WRT160N won't connect to tv

I'm having an issue getting my tv to start connecting again to the wireless router.
Have tried pin setup (timed out & didn't connect...attempted at least 10 times in this fashion)
Have tried entering the password (router seems to refuse the connection to the tv)
About a month ago, I was in the Network Magic Map & it looked like one of the laptops had been cloned, so I removed it from the network. Could this have created the issue?  How do I reauthorize if that's the case?

Are you getting an error message when you try to reconnect your wireless TV to your router? What type of security are you using on your router? I do not think that it was the case about your Network Magic. And try to check wireless macfiltering on your router as well, check if it is enabled that might be the reason why your wireless TV cannot connect anymore.
Accessing the router’s web-based setup page:
http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=80&vw=1&articleid=3676
When you get to the setup page of the router: click on the Wireless tab and then click on Wireless MAC Filter.
Prevent - means block wireless access from the devices listed on this screen.
Permit. -means allow wireless access by the devices listed on this screen.

  • WRT160N Won't Connect With Windows Mobile Device

    I had another wireless router for years that connected almost instantly to my Windows Mobile 6.1 handheld device.  I switched to the WRT160N and it works great with my wireless laptops.  The device does not even show up in my available device lists on my Windows Mobile phone with wi-fi.  I tried manually connecting and it does not work.  I tried all of the other security settings, it does not work. The phone manufacturer (not the sevice provider which is Verizon) has acknowledged that they are having calls only about Cisco branded routers.  Does anyone have a solution?

    I had exactly the same problem. Tried the live technical support chat but didn't solve the problem. Resorted to random changing of settings and discovered if I changed the router setting Wireless -> Basic Wireless Settings - Network mode from 'Mixed' to 'BG-Mixed' my Windows Mobile 6.1 device found the network and happily connects with WPA2

  • Wrt160N won't connect to my hp L7880

    Just hooked up a wrt160N to replace an existinfgD-Link router. Every laptop connects seemlessly, the only issue is that I can't get my HP L7880 to conect. It appears in the detected device menu but it is not highlighted like the laptops which are able to conect to the network. Thnaks in advance for any help.  Paul

    I believe your HP L7880 is a wireless printer -- but I don't see it listed on any of HP's help sites --- here's a link for setting up a similar model (7780) that should work for your L7880 -- http://tinyurl.com/y9srlg4
    You may want to check and see if the printer's drivers are up to date also

  • WRT160N won't connect my desktop

    I just bought a WRT160N, this isn't my first linksys wireless setup so I kind of know what I'm doing. I get the cable modem hooked up the router then the router to the desktop, plug in the router power supply but on the set-up disk when it says to hook up the power supply to the router it always comes up and says error that it cannot set up the router. The lights are all on the router, when I got to my network and sharing center(VISTA) it says limited connectivity and the line from "This Computer" to  "Network"  is green but from "Network" to the globe for intertet is not and there is an X thourgh the globe. Then under that for Access ---- Limited Connectivity.
    Any ideas, thanks a lot.

  • My Wii and my Linksys WRT160N won't connect

    When I try to go on to the internet from my Wii console I can only get to the point where the Wii console recognizes my network but won't allow me to connect to the internet (error code 51330).
    I have tried turning the router firewall off and various other things but nothing has seemed to solve the problem...
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    I had the exact same problem with this model of router and finally figured out how to fix it.  First, go into your wii settings and then into the internet settings.  Find your Mac address for the wii and write it down.  After that you need to use the software that came with your linksys where you see the router and all the hubs surrounding it.  You must log into your router and then you will see a menu that says something with "access".  You will need to go there and on the second or third line there is a place for you to create a list.  This is where you enter the wii Mac address.  Once you do this and apply the new settings your wii should be working with the internet. 

  • WRT160N Won't connect to wired PC

    Got this yesterday and it has been great for all my wireless needs, laptop, PSP, and Wii. Today tho I ran into a problem of it not allowing the wired PC to connect to the internet. It shows a connection and shows no errors but I have intermidiate to no connection on it what so ever.
    Why does it show connection but then not allow me to get online?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You need to configure your router manually...

  • My iPhone 3GS won't connect to my Linksys WRT160N v3

    I have an iPhone 3GS and figured what a great idea it would be to have a wireless network in my house!  So i bought a Linksys WRT160N v3 wireless router.  And problems galore!  I can connect to my network alright but my iPhone won't switch over to "wireless" mode if you know what i mean.  It remains in "3G" mode. Not sure why it won't switch over.  After doing some research, i may have stumbled upon the problem...maybe?   Looking at the specs of an iPhone 3GS, it appears that it doesn't support "N" routers(i.e. 802.11 b/g - but no "N")  So did i screw up and buy the wrong router?  Is this router backwards compatible?
    Thanks!
    Dave 

    Same problem with Linksys WR160N and WiFi iPhone connection. No matter what you do it won't connect. It DOES for about 3min and then kicks you out, period.
    I just bought this Linksys WR160N and my OLD Linksys G worked 100% better then this.

  • My HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 won't connect to my wireless router

    This is bizarre.  I have had my HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 for about 6 months.  It has generally worked fine, and we have used it wirelessly only.  But now it refuses to connect to the router.  It can FIND the router, and it can find other networks in the area, but it won't connect to the router.  I ran the Wireless Network Test, and the results say:
    Wireless On - Pass // Wireless Working - Pass //
    Network Name (SSID) found - Pass //  Wireless Networks Detected - 9
    Printer Settings Consistent with Wireless Router Settings - Pass / No Filtering - FAIL //
    So it recommends solution as follows: "1 If MAC Address filtering is enabled, and you would like to keep it enabled, you must add the Mac address of your printer to the list of permitted devices for your router before continuing."
    Except, guess what, I don't have MAC Address filtering enabled.  I wouldn't know how to do that, much less check for it.
    Also, before today, this was never a problem.  HELP!
    Thanks....
    If you are interested, here's more detail and background.  
    Before today, the only problem we have had is that frequently our Apple laptop (OS X 10.6) has trouble connecting to the printer.  This has been odd because the printer is connected to the network, and so is the laptop, but the laptop can't find the printer - it thinks the printer is "offline" (even though it's not).  Usually, if I wait a while, it will find the printer, and it will resolve itself work fine.  If not, we sometimes have found that it can fix itself if you restart the laptop -- restarting the printer does not make a difference.   In fact, I did exactly that today, and it resolved itself.  And I printed.  Fine, right?
    But then I wanted to do more printing, and the problem of the laptop not finding the printer came up again, so I decided to really "get to the bottom of this."  I don't remember exactly what I did, but somehow I was persuaded by the online help, that the correct solution would be to go into my System Preferences / Print and Fax, and click on the "-", which de-installs the printer, with the idea of re-installing the printer.  But then when I tried to re-install the printer, it could not find the printer.  Ugh!  Wierdly, it found an 8600 Scanner, but not an 8600 printers.  After installing and de-installing the 8600 scanner a few times, I eventually deinstalled everything, and I decided to start from scratch.  I got my HP disk, and installed all the software again from the beginning (even though it was already there), and then it looked for my printer, but couldn't find it.  So then I got a USB cord, and plugged that in.
    So, now I have a situation where I do have a working printer via the USB cord, but no wireless connection at all.  In particular, since the Office Jet Pro 8600 won't connect to the router, I don't know what else to do.  My Apple MacBook pro is 2 feet away from the printer, and it is connected to the router just fine (as is my blackberry), and I have never before had a problem connecting to the wireless router by the printer.
    Any suggestions?

    There are two things that can trip the mac filtering test to fail:  actual MAC address filtering setup (sounds like this is not the case) and using wireless channel 6 or automatic for wireless channel in the wireless network settings (in the router).  Since it does show failed for MAC filtering and you do not use this option, try changing the wireless channel in the router to 1 or 11.  Those two channels provide the best compatibility with printers due to less interference.  Almost everything defaults to auto or 6 for the channel and this causes a lot of interference.  This change should not affect anything at all.  To do this, you may need to contact the router manufacturer as the process differs from router to router.
    What brand and model is the router?
    Has anything in the network settings changed at all?
    What version is the Mac OS X?  There may be additional steps to take as it sounds like there are two separate issues involved and this could be revisited later.

    HI,
    The Apple IDs from @mac.com and @me.com (Older MobileMe and more recent iCloud Names) are also Valid AIM Screen names.
    Any other sort of Apple ID is not a Valid AIM Name.
    A Google ID that is associated with Google Mail Account (And has "Talk" enable on your Google Settings) can be used in iChat as  Jabber Name/ID.  (Google Run  Jabber server).
    Jabber and AIM are different IM Services and it is not easy or straight forward to add Buddies from one Service to the Buddy List of another.  (As A Starting point consider it "impossible")
    iChat 4 and 5 have links to the registration page of @Mac.com here with a "Get an iChat Account" button in the add (Account) screen  (You select @mac.com or MobileMe and then press the Button - Choosing AIM and then pressing the button used to lead to the AIM registration page but AIM moved their page).
    Apple IDs can be any valid email (or an @mac.com or iCloud registration)
    Therefore you could make a Google ID into an Apple ID.
    However this will not be a valid AIM Screen Name the way @mac.com or MobileMe/iCloud ones are.

  • HP 6520 wifi won't connect

    Just took a 6520 out of the box, trying to set it up/print to it from a windows 8.1 computer, after returning a 4620 printer that had the same problem.
    Ran the setup software. Setup software can't even manage to figure out what wireless network the computer it's running on is connected to - useless.
    Printer can find the wireless network, and when using the wrong password, won't connect, citing wrong password.
    When I use the right password, it just fails to connect.
    I've rebooted my router, rebooted my computer, rebooted the printer. No good. Print doctor software is useless as it can't even find the printer.
    I've turned off MAC filtering on my router, and disabled Windows Firewall. Nothing.
    I have an epson printer that has no problem connecting, and every other wifi capable device I own can connect to my wifi with no problem, from both Android and apple phones to tablets to four different PCs and laptops to my freaking nest thermostat. Why can't my printer manage to just work over wifi?
    I do not have a USB cable for the printer (it wasn't sold with one), btw, so trying that is out (besides, I bought this as a wireless printer, not a wired printer).
    Help please.

    Hi MattMihaly,
    Welcome to the HP forums!
    I see you have a Photosmart 6520 and a Windows 8.1 computer that don't seem to want to talk to one another. I'm sorry to hear this, but I will certainly do my best to help!
    I would suggest you start by following the steps for Windows 8 in this 'Unable to Find Printer' Error Message Displays on the Computer During a Wireless Network Installati... document (make sure to follow the Option two: Connect with the Wireless Setup Wizard under Step five). If that doesn't resolve it, please try the steps under Your printer has never worked over the network in the HP Wireless printing center.
    I realize you may have tried some of these steps, perhaps all of them, before but often trying them in a specific order is what makes the difference
    Let me know how this goes for you!

    Hello erking,
    Sorry to hear that you are having an issue with connecting the printer to your Mac over a wireless connection.

  • IPOD won't connect to Windows or show up in itunes...HELP

    Have my daughter's 30 GB 5th Gen Ipod here. When you plug it into the computer with the cord, it will turn on, and charge. However I get a balloon come up that says "One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not regognize it. For assistance in solving this issue click this message." I clicked the message. It shows the Ipod in Device Manager as an "unknown device" and when you try to update the driver, it says there are no better drivers to install than the one currently installed. I have tried the 5 R's step by step several times, and that does not work. I can not restore it because it does not show up in itunes. I have tried it on other computers and it does the same thing. It plays the music she has on it, works fine, but we can not get it to connect to either computer. Her friend's Ipods connect to both our computers fine, and will download songs etc. I also have tried putting it into disc mode to see if it would go into itunes so we can restore it. Same message comes up when you have it in disc mode. I have also tried the "tap on the palm" suggestion, which made no difference at all. It just won't connect. I do have the newest version of itunes downloaded and installed.
    I am at my wits end with this thing! PLEASE help me get this thing to connect.
    Thanks!

Also I updated all my PC software, as well as my Iphone and still nothing. I tried plugging in my itouch to see if it would work and it does! So i think something with my phone is the problem! Please help!

    Hi,
    I have the same trouble. After reading many internet sites around this subject I found the following solution.
    Although apple explained that it is not necessary with the lightning connector to use it in a special direction this seems not to be true.
    I have just turned my connector by 180° and it is working again.
    Hopefully this direction does not fail too. There are only 2 possibilities
