WRT54G v.6 intermittent disconnections

I've been using my WRT54G router for a year now and it always worked pretty well. But about a month ago i started to lose internet connection every now and then (maybe 1 or 2 times each day). Now the problem occurs approximately every hour. I updated the firmware yesterday hoping it would resolve it but it didn't.
The connection always goes away for about 5 seconds and then comes back from itself. I witnessed that the orange light illuminating the Cisco Systems "logo" turns off during the time internet is disconnected. Also, i think the problem comes from the router itself because everything connected to has the same problem simultaneously (my computer, wich is connected to it with a ethernet cable and every other device connected to it wireless like other computers/game consoles). When i connect my computer directly to the modem (without using the router) it works perfectly well so the problem does not come from it. I searched the web for people having a similar problem but i didn't found anything like it.
If anyone out there has a suggestion it would be very appreciated because i tried a lot of things and i am now thinking about buying a new router.
PS : Sorry for my english... it's far from perfect

After you perform a firmware upgrade on the router, you must reset the router to factory defaults, then re-configure the router.If you have not resetted the router after the upgrade, then reset your router... Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds.Then, unplug the power keep holding down the reset button for another 30 Seconds.Plug the power back in, and keep holding down the reset button for 30 Seconds.Release the reset button. To re-configure your router click here , Also change the Wireless Settings and try to connect...Check if this helps...

WRT54G: Frequent, but intermittent Disconnects

I have a WRT54G that I've been using for almost 2 years now. For the most part, the router works great, even though it will occassionaly drop my computer's [i]wired[/i] connection and often drop my Xbox's [i]wireless[/i] connection. More recently, I have upgraded to Windows 7 and am experiencing very frequent, but intermittent disconnects which mainly appear to be on the wired end.
Steps I've Taken Thus Far
Updated NIC drivers
Updated Router Firmware (Apparently 8.00.7 is the latest for my router.)
Reset router to factory configuration and reconfigured
Searched all over the internet for a solution
Basically, this is what happens: I'll be online, usually playing a game or trying to d/l a patch for one and things will be great, but out of nowhere, the router's power light will start blinking and the little SES button (that Cisco one that lights up) will shut off - this is when I lose my connection. Sometimes it's just temporary and the router will cycle, the powerlight will go solid and the Cisco light will turn back on. Often, I have to unplug and plug the router back in to get it to cycle. I don't think I'm losing connection to my cable modem as the Internet light stays active, but maybe. So it seems to me that I'm mainly losing connection on just my own network. The strange thing is that sometimes I can go for [i]hours[/i] without any trouble but sometimes I can't make it 10 minutes without losing my connection 3 or 4 times.
Any help?

Since you have done all the settings on your Router, and already upgraded the firmware on your Router... As you have mentioned that after a period of time, the power light on your router starts flashing and at that moment you are disconnected from all your computer...
Well i think its a problem with the router itself. I hate to say that but I think its time for you to get a New Router.

Intermittent Disconnects for clients of 2008 R2 Remote Desktop Services

Hello, I have an issue that I am trying to work on for a client who is experiencing intermittent disconnected sessions when logged into a Windows 2008 R2 Remote Desktop Services (RDS) server.
As I mentioned, the disconnect is intermittent in nature and almost appears to be network related, although I cannot find any data in the Application, System, or application specific logs to support that.
The RDS server overall does not exhibit any error, but the user's session is briefly interrupted and then restored. I would like to be able to gain some additional information about what is going on under the hood, but I am having trouble finding any
details on how to turn on debug logging for Terminal Services (er, RDS) on 2008 R2.
Can someone provide some additional details on what kind of logging or other means that I can take on this server in order to gain some additional insight?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hi,
There are certain reason for which the client get disconnect from the server. The following are some of the commonly seen symptoms:
• You may be limited in the number of users who can connect simultaneously to a Remote Desktop session or Remote Desktop Services session.
• You may have a port assignment conflict.
• You may have an incorrectly-configured Authentication and Encryption setting.
• You may have a certificate corruption.
More information.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2477176
If you want to have log for login\logoff for the client on server end then you can get the information from below log.
Event Viewer>Application and Service Logs>Microsoft>Windows>TerminalServices-LocalSessionManager>Operational
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

HT204400 Intermittent disconnects or connectivity issues

I have done everything the help guide said to do I even went as far as to move the router to the living room so that I could hard wire to it and I am still having Intermittent disconnects. Can someone please help me?

Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
The following article(s) may help you.

Wrt54gs is intermittantly disconnecting

In the last 3 weeks I have had to "power off" the linksys router. After speaking with my cable company the last time they mentioned they were offering their own routers. Could they be sending out a signal to bump my router offline or is the age of my router such that I need to replace it? Or do I need to upgrade the firmware and since my version 2.1 is not listed to which version do I upgrade it? Thanks BnG

It seems that you need to update your routers software. Anyway, if you are online hardwired to your router. Try going to www.linksys.com/connect. Download the software called Easylink Firmware Tool. Just run this software and hopefully this should assist you in upgrading your routers firmware.
If this would not work, or would fail to upgrade your router, you might need to do it manually instead. Go to www.linksys.com/downloads . Input your product model number w/c is WRT54G and select your router version. You can find the actual version underneath the router itself on one of the stickers. Just like the image below.
Select the data labeled firmware and just save it to the main desktop page. Then open up a new web browser, type on the address bar now the numbers 192.168.1.1 (password as a default is usually admin, username just leave it blank). Then follow the instructions on the image below.
Click on browse, select the file you just downloaded, click on open and then hit the upgrade button.
NOTE: Make sure you do all of these on a hardwired PC.

WRT54G v.6 Periodic Disconnects. HELP!

The issue i am having is interesting. I have the WRT54G v.6 wireless router. I have a strong cable connection wired directly from the modem to my desktop, currently. I purchased the router so that my roommate could make use of the wireless cable connection as well.
I set up the router, wiring my desktop to it, while my roommates laptop picked up the wireless connection without an issue. However.. about 20-25 minutes afterward, the connection for BOTH the wired desktop and wireless laptop would be interrupted/disconnected for a few seconds to minute, then reconnect. This happens continuously. This is problematic as a main reason for the connection is to game online. I will be having a wired LAN gathering of sorts for the same reason this weekend, so i am hoping to understand why this is happing, and resolve the issue.
Linksys tech support has been unable to diagnose the issue, nor even provide me with a competent understanding of the problem i am describing, being as outsourcing has resulted in the support staff simply reading a scripted log. I have called them three times, and they have been of no assistance.
The wired and wireless connection worked and was recognized with the base default settings of the router. I altered the settings as per the support staff's directions to no avail. I also ran the wireless notebook through the linksys "easy access setup" program, also to no avail.
I have since then disconnected the router, and once again, i am running my desktop directly to the modem. I have not experienced a disconnect since, so i am certain the problem is router-based.
Can anyone provide some insight?

EXACTLY MY SAME PROBLEM!!!!
Im using the same router version 6, 1 WIRED computer, 3 Wireless LAPTOP connection, And disconnection is relgular, although it jus reconnects autmatically, i jus find it ANNOYING!!!!!!!!!!!!
contacted Linksys, who is now offering me support she directs me to
"Please follow these steps:
1. Connect one computer directly to your router.
2. Access the setup page of the router using the routerâ€™s IP address on the address bar of your Internet browser. The default routerâ€™ IP address is 192.168.1.1. Just leave the username blank and type admin for the password. If you have changed the routerâ€™s password during the initial setup, you may use that password. If the router doesnâ€™t accept the admin as well as your password, try to reset the router for 5 seconds.
3. Under Setup tab, locate MTU.
4. Set MTU to enable then enter 1300 on the size field.
5. Click on Save Settings then click Continue.
6. Click on the Wireless tab. Change the SSID if it is still linksys, change it to your family name to avoid network interference.
7. Change the channel to 11.
8. Make sure that your SSID Broadcast is enabled.
9. Click on Save Settings.
10. Shut down everything for 2 minutes.
11. Power on starting from the modem then the router and lastly your PC."
Stll i get disconnection problems which i emailed her back and now hoping to get a reply.
So if anyone can give it a try and see if it works, otherwise im gonna giveup and just return the **bleep** thing!
**bleep**!
I was having the same problem.
WHAT THE LADY SAID WORKED!! I GOT MY CONNECTION BACK, SIGNAL STRENGTH AND CONNECTION AT 100% AND STAYING!!!!!
I would suggest everyone give the instructions above a try cause it seems to work.
But even thought it did work, technical support you guys need to reaize this is a issue and a problem and needs to be resolved.
As my connection kept coming in and out I was watching the signal strength and it kept going from Good to Poor and back to Good and on and on and on. AND MY ROUTER IS ONLY 30FT FROM MY WIRELESS COMPUTER. THIS NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED!
Thank you.

WRT54G Wireless Vista intermittent connection

I have had a wireless WRT54G ver.6 for 2 years (never updated firmware or any else). Never problems connecting & staying on internet with wireless Dell XP laptops or desktops I have. But a new Dell w/Vista desktop w/wireless, set-up 1 month ago, connects OK, strong signal, but disconnects after 5 - 30 minutes, usually within 10 minutes. Anyone have this problem and / or quick non-technically exhaustive solution??

As you are using the router from very long time ... it required update ....
Download the latest software from http://linksys.com/download ...
After upgrade reset & reconfigure the router ....
See if it works ...

Linksys WRT54GS Wireless Router keeps disconnected

Hi, My wireless router WRT54GS keeps on disconnecting without any reason. I have also changed the channel to 11 but still the same issue. It connects for 1 minute and then it stops working even though the signal says "excellent strength" and all the bars are green.

Hmm. I seem to be having a similar problem (see my thread). Check the cable that is pulugged into the back of the computer. That is where my problem lies. The computer doesn't seem to be reading it. If i get some info, ill help you.
EDIT:You have to check the IP address of the computer connected to router. If you are getting an IP of 169.254.x.x, then the router might be defective.

Yahoo Webcam and WRT54G v5 anyone having disconnect problems?

Hi all..i have the WRT54G v5 router hooked up to my cable modem.
When ever i use my web cam it will stay connected for a little bit but then just disconnect and reconnect and its not only on one computer it happens to another computer hooked up....one is wired one is wireless....i have added the port trigger in the router for yahoo's ports inbound and outbound 5100 and it still does it,,,,my next step to eliminate that its the router doing it is to just have one computer running off the modem itself and try it i will do that soon but what i was wondering is if anyone else has had this problem or is having this problem rite now and has any suggestions on whats going on?
Thanks alot guys and gals.

Hi everyone.. Im just a newbie here.. just got a question as well.. what if im having the opposite problem.. I cant connect to Yahoo Webcam Service..
I have followed the port trigger and port forward and aeverything else.. but my webcam still doesnt wanna broadcast.. I know the webcam is working fine..
I believe the problem started occuring when i started using terminal services, I tried logging on to my pc remotely (from work) and ever since then webcam broadcast just doesnt wanna connect..

Help!!! Broadband Intermittently Disconnects

Please someone cast a eye on these figures and tell me if anything is wrong please???
Our broadband randomly disconnects sometimes upto 10 times a night only for a brief time of say 10-30 seconds but enough to kick my wife and me off off xbox live or our laptops go to local only connection! The broadband light on the HH3 does not even go out, but sometimes the conection screen comes on our laptops showing the BB light flashing. I have phoned tech support in india (even spoke to George Michael lol) i've had the cover plate removed several times and had a BT engineer change it for a new one with seperate ADSL and phone sockets. Our profile has been reset and if the speed is right below im well pleased. it's just these **bleep** disconnections thats driving me mad. We have another engineer comming tomorrow who according to my last contact is going to fix the problem once and for all!! It's not a HH3 problem as this has happened on a Dratek Vigor, Belkin N300 and a Belkin N600. Brought the HH3 on recomendation from a BT tech support agent who said they could not help me anymore as they only train on HH's!!!!
This has been ongoing for six month now and im rather annoyed.
On the troubleshooting page on every disconnect is logged on the WAN. I've printed this off for the engineer, any ideas where else I can direct him!!! the previous chap tested everything with his kit and found no fault! five mins after he left it went again!

Time capsule intermittently disconnects

I have an intermittent problem with my time capsule. I will be working on my Imac G5 and the mail or safari will not load. The connection my then connect to a neighbors network and then I can continue working. Funny thing is that I am still connect with my ipod touch (inches from my mac) and it is working flawlessly. Sometimes I have to log into the Join other Networks for it to find it again.
Part 2, The opposite often occurs, Somethings the imac can see the network perfectly and the ipod does not. The ipod can not find the network even if I carry the ipod to within inches to the time capsule
I have restarted the time capsule several times. the green light is always on, My software is all up to date, My connections strength are always strong on both device when they are working.
Is the time capsule defective?

Gnorm,
*_Time Capsule Weak Signal Strength_*
Forgive the size of the post, but the suggestions below have helped others with similar issues. Try each topic individually and see if things improve, If not move on to the next one.
*Keep the Time Capsule Cool*
Some posters have observed that when they positioned the Time Capsule for better ventilation and cooling, their network connectivity issues resolved themselves. Also avoid locating the devise within poorly ventilated cabinets or piling items around or on top of it.
*Time Capsule Orientation*
While the location you chose to setup your Time Capsule may be acceptable, but the direction it is oriented can have an effect on signal strength. It appears that the signal of the Time Capsule does not radiate equally from all sides of the devise.
The antennas within the devise are positioned along the 3 smooth sides. That is, there is no antenna on the side bearing the ports and cables. As a result, position the devise with the ports and cables AWAY from the direction of most of the clients that will be connecting to it.
*Cordless Phones*
Some users have discovered that the cordless phones they have in the home occupy or are near the same bandwidth as their wireless network (2.4Ghz or 5Ghz). Try temporarily disabling the handsets and their bases and see if network connectivity improves. If so you may need to change the channel that the phone uses or purchase phones that occupy a different bandwidth.
*Preferred Networks & Airport Services*
You may be experiencing interference from other networks in your neighborhood. When you click the Airport menu are there other networks listed other than your own?
If so, is your network at the top of the list? It should be.
Go to System Preferences --> Network --> Select Airport on the left.
Click "Advanced". In the “Airport” tab note the various local wireless networks that Airport detects. Is the network you prefer to connect to at the top of the list? If not drag it to the top. Are there other networks you never intend to connect to (an old work network, or a neighbors network)? Then highlight them and click the "-" button.
Make sure “Remember any network this computer has joined” is checked.
Click "OK".
For "Network Name" be sure your network is selected and then click "Apply".
Is Airport (wireless) your primary means of connecting to your network? If so, is Airport at the top of the list of services on the left? It should be.
Click the small “Gear” button at the bottom of the window and select “Set Service Order”.
Now drag Airport to the top of the list.
Click “OK”. Click “Apply”.
Now see if network connectivity has improved.
*Transmit Power & Wide Channels*
If you are using the 802.11n only (5GHz) radio mode, you can also select to use wide channels, which provide higher data throughput in your network.
Launch Airport Utility
Select your Time Capsule on the left.
Click “Manual Setup”.
Select “Airport” in the toolbar.
Click the “Wireless” tab.
Click “Wireless Options...” at the bottom of the window.
Adjust the “Transmit Power” to 100%.
Put a check mark in the box labeled “Use Wide Channels”. (If you are using a 802.11a/b/g (2.4GHz) radio mode then select “Interference Robustness”)
Click “Done”.
Click “Update” in the lower right hand corner.
Wait for the Time Capsule to restart and then see if your network speeds improve.
Let us know if any of the above helped improve your situation.
Cheers!

Intermittent disconnects

over the past couple of weeks, we have had fios internet disconnect for no apparent reason. then i go in and click on it and it re-connects.
we ordered a movie on demand and it lost connectivity 3 times. had to go back in to on demand and reconnect and then fast forward to our place in the the movie.
please let me know if there is a reason for this and something we need to request through tech support.

Intermittent disconnections!!

Hi I have had a quick read through and cannot see the problem answered and fact the only similar problem back in Jan this year never got resolved so here goes
I can use the internet almost at any time however at random the internet can disconnect and reconnect and sometimes repeat this as often as 5 times in a few minutes
I read an associated post re comments on noise (the poster had low noise mine is higher)
It appears that only the broadband is temporarily disconnected and can sometimes reconnect in seconds instead 30-60 seconds
Im using a bt HH black version-with no BT suppied phones attached

Now only around 2 years back BT visited and as the BT box was old the engineer re run the BT cable in to a connection point, from here new cable to master socket with a built in filter(2 socket outlet) a spur was taken from the bt line (not filter) in new cable to around 5-6 meters to my office where my router is and just 2 days back I changed this filter...just in case.
So all cables are new'ish and filters are new.
The problem has only become noticeable in the last month, maybe slightly less
I'm not keen on talking to the indian help desk, who ask me to disconnect and reconnect and when you call back the new operator says disconnect and reconnect, unless my problem is on their script they dont know.
What can i do to reduce noise?
The router has been placed at the master with no difference, in regards to electrical interferance it is roughly 1.5m metres from my PC through a few pieces of wood...any further it would not be in my office and therefore wireless...besides its been working fine for many years
When we boot up laptops wireless works ok
Most notible as I get the IE screen from BT saying no broadband connection and if playing MOH i also get kicked off...which bugged me as i never knew why, but now I know why

WRT54G V8.2 Wireless disconnecting

Hello, I have recently updated my firmware for my router and ever since (might be a coincidence or not) my wireless will disconnect and my router's page is also unaccessable at that point. I can still see my wireless network and when I attempt to connect it just stays on connecting for a long time.
I have another computer connected by wire and this computer never loses connection. When my wireless stops working that wired computer can no longer access the router home page either.
The whole problem is quickly fixed by unplugging my router (power cord) and replugging. At that point everything returns to normal for a while (6-7 hours possibly more or less). It starts all over by my wireless disconnecting.
Securities I have setup:
My laptop is quite old so the only wireless protection I can offer is WEP128 (Which is enabled)
I also have MAC filters on the wireless only enabling computers with a MAC address in the list to connect to the router.
Please help not sure what the problem is and it is getting a little annoying.
Thanks

You need to hard reset your router for 1 minute...
Press and hold the reset button for 1 minute...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 1 minute and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...Also do the Advance Wireless Settings...
On the router set-up click on Wireless tab and change the channel to 11 and save the settings...
Click on the subtab "Advanced Wireless settings"
Change the Beacon Interval to 75...
Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304...
Change the RTS Threshold to 2307 and click on "Save Settings"...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...If you still face the same problem you should get your router replaced...

Ssh experiencing intermittent disconnects

Im not sure if this is a gateway problem or my ssh configuration. I have a fresh install of arch Linux that i am using to build an HTPC with. I do most of my work through putty since the arch box is connected to our tv . Im using a netctl profile to connect to our LAN with static ip addressing. The problem is that I experience random disconnects while using ssh. Here are the facts:
1) ssh will always work right after I reboot the arch box
2) after a random amount of time i will loose the ability to login to the arch system with putty, or will be kicked off if i am in the middle of a session.
3) After waiting for a random amount of time i will eventually regain the ability to login via putty
4) during these disconnects, my router configuration page will report that my arch box is "offline" however if i login to my HTPC i am still able to ping servers, use pacman to install packages, etc...
If anyone has any idea whats goin on here or can point me in the rite direction i would really appreciate it. I must admit this is my first time posting on any forum. If my description of the problem is not adequate please let me know.

There are other devices on my network but i only use my laptop + putty to login to my HTPC. We are using a westell modem/router. Every device on the network gets its ip address via dhcp except my HTPC which i have manually configured with a static ip address. I think its worth noting that it was originally configured with dhcp but i changed it to static to see if it would fix the problem. Pinging the HTPC during an outage yields "destination host unreachable". Journalctl -le doesn't return any related info during these outages either.
