• How to connect a second router WRT54G

  I can't get a signal through my entire House so I bought a second router WRT54G, running that the Setup disk affects only the first router so how do the other work?

  To connect two routers together, go here.

• Connection with a switch EZXS55W or a second router WRT54G to my router network WTR300N home?

  I have a home office in my basement with my computer connected to a lan of my WRT300N router that is set up on the first floor and networking with three additional computers to the floor as well. I want to add 2 additional computers in my basement and wireless is not a good set upward because the signal strength is very low. I have great reception on the floor and even on the second floor where my children are connected from their rooms. My question is: I have an older WRT54G Router I use is more and want to know if I can connect it to my WRT300N using the lan line ran down in the basement which is connected to one of the Ethernet ports of the WRT300N? If so, how the connection and set up the second router? Also, I can use Ethernet cables to connect my three computers to the second router or what I need to use the wireless of the second router? I was looking at the switch EZXS55W at the Wal-Mart local and thought that was my answer, but after a search through all the answers of the basis of knowledge here, I'm confused on the approach to take and which one would be the best game for me. Here, any help would be great!

  With the EZX you extended your wired LAN. You can still use the WRT54G to add another point for other cable ports and wireless access. Just do these 4 steps as stated in my previous post.

  You can connect the WRT54G the WRT300N or the EZX. Basically, it's all the same. You don't have to turn off the switch before you connect a device.

  If you want to use the additional wireless WRT54G, you can try to set up a roaming wireless network. Implement the WRT with identical settings as on the WRT300N wireless, i.e. identical SSID and wireless security the same (preferably WPA2) personal with a good password. Do not turn off the SSID broadcast on either WRT. Only the allocation of channels should be different at a time to avoid any interference. Now the devices should be able to move from one access point to another without losing the network connection.

  However, if you perform this configuration test carefully. I don't know how it works if you have a N Router and a G. If this does not work, use different SSID on both. You can then choose which SSID to connect to on the client.

• Add WRT54G: second router / access point, unable to get to the outside network.

  Here is the prob:

  We just got cable internet the other day and the cable operator insisted on using their v1000 Belkin F5D7234-4 instead of my WRT54G V8. So I thought I'd use the WRT54G as a second router/AP (without wireless/LAN/WAN). I was eager to do this by running an ethernet in the WAN on the WRT54G port and plug it into the port of the client on the Belkin, place the wrt - 54 G at the other end of the House and have the WRT54G broadcasting the same SSID and require authentication even as the Belkin and use the Belkin to Linksys Wireless Bridge. In this way, it will extend my wireless network and all computers can access the internet and the other (wireline customers will keep at wire-speed, wireless is not authicate to two different networks.)

  I can't get the Linksys network based able to see all the other computers outside the WRT - 54 G, even for wireless clients. On the side of things Belkin network, I can't ping the router even if she pulls a DHCP in the Belkin address. All customers the Belkin side can meet and thin internet. I've fiddled with the WRT54-g for almost an entire weekend now with no result. The WRT54G can see the other router as a DNS as well as external DNS providers, but none of the client computers can. Basically, I'm wanting to extend the network of Belkin 4 as most cable customers and fill a few dead wireless, and make the visible computer on the same network of suggestions?

  Parameters of WRT - 54G:

  Automatic configuration - DHCP

  Same domain name like Belkin
  IP router set a tire to the DHCP server

  DHCPserver OFF

  Mode of operation: router

  Safe are disabled.

  Wireless SSID is the same as Belkin

  Wireless channel is the same as belkin.

  Method and auth. key is the same as belkin.

  Belkin:

  DHCP is on.

  15 IP addresses available.

  Wireless gateway is on with the WRT54G Wireless MAC address information.

  Ethernet cords are connected.

  I played with static routes for hours, tried the option routing dynamic, even tried DMZing of the WRT54G intellectual property in the belkin and still unable to connect to the internet. Tried the Belkin MAC address cloning. Nothing seems to work. When I plug the WRT - 54G directly in my digital/Modem/phone cable box, I get internet and everything. I'm at the point of throwing same DD - WRT on it.

  But beyond connection "wireless" I discovered really does not work if well (drops random wireless speeds seize up) with two different pieces of equipment running two different firmwares. So the thing connecting wireless set was out the window.

  I however knew what I had to do Linksys firmware:

  1.) DHCP clients forward.

  Customers of Belkin - network

  Linksys customers - network B

  The dhcp pool was not get transferred to the client computers. That is the 1-2 on network computer had XXX. XXX.100 - 102 for 3-4 computers on network B was YYY. YYY. YYY statically set by Windows. Even after changing to a static address on the network A dhcp scope I could still connect to the internet or to one of the computers on the network.

  The static routing table seemed not lead me anywhere either, and I've tried dozens of configurations.

  The way I got it Setup is with the customer enthernet of the Belkin ROUTER to THE Internet on the Linksys WRT54G port 1-4. Maybe I should have plugged the ethernet on the client side of 4 ports Linksys?

  Anyway DD - WRT redirect DCHP feature was what I need.

  Regarding the scenario wireless two routers have the same encryption method and key but different channels and ssid. Who, with DD - WRT for some reason when I jump on the wireless-B, Vista will be ID it as network A (B).

  I hope that it has not violated anything except the guarantee which was anyway. The reason for which I needed for my network up this way is because I do a lot of work using VM (of various operating systems), is simply easier to have two separate semi networks.

• Configuration with a new router WRT54G

  Hello, friends.

  I have a Linksys WRT54g router which works fine, but the signal is not very good on some points of the House.

  So I bought a TP-Link 740n to use as a second router. My idea is to connect two routers with a 10 meters lan cable I have, to improve the signal on the points that are remote from the main router (Linksys) or separated by walls.

  How can I configure two routers to do the job?

  When the job is done, I see two different (one for each router) networks on my laptop or the 'original' signal (WRT54g)?

  I would be grateful if someone could help me. I know almost nothing about the configuration of routers.

  Thanks in advance.

• Router WRT54GS WET54G bridge question, the bridge to connect to a wired router?

  Hi all

  I have a wireless - g LAN using a WRT54GS router.  The existing wireless devices on the local network are 2 PCs, a TiVo unit (using the TiVo wireless adapter) and 2 WET54G Wireless bridges.  A bridge connects ethernet wired to a network printer.  The other bridge connects by ethernet cable to a reader Blu - Ray Sony BDP-S550.

  Security is WPA2-AES.  so far this works well, believe it or not, but I grew a lot older, making it happen.

  Now, here's what I would do: I would like to add another device LAN cable where the second bridge WET54G connects to the Blu - Ray player.  The bridge has only an ethernet cable connection, so I have to find another way to get the two devices connected to the wireless LAN.

  I have two other devices LinkSys, kicking around here that I can use.  One is a BEFSR41 wired router.  The other is a WAP54G Wireless Access Point.   If I can use one or two of those who in some way, I won't have to buy another camera.  It is the order of the day so far.

  Right now it looks like this:

  Router WRT54GS wireless wire WET54G bridge entry WAN router BEFSR41 son to two LAN devices.

  I have problems performing this work, assuming that it can still be done.  Can I get this config to work, or what I need to add the Access Point where the bridge is now, or...?

  Thanks for your time,

  Big Al Mintaka

  You already have a network working with your existing devices. What you're trying to include in your network is possible and can be done. Rather than plug the cable of the WET54G to the WAN port on the router, connect the cable to the router's LAN port. Disable DHCP and change the LAN ip address in the range of your existing network. It should work.

• Use the second router to extend the network to Time Capsule

  I have a v7.6.7 running Time Capsule 1 TB and older airport. I'm hoping to add a second router in a new location, and I use an ethernet cable from the TC at the new router (TP Link Archer C5), updated to the latest version of the firmware. The IP address of the TC is 192.168.1.1.

  I have set up my router C5 as follows: allocation of IP 192.168.1.199, value DHCP = off, and I connect a cable between the TC ports and port WAN (not Internet) available on the C5. In the C5 wireless settings, I tried both using the TC SSID and pw and creating a new SSID and pw. In both cases, the network will work for a short time, but eventually the entire network, including the TC, stops working. I made no changes to the parameters of the TC on any trial.

  Is it possible to use a TC and a router not Apple on the same network? If so, what are the right settings for the TC and the secondary router? If not, is it better to have the not Apple as main router and add the TC to the network created by the non-Apple router?

  Is it possible to use a TC and a router not Apple on the same network? If so, what are the right settings for the TC and the secondary router?

  Yes. That would be the basis of a network of mobile type.

  The key for a roaming network parameters are:

  • The 'primary' router must be configured as a router. In other words, it must have active NAT and DHCP services.
  • All other routers used in a network of roaming must be reconfigured as a bridge.
  • All routers must broadcast a Wi - Fi network that uses the same network (SSID, aka) name, and the type of wireless security, and the password.
  • All routers must be interconnected by Ethernet. To provide Powerline adapters using an Ethernet connectivity should also work.

  If not, is it better to have the not Apple as main router and add the TC to the network created by the non-Apple router?

  Should not really which is the main in the roaming network.

  I think at this point, your current circuit line. To check that, I would suggest that you consider to bring back the router C5 in the same room as you have the TC. Then connect it directly to one of the LAN of the TC ports. Complete the entire upward to a mobile network and test it. If everything works, bring back the C5 in the desired location, and then try again.

  If it fails, then the circuit line will be tested to check that it provides a solid 'Ethernet' connection between the adapters.

• Cannot access the configuration of my router (wrt54g) page

  I can't access the page of my router (wrt54g) configuration after the installation. The router works fine, but whenever I try to connect to 192.168.1.1 it says the password is incorrect. The first time that I put up I changed the default user name and password and I thought I'd simply forgotten, so I reset the device. This time I don't change any of the default values, and I can not even log on. I have to reset it several times, and you're just annoying. Anyone know how to prevent it from happening? I thought it might be a firmware issue, but I can not find all downloads for my version of road ' rs (V8). I use a macbook pro, osx 10.9.2.

• Adding a Second router to my LAN

  I have 4 devices on my network-

  1 surfboard cable modem

  2. router WRT160N wireless - 192.168.1.1

  3 Linksys 10 / 100 5 port switch wired

  4 WRT160Nv3 - 192.168.1.2

  My current setup is-

  1. first router modem. (WAN PORT)

  2 port LAN router for UPLINK port on switch

  The switch is located on the first floor, the router is down.  The router's wifi fails on the floor, so I bought another WRT160Nv3

  How can I add this to my installation?  I tried hanging the new router direct to a PC and configure it so that it is NOT a DHCP server and last slot the IP 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.2 and then sign a LAN switch port in a new router LAN port and the pc the new router cable.

  In the above configuration, NOTHING after the switch works.  I can't internet while the switch is wired to the router second on any computer of attatched to the switch.  Internet wifi won't get (from second router)

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I'm not trying to make a repeat using the same SSID, just try adding an access point on my current setup.

  Everything worked fine with 1 Router DHCP and then switch to the floor, but no wifi up there.

  I made myself, solved by removing the switch from the configuration.  I'm sure that I could add it back in after the 2nd router, but for some reason, it wouldn't work with her inbetween the two routers.

• Setting up Port Forwarding on router WRT54G, working with a WVC54GCA Wireless CAmers

  I have the equipment in question and you need to know a few things when it come to put in place for Internet access. Before I aske the question, however, I have the following IP addresses associated with this project: WVC54GCA - 192.168.2.102, router WRT54G - 192.168.2.1, the questions are:

  1. How do you define Port Forwarding on every element.
  2. Should the two articles have static IP addresses.
  3. Once the port forwarding is set, what is the structure of the URL to access the camera?

  Any help would be appreciated, summer tear my hair on it. Seems simple, but obviously not. I'm missing something.

  Thank you

  For port forwarding, you will first need to set the camera to a fixed LAN IP address (static).

  If your router uses the range of 192.168.2.100 thanks 192.168.2.149 DHCP servers, then 192.168.2.102 is an unauthorised fixed address.  With the Linksys routers, any fixed LAN IP address must be outside the range of the DHCP server.

  Here are the rules of use of the fixed LAN IP addresses with Linksys routers.  (Note: these rules were written for the 192.168.1.x subnet.)  Since you're using the 192.168.2.x subnet, change all addresses accordingly):

  With Linksys, routers, a fixed (static) IP LAN addresses must be assigned in the device that uses the address. If you need to enter the fixed address to the computer, printer or camera, not in the router.

  When you use a Linksys router, any fixed LAN IP address must be outside the DHCP server rank (typically 192.168.1.100 thru 192.168.1.149), and may not end with 0, 1 and 255.

  That's why any fixed LAN IP address would normally be of the order of
  192.168.1.2 thru 192.168.1.99 or
  192.168.1.150 thru 192.168.1.254
  assuming that you always use the default DHCP server line.

  In addition, in the computer, when you configure a static LAN IP address, you need to set the "Subnet mask" 255.255.255.0 and the 'default gateway' on 192.168.1.1 and "DNS server" to 192.168.1.1.  Note that some network devices can not use server proxy DNS at 192.168.1.1.  In this case, the value "DNS server" your real address of Internet DNS server (found in the router when connected to the Internet).

  It is also important that the same value static LAN IP address no two devices on your network.

  **********************

  After you gave your camera at a fixed LAN IP address, then go in "Port Redirection" in the router and configuring the ports one (or more) to the address LAN IP fixed camera.

  In order to access your camera from the Internet, you will need to either:

  (1) get a fixed Internet IP address (static) address from your ISP and configure your router to use this address, or

  (2) use a free service such as DDNS.  DDNS allows you to use a dynamic Internet IP address, but can connect you by using the same URL.

  I hope this helps.

• How to put in as a bridge wired by another router WRT54G

  I now have a provided verizon wireless router and want to use my wrt54G as a cable bridge.  Basically I want to use the WRT54G as a switch for connecting 3 elements that do not have a wireless (an A / V receiver, XBOX 360 and some storage networking).  The race is too long to have 3 connections directly to the verizon router, so I ran an and want the WRT54G to act as a hub of sorts.

  I plugged the release LAN of my router verizon at the entrance of the WRT54G, but no internet on the wired WRT54G no outputs.  I guess I need something to "bridge mode", but can not understand it.  I suspect also that I need to disable DHCP, assign a static IP address, and probably more, but I don't have a chance.

  Any ideas?   Help is greatly appreciated.

  What is the ip address of your router verizon?

  Make sure that the ip address of the router Verizon and both are the ip address of the router Linksys assume to be in the same network range. (E.g. Verizon router ip - 192.168.2.1, Linksys router ip - 192.168.2.2). Then connect the router verizon Ethernet cable to linksys router in the number in Port 1. Open the page of the Linksys router setup disable DHCP and wireless (as you say you want to 'use as a wired router wrt54G')

• Router WRT54G wireless does not work with the new modem

  Hi, I use my router WRT54G (Firmware version v2.02.7) on 4 computers for more than four years now, without any problems at all. However, today I had to replace my old modem with a brand new modem Speedtouch from my supplier, and although I made sure each cable has been connected properly, it just doesn't.

  The connection between my PC and the router (http://192.168.1.1) is good, but the problem must be between the router and the new modem. When I click on 'Status', he said: ""connection status: disconnected".

  After clicking on the 'Connect' button, it tells me that it "can not connect to the PPTP serverbe"

  Help, please

  Hi Matt,

  Although the resolution of this problem was a little simpler, I still thank you for your answer.

  The neighbor boy came up with the following response:

  «It just check the Type of Internet connection, cause you got an old type of modem before.» It will probably be set to PPTP. If this is the case, simply change it to "Automatic DHCP Configuration", click on "Save Settings" and everything should be ok then"

  And he was right!

  I am so happy

• Setup VPN on WRV210 as second router

  I'm trying to set up a network containing two routers, a primary giving me access to internet ADSL (a 3CRWDR101A-75 3com) and a secondary router which has VPN (Cisco WRV210).

  The main router has the following parameters of LAN: 192.168.0.1 / 255.255.255.0 with active DHCP.

  WRV210 has the following parameters of LAN: 192.168.1.1 / 255.255.255.0 with active DHCP.

  The cable connection is LAN port of the first router to second router Internet port.

  In this way, I'm able to get the Internet on 2 laptops connected to WRV210

  I also have a Panasonic IP/PBX connected on the second language (WRV210)

  I need to configure VPN on WRV210 to be able to get SIP calls outside the local network (via internet).

  As I am a novice in networks, both routers are the DEFAULT setting.

  I learned a lot during the last 7 days can understand the concepts of network management, but was unable to put in place the appropriate configuration.

  For example if I change WRV210 router mode gateway mode, I won't be able to surf the internet despite the assistance that says "the mode in which this router will work. If this router is hosted your connection of networks to the Internet, select gateway. If another router exists on your network, select route. When the router is selected, dynamic routing is enabled'

  Also I am able to ping the LAN 192.168.0.x WRV210 first but not on the other side (from primary router WRV210).

  I am confused to use and combine different settings (NAT, routing, Ports,...)

  I really appreciate if someone could provide a step by step to configure the appropriate network and be able to reach my IP - PBX on the second language of anywhere.

  Thank you

  Hi, Ghassan, port forwarding must be configured on the WRV210 router. The 3com device is basically a non-facteurs. If you need assistance with the creation of port forwarding, please call the small business assistance Center.

  I have a task to do.

  Two routers 871 work connected by tunnel by using the simple vpn configuration.

  On the second router is now 2 ISP connections, as a backup.

  How to configure routers to automatically switch VPN tunnel at a time where one of the ISP is down?

  First router:

  Apart from IP: 213.23.34.1

  Second router

  Out of isps1 IP: 58.34.5.225

  Outside ISP2 IP: 199.23.1.231 - backup

  For now I made the route-map for each ISP configuration automatically switch the outer harbour.

  Configured is 2 tunnels, but the other will not work.

  What to do next?

  On the router which has two ISP connections, the tunnel will be always using the primary link.

  That is to say

  If you disable the tunnel, but the main link is still active, then it will again create the tunnel using the primary link.

  If the second link is activated and you erase the tunnel, the tunnel should establish using the secondary link.

  A way to check what is happening is to use:

  Cree debugging isa--> for negotiations of phase 1

  Cree debugging ipsec--> for phase 2
