                                                                            1,2  I did all settings, then clicked "connect", but response was: "Can not get an IP address from PPPoE server". And control light on router: "Internet", is not shining. (I have plugged cable in )
                                                                            1,3 I use PPPoE option. Not Automatic DHCP.... because I have to somewhere write provider's Login, Password.
 2,  2nd link - Clone IP MAC address. I did, but in status tab, was all three lines: 0.0.0.0, so numbers weren't generated. Powercycling not helped. "Internet" diode still not shining.

  • Trouble with WRT-54G

    I have a new WRT-54G wireless router. I am on DSL. I had another wireless box and it went bad so I purchased the Linksys. Since I have hooked it up my lap top will not recieved data. It shows that it is connected but when I try to bring up Internet Explorer it says page cant be displayed. I have checked my connections but I cant figure it out. I have a main computer hooked on my Westel router and it works fine. Can some one give me an idea what's wrong. I thought if it was connected it should be getting the data.

    Check the connection from computer directly connected to Router using Ethernet cable.
    If it is working try opening set up page using http://192.168.1.1  ….. You will see username & password …leave username blank & in password use admin.
    Click on wireless tab ….. Change SSID to any non-linksys name ….click save settings.
    Click on wireless security sub-tab….change security level from disable to either WEP or WPA. Click save settings.

  • WRT-54G with a rouge's gallery of users

    I have an older revision 4 of the WRT-54G that I use as a hotspot/switch/router/etc. which it manages to handle suprisingly well.
    My internet connection is so fast it saturates the wireless users. On the wire I can get faster speeds as G maxes out at 54 Mbits.
    The problem is the box does not show up with Windows clients as a residential gateway client in the network list, for XP x86 and XP x64 clients or others.
    I have X, Vista, Win 2K, Linux, Apple all connected to the box, making it earn its keep big time.
    All Windows clients have the network services added. So at leat that is supposted to be all that's needed.
    The box is set up as 192.168.7.1 so dodge some morons who run a web server on 192.186.1.1 and make it hard to connect to the device.
    All the web services are manually forwarded  to the Linux box which acts as the internet applicance. Everyone else is DHCP.
    The web appliance works fine, I can connect from anywhere to up the page.
    Just wanted to have the residential gateway entry avalable.
    http://contract-developer.dyndns.biz

    The WRT54G is configures for DHCP but the Linux box has a static address for the port forwarding to operate. The other machines use DHCP as there are no other port forwardings.
    The Linux box has DHCP but it is disabled. Instead I have several services running such as Apache2, FTP and so on.
    The Linux box and the main Windows box are both wired to the box with CAT 5. There is another Windows machine on wireles, along with an Apple Touch and a Apple notebook.
    The DHCP comes from the WRT54G all computers have a single connection to the box as the central network router.

  • Trouble with a Linkysys Wireless-N Router WRT-160W After a black out

    So like the subject says I am having trouble with the router. Last night there was a major storm in my town and the power and cable were out for hours. When it came back (it was only for about twenty minutes) the network was there but I was not able to connect to it from any of my computers. The desktop however that was hardlined to it works fine on the internet. I've tried restarting the modem the computers, and the router, pushing the reset buttons, even holding the reset button to the point it made the router act like its being used for the first time and creating a new network but I still can't connect to it. I only bot this router a couple of months ago so I'd hate to have to buy a new one.
    Any help would be appreciate.
    Thanks.

    Are you using Cable connection or DSL connection ?
    If you are using cable connection then follow this link and if you are using DSL connection then follow this link to configure your router. This should fix the issue for you.

  • WRT-54G connection issues?

    So, I have this WRT-54G that I got from a freind a while ago.  It has worked pretty well mostly.  Previous to this week, every once in a while (once a week maybe?) it would disconnect from all of the computers in the house, and not let us reconnect.  Opening the "Wireless Networks Available" screen would show my router, with 5 bars of connectivity, but when I would double click it, it would think for a few seconds and then say it couldn't connect.  Once in a while, it WOULD connect, and I would be able to get online just long enough to open an email or two, and then it would disconnect again.  Anyway, usually waiting a couple hours, or overnight, and it would magically be working again in the morning.
    Now, this week, it's in a constant state of that "showing 5 bars, but won't connect, except sometimes, when it disconnects me almost immediately."  I've moved it from the other room, to where it's sitting 2 feet away from my computer, so range/interference shouldn't be an issue.
    Does anyone have any idea **bleep** is going on here?  Why would I be able to see the router on the network, with 5 bars, but not be able to connect to it?  (yes I have the right wpa password and all that)  Is my router just borked and I need a new one? Is there some setting somewhere that says "Don't be lame."?
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    First of all, please wire a computer to your router.  Do not connect any computers wirelessly.  Does this wired connection work properly?    If not, DO NOT proceed with the suggestions listed below.  We will need to get your wired connection working properly first, then fix the wireless problem.  Report back with the problems that you are having with the wired connection.
    Assuming that your wired connection works properly, then proceed with the following:
    There are many causes for poor wireless connections, and many solutions:
    First of all, give your network a unique SSID. Do not use "linksys". If you are using "linksys" you may be trying to connect to your neighbor's router. Also set "SSID Broadcast" to "enabled". This will help your computer find and lock on to your router's signal.
    Poor wireless connections are often caused by radio interference from other 2.4 GHz devices. This includes wireless phones, wireless baby monitors, microwave ovens, wireless mice and keyboards, wireless speakers, and your neighbor's wireless network. In rare cases, Bluetooth devices can interfere. Even some 5+ GHz phones also use the 2.4 Ghz band. Unplug these devices, and see if that corrects your problem.
    In your router, try a different channel. There are 11 channels in the 2.4 GHz band. Usually channel 1, 6, or 11 works best. Check out your neighbors, and see what channel they are using. Because the channels overlap one another, try to stay at least +5 or -5 channels from your strongest neighbors. For example, if you have a strong neighbor on channel 9, try any channel 1 through 4.
    Also, try to locate the router about 4 to 6 feet above the floor, in an open area. Do not locate it behind your monitor or near other computer equipment or speakers. The antenna should be vertical.
    Also, in the computer, go to your wireless software, and go to "Preferred Networks" (sometimes called "Profiles" ). There are probably a few networks listed. Delete any network named "linksys". Also delete any network that you do not recognize, or that you no longer use.  Delete your current network (this will remove any old settings.)   Reboot computer.  Return to "Preferred Networks" and re-enter your network info (SSID, encryption (if any), and key (if any) ). Then select your current network and make it your default network, and set it to automatic login. You may need to go to "settings" to do this, or you may need to right click on your network and select "Properties" or "settings".  Reboot computer.  You should connect automatically.  If not, temporarily turn off your computer's software firewall.
    If the above does not fix your problem, download and install the latest driver for your wireless card.
    Some users have reported improved wireless performance by switching to WPA encryption.
    If you continue to have problems, try the following:
    For wireless g routers, try setting the "Transmission Rate" to 54 Mbps.
    If you still have trouble, download and install the latest firmware for your router. After a firmware upgrade, you must reset the router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch. If you saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.
    Hope this helps.

  • WRT-54G and Other WiFi Routers Install Possible Solution!

    The live chat turned out to be VERY helpful.
    One thing I discovered was that trying to install on Win Vista wasn't working BECAUSE IE7.0 was crashing the firmware upgrade. While I thought that I had done that yesterday, it turned out that it hadn't. Instead, I tried to enter the firmware page (192.168.1.1) using Mozilla Firefox and found that it hadn't installed correctly. I couldn't even reach the page with IE7 but instead kept getting the "Page Not Found" error, even using WinXP as the operating system.
    I'm NOT sure the WRT-54G will work when I try to install it tomorrow at a clients home, but I've gotten a lot further along using the Mozilla browser than the IE7 browser.
    If you keep spinning your wheels and can't get the bloddy thing to work, I would suggest installing Mozilla first, setting it as your default browser (you may want to keep it that way), THEN trying to install firmware updates and reinstall the router.
    Hope this helps.
    Best Wishes

    "watching outbound connections through Little
    Snitch"
    Interrupted connections under some circumstances
    after applying the AirPort Extreme 2007-001 update:
    This is (often) soluble by disabling any third-party
    wireless signal monitoring or sniffing utilities.
    I don't think Little Snitch was causing any problems, for me at least. It did let me see that it was trying to talk to the other machine's non-active IP address, which is what led me to turning off the other network ports.
    It's quite informative to see which TCP and UDP ports are being actively used, and where they're going.

  • I have a Cisco/Linksys WRT-54G wireless router and 2 Airport Extremes (the small ones that plug directly into the wall). Is it possible to extend the network from the router using these two AEs? I have a DVD player and Ext HD plugged into the router too..

    I have a Cisco/Linksys WRT-54G wireless router and 2 Airport Extremes (the small ones that plug directly into the wall). Is it possible to extend the network from the router using these two AEs? I have a DVD player and Ext HD plugged into the router too. Any ideas? I'm guessing the only way is to do what I've seen in these community pages which states that it can be done but it will drop the bandwidth by 50%. Thoughts?? Thanks!

    The Cisco/Linksys WRT-54G was one of the very few routers said to be compatible with Apple's implementation of WDS (Wireless Distribution System) settings.
    The info that I have on file indicates that only the WRT-54G versions 4 and under were compatible, so that would be one bridge to cross.
    Even if you find that your Cisco/Linksys might be the right version, Apple never published instructions on how to configure the Express devices with other manufactures, so users were left to their own devices to try to figure out how to get things working. Apple's instructions to connect to other Apple devices are in the link below:
    WDS network
    If you were hoping to use 2 Express devices in this type of configuration...even if it works...the bandwidth penalties will be extremely severe.
    The first Express drops the bandwidth (and speed) on the entire network in half and the second halves everything again. So, the result, in effect would be a "g" wireless network running at 25% speed. Few users would consider installing this type of network.
    At this point, it becomes one of those things where the fact that you might be able to do something does not mean that there would be much value in doing so. But, it is your decision to decide if you want to try to proceed.

  • Westell 7500 modem bridged to Linksys WRT-54g connectivity issue

    Hello,
    I have been trying to bridge my Westell VersaLink 7500 to my Linksys WRT-54g V8.0 flashed with dd-wrt.
    1. I started by hard resetting both the router and modem
    2. Disabled the walled garden.

    8. Default Gateway is 192.168.254.1 as is DHCP Server and DNS Server.
    Can someone tell me what is wrong and/or why this is not working and how to fix it.

    Changing the Westell VersaLink 7500 to Bridge Mode
    n order to use third-party routers with your Westell VersaLink 7500 gateway, you must first change your VersaLink gateway to Bridge mode.
    Note: The setup screens may vary slightly from the ones included below, depending on when you purchased your VersaLink gateway and the firmware running on it.
    To change your Westell VersaLink 7500 gateway to Bridge mode:
    Log in to the Westell VersaLink 7500 gateway by entering http://192.168.1.1 in your browser’s address bar.
    When prompted, enter your gateway's user name and password. [Show Me]
    Note: The default User Name is admin and password is password.
    From the main menu, click My Network.

    Select Bridge from the Protocol drop-down menu.
    Select routed bridge in the Bridge Mode field. [Show Me] 
    Click OK to confirm you want to reset your modem. The Westell gateway will now reset itself.
    Turning wireless off
    Once the modem resets, the main page will display. If the main page doesn't display, clickMain.
    Note: When configuring the Westell VersaLink 327W or 7500 to bridge mode, the wireless settings must be disabled.  Once the device is configured to bridge mode, you may then re-enable wireless.
    Click Wireless Settings. [Show Me]
    Click Basic Security Settings in the left navigation panel. [Show Me]
    Turn off Wireless by selecting Off.
    Scroll to the bottom of the window and click Apply.
    Click OK when the warning displays that your wireless access will be interrupted. [Show Me]
    Changing the LAN settings

  • WRT-54G Problems

    OK, I had a wired PC hooked up along with a wireless laptop all working great for over a year then I had to unplug some cables and when I turned everything back on I lost all connection. 
    The cable modem works fine if I plug it directly to the PC but I get nothing going through the router.  I tried pinging it but get nothing.  The power light flashes.
    HELP................

    I have experienced a similar problem a couple of times in the past month - usually after a power outage.  I'm able to log into the router, run traceroute diagnostics ok,  but the router doesn't seem to allow any wan access from the lan side.  No internet restriction, etc.  My ISP's router is fine, and issues my Linksys router a DHCP address ok.  If I plug a PC directly into the ISP router, everything's fine.  Have tried unplugging everything and cold starting (first ISP router, then Linksys) - nothing.  My WRT-54g is a v2.2 - firmware 4.21.1  I mainly have it there as a wireless access point, and to allow a DMZ on the network between the two routers.
    The only thing thing that works is to reset to factory defaults.  From there, the only things I change are password, MAC filter on wireless,  SSID,  and wireless channel.  It's starting to get annoying - any help is appreciated.

  • WRT 54GS SET-UP DUAL ROUTERS

    My situation is not one that I can handle and could use some help in getting it to work.
    My internet connection(Modem) is in my office(rear of apartment) where I have three computers, but only two at any given time that are needed for connections to the internet. This is where I have my first WRT 54GS set-up and plugged in. I am also using a wall connect extender to relay my to my second WRT 54GS, which is in my living room where I have a Smart TV and my XBox connected to it(the router) through another extender. My extenders are Netgear. Now this works as long as I keep switching the common connection back and forth in the office from the router to the extender oir the modem to the extender.
    My question is simply this...Is there a way I can run this all without haveing to switch the ethernet cable each time I want to use my XBox or the Smart TV in the living Room along with my office computers?
    I am NOT even sure I have this set-up correctly, but I do get it working the way that I have it right now so any help would be greatly appreciatied and welcomed.......I am not a network geek, but I do know a bit about computers.

    [ 481.799166] hub 3-1:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 3
    Searching on the web, most results I found lead to this page, where it is said that the problem is due to badly tuned overcurrent protection, and advocated that unplugging and switching off the computer for a little while gets things back into normal. This does not really work for me; the problem seems to occur more randomly, unfortunately with high probability (my camera is available after less than one boot out of ten).
    I tried to ensure that the ehci-hcd module is loaded at boot with the ignore-oc option (with a file in /etc/module-load.d/), to no avail.
    I also wrote a script which alternatively removes and reloads the ehci-pci driver until my device is found in lsusb. It is sometimes helpful, but usually not. And even when my device is found that way, it can only be used for a while before disappearing again.
    Anyway, such a hack is unacceptable... So, my questions are:
    is it indeed related to overcurrent protection ?
    is there anything else I can try ?
    should I file somewhere an other of the numerous bug reports about "unable to enumerate USB device" already existing ?
    If of any importance, I am running linux 3.15.7, because at the time I installed my system, I couldn't get the hybrid graphic card Intel/AMD working under 3.16.

    Hello Sue,
    I have an iPad 3, iPad Mini and iPhone 5S and they are all sluggish on capitalisation using shift keys. I hope that Apple will solve the problem because it is driving me crazy.
    I find using a Microsoft Surface and Windows 8 phone, which I also have, work as well as all the ios devices before the ios 7 upgrade.
    It has something to do with the length of time that you need to hold the shift key down. The shift key needs to be held longer than the letter key for the capitalisation to work. For some reason, this is a major change in the way we have learnt to touch type on computers. I am having to relearn how to type!
