Verizon Westell 9100 Em router - Citrix Connection

My work requires that I make connection using Citrix. It appears that my Westell router configures the firewall each day and renders me being not able to connect to my work each morning. I have to do a hard reset each morning and only then I can connect. I tried DMZ host for my computer and that does not help. Can anyone help?.

Not sure I understand what you mean by that. The router does not make changes to the firewall configuration by itself on a daily basis.
Are you sure your computer is retaining the same IP address?
As Hubrisnxs pointed out, it's best if the computer has a static IP address, or a DHCP reservation so that it keeps the same IP address so the port forward rule points to the same place. The default DHCP lease for LAN side devices is 1 day (1440 minutes).
Can you post screen shots of your port forwarding rules before and after these supposed changes?

Verizon Westell 7501 Wireless Router

I picked up the Verizon Branded Westell 7501 Wireless router. Works great. I like the software better then any of the the major brand wireless routers. How do I use the USB port. I assume it is for sharing peripherals but I don't see anything in the firmware other then if a device is connected or not. I would like to share a printer on it if possible. Does anyone have an idea on how to do it? The documentation for it stinks.
Thanks

Hi. I am sorry you are having issues connecting your router. I will be glad to give you the instructions and make sure it works for you.
To connect other Wireless devices to your wireless router, you will need to know your Verizon Router's network name (SSID) and Encryption key or pass phrase (WEP Key).
FYI: The SSID appears on the bottom of your Verizon Router. The label starts with SN and then the number.    The Encryption key or pass phrase is an alphanumeric set of characters found on the bottom of your Verizon router. The label starts with "WEP" followed by the number.
Refer to the user manual of the device you are trying to connect.   You will just need to go into the section that explains how you access the Wifi on the device.
When you do that, it will ask you for the SSID and the WEP pass phrase.   Put that information in and continue.
Next, make sure the Wireless LED on the front of your Verizon Router is now solid or flashing green. This may take several sections. After that, you are connected.
Please let me know if this works for you! Let me know if you have any additional questions.
Thanks!

FIOS Westell 9100 EM router connection with Mac

I have 3 Macs, two of which run the latest OS, 10.5, the other runs 10.4. The oldest machine always connects flawlessly to the router, while the two newer ones often take repeated attempts to connect after I wake them from sleep, with "Invalid Password" or "Connection Timeout" appearing on the screen. Sometimes, the newer machines do connect right away, other times it takes five or six attempts. The settings seem to be the same on the newer machines as on the 10.4 Mac. Can't figure out why this is so. Any thoughts?

I have a very similar problem. I have an imac and a macbook pro. Both frequently lose internet connection after coming from sleep mode. Often I have to restart my computers in order to restore internet connection. I am on my second westell 911 router and have the same problem.

Can i change /etc/hosts in verizon modem/wifi router (westell 9100) ? If yes then how ?

I need to change the hosts file on the verizon FiOS wifi modem / router. The modem is westell 9100. Can anyone tell me how can i do this ?
I tried telnet and it gave me error as follows...
C:\Windows\system32>telnet 192.168.1.1:22
Connecting To 192.168.1.1:22...Could not open connection to the host, on port 23
: Connect failed
Please suggest.

OpenDNS is the right approach here ... you can selectively block specific domains / urls.

Verizon DSL, Westell 6100 modem/router, and Airport Extreme

Useful info so you won't have to go through what I did.
Verizon ISP using the Westell 6100 modem/router & Airport Extreme.
The Westell 6100 was configured during installation as a modem and router with a direct connection to the Mac. You can actually connect Airport Extreme at this point with an ethernet connection to the Westell and it will work, but you can't do any of the sharing things (remote login, personal web sharing, etc.) To do those things the Westell needs to be in the Bridge mode. In a nutshell, you have to edit the Westell's VC configuration to establish Bridge mode, and disable its DHCP server. Then you have to set up the Airport to connect using PPPoE using the Account Name and Password from Verizon.
1. With the Westell connected directly to the Mac, access the device at 192.168.1.1.
a. Under VC Configuration the first of seven configurations should already be enabled as VPI 0, VCI 35 using PPPoE. Edit that one and change it to Bridge mode.
b. Under DHCP configuration, disable the DHCP server. You can also do this under the Private LAN Configuration page. If at the latter, do not attempt to disable the Private LAN (it won't let you anyway). Verizon tech support kept insisting I had to disable the Private LAN, which caused a great amount of anguish!
c. Before leaving 192.168.1.1 (you won't be able to access it again once the Airport is connected and configured) make sure you know your ISP account name and password. This was assigned during my setup procedure with Verizon, a random selection of letters and numbers.
2. Now hook up the Airport WAN to the Westell's ethernet port and the Mac to the Airport LAN. Fire up Airport Admin Utility.
a. Under the Internet tab, select Connect Using PPPoE.
b. Configure PPPoE using the Verizon Account Name.
c. Change password to the Verizon account password.
3. Restart and that's it.

Thank you for your post. When I moved to another home, Verizon sent me the Westell 6100 and I had been having trouble staying connected to the Internet with my Airport. Last night, I loss wireless access and the Airport status in the menu bar read "Looking for a PPPoE connection". Verizon customer support was able to get me back online, albeit with only a direct Ethernet connection between my iBook and the 6100.
I found your post and followed your instructions. Now all the iBooks in our household are back online via the Airport. Thank you very much!

As a Verizon FIOS client, can we just use Ethernet cable to connect to time capsule, or do we need their router to connect to the time capsule?

As a Verizon FIOS client, can we just use Ethernet cable to connect to time capsule or do we need the Verizon router to connect to time capsule?

The Time Capsule is indeed a wireless router with simultaneous dual band capability...and a hard drive for backup purposes. You can use that to your advantage if you configure the Time Capsule as I suggested in Bridge Mode.
The Time Capsule will provide a 802.11n 5 GHz band and a 802.11n/g/b compatible 2.4 GHz band to allow virtually any device to connect to the network.
I suppose that you could also use the "g" wireless network provided by the Verizon router as a "guest" network or something similar if you really do need another wireless network.
It might be possible to configure the Time Capsule as the main router on the network....that's a question for Verizon. But even if you might be able to do this, I'm sure it is not supported by Verizon, so you would be on your own in the event of any Internet connection difficulties on your service.
And, since the Time Capsule does not have a built in modem....you would still need to add a separate modem to the installation anyway.
That's why my suggestion is to use the Verizon device as the "modem" and let the Time Capsule provide the dual band wireless network and of course, handle the Time Machine backups.

Trouble with VPN and Verizon MI424WR router - not connecting to company intranet

I need to connect to my work intranet and via VPN. There was no problem accessing both when I had Verizon DSL. Since I switched to FIOS, I can access email via VPN but not my Company's internet and various internal company websites. I saw a previous forum with a similar problem using the Actiontec router, but wanted to make sure I tried a correct fix for my router. My router is connected via both Coax ad Ethernet to the ONT since I signed up for FIOS internet first and then added TV later. I don't know if both are active. I have a spare Linksys wireless G router I can add to the network if needed. My router firmware is 20.10.7.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks to all for the suggestions. I could not see how the VPN software was the culprit since it worked at various hotels, Panera bread ... but decided to try to uninstall and re-install the latest version. Viola, I am now working. I plan to leave the linksys router in the system since the speed is significantly faster.

Westel 7500 DSL Router/Modem: Cannot connect to PPPOE server

Westel 7500 DSL Router/Modem: Cannot connect to PPPOE server
My DSL connection periodically slows down to a crawl [less than 56kbps actual transfer rate].
When I reset my DSL Modem it takes 30 MINUTES to 4 HOURS to reconnect.
The Main status screen shows DSL connected at 1700/448 kbps.
Advanced status WAN Status shows DSL connected but PPPOE not connected.
I cannot ping the ISP router or the DNS Server.

Margin (dB) - Signal to noise margin. 6 is pretty bad possibly unusable at times, 20 is very good. You normally want 12dB or better IIRC from back in my DSL days. The higher the number, the better to a point.
Line Attenuation - Measure the amount the signal has degraded. Below 20dB is excellent, above 50 is poor, fill in the dots for anything in between.
Hmm...
#1 Did you try connecting your modem directly to the NID?
Points to: http://www.dslreports.com/faq/1317
#2 If not, please do and retest those margins and Line Attenuation.

Verizon Westell 327 Moden not capatible with new Intel AirPort card

After spending a lot of time with Verizon and Apple on the phone Verizon states that their modem/wireless is not compatible with the new Intels for a wireless connection. Apparently they have had a lot of phone calls and know what the problem is (software problem). So I've given up and was wondering if I purchased either the Airport Express or Airport Extreme and hard wired it up to my worthless Westell modem whether I could connect wirelessly that way.
iMac 20" Intel Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Welcome to Discussions, Michelle!
Check the bottom of the Westell for the model number to see if it needs a firmware update (it might not need one).
From what I can see, IF your Westell is one of the models that needs a firmware update, rather than trying to find a Mac version of the update, it would be quickest to use a windows computer to download the update and install it to the Westell. Firmware is an alteration to hardware only, and there is no interaction with software. None of the firmware update belongs on the iMac, nor on a windows computer either - after the installation to the Westell is completed the installer can be deleted from the computer.
You already know how to get the update from Dell, and it's also available from Verizon, and from Bell South as near as I can tell.
You could always demand from Verizon that they mail you a Mac-compatible firmware upgrade for the Westell (again, if it needs it) on a CD, but that might take longer than it's worth. Perhaps you could even demand a replacement wireless router that's up-to-date for Intel-based Macs.
From what I can see searching around just a bit about the issue, it appears that there can be several different issues involved in setting up the Westell with an Intel-based Mac. At least if you can determine whether yours is one that needs the firmware update or not, then you'll be that much closer to getting the iMac to work with it.

Bridging Westell 9100 EM

Does anybody have specific instructions on how to bridge the Westell 9100 EM?

The COAX LAN WIRELESS is already bridged. If you want you can just turn off the DHCP on the router and do DHCP and/or PPPOE from the other router. LAN to LAN. You do not need to use the WAN Ethernet port or the WAN COAX Port. Do not use the WAN at all on the Westell. That is what I did with my Actiontec. Keep it simple and see if it works. But if you use the COAX from the ONT and not Ethernet then there could be issues.
If you do not have TV service and use COAX on the WAN for your connection you could just disable the COAX WAN and it would just be a coax LAN port and all is bridged.

Cannot print from wireless laptop with ultra line 9100 em router

I am having the same problem with the new router unable to print from a wireless connected laptop only I have a ultra line 9100 em router from Verizon. I am naive as to terminology and I don't know where to start to change the IP address in the printer(HP series 6110 office jet) I got no help from Verizon and HP referred me back to Verizon. Can anybody help in plain English

Does the Printer ALSO have a Wireless Connection ?
Also are you running a Software based Firewall on either the desktop with the printer or the laptop ?
I have seen instances where the Actiontec TCP/IP Range is different that the previous router and the software firewall detects this as a new network and blocks access unless you give it permission.

RG54G2 Wireless Router Internet Connection Problem

Hi,
(apologies for the long message - trying to cover all details - summary: wireless router often drops internet connection)
I recently bought an RG54G2 Wireless Router, a CB54G2 PCMCIA Wireless card and a D-Link GWL-630 PCMCIA Wireless card. In addition to two laptops connected to the wireless router WLAN, I have two PCs (one Win WP Pro SP 1 and one Win98SE) connected to the router via wired LAN. I also have a SurfBoard SB3100 Cable Modem connected to the WAN port (this connects to my ISP - Optusnet (Australia) via DHCP).
The problem I have is that the internet connection is disconnected many times a day (often every few minutes, sometimes an hour or so). I am able to reconnect by resetting the wireless router via the wireless router configuration page. When the internet is disconnected I am still able to access the computers on the LAN/WLAN (via Windows Explorer and Ping), I am also able to ping the router and the Cable Modem, but nothing outside of the cable modem.
Also, when the internet is disconnected the System Status page indicates that the router is still connected to the internet, and the Diagnostics page passes the Test Connection test, though no external pings work.
I did not have this problem when the cable modem was connected directly to the Win98SE PC (and other PCs via ICS).
I have disabled the WLAN and the problem still exists with only the wired LAN.
I have changed numerous settings in the wireless router config page with no success (eg disabling DHCP and setting each IP address, minimising LAN and WLAN speeds to 10 and 11MBps plus others).
I have upgraded the wireless router firmware to R1.0.6.0 (no change to the problem).
Searching on Google I have found several other cases of routers with unstable internet connections (none refering to the MSI routers), but none had solutions that helped my situation (most replies suggested updating the firmware).
Any suggestions of how to make the router internet connection stable?
Thanks,
Mike

maybe this is the FIX 4 wireles router internet connection problem
please let me know if any one fix the problem with this tips
thankz

Subject: SOLUTION to my router loosing connection to Windows XP
Reply | Reply to Author | Forward | Print | Individual Message | Show original | Report Abuse
I am happy to report that after 8 days of constant battles, reboots, phone
calls, cable pulling, router changing, it seems that I finally have found a
combination that has had me using Verizon DSL account for over 12 hours so
far without any kind of interruptions.
Since so many of you tried giving me comments and suggestions, I felt that
it is necessary for me to post this here so that the next person will not
(hopefully) need to go through this hell as I did!
My original problem was that when after I purchased a D-Link Wireless Router
DI-624, I would get disconnected from Verizon DSL at least once every 2
hours or so. My internet access would "freeze" and then a little popup box
at the bottom right system tray would tell me that the "LAN cable has been
unplugged". After about a minute or so, my internet connection would be
back working This was NEVER happening during the 2+ years I was using my
Westell modem alone (running in router mode).
Please keep in mind: The problem I was having was not wireless related as
it was happening to the desktop computer to which the router/westell was
connected to!
During these last 8 days, I tried: one DI-624 wireless router, two Netgear
614v3 routers and two Linksys WRT54G v.2 routers. In addition, I received a
brand new Westell 2200 modem from Verizon. I also tried about four
different CAT-5 cables. Here is the final outcome:
I have the Linksys WRT54G (version 2) wireless router connected to the
Netgear Fast Ethernet FA310TX network card in Auto-Sense mode (using the
built-in XP drivers, as Netgear told me that there was never a newer
revision released). I have DISABLED the built-in 3Com Gigabit LOM (3C940)
network card (via the ASUS P4C800 Deluxe motherboard BIOS), DISABLED the
Zero Wireless Configuration service, and have put in the IP/Gateway/DNS
address numbers inside my Windows XP Network Connections | LAN setup. My
operating system is Windows XP Pro SP1 and the modem is a Westell 2200
configured as bridge only.
If my situation continues to be stable, I *might* try to go back to the 3Com
built-in card (disable any power management) and then re-enabling the Zero
Wireless Configuration services. But in reality, I am happy with the way
things are and have already spent enough time trying to get my router to
work with Verizon DSL without having it drop connections!
Now, the next step will be setting up the WIRELESS part of this. I don't
even yet have a laptop with me on the premises, but the 802.11g card that I
already have is the D-Link DWL-G650. I hope and assume that this will work
okay with the Linksys...
One thing I must say is that I never realized that how many problems other
users are having. I would have thought that since 802.11x has been around
in the mainstream by now 2+ years, that things would have been much more
"system friendlier". And again, my issues were not even WIRELESS related.
All 3 tech supports were not really helpful, as none of them realized that
the problem is somehow between the router and Windows XP (Ethernet card?)
loosing a connection, which of course results in Verizon DSL loosing the
connection also.
One other comment about the Netgear 614 v.3 router: A number of people have
responded to tell me that they have had this random "router resetting"
happen to them (where the routers behaves as if someone turned the power off
and then back on, and the lights flash) just as if you first turn it on). I
was lucky to witness it myself during one of the "disconnects" that I had.
This was actually the reason why I went back to try the Linksys one more
time. So, I would definitely recommend staying way from this 614 (version
3) model.
Once again - THANK YOU everyone!

Using WRT610N router with Westell 327W modem/router on Centurytel

I have DSL with Centurytel and have a Westell 327W modem/router installed. Can I install and use a WRT610N router with this setup to get a faster wireless connection?

Both the wireless router can work together...You need to cascade both the router.

Verizon Westell Versalink Modem?

I am buying a new imac intel duo core 2 20 inch. Can i just plug into my Verizon Westell Versalink Modem and go? Will it automaticley detect my connection? Thanks

Verizon's DSL is a mixed bag. Sometimes the software which comes with it works great. Sometimes you have to get on the phone with them and wait up to two hours to get ahold of a Mac technician as they don't leave a certain setting on right in the modem. You should at least find out from Verizon if you have a PPPoE connection and what are the default username and password in case the software that comes with it does not install properly, as well as the Domain Nameserver and Nameserver addresses. Then you can put those settings yourself in Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Network.

Airport and Verizon Westell 7500

I run Windows Vista and have a verizon westell 7500. I can begin initial setup with airport express. During the setup I choose connect to current wireless network. Once I do this, I loose wireless connection and then have to delete connection with laptop and create a new one. Any thoughts?
A-

I'm trying the setup now, It says "are you sure you want to switch wireless networks? setting up this airport wireless device requires switching wireless networks, switching wireless networks may interrupt your connection to the internet"
When I did this yesterday, it seems the airport express changed my settings computer internet connection
