BEFSR81 blinking Internet

I know that this issue is addressed by others but I did n no luck. The problem arose when I tried to use Macintosh Firefox and Safari, then update the firmware. In recent years, Firefox on Mac was able successfully to update the firmware on the Linksys router. No longer.

Attempts failed to update the firmware caused the symptom of Internet light flashing well known. I used MacTFTP to reinstall the firmware (2.51.4). The firmware update has been successful. The router works as expected and I can manage it via the Web interface. It's all good and well, but the Internet light flashes constantly always. Yes, I have reset the router after the upgrade.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

It is advisable to restart and put the router in the cycle after the upgrade of the firmware on the router...

He has no problem if the internet light blinks because it means that it is able to send and receive data

  • WRTU54G-TM internet light blinks constantly

    I just got this modem used on eBay to set up a wireless system at my parents home.  Whenever I plug the ethernet cable from the modem cable (Brighthouse) directly to the router, he moaned not being able to find an internet connection.  I restored to factory default, but no matter what I change the internet contstantly flashes quickly.  The led 'link' to the cable modem blinking constantly as well, but it has no effect on the Internet when the router to jump.

    Thoughts?  I am at a total loss.

    Solved my problem can be found on the forums.  I had to change some configuration settings on the router that I am not used to doing.

  • internet connection drops BEFSR81

    MY wired dsl-cable befsr81 router is giving up my connection whenever I try to download a file. I tried the latest firmware and also reset and restart my entire network without result. Whenever the router is running it down my internet, but when I use my cable modem my connection works fine.

    [NOTE] I used to run a befsr41 and he had the same problem and then I went down the firmware to Version 1.45.7 and which corrects the problem, why is there not an option to downgrade to my Befsr81?

    (Mod Note: edited post for the respect of the directive.) (Thank you!)

    Well after test my network works for more than three days in a row, I found the problem.   First let me preface what I say.

    #1: I know that this correction is exactly what was causing my problem and not something else that just happened to heal because I can reproduce this problem over and over again.

    #2: I'm not a noob, you have to ask, "Is the router plugged into SIPPS plug" LOL I've run Windows95 and linux game servers at Lan tournaments and data centers remotely via SSH for more than 7 years.   I think you get the point.

    #3: this is the dumbest bug or whatever you want to call it I've ever seen with any type of hardware/software in my ten years of using computers and operate networks.  AND IT LINKSYS'S FAULT.

    OK here's the fix

    The blue cat5 cable with my BEFSR81 must be used to connect the modem cable to the router.   I repeat that the blue cat5 cable can be used.

    I tried with any other cable I have at home and it is about 14 of them.

    When the blue cable runs from the router to the modem cable, the connection is well and all three of my workstations are connected.

    But when I use another in more blue ethernet cable that came with my linksys router router abandons connection.

    What kind of company are selling their equipment with ethernet cables.

    I thought dell was bad company.  Linksys has reached an all time LOW in my book.

    [EDIT]  And ook, your solution is ridiculas what the problem is.

  • WAP54G on a BEFSR81 - network a lot, but no internet...

    In order to save a few bob upgrading my network to wireless, I decided to buy a WAP to my wired LAN that works very well via a wired Linksys BEFSR81v3.0 8 port router. The alternative would have been to buy a 8-port wireless router which is not only relatively expensive but means basically I couldn't disable the wireless feature as and when I wanted to (no doubt someone will tell me there is a parameter that would disable the wireless feature but not so easily that disconnect the * beep * thing...) In any case, after watching and taking account of the fact that I was already using Linksys, I opted for a WAP54G unit.

    Setup was fairly easy, and after a bit of tinkering, I had network access superb but not internet whereupon be it wireless, including the laptop or the wii.

    I tried to use guided help which proved to be as well used as a chocolate fire since on my ROUTER support is no longer available because it was out of warranty despite the fact I'd just bought another linksys product (such as WAP). To complicate matters as I felt the need to phone NHS24 for blood pressure, they summarily directed me to a FAQ for WAP! I hear about not paying attention. The problem is clearly with the router since the WAP can already access the network (perhaps I'm wrong and I need to look at cloning MAC or maybe find some sort of Relay IP - I don't know what I'm asking). One or more tuther prevents devices wireless through and into the big bad world.

    That's why I'm looking for someone who pay raises constructive questions with the ultimate desire to reach a satisfactory conclusion not punt on drivel precrits to customers in the alleged assumption that have all been delayed and cannot read a bloody manual and attention.

    Can anyone help?

    Steve.

    Okay, I just need to clarify some things.

    When any device within your local network setting (anything on the side non-internet (WAN)) should have parameters that reflect your LAN only. Your router is any translation between your local network and the real world (Internet). The only exception to this is DNS. Some people find it is better to use external public DNS servers, particularly when it comes to games.

    In short, this is a generic installer that you can adapt to your situation.

    Router:

    LAN IP=192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0

    WAP54G:

    IP=192.168.1.245/255.255.255.0

    Default gateway = 192.168.1.1

    Customer:

    192.168.1.?/255.255.255.0 (? = anything that it is not used by the router or AP) remember that all devices require their own unique IP address.

    DNS = 192.168.1.1

    Gateway = 192.168.1.1

    I did not mention security, but all devices must share the same security settings.

    If the WAP54G is configured as a Repeater/bridge must be on the same channel as the device that it is repeat/bridge

    In the case where this is caused by 33 incompatible Firefox with your software driver graphics card/chipset, could test you for a while in Mode without failure of Firefox? It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable extensions, hardware acceleration, and a few other advanced features of Firefox. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

    You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
    • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

    Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still works

    After stops in Firefox, a small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not reset).

    Any difference?

    You can disable hardware acceleration for all modes in the Options dialog box.

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced

    In the mini ' General' tab, uncheck the box for "use hardware acceleration when available.

    This takes effect the next time you exit Firefox and start it again.

  • FaceTime Camera: the green light next to the camera makes a slow blink, and there is no picture

    MacBook (retina, 12 inch, early 2015) El Capitan 10.11.5 now ongoing enforcement.

    Whenever I try to access the camera FaceTime (FaceTime, Photo Booth Apps) the green light next to the camera made a slow blink, and there is no picture.

    The system report > camera > model ID: Apple camera VendorID_0x106B ProductID_0x1570

    The numbers of the vendor and the product are correct?

    The camera worked for 6 months passed and I used FaceTime several times without problem.  Several users are affected.

    None of the recent changes to the system.

    Since the problem began, I have:

    (1) installed Skype to see if one application other than an Apple app had a camera problem. Skype has no camera or.

    (2) improved 10.10.4 to El Capitan Yosemite.  Hoping that the upgrade would reload the application Face Time.   No change in symptoms

    (3) reinstalled the El Capitan using the OS X Internet recovery.  I have not used the time Machine.

    (Note for everyone, it was simple and painless and does not need to reinstall applications.)  I want to reinstall MS OS was too simple)

    (4) several other threads suggested to reset NVRAM and SMC memory, even if they do not seem to be associated with the prob. who - without success here tried either

  • Today firefox has made my yahoo mail page, internet explore and mail is running in

    worked well on firefox this morning and then when I came back to the blink of mail and a completely
    another screen and colors and white squares with letters and numbers, where the buttons were, nothing
    worked through advice to yahoo so I did a system restore and the same screen came up to the top... tried the
    account on another computer and it showed good... nothing has been newly installed or implemented to date.
    Changed to Internet Explorer and e-mail account, the buttons and the theme works, looks like that
    always has. I have also turned off everything, did a restart, my e-mail account is returned to the always strange looking.

    Once you are on the tab "Content" in the preferences of Firefox, you will need to click on the 'Colors' button in the box 'fonts and colors '. There is also a checkbox to allow pages to choose their own colors. I had the same problem of white background in Yahoo mail, but once I checked this box, everything's fine! I hope it works for you!

  • Drop-down menus blink and are not accessible.

    Multi-site blink drop-down menus and are not accessible. Why? I tried to restart and will by default nothing helps. This will not occur in Internet Explorer.

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

    Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

    Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.

    • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you will lose all personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

    Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

    If you keep problems also create a new profile.

  • Time capsule does not connect to the Internet! Help!

    I bought my own personal modem (surfboard SB6121) and activated with Comcast. I connect to my modem via an Ethernet cable and it works perfectly. But when I connect the modem to time capsule, I can't connect to the internet. I have already restored it and still nothing. The light blinks orange and 2 notification messages I get are no internet connection and no DNS server.

    anything else I can do?

    Apple routers have known problems with some modems... which you have chosen the second worst... SB6141 is most noted as problematic, followed closely by SB6121.

    The question is the more remarkable with the airports of model AC... If TC or AE.

    The perhaps impossible question of fixing...

    First of all turned off, looks that you can not be Exchange to the customer or to the router modem correctly.

    When swap you from a computer directly connected to the TC you MUST turn off the modem for about 15-20 min... you do this?

    Otherwise, it's what it takes...

    If you have already done this... Sorry it is simply the question of compatibility and will not work.

    Are you IPv6 zone you define IPv6 properly...

    Both flashes on the front blink continuously. I have reset the router back to the factory settings and it worked for awhile but then these lights began to Flash again.

    The problem, it's the original is that after a few hours or minutes I can't access the internet on my laptop. I have to turn off my wifi on my laptop and then turn it back on and then I can browse the web again.
