ethernet cable between the WAN port of the TC and the ethernet port of the HH, my BT internet connection drops out and I have to restart the HH. Upon which point it drops out again. The airport utility can see my TC, and gets as far as me typing in the new network name and setting up a password, but then it can't quite get through to the next stage. All the time it's just flashing amber.
    Please help!

    Setup the TC in bridge mode before you cannot it to the HH.
    Simply do the setup fully in isolation. And do it by ethernet.
    Setup wireless to create a wireless network.
    You can use either same SSID =Wireless name as the HH .. same security same password.
    Or use a different name and setup.. totally up to you.
    Update the TC and then plug it into the HH by ethernet.
