WRT54GS ver 1 firmware?

I went to the download page on linksys support and they say there is no firmware for this model. Where can we get the firmware for this model.
Linksys E4200 Ver.1.0.05 (Build 7)

I tried to check it too and even on http://support.linksys.com/en-us/gplcodecenter but no WRT54GS listed.
You might want to check this: http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/support/router-database and read this: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Linksys_WRT54GS_v1.0.
If everyone needs to believe in something, I believe I'll have another beer..

Access restrictions w/ WRT54G Ver 8 (Firmware 8.0.5).......

It seems that Access Restrictions are a bit of a problem w/ the Linksys routers. Well, here's my story to go with the crowd. Hopefully, someone at Linksys / Cisco can provide a solution.
I am wanting to set up access restrictions on my Linksys WRT54G Ver. 8 (Firmware 8.0.5). Following the "instructions", I built my access restrictions as follows:
Policy 1
Enabled
Named for my PC
Edited List of PC's - inserted my NIC MAC address and saved the settings
Set to "Allow" Internet Access
Everyday
24 Hrs per day
Saved Settings
Policy 2
Enabled
Named for my daughters laptop
Edited List of PC's - inserted her Wireless NIC MAC address and saved the settings
Set to "Allow" Internet Access
Sun - Thur: 07:00 AM - 09:30 PM
Fri - Sat: 07:00 AM - 10:00 PM
Saved Settings
Policy 3
Enabled Named for my wife's desktop
Edited List of PC's - inserted her NIC MAC address and saved the settings
Set to "Allow" Internet Access
Sun - Sat: 06:00 AM - 11:00 PM
Saved Settings
....then, I reset the router. Once up, I tried access from each PC...nothing. Couldn't get out.
Thus, I went back into the Linksys set up, disabled the access restrictions. Viola ! I'm back on-line with all three PC's.
Checked around the forum and found that some people had built a primary policy that included all of their PC MAC's or IP addresses and was "Enabled" and set to "Deny" Internet access 24/7. From there, they built out their access restrictions and, supposedly, they worked.
I tried that as well...deleted all the access restrictions. Reset the router and went through the entire router setup to be on the safe side. Built the primary "Deny" access restriction then my other three PC restrictions. And....it still didn't work.
Thus, I would really like to get this working so I can limit my daughters access. It's interfering with her school work so I want to lock her down a little bit. Friends are important to her but I've stressed that her education is even more important.
Thus, if Linksys themselves or someone on the forums can provide an answer, excellent ! If not, I'll look into another router that can do the job. I'd rather not do that, but if the Linksys won't perform this function, I'll have to. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Thanks for the reply. I deleted all profiles and built just the two specific for my daughters laptop and one for my wife's PC. My wife's PC is running XP SP3. It follows the access restriction policy with no problems. My daughters laptop is running Vista Home Premium. With the policies active, her connectivity was sporadic for about an hour before it just finally shut off her connectivity completely...well before the policy was supposed to.
Thus, I'm now thinking that thismay be a Vista problem to an extent as well(Gee....who would have thought that !?!?!?!?).
I disabled the IP 6 protocol just as a precaution. Still no access. And when I disable the policies on the Linksys, she's back in service.
Any further suggestions are appreciated.

WRT54G ver.7 firmware

I have WRT54G ver.7 router.
On settings page for this router, tab status I can read:
Firmware Version: v7.00.1, May. 4, 2006
When I want to check for firmware updates for ver.7 I cannot find it, there are ver.6 and ver.8 but no version 7, where I can find ver.7?
Thanks in advance.

First, be sure to pick the linksys site for your country. Not all hardware versions are available in all countries. I think the v7 firmware is available for the UK.
Otherwise, if there is no firmware posted on the downloads page of linksys there is no firmware update available, yet.

WRT54G ver 2 Mac and PC issues

I have...
a WRT54G ver 2, firmware v4.21.1 (latest available for this model),
two PC desktops wired (192.168.1.101) - second desktop not used much),
a PC laptop wireless (169.254.58.14),
a Mac Desktop wireless (192.168.1.104),
and 2 Mac Laptops (169.254.75.54) (169.254.254.36).
The problem is...
When one of the wireless computers is turned on it won't connect unless the router is powered down and back on. It will be fine until one of the other wireless computers are turned on and now it doesn't connect. It is possible to get them all simultaneously connecting, but difficult. It seems to be in the timing. I still haven’t nailed it down. Frustrating...
The questions...
Did I give enough information?
Can I do what I want with this router or do I need to upgrade?
If can do, what settings?
If can't, new hardware recommendations?
Thanx

Thanks! I had already downloaded and installed the latest firmware, but it didn't really help. I set the parameters you described, and bam, all wireless devices work. I shut down and restarted each one to verify, and they can access the network!
Again, Thanks a lot!

WRT54G Ver 6 Losing connection

The problem I'm having is everyonce in a while (in about a weeks time) all PC's in my network lose the ability to connect to the router and Internet. I have to unplug the router, wait for a few minutes, then plug it back up, turn my PC(s) my on, and I'm able to connect. I've checked with Linksys and I'm currently running the most current Firmware for Ver. 6.
Do any of you GURU's have any ideas or fixes for this? Thanks in advance
I have the following:
WRT54G
Ver.6
Firmware 1.02.0
IP Address assigned by DHCP server on the Router
Max IP addresses allowed to connect is 9
ISP: Charter Cable 3Mb, IP address is not Static
3 PC's connected wired
3 PC's connected wireless
***I hope I've provided enough information****

Thanks, PD

Sorry to interject a completely different answer here, but I have experienced the same problems.
Blame me for the newb I am, but here is what I did after losing conn and thinking that my modem was burned up after 2 years of use:
1) Attempted to buy a new DSL modem on Easter Sunday...good luck...
2) Went back home after not finding said modem to find connection working again
3) Wife did not use her desktop for 10 days due medical procedure (no connection problems)
4) Wife gets better, uses her computer, I start losing connection again.
5) Not realizing step 4, I call ATT dsl and am told, maybe you need a new filter on your DSL line. DL speeds return to proper speeds, think I am fine.
6) Wife uses Outlook 18 hours later while I am on my networked machine, we both lose connection
7) After reconnecting all possible wires, realize maybe the problem is with the latest Windows Update Patch OR a router problem
8) Go to my trusty Best Buy contact at nearby store, named Jason, and ask Jason if he has heard anything like this in the last 6 weeks...He THANKED ME PROFUSELY as he and his brother were experiencing the SAME networking problem. Jason removed the past 7 windows update patches and that removed the problem.
He has since turned off Windows Updates. Jason said that a couple of the update patches could not be uninstalled, but the 7 or so that could be uninstalled did the trick and he has not had dropped connections since.
Anyone else experiencing this? I talked to a cable modem user/friend and he has been experiencing similar problems but the Microsoft utility with his router allows him to double click to re-establish a connection, unlike me who has to power everything down, count to sixty, and power up.
(I have not yet uninstalled the patches but wondering what others have seen)
Thanks for the posts peeps!

WRT54G Ver 1.1 Firmware Upgrade

I was experiencing some connection problems that were causing me to cycle the power on my router a few times a week. I decided to upgrade the firmware to 4.21.1 hoping to resolve this issue. The firmware upgrade completed and all configuration settings were put back as I had before the upgrade.
Since the update, I cannot connect to the internet through my DSL when connecting through the router. I can connect to the internet when my computer is directly connected to the modem. I called Linksys and I was told to reset the router three times. Had no results.
Can anyone help me out with this? Or is there a place where I can download the old firmware that I originally had?
I have a WRT54G ver 1.1 and Bellsouth DSL
Thanks
(Edited post for guideline compliance. Thanks!)
Message Edited by JOHNDOE_06 on 11-20-2007 08:55 AM

--Update--
I solved the problem. The Bellsouth DSL modem is in bridge mode after it is either reset (hard button) or configured via the web utility.
WITHOUT connecting the router to the modem, configure the router to be PPPoE insted of DHCP. If the router is connected to the modem while still in DHCP mode, the modem will assume the router is a computer. This will kick the modem out of bridge mode.
So the steps to solve the problem are:
1) Disconnect ethernet between router and modem.
2) Reset modem / put in bridge mode.
3) Connect to router via web utility and configure PPPoE settings.
4) Connect router and DSL modem via ethernet cable.
(Mod Note: Edited due to non-compliance of forum guidelines.)

WRT54G Ver 2.0 - No firmware download available

Hi all,
I was able to find all versions of firmware for my router's model number (WRT54G Ver 1.0 to 8.2), except for Ver. 2.0, which I have.
Any advice welcome.

Well the firmware version that you are looking for WRT54G v2 can be downloaded from the linksys/Cisco website or from the following link: http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/support/routers/WRT54G . Since the firmware version from WRT54G v1 till WRT54G v4 are same so you can download the firmware for any version between v1 to v4.

I (mistakenly) updated firmware of my WRT54G Ver 1 with firmware V 7. The router is still working fine but now I have this problem: when I open the router for setting, the menu is unreadable and I cannot acces the menu. How can I repair it, or how to rollback? Thanks for anyone who can help.

Read the support articles for your router. Look for the article regarding a "blinking power light". It describes how to flash your router through tftp instead of the web interface. Follow the instructions and load the correct firmware with tftp to the router.

Step by step complete setup for WRT54G ver.6 with Laptop and XBOX 360

Hello. I am sorry to post this, I am sure it is a juevenile and redundent question...but I have tried to look for the set up cd (I can find where to download it...though I can find the firmware upgrade or whatever). My friend at work said it would do all the setup pretty much automatically for me.
I somewhat know computers, but you might go ahead and make your replies VERY lamen's terms or I might not be able to follow. Anyways, what I need, is a step by step/screen by screen directions for a secure network. I have made a partial attempt at setting it up and it technically works, but I would feel better if I did the steps a-z in order, so I know that it is done correctly. I also am not totally confident in its security as it is now. (Also, technically, I did not check the XBOX again after getting the new laptop, I am just assuming it is still working because it was before).
My problem is I can't seem to find very good directions for setting up the router...I only find partials or confusing directions.
So here are the things I am trying to connect:
Liksys WRT54G ver. 6
Gateway Laptop running Windows Vista
XBOX 360 - WIRED
(I had a PC and a laptop, but they both died at the same time and I have only been able to replace the laptop at this point...the PC will come later and not sure at this point if it will be Wired or not).
I have a cable Modem between the Router and the wall...I didn't look at that for brand/etc...but I can get it ASAP if needed.
Here are the settings that I have so far:
Changed the Router Name
Changed the SSID
Have DHCP set to 3 (XBOX, PC, Laptop)
Wireless SSID Broadcast: Disable
Username and Password changed to my own info
UPnP: Enable
I may have changed other things without knowing it. So like I said, a complete, step by step screen by screen set up would be totally appreciated. I haven't done anything in the security tab, all that is totally foreign to me, so I am just not broadcasting for now until I can get some help setting things up with you guys.
And if someone is familiar with the Laptop/XBOX 360 setup, and I need to change any of the settings on the XBOX itself, could you please include that in your directions? I know that isn't technically what THIS forum is for, but it would sure be helpful to me if you happen to know both parts anyways.
Thanks a lot (in advance)!

So all you just need to do is, secure your Wireless Network. Follow the setps bellow and change the settings on your Router.
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
Click on the Wireless tab
- Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
- Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
- Set the Wireless channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
For Wireless Security : -
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key.
NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...
Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...

WRT54G ver. 6 can no longer connect to the internet after reset

I reset my WRT54G ver. 6 to clear the password, and now I can no longer connect to the internet with it. I can see the router itself from my PC, but that is all. I've followed the directions here for connection problems, but I can't seem to get an IP Address for it in the Web Configuration tool. Anybody have any thoughts?

Since you reset your router, you need to reconfigure it back again. try the online utility that automates the configuration. download Easy Link Connect utility at www.linksys.com/connect then download "Netset" and follow instructions.
if not Easy Link connect didnt work then you need to do the configuration manually.
1. check physical connection modem should be connected wired to internet port of the router then PC to numbered ports of the router.
2. Brighthouse i believe is cable connection, right? try power cycle your devices (turn off modem and router then turn on modem 1st then router next). check if your online.
3. if not. check PC ip. click "start" then "run" type in "cmd" then press "OK". the command prompt should pop-up. type "ipconfig" and check IP and gateway. you should be getting an ip: 192.168.1.x and gateway: 192.168.1.1
4. access router. open IE, then type in http://192.168.1.1 on address bar.
5. you will be prompted with username and PW. "admin" is the default password. on setup, just below are subtabs. select "MAC address clone". in it, set "mac clone" to "enable" then click on "clone" then "save settings".
6. power cycle devices again. try to go online
note: if you dont have latest firmware. try updating if needed

WRT54G Ver 6 Constant Need To Reset!

I purchased a WRT54G Ver 6.0 Router in April to bring to Iraq with me. I have it connected to my iDirect 3000 Satellite Modem, with the static IP config input into the WRT54G.
I have two computers on my desk, my personnal XPS 1710 with Vista and my Work D600 Latitude with XP. Both computers exhibit the same problems at the same time. I have even had other computers connected and have had the same problem.
My problem seems to be a constant need to reset the WRT54G Router. I was connecting wirelessly. The system seemed to operate fine for a day or two. I started to have problems with the connection to the internet dropping. When it did this, I could not connect to the WRT54G setup page either. I figured something locally here at the Camp in Iraq might have been interfering with the wireless, so I ditched the wireless and have been using wired connections. The problems have not stopped. I am constantly having to unplug and reset the router to reconnect. When it hangs up, I cannot even connect to the setup page. Occasionally, it will find itself without reseting the router, but most times, I have to reset.
I have tried factory default reseting and manually reentering my settings. I have just updated the firmware, but it didn't seem to solve anything. In the past few minutes while trying to search for this problem here on this forum, the router dropped the connection twice. The networking icon on the computer still indicates a connection, on the Vista is shows that a local connection is available only (during the problem).
I have read a little online and this seems to be a common problem for Linksys. I have 2 more of these routers, one at home and one at my office in the States. Both have had the problems, just not as severe. This router requires reseting at least 15 times a day during my 12 hour shift.
I bought the Linksys Routers because they did have a reputation for reliability and quality. Boy, I guess I should have researched this one a bit more.
I have 5 IP addresses from my Satellite ISP, so I am considering configuring the Router as a Switch or HUB, but I am unsure on how to do this, or of it will even solve my problems.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Vincent

I am having the almost exactly the same problem. It started about a week ago, (just like alot of others I have read on here recently) and I too will have no access to the set up page once it drops the net. I can still acess other computers on the router, but no net and no router set-up page until I reset it. I'm running the same router, without the firmware update. I have 4 desktops directly into the router..and one laptop wireless. Most of the time, the net will stay on for all the computers for surfing and email. Maybe once or twice a day it will drop access to the internet. a simple unplugging of the power cord resets it and everything is peachy. BUT....try to start a download.(usind DAP *download accelerator plus* or a bit torrent)...WHOA! it's anywhere from an instant drop to maybe ten minutes then drop. Most assuredly it will drop. we have had this router since January, and until a week ago, it worked just fine. no problems. Last week, our ISP upgraded their equipment and increased the bandwidth. (we have to use a cellular connection with a static IP being out in the boonies far enough that cable and DSL are still not available) The problems started at the same time and I thought it might be a problem with them. After testing one of the computers with a direct connection to the internet modem, everything, including a major download, worked just fine. It is definately a router problem. I spent quite a lengthy time on the phone with Linksys tech support, and the nice lady had me change the MTU rate from 1500 to 1300. It seemed to work, but about an hour after being done with the support call, things started to go wonky again. I am just about at my wits end!! Nothing has been changed on the router settings except that one thing that tech support instructed me to do. I am kinda leary about upgrading the firmware because I have been seeing a ton of *my router wont work with firmware update* or *now my router is frozen* posts. I have to type in a ton of settings because I am using a static IP and I really don't want to do all that again!! lol PLEASE, somone have a solution to this problem! It is driving me mad!! I would really hate to have to buy a new router, but my roomate is about to that point if this doesn't get fixed soon.
