WRT350N: Vista cannot get wireless connection

I recently got a laptop to use on a wireless connection to my WRT350N. When I first set it up, it easily got a wireless connection to the WRT350N. After a few weeks of reliable wireless operation, the wireless connection would occasionally disconnect without warning or any apparent reason. I was usually able to reconnect fairly quickly until a couple of days ago. From that point on, reconnection was not assured. I switched the wireless mode on the WRT350N from mixed to one of the other options and got my last successful connection. Soon after that, the wireless connection dropped again and I've never been able to reconnect since, no matter what settings I specify. Windows Vista sees other wireless networks available (from neighbors' homes), but does not see my WRT350N even when sitting right next to it.
I've tried the EasyLink Advisor and it just says: "EasyLink Advisor could not establish a wireless connection to the Router." That's not very helpful. How can I restore a wireless connection from my laptop to the WRT350N?

Thanks, Helm, for your reply. Before seeing your reply, I called Linksys tech support and we got it working again. Basically, they had me clear the list of wireless connections under "manage wireless networks" in Vista. They had me change the security settings from PSK2 Personal and enter a new key. With that, I was able to get a wireless connection again. I told the tech that I preferred to stick with PSK2. So I switched back while he was still on the phone and got a successful wireless connection with PSK2. He suggested that my loss of connection in the first place was caused by the key being changed under PSK2 / AES and it was related to the key renewal period. It wasn't clear how to avoid encountering the trouble again. But at least I know how to recover from it should it happen again.

    I enter my password but my iPhone will not connect.  My other iPhone does the same thing.  My Mac and my iPad work on the wireless???

    If you mean it does not connect to your home WiFi network you can probably fix it by rebooting your router. Remove all power from it for about 15 seconds. Even if it works with other devices.

    What do you mean it did not work!  What were the results of the diagnostic tests?
    Have you contacted your ISP to determine if the problem is on their end?  
    Have you changed your router channel?  Sometimes this resolves wireless problems.

  • Cannot get Wireless to work

    I have a brand new W520 for my company and we cannot get wireless to work. Here is what I tried.
    Clean install of Windows 7 Professional
    Installed the ThinkVantage tools, including Access Connections.
    Installed the drivers from the Lenvo Support site. Had to install manually as Lenovo System Update would not return anything for me to install, even when I had a ton of missing drivers.
    Installed the ThinkPad Wireless LAN drivers for the wireless card in my system. I have the ThinkPad b/g/n card.
    No wireless adapter is found for the wireless, just the Intel 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection which works fine for the wired connection.
    The wireless radio is on. I flipped the switch mutliple times. The screen seems to flicker when I flip it but nothing happens.
    ThinkVantage Access Connections says "No supported wireless adapters are installed on the system" when I click "Manage Wireless Radio".
    I verified the card is seated properly and the connections are all tight.
    I ran a PC Doctor scan (from boot disk) against the wireless card and it Passed.
    In Device Manager I have two items remaining that show issues.
    Base System Device
    Network Controller
    I can't seem to resolve those two items in device manager with any of the drivers I've found on the Lenovo support site.
    Any suggestions?
    Solved!

    Hi egregorich,
    Check in the BIOS whether it's enabled, F1 to enter the BIOS, it should be under Config -> Networks.
    Also, can you let us know what does the sticker on the card say? Does it say Intel Wimax 5150 or 5350? 
    Try the following driver, the one on this support page is incorrectly linked as ThinkPad driver when it's not (or unless the ThinkPad card in your system is from Intel which I highly doubt):- http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/documen​t.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-76909

  • 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...

  • 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

  • Cannot get Local Connection, No available resource, Wait-time expired

    Hi Friends,
    Please answer my queries below.
    Thanks and Regards
    Busincess Requirement
    I have to display a particular set of rows in a dashboard or screen, and it is being refreshed every 1 minute, also user can update from that screen displayed values.
    The below program extracts some data from database and passes to the front end through a collection where it is being displayed.
    Code Logic Flow
    1. CockpitAction calls CockpitOraDAO for database results
    2. CockpitOraDAO is a singleton class.
    3. After getting the CockpitOraDAO object, the action will then call the getLabAreaCockpitDetails() method.
    getLabAreaCockpitDetails will
         - Get the Connetion from the OracleConnectionManager class (It is a plain class with getPooledConnection() and releaseConnection() methods).
         - Execute the query and put the result to a collection
         - close the connection
         - return result to the calling action.
    This getLabAreaCockpitDetails() are called around once in every 1 minute
    So, I believe everytime a call is made to action for cockpit display, it will take the existing object of the CockpitOraDAO class and make a call to database. i.e there will be only one object of CockpitOraDAO reside in application server at any particular interval of time.
    My Understandings
    1. Only 1 object of CockpitOraDAO will reside in application server (provided it is not user longer and garbage collected) at a particular instance.
    2. Many objects of Connection will be created and destroyed.(Each time the getLabAreaCockpitDetails() method is called, we will get one connection from connection pool and in finally the Connection will be released to connection pool).
    My Problems
    It is showing the "Cannot get Local Connection, No available resource, Wait-time expired"
    after running around 1 full day.
    My doubts
    1. Can anybody say why I get this error ?
    2. There may be some connections are not closed. But I have checked at finally block, the status of the connection is closed after calling this method.
    3. There may be some problem due to the singleton instane of CockpitOraDAO, Is it affecting performance ?
    4. Is it valid that I have to make CockpitOraDAO as Singleton ?
    public class CockpitOraDAO extends DAOAdaptor //implements BISample
         private static CockpitOraDAO instance=null;
         private static boolean debug = true;
         * The below method will be used to provide the singleton intance of the CockpitOraDAO object.
         public static CockpitOraDAO getInstance()
              if (instance == null)
                   synchronized (CockpitOraDAO.class)
                        if (instance == null)

    Hi,
    As you can see from other posts, this is a very common problem. Until now the cause always ends up pointing to a connection not being close.
    I suggest you try to run through a full single cycle of you app, while using the CLI monitoting to check that the connections created/closed matches the expected created/closed connections. Also that the number of free connections at the end is correct.

    What is the "right" location? I'll assume you mean your app's WEB-INF/lib.
    Sounds like your Java code isn't closing statements and/or connections properly, or perhaps you need to increase the number of connections in the pool. I'm guessing it's the former.

    "Cannot get mail, connection to the service failed". why and how do I repair it?

    Thanks. However...these links are to basic troubleshooting.  Good stuff, except I -- like it seems others -- have multiple email accounts coming into their iPhones (my case, iPhone 5 running latest version of iOS) that until this past Friday evening (September 12, 2014).... worked perfectly, then just all stopped.
    In my case, I also lost access to an internet forum I frequent multiple times daily.  All worked fine, until things abruptly stopped working the evening of September 12.
    Seems like anything with a stored login/password got hosed.
    I went into the profiles to make sure my passwords were still there (thought they may have somehow gotten wiped out), but they were there.  I re-entered them just in case, no change.
    Now just this morning, Sunday September 14, two emails from the same (employer) email account have trickled in.  But nothing from the others (gmail, yahoo mail).
    Spouse is having same issue on an iPhone 5.
