Steam Issue with router MI424WR

hello,
So for the past year or so I have been unable to join any server due to the router getting overloaded. I have read that its a NAT issue but I have also read that it was fixed. Right now the router firmware version is 4.0.16.1.56.0.10.11.6..
Is this a problem with the router it self or is the issue still unresolved?
Any help would be great thanks,
Sean

Windows 7 Update Internet Connection Issue with Router

I updated two of four toshiba laptops with Windows 7 and installed Toshiba's wireless adapter driver for Windows 7. The adapter connects to the router and I can access all resources on my home network, however, Internet service is not available on the two laptops with the Windows 7 update. After disconnecting and reconnecting 7-10 times, the Internet Service connection does not drop. The other two laptops and two desktops that are not running Windows 7 do not have this problem. Is there any known issues with lynksys wireless routers and Windows 7?

When your Windows 7 machine is having problems, can it ping the following IP addresses:
127.0.0.1 (local loopback)
192.168.1.x - the DHCP IP address it was issued by the router
192.168.1.254 - your router
8.8.8.8 - Google DNS out on the internet

Issue with router

So I am an ex Be customer who was transfered when they were bough. I have been having issues with games very recently disconnecting and after doing a ping test saw I was getting a fair bit of packet loss. I think I have narrowed this down to the wifi from the router since over a wired connection it runs fine. It is a 5+ year old technicolor router supplied by Be so I wouldn't be surprised. Anyway running via a Cat 5 cable is impractical as the only phone socket is no where near the computer.I was going to use another router I have lying about but I can't find the settings needed for Sky anywhere? I'd appreciate some help!

Here are the settings you need.
1.. Enter the following details within the routers Graphical User Interface (GUI):
•Encapsulation: PPPoA (PPP over ATM)
•login/username: [email protected]
•Idle Timeout: 0
•Internet IP Address: Get Dynamically from ISP
•Domain Name Server (DNS) Address: Get Automatically From ISP
•NAT: Enable
•Multiplexing Method: VC-BASED
•VPI: 0
•VCI: 38

MSI Z97 U3 Plus Compatibility Issue with router WD My Net N900 Conn.Prob.noIP

I got problems with LAN connection on new mb MSI Z97 U3 Plus on which is used Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller (Realtek® 8111G Gigabit LAN controller).
I can't get IP from DHCP of the WD My Net N900 router.
I've made new fresh install Windows 7-64bit Ultimate, tried drivers on dvd which came with mb, downloaded drivers from msi web, downloaded latest drivers from realtek site, none of them helped me.
There was no conflict in device manager all drivers were fine, but when connected cable I get only ip 169.254.x.x, even when I manually added my ip 192.168.1.x I get connected localy, but no internet connection.
On same router are other pc, nb, tb, mp connected and working.
I tried even another LAN cable, but problem not resolved.
Restarted N900 router more times.
On router I got latest firmware Firmware Release 1.07.16 (5/21/2013).
But when I connected it to old Netgear router which is not conected to internet I get the ip address correctly.
I dont think that on new mb could be the LAN bad or?
Anyone have same problems compatibility with WD My Net N900 routers an Realtek PCIe Gigabit Controllers?
Can someone HELP me out with this problem PLEASE? THANKS!

It seems more like problem with router's config, rather than computer's.
When you said restarted, did you mean just off and on, or restored default settings? You might need to configure things through the router (default gateway 192.168.1.1).
Also, I don't really know these tools that are provided by WD, but why not give them a try?

Routing Issue with 3550 Switch

I am having an issue with routing with one of my Cisco 3550 switches. I know the 3550s are EoL but some of us have to work with what we have.
I am using a 3550 on either side of a Layer 2 link. The Layer 2 link is 2 Extreme Summit X-440 switches with Microwave between the switches. I have a VLAN configured on both switches and tagged on the ports connected to the Microwave. The 3550 switch on each end is configured for IP routing but I cannot pass traffic between the switches. If I unplug the switch on the local end and plug in a laptop, I can ping the switch on the remote end and access devices at the remote end.
I know this should work because I am doing the same thing over another Microwave link and Layer 2 link using another 3550 and a HP ProCurve at the remote end.
Here are the configs for each 3550:

Ideas? Anything stand out as grossly wrong? I have worked on this for 2 days and am at a loss.
Thanks
Jamey

Sorry for the delay in replying. Other items at the office took priority over this project. I tried that and no change. I pulled the switch from the remote site and took it back to the local end and connected the switches with a crossover cable and everything works fine. I have pretty much determined that it is an issue with the config in one of the Extreme switches. The config in those look pretty normal but there are a few things I am unsure of. Guess I'll see if there is a similar site for Extreme gear.
Thanks

Routing issue with ASA and UC540 phone system - at ASA???

Having an issue with routing from the PC at .242 to the CUE server at 10.1.10.1. The CUE server is built into the UC540 phone system. It is an internal piece of software that is used for voicemail and management. The UC540 is not only a call router, it is also an IOS router. It has it's own WAN connection as does the ASA.
Here are some facts:
1. Can ping the UC540's internal CUE server from the PC ( ping to 10.1.10.1 )
2. Can ping the UC540's VLAN 1 address from the PC ( ping to 10.1.10.1 )
3. The ASA is the default gateway for the PC.
4. I have a route inserted at the asa that is:
               route 10.1.10.1 255.255.255.0 10.19.250.254 1
5. I have a nat statement that prevents NAT from occuring but I don't think this is necessary as the 10.1.10.0/24 network isn't otherwise defined on the      ASA.
6. I cannot pull up a web page when I point the browser on the PC to the 10.1.10.1 address
7. I CAN pull up a web page on the PC when I create a static route on the PC iteslf :
               route add 10.1.10.1 mask 255.255.255.0 10.19.250.254
     Is is only with this route that I am able to get to the web GUI on the phone system.
8. The phone system has a loopback interface at 10.1.10.2 that serves as the gateway for the internal CUE server, the internal CUE server is at      10.1.10.1
9. The switch is a 2960 and has a trunk port to the phone system to allow for the voice vlan which is at 10.1.1.0/24, no issues with this vlan and phones      are connecting to the system fine.
Since I can get the GUI to come up when I set a static route on the PC, then I would assume that the routing in the phone system with it's internal server is fine as it wouldn't work otherwise. Since I can successfully ping the CUE server from the PC, that would lead me to believe that the ASA's routing is setup correctly..... TCP traffic doesn't seem to get to/from the CUE server.
Here are the routing tables:
ASA:
Gateway of last resort is xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to network 0.0.0.0
C    xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 255.255.255.252 is directly connected, outside

Any help appreciated!!!
Thanks!

Hello,
Where you able to solve this problem? It does sound like an issue with TCP state checking on the ASA. The Firewall needs to see both sides of the traffic but the return traffic is going from your UC540 direct to the PC. The firewall essentially kills the traffic.
I would recommend disabling TCP state checking on the ASA and see if it works. Otherwise, you will need to stub route the UC540 as a separate VLAN off the ASA which needs to route through the ASA to reach the PC.
Here is a info page on the TCP State Bypass:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/security/asa-5500-x-series-next-generation-firewalls/111986-asa-tcp-bypass-00.html
Please let me know how it works out.

Issues with second router disconnecting and reconnecting

My second wireless router keeps disconnecting... it reboots then becomes availble after a minute.
The second wireless router is a Netgear WNDR3400v2 and is connected to a Actiontec MI424WR via an ethernet wire. I changed the settings as noted in a forum post to hook up a second router... the setting changes fixed the issues with IP address conflicts that I was having. The issue is that the Netgear router keeps disconnecting. The Actiontec router never disconnects.
There are 16 devices connected to the internet.
Parts of my house don't get a signal from the Actiontec router.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions on enabling more wireless coverage throughout my house from my Actiontec router and/or how to stop the Netgear router from disconnecting. I can't find any specific information that isn't confusing.
My Actiontec router is on the main floor in a cabinet, which prevents the signal from reaching to parts of the house... there is an ethernet cable that runs from the cabinet to a room upstairs, which is where the Netgear router is located... that signal reaches most of the house.

Hi Clueless777,
Most likely if your Netgear router is randomly disconnecting but the Actiontec is not, it's going to be an issue with your settings in the router. There is a post over at http://www.dslreports.com/faq/12506 that will tell you exactly how the settings should be in both routers for this to work properly.
As to increasing the signal from the Actiontec router, a couple of things come to mind but you may have already did these things. First, make sure to change the wireless channel in the Actiontec to something like 8. Also, make sure that no cordless phones are located nearby the Actiontec router as much as you can. We mention this because many cordless phones operate in the 2.4ghz range which is the range of most WiFi routers and devices. You could also look into getting a range extender but I wouldn't recommend it because your Netgear router is essentially doing the same function without sacrificing service. Other than these suggestions, take a look at the link above and make sure your settings match. That should help you out more so than changing the channel in the Actiontec router and/or relocating cordless phones.
We hope that this helps.

Calculation of goods issue date in scheduling agreements with routes

Hello together,
i have a problem with the calculation of goods issue date in scheduling agreements when we use route, because the system ignore the days of transit.
Example:
We had customized the route 4711 with a transit time of 3 days. This route would be related to a scheduling agreement. But this setting has no influence to the calculation of the goods issue date for the schedules. The same happens with loading date and so on.
Can anyone give me a tip, which setting is additional necessary?
Regards
Andreas Walter

Hi,
check the following settings
1, Route determination Path : IMG>sales and distribution>Basic function>Routes>Route determination
2, Activate the route Determination for your sales document type in following path :IMG>sales and distribution>Basic function>Routes>Route Schedule Determination-->Schedule with route schedule for sales document type
3, Maintain Delivery scheduling and transportation scheduling in the following path:IMG>sales and distribution>Basic function>Delivery scheduling and transportation scheduling>Maintain Duration

Issue with 2wire dsl router when connecting power pc g4 via ethernet

Issue with 2wire dsl router when connecting power pc g4 via ethernet. The 2wire will keep resetting. When I connect my macbook pro via ethernet to the 2wire all is ok, but as soon as i connect the power pc. . . .reset. I have emailed 2wire support. They recommended using a different patch cable. Tried that.. .. anyone else having this issue???? Any help would be appreciated. . .

Search the discussions for issues with 2wire dsl routers. This has come up before in a discussion I've been involved with, but probably not to do with the MDD. I do remember it being a design issue with the router, something that was done to it before dispatch.
Let us know if you can't find it and we'll have a look.
If you afford it, bin the 2wire and go buy something decent like a Netgear.

Routing Issue with 3550

I am having a routing issue with a 3550 switch. I have 5 vlans and I need one of the vlans to access a different router based on destination IP rather than our edge router. I have entered a static route on the 3550 that points to the secondary router whenever a certain network is tried to be accessed. My problem is I can't seem to get the traffic to flow correctly. When I trace route an address on the Internet the path shows as expected, the 3550 then my firewall then my edge router. When I trace an address that is on the other side of the secondary router I get the 3550 as the first hop, then nothing. I can ping the address so I know the path is up. What could be the issue? Thanks in advance.

Hello,
in addition to Mahmood´s post, what do you have defined as the next hop for the default route to the secondary router ? If you use an interface on the 3550 as the next hop, make sure that whatever is connected is in the same subnet, otherwise use the IP address of the next hop. So, let´s say your remote network is 192.168.1.0, and the secondary router is connected to FastEthernet0/1, your default route should look like this if the secondary router is in the same subnet (in this example, the IP address of the secondary router would be 172.16.1.2):
interface FastEthernet0/1
no switchport
ip address 172.16.1.1 255.255.255.252
ip route 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 FastEthernet0/0
Otherwise, try:
ip route 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 172.16.1.2
where 172.16.1.2 would be the address of the secondary router.
Does that make sense ?

GNT

ISSUE With my WRT600N Wireless Router --

Hello, I am having trouble with my Wireless Router. It is the WRT600N model Linksys Router and the issue I am specifically having is my wireless access. I have several devices which access wirelessly and am starting to have more and more issues of late, not sure why...?
I was wondering how to configure each device accessing my wireless net individually as I have Network MAgic asnd have seen a couple of the items on my network with the same ip addresses. I would like to assign a number to each device and see if that eliminates the issues I have been experiencing..?
I have looked through these question pages and have not found the answer I was looking for so I hope this has not been asked before. I also saw a post that kind of caught my interest and it was regarding using two WRT600N's routers together for better range etc. I have an issue with raqnge on my system and have an old WRT54 Router and would like to know if I could do the same thing with this and incorporate this router into my system as a wireless access point (WAP) only. If this is possible, what would the steps be to accomplish this...
My main issue I chose to writer about here was recently experienced when I got an Ipad and my Ipad has issues remaining connected to my WRT600N Router and I checked my network program and noticed that it was assigned the samw IP address as one of my boys X-Boxes. I believe currently we have approximately 9-11 devices that periodically connect wirelessly to my network. Some devices are PSP's and only occassionally connect and I have NEVER seen all the devcices connect at the same time. I believe the max at once would be approximately 5-6 devices. Is this too many at once...? Is the router overloaded with the amount of devices I have connected...?
Please let me know what you would recommend for my situation,
Darius Taylor
[email protected]

2 wireless routers can not communicate wirelessly with each other.
You need to connect cable between 2 routers and use the second wireless router as access point.
Follow this link to connect Linksys router to another router.
Some of your devices are getting same IP address. This might be the issue with DHCP server of the router. You can try DHCP reservation on the router so that each device will get unique IP address.

I am having trouble connecting to my network all of a sudden. It is not an issue with the service/router. I keep getting kicked off and getting a ! in my airport... anyone know what's up with this?

I am having trouble connecting to my network all of a sudden. I am able to connect to other networks but not my own. It is not an issue with the service/router because other devices connect fine. I keep getting kicked off and getting a ! in my airport. Last time it happended I called apple and the suggested I wipe my HD and reinstall everything. I did and it did not work. One day I turned my laptop on and it connected no problem. Now it has kicked me off again. I tried resetting my IP address but that does not work either! Has anyone had this problem?

Try this:
Apple menu / System Preferences / Network.
Click Location: and select Edit Locations..
Click + (plus sign), and enter a name for the new location - anything will do.
Apply this.

Having a connection issue with the WRT54GS Wireless Router

We just recently got Broadband internet. We had issues with it at first, because the Ethernet cable included wasn't working properly, and instead, the guy got us connected via USB cable. Now, I just bought this Router yesterday, and made the mistake of unplugging the USB and plugging in the extra cable. I did everything as instructed in the Easylink Advisor program. My connection was messed up, and I could not connect at all. After calling Tech support, they reset our modem and everything (cable modem and internet-wise) is as good as new. I went out and bought a new Ethernet cable, so now I have 2 perfectly new cables, and left the USB cable plugged in, so I don't throw it off as I did yesterday. I still can't get the Port 1 light to come on. the WLAN light is on, as well as the Internet light, but no Port lights will turn on. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance! -Chris-

Are you getting online via ethernet with the modem now? Make sure your local area network is enabled. Go to control panel then network connections.

HT204409 I have a new iphone 5 and it won't connect to a wireless router that my old iphone 3GS would pick up. Is there a compatibility issue with some routers or is the antenna weaker in the new iphone 5?

I have a new iphone 5 and I can't pick up a wireless router that I could use with my old iphone 3GS. Is there an issue with the new iphone and is the antenna weaker than the 3GS?

Re: Anyone still having IOS 6 wifi issues?
created by mpa9366 in Using iPad - View the full discussion
Having done a lot of reading today and having found a very good online tablet magazine (will post link tomorrow) there seems to be a few tech bods onto the problem.
The magazine I was reading identified wifi problems within hours of the ios 6 release and have been analysing since then with almost daily updates - the story seems to be:
The apple authenthication transmission is normal, it should slip through event prior to a full handshake with the host network being completed - however if not authenthicated then apple will not permit the device to connect (kills the connection) this is designed to protect apple from counterfeiting. So thats problem 1 if you dont receive a token from apple.
Problem 2 is that ios 6 only supports ipv6 (the new ip protocol) whereas outside silicon valley a large proportion of routers modems etc are still ipv4 protocol.
So youre locked into ipv6 in a world where ipv4 devices are everywhere and apple have not allowed for the ability to handle both protocols. This is like GM telling you your car requires an upgrade, everything will improve etc and as part of the upgrade fits a fuel cell motor and stays silent when their upgraded vehicles are simply parked up because they cannot get fuel.
A very basic expectation would have been dual protocol handling - we know the HW supports ipv4 as all wad fine on ios5.
So its going to be hit and miss with networks - more hit than miss in techy areas like silicon valley, but more miss in places like where I am - a small town in rural Switzerland.
Only apple can fix this with a patch to enable ipv4 protocol handling.
There you go. you just need to buy a new router, I'm sure Apple has one for sale, cause it's not there fault for sure.
Wonder why people start to migrate to other devices ?
