WRE54G expander setting static ip address, then no internet?

I have set a static ip address on my wired computer for the expander. I can access the setup page, but not the internet. So, I went and set my computer back to " obtain ip address automatically ". Now I can access internet, but not the expander set up page. I would like to upgrade my firmware, but need internet and setup page at same time to do this.
I thought once you set up a specified ip address and added it to your gateway you could then access it anytime when you had the settings changed back to " obtain an ip address automatically " ?

Download the firmware when you have Internet Access, you may download the firmware from here , once the firmware is downloaded you can set-up static ip address on your computer and access your range expander set-up page and upgrade it's firmware...Once the upgrade is done you should reset and re-configure your range expander...
Make sure you have identical wireless settings on your Range Expander and your Wireless Router...Your Range Expander should be in the same subnet as that of your router...

Not able to set static IP address after upgrading to 8.1 from 8.0

I have a dell vostro 1014 laptop.After upgrading to 8.1 from 8.0 , i am not able to give static IP address in the Internet Protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4) Properties of my Ethernet card properties.I am getting the following error:
"COM surrogate has stopped working error"
In order to access Internet Protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4) Properties
again , i need to restart the system
after restarting my system and when i access Internet Protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4) Properties i find that ip address,subnet mask and default gateway( in the
use following IP Address field) have given has become empty.But
preferred DNS server and alternate DNS server enteries are still there.I am able to fetch IP address from the DHCP server
Does anyone knows how to troubleshoot this problem?

This problem may occur due to loss of some system files while upgrading your dell vostro 1014 laptop from 8.0.to 8.1 or unsuccessful upgrade.
Try to refresh your laptop by inserting windows 8.1 installation disc.
To do this go to control panel->recovery->refresh your system without loosing any data
If you don't have any windows 8.1 installation disc just download from Microsoft website.
Make sure to choose correct architecture of your windows installation (x86 or x64) when you download.

Set Static IP address on Mac clients

Hi,
I'm trying to change the IP address on a mac client at startup time to a different value and to be Static type. I need to do it via the command line. I've researched and found out that 'networksetup -setmanual ...' and 'ipconfig set en0 MANUAL ...' would do it, but the 'networksetup' command is not available unless I have ARD installed and 'ipconfig' is not recommended for use other than testing and debug.
Another option I was looking at is editing /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist and then doing 'changeip ...' command.
Do you know if there are any other commands that will allow me to change an ip address via the command line, set it to Static/Manual and preferably do it without a reboot?
Thank you

Hi Sergey,
when I use static IP in my jwc_properties.ini it is never picked up, it still uses DHCP. The part where I have configured IP looks like this:
# Whether static configuration or DHCP server is used do get IP address. Possible values: dhcp,static
ip.method = static
# IP address,used with static IP configuration only
ip.addr = 10.143.144.97
# Network mask,used with static IP configuration only
ip.netmask = 255.255.252.0
# Network gateway,used with static IP configuration only
ip.gateway = 10.143.144.1
# DNS server,used with static IP configuration only
ip.dns =
# MAC address
mac.addr =

How to set static IPv6 address/gateway in Arch (NOT tunnel)

Hey Everybody,
Today I decided to install Arch Linux. There was only one thing that I did not understand, and that is how to set up a static IPv6 address. I have native IPv6 connectivity at home and in Debian I used to edit /etc/network/interfaces to set up a static IPv6 adress. Since Arch uses rc.conf, what is the syntax to configure a static IPv6 address?
I used to add something like this in Debian in /etc/network/interfaces:
> iface eth0 inet6 static
> address *my static address*
> netmask 64
> gateway *my gateway address*
Or can I still use /etc/network/interfaces in Arch?
Thank you for help.

It can be done quite easily using the netcfg infrastructure.
/usr/lib/network/connections/ipv6static
#!/bin/bash
. /usr/lib/network/network
ipv6static_up() {
load_profile $1
ip -6 a a ${ADDRESS} dev ${INTERFACE}
if ! [ -z "${GATEWAY}" ]
then
ip -6 r a 2000::/3 via ${GATEWAY} dev ${INTERFACE}
fi
ipv6static_down() {
load_profile $1
ip -6 a d ${ADDRESS} dev ${INTERFACE}
if ! [ -z "${GATEWAY}" ]
then
ip -6 r d 2000::/3 via ${GATEWAY} dev ${INTERFACE}
fi
ipv6static_$1 $2
exit $?
/etc/network.d/eth0static
CONNECTION="ipv6static"
DESCRIPTION="Static configuration for IPv6"
ADDRESS="2001:dead:beef:cafe::1/64"
INTERFACE="eth0"
GATEWAY="2001:feed:dead:beef::1" # Comment this out if no route needed
I haven't tested the gateway part, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. You'll need iproute2, and to read up on netcfg (see http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Network_Profiles) if you have trouble.

PowerShell script to set VM static IP address - multiple subscriptions

Hi,
I have set successfully static IP Address to all of my virtual machines until now (1 subscription) using Set-AzureStaticVNetIP
But now I have 2 Azure subscriptions. The virtual networks names are the same at both of the suscriptions.
The question is:
How to define the subscription to use when defining static IP addresses to VMs?
Thanks in advance!

Hi SCCMadmin09,
Considering that you have successfully set static IP Address to all of your virtual machines until now for one of the subscriptions :
Login to your Azure account with the command ; this time you should be entering your second subscription login credentials.
Add-AzureAccount
Add-AzureAccount
: This will open a windows login dialog that will allow you to enter your credentials of the second subscription.
Now you need to find the name of the subscription you created your virtual machines under. The command is:
Get-AzureSubscription
The output will give the Azure subscription information
Here in the example, Visual Studio Ultimate with MSDN a/c is used. The command to select this is:
Select-AzureSubscription
: Select Azure Subscription: Enter your subscription name and then ENTER:
Eg : Visual Studio Ultimate with MSDN
At this point you are connected to your subscription and can begin to work with the virtual machines created under it.
There are two parameters you will need to have:
ServiceName
= the name of your virtual machine. Example :
DTechHST-Test01
Name
= the same name you entered as the ServiceName
And finally the commands, there are three.
Get-AzureVM -ServiceName <your_vm_name> -Name <your_vm_name>
Set-AzureStaticVNetIP -IPAddress "<your_new_ip_address>"
Update-AzureVM
Unfortunately, entering these commands one at a time fails. They must be strung together via “pipes”.
Get-AzureVM -ServiceName <your_vm_name> -Name <your_vm_name> | Set-AzureStaticVNetIP -IPAddress "<your_new_ip_address>"
| Update-AzureVM
As an example:
Get-AzureVM -ServiceName HST-Test01 -Name HST-Test01 | Set-AzureStaticVNetIP -IPAddress "192.168.224.50"
| Update-AzureVM
In the event that you need to remove an assigned IP address, use the following command structure.
Get-AzureVM -ServiceName
<your_vm_name> -Name <your_vm_name> | Remove-AzureStaticVNetIP | Update-AzureVM
Hope this helps.

Static IP address on iPhone

Hi, and happy new year!
I have a question for the community. I have just bought a Sonos music system. Every so often the controller on my iPhone loses connection with the system. I've done quite a bit of online research and the issue seems to be with how my router (at BT home hub) allocates and renews DHCP leases. I had a similar issue with my Samsung network printer which was resolved by setting it to a fixed IP address (so the router always assigns it the same IP).
I'm gonna set fixed IP addresses to the Sonos components - but think the principal issue is the IP address assigned to the iPhone as this changes when I come and go from the house. I'm talking about the iPhones IP address on my home network, not on the cellular network.
So my question is this... will setting a fixed IP address to the iPhone on the router (and on the phone) cause any issues I am not anticipating?
I know HOW to do the IP address fixing - just not sure if I SHOULD.
Thanks in advance - and if you have any other ideas for sorting the Sonos system, they'd me much appreciated.
Chris.

SUCCESS!!!!!
I visited my brother-in-law yesterday and attempted to connect with his secure network. By sheer luck, he is using the exact same model LinkSys router. My iPhone connected first time--so the iPhone was eliminated as a source of the problem.
I didn't do a lot of troubleshooting at his house, but I did notice that his network was set for both dynamic DHCP and dynamic DNS. I know that either or both of Windstream (my ISP) and my broadband modem requires a pair of static DNS addresses.
Sure enough, delving real deep into Windstream's support site, I discovered a LinkSys router DNS help page, specifying how to set static DNS addresses in LinkSys routers. I then accessed my router, enterd the known static addresses, saved the router settings, then rebooted the iPhone and connected to the network.
SUCCESS!!!
Thanks to Jane, who suggested it was an ISP issue, Jason, and all at Apple support. dumonj, I'll email you directly. Try this suggestion and see if it helps.

EA6700 - Maximum Static IP Addresses

Is there a limit on the number of Static IP Addresses on the EA6700? There are currently three open entries called Static DNS 1, 2, 3. I am using all three, and would like to add a fourth for the WAP300N Access Point. Is there a way to add a fourth Static IP Address? Thanks

Thanks for the advice. I thought I knew what I was doing by "reserving" IP addresses using the DNS entry. Now that I found and read the User Guide, I understand how to “reserve” these devices. I still need to find the Linksys valid ranges for static vs dynamic on the EA6700. I don't see this info in the user guide. Or does it matter?
Don't I just go to the DHCP Reseration Table, select the devices, and click on Add DHCP Reservation? This reserves whatever IP address was dynamically assigned to it. Currentlu on the DHCP panel, the Start IP address is 192.168.1.100, number of users is 50, so the range is 192.168.1.100 - 149. I will clear out the DNS entries. I may just reset the router and start over. If the range begins at 192.168.1.100, then I'll use 192.168.1.2-99 as static addresses and 192.168.1.100-150 for dynamic IP addresses.
Is the default Release Time of 1440 (24 hours) adequate?
Should I keep dynamic and static IP address separated in different ranges as in your example? .
We have 24 devices on our home network including laptops, desktops, printers, iPads, iPhones, NAS, etc.
I planned on setting static IP addresses for my primary desktop (where I manage the network), network printers, IP cameras, WAP300N Access Point, Seagate BlackArmor 440 NAS, Honeywell 6280 Tuxedo keypad, and Xbox 1.

Have correct info for static IP address but wifi still doesn't work

The way the internet is set up in my condo building I have to use a set static IP address. I have all of the information necessary, but it still won't connect to wifi. Has anyone had this problem?

Oh, something I should have mentioned initially that makes the case slightly interesting, The wifi works perfectly when connected to the internet via my Time Capsule, but if I turn that off and try to connect to the main router I have to be sat within two feet of the router or I lose connectivity. I don't really know much at all about internet connections and frequencies and ranges and whatnot, but am I right in saying normal internet is 'n' and the Time Capsule can also emit 'g' and 'b' or something like that? Are there two antennae in the macbook, one that picks up the normal internet and one reserved for the other types and perhaps the one that connects to normal internet is faulty in some way?

Is an 'external' static IP address required to set up DNS

Hi there
I'm going to be setting up a OSX Server 10.3 machine as an open directory master, to take advantage of single sign-on capabilities.
From what I have read in manuals and in this topic: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=977178&tstart=15 , it is necessary to configure the DNS service first. However, the topic talks about having an external IP address for the server, as well as for the internet router.
Is this the only method that will work? The network only has one external IP address as far as I am aware.
Any thoughts greatly appreciated.
Matt

The answer is, it depends.
If you want your server to provide any external services then it will need an external IP address. Now, depending on your network, you may be able to use a single IP address on your router, having it NAT incoming connections via port forwarding - that's a common setup.
The bigger issue is whether you need a static IP address or can live with a dynamic one. A static IP address is required if you're running certain services such as DNS or Mail. Other services might be able to get by with a dynamic IP, depending on what you're doing with them (for example, it's OK to run a personal web site on a dynamic IP address, but you wouldn't want to do that for a corporate web site that gets a lot of traffic.

Setting up Network Address Server Settings (Static IP)

To be abundantly clear, I do not want to change my Internet Connection Type - its dynamic and will stay that way. I'm not paying my ISP (Time Warner Cable - RoadRunner in NYC) for a static IP address.
I am changing my network address server settigns to disable DHCP, and hopefully assign static IPs to the various comps/devices in my home network. For various reasons (mostly security/ease of use) it would be handy to know my desktop/media center is always (for example) 192.168.1.101, my laptop is always 192.168.1.102, xbox is always...etc etc.
I have DHCP under network address server settings, and attempted to change TCP/IP protocol of my adapters in the comps to static IP (instead of obtain one automatically). I followed the WRT54G router manual whilst doing this. So I inputted the IP for each comp I want to use, 255.255.255.0 for a subnet mask, and the default gateway (in the example, it would be 192.168.1.1, though I want to use a different internal IP address for my network as a security precaution). Now it also wants primary and alternate DNS. TimeWarner won't tell me this information. They say they tell my router it (since its DHCP) and it changes. So...if I want static IP addresses for the devices in my network, I need my router to have a static ip address externally? that means I pay more. Or have I got it wrong? Please advise. I know I could check the router's status page and grab the two DNS servers its currently using, but then when my router's IP and DNSs change due to the internet connection being dynamic, I'd have to go change all the devices in the network (PITA!!). Thank you for your help.

Most ISPs don't actually change their DNSs only the internet IP adress... you can try grabbing those DNS 1 & 2 and set it to your PC. try checking if those will change for verification.
If not, then for primary DNS, use 192.168.1.1 (equivalent for your router so whatever the DNS your router will use, it will just route it. but it doesnt always work), for the alternate DNS: you can use 4.2.2.1 or 4.2.2.2

How to set a Static IP Address to a HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m?

Like it says up in the subject, I need to know how to do this. I tried to do it by typing in the IP of the printer into a browser, but then I lost connectivity with it all together. If someone could help, that would be amazing!!
Thanks in advance!
TechGirl88

First, let's see if your printer is actually connected to your network.
- Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address. If it is 0.0.0.0 or 169.254.x.x then the printer is not connected. You will have to re-connect it using the same method you did originally.
Now that it is connected, this is how to set a static IP:
- Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings. (if this does not work, you likely have a firewall and/or security system blocking it - please advise).
- Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
- On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. You need to set an IP address outside the range that the router automatically sets (called the DHCP range). If you know what that is, set an IP outside that range but no higher than 254 (the last number in the address). If you do not know this, enter the current IP address.
- Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
- Leave the gateway and DNS blank. Click 'Apply'
Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.

?? How to set up actiontec MI242wr rev F router to accomodate Static IP addresses, port forwarding?

I just got a new Verizon/Actiontec replacement router and I want to configure 4 or 5 static IP addresses beginning at 192.168.1.201 and above.
At this point, I have changed the DHCP range from 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.250, to 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.200, so that is now the DHCP pool. That presumably leaves anything above 192.168.1.200 open for static IP assignments.
a) So now how do I create a Static IP reservation for a device? (what router screens should I use? do the device(s) that I want a static IP have to be connected?, etc.)
b) Once I have the static IP address reserved/configured, how can I make the appropriate port forward rule(s) for the devices? Specifically, I want to allow SSH connections to each of the static IP addresses/devices.
(I tried this once but the router complained after I made the first port forwarding rule saying that it was already in use!?!? and I want to avoid this problem again).
Thanks
-J

thanks for your suggestion. I figured out what to do...I let each device receive an address by DHCP, and then in the router, I went to Advanced -> Connections, double clicked on the device to get more details and set the "Static Lease" check box.
What this does is a address reservation for the device, but still configures it via DHCP.
It would be nice if the router manual noted this small detail, that devices can be configured as having a static address 'reservation' that is administered by the DHCP service, OR, one can set a 'static IP address' by ensuring that the device address is outside of the DHCP pool.

How to set a static IP address for deskjet 6940dt

I have two HP laptops, both have WIN7, that keep losing the IP address for my 6940dt printer, each time power goes out to router. I have an desktop PC connected to a NetGear router and RCA modem connected to Comcast cable internet. I also have another desktop that connects wirelessly through the router....but this desktop never loses the printer IP address and I can't figure out why it doesn't and my laptops do.
I have had a fellow at the senior center computer club tell me that I need to set a Static IP address to make the laptops connect . I don't know how to do this and I would need someone to explain it in a language that I can understand, like real basic. I have searched the internet but the things I have found have been very complicated to understand.
Can anyone help me?

Setting up Static IP addresses

In the FAQ entry for setting up static IP addresses, it says to set the "Preferred DNS server" to: 192.168.1.1
Currently, mine is set to: 68.94.156.1
with an Alternate DNS Server of: 68.94.157.1
Now, I'm wondering, does the Prefered DNS [i]have[/i] to be 192.168.1.1 or will what I currently have work just as well? Also, am I supposed to have an Alternate DNS server, and if so, is what I currently have it set to fine? Lastly, do the DNS servers have to be different for each computer?
Any help would be great. I'm hoping to try and re-setup my router tonight.

Kind of off topic, but don't want to make a whole new thread...
Currently, my home network is very messed up. Previously, we would lose connections upwards of 4 times a day.
At first, we thought it was because our modem was getting old. So my dad bought a new modem. But when he finished hooking up the modem, we still couldn't connect to the net, so he plugged his comp directly into the modem instead.
Now, in an attempt to get things working, I have reconnected the router, modem and computers to eachother. However, there is a problem. I can't access the router's setup page from my computer anymore. The lights on the router and modem indicate that:
1. The modem is connected the net.
2. The router is connected to the modem.
3. 3 devices are plugged into the router.
Now, I have two wired comps, 1 x-box and a wirless comp. and I am using the WRT54G router. I don't understand why this computer cannot connect to the router. I know it is just this comp, because the wireless one can access the router's setup page, although it still can't connect to the net.
Could someone give me an idea as to what the problem is? The only thing I can think of is, maybe instead of running a cable from the router to the computer, I ran it from the printer to the computer (they are right next to eachother). But don't think printers even use ethernet cables.
