WRT54G v5.1 drops WPA connections

Hello,
I have a WRT54G v5.1 which will not establish a reliable WPA or WPA2 connection. I have five different computers, all with different variations of hardware and operating system, and in each case the behaviour is the same: With WEP encryption everything works perfectly, whereas with WPA the connection is made but then drops almost immediately. Usually the connection lasts long enough to load the router's configuration page or send a ping, so I know passwords etc are correct.
So far I've tried the following, but with no luck or change in behaviour:
- Reset the router to factory settings and created a new newtork with a new SSID
- Updated the router's firmware to the latest v1.02.7
- Switched between WPA-TKIP and WPA2-AES encryption
- Set wireless mode to 'G only'
Any ideas gratefully received.
Tim

Well, before putting the acursed router into the log-splitter, I tried installing the free firmware from the DD-WRT project. Not recommended for the WRT54G v5.1, nontheless it appears to work perfectly. Talk about using a hammer to crack a nut.
I'm at a loss to explain why it would not work with the manufacturer's firmware. Maybe I (and Linksys support) missed something subtle, but my home network is extremely simple with nothing beyond the most basic configuration. I'm in a sparsely populated area away from other networks which might interfere.
Alternatively, I wonder if the v5.1 was a short-lived series with a hardware bug Linksys was unable to correct, but which does not affect the DD-WRT firmware. Ho hum.
Now, how do I give myself kudos for solving my own problem?

OS X 10.4.11 dropping WPA connection

Hi All,
I'm trying to revive this thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=670521&start=0&tstart=0 because I'm having this same exact problem with 10.4.11. My wireless airport extreme client on my Macbook Pro keeps dropping connection to my D-Link DGL-4300 and my ZyXEL P-334WT. I’m using WPA-PSK TKIP encryption on the wireless 802.11g protocol. It seems that every time WPA rekeys my connection is dropped and I have to disable and enable my wireless interface to get back on my wireless AP. Yes, I have tried two separate wireless routers to no avail! I called Apple support and they basically said I'm S.O.L. because I'm not using an Airport base station. My case ID is 88582115. I've got the general conversation on my blog (too much to post here) http://www.blogmynog.com/2007/12/05/apple-hold-music-is-gangster/.
Can anyone offer any insight on how to resolve this issue?
Thank You,
Stephen

Another thing to possibly ponder is Standards!
While there are "Standards", there doesn't seem to be complete agreement as to the meaning/interpretation of the "Standards". Also, everybody trying to get product to market, almost always before the "Standards" are finalized doesn't help much.
One case I investigated rather far was a Router that worked fine with one OS, but quit working for another OS when that other OS tightened up it's Security & Standards compliance! And if you're making a Router and it isn't compliant, you darned sure are going to figure out a workaround for the 90% market Share before it gets too far out the door!

WRT54GS ver 6 drops connection to cpu running XP

I have a WRT54GS ver6 that intermittently drops the connection with the CPU running XP. If I power down the router everything works fine for a couple of days and then it drops the connecion again.
Is there a firmware update that could fix this?

yes...try upgrading / reflashing the router's firmware ... after the firmware upgrade , reset and reconfigure the router..

WRT54GS v1.0 Drops Connection under Vista, Fix?

Since an upgrade to vista my router has been droping the internet connection at random times, and quite frequently. Sometimes i will be connected for hours, other times it will drop every 5 minutes. This problem did not exist under XP, nor does the net cut out on other XP based machines. Occasionally it will drop the connection, and not see any networks (there are several in my area). Other times it will show my network with the name "Unnamed Network" and not allow me to connect to it. I'm thinking there is an issue with Vista autodetecting the network? Went to look for the latest firmware, but seems linksys is almost a year behind since their last release (i updated anyways). Also why is there no tech support email clearly posted on their site to address them with this question? Thanks for any help you can offer.

Upon further review, every time my internet cuts out on my Vista laptop, it is also cutting out on my wife's XP laptop. The internet does NOT drop on my wired XP machine. They both drop at the same time, what does this indicate? Again this is new since adding a vista computer to the network, this router has been rock solid for well over a year otherwise.
I also went through tech support (before i realized all wireless was dropping at the same time) and they confirmed this router should work with Vista.
Is it just bad luck my router went bad at the same time i installed Vista? Or is Vista somehow affecting this? And to the above poster, thanks for the advice, but i swapped out my internal Intel 3945ABG adapter with my other laptop (same adapter of course) and it did not change anything. I'm led to believe this is Vista borking it, or my router just went/is going bad?
Anyone?

WRT54G keeps dropping wireless connections

Wired connection to the router works fine. But it drops all the wireless devices (PC, phone, tablet) multiple times each day, sometimes only 30-60 minutes after reconnecting. Power cycling the router "fixes" the router and allows reconnection. There are 2 topics in the FAQ section that looked helpful:
Getting poor or no signal from a wireless router
Top causes of dropping wireless connection on a Linksys router
but clicking on those does not bring up anything. Anyone know where to find those 2 FAQs? Any other ideas for what might be causing this?

Hi. You may need to do firmware upgrade on your router as is the case these days for legacy routers. What is the hardware version by the way? You can find it at the bottom of the router right after the tiny print of the model. Access homesupport.cisco.com and search for the model. When you get the router's page click downloads below support sections and from there you have to select the hardware version, once you do that you will see the firmware version for the said hardware version. Usually it is a bin file when you save it and you can open that one on the router's page. Once you access your router's page go to Administration and click Firmware Upgrade and select the file you downloaded from the website. Make sure that you do this upgrade with a computer plugged-in to the router. When upgrade is done, you do a 30-second reset and unplug/replug the router also for 30 seconds. You may refer to this link http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=80&vw=1&articleid=4030.
As for the link for Getting poor or no signal from a wireless router, I found this one from Cisco's public kb site but not able to for the other one but I believe they are related.
http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=d9a3b1b2039741948a2365b053a93ea8_3759.xml&pid=80&r...
Try to change channels as well on your router: you can try 1,3,6,9. Make sure the router is placed at least 3 feet above ground and check the antenna as well if it is still okay.

Urgent! T420 with N6205 keeps dropping wireless connection and cannot recover

Hello everyone,
I bought my T420 model with N6205 network card last December, since then, the wireless connection never functions well. Here's the problem(it happens in my apartment):
Every once in a while (normally within four to five days), my wireless connection drops automatically. It would first appear as no connection and it'll try to reconnect, then it appears as successful connected for 5 to 10 seconds(but definitely no internet access), and it'll drop the connection completely again, then automatically repeat :reconnect, drop,reconnect, drop ... never stops. Though I can still use cable to connect to my router to have internet access.
This problem occurs to none of my smartphones, ipad, ipod touch, my old laptop and my roomates' wireless devices under the same wirless environment. They always have solid wireless connection.
Of course, regular approaches have been taken trying to solve the problem:
1. manually disable wireless functionality on my T420, and enable it again
failed
2. reboot computer
failed
3. go to power manager and turn PCI express off
failed
4. uncheck allow the wireless LAN radio to be turned off when inactive
failed
5.updated to the latest driver through lenovo
failed
6. restart router
successful
So it may be that I've got a bad router? This is why I didn't post my problem in the first place, since I was hoping it may disappear with other routers.
I changed to a new router, the problem persists.
There's no way I can restart the router every time when my laptop looses connection, it'll affect the other users.
Based on the description of my problem, I believe there's a great chance there's something wrong with my T420 rather than with my router.
Is there anybody who can help me with this?
Can lenovo staff see this post?
Any suggestion about who I should turn to?
Thanks a lot.

What security mode are you using.
WPA or WPA2? You could change the router to WPA only and see if that helps. I have see some portable devices that don't negotiate the protcol properly but never a notebook. If you have Bluetooth turn it off. It seems to affect my 1x1.
I have the 1x1 card and it pretty bad connecting at 24 to 48 Mbps only with a good signal. I don't know why Realtek is used in a Business class notebook. Maybe some others can add what they have and is working 100%.

Intermittent Wireless Connection, Dropping Wireless Connection

I am asking this in hopes of finding at least some way to diagnose my problem and hopefully eventually solving it. My wireless connection currently drops at varying amounts of time. Sometimes I can go 20mins others merely 5mins. The Airport reads that I am still connected and have a strong connection but when I try to navigate to a page with the browser (either firefox or safari) it merely times out after trying to load the page for up to a few minutes. I have changed the channel and frequency of my router (first router I tried was a Trendnet TEW-432BRP) and I have no cordless phones or other possible wireless obstructions. (I do have a very very infrequently used microwave but being that it's on the other side of the house and I can be sitting next to the router I doubt this is the culprit)
Then I tried changing routers to a Belkin N1 Vision router. Same issues. Additionaly worth noting all other PC's and linux machines on my network (about 4-5 other computers) all work just fine with out dropping their connections (with both routers).
Then I brought my original machine (a white macbook less than a year old) into the apple store, thinking at this point it was a hardware problem with my machine. They the replaced the airport card twice and the logicboard once. Eventually decideing that they should just replace the whole machine. Now with my new unibody I thought I had finally illeviated the problem but now I am having the same issues with an intermittent connection again.
If I turn off the Airport card and turn it back on again usually it will reconnect and allow me to browse again. But not always. The odd part is that generally when using another program that accesses the net the connection does not seem to be interrupted (such as with bit torrent). Very odd.
Anyway I tried using my computer at a friends house with the same trendnet router (his router but same model) and still the connection issues persist. Any ideas on what I can do or try to at least even begin to understand why this is happening would be helpful. I want very much to get to the bottom of this. Thanks for your help.

You didn't get the Apple Store to replace a white MacBook with a unibody?!
Anyhow - the connection problems could easily relate to an incompatibility between OS X and the router in question. Or it could simply be a setting on the router that isn't working well. To assist in the diagnosis... can you please supply:
1) The security mode of the router? (WEP or WPA/WPA2 and AES or TKIP).
2) The network mode (G/N)?
3) The signal strength as reported by Airport (RSSI)
You can get most of this information (all except the security mode) by holding the option key down whilst clicking on the Airport icon in Finder. For the security setting you can go to your routers configuration screen (or you can get it from the command line).
Cheers,
Rodney

I changed my WRT54G security settings from WPA to WEP

I changed my WRT54G security settings from WPA to WEP and now one of my latops (Dell 5100) will not connect wirelessly. It is using a linksys wireless-B notebook adapter. I am at a loss at how to reconnect this to my wireless network.

Go to the setup page of the router on the wired computer and click on the Wireless tab,check the network name(SSID),change the Wireless Channel to 11-2.462 GHz,Keep the SSID broadcast enable and click on save settings...Click on the subtab Wireless Security and change the Security mode to WEP or WPA as per your requirement.If you are using WEP then,note down the KEY1 as the network key(case sensitive)...
Now,on the laptops,delete the preferred network and then,try to connect the Wireless Network.

WRT120N - Dropping wired connection frequently

Today alone I have dropped connection 6 times. I recently purchased this router because I thought my WRT54G was kicking on its last leg. It would dropped connections every 45 minutes it seemed.
Now I am experiencing the same issues with this router which is brand new. I have tried power cycling the modem and router. I have made new cables for my devices I am connecting (PS3, PC, DirecTV receiver) I haven't tested things with just going with the modem seperately for security reasons, but I have contacted my ISP to see if anything was wrong with the modem. They have told me that nothing is showing up on there end.
What else could be causing this?

I changed the setting and I am still getting drops in connections while on the internet and PS3. Since the morning of the 9/10/09 up until today, I have dropped 14 connections. Though they only last maybe a second or two, it is still inconvinient.
This happened frequently while trying to play my PS3 online, so I disconnected from the router and plugged the PS3 straight into the modem. I didnt have any issues while playing my PS3. I plugged the modem back into the router and got on the computer for a few hours and the dropped connections started again.
I am honestly at a lost with this.

IPad randomly dropping wifi connection

I have seen quite a few posts regarding iPad dropping wifi connection. I have tried all the usual reboot router, updates, etc but the issue remains.
I need to keep switching wifi off then on again to re connect?
Does anyone have any better ideas than waiting for a bug fix?
Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply.
I have not had this issue outside of my home wifi so I suppose this points to a router issue.
When I read that others have had the same issue I presumed it was a bug.
"Updates" does mean router firmware updates.
I am using WPA2-PSK security but have tried WEP and WPA-PSK setting with the same result.
The router is a Netgear RangeMax model DG834PN
It is in g&b mode( whatever that means)
I appreciate your comments.

there are security levels for wpa connection. such as low- normal - high ( 64 bit -128 bit -256 bit )
if you select 64 bit secure method, you need to enter 8 characters for password. if you enter 7 and save and exit, some computers can connect but some not. make sure you have 8- 16- 32 characters and entered correctly.
to check if it's password issue, disable the secure connection and try again. if it doesn't work, we can try some other solutions.

Problem with Dropped Internet Connections on AE/Macbook

I have a dual band Airport Extreme connected to Comcast Cable. I use a first generation Macbook to access the airport. The problem is that I keep on getting dropped Internet connections. The signal strength is shown at the top rhs of the screen as being full strength (4 bars).
If I swap out the router for a Linksys WRT54G, running DD-WRT, the combination works perfectly without any dropped Internet connections. Also, If I connect the Linksys to the AE with the Linksys acting as a wireless client repeating the signal, then I can connect the Macbook to the Linksys again without any dropped internet connections.
There is something about the Macbook connecting directly to the AE. It happens intemittantly but probably multiple times a day and is very inconvenient. The only way to get it back is to reboot the router or stop/start the aiport on the Macbook.
I have tried just about every possible setup on the AE including splitting the 2.4 and 5Ghz radios into two separate ssid's and changing the channels. I am using the latest AE firmware. I have also taken the AE back to the Apple store and they have swapped it for a new one.
I dont get the same issues with my windows clients or my ipad (although i have experienced issues while steaming video - but I think that may be a different issue).
Any suggestions/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Use the advice in this thread to investigate the signal and noise levels that the Mac sees:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2347845&start=1
What you may see if an increase in noise when the connection drops.
If that doesn't show anything useful, it might help to reset the connection settings on your Mac using these steps one at a time until the problem is resolved, recognizing that, depending on your problem, not all of these steps will make sense:
1) Use the AirPort menu bar item to turn AirPort off, then on again.
2) Try to select your Wi-Fi network from the AirPort menu.
3) In the Network panel of System Preferences delete the AirPort item from the left column, then add it back.
4) In the same panel as (3), define a new location and see if you can make that work.
5) In the same panel, select the AirPort connection item, click the "Advanced" button, select the "TCP/IP" tab, then click "Renew DHCP Lease". Note that the fix this step implements may be temporary.
6) In the folder /Library/Preferences ( _not_ <yourhomefolder>/Library/Preferences), move the folder SystemConfiguration onto the Desktop, then restart your computer. See if you can now make your AirPort connection work.
These steps may not help, but they'll only take a couple of minutes to try. Before you try these, if you have any special network settings on your Mac for things like DSL credentials, note all your network settings, because the latter steps will destroy them. If you got all the way to the last step, if things don't work any worse than before, you can trash the saved SystemConfiguration folder.

Airport keeps dropping xbox connection!

HI all, My son has an xbox 360 hooked up wireless to my airport extreme. We have security set to wpa/wpa2 personal. He gets in a xbox live no problem, then after a few minutes or so the xbox drops the connection. We also have other Mac's, a Wii, and a Playstation3 all hooked up with no problem. The funny thing is this just started about 2 weeks ago. We have done everything to try and resolve it including replacing his xbox with a new one under warranty. We even tried a direct wired hook up to the airport with no success. Does anyone have any idea's? I'm about to pull my hair out!

I did wire the xbox directly up to the modem, and that works, unfortunately I can't leave it like that because there is only one port on the modem. This proves that the issue is with airport and nothing else.

WRT54G v8 goes to "Local Connection"

A couple of times every day, my WRT54G Router drops my connection, and my Windows Vista computer (connected wirelessly) says that I'm connected locally, but not to the Internet. The connection also drops on my Ipod touch, but not on the Windows XP computer that is wired to the router and modem. I have already upgraded to the lastest firware and reset my router, can someone please help?
Message Edited by FlyHi on 03-13-2010 10:58 AM

On your Router setup page click on the Wireless tab and below change the Wireless Channel to 11-2.462GHz and click on Save Settings, Then you need to click on the Sub tab 'Advance Wireless Settings" and below Change the Beacon Interval to 75,Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304,Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 and Click on Save Settings...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...

Drop of connection

I would like to understand this dropped connection issue.
I have a wrt54g v5.
For the last several months I have experienced a loss of connection about once a week. It is now happening several times a day. My setup includes a Motorola Surfboard Modem into the Vonage WP2 Wired Router into the WRT54G in that order. I have tried the Vonage Router at the end of the line as well. Always the WRT54G will go off. Some times the WP2 will go off as well and I lose my dial tone.
The common remedy here seems to be a firmware upgrade.
Upgrade What? and Why?
Thanks
Harry
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Are you facing drop of connection issue on wired and wireless computer at the same time ?
To upgrade the firmware on the router follow this link.
