This LINK should be a good reference for you. However, it only covers linksys router but the set up is basically still the same. The IP's are sure to be different from what your configuration is set to.

Getting Started with Wireless: Wireless configuration on 877W router - STUC

Just letting you know that I've already posted an identical post under "Getting Started with Wireless" but don't feel that I'm getting any attention so I made another post. Thank you.
Hi all
I have a Cisco 877W router running IOS v 12.4(15)T3. Have been trying to configure wireless to run WPA-PSK and is stuck at the final stage. Spent a lot of time configuring the router using CLI but ended up using the Web GUI interface. I was able to configure the wireless settings (I think) but failed when connecting to the router from WinXP-SP2 and was wondering if you have any suggestion for me. I've ran the following debugs on the router:
VNRouter#sho debug
DHCP server event debugging is on.
dot11:
802.1X module WPA/WPA-PSK/CCKM key management debugging is on
dot11 Syslog debugging is on
Below is the error message when connecting wirelessly
*Mar 4 18:46:25.655: *** Not encrypted dot1x packet from 001b.771a.dbad has been discarded

I've created two VLANs (and tied these two vlans to 2 separate SSID) on this router for a reason and so far has not been able to connect to any of them (SSID). I've also attached the config so you can have a look. Thanks in advance for your help.

The configuration looks fine. In most cases, the connectivity issues with WPA-PSK is due to the mismatch in PSK on the Client and the AP. Try re-entering the PSK key on both the router and the client and check if you are seeing any issues.

WTR54G Wireless/Wireless Woes

I've been having problems with my WTR54G when I am connected wireless in a hotel. It's being used as a wireless client to the hotel network with two laptops connecting wirelessly through the WTR54G. Everything works great and seamlessly (both machines have access to the Internet) with one huge problematic exception ...
The two laptops cannot see or ping each other. No Firewall software is configured. One machine is MacBook and the other is a Windows XP machine. On a wired network, they can ping each other without any issue.
By symptoms, you would expect that AP Isolation is enabled, but it is not. It's clearly disabled.
I'd like to figure out a way to make this work. Is there something that I am missing?

devildance wrote:
Under the advance wireless settings,reduce the beacon interval to 50,reduce the RTS and Fragmentation by 40 each and check if this works for you.
No effect, but I did experiment by switching the Internet connection to a wired type. Both wireless laptops can now see each other as a result. Unfortunately, I now have no Internet access when I use this mode.
I fear that the AP Isolation when using the wireless Internet may be an undocumented "feature". A few other clues such as the inability to change the wireless channel of the WTR54G, when operating with a wireless Internet connection, seem to suggest some real limitations of this device. AP Isolation may come along for the ride as that's the only way they can get it to work with a single radio.
Are my observations correct? Is this something that is simply unsupported?
Does anyone have a workaround?

Officejet Pro 8000 wireless - wireless radio not turned on?

I bought the printer a year ago and, instead of installing it wirelessly, I connected it directly to my Windows Vista 64-bit machine with via USB. I now want to convert it so it connects wirelessly to my wireless router. I went thru the re-installation / conversion (using the HP website) and during the installation it could not detect a wireless printer. I ran the Wireless Network Test report form the printer and it said the wireless radio on my printer was turned OFF and that it had to be ON in order for it to be detected. It also indicated the "Network Status" was "offline" ...not surprising. How do I turn the Wireless Radio on?

If it is an 8000 A809a then it does not have wireless. If it is an 8000 A909n it does. I'll assume it does.
Press and hold the wireless button on the front of the printer for 3 seconds to turn it on (and off).

Macbook pro can't find my 7515 on network wirelessly.

I installed the 7515 which is connected to the same network as my macbookpro via USB and it works fine when connected via cable, but computer cant locate printer on network wirelessly. I am stumped

OK, first restart your router by pulling its power plug momentarily.
Next, on the front of the printer go to Setup > WIreless > WIreless Setup Wizard. Run it.
The printer should now be connected to the Belkin. If it is not, check for firmware updates for the Belkin.
On your Mac, download and install this: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
Finally, reset the printing system:
- Go to System Preferences > Print & Scan
- Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
- Select the plus sign to re-add a printer. Select the Defualt tab on the top of the window. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.

Wireless internet not working at my house when I use my laptop (using a linksys wrt54g2 router)

I am using a laptop for wireless internet (Dell D610). I have no problem using wireless internet at my school and in other places, but at my house, I can’t browse the internet. The router at my house has a strong signal (4 or 5 bars) and when I try to connect to it, it says that I am connected, but when I open up the internet browser, I can’t get online. The router is in a room right next to mine and it is on the same floor. It is a Linksys WRT54G2 router.
When I go to the network connections folder, for the wireless network connection icon, it says “not connected, firewalled.” I can still browse the internet, though (at places other than my house).
Another thing that I want to mention- I can't connect to other routers in the neighborhood either (the ones that aren't secured). It just doesn't connect (but for the router in my house, it connects). But my roommate told me that a bunch of people have connected to this one guy's router.
What is the problem here? What can I do to make the internet work? Why would I be able to access the school's wireless internet and not the one in my house?

Whats the Wireless Settings you have set on your Router, I there might be the possibility that you have set the security mode on your Router too high thats the reason you are not getting connected to your Wireless Network. Follow the setps to change the Wireless settings on your Router and i think this might help in getting you connected to your wireless network.
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
Click on the Wireless tab
- Here select manual configuration...Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
- Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
- Set the Radio Band to Standard-20MHz and change the Standard channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
For Wireless Security : -
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key.
NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
Click on the Sub tab, Wireless MAC Filter..
Make sure the Wireless MAC Filter on your Router is Turned Off.
Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...

HP2540 can no longer be contacted wirelessly. (SOLVED)

Having installed the printer under Linux using CUPS 1.4. I used the Wireless Direct connection to connect to it via my browser and http://192.168.223.1 and set the security to off as we have no neighbours and the router too is unsecured.
The printer returned a connection address of http://192.168.2.254:9100 and the Wireless light stayed on. The printer could then be found and installed wirelessly by CUPS.
In an effort to retrace my steps and explore the possibility of a Wireless Direct connection I reset the printer with Cancel/Wireless, and now cannot connect via my LAN or by Wireless Direct. Error messages point to an authentification problem. The Cancel/Wireless/Wireless/Unplug sequence didn't work either. I can't get to the printer's set-up page to reset it. Is there any other way or do I now have a USB-only printer.
Thanks.
(Edit) Redid Cancel/Wireless, unplugged printer for 5 mins, restarted it and reprinted the EPrint connection page. Used the new security code supplied to log on to printer and reset the router connection. Established an EPrint connection directly to my Android phone too. I'll mark this SOLVED.

Download and run this utility.
Also, WEP is not secure. It can be broken with freeware in about 10 minutes. Switch to WPA or WPA2.

How do I make my wireless internet password protected?

I set up my wireless router and went to the 192.168.1.1 to set up everything. But how do I make it password protected, so unwanted people can't access my wireless internet? I did it before but can't figure it out again, haha. I went to Wireless>>>Wireless Security, which default the security mode is set to disabled. Should I enable it? If so, which one? This is my house, by the way. WPA Personal WPA Enterprise WPA2 Personal WPA2 Enterprise RADIUS WEP If this is all wrong, then where do I go to enable a password?

Yes. You should enable it. Otherwise anyone in your proximity can access your wireless LAN, your computers and your internet connection.
You should use WPA2 Personal with AES and a strong longer passphrase to get the highest security. The passphrase can be up to 63 characters long. But it kind of depends on what your wireless clients can do which you must connect. Depending on how old the computers/wireless cards are some can only do WPA, some only WEP. You should not use WEP unless absolutely necessary. WEP can be cracked within minutes. WPA and WPA2 are considered secure at this time.
Thus, kind of the preference should be from highest security down. (choices may be slightly different for your router).
WPA2 Personal AES
WPA2 Personal AES+TKIP
WPA Personal AES
WPA Personal TKIP
WEP 128bit
WEP 64bit
However, don't worry to much about the security of WPA. The differences between WPA and WPA2 are more theoretical. Just don't use WEP. Using AES+TKIP should allow WPA and WPA2 clients to connect. Some WPA clients have still difficulties with that and you may have to revert to pure WPA.
Windows XP requires an update for WPA2. Available for download from microsoft.

Mac os 10.6.8 & hp officejet pro 8500a plus (910g) stopped printing wirelessly.

hp officejet pro 8500a plus (910g) prints from mac os 10.6.8 with a usb, but stopped printing wirelessly
HP Network Configuration Page states Network Status: ready and Active Connection Type: Wireless
Wireless Network Test Report - looks A-O.K.
Turned off modem, printer and laptop & restarted modem, printer, laptop computer
Seems that the computer can't "find" the printer, maybe.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!

If you open System Preferences --> Print & Fax and click the "+" symbol at the bottom of the printer list on the side, you should get an "Add Printer" dialog window to pop open. Is your printer visible in that window?
If not, try printing a configuration report from the printer, to get the IP address your printer currently has. If you type that number into your web browser of choice (Safari, Firefox, etc.), does the printer's "embedded web server" page load?
If so, you could set up the printer on your Mac using the IP address in the "Add Printer" dialog. To do that, you select "IP" at the top of the window rather than "Default" (which is a discovery list), and paste the IP address into the "Address" field. If the printer is available, it should pick the model automatically.

Temporarily remove and disable all security on the router. Now try to connect to your unsecured SSID. Are you successful? If yes, go back and add WPA2-AES with your password and try to connect again.

Laptop unable to 'communicate' with hp 3050a printer wirelessly

laptop unable to 'communicate' with hp 3050a printer wirelessly, could it be the virgin superhub? (been on the phone to Virgin for an hour they said not their problem) i can eprint and print using a usb cable. Printer displays 'connected' message.
OS windows 7 64 bit. Tried uninstalling etc, 11 hours on still no joy!

Hi,
Did you try HP Auto Wireless Connect?
1. Restore network defaults from the printer front panel. Wireless>Wireless Settings>Restore Network Defaults.
2. Download the printer software, http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=al-93470-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...
3. Before you run the sofware, make sure you computer is wirelessly connected to the Virgin and that the connection is a saved profile(automatically connects). You can check this in the Manage Wireless Networks section of the Windows Network and Sharing Center.
4. Run the software and select the Wireless connection option.
5. Select Yes to run HP Auto Wireless Connect.

Problem printing wirelessly with my mfc-j835dw

Hi.
I have a problem printing to my mfc-j835dw brother printer. I did not experience this issue until our broadband provider changed our modem/router to [echolife hg521] since it was crashed. I am not sure if there is a need to check for the settings of the printer or the modem/router itself. I tried to use my mobile hotspot and connect my printer to it and luckily i could print wirelessly.
Any ideas regarding this issue?
Your response are highly appreciated.

Wireless Router cuts out at the same time every day.

I'm having an issue with my WRT160N router. I'm noticing that my internet connection cuts out for about 5 minutes every day in between 5:30-7:30 pm. Without fail, every single day, I can count on it going out for about 5 minutes during this time. The desktop, which is wired, remains working during this time. I'm at my wits end here, since I'm an online student, and this is my best time to schedule quizzes and exams.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
