Wrt54gs setup issue

I have just purchased the wrt54gs router to replace an old Microsoft router.  When I run the setup off the included CD, right after the router is configured, I get an error saying the router cannot connect to the internet.  I know I have connected everything as I should (cable to modem, modem to router, router to PC) and power up in the correct order.  When I connect the modem directly to the PC, the internet connection is great.  When I look at the face of the router the "Internet' light is on and flickering as if is receiving a signal.  What should I do?  Anybody have a similar issue?

Did you try cloning your pc's mac address ? Some ISP lock the mac to the first pc connected to the modem .

  • Linksys WRT54GS setup issues

    Good day all and sorry if this has been covered elsewhere.  
        I recently bought a computer off of a friend which came with a WRT54GS router, which I am having issues setting it up. 
    I have the setup disc version 6.0.  I get to about step 8 and I am asked for a password, whichIi never set up.  I have seen on here a few places that suggest the default is admin, but I am not sure if that is for a secure log in or the set up.  Any rate, admin doesn't seem to work.  I have looked elsewhere on the forum and found that i can hold the reset I can default the router's factory settings, but this doesn't help either.  If it is useful,I have also cleaned the drives and installed a new OS (WXP), so I don't believe it is any lingering PC password type of issue.  This is my first rodeo with a wireless setup, so any info that you all may have would be most helpful.  Thanks! 

    You don't have to use the CD to set up the router. Just configure it manually. Follow these links for instructions, depending on your Internet Service Provider:

  • Linksys wrt54g setup issue

    hello all,
    ive recently setup a cisco modem with a linksys wrt54g i had lying around for a friend.   i enabled the security (WPA/WPA2) and changed the name for the wireless connection. I restart every thing and i see the new name wireless secured connection but unfortunately a while later i see that the original unprotected 'linksys' access point still available. ive tried resetting the router and doing the process over a couple times. first by enabling the password and then changing the name and vice versa but i always see the unprotected access point show up again and again and its driving me crazy. i know its my router as well because when i disable the router both connections are lost. so basically my router is showing 2 names.
    any help would be greatly appreciated.
    thanks!

    Did you try removing the entire preferred network from the preferred list? If not then try to remove the entire preferred network from the list and then check it still shows the default network of the router “Linksys” or not. Here is the link for removing the preferred wireless network from the list:

  • Unable to access WRT54G setup

    I need to change some settings on my WRT54G router (I believe it's v8 and I'm using Vista). When I first set the router up I was able to access the setup (192.168.1.1) just fine. Lately, however, I have been unable to reach it. Every time I try to connect to the router's address the connection times out. I'm not sure why this is happening, as the internet connection itself is working fine. Why can't I access my router?

    The 132 address is an Intenet (public) address.  I was able to ping it.  I assume that it likely belongs to your ISP.
    I cannot ping the 10 address.  It apparently belongs to the wireless router that you are connecting to.  This might be your own wireless router, or perhaps your neighbor's, or a router that belongs to your school.
    Since you cannot find the router's setup pages at either of these addresses, I see no way to sort this problem out without resetting the router to factory defaults, and then setting up the router again from scratch.   Since you are at college, I assume that other students have had similar setup issues.  Perhaps one of your friends could help you with this.
    To reset your router to factory defaults, use the following procedure:
    1) Power down all computers, the router, and the modem, and unplug them from the wall.
    2) Disconnect all wires from the router.
    3) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
    4) Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then release it, then let the router reset and reboot (2-3 minutes).
    5) Power down the router.
    6) Connect one computer by wire to port 1 on the router (NOT to the internet port).
    7) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
    8) Power up the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it is off).
    9) Try to ping the router. To do this, click the "Start" button > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. A black DOS box will appear. Enter the following: "ping 192.168.1.1" (no quotes), and hit the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that start either with "Reply from ... " or "Request timed out." If you see "Reply from ...", your computer has found your router.
    10) Open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to your router's login page. Leave the user name blank, and in the password field, enter "admin" (with no quotes). This will take you to your router setup page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually listed near upper right corner of screen). Exit your browser.
    If you get this far without problems, go ahead and try to setup the router manually, and see if you can get your router setup and working.  You said you have a complicated setup there at college, so I doubt that the setup disk that came with the router will work (unless it worked for you the first time).
    If you cannot get "Reply from ..." in step 9 above, your router is dead.
    If you get a reply in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, then either your router is dead or the firmware is corrupt. In this case, use the Linksys tftp.exe program to try to reload your router with the latest firmware. After reloading the firmware, repeat the above procedure starting with step 1.
    If you need additional help, please state your router's version, your router's firmware version, and the results of steps 9 and 10. Also, if you get any error messages, copy them exactly and report back.
    Please let me know how things turn out for you.

  • Setup issue in oracle projects - classifications link(standard link) is missing in oracle projects page

    Hi Team,
    I have a setup  issue in oracle projects
    I am unable to find the classifications link in oracle projects page.
    Navigation : Go to any projects responsibility-->search for the projects-->click on project -->click on setup Tab : At the bottom of the page, we can see some standard links along with UDA's.
    Here one standard link Classifications is missing.
    Can anybody guide me what setup we need to do get the link.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    The classifications link is not appearing in your Project's Setup page because, Classifications must have been unchecked in the Project template from which your project has been created. You can find the Project template information by clicking on the Additional Information link in the same Project -setup page. Once you check the classification flag in the concerned Project Template, all future Project creations made out of this template would have the link enabled.
    But for the current project, classification link cannot be enabled.
    Rgds,

  • Odd speed dial setup issue

    I am getting an odd speed dial setup issue.  Here are the steps:
    1. Open speed dial setup screen
    2. Tap an open slot
    3. Search for a contact using the keyboard
    4. Click on the contact to select it
    If I do it that way, I am taken back to the speed dial setup screen, but the contact is NOT added to the slot.
    On the other hand, if in step #3, I just scroll down the list of contacts and select a contact, it works just fine.  Seems to be an issue with the search function.  Anyone else have this problem?
    Android v2.2
    System Version.2.3.15.MB810.Verizon.en.US

    The steps that you are taking correct for setting up the speed dial. I have provided a link for additional information.

  • HT1595 i can't see my apple tv on my screen? i'm not sure if this is an apple tv issue or a tv setup issue? (although it appears nothing has changed on my tv setup since the last time i used it?)

    i can't see apple tv on my screen? i'm not sure if this is an apple tv issue or a tv setup issue? (although it appears nothing has changed on my tv setup since the last time i used it?)

    As far as the flashing question mark and globe icons are concerned, your computer had lost track of its startup volume and was searching through the possibilities. The globe icon indicates that it is looking for a network to start from and the question mark indicates that it is looking for an OS X volume. To fix this, if you haven't already, go to System Preferences > Startup Disk and reselect your internal HD as the startup volume.
    From what you have described, this issue does seem to have corrected itself, and the faster start up is what one would normally expect. I think that you have absolutely no reason to reinstall your system.

  • WRT54GS Connection issue

    I have been using a WRT54GS without issue for the last 3 years. Two weeks ago a problem arose which stopped the router from opening new connections after some arbitrary amount of time. Thinking it was just an age issue i quickly went out and purchased the identical router only to hook it up and find an identical issue. The problem causes both wired and wireless connections to lose the ability to create new connections to the internet any old connections opened, for example an online radio station or an online game continue to work if they were opened before the issue arose, I can not however open new connections. After the second router proved useless i figured it must be my internet connection so i bypassed the router and hooked up my connection directly to the back of my computer, no issues. I have already updated the firmware of both devices to no avail, any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated after already wasting the $50 on the second WRT54GS and losing the receipt to return it i would prefer to avoid spending more money on a new router if possible, thanks.

    Hard reset your router to factory settings and then re-configure it...To reset the linksys router 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...

  • Using two routers and PLK300 adapter, WRT54G internet issues

    I have a Wireless N on the third floor and a powerline adapter connected to that, on the first floor I have a WRT54G connected to the other powerline adapter. When I plug my laptop directly into the powerline adapter I have internet access, but when I plug in my WRT54G router I do not have internet access (through my laptop when wirelessly connected) I can access the rest of my network through the router and the rest of my network can access the internet. Just not my WRT54G router.  Any ideas?

    How is your WRT54G setup and connected?
    I assume you want file and/or printer sharing across your entire network  -- is that correct?
    If so, your WRT54G should be converted to a WAP.  To do this, setup the WRT54G as follows:
    First, disconnect the WRT54G from the rest of your network, then make the following changes:
    Local IP address:  192.168.1.2  (this assumes your N router is using 192.168.1.1 , and that you are not using 192.168.1.2 elsewhere in your network.)
    DHCP server:  disabled
    Save the settings, then power down your entire network.
    Wire the powerline adapter to any LAN port on the WRT54G.  Do not connect anything to the Internet port of the WRT54G.
    Power up your system.  It should work.
    Are you using the same or different SSID from wireless N router?

  • AWE Transaction Configuration Event Notification Setup issue

    AWE Transaction Configuration > Event > Notification Setup issue
    On Final Denial Event has Notifications Option set to "Requester" "Both".
    The Email URL is redirecting to the correct Approval Component mentioned under Approval Component in On Final Denial Event
    But the Worklist URL is redirecting to another Component unlike the email URL, it is sending to a different component.
    Why the same notifications via the same Event (On Final Denial) have two different URL's??

    Hi,
    The worklist/notification component is defined on several places, where the "lowest" definition applies for the action being triggered.
    1 AWE Transaction Configuration> Transaction Registry > Default Approval Component
    2 AWE Transaction Configuration > Event
    3 AWE Transaction Configuration > Event > Notification > Template Detail tab
    Be aware that the Notification section in the Transaction Configuration shows 1 row in the grid, where more than 1 row can be defined. Click on the View all to expand the grid and see all notification defined for this event.
    See if above configurations differ in menu, component, page ...

  • ICloud OS X email setup issue

    Hi need some help with an iCloud email setup issue that doesn’t seem to have been covered by other posts or the Apple help factsheets.
    Used my old mac.com Apple ID to set up an iCloud account which now shows as having my iMac as a linked device. To use iCloud Mail was prompted to create a new email address which I could do by turning on Mail in iCloud settings.
    I signed into iCloud via my iMac and having deselected default options to use iCloud for Contacts etc arrived at the account page which has the various options on the RHS and my mac.com ID info on the left.
    Ticked the Mail option on the RHS was asked to “choose an iCloud email address” underneath the box where you enter the chosen email address was a note saying “you cannot change your email address after creating it”. When I tried to  set up the new iCloud email address got a prompt saying “you cannot change your email address after creating it”.
    Help!

    You need to know Comcast's settings for incoming and outgoing server when setting up your OSX Mail app. The info should be somewhere on Comcast's help web page.

    My computer was rebuilt this week and I am in the process of setting up iTunes and have a weird setup issue. The music in my playlists plays but the same song doesn't play from the library. Initially, I opened ITunes while holding down Shift of control key.

    Scratch the post above - the musics that plays in the playlist also plays in the library and that is because i forgot that i imported from the cd yesterday. Basically, I see the rest of my music, but it doesnt' play and tells me it can't locate the file though the location in 'perferences' points to the correct location. Getting iTunes to play after a new computer or rebuild is a headache.

  • New, Single Server - DNS, Web, Wiki, Mail Setup Issues

    I'm having some issues properly setting up 10.7.3 to host internal DNS and external Web, Wiki and Mail.  I'm having issues with the web and wiki hosting.  Since those are the most important right now, I haven't really had a chance to fully test the other features.  I was able to do some testing of the mail and iCal but it was limited.
    Long read below but I thought the specifics would be helpful...
    My goals and configuration are:
    ***GOALS***
    Primary:
    1) Host a public website: example.org and www.example.org
    2) Host a public wiki: main.example.org and www.main.example.org
    3) Host a public mail server: [email protected]
    4) Host a public, group calendar
    4a) Read only to majority - Read/Write to a group
    5) Host a global address book for authenticated users
    Secondary:
    6) Allow anonymous public access to a file share (read only)
    7) Allow authenticated access to the same file share (read/write)
    8) Do as much of this via GUIs as possible.
    ***SETUP AND CONFIGURATION***
    Physical:
    1) Business class Internet (no blocked ports)
    2) A single, public and static IP address
    3) Domain name and public DNS via GoDaddy
    4) Wildcard Cert: *.example.org from GoDaddy
    5) Late 2011 (bought in Jan 2012) MacMini Lion Server (the $1,000 one).
    5a) Upgraded the RAM to 16GB (need for VMware Windows clients)
    5b) Added two USB to Ethernet adapters.
    6) Using a new model AirPort Extreme Base Station (bought w/ the MM) as the main router.
    Initial Configuration:
    7) Setup a Mac Address reservation for the main and two USB Ethernet ports along with the wireless too.
    7a) Main port = 10.0.1.5 / Others are .6, .7 and .10
    8) During the setup, I chose the Host on the Internet (third) option and named my server: main.example.org
    9) After the setup completed, I upgraded the OS & Admin Tool to 10.7.3 from a clean install (on #5 now)
    DNS Config
    10) I used the admin tool to open DNS and change:
    11) "Primary Zone Name" from main.example.org to example.org.
    12) In the "Nameservers:" block, I changed the zone name there but left the nameserver name alone (zone: example.org /// Nameserver Hostname: main.example.org).
    13) The Machine Name and Reverse Zone was left alone.  RZ resolves to main.example.org.  sudo changeip -checkhostname is good.  dig on the example.org and main.example.org are good to go (NOERROR).
    OD Config
    14) From the server app, I clicked Manage/Network Accounts and setup the OD - No issues.
    SSL
    15) From the server app, I created self signed cert, generated a CSR, got a public Cert, then replaced the self-signed with the public one - No issues.
    16) Changed any service using the self-signed cert to the public one - No issues.
    17) Changed the cert in the OD to the public cert from server admin - No issues.
    In order: File Sharing, Mail, AB, iCal, Web, Wiki, Profile Manager, Network Groups, Network Users
    18) File Sharing was setup using the server app
    19) Setup mail using the server app to start it and the server admin app to configure it - No issues there (I think...)
    20) AB - Flipped the switch to on
    21) iCal - Flipped the switch to on - I setup the e-mail address to use after I added the network accounts.
    22) Web - Flipped the switch to on - Default site worked (main.example.org)
    23) Wiki - Flipped the switch to on - Default wiki worked. (main.example.org)
    24) PM - Checked the sign config profiles and enabled the device mgt.  I then flipped the switch to on - Default settings and pages worked.
    ***MY PROBLEMS***
    Website:
    Adding a website for example.org gave me the red dot in the server app.  To fix that, I added a Machine Name record to my primary zone (PZ = example.org Machine Name = example.org).  I first tried using the same 10.0.1.5 IP as the main.example.org and left the reverse mapping alone (still resolved to the NS of main.example.org).
    That gave me the green light in the server app when trying to add the website again.  From there, I changed the "Store Site Files In" to the location of my website files (and confirmed "Everyone" has Read Access in the folder's security settings).  I left the other info alone (all defaults accepted) and clicked done.
    Access to the website works on the server but external access doesn't (Network Error/timed out tcp_error).  Checked the AirPort settings using the AirPort utility (version 5.5.3) and the Port Mapping (under the "Advanced" icon) show serveral services all pointing to 10.0.1.5.  Thinking it could be DNS I tried main.example.org externally and it failed the same way.
    I ran the changeip command (good to go) and dig on example.org and main.example.org and they both resolved to 10.0.1.5 correctly.
    I removed the example.org Machine Record from the zone and it now looks like:
    PZ=example.org / ZONE=example.org / NS=main.example.org
    Machine Record=main.example.org / IP=10.0.1.5
    RM=10.0.1.5 / Resolves=main.example.org

  • Shared Review comment server setup issues

    I've been having some issues setting up a comment server/repository for Shared Reviews in Acrobat 8 (for our all-Mac network). I've done extensive research on how to set up a Network Folder and a WebDAV folder (since those are the only two supported methods in Acrobat 8).
    - For the Network Folder setup, I created a folder on one of the machines on our network and shared it using SMB. When specifying that location (using smb://IPAddress/Folder/), Acrobat either 1) brings up a login screen, into which I enter the proper credentials, and after pressing OK, it says the connection could not be made, or 2) it verifies the shared folder location, but when I make comments and then choose Publish Comments, a red box appears saying something to the effect of "cannot access IPAddress, will keep trying."
    - I also tried using WebDAV. Solutions I found online mostly consisted of using the Terminal to access system files and entering numerous lines of code. I pretty much had to learn about WebDAV from scratch today in order to get the Shared Reviews process set up, but I feel like there is something I'm missing regording its implementation.
    I suppose this post can be boiled down to three questions:
    1) What is the best way to set up a Shared Review system, and how can it be done in the simplest manner possible?
    2) What am I missing from my knowledge of Network Folders and WebDAV folders in this regard?
    3) Would functionality be benefited by simply upgrading to Acrobat X?
    Thank you all in advance for your responses and help. If there is any more information required in order to provide a solution, please let me know.

  • Auditing file server setup issues - nfs permissions

    I have half-dozen Solaris 10 workstations requiring Solaris Auditing enabled and audit files saved. I used a spare Solaris 10 system with 2-72GB disks and formatted 2nd disk for entired 72GB. I shared out the 72GB partition on this system and modified /etc/security/audit_control on a test Solaris 10 W/S to use the shared-out partition on Audit file server as primary audit directory. Following directions in Solaris 10 Admin Gde I chmod -R 750 the mount pt using the 72GB partition before sharing out the partition. However, all client W/S's that I enable Auditing would not use the 72GB partition on file server until I went back and chmod 777 the partition and rebooting file server. Also, on any client that I have enabled Auditng to use nfs-mounted 72GB partion on file server I cannot as a non-root user issue a "df -k" command without getting error:
    df: cannot statvfs /var/audit/fmaud.1/files: Permission denied
    Is this normal or did I miss a chmod step or two in setting up Audit clients and/or Audit file server?
