WRT54G v3 Wired Connection and Frequent Gaming Lag

I've already updated my firmware, disabled router firewall, set my MTU to 1365, switched on DMZ, and of course am wired to my router using an ethernet cord. I also tried different types of ethernet cords. I am running on cable internet w/ 8000 kbps connected directly to the modem. Sadly, when my modem and I are connected to my router, I drop to 2000 kbps and sometimes less than 500 kbps. I get 200+ ping in my Ventrilo server (I can barely talk), lagout in Warcraft 3, spike in CS 1.6, and download at a maximum speed of 200 kbps.
Other info
Computer Specs: 2GB of Ram, Intel Quad Core Q6600 @ 2.40GHz
Router: WRT54Gv3
Modem:Cable 8kbps/Sudden Link
I'm not running any other types of programs, I just reformatted and I have a couple of games, but do not run them in the background.

Disable any other Firewall Software on your computer...Also you can hard reset your router if you have not resetted it after the firmware upgrade...Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

Wrt54g, no wired connection, vista? update goblin?

Hi, I have linksys router WRT54G version 6.....its wired into my desktop and i have a wireless link to my laptop, and even though I got a new computer with windows vista home premiun a week ago, its been working fine for that week......until today,nov 14, when windows did an automatic update and install and automatically restarted my computer. since then the router doesn't work for my wired connection to my desktop, it links up with the network but not the internet....i havent' checked my laptop yet, probably the same.....I disconnected from my router and hooked directly into my modem to scour the internet for help...its all a blur but i did a hard reset on my router, thinking , i'll just reset it from scratch....my installation disk asks me for a password at the last second for some reason, don't remember that the first time, don't know what it could be either, i tried admin and left if blank,nothing, just kept restarting the installation. can't get to http://192.168.1.1/. either...... any ideas? thanks

Connect the computer to the router using Ethernet cable ..... check the LAN IP ...... if getting any valid Ip in the range of 192.168.1.1 ....try to ping the gateway address
If geting any reply try opening set up page of rotuer .....
If you are not getting any valid Ip .....do power cycle for 1 minute ....then once again check the Ip ....
If still it is showing invalid Ip ...... unplug the modem from router ...leave the computer connected to router & reset the rotuer for 20-30 seconds ......
While holding the reset unplug the power cable ...wait for 10 seconds ...plug back the power cable & release the reset ....
Now once again check if getting any valid LAN ip address .....

Wrt54g - no wired connection - cannot find ethernet port upon setup, cannot get wired connection

I've had my wrt54g router for a little over 1 year. I had to get support to set up the router initially b/c it could not find the ethernet port when I tried to set it up initially. I am past that date and recently had to move the router and the PC. When I tried to redo the setup same issue - i upgraded the firmware and same issue. If i uplug the router and plug the cable directly from the cable modem into my pc, everything works well, but when i try to set up a wireless connection, the wired connection goes down, but the wireless connection works and i cannot get the wired connection back up. i am a novice with the device, so any detailed help in trouble shooting the problem and getting me back up on both a wired and wireless basis would be appreciated.

As you upgraded the router's firmware,I would suggest you to reset the router for 30 seconds and configure the router from the scratch.Make sure that the Modem is connected to the router on the internet port and the computer to the router on the ethernet port.
Also check the ip address you are getting on the computer hardwired to the router...Click Start >> All Programs >> Accessories >> Command Prompt...A black box will appear(Command Prompt)...In the Command Prompt window type ipconfig and press 'Enter'...Look for Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection IP Address , Subnet Mask and Default Gateway...
IP Address should be 192.168.1.x, Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1 (assuming your router is 192.168.1.1)...If you get the above mentioned IP Address, Subnet and Gateway Address then you should ping the Gateway, type ping 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...If it gives you request timed out then disable any firewalls, security softwares on the computer...
If you get 4 replies then,try to open the setup page..

HP Color LaserJet CP2025dn Printer Wired Connectivity and have USB simultaneously?

Hello to all;
Thank you in advance.
I have a HP Color LaserJet CP2025dn Printer.
The question, can I use ethernet connection and have USB simultaneously? Ethernet is faster, right?
Currently, I have the printer connected to network via Ethernet Wired Connectivity through an Apple Aiirport Extreme base station. I have several Mac's all operating under 10.9.1, and two PC's (one is WIN XP, and the other WIN 8.1), which all operate fine with 2008 wired/wireless technology. I know what a dinosour. I am in the process of upgrading the household to current wireless technology with a NetGear AC1900 Nighthawk Smart WiFi Router (Model: R7000), 802.11ac Dual Band Gigabit, with two USB ports ((1) 2.0 and (1) 3.0) . I connected the printer directly into the Netgrar router, and it wouldn't print, ran setup through the Mac and Win computers and still wouldnt pring. One of the reasons that sold me on the Netgear router was the ReadySHARE® USB access—Wirelessly access & share. In order for me to utilize the ReadySHARE® feature is to connect via a USB cable. Sob story, the longest USB cable off the shelf usually 16", and to reach where the printer is now, I need @25-28 feet of cable. Is ther a maximum length of USB that I can use with out suffering loss of speed/functionality?
Again thank you for your time

I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/

WRT54G V8 wired connection recently got very slow. HELP!

Hello, I have a WRT54G V8.0 wireless router. I bought it about 3 months ago, and it was working just fine. But on the last coupe of days, the connection speed became really slow.
The setup is as follow: 2 PCs connected directly by wire, and one connected through the wireless connection. All three of them use Windows XP.
I connected the modem directly to one of the PCs and speed improves a lot. Then I connected only that PC through the router (disabling the wireless connection) and speed goes down again, so I'm pretty sure it's the router.
I did some testing using the speedtest.net website and, with the modem directly connected to the PC, I get 1024 Kbps (my connection) all around the world, but with the router on, connection speed drops to 200-400 Kbps depending on how far the test server is located. I already had the latest firmware upgrade (8.0.0.5) and I've reseted the router back to factory settings, but speed still really slow.
I'm not using any firewall on neither of the PCs, except for Windows XP default firewall.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Solved!
Go to Solution.

As you have tried all the possible settings on your router to improve the speed. I think it could be the problem with the router's firmware. May be your can do is, Re-Flash the firmware on your router, once the firmware is upgraded 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...

New WRT54G loosing wired connections

I have a new WRT54G v 8.0 router that continues to lose it's connections, both wired and wireless. The cable modem stays connected, as I only have to reset the Linksys router to reestablish connectivity. I am using the latest firmware from a default router configuration (I did not pull in a saved config). I see others with the same issue. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the reply, but as the original post from my notes, I have already upgraded to the latest firmware, which did not resolve the issue. All machines lose connection, wired and wireless. I have at least 6 various media center, laptop and desktops, vista, linux, and XP that lose connection. Therefore, it is not system specific.

EA 3500 dropping wired connection when online gaming

I just had Comcast setup my internet and it is really fast. 30 down, 10 up, 40 ping, my connection to my computer (wireless) is very fast and my online gaming (wired) is not laggy at all.
The problem lies with the connection dropping when I am online gaming. I connected directly to the modem and there's no problem at all. I connect to my Linksys EA3500 and once I start playing in an online game, I disconnect from Xbox Live and am dropped from the game... anywhere from right away until about 10-15 minutes into the game. This is the only time where my connection falters at all, otherwise it is great. But I play online a lot, and competitively, so I obviously need a stable connection.
I have not had this issue with my previous ISP in New York, Time Warner and that connection was much worse. I'm thinking it must be a setting on the router that is causing this, but I can't pinpoint what. I tried automatic AND static connections from my xbox to the router. On the static connection, I even put a DMZ on it, but to no avail. What is causing this hiccup in the connection?
Any suggestions would be great, please and thanks!!

Are you already using the Linksys Smart Wifi? Set up media prioritization in the router and see if that will improve the connection with the xbox. Is the connection intermittent with other devices? Is there like a specific time in the day where your connection will drop?

Poor internet connection and frequent router restarts

I have been experiencing frequent issues with my Internet service over the last 2 months. When it first started I had to reset my router 4-6 times a day. Otherwise I would have a strong wireless signal but no Internet access. I changed the automatic channel selection to a lower channel and it seemed to be fine for about 2 weeks. I figured that I was getting some sort of interference. Now I have noticed that the problem has returned. I also have noticed much slower speeds.
Does anyone have any ideas? Should I ask for a replacement router? It seems that there are many similar issues posted on the forums with few successful results.
Thanks for the help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Gotcha. So since it appears to only be Wireless, definitely consider changing the channel again. If other routers have Auto Channel selection on, they may be "stopping by" and using the same channel once again that you are using. I recommend using Vistumbler or InSSIDer to scan for Wi-Fi networks nearby you and choosing channels 1, 6, or 11, whichever has less networks on it to use. Some folks have found that using the other channels I did not mention have helped in some circumstances. Whatever you do though, keep the auto channel selection disabled since that has been found to be a source of disconnects itself.
If no amount of changing the channel helps but Wired access remains rock solid, then I would start to consider any devices you may have added onto your network since the program began, and perhaps software updates too if you have any tablets or smartphones on the network. If nothing has changed since the problem began, then it doesn't hurt to ask for another Wireless router from Verizon to replace your current, possibly problematic router.
I've seen in some cases too where WEP and WPA security have caused issues with certain devices when used which have caused disconnects. It wouldn't hurt to try moving to WPA2 security if it's available in your router to see if that helps since most newer devices work quite well with it, not to mention the higher level of security.
if nothing is working, then there's a good chance there is a "hidden interferer" in the mix. These could include any devices you or your neighbors might have set up such as Wireless access ponts and repeaters, cordless phones, baby monitors, bluetooth devices, microwaves and so on that use the very crowded and noisy 2.4Ghz band.

Qos - giving wired connections priority over wireless connections

I have a WRT54G with revised firmware. I have one wireless connection and one wired connection. I'd like to set it up so that the wired connection uses the majority of the bandwidth. This way the resource intensive programs I use for work (CAD, GIS, etc accessing files remotely) will be guaranteed to have available more bandwith than my daughter on her laptop using IM, web cam and WOW-type game play. I don't mind her using these programs, but I have to make my work a priority.
It seems that I can shape traffic if each were a WIRED connection and also that the single QoS option for wireless will enhance WiFi MultiMedia. How can I assign a preference to the WIRED connection and provide a smaller but usable portion of bandwith to the wireless connection?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the input, although I still am a bit lost. I apologize if my questions appear repetitive.

What do you mean by "dedicate to that application?" Do you mean the apps I am trying to give bandwidth priority too? If so, how much of the 512 kbs upstream bandwidth do I enter here? How does this affect the wireless connections?
You wrote:
==========
You can provide priority to Devcie with MAC address & also the Etherent Port on four ports with different priority .....

Won't these only apply to the different ethernet ports and wired MAC addresses? I am trying to limit bandwith to the wireless side...

Under Wireless QoS .... enable the service

Won't this provide the wireless connection with more efficient throughput? How will this help me in limiting the bandwith allocated to the wireless connection?

Stab in the dark...the hal daemon should start dbus, but sometimes I've been encouraged to add the dbus DAEMON explicitly (before hal).
I don't really understand dbus too intimately, but I've come across situations where although dbus is running, I can't talk to it because the DBUS_SESSION_BUS_{ADDRESS,PID,WINDOWID} variables weren't visible in the environment I was working in. For instance, if dbus is started by xinitrc, and then some system-level daemon tries to talk to dbus, usually it fails for me, and I have to use some workaround.
Now I would expect wicd to be set up so that the ordinary user doesn't encounter any problems of this sort. On the other hand, the error you're getting does say that it's dbus communication which is failing. Perhaps you could try shutting down hald and dbus, open a terminal, su -, /etc/rc.d/dbus start, and then try from that command line to tell wicd to connect?

Multiple OS and 2 gaming consoles on a WRT110??

Okay, so I have a WRT110 Linksys Cisco router. Also, I have a Sony Vaio with Windows XP, a Dell Studio 1537 with Windows Vista, and a HP laptop with Windows 7. But thats not all, I also have a Xbox 360 (wired connection) and a Wii (wireless connection). So all in all I have three wireless connections along with two wired connections. Now my problem is when I have more than 2 wireless connections attempting to the one router, the internet goes to local only. This has been a problem even before the Wii and the HP laptop came in (both Christmas presents). I have tried many different troubleshooting methods to fix the problems such as resetting the router, disconnecting it, etc. yet I can't seem to fix the problem.
Any help with this ridiculously tedious problems is a giant help. I really, really need to get this problem fixed..please help.
Thanks.
(If i have left out any information out that you need to help me out let me know and ill do my best to help you help me

So apart from HP laptop and wii everything is working...?
Try to adjust the wireless settings on the router...Open the setup page by typing 192.168.1.1 in the address bar and Under the Wireless tab,Change the Radio Band to Standard-20MHz and change the Standard channel to 11-2.462GHz...Also Check the Security of the router...If you are using SSID "linksys" then,change it to some unique name.
Now,try to connect.

Wired connections failing

I have 3 wired connections and 2 wireless. 1 wired works fine as does the wireless however the other wired keep loosing connection (a network cable is disconnected) they used to work fine. is this a NAT thing- what can i do- any ideas

Not really. Try a known working ethernet cable. Try connecting it to a different port on the router.
The problem is most probably on the computer.

My home router is a WRV54G. After spending way too much time trying to get this thing to work using the wireless connection to the laptop I tried installing the client on my desktop and it worked. I then tried connecting the laptop to the wired connection and it worked also. It appears as though the wireless connection is the problem. I installed the newest version of the client I could find to another laptop and had the same problem on the wireless. Yet I can connect using TheGreenbow on another laptop to another VPN over this same wireless connection.
Wasting way too much time on this one... Any Ideas?

Do you mean you cant connect to the quick vpn using your wireless computer? And then if you connect the wireless laptop directly(hardwired) to the router , you can connect to the quick vpn? Have you tried other wireless computer to check if you can connect to your quick vpn?

VB Script to Disable Wireless LAN on Wired connection detection

We have few E6400, E4300, E6410 and E4310 in our environment which do not support
Disabled upon Wired Connect option. Is there a script which can disable the Wi Fi as soon as these machines are connected to LAN wired connection and enable the Wi Fi when Wired connection is not available. Please help it is very urgent.
If any script is available can it be run as a Windows service as we can't run it via GPO Start up script? Please help.

We have these same systems, so I also need a solution for this. I only have an E6420 available to me right now, and this model supports the "Disabled upon Wired Connect".
I believe that the best way to tackle this would be to look for the event(s) for the wired connection connecting and disconnecting. Looking at the event log on my system, I determined that the disconnecting event is Event Code 27, and the connecting event(s)
are 33 and 34.
With that information, I can setup a loop that waits and will only trigger on these events. Depending on the event ID, I then find the wireless network adapter and either enable or disable it accordingly.
The script below will need to be started during Windows startup or through a scheduled task to trigger at user logon or system startup. This is untested on the machines you have listed, I may be able to test this when I am back in the office next week.
The advantage of this script is that it is using event notifications as opposed to continuous loops (which are processor intensive). This script will simply sit idle in the background until the events are triggered, at which time the wireless adapter is
either enabled or disabled. The script will then wait for one of the events to occur again, and so on...
Please let me know how this works for you, like I said, I need this also and the more people testing it the better the solution will be.

Wired connections from different rooms to Infinity...

Any help much appreciated with this as I got a predictably vague answer from BT over the phone -
Currently I use BT Broadband (can only get a 2mb connection due to distance from exchange) and my set-up is like this -
In the living room is my netgear router/modem along with a PS3, Xbox360 and Wii connected to it through 3 of the 4 ethernet ports on the router.
The 4th ethernet port is connected to a 'home plug' which sends the broadband through my electrical wiring to another 'home plug' upstairs which is connected to my PC.
Is it possible to do this with BT Infinity?
I know a lot of folks slate BT but my 'wired' connection has always been reliable and never goes down. I'm adamant that I want the stability of a 'wired' connection and don't trust wireless. Am I being old-fashioned or anyone else prefer the 'wired' way?
Thanks in advance

I'd wait and see how your homeplugs perform before changing.... but if you do get a performance problem that's the first thing I would change based on other peoples experience.
And as Michael mentioned there has been quite a few people recently deciding to ditch the HomeHub3.

And even going for a combined replacement for the Openreach modem and HomeHub3 router (Scroll down the thread to message #10 for a nice picture of it wall mounted and you can see the redundant Openreach Modem just below).-
