WRE54G Ver.3-us Problem

It will disconnect automatically after several minutes of connection,when I tried to connect,it will give a wrong network IP which means it is not connected to the AP.I'm using TP-link AP or even tried Linksys AP but the have the same problem.Our Access Point is very visible to the extender,the distance measures about 12 mtrs to its other.

Hi!!
Please follow the instruction i have included below:
~Make sure that both of them are running on the same wireless channel.
~If already on the same channel then tried changing the channel (channel 11 or 9)
~TRy upgrading the firmware incase its not having the latest one.
I hope this would be helpful.
Have a great day
Best Regards

WRE54G Ver.3 Setup Wizard

I have lost my Setup CD for the WRE54G Ver.3 and it is not available for download on the Support and Services page (although there are Setup Wizards for Ver.1 and Ver.2).
Would you please provide access to this Wizard.

If you are unable to find the setup CD you can configure your Range Expander manually...See the link here

Cannot setup WRE54G ver. 3 expander to network

I had to reset my network this morning due to some weird glitch that caused my whole network to disappear. My router is a WRT310N. I have an SSID (broadcasting) and a password on my router. The problem is I cannot get my expander to connect to the network and it is desperately needed as our signal does not carry through the whole house.
We no longer have the CD for it - not that it worked in the first place. I had to call Linksys to get it setup properly. Can no longer call them as the warrenty is expired and we cannot afford to pay them for tech support.
Resetting the expander has not helped. Pressing the autoconfig button while the network is unsecured and the expander is right under the router gave no results (expander's link light continued to flash red/blue for several minutes and did nothing else). Hooking the expander straight to my computer and then attempting to access the expander's setup page (192.168.1.240) did nothing. Every time I try, it kicks me to a Google search. Again, resetting the expander has not helped this. I know it reset because the lights both turned blue, then the link button turned red. After several reset attempts, I still was unable to access the expander's page.
I am also extremely uneasy setting everything to a static IP. We have 4 computers and 3 - 4 XBox 360s in the house that need the internet at any given moment and from what I know of static IPs, if I do that it will only work on the system I set it up on (someone please correct me if this is wrong) and we have one kid in the house that if he cannot play his games online (God forbid) he'll throw a titanic fit and make the rest of the house miserable.
Can someone please help me? And talk me through this?

Follow the steps below to configure all the settings on WRE54G.
Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your Expander, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...
1. Connect your Expander to a computer, click on the Start button >>> Settings >>> Control Panel >>> Network Connections - Right click on the icon for Local area connection and go to properties- On the 'General' tab select 'Internet Protocol TCP/IP' and click on the Properties button- Select 'Use the following IP address'- Provide IP Address - 192.168.1.5, Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0...Click on Ok button to Save and Click on "Close" on main Properties window...
2. Now open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.240. Leave the Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...It should open your Expander set-up...
3. Once you get to the set-up page you can follow this link to change the Expander Settings...
NOTE : The link also explains to check the Wireless Settings on your Router...
4. While changing the Expander settings you have to make sure that the Wireless Settings(SSID/Network Name and WEP/WPA Key) are identical on both the devices(Router and Expander)...Also make sure to change the Expander's default IP to match your network and Gateway Address should be your Router's address...ex.Expander's IP Address : 192.168.1.240(assuming your router's default IP Address is 192.168.1.1),Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1...
5. After configuring the Expander you should disconnect it from the Computer and go into Local Area Connection TCP/IP Properties and set it back to Obtain IP Address Automatically...Disconnect the Expander from the computer and power cycle both the devices(Expander and Router) ...Your Expander should be configured...
In case if you don't get the Expander set-up just leave it connected to your computer and reset it for 30 seconds and follow Step 2, Step 3, Step 4 & Step 5...
Hope this helps.

WRE54G just creating more problems

I have a WRT54GS router in my home and I often use my Toshiba laptop in a room about 5 walls away. With just the router I get a "very low" signal and it tends to drop out a lot.
To remedy this problem someone suggested I get a range expander. So I did. And after spending over 2 hours setting it up yesterday (there are at least 6 other wireless networks in range so the setup was very complicated - the extender kept logging on to other unsecured Linksys networks) it seemed to be working ok. But the bliss only lasted about one hour.
Here's the problem:
When I turn on the laptop it tries to log on to the weak router signal instead of the extender signal. This is because it takes about 2 minutes before the extender signal is even found. When the extender is found the computer gets confused and starts to log in again - this time through the extender. But for some reason it has a VERY hard time getting a new IP address. Thus it takes almost 5 minutes before the network works again.
Questions:
1. Isn't the extender signal supposed to be there all the time? it seems like the signal only appears after a computer logs in to the network.
2. why is my computer having such a hard time obtaining an IP address from the extender? All the settings are exactly the same on the router and the extender.
3. am I crazy or is this thing just causing more problems?\

hi..first off, ensure that both , the wre54g and wrt54gs have the latest firmwares on them...
after upgrading the firmware , reset the router for 30 secs and reconfigure it....
change the ssid , channel 1 or 11, change the beacon interval - 50 , fragmentation threshold and RTS threshold - 2304 ...
if u have a wre54g v1 range expander , reset it for 20 secs and then press the autoconfig button on it..this should configure the range expander..
if u have a wre54g v2 , connect it to the computer.. assign an ip add on the comp
192.168.1.10
255.255.255.0
192.168.1.240
and try accessing http://192.168.1.240 . Keep the username blank and password as "admin".. once u logon to the ui .. make sure that the wireless settings are same as that of the router..
remove the static ip from the computer...do a power cycle....
this should configure the range expander...
and place the range expander somewhere in the midway ...

Developer 2000 ver 5 connecting problem with 10g

Is it possible to work developer 2000 ver 5 with 10g database? When I connected in Form Designer it worked after a long time But when in runtime both form and report gives network error. So, Please give a solution for developer 5 to work with oracle 10g.
Thanks & regards.
Jamil

Hi,
We use forms 6 and had the same problem and at this time upgrade to a new version is not possible; so we found two ways to handle this (Note we have form 6 to this may not work for you):
a) Compile your forms using a database 8 or 8i, and the fmx should be able to connect to a 10g database. this means a daily backup from to 10g to 8i or at least make sure you have the same db structure.
b) Perform a partial forms upgrade of procedure builder:
from the help menu on forms open "About form builder" and check the version of installed products.
Download forms 6i and upgrade only "Procedure builder" with this:
Oracle Procedure Builder V6.0.8.21.0 Build #1459 - Production
option b has been working for us, we are able to connect to a 10g database without problems.
Of course, this is a work-around, not supported by Oracle or anyone for that matter, so make sure you test it in a couple of machines before using in a production envrionment.
Regards,
Hugo.

WRE54G v.3 & WRV200 Problems

I'll make this short and sweet. I have tried everything I can think of to get these two items working together. The only way they are happy with each other is when encryption is disabled, then there is no problems.
If I enable encryption in anyway ... after a short while the WRE54G will cease to work and respond to commands and will not relay traffic. I have not played with beacon intervals and group renewal times, it's a little bit outside of my knowledge area so any advice would be appreciated.
Has anyone else run in to this problem?
As a side note, I am running the latest firmware on both units and as I said, the problem only occurs when I enable encryption.
Cheers,

WEP 64 & 128 and WPA Personal. All end the same result. The unit fails to respond. It will still show signal, but won't relay DHCP or any other traffic.
One thing I haven't done is set a static IP and connect to the WRE54G and try getting it's web interface. This would tell me if it is indeed crashed or able to respond?
Other posts suggests that my setup is correct, I have been trying to diagnose this for months with no success. I do have another WRE54G sitting here brand new; perhaps I should try that device as this one is defective? I'm really running short of options.
Thanks for the response, hopefully we'll find a solution
Cheers,

WRK54G ver 3 - FTP problems

I have a WRK54G ver 3, and I'm having problems with FTP. I can connect just fine to my ftp site, but the connection is aborted when I do a dir. I've tried both PORT and PASV modes, and both fail. I've also connected my DSL modem directly to my computer and FTP works just fine with that configuration. But if I try to go through the router, it doesn't work. I've got all other connectivity through the router (mail, http, etc), just problems with FTP.
I find no firmware updates on the linksys site. Is there any configuration options that would help me here? Thanks for any help.
Ross

The ftp site is not on my side of the router, but I did try assigning a static IP and forwarding 21. Also tried placing myself in the DMZ. Still no-go. I still can't figure out why some ftp sites work, but not the one I care about. Take away the router and go straight to the modem - everything works fine.
Other ideas?

WRE54G + WRT54G + Xbox 360 Problems

I recently plugged my WRE54g back in to try and improve the signal strength in my basement, where my xbox 360 is (router is on 2nd floor). Got the extender working, all blue lights, signal seems to be stronger. However, the xbox fails the xbox live and media tests at the IP category, so something is wrong in the IP address area. I have tried changing the router's IP to match the extender's, resulting in problems on every computer in the house, so i set it back to 192.168.1.1. Then, I tried setting the extender's IP to 192.168.1.2 (after very much difficulty, the extender setup page freezes and says it lost connection whenever I make a change, still having the problem), yet my xbox still fails the test even though the extender IP is within the range of the router. I have no idea what to try now, I have tried googling every possible combination of words to try and find help, and have gotten nowhere. So if anyone could help, please, please, do so!

"Nothing but red light of death on the extender. Is it supposed to have the same SSID, channel # and security code as the router?"
answer: yes
heres something i found for you.I hear they haven't made any expanders for the N series yet. but follow this guide i found, and you might get it to work.
First of all the computer or laptop MUST be hardwired to the router.
Second, the WRE54G MUST also be hard wired to the router.
Then, reset the WRE54G by pressing the reset button for at least 30 seconds. (You probably get a blue and red steady light....that is fine). Hopefully, if all goes right, this will allow you to now communicate with the WRE54G. (Auto Configuration is not possible).
Now to test this: Go into your start menu and click on "Run" and type in the comannd "CMD"....This will give you a DOS prompt window. Now type in "Ping 192.168.1.240" (this is the preset IP Address of the WRE54G.) At this point you will get several lines of numbers and stuff...ignore everything except at the bottom where it say's "Packets: Sent = 4, Recieved = 4, Lost = 0 0% loss>. If this is the case then you are looking good!
Now, open a web browser and type in 192.168.1.240 and wait for the Linksys page to come up from your WRE54G.....when/if this does come up then you have won the battle!
Next, and this is also VERY IMPORTANT. In the configuration of your WRE54G the SSID MUST be the same as your router!!!! Otherwise they will not communicate with each other. Also the channels should be the same. Now click on "save setting", and it this time or shortly there after you should have 2 blue lights on your WRE54G. At this time you can unplug it and place it anywhere in your house!
Please note: at the time of all this configuration my security on my router was disabled and later also on my expander.

WRE54G and WAP54G DHCP Problem

Hi,
Please can someone help me.
Current setup:-
Cisco ASA 5505 with DHCP Server enabled on the inside interface.
Linksys WAP54G cabled directly into the above interface on the Cisco ASA.
Linksys WRE54G with a wireless connection to the above access point using the same SSID and Channel.
When connecting my laptop to the linksys access point, the laptop obtains an IP address allocated from the Cisco ASA and works perfectly.
When adding the WRE range extender into the mix and connecting my laptop via the extender the laptop fails to obtain an IP address. The extender is connecting to the AP ok, it has 2 blue lights and i get a strong signal.
I have carried out packet captures on both my laptop and the inside interface of the CISCO ASA. The capture on my laptop shows DHCP discovery packets leaving my wireless interface, however, i receive no acknowledgement. when i run the same capture on the Cisco ASA i see the discovery packet hit the interface and a subsequent dhcp offer packet leave the interface, however, the offer packet does not reach the laptop when connecting via the extender.
Can anyone kindly offer any advise that doesnt involve throwing the extender in the bin!!?
Thanks

The WRE54G is connected after the WAP.
The router's IP is 10.10.10.254 and is configured to allocate DHCP addresses within this range.
The AP's management IP is 10.10.10.1 and the gateway is 10.10.10.254 (router address).
The Extender's management IP is 10.10.10.2 and the gateway is 10.10.10.254 (router address).
When connecting to the wireless network via the AP, it connects and receives an address.
When connecting to the wireless network via the extender, it connects but does not receive a DHCP address. Signal is strong and the extender shows both blue lights.

Unable to connect WRE54g ver.3-US

I have a WRE54g range expander that I am unable to connect to a non enccryted public network. My computer (windows 7) will pick up the signal of the network but when the expander is powered up, it connects to a site (unknown which one) and when running setup, the site survey fails. Also, connecting to the expander results in limited or no connectivity. I cannot connect to the public router by hard wire because it is located at a distance from the house. So my question is: how do I connect the range expander to a wireless public network when auto config does not work? Can this be done manually and how? Also, how do I select which of many available networks, will the expander connect to when site survey fails? I suspect that the expander is connecting to a network which is encrypted and not to the one that I want that is not encrypted.

Reset the range expander, connect the range expander to your computer, setup static IP and configure the settings manually. Click on the following link for detailed instructions.

WRE54G Verison 1 setup problems and conflicts accessing Router

I have been working on trying to get this range expander to work in my network for two days now. This forum has been very helpful, but I still can not get the device to work. I created a static IP address on my PC and was able to access the unit and configure it with the same SSID and channel (6) as my router. I have updated the firmware to the latest version. I am running 128 bit WEP and have configured the router and the range expander to the same encryption code. I have tried setting the IP address of the range expander to 192.168.1.240 and 192.168.1.140. My router's IP Address is set to 192.168.1.1 and the IP address range for the router is set to 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.149.
However, each time I turn on both the router and the range expander, the wireless card on my PC stops working and I get the Limited or No Connection message. What I am a doing wrong??? - this has been much harder than it needs to be!
Message Edited by swisstpa on 02-10-200712:32 PM

After three days, I finally got this device working!
So no one else has to go through the problems I encountered, here are the specific things you must do to get this working. Order of steps is VERY important!
TURN OFF ALL WEP SECURITY ON THE ROUTER BEFORE STARTING! Security settings were a big source of my problems. Security has to be turned on in a specific sequence. More on that later!
Go to Linksys.com and get the latest firmware for the router and save it to the PC you are configuring the range expander from.
When you initially begin to set up the range expander, you must turn off your router. The range expander will show up on your available wireless networks as Linksysxxxxx where the xxxxx is a random sequence of numbers and letters.
Plug in the range expander
If you have version 1 of the range expander, you will not have the convenient Ethernet cable port for initial configuration. Everything will have to be done via wireless connections.
Set your wireless card to have a static IP address of 192.168.1.200 and set the default gateway to 192.168.1.240. This can be done in Network Connections, Properties, TCP/IP properties.
Open your available networks and make sure you connect to the SSID of the range expander.
Once you are connected to the network of the range expander, open your browser and type 192.168.1.240. The setup screen for the range expander should appear.
Leave the user name blank and enter "admin" for the password (Linksys default).
UPLOAD the latest firmware to the range expander FIRST! I believe it was off of the help tab on the range expander setup screen.
Change the SSID to the same SSID used by your router.
Make sure that the communication channel on the router and the range expander are set to the same number. I used channel 6.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ALL SECURITY DISABLED AT THIS POINT!
Save your changes before exiting!
Unplug the access point.
On your PC, delete any references to your network SSID from your preferred networks list. If you were using WEP before, this can cause problems with your connection. Go to Network Conncetions, select your Wireless card, then right click on properties, click on the Wireless Networks tab at the top of the screen and then clear any references to your SSID from the preferred networks list.
Change your wireless card back to the mode of obtaining an IP address automatically. (Change back your TCP/IP settings on the preference for the wireless card.)
Plug in the router. Wait 30 seconds and plug in the access point again. You should have blue lights on the range expander and see the bottom light blinking. You are communicating with the router!
View the available networks on your PC and connect to your SSID – make sure it connects in unsecured mode.
Test browsing to make sure your connection is working.
Since the router and the range expander both have the same SSID, you can now access either the router or the range expander setup screens from your browser. TO re-enable WEP you MUST ENABLE SECURITY ON THE RANGE EXPANDER FIRST AND THEN ENABLE SECURITY ON THE ROUTER! THE ORDER THAT YOU TURN ON SECURITY IS VERY IMPORTANT! In your browser type 192.168.1.240 and enter the setup for the range expander. Enable WEP and enter your pass code to generate the setting key. Save the changes. Then unplug the range expander.
Enter 192.168.1.1 for your router and access the setup screen for the router. Enable WEP and set the encryption key on the router to match the key on the range expander, save your changes! MAKE SURE YOU WRITE DOWN THE HEXADECIMAL SECURITY CODE GENERATED BY THE SOFTWARE. You will need it in step 26.
Turn off your router. The range expander should also still be unplugged.
On your PC go to your network card preferences and remove any references to your SSID in the preferred networks listing again (see step 16).
TURN ON THE ROUTER FIRST!
Wait 30 seconds then plug in the range expander.
On your PC view available wireless networks. Select the SSID of your network. The computer will ask you to enter the Hexadecimal security code twice. Once you are done the PC should connect to the network and you should be up and running! The PC will remember the hexadecimal code for the future.
GOOD LUCK!

Wre54g ver. 3 range expander won't turn on?

I unplugged the range expander to move it to another room, (which I 've done a number of times before) but no it won't turn on. None of the lights will turn on and I've tried pressing the auto configuration button and reset button but still nothing. Anyone got any ideas?

I have the same problem as mentioned earlier. Moved the Expander and the lights wont go on. The router is working fine with other computers, is just the expender the one that doesn't work. What can I can do?
Anybody knows?
