WRT54GS WAP stopped working abruptly

After working flawlessly for years, my ver. 3 WRT54GS's WAP stopped working today.
Firmware version 4.71.4 was installed over a month ago.
It stopped working with all of my systems; Windows, Linux, WinMobile & wii.
If I leave the router with open wireless, it works.
Nothing happened. No storm, power surge or anything else I can detect.
Otherwise, the router is working perfectly.
I have reset the router and reset it to it's defaults. No luck.
Any suggestions?

No you dont have to Load the backup Config file on your Router. Since you have upgraded the firmware on your Router, you need to re-configure all the settings on your Router manually.
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...

My callout toolbar stopped working abruptly. Restarted computer. Still doesn't work - how do I get the tool back?

My callout toolbar stopped working abruptly. Restarted computer. Still doesn't work - how do I get the tool back?

The tool is called a “callout” note. It places a text box with a leader. It’s been working just fine until suddenly it stopped working and I get an error message saying “desired operation cannot be performed on this object”. It doesn’t matter where I try to place the callout. It simply stopped working. I have tried restarting Acrobat. I have restarted my computer. I have used multiple files to ensure the issue isn’t with a corrupted file. Nothing works. The tool simply stopped working.

SOA FTP Adapter stops working abruptly

Hi All,
I have a ftp service which provides XML file streams real-time on a remote machine. I connect to this FTP server using the SOA FTP adapter and process files by polling based on timestamp every 3 seconds.
The issues I face are
1) The ftp adapter stop working abruptly. Has anybody faced this issue, if yes how can this be resolved?
2) The XML files comes to FTP location at the rate 2 files per second. Ideally I want to procss this files real-time using FTP adapter. But the backlog build is causing issues. How do I fix it?
3) If there is any downtime in production how should the SOA FTP application be activated after restart.
Also, what are the other FTP adapter configuration required to optimize the SOA FTP application to meet my business purpose.

I am using SOA 11g Fusion Middleware. The error I am getting in the logs are as follows:

WRT54GS suddenly stopped working

My WRT54GS Linksys wireless router suddenly stopped working. It is not an Internet problem because if I disconnect my router the Internet will start working again. I am connected thru a DSL connection. My router's power light will not stop flashing but all the other necessary lights are on. Any help pls...
Message Edited by nova_flush on 04-18-200702:30 PM

If the Power light is flashing thn thr is 100% problem with router. Power light should be solid green and other lights can be flickering.
Try to change power cord or reset the router for 30 sec and unplug pwer cord and plug back after 10 sec.
Remember powerlight should become solid green.
If not contact tech support bcz it may have gone bad and u will need replacement,
so contact as soon as possible before u run out of warranty period of the router.

My WRT54G suddenly stopped working please help.

Hi, i recently configured the security of the router, and then when i pressed the auto connect on the router it can no longer send a wireless signal... i tried to press the RESET button on the back, it should return it to the factory setting right? but when i connected it it wont give me good ip addresses it says limited or no connectivity, even if i manual set the ip. then try to access the home page it would not work.
i have some ideas how to fix this but i dont know if it is possible or not. :
1.) reset the router from a computer without accessing the page.
2.) go to a service center (if there is an available in the philippines...)
3.) overriding the firmware without accessing the page
please help, or else i would need to spend another 40-50$ for a new router T_T
i also tried to download the easylink firmware, or the easlink connect
but i get a 550 error when accessing the page, the online chat is no help either, they say i am on first queue but no one is answering :/

Hard reset your router for a minute...
Press and hold the reset button for 1 minute...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 1 minute and re-connect the power cable...Also make sure that your computer is set to obtain IP automatically, disable any firewalls, security softwares on the computer before trying to access the setup page...Now check if you can access your router set-up...
Click Start >> All Programs >> Accessories >> Command Prompt...A black box will appear(Command Prompt)...In the Command Prompt window type ipconfig and press 'Enter'...Look for Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection IP Address , Subnet Mask and Default Gateway...IP Address should be 192.168.1.x, Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1...
If you get the above mentioned ip address and gateway then you should be able to re-configure your router...If you get an IP Address of 169.254, then reset the router again...If still you don't get the above mentione ip address and gateway then you should give a static ip address on the computer...
Click on the Start button >>> Settings >>> Control Panel >>>Network Connections- Right click on the icon for Local area connection and go to properties- On the 'General' tab select 'Internet Protocol TCP/IP' and click on the Properties button- Select 'Use the following IP address'- Provide IP Address - 192.168.1.5, Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway - 192.168.1.1...Click on Ok button to Save and Click on "Close" on main Properties window...Now try to ping the Default Gateway, type ping 192.168.1.1 and press enter, see if you get 4 replies...If it does not then try to diable and security softwares/firewalls on your computer and try to ping it again, you should get 4 replies...
If you get the set-up page then you can configure your router...

WRT54G just stopped working...

I have WRT54G connected to a cable modem for internet service. Came home at lunch yesterday and all was working fine. Came home after work last night and couldn't connect to the internet. Called Charter cable this morning and their troubleshooting showed I can connect to the internet fine if I bypass the router, so the issue must be with the router (and of course not their problem...). How do I trouble shoot this? I've tried powerig down the router and releasing and renewing IP addresses but it hasn't helped. Any ideas?

I am sitting here with My boss's WRT54G V.8 which won't connect to either his Comcast service or my 15mbps FIOS Actiontec after 90 days light use in his home. The router shows 0.0.0.0 as the gateway and 192.168.1.1 as the only DNS. I have had other versions of the WRT54G connected successfully to my Actiontec as well as countless home installs for friends and clients. I am not a noob. I manage the PC Division of an electronics firm in Philadelphia and have advanced networking skills. It appears the V.8 has some problems, at least a batch of them with 3 reports in the same time frame. DSLReports has no info on V.8 yet so this is the only source reporting problems. I suggest you get on the phone with Linksys Monday and start the RMA process.

WRT54G frequently stops working

Hi. I've had a Linksys WRT54G for four years now, and it really hasn't had any big problems. However, lately it has stopped allowing an internet connection. Sometimes every other day, sometimes a couple times a day, we'll lose internet connection on every device in our house. The problem is easily solved by unplugging the router for about ten seconds, however it's pretty inconvenient to have to do that every day.
I just wanted to know what may be causing this. The only things I can think of is maybe it's being overworked or just overheating. We have three PCs, one laptop, one Xbox 360, one Wii, and one iPod touch connected to it. All are connected wirelessly except the xbox and one of the PCs. Also, two of the PCs and the Wii are rarely connected to the internet. If anyone can give me any advice that would be great
Thanks

Most likely you must be using your router since a long time without upgrading it...I would suggest you to upgrade your router's firmware, reset and then re-configure your router...
Download the Firmware from here
Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device : -
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on a computer hard wired to the router...
In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1...Leave the Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful" After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
Now reset your 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...
If your Internet Service Providor is Cable follow this link
If your Internet Service Providor is DSL follow this link
Adjust Wireless Settings -
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...
On the setup tab change the MTU to 1400 and click Save Settings...
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 WEP, Encryption should be 64 bit.Leave the passphrase blank, don't type in anything...
Under WEP Key 1 type in any 10 numbers please(numbers only and no letters eg: your 10 digit phone number) and click on save settings...
Please make a note of WEP Key 1 as this is the Security Key for the Wireless Network...
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...

Dodge and burn workspace stopped working abruptly

hi--I've been processing 100 or so architectural photos and dodge and burn just stopped loading the workspace window. I'd done 7 or 8, then...nothing. I get a message saying it's preparing, then loading, then NOTHING. Ideas??

make sure you have a layer highlighted in the layers pallet that can be dodged/burned (they may not work on some type of layers, modes)
or try reset the tool:

Elitebook "b" , "n" ,Caps , "-" , " " group of keys stopped working abruptly

This is a Elitebook 8460p under warranty. Neither me nor the tech. field support is able to figure out what's going . At the outset - If you feel ANY of the above letters missing in the write up , its because I did not ,"toggle invoke" my virtual keyboard . I just had the keyboard changed , & this problem still persists in fact it has gotten more persistent after the new keyboard change .
Earlier -it was more fluctuant than it is now . My options are to change keyboard, system-board or both . Keyboard change did help so far. Before I try the system board change I wanted to throw open this problem . I read SIMILAR posts in previous threads but NONE of them have been able to identity the root cause -they are in fact all Incomplete , where the last post from the asker still shows no resolution. Did anyone run into the problem and figure out where it hits ( software or hardware ? ) . All the diagnostic tests are normal . I downgraded the keyboard driver but the problem still persists .My best hunch on this is that , one specific strand of connection from the keyboard to the system board isn't working & that maps to this group of keys .It maybe that the corresponding system board connector for this is not working. A hardware key-map document ( which circuit strand maps to which keys ) will confirm this. I have a dual boot environment with Ubuntu & when the problem is present in Windows its also present in Ubuntu. USB keyboard works just fine.

HELP! Wireless Router [WRT54G] Suddenly Stopped Working

Hey guys, so over the past 2 weeks i cancelled a previous dsl subscription and i am now with AT&T my activation date was today and at first i wasnt able to connect to the net with my new modem... after chatting with tech suppport they made me login to the modems IP address to configure an email setting which somehow solved my issue i can browse the net perfectly when my macbook is directly connected to the modem with the ethernet cable but when i try to connect the ethernet cable to my linksys wireless router (which worked perfectly fine with the last modem ..) i cant seem to browse the net is there some kind of IP config that i have to do? i dont think the connection itself is faulty since i can successfully log on to the linksys wireless router's ip address and i can also see that connection is at full capacity in the wireless airport connection icon on the top of my window...but when i try to surf the net using the wireless conneciton it kind of just stands still and the page doesnt connect/load... can anyone give me some help pls? thakns

I'm having the same problem today. I've been using this router for a couple of years with no problem. Today the power went out, and now my router can't find the internet. I can connect to the internet if I just plug the modem into my computer, and I can connect my my router wirelessly and get into the setup menus, but the router and modem won't talk to each other. Is there any chance the ethernet jacks on the router fried somehow? When I plug my computer into the router with an ethernet cable none of the 1-4 lights comes on no matter which one I plug into. Is that because they only come on when there is an internet connection, or is there something wrong with them maybe?

WRT54G - wireless just stopped working on all devices

Hi All,
I've had my WRT54G for a couple of years and have my Desktop hard wired (to the router) and 2 laptops and an ipod connecting wirelessly succefully for the past 2 years.Woke up this morning and nothing will connect wirelessly,finding the router is intermitent and when it does it cannot establish a connection with it. I can connect the devices via the network cable directly to the router and all works fine, it's just wireless that has suddenly stopped working.
I have tried 'turning it off and on again" turning WEP off, changing WEP password etc. but nothing seems to work. Im at a loss as to why my entire wireless network/connection has just stopped working?
Any ideas?
Message Edited by coldfuel on 02-06-2009 07:36 AM
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I'm having a similar problem. This past month or so, the router just kicks my wireless computers off the network. Then I can't find the network at all. My work around has been to go into the wireless setting (via my hard-wired computer) and change the wireless channel from 9 to 11 or vice versa. This keeps the network connected for a day or two and then kicks us off again until I change the channel.
I've looked into the solution previously posted of upgrading the Firmware but I'm having a difficult time doing so. I'm on a Mac and the firmware downloads seem to be for PC. The other problem I'm having is that my model is WRT54GS (no version number). Should I assume this is version 1.0? I think so. Anyway, like I said, when I download the firmware for that unit, it shows up as a bin file (WRT54GSv3_4.71.4.001_fw,3.bin). I then expand it and it becomes a cpgz file (WRT54GSv3_4.71.4.001_fw,3.bin.cpgz). And back and forth, over and over again.
How can I upgrade my firmware on my Mac?
PS> Current Firmware Version: v2.07.1

WRT54G ver. 2 stopped working online

Hello, just recently my wireless router (WRT54G ver. 2) stopped working online. Two nights ago I believe it stopped. I can still go online when I plug my computer directly into my modem (Linksys BEFCMU10 ver. 4).
~ Both of my wireless adapters (WUSB54G ver. 4) still can connect to the router, of course they don't recieve internet either.
~ I verified everything was plugged in, and nobody unplugged it the day it stopped working.
If you have any questions, please ask.
Thank you.

did you had a power surge or thunder storm in your area? coz sometimes it can affect the settings on the router
have you tried unplugging both your modem and router for a few minutes and plugging them back in? were you still unable to get internet back?

My WRT54GS Stopped Working Today

I have a wireless-g broadbrand router 2.4 GHZ with SpeedBooster. Today, it stopped working. If I connect to my laptop directly to my modem, my internet connection works fine. But it doesn't do anything when I connect to my router. I currently can't find my original setup CD.
I tried a variety of things I seen through out the forum to no avail.
Firmware: v1.52.2
ISP: Comcast Cable
Internet Type: Internet Cable
Router: WRT54GS v.5
I tried upgrading the firmware, resetting the MTU, rebooting my laptop, rebooting the router, resetting the router, unpluging the cable, etc to no avail.

I also have a WRT54G not with speed boost but version 3.1. My router was working fine yesterday and now it isn't. I've connect via ethernet to the modem and it works fine but when I try to connect either wirelessly or via ethernet to my router it doesn't work. I mean the router works I can access settings and ping other machines on it but when it comes to spanning the WAN it just not there. I've done as the previous mentioned countless times. First thing I did was to reconnect ISP then router still nothing. Not sure what it is or why it would just stop working overnight when everything appeared to be operation just fine beofore.

Switched from DSL to CABLE. WRT54G Wireless Router stopped working.

When I switched from DSL to CABLE, my WRT54G Wireless Router stopped working. I am not able to access the router page (192.168.1.1) Also, when I use the set up CD for re-installation, the wizard aborts in the middle saying it can not connect.
I appreciate any help to resolve this problem.
P.S. The router acts like a one-port wired router.

Here is my favorite method for resetting a router to factory defaults, and trying to get it working again.
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, try the setup disk (or setup the router manually, if you prefer), and see if you can get your router setup and working.
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 ISP, the make and model of your modem, 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.
