WRT54G connection help!

just got it and i have verizon dsl
ran the cd and plugged everything in like it told me
came to the password and entered my own
then it searches for the connection and there is an error
it basically says that my desktop computer cannot connect to the internet
i know i probably need to manually configure something but what?

Hi…..
      While running the setup disc when it prompts for the password type admin and then try to continue the setup for the router.
Or else you can also try the Linksys automatic tool in order to get the router configured www.linksysfix.com/check

  • WRT54G.connection help needed

    so here is the problem,do not have great computer knowledge so i will try to explain in my terms. im presently online using my router although it does not connect automaticaly when turn my computer on.well it says that the internet is now connected although it does not work , so i have to do my usual dial-up connection and it works fine. so how can i get the connection to work straight away without ressourcing to my dial-up connection?
    thank you

    You would need a broadband connection such as a Cable or DSL from your ISP. Then you would need a router either wired or wireless if you plan on using a wireless laptop or other device.  With the router configured for what ever type of internet connection you would be able to turn you PC on and already be on-line.  The router will control your internet connection and allow you to network multiple computers to share one internet connection, printers and other files on the other PC's.

    HELP I have a wireless Linksys router WRT54G connected through my cable company broadband modem on a Mac. I have another computer to which I installed wireless capability because it didn't come with it. This required attching some piece of equipment to the back of the PC which enabled it to get on the internet without another cable modem. My question is this. If I get an iphone or a laptop(with built in wireless ability) will I automatically be able to go on the web because of the router on the Mac.

    yes certainly... if you get any wireless device in network that would certainly connects to a wireless n/w of router...

  • Using the latest firmware. My WRT54GS (connected through...

    Using the latest firmware. My WRT54GS (connected through a LAN cable) seems to randomely disconnect me from the internet for no apparent reason. For some reason, it can't find the DNS even though my cable modem shows that a connection is there. The only way I can get it working again is unplugging the router, reconnecting the, going into the router status menu and hitting DHCP release, then DHCP renew.
    I'm not sure whats causing this though. Any help would be appreciated.

    My GSv6  will function perfectly until my cable ISP decides to change my WAN IP address.   When they do that the router will drop internet connection  and I have to go throught the reboot process for the modem and router.  Sometimes this works and all is well again until the next ip change, but other times there are still sporadic outages.

  • WRT54g connected to modem with router

    Got a WRT54g connected to a cable modem which acts as a router.  The WRT54g gets an IP address (192.168.1.x) from the cable modem and the WRT54g can ping and tracert to sites on the internet (from the diagnostics page).   The WRT54g is acting as a DHCP server for the 192.168.9.x network and I have the cable modem connected to the WAN port.  (I need to have the cable modem connected to the WAN port b/c I'm using all the ports of the WRT54g.  I want to have the cable modem connected to the wan port too so the network are separate subnets). 
    Any idea why packets would not be going through the WRT54g?  I've tried setting the router and gateway modes, neither of which work anymore.  I think I used to have it set to router and it work. 
    Any thoughts? Suggestions?
    Thanks in Advance.  

    What network is 192.168.9.x...What other router router you have apart from wrt54g?What is the model number of the other router?What is the exact physical connection between the modem and the routers?

    hi, my iphone 4s is saying im not connected to the internet, my wifi is on and ive tried switching it off and on and nothing, still cant connect. help! it was working perfectly fine earlier today.

    Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • I have a Linksys Wrt54gs connected to a Cable modem. it w...

    i have a Linksys Wrt54gs connected to a Cable modem.
    it worked for about 8 months.
    My kid pressed a button by accident and now it won't work.
    the router just keeps resetting.
    i unplugged everything.
    conencted 1 computer, and everything is fine.
    Received DHCP address.
    Once i plug in a second computer it starts rebooting.
    Both computers are set to DHCP.
    NO internet connection is connected at this time for troubleshooting purposes.
    Nothing is connected to the ethernet port on the Linksys router (port for internet access), only 1 and 2 are connected.
    i reset the router and still nothing.
    i can connect 1 computer via wireless and 1 computer via direct connection and all is good. Once 2 devices are connected via direct connections it starts resetting.
    i can even connect the modem to the router (for internet access), and connect to the linksys router via wireless from my computer and get internet access.
    But once i direct connect 2 connections, the router starts resetting.
    i have reset and reboot it with every combination i can think of.

    Its good that its working now.
    If it happens again, try this :
    Press the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. The Power light will start flashing. Turn the Router and the Modem OFF. Turn the modem ON first, wait for 10 seconds, turn the router ON, wait for 10 seconds, you should be ONLINE !!!
    Do this when the computer os connected to the router with a cable.
    than on the computer open Internet Explorer and in the Address Bar type : 192.168.1.1 and hit enter.
    It'll ask for the password. The default password is admin.
    Once in the setup page. Click on the Wireless tab.
    In there Change the Network Mode to mixed. And change the SSID to your name.
    Change the Channel to 11. And Enable the SSID Broadcast.
    Save the settings here. After that Click on Wireless Security and configure it accordingly and Save the settrings.
    Than click on Advanced Wireless Settings. In there Disable the SES function.
    What is the firmware on the router ?

  • WRT54G connected to my Bell HSE Sympatico SpeedStream Modem.

    I have my WRT54G connected to my Bell HSE Sympatico SpeedStream Modem. It all worked fine until I tried to set the WRT54G to forward some ports so that I can get to one of the PCs from outside via the NET. I am running Windows XP pro on the PC After I set the post forwarding I still could not see the router from the Net. It seems that the Bell Modem is “blocking” something> I would appreciate some insight to solve this issue.

    There should not be a problem if you are using either the speedstream 4200 or 5300 as they are standard modems.  The 6300 and the 6520 are modem/routers so you may have to change a setting.  You can also post on the Bell Forum.

  • Can't use my HP Deskjet F4580 Wireless Printer with the AirPort Extreme Base. The printer is NOT connected at the USB port of the AirPort Extreme, and is placed in another room. It worked just fine with my previous router (Linksys WRT54G). Help me!

    Hey Guys!
    I just got my AirPort Extreme Base, but I can't use my HP Deskjet F4580 wireless printer with it.
    The printer is not connected to the AirPort Extreme's USB port. It is placed in another room, and I'd like to use it (the printer) wirelessly (not connected to the USB port os the AirPort Extreme), as I used to. There is no place for the printer close the AirPort Extreme. It worked just fine with my previous wireless router (Linksys WRT54G). I'm very disappointed with the AirPort Extreme Base Station because of that!...
    Can you help me? Please?!
    Thanks Folks!

    This must be a tough one, no suggestions at all.
