Wireless repeater with WRT54G

Is it possible to configure the WRT54G as a repeater signal of the WRT120N?

No you cannot. There is no option for that in the WRT54G. What you can is connect the 2 routers with ethernet cable and set the WRT54G as the secondary router and you can still use the same wireless settings. But the WRT54G cannot be set as a stand alone device.

Wireless repeater using wrt54g and wap54g

i am having problems connecting my wrt54g and wap54g as wireless repeater. my setup is as follows: 1. wrt54g (192.168.1.10) is connected to a dsl provider modem/router (192.168.1.1) (dhcp server). With this setup i do not have any problems connecting my wired pc and laptop to the network. 2. on my 2nd floor the signal is faint thus i need to extend the wireless signal. 3. i have a wap54g (192.168.1.12) that i would like to repeat the signal of the wrt54g. 4. i tried the guide from the website but it was general thus there are some settings (recommended) that are missing. questions: 1. does the 2 wireless ap need to have the same SSID, channel and wep settings? 2. what should be the gateway for the wap54g? 192.168.1.1? 3. when using wifi, would i see 2 access point? or a single 1 and whoever is nearer? 4. does the wrt54g need to be a dhcp server? or the 192.168.1.1 can do that. 5. does my ideal setup be 2 AP and not 1 wireless router/ap and 1 ap? 6. can the wrt54g use wireless distribution mesh? 7. i cannot see my wrt54g from the firware downloads, mine is v7 and there are only v6 and v8? am from asia and this might be an asian version? any help would be appreciated.

what i did was the following: 1. enable wap54g as a wireless client to look for the main ssid. 2. copy the mac address to the option for wireless repeater. 3. i can now use the wap54g as a repeater. when i shut down everything and turn it on, i cannot again hook up. again, i have to do the steps above for the wap54g to act as a repeater. any idea on what the problem is? i am sure that what i am putting on the mac address is correct. even when i shut down and turn on all router and accesspoints. the connection seems lost.

Use Linksys WAP54G as wireless repeater with BTHom...

I have been trying all day to use an 'old' Linksys WAP54G to act as a wireless repeater, so I can do wireless internet in a far corner of our house. I presume that this has already been done successfully by one of our forum members? Anybody that can help me please and point me in the right direction? Thanks.
Solved!

Did you find a solution? Or does the 2.0 not allow additional wireless access points? Help! Have just spent lots of time and money building a home office in the garden which is essentially redundant if I can't get broadband and don't want to run a cable out to it.
Thank you so much.

Wireless Issues with WRT54G V8

For about a month now I have been having issues with staying connected wirelessly. I have updated the firmware, changed the wireless channels and such. Im not sure what the problem is. It normaly happends during the evening/night hours, but thats when Im online most of the time. My WRT54G V2.2 didnt have this problem, thats the reason why I bought the same model when the old ones WAN port died. I have my compter set to use Static IP addresses, 128Bit web encription, mac address filtering. If any one has an suggestions I would be happy to hear them. I have even considered building a directional antenna for my wireless adapter, which is a WMP54G v4.

On the web interface of the router change the beacon interval to 50 change Rts to 2304 and fragmentation threshold to 2304.

Cannot establish wireless connection with WRT54G after power-off

My WRT54G (firmware v7.00.0) is connected to cable TV modem and
usually the wireless connection works fine, but after swiching off and later
on the power to WRT54G a laptop cannot establish WiFi connection to internet.
I can see in Odyssey software (for wireless communication) that my laptop
found the right network (SSID) but in status it says 'waiting for keys'.
I use WPA2 (TKIP). The laptop does not connect to internet.
When I connect it by cable (ethernet) the internet works fine, I have noticed
that by accessing the web-page utility of the router and simply clicking
save changes on wireless-settings page (without making any changes in
the settings) my laptop instantly establishes wireles connection and
everything works fine till next power swich-off.

Thanks for reply! I have my network in preffered, and the software/laptop locks on
the network (see it, says it have excellent signal strenght) and gives note
'waiting for keys' (the WPA2 encription key is in the settings - both of router and laptop client - Odyssey).
I've got firmware ver.7 so it is probably the latest.

Wireless Problems with WRT54GS Ver.4

I have 3 computers in the house on a wireless connection and one wired. Just recently all 3 wireless connections are not working properly. The computer i use has not seen any problems it's connected directly to the router through a network cable. Without changing any of the settings on either the computers or the router they will not connect to the internet. They are all 3 connected tot he network but I am unable to connect to the internet on them, or create an internet connection.

it internet add is not all 0's. The problem isn't with the wired connection. it's with all the wireless connections. I configured the connections to begin with and never had any problems outside of low signal strengh with any of the 3 connections. but just recently i can not connect to the internet on any wireless connection. None of the settings on the router or computers have changed since this problem has occured. I'm using the latest firmware. I've reset the router and still no change in the situation. all 3 computers using wireless connect to the network fine but when i try to setup an internet connection it doesn't add it into the "network connections" folder. I'll click "setup" under "connections" inside internet settings in IE, and click "connect to the internet" , "set up connection manually", "connect to a broadband connections that is always on" and "finish" uasually this is where the internet connection pops up in the "network connections" folder but nothing happens...?

Can't use my HP Deskjet F4580 Wireless Printer with the AirPort Extreme Base. The printer is NOT connected at the USB port of the AirPort Extreme, and is placed in another room. It worked just fine with my previous router (Linksys WRT54G). Help me!

Hey Guys!
I just got my AirPort Extreme Base, but I can't use my HP Deskjet F4580 wireless printer with it.
The printer is not connected to the AirPort Extreme's USB port. It is placed in another room, and I'd like to use it (the printer) wirelessly (not connected to the USB port os the AirPort Extreme), as I used to. There is no place for the printer close the AirPort Extreme. It worked just fine with my previous wireless router (Linksys WRT54G). I'm very disappointed with the AirPort Extreme Base Station because of that!...
Can you help me? Please?!
Thanks Folks!

This must be a tough one, no suggestions at all.

Unable to access wireless connection with linksys rooter WRT54GS

Hi,
I just installed a wireless rooter Linksys WRT54GS on my connection, The problem I have is being able to access it with my wireless on my laptop.
I kept getting a message stating "connection unindentified" "access limited". I've done most of what is already suggested on your forum such has turning the power off of my rooter, my modem and such and still nothing. I'm able to access the wireless with my girlfriend Mac Notebook, my playstation 3 and my desktop computer which uses Windows X. First I thought that it my be a problem with my security but even when the connection is unprotected I still get that error. I try to disable the IpV6but that didn'tdo anything either.
My laptop is a Toshiba Qosmio X300 PQX32C-033019 with Vista and my rooter is a Linksys WRT54GS vers. 6
Here's my connection log, sorry if it's in French:

I have a WRT54G Wireless modem with firmware version 1.02...

I have a WRT54G Wireless modem with firmware version 1.02.1 Mar 4 2003. i down loaded the latest firmware for the modem but i can't install it. I get the erroe message"incorrect image file".
What is wrong?

Which version of the WRT54G do you have? If it is not clearly stated on the router, go to Wikipedia.org and search for WRT54G, then you can use your router's serial number to determine which version of the router you own.
The version of the router is important. Each version has a different set of hardware in it, so each version takes a different firmware.
You can only load the firmware that corresponds to your model and version.

Having issues with WRT54GS router acquiring network address after wireless connection.

I've been experiencing problems acquiring a network address after making a wireless connection with the WRT54GS wireless router. I have a Comcast cable modem connected to the internet port of the router and after configuring the SSID and the 64 bit WEP key, I can connect to my router's SSID, but since I can't get an IP address, never connect to the Internet. I've already cloned the laptop's mac address to no avail. Even after configuring a static IP address, subnet mask and default gateway, still cannot connect. I can Ping and Traceroute from the router but not the PC. I can ping localhost and host IP address from the laptop but not the default gateway. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, SJ

Connect the computer to the router with the Ethernet cable.
Try to access the internet when you connect the computer to the router with the Ethernet cable.
Open the setup page of the router and go to Status page. Check the Internet IP address on the status page of the router.
If you are able to access the Internet with the Wired connection to the router then try to create a new wireless network on your router.
Open the setup page of the router and go to Wireless tab. Change the wireless network name SSID and change the channel to 11. Save the settings. Go to Wireless security sub tab and check the wireless security settings. Click on Wireless MAC filter sub tab and make sure that it is disabled. Click on Advanced wireless settings sub tab. Change the Beacon Interval to 75, RTS and fragmentation threshold to 2304. Save the settings.
Try to connect to the new wireless network and see if that works.
How many wired and wireless computers do you have in the network?

Repeater with Linksys for US.Robotics wireless modem

Hi everyone
I want to repeat my us.robotics wireless signal with linksys repeater.Can Ä± do this with linksys. This occur any problem? Which product Ä± must choose for linksys repeater?
thanks

have you followed the instructions:-
Reverse Telnet from the PC to the modem.
Use a terminal emulation program on the PC, such as HyperTerminal, and access the PC modem through the COM port you connected to in step 1. Once you connect to the PC modem through the COM port, you need to apply the initialization string (see step 4). For an example, refer to the Example HyperTerminal Session section of Configuring Client Modems to Work with Cisco Access Servers.
Type this initialization string which writes the desired initialization string settings to NVRAM:
AT&FS0=1&C1&D2&H0&R1&B1&M4&K0&N6&W
Note: The 0s in this string are zeroes. See the Miscellaneous section of this document for information about initialization strings.
Note: You should receive an OK response from the modem. If the modem does not respond, verify that the modem hardware and cabling function correctly.
Enter this initialization string in order to disable Echo and result codes:

Change DIP switches 4 and 8 to down and keep the rest as up. Then power cycle the modem.
Unplug the rolled RJ-45 cable from the RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter of the PC and attach it to the console port of the ASA.

Hardware/Software Compatibility Question With Wireless Repeater

Hey Discussions,
This is a simple question that's more along the lines of a hardware issue. I havea wireless connection in my building that I need to boost so I will be able to have a stronger and faster connection. From what I've gathered in my newbie networking skills, I'll need a wireless repeater to accomplish this task.
I need two things from the masses:
A suggestion for a wireless repeater (preferably one that's universal, as I don't know anything about the router that is supplying the Internet...don't ask.)
And a simple way to set this up so it will be able to work with both my Mac mini and a laptop running Windows XP.
Sound easy enough, yet I can't figure anything out. Any help will be appreciated!

You're heading down a slippery slope. Be careful.
Frist, define why you think you need to boost the signal.
When you're connected, how many 'bars' do you have on your AirPort signal strength meter? If that's low, then fair enough, otherwise something else is going on and a repeater might not help.
For example, your connection could be slow because there are many people using the wireless network (the wireless bandwidth is shared between all wireless clients.
It could also be slow because your upstream link (from the base station to the rest of the network) is saturated
It could also be slow if the server you're using is overloaded (especially if you're using a proxy server that's proxying all your web traffic since that would affect all sites, not just one).
If you have a good signal then a repeater (e.g. WDS) is going to degrade performance, not increase it, so it's important to determine the cause before you try to implement a 'fix'.
