Wrt 300n max cat5e cord length

I am attempting to connect a pc using cat5e cord at around 225 feet and can't get a signal. All connections look good. How long of a cord can I use???

100 ft?
The box said windows xp or better... So I installed Linux!

  • Problem with Wireless settings in WRT 300N (V2)

    Greetings,
    I've just managed to reset the WRT 300N to default settings and have setup the internet conncection etc and home network ... BUT no matter how I've fiddled with the wireless settings I cannot get any of the laptops or mobile phones to connect wirelessly to the network.
    The Windows software on the laptops 'finds' the router OK but for some reason the router seems unwilling to supply an IP address.
    I've checked ALL of the settings that I can think of, and all are correct ... well, all are exactly the same as my old router which worked perfectly.
    It's something that I think muxt be to do with the security settings.
    Can anyone offer any suggestions ??
    THanks
    Solved!

    Try the following steps:
    # Open up the browser and on the address bar type 192.168.1.1 that will open up the Router setup page.
    # Then Click on wireless Tab select, Wireless Network mode “Mixed”, Radio Band to 20 MHz only and Standard Channel to 1, 3, 6, 9, and 11. Click Save Settings.
    #Adjust the following advanced wireless settings:
    ~~ Lower the beacon interval from 100 to 75
    ~~ Lower the fragmentation threshold from 2346 to 2306
    ~~ Lower the RTS threshold from 2347 to 2307
    Then check the status..

  • Problems w/ WRT 300N

    Hello, I have been experiencing decreased connection strength through my WPC300N wireless notebook adapter using a WRT 300N wireless router. At boot-up, the signal strength will be low, with 100+Mbps as the speed. After a few minutes it drops to 54 Mbps, then 13 or 11 Mbps, then finally 2 and 1 Mbps, signal strength very low. The internet is as slow as molasses at this point. I am using windows XP with all service packs. I live in a two story house, with the router on the second floor. However, our old Wireless G router (can't remember the model, it didn't have any speed or range boost though) would get to the laptop where its at now. I thought a WRT300N would be better, but I am having this problem now. My laptop with a Wireless G card holds up at 54 Mpbs all the time. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks a bunch in advance.

    No, the changes did not make a difference. Sorry for the long delay in response.  The signal is still dropping off very badly.  I am still having no problems connecting the WRT 300N off my really old laptop that is using an old Linksys Wireless G card. In fact, the other day I was downloading two programs at 100Kbps EACH!
    BUT, the laptop using the Wireless N card is still slowing to a snails pace within 10 minutes of connecting to the Router.  I dont know what else to do, I am thinking of trying different locations for the router to see if I can get a more stable connection.  The 14 day return period has long since passed, so I have to find a way to make this work.  But as of now, I am still having problems.

  • WRT 300N - WRT 600N

    After all I received 4 linksys wireless router n series.
    2 WRT 300n
    2 WRT 600n
    I decide to test those routers in LAB and then migrate our buisiness medium platform from G to N.
    Lets See what happened.
    1- In open office env with 200 square meter I have weak signal at corner that reduce my bandwidth to 54 Mb/s(from 270 Mb/s).I test coverage area against WRT 54g and I get Incredible result.there is no more coverage except that you forget bandwidth because it Reduce it to 11 Mb/s.
    2- I used Solarwinds Orion to get Throughput from this router and again I find a new incredible thing my dashboard show 150 Mb/s at 2 meters distance between my computer and router.
    3- I decide to use site survey to plot a map of coverage area incredibly in close building area i see a circle with 10 meter in blue witch means I can use 270 Mb/s at this range only.
    4- After All I tried to bridge two routers together I impact with a phenomena these routers series cant bridge together and there is no sign of option access point or bridge in web base console.But I read in Linksys catalog that this models are enhanced Access Points.
    5- After all problems with signaling,bandwidth,Bridging ...
    I can only say that linksys produce a product with many weakness in hardware and software.

    There is always a reality check between what marketing materials claim (a perfect test in their lab) and a real-world test. Having been on the vendor side for many years, I have seen this situation many of times.
    Hopefully the speeds will be good enough for your deployment situation. What caught my eye was your mention of Solarwinds. I have been a long time user of Orion and the Engineering Toolset. Recently I came across PacketTrap Networks (www.packettrap.com) for scanning and diagnostic tools. They also have a monitoring dashboard that I have been using for my critical devices. It was the easiest dashboard to set up that I have experienced. To top it off, they have a free version - gotta love that price. www.packettrap.com/download. Good luck, I feel your pain.

  • Power cord length

    How long is the power cord length for the MacBook Pro?

    The cord with the MagSafe connector, going from the
    power supply to the MBP, is about 1.78 m (70
    inches).
    My three-prong extension cord, going from the wall
    socket to the power supply, is about the same length,
    although I have the German version with a Schuko
    plug, so the US version may be different.
    US version is about the same.

  • I want to reset WRT 300N router

    My WRT 300N will no let me access to change the password.  I want to Press the reset Button.  How will i set up access to it again and put a password that I can remember into it.

    Not much of anything .  Here is what I did.  I held reset for about 45 seconds and nothing happened.  I did find out the router IP address it is 192.168.1.47 when I type that in it ask me for the log in and password. I try admin admin then nothing and admin and admin and nothing but it does not work.  I am stuck again.  I did yesterday get to CISCO/linksys help and after a while they said that it was out o warranty in Jan of this year....

  • Wrt 300n wireless router

    How can I connect an external antenna to my wrt 300N?

    They should just unscrew ... but the middle on (the square one) is the external and the other 2 are the detachable. I wouldn't mess with that though.

  • Max Slide/Project Length?

    Hello. I have a project that is VERY long (2 hours). I have one slide with a slide video that lasts 1352 seconds a/k/a 22 min and 32 seconds.
    is there a max length per slide as well as per project? I'm having issues getting past 999 seconds. PLEASE HELP!
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Sorry to disappoint, but there is no simple answer here. It all comes down to your encoding settings. You know H.264 vs. MPEG 2, data rates and all that... Can be 2 hours, can be considerably more if you want it to...

  • Max USB cable length for LT1421

    Does anyone know how long the USB cable can be for connecting the LT1421 flat panel to the computer?
    The screen is delivered with 1,8m but I must place the panel in a least 6 meter distance from the computer, is that possible?
    I know that the max length for USB 2 is about 5 meters, but it varies between products how sensitive they are to cable length.

    3 meters for USB1 and 5 meters for USB 2.  You can find lots of information on the subject with a quick search.  Try http://www.usb.org/about/faq/ans5 for starters.  It explains how to get up to 25 meters of USB cable when you use several USB hubs.

  • Max. Text Length

    Hey guys,
    i have the following problem:
    I have written a little widget with a simple text-block and  overflow-y scroll.
    There are some options for the font-style, but with this, there are no problems.
    The problem is, that the <text> element of .mucow have a max length from about 2000 character. Is it right?
    Is it possible to make a text with more than 2000 characters?
    Are there any paramters or functions for .mucow that are not given in the documentation?
    Are there any other ways to develop a muse-widget?
    Hope you will understand my wonderful englisch

    Hi,
    you possibly have relative width settings on your columns or elements,
    if you try to set the width of the button itself to eg 150px it can fit, ofcourse, if
    it's bigger, choose a higher amount of pixels.
    grtz,
    Koen

    How are devices connected? What is the IP address/subnet mask, gateway of your computer?

  • Max customized query length

    Hi all,
    anyone knows if it's possible to extend the maximum length (it seems to be 210 chars) of the data-block mask for customized query? I mean that mask Forms displays when, in enter-query mode, you use '&' to insert particular query conditions.
    Thanks,
    Marco

    I'm not sure.
    But one option is to build this mechanism on your own. Just popup a window to get the where clause and then use set_block_property(default_where) to attach it to the block.

  • Apple TV Power cord Length

    I am about to purchase an Apple TV, but need to know in advance how long the power cord is. I would like to run it behind my wall just like the majority of the cables for my HDTV.
    Would you believe for the life of me that I cannot find this information here at apple.com? User manual, dicsussions, etc - nothing has this info. Hoping someone out there does, or at the very least would humor me and take a measuring tape to their AppleTV power cord.
    Thanks!!

    Ashley May1,
    You haven't entered any location info in "My Settings" so we don't know where in the world you live. Since the power cord shipped with Apple products varies by country, that info would help.
    Anyway, if the cord isn't long enough, is there some reason you can't use a standard extension cord to reach an outlet? While, as someone suggested, you may be able to find a longer cord with a "figure 8" receptacle to match the socket on the Apple TV, it is usually a lot easier & cheaper to use a standard extension cord.
    Failing that, anyone with electrical wiring experience should be able to cut off the plug end of the Apple TV's power cord & splice on a longer cord in a manner that meets your local electrical code, for instance with crimp-on "butt" connectors.

  • WRT-300N - Worries about future compatibility and current network support

    Is there a way that this new router can 'trick' networking software ( Network Magic et. al. ) into running with this router.
    Seems that the Network Tools vendors are all gloom and doom about them
    because the standard is likely to change in 2008.
    This means to us that upgraded to the 300N that we can use anyones networking tools because they refuse to support them.
    Is this 2008 gloom and doom scenario true ?
    Did I make a big mistake and will need a new router in 2008 when released standard cards try to work with this router.
    I really really miss my home network !!
    Steve

    The highest I acheive is 270 and sometimes it does drop. I had a lot of tweaking to do especially with the antennas.

  • How to read binary files wrt specific BYTE size and length??

    Hello Everyone,
                                I have a project I want to accomplish. I have a binary file, and I would like to read the data and print on wfm in a specific order and size.
    The data is 16 bit binary type , and needs to be read in chunks of 2 bytes.
    i have 30 bytes of sample 1.
    followed by 2 bytes of sample 2.
    followed by another 2 bytes of sample 3.
    steps 2-4 should be repeated 10 times and then i should read sample 4 which is of 2 bytes.....
    How should I do it?? I don't have any VI build... all i have is the example VI...
    can anyone pleasehelp me???
    Now on LabVIEW 10.0 on Win7

    smercurio_fc, sorry for the confusion, i will try my best to explain...
    1. No, i don;t have to read the file again, once it has read, I used
    while loop just to see the data updating (i press run, and before i can
    visualize i have the waveforms; i can get rid of the while loop)
    2. I have 30 different values of 1 sample. actually, the data is cmg
    from tri-axial accelerometer; each axis is of 10 bytes(hence 3*10 =
    30bytes)
    3. I am repeating the steps 2-4 10 times because the data was written
    into the binary file after 10 times sampling the sensors(if first 3
    samples are read @ 1000hz, sample 4 was read at 1000/10 = 100hz)
    4. I am using the graphs to interpret the values, that's it. The
    values are already scaled when they were wrote to the binary file, I
    have to simply interpret it.
    I have made some changes in the VI, now i am reading only the first
    30bytes, that too, in chunks of 10-10-10 bytes, and plotting the 3
    samples simultaneously on a waveform chart. (will approach 1
    sensor/sample at a time) and running the loop for 10 times. I have changed I8 to I16 now.
    Please let me know if it makes sense to you now.
    P.S. each sample is a sensor data.
