WRT54GX WAN DHCP Problems?!

Folks,
I seem to be having a new problem all of a sudden. The WAN DHCP client on my WRT54GX has almost completely stopped working. All WAN IP addresses are all zeroes, and hitting Renew in the configuration program doesn't help.
At one point I unplugged everything, brought up the cable modem, waited until it connected, and then brought up the router, and that worked. But then I had to reset the router due to a wireless configuration change, and after that the WAN DHCP client failed again, and I haven't been able to get it working since, even though I've restored the factory settings and power-cycled the device multiple times.
I tried replacing my router with a compatible substitute (WRT54GX2), and although that worked initially, it soon started suffering from the same issue.
The strange thing is that if I plug my PC directly into the cable modem, everything works just fine. I can use the ipconfig utility to release and renew repeatedly without any issues whatsoever. It's as if something Comcast has changed about their DHCP service confuses the router's DHCP client but not the one on my PC.
Can anyone tell me what's going on?

hi...try this out....from a hardwired PC , get into the router setup page....here there is a sub-tab called MAC address clone....hit that.....enable and "clone" or "clone your PC's MAC" ....save settings...once done ...do an ipconfig/all and verify that the "physical address" and the MAC address that u just cloned are the same....then go to the status page and do a DHCP release/renew and check if u get a WAN IP.

  • RVS4000 won't get WAN DHCP address

    I just tried replacing a cheap domestic router/switch with an RVS4000 V2 on our work network.  This has a WAN connection to a cable modem for internet access via a dynamic IP address.
    When I first connected the RVS4000 it got a WAN ip address via DHCP of 192.168.100.11.  This is the type of IP address we get when there is an upstream problem with our ISPs cable network, and sure enough we had no internet access.  The RVS4000 was set to use DHCP on the WAN interface.  So I logged a support call with our ISP but they said there were no problems at their end.
    I then swapped the RVS4000 out for the original router.  This worked fine and got a WAN DHCP address of 77.xxx.yyy.zzz as it should.  Swapped back to the RVS4000 and back to the same problem of getting a 192.168... address.
    So, I downloaded the latest firmware from Cisco, which was V2.0.3.2 and flashed the RVS4000.
    I then tried again connecting the RVS4000 to the cable modem but this time it would not get any WAN DHCP address at all.  On the Status/Gateway page of the web interface it said that the WAN interface was down.  However, on the front panel there was a yellow light indicating a live connection on the internet port.
    Any suggestions?  I am assuming there must be a fault, but thought I would check for advice before sending it back.

    Hi Nick,
    Connect your computer directly to the modem, obtain the right IP address. Then put the RVS4000 back to the modem connection. Go to the set up, MAC ADDRESS CLONE, Enable this feature then use the option "clone my pc mac".
    Then wait 1-2 minutes and refresh the WAN.
    Basically this feature puts your computer's MAC on the router WAN interface. You can also use the previous router's WAN MAC if you know it and want to manually type it in.

  • How to resolve DHCP problem in Oracle for Cent OS

    Hi everyone,
    I want to install Oracle 10g on my new linux os CentOS. At very first step of system check, it warns me about having DHCP enabled and to use some static IP insted.
    I have already done loads of installation on my windows box so I know how to deal with DHCP by using Microsoft Loopback Adapter.
    But I dont know if there is any Loopback adapter available for Linux ? I have tried already to google but it seems that its really difficult to find the correct installation methods because most of "How tos" just ignore the fact that , web interface of EM won't work well with DHCP ( as far as i know :D ).
    So, is there any work around for this DHCP problem ? I mean linux version of microsoft loopback adapter !!! ... Also do I need to say that , its my laptop and I use it on various networks including starbucks and DD ;) ... so I guess , I can't go for configuring static ip for my physical card. my knowledge for linux is a bit primitive so it will be really appreciated if you can provide me step by step instructions.
    BTW, regardless of warning i have installed Oracle 10g, and as i had expected .... Web Interface of EM gave me an age old error ( web page not found ) when I restarted my laptop... which is because of DHCP.
    Thanks in advance for any help
    Peace,
    Jack

    Thank you guys for your advice. I really appreciate it.
    But this does not solve my problem. I dont know weather you guys know or not , CentOS is EXACTLY same as RHEL other then "support" thing. So I dont see any reason to switch from CentOS to RHEL. Another reason is , I have already installed CentOS on my separate partition , so I dont want to go to through all of that again :D .
    And even if i think to change to OEL( i have downloaded it already ) or RHEL , problem still exists ... " DHCP " ... how do i deal with it ??
    for my friend damorgan,
    a fixed IP address is preferable but if you need DHCP for some reason just do the install, build your database, and then modify the listener.ora and tnsnames.ora to point to 127.0.0.1 for the host. , I know I need fixed IP, but if I am installing it on my laptop and just for study purpose, Its really not useful to setup static IP and as i wrote in OP, life of student is very adventurous and we never stay at one place right ? so, its not possible to have static IP for me ( unless i use it with VMWare or something like that ) .... now question is, what is this 127.0.0.1 ip you are talking about ? Do i need to add it into HOST file ? A little brief explanation will be helpful here :) ... this stuff is damn easy with windows and i am sure that linux should have have work around of DHCP. I am writing LINUX , instead of going in to specific flavor because i think the solution will be same only the method will change, right ? .
    I also looked at the link David posted here , (to be honest , I have not gone through all OSes setup help ) , I can not find even a line mentioning about DHCP Problem. May be I am missing something , David can you point me exact link (if there is any) ?
    Any more suggestions guys ?
    Peace

    Hi Charith,
    It's looks like AP goes into Standalone mode due to it cannot reach your WLC. In flexconnect when it cannot reach WLC, it will go into standalone mode without rebooting AP. (in local mode AP will reboot unless it can find a WLC)
    Can you check your AP has reahability to your WLC all the time ? Where the DHCP configured for users ?

  • WRT54G (v5) DHCP problem (MAC, APPLE, MAC OS) -- How to fix it

    Ok, so I just got some instructions from Linksys support and apparently definitely got rid of the DHCP problem. Here they are:
    Please reset the router before and after the upgrade.
    To reset the router (make sure that the modem is disconnected when doing a reset):
    1. Locate the reset button of the router at the back panel.
    2. Hold the reset button for 30 seconds using a pen or a paper clip.
    3. Release the reset button and unplug the power adapter of the router.
    4. Leave the router off for 30 seconds then plug it back in.
    Click the link below to download and save the firmware:
    http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c=LDownloadC2&childpagename=US%2FLayout&cid=1115417109974&packedargs=sku%3D1127782957298&pa gename=Linksys%2FCommon%2FVisitorWrapper
    To do a firmware upgrade, you can follow the steps listed on this link:
    http://linksys.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/linksys.cfg/php/enduser/stdadp.php?pfaqid=557
    Reset the router again after the firmware upgrade. You can then reconfigure it for Internet and wireless connection.

    Hi, Malcolm:
    Thanks for the post.
    No, my new Mac Pro system does not have USB port on the Keyboard, cause I've opted for Apple's wireless blue tooth mouse and keyboard.
    I do have 2 USB ports on the Apple's 23" LCD display, and Two USB ports on front side and two available USB ports on the back of the Mac itself.
    During the Thanksgiving long weekend, I think I might accidentally singled out the cause of my problem.
    I have my HP printer and one multi-card reader constantly pluged into the two USB ports at the back of my Mac, and always tried to use the front side USB ports for the 1GB USB Pen Drives, and that's where the problem lays!
    When I unplug the Multi Card Reader from the back USB port, and suddenly all USB ports on my Mac works just fine with the Pen Drives!!!
    So, for now, I plug the Multi Card Reader in one the the front USB port, and the rest of the USB ports on the Mac work with Pen Drives flawlessly, it seems that I sloved my problem for the time being...
    As for those two USB ports on the back of my 23" Apple Display, They can not take my USB Pen Drives, as you've mentioned that it does not have enough power for the USB Pen Drives.

  • WRT54G V6 DHCP Problem

    I have a WRT54G V6
    I am use WPA 2 with AES
    and useing MAC Filering
    i have 1.02.2 7/02/2007 Firmware for the WRT54G V6
    - i think it may be the Firmware

    The firmware is the most current one on the site. There are no other options than that. Anyway what kind of DHCP problem are you having? Is your laptop getting "limited or no connectivity" when you try to connect wirelessly to the network?
    Don't use AES. Most cards are only compatible with TKIP.
    What kind of Wireless MAC Filter are you using "Prevent" or "Permit Only"

  • WRT54G v7 WAN DHCP client problem

    I've recently started having a strange problem with my WRT54G. Internet access is via a Cable modem and has been working fine for months, and the cable modem works fine so I suspect the problem is with the router. However the router is also working, mostly, so I figured I'd see if anyone here has any suggestions. Here are the details of the problem:
    The router WAN configuration was set to DHCP.
    It used to happily pick up a new IP address from the cable modem whenever necessary.
    One night the router stopped picking up an IP on the WAN side. (nothing was changed. I'm the only one in the house who goes anywhere near the router)
    Connecting the modem directly to a PC works fine (suggesting the modem's DHCP server is fine).
    Copying the WAN IP config from the PC to the router, as a Static IP, also allows it to work when the modem is plugged back into the router and the router to a PC (which is how it's setup now, but it's a pain to have to mess with the physical connections and manually reconfigure the router every time the modem drops a connection (which is another issue, but not one for this forum...)).
    So both the modem and the router seem to work except for the router's DHCP client. It works fine as a DHCP server for the LAN.
    The firmware was already upgraded (and working), I've followed the standard power-cycle procedure, I've released and renewed the IP via the Status tab in the web interface, and I've tried resetting the router using both the button on the unit and via the web interface to revert to factory defaults.
    Any suggestions?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I also had this problem which occurred after >2 years of the router working fine.  After changing MTU to 1300, cloning the PC MAC address, and power cycling the router and modem fixed the problem.  But I was curious to see which change did the trick, so I changed both back to the default (MTU = auto and not cloning the MAC address) and it worked fine!  I think the router problem is intermittant and may appear to be fixed by changing setting, but I fully expect it to reoccur. 

  • WRT54GS dhcp problem

    Hello, At our office we use a WRT54GS router (firmware v7.50.5) . The configuration is pretty simple : uplink switch -> Linksys router -> wireless & wired network . The local network setup chosen is with dhcp enabled.The problem is that the dhcp acts like a "dhcp-relay",it forwards the dhcp requests .And on the same vlan our wan is,we do have a dhcp server ; our computers get IP from there. In the setup page I have no option regarding "dhcp relay",it just doesn't work.Why it is forwarding the requests and not processing itself ? Thank you,

    problem solved,there was a loop in the LAN.

  • WRT54G2 V1 Fails to get WAN DHCP address

    Hi All,
    I have a new WRT54G2 V1 that works fine, with the exception it will not pickup a DHCP address from the cable modem.  I have gone through the standard steps assuring the modems, cables and computers work on other setups and have no issues there.
    The wireless and hub portions of the G2 work as usual. I flashed the firmware to the latest FW_WRT54G2V1_1.0.04.005_US and there is no change in operation, also the G2 responds correctly to a full reset to factory settings.
    On the router's reboot the WAN light comes on briefly (assume self-test), but remains off after the router is fully booted.
    Have I forgotten something obvious, or is this an out-of-the-box failure ?
    Cheers, 

    Once more step which you can try is, connect the Ethernet cable to the LAN Port 1 and the other end of that cable to the Internet Port of the Router and then check if the WAN light on your Router lids or not...
    If it still doesn't lid, then i think it might be the problem with the Router itself, and you need to replace your Router. 

  • WRT120N on non-default network and DHCP problem

    Hello,
          I have setup the WRT120N on my network with an address like 192.168.3.X, the problem is that I cannot setup the DHCP server to serve on this network, it is fixed on the 192.168.1.X.
    Is there a way to change this or I really need to setup my network around this router?
    Thanks
    Ivan

    These settings are not possible. You cannot use the same IP subnet on the internet connection and the LAN. Routing happens based on IP addresses and subnet masks. 192.168.3.* addresses are on the WAN and the LAN side. How is the router supposed to know whether it should route an IP like 192.168.3.7 to the WAN side or the LAN side?
    Actually the router should not allow you to set up this. Can you press Save settings with these settings and it is accepted? That would be a firmware bug. The LAN address should never be accepted with a internet address you have set.
    Your settings suggest you don't want to use the WRT as router but as wireless access point and ethernet switch to extend your existing LAN. If that's the case, the correct setup would be to switch the internet connection type back to Automatic/DHCP. Leave the LAN IP address as it is or set it to 192.168.3.11 if you prefer that.
    In addition, disable the DHCP server. (as you have it in your screen shot). The WRT cannot be a DHCP server when used as access point.
    Save settings and then wire one of the numbered LAN ports of the WRT to your existing LAN. Don't use the internet port! Now the WRT is a simple wireless access point and ethernet switch. It does not do any routing, DHCP, or similar.

  • LAN okay WAN DNS problem

    I've already found a workaround to this wi-fi related problem that I did not have with my pre-unibody MBP with Snow Leopard, but cropped up when I moved to a MBP with Retina with Mountain Lion.  Just wanted to ask whether anyone else has run into the problem and found a fix for it.  Here's a description of the problem:
    a.  My home LAN is on a Netgear UTM-5 and it is the gateway device to my Internet ISP.
    b.  When connecting the MBP-ML to the LAN wired (with LAN IP provided by UTM-5 DHCP), both Internet and LAN access are okay.
    c.  When connecting the MBP-SL to the LAN via wireless AP (with reserved LAN IP provided by UTM-5, not DHCP); both Internet and LAN access are okay.
    d.  When connecting the MBP-ML to the LAN via wireless AP (with reserved LAN IP provided by UTM-5, not DHCP); I have LAN access, but no Internet access.
    Upon further investigation, I find that the MBP-ML probably cannot reach the WAN DNS servers.  Ping of WAN gateway IP address is okay, but ping of primary and secondary DNS addresses fail.
    e.  When connecting MBP-ML to LAN via wireless AP (with LAN IP provided by UTM-5 DHCP), both LAN and Internet access are okay.
    For my network configuration, connecting the MBP-ML to my LAN via wireless AP with a DHCP provided IP address has no issues; but connecting wireless with a reserved IP address on the UTM-5 creates a problem for Internet access.  This was not an issue with my pre-unibody MBP-SL which connected using a reserved IP address on the UTM-5 for years and worked just fine.
    As mentioned, I found a workaround (connect wireless using DHCP).  However, I've not found the cause of this problem; just thinking it may be ML since my MBP-SL worked okay.  Some sort of security 'enhancement' blocking something??

    Yes it does, and ive found my problem. It was my iMac not functioning with connection sharing properly. I stopped it and started it again and there we go, fixed (i hope :))

  • WRT54G WAN DHCP issue

    my WRT54G was working fine but from last last 8 days
    i am using my router on a cable with a dhcp server
    but from the last 8 days it is not accuring DHCP
    in the status the ip is 0.0.0.0
    but if i plug the same cable on my system it works fine but on router there is problem. i have also cloned my systems MAC address on router, reset the router, checked the cables but ended up with nothing
    the private lan of router is working fine i connect my notebook and PC with and it all works fine but the router does not accuire an ip address from the cable

    Hardwire your computer to the modem and check if it's online. If it is, isolate your computer and your router. Hard reset the router for 30 seconds then powercycled for 30 seconds. Access the router's setup page, configure the wireless settings first. Then under the security tab, uncheck the block anonymous internet/wan requests. Then clone the MAC Address, and lastly, change your router's local IP Address to 10.10.10.1 and save the settings. It will show up as page cannot be displayed OR asks you to release/renew your ip. Power-off your modem and router. Connect the modem to the router's internet port. Boot up the modem first and wait for the cable-link/online/cable light to go steady. Then power on your router, wait for 30 seconds and then access your router's setup page using the 10.10.10.1 number and check for the status. You should have an IP address now.
    IF all these fail, upgrade your router's firmware first then repeat the above process. Make sure to hard reset your router after upgrading the firmware.

  • RVS4000 not acquiring WAN DHCP IP

    Hello.
    My newly bought RVS4000 does not get any DHCP IP address for its WAN.
    Router:   RVS4000
    Router Firmware Version:   1.3.20
    Cable Modem:   Motorola SB5101U
    ISP:   Charter Commnications
    RJ-45 connection between Cable Modem and RVS4000:   RJ-45 Cat6 Cross-over cable
    All computers are receving DHCP IP address but no internet connection when I connect the cable modem to the RVS4000. RVS4000 settings is all on default - there should be internet connection even in factory default settings since the environment is simple home networking.
    However, the internet connection is wokring when I connect the computer that the Charter technician connected the cable modem when they installed the service. But when I connect the other computers directly on the same cable modem, there is "Limited or No Connectivity" - that does not happen to the computer where the Charter technician connected the cable modem when they installed the service.
    Not sure how Charter internet distribution structure works but if my hunch is correct, Charter is recording MAC address of devices that is connected to their internet service; connecting other devices like additional computers and a router/gateway won't have any working internet connection since those have different Mac address(es). I thought of that since I tried connecting my laptop via Ethernet cable directly to the cable modem and does not receive any DHCP IP. I also tried the same connection on another desktop computer but to no success.
    Anyone knows if my hunch is correct or am I doing something wrong? Please help...
    PS.   I have tried downgrading the firmware but still the same connection problem.
    Update [20110412 @ 11:19AM]:   I tried it at my workplace's DSL internet connection [ DSL modem/router -> 10/100 Switch -> RVS4000 ] The WAN was able to acquire DHCP IP but still has no internet on both modes - Gateway and or Router. Please help...

    Hi Thomas,
    Thank you for posting. You can clone the MAC address of the PC that works when connected directly to the modem. First plug the PC into one of the LAN ports and log into the web interface of the router from that PC. Go to Setup ->MAC Address Clone. Check the radio button to enable the feature and press "Clone My PCs MAC". This will fool the modem into thinking that the PC is connected instead of the router. Reboot the modem and router and you should get an IP address from the modem.
    Please let us know if this works or not.

  • DHCP problem with wireless clients

    I've just set up this eqipment
    Router/Firewall ASA 5505
    Cisco WLC 2125 - Wlan controller
    Switch Catalyst 2960
    16 Ap's  AIR-LAP1131AG-E-K9
    Everything was working fine, but after a while there was a problem, spesially with cell phones with wlan and with some laptops. It seems a part of the users that has been connected, then loggout out and try to log in again. It seems that they then dont get dhcp. Can this be a problem with dhcp on the asa 5505? Or does anyone know of any settings that create problems of this type.
    Trond

    One layman's question:
    For DHCP to work, you already permit 0.0.0.0 to ask 255.255.255.255 for its IP adress (i.e port 67 in one end, and 68 in the other).
    When a client re-attaches ("logs in again") it will try to use its old adress (the one assigned by dhcp) and ask 255.255.255.255 to renew its adress.
    Does your ACLs permit the IP range assigned via DHCP to access 255.255.255.255?

  • DHCP Problem with ASA 5505

    Hi. I have an ASA 5505 configured for Transparent Mode. The Outside interface connects to a router (RV042). The router manages DHCP. With the 5505 in the system, all computers can connect to the internet and to each other, except for a few. The problem computers can be made to work if they are set to a specific address, rather than automatically assigned by the router. Some of the iPads work correctly, some do not. At least one Apple Notebook cannot connect even if I enter a static address.
    Consulting the documentation, I found that DHCP traffic (UPD Port 67 and 68) needed to be enabled via rules for the Inside and Outside interfaces. I did that in ASDM but now nothing works.
    I have pulled the 5505 out of the system and restored it to the configuration that worked for most of the computers.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated. I can pull a "show" run from CLI if it is useful.
    Thanks...

    Understood. I tried adding the "inside_out extended permit ip any any" command, but it made no difference. Because the implicit rule (permit ip traffic to any less secure interface) is still in the access list table, it would seem the additional extended rule is not needed.
    When I first received the 5505, it had an older version of firmware. At the time, when I entered any rule in ASDM it deleted the "less secure" implicit rule, which then broke the system since there was no path for internet traffic from inside to outside, as you have stated. With the newest firmware release, however, when I enter a rule, the "less secure" implicit rule does not go away.
    So, with help from the folks here I have made progress. Right now the issue is that when the 5505 in Transparent Mode is between the router and user computers, the computers cannot reliably get addresses that are auto-assigned by the router.
    Looking through the logs displayed on ASDM, I noticed the following curious statement:
    "6 Mar 31 2014 07:16:42  fe80::1131:41c2:3627:8339 63575 ff02::1:3 5355 No management IP address configured for transparent firewall. Dropping protocol UDP packet from outside:fe80::1131:41c2:3627:8339/63575 to inside:ff02::1:3/5355"
    However, I have configured a management IP address, and it is listed in the "show" document that I posted yesterday:
    interface BVI1
     ip address 192.168.1.10 255.255.255.0
    So, I am confused.
    I appreciate the help. I am new to the 5505, although I participated as a "friendly" in the ASA program some years ago. I recall a similar problem with that setup. Regrettably, I can't remember how we fixed it...
    Regards...
