Solved!
Go to Solution.

upgrade the firmware on the router and then reset your modem and router after upgrading (use the little buttons on the back of the modem and router)
and use the port forwarding for ports 88 and 3074 (not port triggering)

  • PC cannot find wired router wrt54g2

    I recently bought a new computer and wired it to the router and it worked fine. Since then I have replaced vista with xp, now when try to configure the router it says "cannot find wired router" in both LELA and when I try to setup from the disc.

    When you replaces the OS on your Computer, make sure the Ethernet Drivers are installed on your Computer. When your computer is Hardwird to the Router are you able to access Internet on  your Computer?
    Click on Start - Control Pannel - Network Connection - in this window check if you are able to see "Local Area Connection", Right click on it and click on Status and click on the Support tab, below it will display you the IP address. Check whats the IP address your computer is getting it from the Router, it should be 192.168.1.xxx.
    If you are trying to configure your router using the setup disk, you can exit from the setup and configure all the settings on your Router manually..

  • SBS 2008 cannot find local router after router is changed

    Hello,
    I changed the router on my SBS 2008 server. Because I wanted more speed anticipating increasing cloud demands for bandwidth (my ISP provides 100 MB and earlier router chokes @ 48MB), I thought my network would be faster if I used the router to provide DHCP
    since SBS only supports 1 NIC.
    That was a big mistake.
    So I disabled DHCP on the new router and tried to use the Fix My Network Wizard to "fix my network".
    The results are very strange.
    I got all the messages about opening ports discussed elsewhere on this forum. But that's not the strange part.
    When I run the connect to the internet wizard , it reports that it found the router and provides the correct IP addresses for both it and the server. However, it did not find my new router at all. Instead, it finds the ISP's router
    which, of course, it cannot configure. (How it picked the correct IP addresses is also beyond me.)
    The router is a NetGear SRX.... I reset it to factory, disabled DHCP and assigned the fixed IP and DNS server information for our ISP.
    Does anybody have any idea why this new router cannot be found and how to fix it.(I have read all the similar posts but none apply.)
    Thanks.

    Sounds funky, let's go back to basic and start from fresh. Try performing these steps in exact order.
    1. Disconnect all Ethernet cables from new router
    2. Reset the router to factory defaults, usually with a paperclip tip, check manual
    3. Connect a computer to one of the LAN ports, do not use the server
    4. Configure the computer's IP address, if needed, to coincide with router
    5. Log into router and configure LAN IP to match your old router's LAN IP
    6. Disable DHCP Server in the router
    7. Disconnect computer from LAN port
    8. Connect Server to LAN port
    9. As a test, you should now be able to login into router, from the server, do not make any changes
    10. Re-run the Connect to Internet Wizard
    11. The wizard may not be able to configure the firewall, that is ok, you can manually do it later
    12. Once Wizard finishes, connect ISP to the WAN/Internet port
    13. Log into router and configure the internet connection
    you should now have internet going now on the rest of the network.

  • I cannot find a document which I think I asked to save to icloud when I didn't have wifi so now only have .folder title and no content (pages document). How do I retrieve content?

    Back in September, I typed over a document, duplicated it and renamed duplicate. I think I then clicked save when prompted to save to icloud. At this time I wasn't connected to the internet. Now I cannot find the document but have found a .folder with the same name as the document I created but this folder is empty. Is there any way of retrieving the content of that original document created in Pages?

    I really don't understand.

  • Cannot Find WiFi router

    Just moved into new flat & though my Ipod touch can see the flat's wifi & connect, my Ibook running 10.4.11 cannot though it can see all my neighbours. Is there anything I can try. I have searched for the network name with the WEP passcode but it can still not find it. Any help would be much appreciated.

    I just had this type of problem with my Linksys router. I pressed the reset button on the router and it erased my set up info (bad move). I contacted Linkys support chat and learned that I had to run through the online set-up procedure again. Now my iBook sees the router.
    I don't want to send you on a wild goose chase but maybe all you need to do is set up your connection again.

  • I cannot find my downloads which I paid for from an application.

    I recently bought some media from an app which was free. They have come up on my latest purchases on my credit card.
    I can't find them as downloads on the iphone or the computer (when I have sunc the phone to the computer).
    If I go to the app and go to the item I bought, the only way to access it is to press the the BUY button again.
    Where are the downloads kept on the iphone?

    It has possibly saved to the Photos app, but depending on what the format of the videos is, it may not be playable on the iPad.

  • Nokia N800 Tablet - Cannot find a format which wil...

    I am trying to play a movie on my N800 Tablet PC. I've tried all types of video extensions, but, continue to get error messages. Can anyone recommend a software program that will convert a dvd to a file that the N800 will recognize. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I would like to use this on my vacation.
    Thanks so much!

    Hi chercom
    You could use video converter such as Slysoft http://www.slysoft.com/en/clonedvd-mobile.html or YASA:http://www.yasasoft.com/yasadvdtomp4/ which are just two examples.
    Find something that you can try before you buy, you are usually limited to converting clip of a few minutes in length but you can check the results before purchase.

  • Itunes for Windows 7, cannot find the album which was imported to my library

    Tried to import an album from a CD to my iTunes library.  The iTunes dislogue box said the music was imported but it is nowhere to be found in My iTunes Library.  I attempted to download the CD again and the dialogue box said it had already been imported.  Where is it ??? The operation system is Windows 7.  And, I have had no such porblems in the past.

    The first thing I would try is Missing Artist or Album not with others by same artist. I've also seen reports of people compaining that the Music section of iTunes doesn't list all their content. For some reason adding a new track such as the current iTunes Single of the Week is proposed, and even confirmed, as a solution, though to be honest I can't see why it would make any difference.
    If you make a smart playlist that should match your recent addition does it show up in that?

  • Presenter cannot find publisher 2010 on a PC running Win7?

    Help please...Presenter cannot find publisher 2010, which is installed on my PC with WIn7 OS please advise

    I can only respond to your original postings about Microsoft Publisher. Did you really mean Office? You threw us for a loop since we have no connection with Publisher!
    If you have Microsoft Powerpoint 2010 32-it version installed, then Adobe Presenter 7.07 will install in trial mode. make sure you are using the Presenter Trial from this webpage:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/presenter/
    If you wanted to install the trial and you ran into this error, it usually means you used an older version of Presenter which did not support Office 2010. It also would occur if you installed MS Office 2010 64-bit version. Microsoft does not recommend end-users use the 64-bit version of Office. They recommend 32 bit Office. Please check that version.

  • Murder on the Airport Express (AE 1st Gen cannot find Wireless while plugged in in the same room as the modem, router and Time Capsule

    First, the reason for my compounded frustration:
    I wrote a lengthy, comprehensive post on this late last night.  I submitted it and received a notice at this URL:
    https://discussions.apple.com/___sbsstatic___/maintenance.html?start=0&tstart=0
    It gave a message:  "A yellow sticky bearaing the words, "We'll be back soon."  and a typed message reading, "We are busy updating Apple Support Communities for you and will be back shortly."  Needless to say, it never came back.  This morning as I began trying to reconstruct the very detailed post I wrote last night, the Communities system offered me an opportunity to restore the post from last night.  Sadly, it contained only a portion of the first line.
    I'm going to try it again.  The problem inherent in putting it all in words last night, is that I no longer remember the exact wording of the error messages.
    I've never gotten this Airport Express (1st gen, purchased mid 2010) to work.  I thought it was working, but working poorly.  A green light on the device is, apparently, NOT an indication of connection to the wireless.  It wasn't workingl.
    Description of devices which use the network:
    I have a Broadband network with a modem. 
    It is connecteed to my 2T Timecapsule (purchased mid 2010). 
    Connected to that is a 24 port Cisco Router. 
    Not connecting to that, though showing a solid green light, is my Airport Express (1st Generation, purchased mid 2010)
    Connected to the router are many ethernet cables giving hard-wired access to:
    Printers (HP 8600 Pro purchased 2012))
    MacBook Pro (purchased mid 2010) and
    IMAC (purchased mid 2010).
    3 Apple TV devices (1st generation purchased early 2011)
    1 Apple TV device (2nd generataion purchased August 2012)
    Connecting to the Wireless Network are IOS devices (current IOS versions on all)
    iPad 2nd generation (purchased the day it was available) 
    iPad 3rd generation (purchased the day it was available)
    iPod (mid 2010)
    iPhones (4S)
    Description of Layout of Network/House
    My home is approximately 70 feet by 25 feet. 
    All Networking hardware is at one end of the house, the south side.
    Airport Express (1st Gen, 2010) has been placed in the middle of the house to boost the wireless access at the north end of the house.
    Ethernet cables are installed under flooring with cable ends extending up through flooring, and are availble to all devices with Ethernet ports..
    Description of Problem
    Investigation of the wireless access dysfunction with the iPad (2nd generation, mid 2010)  revealed no connection to the Wireless Network, in spite of glowing green light on Airport Express and Airport Utility screen.
    Description of actions taken to correct the problem
    Loaded Airport Utility on MacBook Pro.
    Airport Express shows green light on screen.
    Double clicked on Airport Express Icon
    Message that Airport Express was unable to extend the network
    Message changes suddenly to something about not finding the Airport Express
    Airport Utility searches Airport Express, attempting to read its settings
    Message appears:  Device not found.  Airiport Express was previously part of the network, and offers to let me "forget" the base station.
    I exit the error message.
    A yellow triangle bearing an exclamation point sits to the left of the Airport Express' Description
    Airport Express shows green light (as always)
    Clicking the link, "Other AirPort Base Stations" indicates no base stations can be found.
    Moved Airport Express to the room at the south end of the house containing all network devices
    Plugged it in with clear, completely unobstructed view of Time Capsule.
    Light on Airport Express flashes yellow and then turns solid green (like always)
    Bring Mac into the room at the south end of the house containing all network devices and the Airport Express with the green light
    Close Airport Utility on Mac
    Reboot Mac
    Open Airport Utility on Mac
    Airport Express still shows as it did in 1.1.7. above.
    Attempts to check Airport Express' access to Wireless network:
    Unplugged Airport Express HEY!  THE GREEN LIGHT WENT OUT!!!  ;0)
    Disconnected all Ethernet cables.
    Tested ALL devices for Wireless access.
    All devices access the Wireless network extremely well (dot and three curved bars) EXCEPT
    IOS Devices tested at the north end of the house. These devices show a blank where the wireless bars should be, and intermittently show a dot.
    Followed instructions contained in a similar discussion about Airport Express not functioning:
    Unplugged all Networking Hardware
    Powered off all Equipment which access the Internet in any possible way.
    Powered up all Networking Hardware, one at a time, in the order described in that discussion.
    Powered up all Equipment which access the internet, one at a time.
    Tested ethernet cablingAll equipment functioning.
    Tested Wireless access:
    Removed all ethernet cabling
    All devices, including IOS devices, access the Wireless Network perfectly EXCEPT any placed in the north end of the house.  Those perform exactly as they did in step 3.3.2.
    Connected all ethernet cabling.
    Plugged Airport Express into socket in the Network Hardware room at the south end of the house.  I get exactlyt the same results as before.  The lovely green light glows on the Airport Express.  Airport Utility reports Airport Express cannot find the Wireless network and also says there are no base stations connected to the internet.
    Still in Network Hardware room, I attempt to find other base stations by cabling the Airport Express to the MacBook Pro
    Airport Utility shows Airport Express with a green light
    I double click the Airport Express Icon
    Box says connection is average and status is (green light) Extended Network.
    I click Edit
    I go through each tab.  I note that in the Wireless tab, the Network Mode is as I had set it, "Extend a wireless network".
    Under the Network tab I note that "Enable Access Control" is as it should be, NOT selected. 
    Under the AirPlay tab, I note that "Enable airPlay" is selected.
    I click cancel and leave the Edit screens.
    Curious to know if Airport Express can find the Wireless network now that the device claims to be functioning as an extended wireless network, I disconnect the ethernet cable from the Airport Express.
    I watch the Airport Utility screen closely.  Nothing is happening.
    With bated breath, I double click on the Airport Express icon.
    The popup box shows "extended wireless network"
    I click on edit and we start the whole mess over again.  (See 1.1-9. above)
    Curious to know if cabling the Airport Express to the iMac (almost to middle of house) will offer hope and prosperity to IOS devices at north end, I unplug the Airport Express and carry its now-exhausted little body to the iMac, ethernet cable in hand.
    As I unplug the iMac from its ethernet access, I'm informed by Cranky Boy that no way is he going to accept that as a reasonable solution to his problem.  He will not live wireless while even one ethernet cable is poking up through a floorboard.
    Cranky Boy is reassured when informed that, though the Airport Utility shows the Airport Express connected, merely double clicking on the icon produces the same result as laboriously described in 1.1-9. above.
    After quieting Cranky Boy by reconnecting the iMac to the Ethernet, I return the Airport Express to the Network Hardware room.
    Again, curious to know ...  I reconnect the Airport Express to the MacBook Pro. I want to know if it will exrtend the Wireless network from its position one foot from the Wireless Network.
    I close and reopen Airport Utility (as I always do, but forgot to write)
    I click on the Airport Express icon (which bears a little green light like the other big boys).
    BUT THIS TIME, when I click on the Airport Express icon, the pop-up box says my connection is Excellent, the green light status shows, "Extended Network" and clicking on "Extended Network" produces the same old `Airport Express was unable to extend the Wireless Connection. 
    I click on the Edit option. 
    I buzz through all the tabs.  I cancel instead of update, leaving everything as it was (as I did the first time)
    I decide to go back into edit and select "Internet Options" under the "Internet" tab.
    Since I have no idea whatsoever as to what IPV6 is and what it governs, I decide to configure IPV6 to Automatically Connect and then, with a whole new set of opportunities, I leave IPV6 Mode set to "Tunnel" and then I learn that I will get to see what happens when  "Enable IPV6 Connection Sharing" is enabled.
    I check the other tabs to see if anything has changed in their menus
    Jesus Saves and so did I. 
    Apple updates and so did I.
    I am warned that my device and its network services will be temporarily unavailable if I continue. 
    It seems unaware that I am laughing uncontrollably at the suggestion that my device and its services will be TEMPORARILY AVAILABLE.  What?  An improvement in performance is warned?
    Life continues and so do I.
    I breathe deeply to decrease my adrenaline.
    Airport Utility flashes a red warning next to the Airport Express Icon and then quickly rethinks the matter and decides to show it as connected.
    I click on the Airport Express Icon.  This time my connection is only "good".
    I click on Extended Network. With a new-found consistency it informs me that my device is unable to extend the Wireless network and it chats with me about using the same Wireless password for my device that is used for the Wireless network access.  I did.  It is.
    I change my settings back to the way they once were, I save like Jesus and Update like Apple
    I decide to go back into Edit and modify the settings under the Wireless tab, changing from "Extend Wireless Network" to "Join Wireless Network".
    I save.
    I click on the Airport Express Icon.  My connection has degraded further to "Average"
    I click on edit just to see what will happen, but no further information is forthcoming.  Settings are as I left them.
    I wonder if the Airport Express would extend itself now that it has joined the Wireless Network.
    I click the Airport Express Icon.
    I click Edit
    I change the Network Mode from "Join a Wireless Network" to Extend a Wireless Network. Unfortunately, there was no option for "don't forget where the Wireless Network is!"
    I am still "unable to extend the Wireless network"
    I disconnect the Airport Express from my MacBook Pro.
    After closing and opening Airport Utility, I sit and stare at the Airport Express Icon.
    It has no light or error messages
    It has a yellow triangle with exclamation point
    It has no light or error message
    It has a yellow triangle with exclamation point
    I finally decide to see what THIS error messages says.  It says Device Not Found.  Patti Harada's AirPort Express was previously part of your network.  Check that it is still in range of your network and is plugged into a power outlet.  Click Forget to remove this base station from this network."
    I click "Forget".  Airport Utility has forgotten the Airport Express ever existed.  It has also forgotten how to find it again.
    I, however, am unable to forget how much I shelled out for this POS and fear I will never recover from working this intensely and tediously on documenting something so hideously inconsistent in its test results.
    I wonder if I should recable the Airport Express to my MacBook Pro
    I decide I've had about enough.
    I document this ad nauseum in the hopes that someone can read it THOROUGHLY and offer me a solution to my problem.  What is my problem?  I am so busy fighting off Alligators that I forgot I only came in to drain the swamp!  Ah, but I remember now:  Cranky Boy can't watch Netflix on his iPad (2nd generation) in the north end of the house.
    Any solution that works will do.  I'll buy another piece of whatever kind of equipment you think best.

    Well, aren't you all that and a bag of chips!!!!
    Oh what a relief!  What a RELIEF!  
    That just cleaned up my life.  And Cranky Boy is actually smiling!!!
    Houston, we've got dots AND BARS!!!
    P.S.  All my firware and software are always current.  If I spent as much time looking for a reset button as I spend checking for software updates, I mighta not needed to work at this!!!!
    P.P.S.  Airport Utility shows Cranky Boy's iPad as the Airport Express' Wireless Client!!!   Who knew?
    Thank you so much, m'Lord.  I am in your debt.  What would you have me do?

  • WRT54GL Wireless Router says "No Internet Access" or "Cannot find IP Server Address"

    I tried setting up a home network with my above Linksys router and can't connect to the internet now. I have the ethernet cable from my DSL Modem hooked into the ethernet port on the back of the Router. In port one, I have a cable which attaches directly to my laptop as I was advised to use a cable for initial setup of my home wireless network. I was able to get into the router to set all the passphrases and wireless security settings, etc. My ISP is PPPoe and I have entered both the UserId and Password that my ISP provided. However, upon clicking on the wireless icon, my system states I am connected but the status screen shows "No internet access". I have no problem connecting to the Internet when the cable runs from my DSL modem into my computer, so it's something to do with the router blocking it now.
    My ISP does not support my Linksys router, of course, and they tell me I need to contact the manufacturer telling me the router needs to be set up as a 'bridge" ??? There is no mention of anything like this in the manual and I do not know if there is a setting on the router that is somehow blocking my being able to get an internet connection. This is all still with cables attached. Again, I seem to be able to 'connect' to the wireless network but I now cannot get to the Internet thru the router...
    Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?  Thanks!

    Thanks, I did try the step by step instructions and changing the internet type to DHCP but still unable to connect to the internet. Setting back to PPPoE type, the error message now continues to say it "cannot find the IP address of the PPPoE server." I have reset the router back to factory defaults and reset the security and setup settings to no avail. My ISP (Juno), after providing the connection type, login name and password, stated I need to contact the manufacturer of the router and ask that it needs to be set up as a "Bridge".  ??? Does this sound familiar to anyone?
    My modem is a DSL 2Wire. On it's homepage, there is a field called ATM Encapsulation that is set to "Bridged LLC" but I am not touching the settings of my modem for fear of messing up my internet connection altogether. It has to be some setting on the router, is all I can think of. On the Status page of my Linksys router where I try to connect to the internet, once PPPoE is selected, the blank IP address and Subnet Mask settings are zeroes and you cannot enter anything into those fields. (I was going to try entering the address of my modem just to test if that might work...)
    This is very frustrating. Even tried the 30-30-30 solution I read elsewhere worked for someone. Nothing. Same error message. Once I hook the ethernet cable from my modem into my router, I no longer can access the internet because it keeps saying it cannot find the PPPoE IP address.
