WRTU54G-TM Internet/WiFi Help Needed

I recently just purchased this wireless router for phone service and I set it up and it works just fine, but my WiFi on my Nintendo DS Lite has stopped working. It worked with my last Linksys wireless router so I started trying things on my new router and these are the results. When I installed the new router it used a WPA Personal wireless sercurity, for my WiFi to work I need a WEP wireless security, so I switched it to a WEP and my DS WiFi worked but at the same time the internet for the 2 other computers in the house stopped working (the main computer's internet worked though). I switched back to a WPA Personal and all the computers work again but no DS WiFi, is there something I can do so my WiFi works and all my computers get internet? Thanks in advance.

WEP could definitely work for all of your devices (although it is a weak security, and WPA is far better and recommended).
"so I switched it to a WEP ... but at the same time the internet
for the 2 other computers in the house stopped working"
Sounds like when you switched to WEP that you forgot to change the settings of the other two computers from WPA to WEP (they are different). To fix this: change to WEP (if you must) and then reconnect the two other computers to the new, WEP network. Specifically, you'll just delete the Wi-Fi connections settings (now using WPA) and then Scan for Networks, and reconnect (using WEP).

Need internet (wifi) to watch purchased tv show?

Hello,
I am going on vacation to Dominican Republic with my one year old. I want to purchase some episodes for him to watch on plane, etc. Once an episode is purchased, do I need internet to watch the downloaded show??
How do I get the episode onto the ipad so that no internet/wifi is needed to watch it?
Thanks!

When you purchase a TV show or film on your iPad via the iTunes store app they will download into the Videos app - you shouldn't need to be online to access them once they have fully downloaded and are in Videos. You can also buy/download them on your computer and sync them to the iPad (again they will go into the Videos app).

My Ipad connects with my hotel wifi, but does not indicate that it is a secure wifi, even though it requires a password to access - no lock symbol, hence no password request, hence no internet access - help.

My IPad connects with my hotel wifi, but does not indicate that it is a secure wifi, even though it requires a password to access - no lock symbol appears against the wifi network, hence no password request, hence no internet access - help. My collegue who also has an Ipad can access the same wifi with ease, so it must be something to do with the settings on my machine, although checking the two machines, there appears to be no difference in the settings.

My experience with hotel wifi is that it's an open, and unsecured, connection, but unless you agree to their terms on a launch page, you can't go any further or connect. Sometimes I need to force safari to come up and even make it go to a page, to trigger the auto load of the 'agree to our terms' page.
Unless your machine is work provided so maybe could be blocked from unsecured net access?

Help needed about using wifi

Please can somebody tell me in words of one syllable exactly what I need to start using an ipad for surfing the internet? I want to use it to access web pages while I'm out and about. Do I need a contract with a phone carrier? Does it need to be a mobile phone carrier? Could I use my landline number if I have broadband access on that?
I just can't work out whether I can use the ipad straight away without doing anything or whether I need to involve a mobile or landline/broadband supplier.
Please help - I'm soo confused.

a Local area network also called LAN network is what most people use in their house
it's cables you connect 1 or more computers to get Internet and access files from eachother
wifi id 100% that!
just without the cable
you have wifi router with a password on
you go into the settings on the ipad and choose the wifi router name on the list and type in the password
and you're able to go online
if you are not within reach of your wifi network you need to reply on public wifi networks if any are aviable where you are at the given time some would be free some would require you to pay them for service
you only need to contact a phone carrier if you don't wish to use wifi because you have an ipad which along side wifi support 3g internet then you need to contact a carrier and get a micro sim and a contract
if you already have an mobile phone which qualify as a smart phone you may be able to use that as a wifi hotspot to get on the internet using the phone but in some places this require you to pay extre to your phone contract

Help needed asap! Will my IPAD 3G wifi work in another country with the sim of a 3G services provider?

Help needed asap! I want to buy an IPAD 3G + Wifi before I return to my country from the US. The problem is that I have GSM service providers in my country that provide 3G services but I am wondering if their SIM card would work in the IPAD? In other words, can I get an unlocked IPAD 3G wifi? Thanks for helping out

The AT&T 3G iPads (which are GSM/sim based) in the US are not locked (the Verizon models are CDMA based so they effectively are). So as long as you can get a sim in your own country you shouldn't have a problem

Help needed to somehow link ipad to internet via macbook pro's ethernet

Hi all
i have just picked up a new iPad 64gb wifi+3g.
I work on a ship where i have a slow but reasonable ethernet connection to the internet.
what i would like to do is use the MBP as a wifi hotspot or via usb cable to share the internet connection.
I have trolled the internet for help on this and managed ( i am pretty new to this ) to find out about sharing the internet settings either by aiport which i asusme is wifi and also usb iphone cable.
When i activate the airport the ipad sees the network and connects with all bars but if i try to connect to the internet in safari or bbc news app etc i get "not connected to the internet message"
can anyone help with idiots guide for settings i should be using on both MBP and iPad to do this correctly?
All help greatly appreciated.
Rgds
Kev

Hi
I have my MBP connected to the internet via ethernet cable and this is working ok.
I then went into settings and shared the internet by ticking airport / wifi and usb iphone cable. Both together and individually.
i setup a network and gave it a "test" name with and without wep 5 digit password and with and without firewall.
the ipad sees the "test" network and asks to join and i have selected this both with and without password.
Ipad then shows full bars on strength but no internet connection.
I have yet to work out how to do the connection on the iphone usb cable so nothing to go on there.
I will try again and make a note of the IP addresses on both and post them to see what you think.
As far as i can follow i seem to be doing it all correctly unless making a simple mistake along the way.
cheers
Kev

WRTU54G-TM router loses internet connection and needs to be restarted to regain connection.

We recently switched from a WRT54G to a WRTU54G-TM router from T-mobile and the new router seems to randomly lose our internet connection and needs to be restarted to regain it. It could be coincidence but this has happened a couple of times immediately after using our VoIP phone connected to it. I tried switching back to the old router and everything worked fine once again. Typically with the WRTU54G-TM it will stay connected for about a day or so and then it will need to be restarted. Although sometimes it will need to be restarted multiple times in one day. Just curious if anyone had any quick suggestions or setting configurations that I may have missed?
Thanks for your input.
Rylynn

I just added the T-Mobile@Home service and set up a WRTU54G-TM this past Saturday. During the first 4 days, the blue light on the router went out and I lost phone service - until rebooting the router each time. Phone service returned about a minute after rebooting in each case.
I did NOT lose Internet service while phone service was down.
I reached T-Mobile customer care the second time, and the rep I spoke with mentioned that she had a couple of other calls similar to mine earlier in the day. So far, the reps had no official word regarding this problem, and the word going around was simply to tell people to reboot their routers.
Tech Support had about a 20 minute hold queue, so I didn't yet to speak with a technician.
The phone service has been up for the past 2 days -- curious to see how long it holds up this time. Also checking the Linksys site regularly to see if new firmware (beyond the 1.00.04 I have loaded) becomes available - maybe that will address the problem.
When I complained to customer care, the one thing they did was to extend my "buyer's remorse period" to 30 days (instead of the usual 14). So I plan to hang on for another couple of weeks to see if this gets straightened out. I love the service, sound quality and price. Hoping it works out - I want to keep this!

My MacBook Air says it in connected to my wifi, but my wifi signal has a "!" sign on it. My computer will not allow internet access, help?

When you see an exclamation point in the Wi-Fi menu, from the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts. You may get a warning that Wi-Fi is not available, that you're too far from the base station, or that you're using the wrong password.
Assuming that you've ruled out those possibilities, restart the computer and try again. If there's no change, click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane and authenticate, if necessary. From the Location menu at the top of the window, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Applyand test.
If there's still no connection, and if you have control of the router, compare its settings to Apple's recommendations. Some third-party routers may be incompatible in 802.11b/g/n radio mode. Try setting the mode to 802.11n only.

Hi, i am not able to connect to the internet. wifi not working.

hi, i am not able to connect to the internet. wifi not working. not able to find proper drivers for 32 bit win.7 os. need urgent help..
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi:
I can give you the link to the wifi driver, if you do the following steps to post the hardware ID for the wireless card, so I can figure out what model wireless card the notebook has...
To find the hardware ID, go to the device manager and click on the device labeled Network Controller.
Then click on the Details tab at the top of the Network Controller window.
Now you see a Property drop down list and it is defaulted to Device Description.
Drop down on that list and select the second item (Hardware ID's).
Post the top string of characters you see in the window.

Hi all help needed I have a canon 40D. I am thinking of buying a canon 6D.
But not sure that my lenses will work.
I have a 170mm/ 500mm APO Sigma.
A 10/20 ex Sigma HSM IF.
And a 180 APO Sigma Macro or do I have to scrap them and buy others.
ALL Help will be greatly received. Yours BRODIE

In short, I love it. I was going to buy the 5DMark III. After playing with it for a while at my local Fry's store where they put 5DMII, 5DMIII and 6D next to each other, using the same 24-105L lens, I decided to get the 6D and pocket the different for lens later.
I'm upgrading from the 30D. So I think you'll love it. It's a great camera. I have used 5DMII extensively before (borrowing from a close friend).
Funny thing is at first I don't really care about the GPS and Wifi much. I thought they're just marketing-gimmick. But once you have it, it is actually really fun and helpful. For example, I can place the 6D on a long "monopod", then use the app on the phone to control the camera to get some unique perspective on some scenes. It's fun and great. GPS is also nice for travel guy like me.

VoiP on Nokia E51 - Help Needed Urgently !!!

I am located in Copenhagen Denmark and I use a wireless network to connect to the internet. My Nokia E51 is also able to detect the same network when I scan for WLAN. However when I try to use it to make a net call it says ''NO WLAN COVERAGE FOUND''.
Probably a step by step guidance to configure the following would be useful -
- Wireless LAN
- SIP Settings
- Internet Tel
Help Please

Hi
Thanks to bife71 for the reply. The phone was able to detect the wireless network and I was able to use the Gizmo feature to make calls. The network name I was using was ''Netgear''. But since one month I shifted to a new apartment and there the network name is ''NETWORK'', and when I tried to connect using my E51, the WLAN scan is not able to pick up the wireless network at all. I use the same connection to browse the net and the connection is good. But the phone is not able to detect this connection and I am not able to make calls.
HELP PLEASE !!! Telephone charges are lot in Copenhagen and I badly need to use the Voip function for which I bought E51.

Help Needed - Even after lodging "Presidential Complaint"

Help needed please!!To make a long story short I have been through nothing but aggravation the past week trying to get my phone working. Service call on 7/6 to install Fios Internet, TV and phone. Internet and TV work fine, but Phone has no dial tone, going on a week and a half now. Tried contacting the account rep who set up my account, her supervisor as well as tech support on numerous occassions.
They set a dispatch for yesterday, and when the tech called me to say he was here, he was at an address i moved out of 4 years ago, in another state.I get a call from someone saying the service request was being closed and I need to call in with the correct address, after telling that rep I would not do that, that Verizon should make the updates based on my TV/Internet records, she hung up on me. Called back into Tech Support and the best they could do was an appointment for tomorrow. I then called the Corporate number and spoke with someone who opened a "Presidential Complaint" and requested an expedited call.. well i have heard nothing since then other than an automated call earlier today sayin my original service request will be kept. Needless to say I'm very upset that after a week and a half I still have no phone service and it doesn't seem like anyone is real willing to help me. I'm sure I'll get billed in full even though one of the 3 services I'm paying for hasn't been working in a week and a half..
