access points and router

Hello.

would it be possible to have two access points wireless that will be connected to a router.

access points have the same name, if you log on to one or the other with all the problems.

If this is possible is it all there, I can get information on how to set up.

Thank you

It looks like you want a network like this:

modem - router cable - WAP1)))

|                                (((sans fil ou les ordinateurs))

|------------- WAP2 )))

SSID: even on the two WAP1 and WAP2

SSID broadcast: enabled on both

encryption method: even on the two

encryption key: even on the two

channels: different on each WAP.  You can choose any 2 channels but ideally, they would be at least 5 channels apart.  Usually channels 1, 6 or 11 are working perfectly.

Your computer will automatically connect to WAP with the strongest signal.  You can "move" from one WAP to another, however, it is best to do this when you are not actively downloading information.  This configuration would not interfere with file and/or printer sharing.

  • Satellite A210-171 - unable to connect to any access point or router

    Hello. I don't know that this is the right forum. Not something I do normally but since I am desperate to solve this problem, I'll give it a shot.

    So I bought a Toshiba Satellite A210-171 nearly a year ago. It has a built-in wireless driver.

    The problem is, however, I can't seem to connect to any access point or router. What I end up getting most of the time are so a message saying that I am connected but with limited connectivity which means I can't access the internet. At other times, the network in range will appear in my network list, (with a signal strength excellent), but once I have select a message appears saying that the connection attempt has failed. And at other times my laptop detects the network connection and functions smoothly.

    I do not understand of course. So if someone could explain to me why my laptop selects and selects Wireless connections, that it connects and how I can solve this problem, I would be grateful!

    Thanks in advance

    Have you tried to update the driver on your laptop?
    Check the Toshiba site for an update:

    And if you are already on this site check for a BIOS update.

  • WRT600N advanced routing problems / use as Access Point and switch

    Firmware 1.01.36 build 4 The WRT600N is connected to an existing LAN and is really only used as a Wireless N access point. There is nothing plugged into the WAN port; only the LAN port. I have NAT disabled. All traffic from a client connected to the WRT600N wireless going very well for the gateway and the Internet router. The customer experience is very good. However, there are a few minor issues as follows.

    1] Setup > Advanced Routing tab has only the following options; to do this, * not * have a picker 'Mode '. NAT, static routing and dynamic routing (RIP).    IS this NORMAL, OR should HAVE a MODE (e.g. switch) AS REFERRED to IN THE HELP FILES?

    [2] even if a connection wireless or wired to the WRT600N works very well, the WRT600N himself is unable to connect to the internet. It cannot connect to NTP to set the time and I can't ping past the gateway router using the ping of the WRT600N diagnostic utility. I ping the gateway 192.168.1.4 port inside, but I can't use the diagnostic the WRT600N ping ping utility something beyond this gateway port. The routing of the WRT600N table is below. THE GATEWAY SHOULD NOT BE 192/168.1.4? HOWEVER THE WRT600N DON'T ME LETS NOT CHANGE IT.

    Destination LAN IP Subnet Mask gateway interface

    192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.71 LAN & Wireless

    127.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 * LAN & Wireless

    Topic 1. Linksys, used to have a mode option to switch between the modes 'Bridge' and 'router '. The latest routers call it now better NAT power. Gateway mode means THAT NAT is enabled. Router mode means THAT NAT is disabled. The help files are probably a little bit over. But the option is still the same.

    Re 2. It's normal if you use it as only access point (i.e. do not use the WAN port). The router always takes into account that the internet connection via the WAN port, i.e. it will always use the default gateway on the WAN port. If nothing is connected to the WAN port on the router itself has no default gateway and therefore has no access to the internet. Generally, you are not able to establish the default route in either advanced routing page. It is a known limit of these routers if you do not use as a router.

  • routers and access points and bridges and lions and tigers and bears oh my

    I studied and I'm still lost. Help please.

    I want the following configuration.

    Bedroom #1: contains my cable modem and a wireless device (wireless router I think).

    Bedroom #2: notebook with built-in wireless.

    Bedroom #3: several components (computers, printers, etc.) that are located on a wired LAN.

    What is the only wireless device that I can add to local wireline in the bedroom #3 for the device on the lan connect to internet through the device wireless in bedroom #1 and also connect to the laptop in the room #2.

    I want to all devices in the home to be on the same network (net sub?)-simple file sharing, sharing printers, etc.

    After hours of searching the Internet, I still don't know if the required device in the room three is a wireless access point, a wireless bridge and a switch, a wireless bridge and a hub, a tin man or cowardly lion.

    Lost in Oz, waiting for the Wiz (i.e. you)

    The Tin man would be the ideal solution. It could carry the USB with the information in both directions.

    Without Tinman, it gets complicated. You have several options. Ideally, I would recommend to connect a cable and not rely on a wireless bridge. It saves you more wireless bandwidth, is faster and more reliable. If it must be wireless:

    Option 1: Get a wireless, as the Linksys wet bridge. A wireless bridge connects to a wireless network existing and bridges the computer connected to the bridge across the network without wire on the other side (i.e. your router, other clients wireless and internet etc.)

    Option 2: Get a more flexible as the Linksys WAP access point. WAP can be configured as a bridge but also as repeaters and other modes. A WAP browser may be preferable to a WET if you also want a stronger additional wireless signal in the 3rd room. However, a WAP browser is much more expensive and more complex to configure.

    If you want only by cable in the 3rd room or the first room wireless signal is strong enough for the customers in the 3rd, just a wireless wet.

    To connect these devices wired in the 3rd room get a switch. Do not get a hub (if you get one free somewhere). Today, most of the devices are switches in any case, I guess. Never connect a real hub in a wireless bridge. A switch manages all the traffic between the devices connected to the switch directly in-house. A hub can cause additional traffic sent across the bridge...

  • The question of the Access Point wireless router

    I am considered to be an amateur when there are routers so patient with me. I have a wireless router in my office and two workstations are hardlined (ethernet cable-joint) to the router. Then, in the living room, I have 3 devices (Xbox, BlueRay, directTV) I want on the network. Rather than running three office ethernet cables, I expect to have some sort of (reverse hotspot) where a device could hop on the wireless router and the signal I inflexible at these three devices. Not sure if this would require an Access Point or another wireless router?

    Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    I suggest that you try to find something on WET54GS5... is a bridge with 5 ports wireless if I'm not mistaken... but since it's under Cisco Small Business, I suggest you could ask more about it here

    Or you can see WET54G and buy a separate so you switch can accommodate other devices

  • Aironet 1140 access point / 1941 router question

    I currently have:

    -router (not wireless) 1941

    -Access point 1140

    Looks like I got the AP on controller instead of the standalone version.  My question is, the 1941 (not 1941W) has a wireless controller?  If not, is there a controller module I can add to my router?  Or I would return the AP I to the standalone version (or the 1941 for the 1941W)?

    Thanks in advance for any advice / help.

    It is not a controller which can go in the 1941. The controllers are quite expensive if you probably don't want to go this way in any case. Before you send the return of accreditation, Sue TAC and see if you can convert it to a standalone. Some AP support this, but I'm not sure of the 1140 series.

    It will be useful.

  • NAT is allowed between the Access Point and the WLAN controller?

    Suppose that the AP and controller communicate over a network of L3.

    NAT can be done between the two?

    For example, suppose that the AP is connected to a DSL router that is running NAT.

    Yes, I worked on projects where we did a DRY VPN with NAT. As long as the AP is routable, it will call home.

  • PS B110a - wireless configuration will fail if the network has multiple access points

    Photosmart B110a (CN245B) wireless AIO printer.

    I have several wireless access points using the same SSID to provide coverage over a large area. When you install the printer on the screen TouchSmart wireless installation fails. Print report reveals the following error:

    "More than one access point/router wireless was found which matches your network name (SSID). If this is not intended, your HP printer can connect to the wrong network. »

    In my case this IS planned but there seem to be no available option to answer "OK, just connect to any point of access by using my SSID.  If I turn off all but one the APs configuration complete OK. If I have to do every time I turn on the printer the printer is USELESS for me.

    Did I miss something?

    sijomi

    This should not be a problem.  I have a B110 (and another 10 or so HP wireless printers) on a network of airports with 5 access points and they just connect.

    Here are a few suggestions:

    1. don't use WEP - use WPA or WPA2 with a 13 + character password.

    2. enable the SSID broadcast on all access points

    3. do not use the MAC filtering acddress

    4. make sure "AP isolation" or "isolated wireless" is disabled.

    5. make sure that you are not on a private network, virtual, or connected to your network of comments.

    6. If different strings on access points do not work, try the same channel.

  • E3000 as or to get a better access point?

    Hello, I installed an EA8500 router as my main 'brain' The entire House is wired ethernet. I have a House of very good size, so upstairs in my room... the signal of the iphone is not the best... I had a previous firmware Linksys E3000 current tomato from my router laying around... so I have set up to work as a WIRED Access Point and it works fine.

    Now my question is... I would purchase say... An AC Wireless extender/access point? Is there a different big an E3000 and a real access point/range extender wireless?

    Thank you all

    Hi manofice. If you have a lot of wireless devices that are capable AC and having a challenge with the connection to the EA8500, then Yes, it may be preferable to get an AC range extender. But if only the iPhone was having a problem with wireless connectivity and you mentioned adding the E3000 as access point is working fine, then it is not necessary to get an Extender for the moment.

    Hope that helps.

  • Access Point WRT1900AC & Firmware version: 1.1.10.167514, it cannot be accessed the config page.

    Hello!

    I am a new user of router dual-band WRT1900AC . The installation has been updated instantly to
    Firmware version: 1.1.10.167514
    Release date: June 30, 2015

    My WRT1900AC is configured as a wireless gateway.

    https://community.Linksys.com/T5/wireless-routers/WRT1900AC-as-wireless-access-point/TD-p/847286

    Also, I have disabled firewall and uPnP.
    A tutorial here:

    http://www.Linksys.com/us/support-article?articleNum=140371

    Everything works except that without access to the router config page.

    The problem is, I can't access my page to config WRT1900AC Wireless Access Point and the only solution is to connect temporary exit HAND ROUTER LAN to WAN WRT1900AC, can I access my AP

    (after restart of course). Change after I return the cable to the LAN again and restart WRT1900AC. This works.

    Yesterday, I spoke with live chat. I received recommendations:
    "Once the router is configured to bridge fashion, page configuration accessible only using its new IP address. The new IP address can be found on the main router DHCP table. It is because only in LAN - LAN, the

    WRT1900AC will be his disabled DHCP. »

    I also saw Table of customer routers main DHCP but I have not found the IP address of my wireless WRT1900AC Access Point there. I think it is a bug in the version of the Firmware: 1.1.10.167514
    Page config in the case of WRT1900AC Wireless Access Point is isolated or possible only thanks to the WAN WRT1900AC. It would be nice if someone confirms that and maybe in the next version of

    fix. :-) I have a beautiful smartphone App "Smart Wi - Fi" and I can not comfortably use it due to this error/bug.
    Otherwise everything works well and stably.

    Thanks for your suggestion and a quick response. I have a feeling it would work then as you described. But how to set Internet settings in mode Bridge? I've already put a static IP address router IP address WRT1900AC. I see it with IP scanner.
    If I leave the cables as you suggest (hand router LAN to WAN WRT1900AC), the Internet does not work. In this case go to the config page, but Internet with other devices will not work. Also good Wifi, it works but can not access. How to set the Bridge Mode? (I think this is my problem in this scenario)

    IP address of the router (LAN):

    * If your main router IP subnet example is 192.168.0.x, then set the address of the WRT1900AC IP to an IP outside the range of the main router DHCP. Ex: 192.168.0.2

    How you try to configure your Access Point and where are you going to connect this AP?

    As you mentioned that you have a Thompson Speedtouch router, and that you have entered the same settings wireless to your router to the AP, and if you plan to connect the AP to another device, then it is not not possible.

    WAG54G will work only in Repeater Mode / Mode Bridge that with the Linksys router, with all other routers it only works in a Mode Access Point, it means you need to keep this access point wired to your Thompson Speedtouch modem always.
