Trouble connecting Cisco router with cable modem for Internet purposes

So I am requesting help from the Cisco community on this issue as the cable company states there equipment is working fine. At all my facilities I have a guest Internet service setup through a local Internet provide to provide Internet services to the residents and guests. I have the cable modem usually a Motorola SBG6580 or a SMC 8014 (both provided by cable company) connected to my router on a FE or GE interface. I am using static IPs and using the cable modem just as a modem (bridge mode). Over the past several months these connections have just stopped working. I have not made any drastic changes to my router configs; however, the cable company has updated the firmware on these modems. I am wondering if that could affected how the modem and router talk. I was told by the cable company that the modem sees the Cisco router but that the port is inactive. My router shows the port is active and traffic passing. Does anyone have any ideas that could point where the problem lies? I will post a basic config to one that currently does not work. I am using a VRF to route a certain group out, using NAT. Please let me know if I need to post additional info. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Let me know if you need anything else. I need to figure this out and I just don't get it because the other site wasn't working a few days ago and all of a sudden it is working again but others are still not.

Setup 1941 router with cable modem and 2 vlan?

hello everyone,
i need a little help setting up my new 1941 router with cable modem using 2 vlns.
this is what i have:
1- 1941 router configured as g0/0 wan port facing isp configured as (dhcp). g0/1 is lan facing the switch (192.168.1.1)
dhcp pool (192.168.1.x)
2- sg300-28pp switch.
3- wap371 AP/ 11pcs..
now everything is working perfect except sometimes we have more than 250 to 300 people trying to connect to the wifi, the router will have no enough ip addresses.
i heard that i can setup 2 vlans to solve this problem? and is there any setup that i have to do on switch and Access points?
please i will appreciate any little help
Regards

hello Andre Neethling i added network 192.168.0.0 255.255.254.0 to dhcp pool config and it seems that it is working but i am concern that i am going to have problem in the future so please take a look at the running config and let me know if i have everything done right. also we want to order static ip address from the provider for our security camera system and we will not longer receive dhcp ip from them and my router setup is to receive it as dhcp on g0/0 so what i should do about changing the settings on g0/0?
i appreciate your help

Best Router with DSL Modem for use with AT&T DSL and Airport Express?

I recently had my old 2WIRE from AT&T DSL service die, so purchased a new 2WIRE 2701HG-B. My old 2WIRE worked with my Airport Express, which is hooked up to my DVR for DirecTV use. The new 2WIRE apparently is not compatible with the Airport Express, so I returned it and purchased a NetGear Wireless-N 300 Router with DSL modem. While this one does work with the Airport Express setup, it runs very slow. This router has mediocre reviews, so I'd like to find a better one.
I'd appreciate any suggestions for a Router w Modem that would work best with my AT&T DSL and Airport Express (802.11n) within the $100 - $150 price range. Thanks!

Configure the Express as a bridge: Connect via "Ethernet", and set Connection Sharing to "off (bridge mode)".
The switches ought not to be a problem, and I don't know why your router froze. The Express is simply another wired client, just like a computer might be.
do I turn off DHCP on the router,
No. Something has to provide routing functions so leave the Linksys alone.

Connecting Wireless Router to Cable Modem /USB

Good evening,
I have searched and searched, and can't find an answer!
My cable modem is hooked up to my PC by a USB plug. On the install of the Wireless WRT54GS, it says to unplug the ethernet from the modem and plug it into the router. I don't have an ethernet , just the USB, and there is no USB on the router. Is there an adapter that fits over the USB to convert it to an ethernet plug? I am lost.....
Any help would be appreciated.
Annie

I have same initial problem and in addition, how to connect using the Linksys WRT54G router, a home network consisting of a pc desktop and 2 MacBooks wirelessly and an HP laptop by wire. I think the answer to the USB problem is to uninstall the USB and reconnect using Ethernet. Possibly with assistance from your ISP? Anybody out there got any ideas?

Having trouble setting up router with verizon modem

im trying to set up my linksys router wrt54gs with my verizon dsl modemr. im having a hard time.

Try these steps :
Access the setup page of the router by launching an
Browser and type on the address bar, 192.168.1.1 and press enter. When
it prompts for the username and password, leave the username field
empty and provide password as "admin" (Without quotes)
click on ok.
On the main setup page the ""Internet Connection Type"" should be
on ""Obtain IP Automatically - DHCP “. Click on the Save Settings
button.
Now click on the sub tab ""MAC address clone"".
- Click on enable
Click Clone & click save settings
Check WAN Ip on Status page of router ....
If getting Valid Ip .... try going online
If you are getting Ip - 192.168.1.X ...change the LAN Ip to 192.168.2.1 ....Power cycle for 3-4 minutes ...
Try going online
If still not working ...use Internet Connection type as PPPOE .... Use Username & Password provided by Service Provider ....
Click save settings....
Look for WAN IP address again under status page ....
Hope it works for you....

The connection between your access point, router, or cable modem and Internet is broken

When I turn on my computer, this problem came out as the title. I don't know why, but it can not connect to the Internet. The Internet is OK, my another computer could connect it. Anyone can solve the problem? Thank you very much!

Hi,
Try to reset the TCP/IP stack go to this article and either click on "Fix it for me" or follow the instructions to fix it yourself:
How to reset TCP/IP by using the NetShell utility
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/299357
Also you could try to reset winsock to check if it helps.
To do this, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, and in Start Search, type cmd.
2. Right-click the cmd entry that appears in the search results, and then click ‘Run as administrator’. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.
3. At the command prompt, type the following, and then press ENTER:
netsh winsock reset
Then, you should see the following message:
Successfully reset the Winsock Catalog. You must restart the computer in order to complete the reset.
Restart the computer and check if it works fine.

Airport tmcpsle 2tb as network with cellular modem for internet

Just purchased an Airport Timcapsule 2TB to use with iMac. I only have 4G internet access with an AT&T Unite hotspot. The want to use the airport as my home network and use the AT&T Unite through the Airport through the USB connection. Is this possible?

No, you cannot use USB for modems or routers or any other device except a printer and/or hard disk.
The TC needs ethernet if you want to use it for your home network.. it can become a dumb client.. using join a wireless network. but it will not provide anything but hard disk access to the network.. albeit slowly.

Having Trouble getting airport to connect to new comcast cable modem

Help, I'm been at this for 2 days now. I don't know why I'm having so much trouble.   I'm trying to transfer from DSL to comcast cable modem and running into lots of problems getting everything to work.
I can't get my airport extrreme to talk to my new comcast cable modem. I've tried everything, restart the modem, restart and reset the airport. chaning out cables, ensuring the green light is at the cable connection of the modem and the airport.
I can find two issues I can't resolve. one, the 10.0.0.1 webpage for the modem/router doesn't response, pings fail to 10.0.0.1. Yet, my computer is talking to the internet nicely using an ethernet cable to this cable modem. I've talked to comcast for hours, to many different people, over Many hours, and they either say the box is working or hang up on me or transfering me to nowhere land.
The airport never goes to a green front light, and airport utility and always dispay an empty IPv4 address. I've tried everything, and can't get the airport to renew it's DHCP license.
Where am I going wrong? I've search the web, and tried the solutions I found. Is my 3 year old airport too old? or is my comcast box bad? I checked the airport firmware and I'm on the latest version.
After getting this working, I still have an OOMA to transfer over to the comcast modem. Am I kidding my self? Help please.
selina

ok, answering my own question, Turns out, there are three ways to do a hard reset on my airport extreme. Only the last method worked. The easy reset, from the Airport utility menu ( clicking the restore default setting) didn't make my airport talk to the new comcast cable modem. The second way, by pressing the reset button while power up didn't work. The harder third way, hold in the reset button and then plugging in the power cord did work. and the airport is now playing nicely with cable modem.   I wasted how many hours before reading this method in the apple support pages ? and then remember doing this trick once many years ago.
I also wasted a few hours trying to get ooma to talk on the new cable modem, and the hard reset key for OOMA to play nicely with a new modem can be complicated. This method requires it to be connected and working ( plug ooma tele into the older DSL network), hook a phone to it, dial * # * # 0 9 9, (star, pound, star,pound then 099) and saying yes.    That reset it to factory settings letting it reconfigure itself to a new modem gateway.
I still can't get into the gateway web page 10.0.0.1 to change the admin password, Don't advertise that. I get no reply to request or to pings. I think some comcast rep changed a port setting so I can't reach it. So I have an open wireless connection and unprotected.
I hate switching my network provider. Now I need to write it all down, for when I get fed up with comcast and decide to move to another provider.

Time Capsule connectivity issues with cable modem

I have Comcast internet service (coming through a Linksys CM100 modem, no router) plugged directly to a 2TB dual-band TimeCapsule. In the past this has been working, and the TimeCapsule has been providing internet access to three Macs, as well as backing them up. I also have an AirPort Extreme base station (not the dual-band one but not the 2003-era UFO-shaped one either) that has been connected to the TimeCapsule over house ethernet to provide wireless through the rest of the house. Last night my connection kept dropping out. I could connect to one wifi network and it would not work, then I would connect to the other and it would work for a while before stopping. I have disconnected everything and then replugged only the cable modem and my TimeCapsule. When ethernet is plugged directly into my iMac from the modem, I get an internet connection without issue. When I plug it into the TimeCapsule, it reports an internet connectivity error. It says it gets no IP address, and no DHCP setting that I provide it with alleviates this message.
I'd be gratful for any suggestions on how to fix this issue. I don't really want to wipe the TimeCapsule completely, as it contains our backups to last July.

Because cable modems associate and "remember" the device with which they have established a connection, they need a complete reset whenever you change the device that is immediately connected to them.
Push the reset button, If present, on your modem
Power off the modem
Pull the battery if it is easily accessible
Power off everything else on the network, order if not important
Wait at least 15 minutes
Make sure that the Ethernet cable from the modem is connected to the WAN port (circle of dots icon) on the Time Capsule
Power up the modem and let it run 2-3 minutes by itself
Power up the Time Capsule the same way
Power up each of your other devices about a minute apart
Check for proper operation the network.

The connection between your access point, router, or cable modem and the Internet is broken.

At random points throughout my laptop usage, I randomly disconnect from the internet and receive these 2 messages:
1. The connection between your access point, router, or cable modem and the Internet is broken.
2. The default gateway is not available.
It fixes the issue for a short period of time, but constantly happens. This is really starting to annoy me. I have no problems on any other internet, and other people i live with are connected with no issues to the internet. I have tried a number of solutions
online that has "worked" for others to no success such as resetting the router, fooling around with command prompt, and changing the performance settings to not drop internet when low on power. Does anyone have a solution for my technical problems?
I am running Windows 8.1 on a Lenovo ideapad that is less than a year old. I will be honest I am not a very knowledgeable person when it comes to computers, so please use simplified explanations.

Having trouble connecting Wireless Router to Network

Hey everyone, I ordered two Encore ENHWI-2AN3 wireless routers and am having trouble configuring the one I want to use as the wireless access point (other one will be used as a repeater.)
I followed the advice here
http://forums.verizon.com/t5/FiOS-Internet/Wireless-Router-Doesn-t-Work-After-35ft/m-p/206716/highli...
I disabled DHCP, and set a new IP on the local network. I disabled WiFi on the verizon router as well. When I run an ethernet cable between the two using LAN ports, and try to use WiFi I get a signal, but it doesn't go load.
I'm assuming I need to tweak something in the "internet" section of the Encore router, the main options are Dynamic or Static IP, PPPoE, PPTP and L2TP.
To clarify, I am not looking to replace the Verizon router, only use the Encore router for Wifi

Can you see the network in the Mac's wireless network list?

Accessing home mac fromwork through a router and cable modem

Hi - i'm really struggling with this - spent hours looking around net finding out how to set this up and as far as i can tell i've got it all set right - however it refuses to work.
I want to be able to access files on my home mac from work. Various ways of doing this i have read is SSH (or SFTP - Remote login) FTP Access or personal file sharing - tried them all can't get any to work so problem somewhere.
Have an NTL cable modem wired to a Netgear RP614 router which has Ip address A.A.A.A on its WAN port. It has B.B.B.1 on its LAN port. I have an airport base station acting only as a wireless access point (ie DHCP is turned off) router is allocating IP addresses - my ibook has B.B.B.3 - but have reserved this address for my iBook, ie it is as good as fixed as the router always gives my iBook this IP (using MAC address). Have port forwarded all necessary ports on the router, 22, 20, 21, 548 to B.B.B.3. Apple firewall is switched off - what am i doing wrong? I have also set the router to link to a DynDNS service to update its WAN IP everytime to my domain name i have set up.
If i try to FTP with transmit or fetch it doesnt work, if i try SFTP with fetch or transmit it doesn't work, and filesharing via connect to server doesn't work.
What am i dong wrong? How come everyone else can get this working but i can't?
cheers!!!

Right i tried my iBook connected directly to the cable modem and everything works then! Although one thing i did notice is that in the sharing windows in preferences at the bottom where it tells you how to connect to that particular service it didn't report the Ip address it reported a name - something like bcu-cu-cust36-bag-ntl.com - however when i looked this up it did resolve as the IP address reported by my network preferences.
So i'm not quite sure whats going wrong here - i'm gogin to try taking my airport base station out of the equation and hard wire my laptop to the router and see what joy there....
