WRT54G v7 wont connect to modem / internet

Hi all i have a problem here with a new unit of Linksys WRT54G v7 in Indonesia. Previously i have some other linksys products such as wag200g wre54g and wrt54gv1 without problem at Singapore. ----- so here is the problem= i bought one new unit of WRT54Gv7 and connect it to the modem to achieve wireless connectivity. before i connect both of them i've set different IP for the router so that it does not clash with the modem IP. however, unlike the v1 of WRT54G i cannot access the internet. not even the modem IP. also, the wireless connection likes to disconnect itself despite having excellent signal strength. when i call the shop back about this. they changed my WRT54G with a new exact product. ----- so i went home and try. unfortunately no difference in performance, i still cannot access both internet and modem. i can access to modem rarely though. i call back the shop, they told me to disable dhcp server and reset the router. no offence. but i've done every single details they asked me to do. in the end nothing happen. ----- i do lot of research on the net and many told me that WRT54Gv7 is the worst version of WRT54G currently. im not sure whether this is true or not. but i'll appreciate it if someone would share some lights here... im confused, is both of the product defective, or my settings are wrong. in fact i've plug the router to 3 different modems without luck. ----- thanks for reading and sorry for the bad english.

hmm thanks for the reply. but i got a trick to deal with the router, that is=== i disable dhcp server and connect the broadband cable to the number 1 instead of internet port. the shopguy told me and ridiculously this method works, although i know this is not the way it suppose to be...

I can't get FaceTime or iMessage to connect, I enter valid password (tested and works for Apple account) and it won't connect. I have checked all settings, upgrades iOS to 8.3 rebooted, changed Apple acount PW still wont connect. My internet connection is fine Safari works and I can access all sites. I have an iPad 2. Any help on this will be greatly appreciate. iPad 2, iOS 8.3

This is an ongoing problem as you will see by searching the forum.
Out of curiosity, do you have 2 step verification enabled? It was recently extended to include iMessage & FaceTime & I'm wondering if it might be causing some of the issues that some users are experiencing.

If your phone is offline, the ONLY way to find it is to look for it the old fashioned way. Your phone CANNOT be located electronically if it's offline.

My I-Touch Wont Connect To The Internet ! But My Bro's Did ! Help Please

I just bought this friggin thing a few hours ago, cause my idiot brother talked me into getting it. He successfully connected his to the internet. I just paid $230.00 for an 8gb Ipod-touch, and a warranty, and it wont connect to the internet. I put in my network, and the password, but it's not going through. But my brothers works fine. Anybody know what i can do ?

Yeah, they took down the post cause im not supposed to talk about it apparently. That was my brothers. His is working fine, he can go online, and do things, but for some reason i cant go on youtube, or safari, and cant connect to my main connection.
I was thinking, maybe since there is two I-Touch's, maybe only one can be connected, but im not to sure about that.

Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

WRT54G V5 wont connect to internet.

I am replacing a WRH54G with a WRT54G. First I unplugged everything and waited 5 minutes. Then I plugged my ethernet cord from the DSL modem into the WRT54G. Then I plugged in the DSL modem. I waited for the lights to stop blinking. Then I plugged in the WRT54G and waited for LEDs to show connection. Then I plugged the ethernet cord from the WRT54G to the computer. Then I turned on the computer. I was able to access the Interface for the WRT54G but I was not able to connect to the internet. I tried power cycling multiple times both the DSL modem and the WRT54G. I was unable to access the internet. Finally I plugged the WRH54G back in and everything worked fine. Any ideas as to why the old WRH54G can connect to the internet and the WRT54G cannot?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Actually in the above statement it still didn't work but ten minutes ago I did figure it out in large part to the helpful post. Because I wasn't getting IP addresses on my new router I wondered if some how they were getting stuck on my old router. So here is what I did. I had my old router connected. I logged into the old router and under status I clicked WAN IP release. Then I unplugged the old router. Next I plugged in the internet cord from the modem to the internet port of my new router and connected first ethernet port of the router to the computer. Then I plugged the new modem in. When I logged in I saw the router had grabbed the needed IP addresses. My internet is now up and running and thanks to the QOS feature on my new router I can watch youtube videos and be on my VOIP google phone at the same time with out garbling! The key was knowing that the problem was that my new router wasn't grabbing the IP addresses. That gave me the idea that somehow they were stuck on my old router. When I released them the new router grabbed new ones. I know that's not technically how it works but it solved the problem. In bullet form here were the solution steps.
Verizon DSL DHCP
1. Log into old router.
2. Click on Status
3. Click on WAN IP Release
4. Unplug all cords from old router.
5. Plug internet cord from modem into internet port on new router.
6. Plug ethernet cable into port 1 on the modem.
7. Connect ethernet from port 1 on the modem into the computer
8. Plug in power cord to the new router.
After I did those things the internet was working fine along with all my other stuff hooked up to the router. I logged into the new router, looked under status and saw the valid IP addresses and such. Thanks for the help. Hopefully someone kind find this if they ever have the same problem. I do wonder though how the IP addresses got stuck so to speak on the old router or rather why I had to a WAN IP release on the old router before the new router could get a valid IP address.

I just got a new macbook, and airport wont connect to my internet.

when i try to connect to my wireless internet, i put in the correct password, and my macbook says "connecting to network", but right after it says "network time out". i have tried taking off the password and it still does not connect. i have tried plugging in the ethernet cord and that seems to work, but it wont connect through airport.
can someone please help.

Omar 182 and Freeky Geek,
I hate to ask you to give more money to apple but I suggest you try an Airport Express.
I bought one today, brought it home, disabled my DSL modem's wireless, plugged in the Airport Express and connected an Enet cable from the DSL modem to APE.
Using the Airport Utility I downloaded the latest APE SW version; configured my wireless network with WPA2 security and had my MacBook AND Lenovo T60 working off the Internet in no time (OK, less than an hour).
In the past 5-6 years I have bought and configured 3 (or 4?) Linksys wireless routers and it has never been this straight forward.
If you can spare the $100(US) I recommend it,

WRT54GS will not connect to the internet...

Hello,
Having some issues with my router.. it's a model WRT54GS with firmware 7.2.. I'm not able to connect to the internet, whether it be wired or wireless. I can bring up the router just fine, but again no connectivity to the internet.
I tried changing the router local IP to 192.168.2.1 thinking that would fix the conflict.. but nothing seems to be working. I've cloned the MAC address and still nothing. I can connect straight to the modem and access the internet just fine, but when I try and connect through the modem, I can't bring up any web pages..
please help, I'll be glad to provide any info I can.

Sorry that last line should read:
I can connect straight to the modem and access the internet just fine, but when I try and connect to the internet via router -> modem, I can't bring up any web pages..

WRT54GS won't connect to the internet through my wired computer

So, basically, I've had this router for awhile now, it used to work just fine, and I haven't changed any settings or anything of that sort.
But suddenly it decides that it doesn't want to connect to the internet anymore. I've tried troubleshooting it like a hundred times now. I've looked at the FAQs for help but none of them seem to partain to my problem because they mostly talk about the wireless connection not working. Which I'm sure mine would if it could work on the wired connection.
There's no problems with my ISP, when I connect my computer directly to the modem my internet works fine but when I try to connect through the router it just doesnt work at all.
So, I really dont know what the problem is but could you please help me?
ALSO...the power light in the back blinks too and I've tried doing the firmware update but it didnt work..I might've had the wrong DNS Servers, but I didn't really know where to go to get that, the walkthrough didn't exactly make that clear to me.
In short, my internet wont connect when using the router. Help?

hi i have read your problem but i can be wrong... because suppose to be your system have working before. i think can exist conflicts between modem ip address and router ip address. first disconnect your modem from your router put in your internet explorer 192.168.1.1 and if your router has password live user name area in blank. and put in password area admin and push return. when appear the setup menu ( must to be in basic setup menu by default) search the text Local IP Address 192.168.1.1 and let change for 192.168.2.1 and do click in save settings button turn off your modem your router and connect everything and turn on them. check if you get access internet service.

My ipad wont connect to the internet server, help please!

My ipad suddenly wouldn't connect to the internet so I turned it off and on, checked the settings, there wasn't anything wrong and I could connect to my wifi from my phone in the same location. So I pressed reset and delete all data and settings. Now it wont reset and a message comes up that says "your ipad could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached:. Try connecting your ipad to itunes to activate it or try again in a couple of minutes." I cant connect to itunes because I cant get past this page in the reconfiguring process. Trying again and again will not work. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

By reseting and deleting all data and settings, you wiped your iPad clean of anything that was "yours". Put your iPad into recovery mode and restore from iTunes. Hopefully you have a backup there to recover all your data.

Itunes 10.5 wont connect to the internet

I recently updated to itunes 10.5. Until then, itunes would connect to the internet ok. now it wont connect at all.
I have read through other forum topics for an answer. I have a firewall but I have checked the firewall settings and itunes is set for full access. i am not using a proxy. I keep getting a message saying my computer is not connected to the internet. This is not correct as all of my other application connect ok to the internet. I have tried completely uninstalling all apple software and then reinstalling but still get the same problem.
How can I resolve this?

Have EXACTLY the same issue thePOPEofDOPE420, tried the setting> general> reset> reset network setting suggestion - but this does nothing. Still the issue persists.
WiFi - internet works great. As soon as it's off, status bars showing a full signal, 3G but the web page/Facebook app/App Store just hangs and won't load.
Not sure who to contact - T-Mobile or Apple?
