Wrt300n wireless connection

I have a new wrt300n
I set up wireless connection with psk-personal security mode.
During a session of 2 hours i had 4 times a connection loss on my laptop with windows xp. When i rescanned for wireless networks my wireless network was still visible and I could log-in again.
Signal strength is maximum.
What can be the cause of this?
wired the connetion never drops.

If you're using WPA Personal with TKIP, change it to AES. There's a bug in the firmware. This is a workaround.

WRT300N - wireless connections -- intermittent problems

I just purchased a WRT300N router and have my desktop PC wired into one of the ports but then are running three separate laptops via wireless. Both my IBM laptop and my Dell laptop continue to run into problems keeping the internet connection as the wireless connection is dropped periodically throughout the day (every 20-30 minutes). Any suggestions?

Hi!try changing the radio band of your router to wide...wide channel to7 and standard channel to 9.Also on the advance wireless settings of the router change DTIM to 3..beacon interval to 50 and rts threshold 2305..fragmentation threshold:2304...hopefully that will solve ur problem..ciao!

WRT300N wireless connection will not work when a wired computer is online line

I have an ATT DSL connection. I have no problems accessing the internet when the when my two wired Desktop PCs are online. However, when I try to access the wireless connection through my Laptop (when the Desktop PCs are on) I get a message that Windows could not "Connect to the Wireless Network." However, when I turn off the desktop PCs my Laptop searches for and is able to access the internet. Solutions anyone?

The operating system for the Laptop is XP. The IP address of the modem is 192.168.0.1. The IP address for router is 192.168.1.1

WRT300N V1.1 - Firmw v1.51.2 - Problems to get wireless connection after long idle time

Hello,
I have a WRT300N, v1.1 with latest firmware available (v1.51.2).
I've been experiencing a strange problem:
1. After long idle time (router is on, no devices are using it wirelessly), no device can get a wireless connection;
2. I have tried using different OSes (Windows XP SP2, Windows Vista, and Symbian OS);
3. Wireline connection to a FE port works (if I plug a device using the cable, I can get an IP address and navigate to the internet).
4. If power reset it (WRT300N), I can get wireless connections working again.
Is this a known issue?
Thanks, Gustavo

Well as you are able to go online from your Hardwired Computer, then i think you need to make some changes on the Wireless Part of your Router. Follow this settings on your Router, i think this might solve the problem.
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
Click on the Wireless tab
- Here select manual configuration...Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
- Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
- Set the Radio Band to Wide-40MHz and change the Wide channel to 9 and Standard Channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on save settings...
Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
For Wireless Security : -
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select AES...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone.
NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
Change the Beacon Interval to 50 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304 Change the RTS Threshold to 2307 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...

WRT300N Stopped accepting wireless connections

I have a WRT300N, and last night, my roommates lost wireless connection. Our SSID still shows up in the site survey, with excellent strength, but the router has apparently stopped accepting wireless connections.
We have reset the router twice, reset to factory defaults, upgraded the firmware, reconfigured the wireless setup and they still cannot connect. Even when we turned off security, the connection process just times out.
It seems to me like the router is broadcasting the SSID, but the part that "listens" for incoming connections is broken.
What could be wrong? The router is only about 6 months old.

Hi... it seems to be a weird issue after firmware upgrade it should resolved the problem... anyways logon to router's setup page, try changing radio band to wide 40 Mhz, wide channel to 9, standard channel to 11, go to advanced wireless settings and reduce beacon interval to 50, fragmentation and RTS threshold to 2304 and setup WPA wireless security check whether it works or not and let me know...

Nintendo wi wireless connection with wrt300n

WRT300N - Problem Connecting With Desktop

I recently reset my HP desktop to the factory default after experiencing a whole slew of technical issues I had neither intention nor time to deal with. As a result of the reset, I lost connectivity to my host computer which runs a WRT300N Wireless Router. This wasn't a suprise, but I then ran into a few more problems in trying to reconnect. The first issue I experienced was that on my client PC, it wouldn't detect the Wireless PCI Card I previously installed before the factory reset. This was a quick fix, as upon opening the tower, I discovered the card had become disconnected. I connected the card and ran the installation CD successfully. Since the installation program contains a service to select the wireless network you wish to connect to, I did so, and followed the on screen directions to reset my computer. Unfortunately, I was still disconnected from the intended wireless network upon opening up Internet Explorer. I ran the Wirless Zero Configuration service on my computer so I could deal with the wireless networks on more familiar ground. I was completely dumbfounded to what I saw there. It detected the wireless network, but it gives all the wrong information about it. The SSID resembles the actual SSID, but it is not the same. Also, it says that the wireless network is unsecured when, in actuality, is it secured with a WEP Key. I am stumped. A PSP and HP laptop have absolutely no problem connecting to this network. The problem seems to soley exist with my HP desktop. Any help at all would be great. Thank you.

Hi,
Have you tried to install latest drivers for the wireless PCI card.
Download those from www.linksys.com/download from a computer already online.
Transfer those drivers to computer with the wireless PCI card, using a flash drive or by burning a disk.
Uninstall the old drivers from desktop, reboot the desktop computer.
Install the new drivers and again reboot the desktop computer.
Now check for available wireless networks and try to connect to wireless network.

Wireless connection quit! Help please.

I am currently running the following on my wrt300n
Cable internet shared between:
PS2 - wired
XBox - Wired
XBox 360 - Wired
Playstation 3 - Wireless
Playstation Portable - Wireless
Two Windows XP PCs - Wireless
Windows Server laptop - Wireless
The setup has worked wonderfully for about six months or so and yesterday I lost the wireless. The wired works fine, I have just lost the wireless capability.
The wrt300n lights are all green, even the wireless light is on. I have re-booted the modem, and the router, both individually and together at the same time. I have also gone into the router via a wired system and all of the connections seem fine, I turned off the wireless and turned it back on with no luck.
It worked fine 2 days ago and I left overnight (turning all the systems off) and came back with no wireless signal.
Is there a history of the wrt300n wireless just dying like that and what could cause something like this?
Any help would be appreciated.

I have been running a WRT300N for several months w/o problems in a heavilly used wi-fi cafe'. If you haven't changed anything, that doesn't mean someone else didn't. You may want to reset using the pushbutton on the back to factory defaults(hold-in for about 15sec). If it's going to work at all it should after that. Always shut everything on the network down for a couple minutes, then power up at the cable modem working toward the PCs, pause for a couple minutes at each device or until completely booted up.

I need help to configure new wrt300n wireless and broadband router

Just purchased the wrt300n wireless-n-broadband router. The router is not being found. I have all the cat5 cables connected. I am running windows 2000 with a cable internet connection. There are 4 wired computers on the network I am trying to setup. The internet connection is great if I run it through the modem. I have run the cd-based wizard provided with the router a couple of times. No Luck! Please help!

you have a cable modem?
if so you need to reboot the cablemodem so it will see the mac address of the new device your adding to the network.
if you have ADSL we shall take it a stage further.

Often lose wireless connection when using HDTV as monitor

I have an unusual wireless networking problem when using my Samsung HDTV in my living room as a monitor for my MacBook (when watching Internet TV shows, for example). Frequently when I switch URLs, networking freezes, even though the connection appears strong, with the Airport symbol at the top of my screen showing all bars. To re-establish the wireless connection, I have to go through the process of re-joining my network through the “Join Other Network" option. The signal holds as long as I don’t try to change it, as in selecting another URL.
I connect to my HDTV via HDMI cable, using a mini-DVI to HDMI adapter from my Macbook’s video-out port. The audio connection is a mini-plug from the Mac’s headphone out jack to stereo RCA plugs associated with the TV’s HDMI port.
The wireless connection is through a Lynksys Wireless-G 2.4 Ghz, 54 Mpbs Broadband router.
I’d appreciate any solutions the Apple user community has to offer.

I'd say this has nothing to do with your display. The problem will likely lie in either your router settings, network settings or a simple signal strength issue. Try first changing the broadcast channel on your router, and make sure all settings are correct for your desired network.

Can't configure Wireless Connection to HP OfficeJet Pro L7780

I recently purchased both my iMac 24" 2.8GHz computer with OS x 10.5.2 and HP OfficeJet Pro L7780. I was able to use the HP setup CDs for my Windows laptops and configured them to use the printer in a wireless configuration.
The iMac is creating the headache (actually I think it's HP causing the headache). When I try to install HP's driver 9.7.1 using their utility, it is unable to detect the L7780 in a wireless configuration. The moment I connect via USB or wired Ethernet, the printer is detected without a problem. My printer is located @ 192.168.1.30, fixed IP address via a NetGear FSW308 switch. My iMac is fixed @ 192.168.1.100 and the gateway is 192.168.1.1
I spent hours on the phone with HP support and am still in the same spot... HP software won't find the printer when it is wireless. I can configure OS x 10.5.2 to use the internal L7700 series driver and put the IP address in the dialog box. The printer prints without issue using the OS printer drivers, but the other features such as scan and fax will not work without the HP software.
I can ping the printer and I can connect to the printer's EWS, but the HP software will not find the software.
Overall config: iMac wireless network connection to switch; Printer also wireless connection to switch.
So far HP is dumbfounded and all they can say is that I should call Apple because the printer software works fine when I connect the Ethernet or USB cables.
HELP!
Thanks,
Roland

Thank you for the thought. Yes, although my SSID is public, I have a WEP 128-bit security key. The printer, the iMac and my Windows laptops all connect to the wireless network without issue, as evidenced by my Windows laptops and iMac (if I use the driver included with OS X 10.5.2).
I can ping the printer from the iMac as well as connect to the printer's web interface, so connectivity exists. It is as if the setup software or the printer are trying to communicate using a port that or service that OS X may be blocking.
My OS X firewall is configured to accept all connections though... so that shouldn't be the issue unless there is a bug in accepting all connections.
Thanks,
Roland

I get wireless connection but my internet does not work on my ipad 2

I get wireless connection but my internet does not work on my ipad 2

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Wireless connection not working after installed newest Lenovo ThinkVantage System Update programs

Hi, everyone!
I've installed some newest programs through Lenovo ThinkVantage System Update and just after that my wireless connection has stopped working. Here are the installed programs:
ThinkPad UltraNav Driver for Windows 32-bit version 15.0.24.0;
ThinkPad Power Management Driver version 1.60;
ThinkPad Modem Adapter version 7.80.8.0;
ThinkPad Hotkey Features Integration Package Setup version 3.11.0001;
Inter Wireless WiFi Link for Window XP version 13.02.0000;
ThinkVantage Access Connections for Windows XP version 5.62;
ThinkPad Power Manager version 1.88;
Lenovo ThinkVantage Toolbox (32-bit) version 6.0.5514.61.
I've got a Lenovo T61 with Windows XP SP3.
Also in Device Manager, there are now the two "Other devices" bellow with a yellow question point and a yellow exclamation point by side:
Bluetooth Hands-free Audio;
Bluetooth LAN Access Server Driver.
Does anyone have any idea what can be done to have these issues solved?
P.S.: when I click Fn+F5 it shows only the Bluetooth Radio.

Hello and welcome,
I've seen something like this on XP machines after updates a couple of times now - my T61, a friend's T400, and his daughter's T61. I guess that makes 3
_Maybe_ your situation is the same.
The fix in all 3 cases was to go to device manager and uninstall the wifi driver. Then scan for hardware changes and let it reinstall the driver. Something about how Access Connections or some other networking mangement thingy was hooking the drivers I guess.
On both of the friend's machines, the wired networking was also b0rked. Same fix there.

My hp top shot laserjet pro m275 cannot find my wireless connection

Hi there,
my printer cannot find any wireless connection available.
and the blue light on the wifi icon is blinking.
how do I solve this problem so i can print again?

The blue wireless light flashing means you are not connected to your routers SSID. You need to go back and connect to your routers SSID with it's password to get the light on solid.
Say thanks by clicking the Kudos Thumbs Up to the right in the post.
If my post resolved your problem, please mark it as an Accepted Solution ...
I worked for HP but now I'm retired!

After downloading Yosemite, my HP Photosmart D110 printer will no longer work. The wireless connection is fine but says it cannot find my printer when trying to print.

After downloading Yosemite my printer, a HP Photosmart D100 will no longer print. The wireless connection is fine, and a test page printed perfectly directly from my printer. When trying to print from my computer, it says it cannot connect or find the printer. I tried downloading the most updated software from HP website but it doesn't appear to be helping.

Try resetting the printing system.
OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
If you have the printers IP address open Terminal (applications/Utilities) and at the prompt type: ping {printerIP}. You will get a reply or failure.
