Using old Sky router as Access Point

Hello, I am new to the forum so I hope have posted correctly. Having recently moved house I have switched to BT from Sky and have been supplied with the HH5 and the Infinity package. Due to house lay out wifi signal is not great throughout. I am wanting to use my old Sky (Sagem 2504n, I think) router as an access point. Is this possible or would need to flash the old sky router in order to do this. My first attempt did not work (when I try to set ip in sky router to within HH range I get an error message). Basically it would be good to know if I need to flash the firmware or if it is possible to do with the sky router as is before I aware too much more time.. Any help much appreciated!
Thanks
Solved!

You should be able to use it as a wired access point provided you change the IP address, and disable DHCP.
This guide, for a Voyager router, should give you some idea of the settings to use.

can I use this as a wireless access point for my network

umm... use what?
A Time Capsule? Sure. It's just like many other wireless base stations. It can run in either bridge or route mode - in bridge mode it's just like an access point linking the wired and wireless networks together.

Using Mac mini as an access point for home network

Hi
I'm looking for some help on using my mac mini as an access point on my home network.
I have a G5 tower which is wired in to my router and acts as a home server. It has all my itunes library, films, etc
I stream these to various machines in the house, one of which is a mac mini in our living room.
The mini is connected to the network via powerline adapters meaning the airport is left free.
So i set up internet sharing on the mini via airport so I can use the machine as an access point for the living room.
If I connect another machine to the mini via airport, Internet is working fine but for some reason I can't see the any other machines on the network.
All I see in the sidebar is the mini, not the server.
I've tried it on both mine and my friends macbook but had no luck.
Am I doing this the wrong way?
How would you go about doing this?
Cheers

Internet Sharing may not be providing an address via DHCP, It also may not be providing a subnet Mask that can get you to communicate with the other computers on your local Network.
Take a look at what IP addresses are being used by the various computers on the network. I would expect you have a Router that may be using 192.168.0.1 as its base "private" address, and issuing DHCP Addresses in that range and higher with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, meaning anything with the same three high octets can communicate freely without Router intervention.
But what addresses are bing used for the Wireless Shared computer(s)? and what subnet mask?

Help with using the WRT54G as an Access Point

Ever since I've been using the WRT54G as an access point behind another router I have been experiencing intermittent disconnects and reconnects from the internet anywhere from once every 5 to 60 minutes. I get the message notifcation that the Local Area Network is disconnected for a split second before everything reconnects and works fine. This has been happening on my desktop which is wired directly to the WRT54G which itself is wired directly to the other router, but I have also experienced these disconnects with my iPhone and laptops which have been using the wireless signal.
When I was connected directly to the original router I hadn't experienced any of these problems. I've also tried changing settings and even disabling the wireless broadcast of the WRT54G but to no avail. I can't figure out what the issue is, but it seems to also be affecting the wireless broadcast of the original router.
I've updated firmware for the Linksys, and I've done a reset for the Linksys as well.
Any help would be much appreciated to get rid of these disconnects.

OK, so I've tried a different setting to see if it'll work.
Previously I had not configured the WAN of the Linksys router at all and left it on Auto (DHCP) even though I disabled the DHCP for the LAN. I've now set the WAN up to a random Static IP and hopefully this will solve the problem, but I'm not sure as of yet, if anyone could look over the settings to see if they're correct please let me know.
Router 1- (Router)
WAN - Configured to ISP
LAN - DHCP
IP: 192.168.1.1
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
IP Range: 192.168.1.100 - 192.168.1.150
Router 2 - Linksys (AP)
WAN - Static IP
IP: 64.XXX.XXX.1 (made up value)
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 64.XXX.XXX.254 (made up value)
DNS: XX.XXX.XXX.X (made up value)
LAN - DHCP disabled
IP: 192.168.1.2
Subnet: 255.255.255.252
The WRT54G was a bit of a pain in terms of what Static IP and Gateway values they would accept, so I had to randomly put in values until I found something that worked. So far no disconnects, but it's only been half an hour. I can't seem to access the admin page for my Linksys router at 192.168.1.2 anymore though.

Router and access point

Likely either or. Of course if you "need" wireless you have to have an AP somewhere and many of them are capable of serving up DHCP and doing many functions of a small broadband thingy (I won't call these things "routers", "thingy" seems more appropriate) :)

which one i should use a router or access point to create a home network lab where i can play around with the DNS and DHCP configuration without changing the ISP router setting??

Use WRT110 as a wireless access point to connect desktop computer to a WRT160N network.

I am having a problem setting my WRT110 connected to a desktop computer, as an access point to a net broadcast by a WRT160N. The WRT connects to the desktop computer, but does not see the WRT169N network. A laptop with 802.11g sitting next to the desktop is able to link to the WRT160N network, although the signal is weak, but workable. Has anyone any ideas on how to use the WRT110 as as access point rather than a router. I spoke with CISCO technician level 2, and he says it can't be done. CISCO website for WRT110 describes it as three devices in one, one being a wireless access point. CISCO technician says get a WAP, but I think I should be able to use the WRT110. Help appreciated.

Linksys Wireless Routers (WRT...) are simple access points. They don't establish a connection to any other wireless device. They only allow wireless access for clients. That's the definition for an access point: to be a point of access into the LAN for clients. It is a common misconception that a "wireless access point" would always include bridging or repeating capabilities although that is a completely different mode of operation.
What you want is not an access point but a wireless repeater (WRE) or a wireless bridge (WET) or a combination. The Linksys WAPs are versatile wireless devices which can be operated as access point, repeater, and bridge.

Is it possible to use an E90 as an access point?

Since the E90 has a WIFI card, I was wondering if it was possible to use an E90 as an access point. The reasoning is that I want to be able to use a wifi only device (such as an Apple touch) to connect through the E90 to get to the internet.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can't find my Airplay - using Airport Express as an Access Point

Hi,
i've a slight problem with my airport express. i build a network with an easybox 803 router as base and an airport express as an access point in the next room. the airport led shows me that is all fine (green light). but i can't find the airplay service. I suspect that my macbook connects to the base and not to the access point.
now i want to know: how can i config my mac or my airport express, so that i can find the airplay service
best regards and thx for your help

Solved.
I had likely the same problem. It was solved by replacing the home router internal connections with a real switch.
Many home routers will not properly multicast the required Airplay/Bonjour multicasts. Netgear and D-Link for instance does not work, although some ASUS routers work if you turn off IGMP snooping and fiddle with the firewall, but only with some firmware, so it is very iffy.
So, in my case, I connect Internet modem <-> router <-> switch <-> access points <-> devices
Works without any problem. Also the wired devices connect to the switch.
Do not connect any Airplay devices to the router!

Aironet 1600 - A response was not received from the router or access point

Hi,
I'm trying to set up a wireless network with multiple SSID's. The new network only has CISCO products (router, switches). For the moment I'm trying to connect to 1 SSID (Windekind.Gast). the SSID is visible but when connecting devices have te folowing error message in the log:
Connection status summary
Connection started at: 2015-02-17 09:55:49-951
Profile match: Success
Pre-Association: Success
Association: Fail

Root cause:
Wireless association to "Windekind.Gast" failed
A response was not received from the router or access point.
Detailed root cause:
Wireless association to this network failed. Windows did not receive any response from the wireless router or accesspoint.
The signal is perfect (I'm only a few feet away from the AP).
To make sure there is no dhcp problem I tested the swich port in access mode for vlan 30 which supplied an IP correctly. I'm really not seeing the problem and searched the web for days now! Any help would be very much appreciated!
Below the config of the access point (done via de web interface).

Hi Rasika
thanks for the reply! 10.0.0.81 belongs to vlan 1. I changed the config as suggested but no luck.. (same problems are logged in the event viewer). the ap is connected to a switchport in trunk mode and vlan 1 is the native lan (untagged). the port also is joined to vlan 30 (and others).
Below the new config. Hope you can see an error..

Can i use ipad as a mobile access point

How to add a second router as access point and wifi signal extender

Previously I had 2 linksys routers and was able to configure them as one in separate areas of my house. I think it is called cascading. The 2nd router acted as an ethernet switch with 4 extra ports and it provided a wifi signal to areas of my house that previously had a weak signal when I used only one router.
I have since switched to an Airport Extreme as my main router. I can't seem to get the same configuration with the linksys router, it is Model E1000 and has an "N" signal. The Linksys E1000 I think is the newer model of the old WRT54G Linksys. I can't get it configured to work. I have searched high and low on the internet and can't find anything simple enough for a novice to understand. I did read something that I may have to assign a "DHCP Reservation" on the Apple Extreme. I couldn't figure that out.
Can somebody please offer some guidance on how to get this to work?
Thanks

You have two routers producing two networks with the same name, so they will show up as two networks on any type of scan by a wireless utility. This is normal.
If you had used two Linksys devices, they would probably show up as one network, not two. Linksys has a feature that allows this to occur, but this is not true of Apple devices.
As long as the wireless network name, wireless security and password match up between the two routers, the two networks will behave as if they were one. As computers change location, they will automatically connect to the wireless access point with the strongest signal.

Can I use this as a network access point?

Very interested in this as a way of playing my iTunes music through my amplifier, but as I also need a wireless access point I'm wondering if this will do both jobs.
I already have a wireless network, but after moving the router no longer have access to it from my Xbox or PC. Does anyone know if I can use the AirPort Express as an access point?
What I want to do is connect the PC and Xbox to an old switch I already have, and connect that switch to the AirPort Express, connecting both devices to my wireless network.

I am sure.
From KB 108040, AirPort Express: What is client mode?:...In client mode AirPort Express does not offer itself as a wireless access point or use its Ethernet port....
Wireless Distribution System is another way for AirPort Express to join an existing Wi-Fi network. AirPort Express uses its Ethernet port and can offer its wireless access point in WDS mode, but it requires that your other access points be AirPort Extreme and/or AirPort Express...From KB 108038, AirPort Express frequently asked questions (FAQ):
2. Question: Can AirPort Express act as a bridge?
Answer: AirPort Express can act as a bridge in three different ways:
If you have an existing wired network, it can bridge this network to wireless clients.
If it is set up as a WDS remote or relay station, it can bridge the wireless network to wired clients.
If it is set up as a WDS remote or relay station, it can bridge the wireless network to wireless clients (or "wirelessly extend" the range of the network).

Using linksys wag200g as an access point

Hi, i just bought a smart TV and been wanting to set it up to stream videos from a media server. But since my wireless modem (DIR-615) is upstairs, the signal is quite weak and the video will skip sometimes during streaming; I happen to have an old WAG200G linksys modem and been wanting to use it as an access point. So now i have WAG200G, DIR615 and a router (HG850... is this a router?) So the DIR-615 is connected thru the router using the WAN port to LAN1 on the router and linksys is connrected to from LAN4 to LAN4 at the router. Linksys has a local ip of 192.168.0.5 and the modem has a local ip of 192.168.0.1; both of them has the same subnet mask (255.255.255.0) but when i connect my laptop to 'linksys' instead of 'home' wireless network, i dont have internet what am i doing wrong? Also does an access point creates 2 wireless network but both share the same internet? or it creates 1 shared wireless network with shared internet... networking is so confusing also if it helps, here's my backup cfg:

Router and access point connection

Tried to get smart today, took and set up my network with a wrt54gs the other day and still have some headaches after finally getting things to work. but my idea was to take my old wrt54g router and place it at the other end of my house for the wii system. I took the old router and changed the setting from gateway to router and gave it a new internal ip address. Everything worked fine, all the wired and wirless computers including the wii worked great, but when I went to my computer, where I installed the easylink program, it showed I changed networks. Do the setup crap again and it can not find the router but showed the old one as the new netork and could not connect, could not get internet or anything at this computer. But every other computer throughout the house was working great and connected to the net with no problem, the only one not connecting is the only one with easylink keeping it from connecting.
So I disconnect the added router/access point and had to run setup again with easy link, once it was up again I reconnect the old router and everything was great, showed the old as an access point and all the devices on the network. So things are great until I close my lid and my computer goes into standby, when I open it up I have the same problem again, but this time I know what to do, and I find as long as I keep this computer on all is great, shut it down all others equipment still works fine all except for the one computer with easylink on it.
Any ideas on to resolve this, I know people in the forums have said for a long time you can't use the two routers the way I have them set up, but it works great, the only problem is easylink keeps screwing me up on the one computer, if I moved the program to another computer it will do the same to that one and leave this one connecting just fine. So far my experience with easylink has been horrible, the only reason it was installed was because the box said it must be installed prior to anything else. before I just plugged things in and put in the settings I needed and life went on.

Hey,
I think you can try to update the firmware of the router, to check if that stops connection dropping. To update the firmware of router try this:
Go to www.linksys.com/download and select correct model number and version number. Download the firmware and save it on your computer.
Check the file it should be firmware image file like .bin etc. If it is a compressed zip file extract it to get firmware image file.
Open setup page of router by typing http://192.168.1.1 in browser’s address bar, and typing password as "admin" and no user name.
Go to administration tab there
Go to firmware update sub-tab there
Browse for the firmware image file and click update
When update completes turn off modem & router.
After 2 minutes turn on modem and after 2 more minutes turn on router & it will definately work!!!
