WRT54G version 7 -- INTERNET CONNECTION PROBLEM!!!

Hi guys,
Just wondering how do i configure my router so that i am able connect to my router and use the internet?
I have tried:
1. Configuring my router according to "How can I set up a router with DSL Internet?" post on the support webpage
http://linksys.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/linksys.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=3687
2. I have tried checking my computer's IP address and that is fine
3. Checking the Physical Connection to the Router i.e all the cables are connected
4. Checking the LEDs
5. I have upgraded the router's firmware to 7.00.4
6. Turned off Windows Firewall
7. Obtain IP address of the computer automatically
8. My modem is working perfectly when i connect it directly to the computer
9. Disable proxy setting.
10. Ping to router and it is fine "Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss)."
11. Ping to the internet "ping linksys.com" and there is nothing being sent and received
Btw, I am getting a signal from the router but its only is connected locally. There is no internet access and I am using vista (is it the cause of the problem?)
What do i do next to make this thing work?

Kindly connect the modem straight to the computer...click start >> all programs >> accessories >> command prompt...In the command prompt window type ipconfig /all and press Enter...Post the details...
Kindly state your ISP(Intenet Service Providor).
Kindly state the make and model number of your modem(not the wrt54g).

  • WRT54G Ver 6 Internet connectivity problems

    Alright so here's the deal.
    I'm on Windows XP with Verizon DSL (in Orange County, CA) that uses a Westell modem (just modem, not modem and router combo).
    I have the old Linksys BEFSR41 v.2 router that runs with everything fine.
    I just bought the WRT54G Version 6 and connected everything up as needed.  Powered things down and then back up.  And it could not detect an Internet connection, but I could access the router via web browser.
    - Ran the Setup CD and it couldn't find the internet.
    - Upgraded the firmware.
    - I searched the forums and did not find a successful solution.
    - Called my ISP to confirm it is DHCP.
    - Talked to Linksys Support via phone and he had me do all sorts of stuff.  Releasing, Renewing, Local IP Address changes, pinging, MAC, etc.  All this to try to get some sort of IP address with the internet.
    - Tried it with a diff WRT54G Ver 6 (Yeah.  I bought two.  One for me, and one to bring to my parents), and it still didn't work.  (Can't be that both the routers I got are defective.)
    - Searched forums some more and ran across the EasyLink program.  I used it, and it tells me my freaking Wired adaptor is disabled.  Where do I enable it?  Can't be my computer because it all works fine with the old Linksys router I got....or could it?
    - Powered down and back up in many different combinations.
    Did all that to no avail.  Anyone got a solution?  I couldn't find anything that worked.  I'm about to go return this and get something else tomorrow.  Maybe if I wake up, there will be a workable solution that is replied back.
    Thanks in advance to all those that tried to help and posted something, or didn't post due to having no solution.
    - Chris

    Yup Yup Yup.  I tried the WAN address thing and it still didn't work.
    I was about to pack everything up and go return the stupid thing.  BUT.....I decided to talk to Verizon DSL support since I hadn't tried that.
    They helped me out good!!!
    Here's the solution.
    I plugged in the old router, the BEF, and went to Status to click the DHCP Release.  Then unplugged the old router.
    Then per Verizon DSL support instruction....powered down the modem, then powered it back up and waited for lights to stabilize.  Then I plugged in the new router, the WRT.  And went to Status (IP was already autofilled, with internet working) but I still clicked DHCP Renew.
    It all works.  WOOOOOO!!!! 
    By the way.  The WAN address thing is important.  I went to it on the new, WORKING router and disabled the WAN address.  The internet stopped working.  I re-entered in the WAN address I copied and the internet worked again.  So......yeah. 
    I hope for all those out there having the same problems as me, and without a solution, see this thread and try this.
    Thanks again for your guys' help.
    **edit**
    By the way.  Is there a way to stop my internet to being a stickler to this MAC address?  I'm just curious.  I'm gonna go google MAC address and see if I can read anything useful.

  • RG54G2 Wireless Router Internet Connection Problem

    Hi,
    (apologies for the long message - trying to cover all details - summary: wireless router often drops internet connection)
    I recently bought an RG54G2 Wireless Router, a CB54G2 PCMCIA Wireless card and a D-Link GWL-630 PCMCIA Wireless card.  In addition to two laptops connected to the wireless router WLAN, I have two PCs (one Win WP Pro SP 1 and one Win98SE) connected to the router via wired LAN.  I also have a SurfBoard SB3100 Cable Modem connected to the WAN port (this connects to my ISP -  Optusnet (Australia) via DHCP).
    The problem I have is that the internet connection is disconnected many times a day (often every few minutes, sometimes an hour or so).  I am able to reconnect by resetting the wireless router via the wireless router configuration page.  When the internet is disconnected I am still able to access the computers on the LAN/WLAN (via Windows Explorer and Ping), I am also able to ping the router and the Cable Modem, but nothing outside of the cable modem.
    Also, when the internet is disconnected the System Status page indicates that the router is still connected to the internet, and the Diagnostics page passes the Test Connection test, though no external pings work.
    I did not have this problem when the cable modem was connected directly to the Win98SE PC (and other PCs via ICS).
    I have disabled the WLAN and the problem still exists with only the wired LAN.
    I have changed numerous settings in the wireless router config page with no success (eg disabling DHCP and setting each IP address, minimising LAN and WLAN speeds to 10 and 11MBps plus others).
    I have upgraded the wireless router firmware to R1.0.6.0 (no change to the problem).
    Searching on Google I have found several other cases of routers with unstable internet connections (none refering to the MSI routers), but none had solutions that helped my situation (most replies suggested updating the firmware).
    Any suggestions of how to make the router internet connection stable?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    maybe this is the FIX 4 wireles router internet connection problem
    please let me know if any one fix the problem with this tips
    thankz

    Subject: SOLUTION to my router loosing connection to Windows XP
    Reply | Reply to Author | Forward | Print | Individual Message | Show original | Report Abuse
    I am happy to report that after 8 days of constant battles, reboots, phone
    calls, cable pulling, router changing, it seems that I finally have found a
    combination that has had me using Verizon DSL account for over 12 hours so
    far without any kind of interruptions.
    Since so many of you tried giving me comments and suggestions, I felt that
    it is necessary for me to post this here so that the next person will not
    (hopefully) need to go through this hell as I did!
    My original problem was that when after I purchased a D-Link Wireless Router
    DI-624, I would get disconnected from Verizon DSL at least once every 2
    hours or so. My internet access would "freeze" and then a little popup box
    at the bottom right system tray would tell me that the "LAN cable has been
    unplugged".   After about a minute or so, my internet connection would be
    back working   This was NEVER happening during the 2+ years I was using my
    Westell modem alone (running in router mode).
    Please keep in mind: The problem I was having was not wireless related as
    it was happening to the desktop computer to which the router/westell was
    connected to!
    During these last 8 days, I tried: one DI-624 wireless router, two Netgear
    614v3 routers and two Linksys WRT54G v.2 routers. In addition, I received a
    brand new Westell 2200 modem from Verizon.   I also tried about four
    different CAT-5 cables. Here is the final outcome:
    I have the Linksys WRT54G (version 2) wireless router connected to the
    Netgear Fast Ethernet FA310TX network card in Auto-Sense mode (using the
    built-in XP drivers, as Netgear told me that there was never a newer
    revision released). I have DISABLED the built-in 3Com Gigabit LOM (3C940)
    network card (via the ASUS P4C800 Deluxe motherboard BIOS), DISABLED the
    Zero Wireless Configuration service, and have put in the IP/Gateway/DNS
    address numbers inside my Windows XP Network Connections | LAN setup. My
    operating system is Windows XP Pro SP1 and the modem is a Westell 2200
    configured as bridge only.
    If my situation continues to be stable, I *might* try to go back to the 3Com
    built-in card (disable any power management) and then re-enabling the Zero
    Wireless Configuration services. But in reality, I am happy with the way
    things are and have already spent enough time trying to get my router to
    work with Verizon DSL without having it drop connections!
    Now, the next step will be setting up the WIRELESS part of this. I don't
    even yet have a laptop with me on the premises, but the 802.11g card that I
    already have is the D-Link DWL-G650. I hope and assume that this will work
    okay with the Linksys...
    One thing I must say is that I never realized that how many problems other
    users are having. I would have thought that since 802.11x has been around
    in the mainstream by now 2+ years, that things would have been much more
    "system friendlier".   And again, my issues were not even WIRELESS related.
    All 3 tech supports were not really helpful, as none of them realized that
    the problem is somehow between the router and Windows XP (Ethernet card?)
    loosing a connection, which of course results in Verizon DSL loosing the
    connection also.
    One other comment about the Netgear 614 v.3 router: A number of people have
    responded to tell me that they have had this random "router resetting"
    happen to them (where the routers behaves as if someone turned the power off
    and then back on, and the lights flash) just as if you first turn it on). I
    was lucky to witness it myself during one of the "disconnects" that I had.
    This was actually the reason why I went back to try the Linksys one more
    time. So, I would definitely recommend staying way from this 614 (version
    3) model.
    Once again - THANK YOU everyone!

  • Looking for a verbose version of Internet Connect

    In talking about a connection problem regarding dialup sign-on with my ISP tech support, he asked for the error number. When I said I used a Mac, he asked if someone with a PC could try. Obviously there must be messages transferred during the connection process that I do not see.
    Is there a version of Internet Connect that will show me those messages?

    It's been a while, but IIRC you can open System Preferences -> Network -> Dial-up modem -> PPP and click the Options button. There are options for verbose logging which will log all the connection data which you can review later.

  • Some Gmail features have failed to load due to an Internet connectivity problem.

    This error message comes up both using Firefox and Chrome when using G mail. Also if it works at all,
    switching from compose to draft just takes very long or keeps working.
    No problem with G mail using Internet Explorer or Safari.
    I have used Firefox for many years & want to go back when I can solve this Vexing problem.

    Thank you for your help.
    I reset Firefox, re started and wanted to answer using G mail with Firefox,
    and the same error message comes up.. When it does the screan gets
    very lite with the error message on top.

  • Omni 10 mostly internet connection problem, also difficulties responding generally

    Dear all,
    For two weeks now i am proud owner of an omni 10 tablet. However, i already encountered some problems like the loss of the audio System, which was luckily restored with the help of the hp support via telephone.
    Unfortunately, my tablet is not properly connecting to the internet since yesterday. It also has problems opening PDF files with 'adobe read', deleting or newly creating appointments in the challenger app and foremost it sometimes does not open the settings section depite repeatedly tapping on its button..
    Most important currently is the internet connection problem. Is connects but says at the same time that the connection is limited. Additionally, it does not offer any solutions to this. That happend with three differend routers so far..
    I hope you can help me

  • Internet connectivity problems. Conflicting IP address?

    For the last few months I have been experiencing significant internet connection problems on my mac mini. Although at times my connection is ok, the majority of the time I'm suffering from what would best be described as an "intermittent" internet connection. It seems that my internet connection is constantly cutting out for short periods of time before re-establishing itself.
    I'm connected to the internet via a wireless network (netgear router). There are also two windows machines (one laptop and one desktop) and a PS3 connected on the same network (also occasionally there is a macbook connected to the network too).
    I've been with the same ISP for over a year now and previously had always experienced a good connection, also all the other devices connected on this network seem to have fine connectivity so I doubt there is any problem with my service provider.
    It could be a coincidence but the emergence of the problem seems to have conincided with my flatmates purchase of a laptop. When my flatmate first connected his laptop to the internet I received a message on my mac mini stating there was an IP address conflict, although I have not had that message again and I seem to suffer from bad connectivity at all times, not just when my flatmates laptop is turned on! Could these to issues be related?
    I'd be very grateful for any advice on how to resolve this issue as it's getting to be a very significant problem, thanks in advance for any replies...

    Also try using the open dns servers instead or your ISP's. System Preferences>Network. Advanced>DNS. Click on + and add the following: 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220. Hit Ok,then Apply.

  • OSX Mavericks having internet connection problems.

    Just updated to OSX Mavericks on my early 2011 MacBook Pro, and it's having internet connection problems. I'm using wi-fi, and so far only Firefox and Mail will connect. All other programs (such as iTunes and App Store) won't establish a connection. This is a problem that only started after I installed Mavericks. What can I do to fix this? Thanks in advance.

    App Store / iTunes Store relies on Safari settings if you can't access secure sites from Safari then they won't work...  Reset Safari  and make sure Block Cookies Setting is not set to Always.  You can also try to create a new user and see if it works there to help isolate the issue.

    1, No problems here with internet on 10.10.3
    2, No solution
    3, I think that Photos is a toy. Apple has basically neutered both Aperture and iPhotos with their efforts to make their desktop solution match the iOS solution.
