• Satellite M70: I can't connect to the WLan access point

  I have several wireless laptops, all work fine - except my M70.
  I use Intel Proset, and he sees the access point, but says "unable to connect" when I try.
  The signal is high (2 meters distance).

  I tried with WEP, WPA and without security. I am absolutely convinced that I entered the right keys.
  The access point is a Belkin Pre - N-, but I tried with a point of access 3Com, with the same problem - my Ipaq, my other PC, and all guests can connect,- but not my Toshiba!
  The wireless card is the standard Intel, with the latest driver from October 2006 intalled.

  Getting desperate...

  Hello

  If you get a signal strong, so I guess that the laptop is already connected to the access point. Or am I wrong?
  On my laptop, the computer WLan small icon appears only if I connected to the Wlan and then I can see the State of the signal.

  However, you suggested to use the Intel Proset utility to configure the WiFi network but on the clean Windows configuration. Have you tested it?

  This question seems very strange to me.
  Sometimes it of not possible to connect the WiFi network because of poor compatibility between the router and wireless network card.
  My router supports Wlan AB mode and my second card for computer laptop support BG.
  That's why I m not able to connect to the Wlan. Maybe it s also your case.

  On my router, I can also put the MAC address filtering. You should check this option on your router.
  But generally it is not easy to say why it happens. You know you should check every single option and if it s not possible so I guess that it s a compatibility issue.

• Can I use a WAG354G as access point

  I have a cable modem and a wired router. I also have a spare WAG354G when I had normal ADSL. Can I replace the router with the WAG and just use the other 3 ethernet ports and wireless so just use it as an access point? If so what settings do I or do I have to buy a dedicated router ap instead? TIA

  No you can not use this router as an AP with your Modem cable.

• I can turn my wrt54gs2 in WIFI access point?

  I had trouble with my wrt54gs2 and 4 360.  I tried a link that someone posted for me to a tutorial from cisco, it worked, but only for a 360.  I have a Netgear wndr3400, I HATE the wireless on this router.  His unreliable, but I like features, the network counter and the transfer of the comments, as well as his work with 4 360 out of the box.  It may be possible to turn off my wifi on the Netgear and plug the wrt54gs2 and its wireless?

  Thank you!

  If you intend to establish a LAN connection to LAN making the secondary router Linksys router in this case connect the WRT54G2 Linksys router to a computer and follow these steps:

  # Open the configuration of the router (192.168.1.1) page...

  # Go to the tab Wireless and provide the SSID network name and make the channel wireless at 6, 9 and 11... then save settings...

  # Then click the wireless security sub-tab, and then select the security mode according to the needs...

  # Click on the tab Configuration and make the router IP address 192.168.1.X (set according to the main router) and disable the DHCP server... Then save settings...

  After doing all these parameters one of the ports Ethernet (LAN) of the second router [WRT54G2] connect to one of the Ethernet ports of the main router [Netgear wndr3400] (LAN ports).

  Check the wireless connectivity...

• How can I connect to my mobile access point android phones?

  I have a LG Vortex with OS android 2.2.1. The desktop of my PC is Windows Vista service pack 2. I have a 3g Mobile Hotspot on my android smartphone and I would like to connect my PC to my wireless phone to be able to benefit from the hotspot and connect to the internet... A reply as soon as possible would be greatly appreciated. If I can't do this my phone can also connect to a VPN. HOW do I set up my PC and phone to connect to each other within a virtual private network?

  Hello

  If your Android device is defined as a hot spot and set up to tie the Internet, connect to it with a PC is like any WIFI connection.

  Using your Vista wireless capability you're looking for the phone WIFI SSID (wireless name) and connect you to the WIFI phone.

  For Vista, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928429

  In regards to the phone, Android configuration, as a hot spot is not so simple, the phone must be rooted and a special 3rd party apk tethering must be installed.

• Connection of comments on the second WNR1000v3 as access point does not connect to Internet

  I have a WNR1000v3 (firmware V1.0.2.68_60.0.93NA) connected to the WAN and it works well. His IP address is 192.168.0.1, subnet 255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.0.1, mask and DNS servers are on 8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4. DHCP is configured to 192.168.0.10 to 192.168.0.100. I have a guest connection configured and it works well.

  I have a * second * WNR1000v3 (same firmware) bound to the first as access by using these instructions: http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/23784/~/how-to-automatically-configure-a-netgear-route...

  I gave him the IP 192.168.0.2, subnet mask 255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.0.1, and DNS servers again the value of Google. It has the same SSID wireless as the main router and I can move seamlessly between the two. The devices connected to the LAN ports on this access point work very well. Wireless connection works fine.

  I then configured the connection even guest on the second router (the one running in access point mode) and I can get an IP address when I use it. However I can't access the Internet. Ping 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2, and 173.194.33.137 (the IP local google.com) all fail.

  Guest connection is not supported on a router functioning as an access point? Or am I missing something really obvious?

  Thank you

  Bill

  @storm1985 I suspect that your configuration means that all the second router LAN ports will also forward only to the Internet. But this gives me a good idea to use another router just like an access point wireless for the connection of comments. (I seem to accumulate old routers.) Unfortunately, I don't have the time to try this out until late in the week, but I'll certainly do and report. Thank you!

• 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.

• WAP54G Access Point using wireless mode, but not worked. :(

  I bought today WAP54G.
  My son and I have PC but we distance between our room each other and
  wireless signal is not strong enough sometimes.
  My son has wired Internet w / WRT54GS router and I have wireless
  USB G adapter to my room.
  Cat w / Linksys rep, the other day and he recommended buying WAP54G and I could leave this AP @ salon and do not need to have the connection cable.

  Anyway, I don't know how to install this customer service, called today
  and she told me that I need to install the CD in my computer. But there is no
  connection by cable or router and I cannot install CD in my computer.
  So, I installed the CD in the PC of my son who has wired Internet and
  router. The installation has been completed.
  After the installation, turn off AP and move on to the living room.
  Then, there is no "link" light on. Lamp only Power and act on.

  Tried chat w / online but offline and it is really difficult to chat w /.
  them.

  Please let me know:
  1. can I use this without wired access point?
  I would like to implement the AP @ living room (between my son and my room)
  2. which PC do I need to install CD? But once again, my PC have no cable
  connection and cannot install the CD.

  I am very beginner wireless and PC so please tell me step by step.
  I read manual and I used the installation CD Wizard but still do not work.

  Please someone help me.

  I think that you must configure your AP as Repeater wireless... Follow the link here , make sure that when you set your Access Point to the "Wireless Repeater" mode, this device will communicate only with a different Access Point Linksys (WAP54G) and wireless G of Linksys (WRT54G) router...

• Default access point

  With a router Linksys EA6900 and WRT54G2 v1 on the same network, the main router, EA6900, can be defined as the default access point?  The WRT54G2 v1 was installed to extend the network, and my laptop connects in 60% of the time.

  I use a program that identifies the SSID I'm connected with which I can identify the router by Mac.  To connect to a specific router, I can temporarily prohibit access of the device on the other so that I will still have access later if I need to.

  Thank you all!

• Valet parking can be defined as an access point only?

  I'm on ATT U-verse and must use their router but I wish I had an access point "N".  The new valet parking is adjustable as an access point only either turn off the router and DHCP functions?

  Technically Yes, but if you do not set up this way, you will not be able to configure it by using the software, will have to be a manual configuration...

  I recommend the following:

  1. set the Valet for default values (hold the reset for 10 seconds, then release)

  2. connect a PC to the Valet

  3. access to user interface to 192.168.1.1 (if resetting the password will be admin)

  4. go in the wireless tab and configure your SSID and security settings

  -Do not forget to 802.11n you use WPA2 personal security only, nothing else will not give you of top speeds speed

  5. save wireless settings.

  6. go to the basic settings and change the IP address to something different, which I suggest you to 192.168.1.2 (if using another device Linksys or Cisco, as this will help prevent conflicts when you connect your networks together)

  7. save the settings

  8. close the browser and reopen it, access the user interface to the new address 192.168.1.2 (or you have chosen)

  9. on the page basic settings, disable the DHCP server, and then click Save.

  10 disconnect your PC from the Jack and connect the Jack to your network existing (use of the LAN numbered ports to not connect the INTERNET port)

  11. Once you have the LAN ports on the Jack connected to the LAN ports on your existing router, you should be able to pull DHCP from the main router when connected wireless and surf the net...

• Use E2000 as ONLY - wireless access point not as a router

  I would use my E2000 router as an only Wi - Fi access point. The unit will be connected to a unit of combo modem/router Verizon FiOS Actiontek I want to leave only the first and only router on my network. Can the E2000 cause its router functions disabled without DD - WRT or other third party firmware?

  Thank you!

  Yes, but you need to connect a cable between the router to the AP, here's how

• My Airport Time Capsule can act as a WIRELESS access point

  Hello.

  I brought a Time Capsule with my Mac Pro. It worked well since yesterday.

  I have set up the time Capsule as a WIFI, bypass at my local network access point. There is a router (cable) works at home.

  It's my Mac Pro AirPort Utility and my iPhone, my Time Capsule is displayed with an exclamation point saying "device not found". I can't connect to the disk on this subject by afp share, or smb. Time Machine function is gone too. He failed trying to connect to the share drive from another computer connected to the time Capsule by cable network.

  But at the same time, WiFi works well.

  I tried to recycle energy. Sharing disk will be available. But if I start the Time Machine backup, it will not be a few seconds.

  Any idea?

  Thank you.

  There are several posts here related the issue.

  Luckily, you have set up your new Time Capsule for Back to My Mac (BTMM)?

  If so, the 'temporary' solution is to delete/disable the option of the CCMM, as follows:

  • Run the AirPort Utility.
  • Select the base and then station, select change.
  • On the tab of the Base Station, go back to the section of my Mac at the bottom of the window.
  • If you have entries here, select it and click then the minus sign "-" button to remove it.
  • Click on update and allow the base station restart.

  If you have not enabled CCMM, we have other options for you to try.

• can I use a laptop to set up a wifi access point?

  When I first received a laptop of opportunity in last December, a colleague tech at my night school mentioned that I didn't have to buy a 803,11 access point device to plug my switch, but I rather use a WiFi card on my computer to create my own access point. I told him I have such a card and put a little out of my mind.

  However, I have someone outside to spend the night at my place, and he needs to check his e-mail. Unfortunately, it seems that the RJ-45 socket on his laptop is broken, I have tried several cables and impossible to get a connection, including the cable to connect the computer I'm using now.

  Is it possible that I can use ICS on XP Pro (preferred) or Vista 32 bit Home Premium (really want to use it, I have never set the boot loader after the upgrade to XP on a separate partition, especially because XP has worked so much better) to set up enough connectivity for him to connect to the mail server?

  Should I Windows 7 or Vista to do this? I know how to do the reverse quite easily (share Wi-Fi on the Ethernet port), but I don't know how to set up the SSID and others. I would assume same WEP or WPA2 (Yes, I know how it is easy to crack, but it's better that transmitting passwords in clear text because it discourages occasional interception) would too, so it will accept a connection open, unencrypted. I'll just close access once it does.

  How could I go to set it up? I'm not spending money on software that is not free for one night, one-shot deal. Kiss, I just need a connection of bare bones for him. If its Ethernet port was working, I would leave him to plug my switch, but since it's not I need to create a gateway using what material I have on hand, and the only device with any kind of ability 803.11 is my own laptop.

  I know it's possible, I don't know if this is something only Linux, or a solution that requires 3rd party software.

  Yes, you can use ICS.  See http://practicallynetworked.com/sharing/xp_ics/

  I forgot to include this--> http://www.home-network-help.com/ad-hoc-wireless-network.html

  You will need to configure security manually from the properties of maps dialog box wireless (on both computers) and IIRC, you can use WEP in ad-hoc XP networks.

  Go to the correct place
  Right click on the wireless adapter icon and select Properties
  Click the wireless networks tab
  Click Add to create a configuration
  in the 'Association' tab, set the SSID, network authentication 'Open' and WEP data encryption.
  It's been so long that I made that I remember exactly, but I think you can use only the 10 digit Hex key.

• 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.
