WRT54Gv5 -- Internet Wired -- No Internet Wireless

WRT54Gv5
FW_WRT54Gv5v6_1.02.6.005_20080616,0.bin
New fail mode, this week (after years of service):
Wireless connections are to router and modem only, no internet.
Wired connection to internet ok, 2 desktops and a laptop.
Needs to be reset or power cycled every few hours to stay connected.
Can this be fixed with setup or software?
Could this be a hardware failure?
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Have you Resetted your Router and re-configured all the settings on your Router back again. Press and hold the reset button for 60 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 60 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router.....
Once you login to the Router setup page, Below the Setup tab you will find MTU, which will be set to AUTO, so you need to change it to Manual and change the Size from 1500 to 1365 and click on Save 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...
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...

  • Cannot connect to Internet wirelessly or with wired connection

    Hi!
    I have a wireless linksys router connected to a wired linksys router (for vonage). My PC is wired to the wireless router and works fine. My Powerbook G4 was working fine on the wireless network too.
    Then, I decided to try to add an Airport Express just for streaming music (it is not wired to the wireless router). I have messed something up. Now, even with the AE unplugged, I can log onto the Linksys network, but the Internet connection does not work. Also, when I Turn Airport Off and wire directly into the router from my G4, I cannot use the Internet.
    I've restarted everything I can think of. Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Sounds like you need to restart the modem and hard reset the Linksys router which is connected to it. Then reconfigure that Linksys router and verify connection (Ethernet and/or wireless). After you get that setup you can add the other devices.

  • AirPort Express (2nd gen), share internet wireless and wired in the same time

    If I use my AirPort Express (2nd gen) and I connect the modem in WAN port, and a switch in the LAN port (this swich connect a computer and a NAS wired), can I share the internet wireless and via LAN and the same time?, the wireless devices and the wired devices would be in the same network?.
    Thanks.

    Thanks!

  • Connect to two networks, ethernet(LAN w/o internet), wireless(w/ internet)

    so i'm trying to connect to two networks, a wireless and a wired one
    the wireless(which connect to an access point) is a network which allows me to connect to internet, and the wired(regular router) one is a small home local network, which does not connect to internet.
    if i just have the wireless one on, unplug/disable wired one, i can connect to internet just fine, but if i do plug in ethernet cable, then all of the sudden i can't connect to internet anymore.
    in my Network Coonections window, it does show that the wireless one has "Access to Network and Internet" while the wired one has "Access to Network only". I'd assume that the computer is smart enough to find its way to internet, but apparently not.
    is there a way to set a preference, so vista tries to find internet conncetion thru wireless first, before go on to the wired network?
    I konw this is technically possible, because on my mac, i can set in such way that it takes certain connection first
    thanks in advance

    I think I am getting it but still no joy.
    On the WiFi connection to FIOS Router I have manually set metric to 1.
    On Same PC in Ethernet I have removed gateway and set a metric to 10.
    Before I did this connection to Internet was very slow when the Ethernet cable plugged in and Interface Enabled. After removing gateway and setting metrics access to Internet AOK.
    I have working Homegroup, network printer but no Internet access from Hardwired PC.
    Cannot ping FIOS router @ 192.168.1.1 from hardwired PC. Destination host unreachable.
    NMAP Quick Scan 192.168.1.* never sees 192.168.1.1
    So, I'm still not routing properly.

  • Connected to network but unable to connect to the internet wirelessly

    I recently installed a new hard drive in my dell inspirion e1405 laptop and I can no longer connect to the internet wirelessly using the WRT54G v2. When I use ethernet it works. It says I am connected to the network. I punched in the WEP key and I am connected. I power cycled my cable modem, laptop and router several times. I followed these linksys suggestions:
    Checking the IP Address of the PC
    Checking the Wireless Settings on a Linksys Router
    Disabling Computer's Firewall
    Disabling Proxy Settings
    Pinging the Router
    Pinging the Internet
    and it still isn't working. I downloaded the firmware and that did not work. I am using XP MCE 2005. I updated the driver for my dell wireless card several times and also deleted it from the device manager and rebooted. Still nothing.
    Anyone have an idea?

    Well, hope this might help
    make sure you only get IP from the router's DHCP. yes, you must set Obtain IP Address for all network adapter on your notebook (wired and wireless). the basic is, all things will be fine if this IP issue is not around. coz, at behind, they do something more than give / got IP, such as creating routing path automatically. that which will be guaranteed the success of ethernet communication for wired and wireless.
    i cannot guess your problem, but you might want to do this.
    first, as above said, just Obtain IP Address, make it for both adapter on your notebook
    second, wireless security, must talk in same way (SSID, Channel, b/a/g/n) and use same key (WEP or WPA, passphrase/secret key).
    third, if anyhow you got connected but still can't go through internet, but, you can ping or access your router, for example, open your router web server to do some change of the configuration, means your packet is stuck on the router and cannot deliver further to internet and it is gateway issue. no else.
    well, three shots shall go but you might need more bullets coz this is called troubleshoot
    let's see how it will go.
    wish you luck

  • Cannot connect to internet wirelessly

    I have a Linksys WRT54GC Compact Wireless-G Broadband Router. I'm currently using it at home, via a wired connection. I have used it at home before just fine. I then took it to school and it worked there as well. But when I brought it home again I started having trouble.
    Home set up:
    Phone line -> DSL modem -> router 1 -> my router -> my computer (and a PC and a TiVo).
    I was not able to connect to the internet at all with my router in the mix (without it I could connect fine) and could see and connect to the router (wired and wireless). Linksys tech support was able to get me connect to the internet by having me plug the cable from the first router into the wired out #4. Does not make any sense to me but it works... for wired connections.
    I can see my wireless network and connect to it, but haven't be able to access the router configuration page wirelessly (recently), and I don't get the internet wirelessly... on my PowerBook. However I can connect to the internet with my nintendo DS, so the problem seems to be with my computer.
    Under my system preferences I get this when I'm connected through the routers wired connection:
    Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
    IP Adress: 192.168.2.100
    Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
    DHCP Client ID: (If required)
    Router: 192.168.2.1
    DNS Servers: (Optional)
    Search Domains: (Optional)
    IPv6 Address: fe80:0000:0000:0000:020a:95ff:fee0:0a0c
    Ethernet ID: 00:0a:95:e0:0a:0c
    At first when I connect via AirPort I get a whole lot of nothing:
    AirPort ID: 00:0a:95:f7:98:b8
    Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
    IP Adress:
    Subnet Mask:
    DHCP Client ID: (If required)
    Router:
    DNS Servers: (Optional)
    Search Domains: (Optional)
    IPv6 Address: fe80:0000:0000:0000:020a:95ff:fee0:0a0c
    And then I get an AirPort assigned IP address:
    AirPort ID: 00:0a:95:f7:98:b8
    Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
    IP Adress: 169.254.191.42 (self-assigned)
    Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
    DHCP Client ID: (If required)
    Router:
    DNS Servers: (Optional)
    Search Domains: (Optional)
    IPv6 Address: fe80:0000:0000:0000:020a:95ff:fee0:0a0c
    If I manually set the IPv4 to the same settings as the ethernet settings it still does not work. I don't know what to do. If you need more info to be able to help let me know.

    The 169.254.191.42 (self-assigned) simply means it isn't getting a response from any DHCP server/router.
    I don't think it's ging to work with the first router plugged into LAN#4. I "think" the problem is/was that router #2 was also trying to hand out DHCP, it should just be set to be a dumb hub, passing DHCP from the 1st one.
    Some Routers also need to be set to share the Wired/Wireless ports.
    Also, if you have both Ethernet and Wireless in use, the order of the interfaces in Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations is important, the top being used for Internet, but you can drag them into other positions in the list.

  • Issue in connecting to the internet wireless with my Linksys

    OK. Here's the deal. I am entirely frustrated and also over my head trying to solve this on my own as I have no idea what I'm doing.
    I have a Mac Powerbook, OS X (3.9). I have always connected to the internet wirelessly through my Linksys router (Wireless B Access Point, Model Wap 11).
    I have recently moved and now use Comcast for my internet. When they installed my internet, I had not yet unpacked my wireless router, so I was set up to be connected via the actual cable plugged in. Now that the router is all set up, I cannot for the life of me get my wireless to work. Currently, I can use the internet wirelessly in other homes/school no problem. In those cases, I don't do anything, I just turn on my computer and it connects automatically. But for some reason in my apartment I cannot make it work.
    I *think* the problem lies somewhere in the IP address area? If I look at my Airport settings and go to the TCP/IP tab, there is no information contained on the screen. Meaning, in the area where it says IP Address, Subnet Mask and Router, there is NO data listed, just gray empty space. The same goes for the DNS Servers and Search Domains areas, but at least in that case there is a white box to input text.
    I can choose the "Configure IPv4 Using DHCP Manually" and that will let me input numbers, but I have no idea if I should even be playing around with this.
    Also, perplexing me even more, is the fact that I can choose my Linksys internet connection through the Airport screen, and when I have selected it, I show full bars. But I can't actually connect.
    Silly me, I attempted to call Comcast for help with the issue, but they say that as long as I can connect to the internet in any way (plugged in) then they do not care that I can't connect wirelessly.
    I miss checking my email in bed...someone please help!!!
    Thanks a million in advance for any and all help.

    Are u talking about routers username , password? Well there is one routers username ,password (default is "admin") and the other is your cable ISP username , password (on the routers webpage). I am talking about the latter. If nothing works, try resetting your router ... You will have to configure it again (doesnt take much time if you know it).

  • My Satellite A25-S279 (WinXP) will not connect to the internet wirelessly since UVerse was installed

    My Satellite A25-S279 (WinXP) will not connect to the internet wirelessly since UVerse was installed. (Rather, I should say
    it 'connects', then immediately disconnects.) When I had regular DSL, there was no problem, but since UVerse installation,
    I can connect ONLY with the ethernet cable.
    Thinking it was my 'old' computer, I took it to the local computer place---they were able to connect instantly (wirelessly) AND maintain connection. Sooo...I've told this to ATT, & had 2 different techs out here, both of whom were very patient & tried EVERYTHING they could think of,  & both of whom failed to fix the problem. They maintain that it is NOT the fault of the modem/router, but is some 'miscommunication' between my laptop & the modem/router.
    Is that possible? Is there a setting I need to change on the laptop? If it worked BEFORE UVerse, and if it STILL works at the Computer store, and if it works WITH the cable, why won't it connect wirelessly?
    Thank you SO much for any thoughts!

    It is possible. While it's not common, sometimes you could have a working router and a working wireless card in a laptop, but they just don't communicate. It sounds like that might be the problem unfortunately.

  • Can no longer connect to internet wirelessly with Linksys WRT54G...

    Hi, all...
    I'm at my father-in-law's house. His home network setup is as follows:
    * Compaq desktop connected via Ethernet cable to
    * Linksys WRT54G, v3 (IP 192.168.2.1) connected via Ethernet cable to
    * Westell DSL modem provided by SouthEast Telephone (his ISP - IP 192.168.1.1)
    I set this equipment up for him about 18 months ago. His Compaq desktop connects perfectly to the internet, using the setup I described above, which I set up for him about 18 months ago. I *used* to be able to connect to the internet wirelessly (with both my IBM ThinkPad and my MacBook; my bro-in-law *used* to be able to connect to the internet wireless (with his Dell laptop).
    For reasons we don't yet understand, neither of us can connect wirelessly to the internet any longer. I have called Linksys, posted to their board, and read other threads here, so I am aware that MacBooks have some issues with Linksys routers. I'm getting ready to phone my father-in-law's ISP, to see if they can help.
    But... I don't understand why this used to work, but doesn't any longer. I would be very grateful for any help any of you great folks could provide, and I will gladly post here any detailed info on the setup that might be of help!
    Many thanks,
    Bill J.

    Thanks for your reply.
    Actually the Linksys 2Wire modem works fine in OSX and when connecting via a Compaq PC I also have in the house. It is just on the MacBook running XP that it fails to "connect". XP see's the network but cannot connect.
    Also, I downloaded again bootcamp and created a fresh driver CD, reinstalled the driver and received the same error: 1706 No valid source could be found for product Macintoish Drivers foir Windows XP.msi.
    I looked at the directory on the CD and it appears that there are no driver files, only documentation.
    I called Apple, got no help, called Microsoft, spent 1.5 hours talking to them
    they were no help either.
    I sent a messge to the bootcamp beta mail address informing them that it seems the drivers are not being downloaded with bootcamp.
    Thx again.

  • I have a Mac Pro 4,1 quad core intel Xeon running mac OSX 10.6.8 and I have just moved studios and now need to use the Internet wirelessly but there's no airport facilities on this model can anyone tell me what model of airport card I would need for this

    Instead of getting a wireless card for the Mac Pro, you might want to consider getting an 802.11ac wireless bridge device that would enable you to connect more than one device to it by Ethernet cable and to eventually take advantage of the faster 802.11ac wireless standard.

  • Need help connecting to internet wirelessly

    Please help. I just had Comcast high-speed Internet installed in my home yesterday. I opted for their free d-link modem and wireless router promotion. When I connect the modem directly to my g4 ibook, I have Internet access. However, I'm having trouble connecting the d-link router. (I swear I've read the directions, but I don't understand.) The Internet coaxial hooks to the modem. The modem hooks to the router. The tech at d-link told me to connect the router to my laptop to "configure it"--whatever that means. Apparently he did it for me through the Internet. But then when I unhook the router from the laptop to use the Internet wirelessly (that's the point, right?), I lose the Internet access. I consulted the Apple manual for help, but it seems to only give me directions for configuring my laptop for a wireless connection to an Apple Airport Extreme Base Station. I'm not using an Airport Extreme Base Station. I have a d-link router. (The tech at Apple said they're the same thing.) Do I need to tell my computer to recognize the d-link router? How do I do that? I am very frustrated at what is probably something very obvious to all you computer-literate people out there. Please speak slowly for me.

    Thank you for responding, Duane. Since I am at work right now, and my laptop is at home, I went to the AppleStore site to look up the specifications of my laptop. It has a built-in 54 Mbps AirPort Extreme (Wi-fi 812.11g). That's what you mean by an AirPort card, right?
    So it seems I'm ready? You say to make sure AirPort is enabled? I will check that as soon as I get home, but I do recall the AirPort icon at the top (a gray icon that resembles radio waves) and I even clicked on it yesterday--from what I could tell through my tears of frustration--but I think it said "no network is available". What do you mean when you say choose my "network name" from the AirPort menu? What is a "network name"? I must be doing something wrong.
    Based on my obvious cluelessness, you would be surprised at the ways I incorporate the use of technology in my classroom. I can teach my students to use Apple programs in amazing ways, but I am ignorant when it comes to a lot of the vocabulary that's necessary to work my way through this wireless router matter. Please bear with me.

  • I have a Linksys WRV200 wireless router and the wireless signal is not working properly so I cannot connect to the internet wirelessly. the wireless light has a fast green blinking light. how can I fix the router?

    I have a Linksys WRV200 wireless router and the wireless signal is not working properly so I am unable to connect to the internet wirelessly.  The wireless light is blinking green very quickly and I connect and disconnect from the network constantly.  How do I get the router to work properly

    Hello James,
    The flashing WLAN light means activity (data getting transferred). Try disconnecting all your devices and check whether the light is still flashing or disconnect the router from internet and do the check.
    Do you have your SSID as linksys or the default one? If your neighbor has the same SSID, then traffic could result from your neighbor's one. Try changing your SSID and password. Make your security WPA/WPA2.
    Hope this helps,
    Thanks
