Wifi is not routing to WAN, running Vista

Hello,
My WRT160NL is not routing to the WAN on Wifi with an Vista OS notebook. When I use a wired Ehternet it works fine. The wifi connection to the router works fine: I get an IP adres and can see the other LAN computers. With another notebook the Wifi,
running XP works fine.
The router is brand new and all settings are default.
My firmware is the latest version.
Many many thanks in advance.

You can access the Internet when you connect the computer directly to the modem.
Connect the modem to the Internet port and computer to the Ethernet port on the router.
Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait for 30 seconds. Power cycle the router and reconfigure it.
Follow this link to configure your router with DSL Internet Service.

WRT120N wireless nodes not routed to WAN, Multicast not working

Hi. Since a few weeks, I am experiencing strange and very annoying problems with my WRT120N. I have a DSL connection at home and the router connects to that via PPPoE. The LAN consists of one wired node and several wireless nodes. I have a G/N mixed setup because I also have G-only nodes (older laptop, mobile phone).
Every few minutes, my wireless nodes are not routed to the WAN anymore. Weird thing is: they can still connect to the wired node on the LAN so bridging seems to work fine. They can also connect to the router itself and the router says it is connected to the WAN. I can confirm this WAN connection because the wired node is being routed to the internet all the time. Restarting the router solves the problem. Actually, even if just disabling/enabling the wireless connection on my nodes solves it. However after a few minutes, sometimes seconds, routing stops working again (It happened twice during the writing of this email).
Another thing that is really bugging me is that multicast seems to get filtered. After a few minutes, no multicast message is being sent to the wireless nodes. Multicast packets sent by the wireless nodes do arrive at the wired node but any answer is being filtered on the router.
I have changed pretty much every possible setting that could be connected to the issue but no improvement (e.g. filtering multicast in the firewall). I used to be on 1.0.0.4 and hoped that upgrading to 1.0.0.5 would help but it didn't. I also checked this forum for solutions but found none that is working for me. This way, the router is pretty much useless for wireless clients as after an arbitrary but pretty short time interval they can only connect to the LAN and no Multicast service discovery/media streaming is possible. I really need help on these issues.

Hi Brickmonkey,
thanks a lot for your answer. I did the changes you advised. In fact, here's in detail what I did:
Router reset as described.
Changed the following configuration options:
PPPoE + Credentials
Local IP
MAC-IP Bindings for DHCP
Time Zone
DynDNS
Wireless Mode -> Mixed
SSID
Channel Width -> Auto
Wireless Security -> Enabled
Encryption AES
Passphrase
Port Forwarding for SSH,HTTPS
Router Password
Changed the options beacon interval, RTS threshold, fragmentation threshold and MTU as advised.
Router power cycled.
Routing and multicast are running since 5 minutes. Let's see if it lasts.
Answering your question: I do have one wired machine directly connected to the internal switch at the WRT120N. That's the one the ports are forwarded to. It has a static IP outside the DHCP range and is actually my DHCP,DNS etc server - however DHCP is disabled at the moment. All my other machines are wireless clients with G or N connectivity.
Can you explain the reason behind your proposed configuration changes?

Premier elements 13 will not install, thinks I run Vista when I actually have Windows 7

Help?

The last window where you have to click the install button, bottom right, was greyed out. An error message said the install wouldn't run as it said I was running Vista.
I'm using Windows 7 Service Pack 1.
However, I did a restart on my laptop and clicked set up. Everything was fine. Premier Elements installed without a hitch. By this time it was nearly midnight and I forgot to go back in here and say so.
Thanks, Jeff.

WRE54G Range extender not recognized on laptop running Vista

I have just set up a home wireless network using the WRT54GL and the WRE54G range extender. The main computer (WindowsXP) is wired and a desktop (also XP) is getting 100% signal through the WRE54G. A third computer (laptop running on Vista) works fine on wireless running off WRT54GL but is not recognizing the range extender and getting insufficient signal in other parts of the house including the room where the 2nd desktop is getting 100%. The WRE54G is not showing up on the network map of the laptop. Can anyone help me trouble shoot? I need step by step instructions - I don't know a lot of the internet/network lingo but am pretty computer literate. Thanks

If one computer is already working fine with the wireless range extender .... you need to check the wireless settings on the vista Laptop ....
Make sure that the adapter is workiong fine ....
Also try uninstalling & reinstalling the wireless adapter .....

TC not routes to WAN side the website 89.97.132.131

The IP address 89.97.132.131 (corresponding to URL "www.pubblica.istruzione.it") is not available from the LAN side of TC (10.0.0.0). Same things for the POP3 mail server "pop.istruzione.it".
This address is well achievable from the WAN side of the TC router or from LAN side of all other routers.
I can surely exclude any PC, Internet Provider, ADSL modem, Op.System, Firewall, etc. problems. TC is updated to the last firmware available (7.3.2).
Ping is answering only if you use the numeric IP Address, no answer using the mnemonic URL.
I think that the TC router routes the network class "89.97.132.0" erroneously to LAN side instead of to be routed to the WAN side.
If the TC router is working as bridge, it work fine and the URL is reachable.
I contacted APPLE support and I am still waiting for answer.
Someone get similar problems ?

IPhone shows connected to network, but no wifi icon, not Router or DNS listed

Hi. Just purchased an iPhone 4g for my daughter. Am trying to connect to our home wifi network. My phone works fine, shows I'm connected, shows IP, Subnet Mask, router, DNS. The new phone shows it's connected in settings / Wifi Networks (check mark) but them there is only the IP address and Subnet Mask listed, no DNS or Router. Have tried rebooting, forgetting network and starting over, turning wifi on and off, turning airplane setting on and off.
What is going on? Husband had similar issues with iPod touch, but can remember how he resolved it. All of our Mac laptops can connect to the home wifi network.
Thanks in advance for any insights!

Same problem here and I can't find a solution either.

Computers running Vista won't open PDF files with Adobe Reader

I have tried downloading the latest version and nothing helps. The error message says it was incorrectly encrypted or something along those lines. I have forwarded the file to my home computer and ith opens fine, but not on the boss's computer or his wife's. They are both running Vista, as is my home computer. The other computers in the office are older and are running XP. I hav eno problems with any of them opening PDF files.

Yep you need Adobe Reader for Intel. Actually you don't even need that. You could use Preview to view .pdf's but I always use Reader. Don't really know why

ITunes not working properly with HP running Vista home premier

My Ipod touch works fine on my windows XP pro system but does not sync photos and podcasts from my other computer at home: new HP Multimedia system running Vista Home Premier. It goes through all the motions but will only add a few photos from a file and they are partially corrupt. Many times it won't add any selected photos. Same with podcasts, they won't sync to the ipod. Have tried various USB ports.

well, it is easy. i just wish it to sync in a manner that i do not get frustrated with it. it just does not like to sync when i open up itunes on desktop to update apps when they have updates. i have got to revert to plugging in the phone and ipad for it to sync and update apps. if you read through the whole thing you would have found it out. all i am saying is that itunes 10.6.1 and ios 5.1 have bugs and issues that make it hard for a iphone and ipad user to sync and update apps. itunes is slow to open with windows 7 as well as i did not mention that before but i have mentioned it in my other forum posts.
summary:
itunes 10.6.1, is slow to open on windows 7,
syncing ipad and iphone does not update without plugging them in.
wifi sync is not working properly or as it should, it doesn't recognize phone and ipad unless plugged in.

Hoping for some help with a very frustrating issue!
I have been syncing calendar and contacts on my iPhone 5 and Outlook 2007 using iCloud 2.1.3 (my PC is running Vista). All was well until the events I entered on the phone were showing up in Outlook, but not the other way around. I’ve tried the usual recommended steps: deselecting calendar and contacts in the iCloud control panel and then re-selecting, signing out of the panel and back in, and repairing the Outlook installation in control panel. I even uninstalled iCloud on the PC and downloaded it again (same version).
The furthest I’ve gotten is step 2 (and once, step 3) of 7 while performing “Outlook Setup For iCloud.” At that point I get, “Your setup couldn’t be started because of an unexpected error.” After the first attempt at all this, all my calendar events disappeared from Outlook, although they are still in iCloud calendar and on my phone.
Sound familiar? Any ideas on how to solve this iCloud/Outlook issue? Thanks much in advance!

Hello, Jdragone.
Thanks for the question. Start with completely uninstalling iTunes and all of it's components in the order specified in the article below. Once this is done, download and install iTunes.

Save and quit feature not working on FF4. Always worked in Firefox 3.6.Running Vista home premium

When I close firefox 4 the option to save the open tabs is not offered. Only choice is to cancel or close tabs. Running vista home premium. Only extensions are adblocl plus and image zoom

You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get back the previous session. 
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page.
Another possibility is to use:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
You can set the warn prefs on the about:config page to true via the right-click context menu or toggle with a double left-click.
* browser.showQuitWarning, see http://blog.zpao.com/post/3174360617/about-that-quit-dialog

* browser.warnOnQuit , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnQuit
* browser.warnOnRestart , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnRestart
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.

Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected.

Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static IP, Subnet, Router and DNS manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected. Using Airport for router, latest firmware, no problems with Iphone 4 or Macbook Pro or any other internet devices. After total Restore (factory settings) tried again, showed connected to router, but does not display "check" next to router but little rotating icon even though the wifi range signal shows connected at full strength and it says it is connected. Just can't seem to get it to generate an IP. Any solutions other than turning it on and off again? Not a Merry Christmas morning.

Ok, so, a couple of things: Denisefromwaleska and I have the exact same size/type/color iPod. Now wishing I'd bought the black one maybe...
Second, Airport is an Express and I have a second one that I carry with me when I travel. Tried to connect my Airport Express to the internet and could not although the iPod did recognize the router and tried to connect to the internet for some time, unlike my previous problem. Updated firmware on my travel router, still could not connect to the internet. Going to try to set up a manual Static IP on the travel router here in a few and conect through it although I predict the problem will persist. Back on the Christmas Present Airport Express router, it is back in play and working fine for all devices save the iPod.
Thanks again for all your help, hopefully I can get a solution in place soon,

The problem would seem to be in the firewall in your router. Have you tried disabling it? I assume you've updated the router firmware, right? Consider bypassing the ISP provided router (using it as a modem only) and unsing another device such as an Aiport Express.

Unable to print to office jet pro 8600 over wifi from a laptop running vista, basic home edition

Have a new officejet 8600 pro and am able to print via wifi from laptop running windows 7 and hp touchpad running webos, so all is working fine. However, I am unable to print via wifi from a laptop running Vista Home Basic, 32 bit OS. I can see the printer from the laptop, but when trying to connect to it, receive the error message "Unsuccessful Network Installation, the printer was unable to be installed over the network".
Have downloaded drivers from HP, turned off laptop firewall to ensure no blocking and still no luck. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks.
