• How to get the IP address Linksys WRT54GS DHCP assigns to a Wi - Fi connection?

  To connect the Linksys WRT54GS to a demonstration of Microchip DV102411 WiFi Comm card I need the IP address assigned by DHCP. The Administration WRT54GS log is enabled, but there is no incoming or outgoing network activity. The DV102411 can see the SSID linsys scanning for wireless networks and attached to it but once attached, I need to know the address IP of the DV102411 has been given by the WRT54GS.

  You can consult the router DHCP client table.

• Guest WIFI Linksys WRT54GS by connecting (v6) to ActionTec (verizon fios)...

  Hello

  I want to activate access wifi comments so that I do not share my wifi password main with the guests to allow them to access the Internet (for browsing mainly).

  I currently have Verizon FIOS as my ISP and use ActionTec (MI424WR Rev I). Unforunately, due to certain levels of firmware, allowing access as guest (via dual SSID) is not possible.

  I have an old router d LinkSys WRT54GS (v6) and I was wondering if I can use to connect to my rounter Verizon ActionTec providing guest network? I want to keep Verizon FIOS ActionTec as my main router that I have other devices connected and configured for it.

  So, I was wondering how to connect WRT54GS (v6) to my Verizon ActionTec rounter to leave wifi access without me offering me the passwd wifi main comments?

  My WRT54GS (v6) does NOT run any DD - WRT or OpenWRT f/w but it is running original LinkSys f/w (1.52.8).

  I want to know the following:

  (1) do I need to connect the LAN of router LinkSys LAN Port of Verizon ActionTec port? Or can I connect to LAN_port of Verizon ActionTec WAN_port of LinkSys?

  (2) do I need to disable the DHCP server on LinkSys?

  (3) can I create an additional SSID (with friendly passwd) on LinkSys for allow comments access this SSID while I access my original SSID of ActionTec?

  I went thru' http://www.linksys.com/us/support-article?articleNum=132275 and I tried, but my devices were not able to access internet when connecting to guest SSID.

  Thus, you can enjoy a few tips here. Thank you!

  Kind regards

  Diakité.

  Hi kamdard. You can actually set up the WRT54GS as a wireless network completely different from the one you are currently configuring it with a different name and a different password. If you want the host computers or wireless devices behind the WRT54GS to be able to communicate with the computers behind the ActionTec router then you can follow the method from LAN to LAN. If this isn't the case, then follow the LAN WAN configuraiton.

  Only, you will need to disable DHCP on the ActionTec if you follow the method from LAN to LAN.

  For easy setup, I have personally, suggest that you follow the LAN WAN config. This means that you connect the Ethernet cable between the LAN of your Action Tec port WAN or the Linksys router's Internet port. In this way, you don't have to disable DHCP in the WRT54GS and to access its configuration page via 192.168.1.1 anytime.

  Furthermore, what is the IP address of your router, ActionTec? If it is on 192.168.1.1, too, you may need to change the local IP address of the router Linksys 192.168.2.1. Once done, access the configuration of the WRT54GS page and customize the wireless network and the wireless password.

  Also, before all configurations, it's better reset the unit to default settings. It is done by pressing the reset button at the back of the routerfor 30 seconds while the power is on. Release the button and unplug the unit.

  Hope the above helps.

• LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP m276nw no network connection with Linksys HUB

  Hello

  I install my Color LaserJet Pro 200 m276nw MFP to connect to my home network using a wired connection.

  When directly connected to my router, the connection initializes and successfully receives an ip address. I was able to access all the functions connected to my router directly either wired or wireless network.

  I also have an old Linksys hub and when the printer is connected to the hub, it does not initialize the network connection. The hub works with all the other sevice in my network, including a few game consoles and a Mac Mini.

  Is there a network advance setting that I have to look?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I don't know if an IP address conflict is my problem as it is not a problem with another device on the network. But it is certainly a kind of incompatibility.

  I found a work around. I have an old LInksys WRT54GS router, I was about to sell and read that I could turn in a switch with a custom firmware, DD - WRT. After you have installed the custom firmware and following some instructions to configure in a switch (including setting a fixed IP address as you suggested), the router-turned-switch worked like a charm.

  So, it is definitely an incompatibilities with the Linksys Hub EFAH05W. Maybe this printer don't like hubs. I read the hubs do not succeed as a router or a switch network traffic only.

• Linksys WRT54GS Help - Bricked itself?

  Hello community,

  I recently inherited a router Linksys WRT54GS my boyfriend hasn't needed. I kept it in storage for about 6 months because I didn't really need, but yesterday, I found that lying around and decided to go ahead and plug it in, to see if I could use it as a switch to connect my computer, Xbox and PS3. So I plug it into the wall... And it seems dead. All of the lights on the front panel are turned off. On a whim, I decided to plug it into my computer, wired and test pings. I kept getting the "Network unreachable" error, and the router was not network. However, the light on the front corresponding to the numbers 1-4 port back lit up when I plugged my computer at each port. There is no reset anything else, even after a 30-30-30. Should what steps I take now?

  It is possible that the router no longer works. Have you tried to use the router when your friend gave you? If you are still not able to ping the router using its IP address standard, try setting static IP on your computer using 192.168.1.50 for the IP address and 192.168.1.1 for the default gateway. Once the IP static value, try to ping the router command and access the router page using 192.168.1.1.

• Linksys WRT54g printer share

  try to get the printer sharing to work on a new computer (Win 7)

  WRT54g is attached to the new computer with 2 usb printers (connected to the computer)

  {FW_WRT54Gv8_8.00.8.001_US_20091005.bin firmware update security - downloaded Linksys}

  This computer can share a printer on another PC on this network (XP) (wireless) Working Group

  a third - laptop (XP) - while it is directly connected to the first computer with a wire will share printers

  but when it is connected through the WRT54g wireless it does not find printers

  second and third computers are on the same workgroup (like the first) and accesses the other by the wireless

  If its implicit that the WRT54g is blocked somehow the printer share.

  This same router previously used to share printers on another computer (win xp) {but the laptop could never find printers}

  Final test was performed with Windows firewall, firewall spare parts and all the anti-virus disabled (and isolated from the internet)

  Check the IP address on all computers. Try to ping the IP address of a computer from the second computer.

  If you get answers from the IP address of the other computer it means that computers communicate with each other.

• Question to Linksys WRT54G password

  I have a router wireless of linksys WRT54G hard wired to a mac and I use the router to get your laptop online. Everything works beautifully. Now I have an iphone that I want to be able to use the same network on. When I turn on my iphone it finds the router which of course requires a password. I'm going in what I think is the password and it is denied. I am able to connect to the Web page of the router and access all my settings. On the administration tab, there is a place to change the password. I changed this and entered a new password, but the only thing that changes is the password that is used to get access to the web page of Linksys. (the web page that I can enter to change and access settings) am I wrong to think this would be the same password to my iphone application?

  Sorry for the long explanation, just try to give detailed information.

  Thanks in advance.

  Yes, it's the wrong password.  Look under your security settings wireless / wireless and you will find the password requested.  This will be a key/paraphrase or password depending on the encryption you put in place.

• Assistance using Windows using Linksys WRT54G wireless remote

  Please someone help me. I have Qwest DSL service, ActionTec Gt701R and Linksys WRT54G - Version 6.

  If I connect directly to the Modem, send a request for Assistance from a distance, the Expert can connect to me without any problems. Here is the IP ticket RA information-

  RCTICKET = "65538,1,71.215.174.28:38861;192.168.0.2:3389; trippc:3389, *.

  When I'm connected wireless using the WRT54G, send a request for Assistance from a distance, the Expert cannot connect to me with an error that the DNS cannot resolve the host name. I assigned a static IP address to my laptop and the Port 3389 to sent to this IP address, according to the Linksys support. She is the information the RA ticket IP for failure.

  RCTICKET = "65538,1,192.168.0.4:1293;10.10.10.50:3389; trippc:3389, *.

  The IP address in this post are internal addresses, the Expert cannot find them on the Internet.

  Anyone have this working? If you have, please send the instructions step by step that followed you.

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Problem solved on the Forum of Qwest. The modem must be changed to use "a transparent bridging. The the WRT54G must be changed from automatic DHCP to PPPoE.

  Public static IP and Port Forwarding have nothing to do with this issue.

  Thanks for your help.

• Wireless router to modem Homeportal 1800 HG 2wire Linksys WRT54G with questions

  I have the Linksys WRT54G, and I'm trying to use it as the router to my modem 2wire Homeportal 1800 HG wireless.  The 2wire has four ethernet Sockets in the back marked from 1 to 4 and a telephone jack to connect to the wall for AT & T DSL service.

  I have the phone jack connected, and:

  -an ethernet cable

  -to one of the sockets at the back of the 2wire ethernet

  -to the 'Internet' on the Linksys ethernet jack

  - and an ethernet cable

  -to one of the ethernet (1-4) at the back of the linksys

  -to the ethernet port on the computer

  The Linksys is unable to connect via the modem and reports that it may not get an IP address from the PPPoE server.  (Directly connect to the 2wire works well though.)

  Who am I wrong configuration?

  There is no side effect of bridge mode... It is one of the mode in which the modem function. When the modem is in bridge mode, you cannot go online with the computer connected directly to the modem... and you will get a 169.254.x.x ip address.

  So after you convert the modem into bridge mode, you must do the PPPoE settings on the router to go online via router.

• How LinkSys WRT54G v7 supports RTSP streaming service?

  Hello

  I use the LinkSys WRT54G v7 and I can see the RTSP videos using VLC player to m.youtube.com. Strangely, I can't play videos if another AP as the DLINK is used instead of LinkSys.

  I analyzed packages and discovered that RTSP server (youtube) sends RTP packets to the ports of the client which are acquired to the RTSP SETUP procedures. Then the Server packets cannot reach the customer because the hole of the UDP is not perforated to the AP.

  But, when I use the LinkSys, RTP packets can cross the NAT.

  That is my question. LinkSys offers NAT traversal for RTSP streaming service? So, why can't find a list of features on this subject from the LinkSys product information? No explanation for this?

  Thank you in advance for your help!

  1. None of the NAT helpers in the Linksys firmware are documented anywhere.

  2. If possible, they added a helper for RTP.

  3. it could also be that VLC player in front of the port with UPnP.

• Linksys WRT54G broadcasts simultaneously two wireless signals.

  Everyone knows the Linksys WRT54G Router broadcast two signals?  I did a wirelss security reset in my modem the other day and changed the name of the SSID broadcast.  Now I have the old and the new SSID broadcast at the sametime.  When I go into my router I see that a new figure.  My problem is that the new SSID I created is encrypted with WPA Personal and older SSID broadcasting still is not encrypted, anyone can jump on the signal.  The older SSID has been initially encrypted in WEP... I can't understand this.  Can anyone help?

  FYI... the new SSID signal is very strong and the most original is weak.

  I turned on MAC filtering wireless in order to prevent anyone with a laptop that is close to my network.

  Your router can broadcast only one SSID. If you have changed and configure WPA Personal then that's for sure.

  The unsecured "linksys" network is your neighbor. If you check the web interface of the unsecured "linksys" network you will see that it is another. See the status page.

• Port forwarding on Linksys WRT54G

  Hey I have problems with Port Forwarding on my Linksys WRT54G. The port, I need open is 28960. I followed guides and thought I did everything correctly, but his does not work. Here's what I've done so far:

  -J' put a static IP address and took a screenshot of my settings here:
  

  -Here is my page of port forwarding:
  

  -Under the ' security > firewall "tab I unchecked"Block anonymous Internet Requests ".
  -In addition, I tried to adjust the 'DHCP server' for people with reduced mobility
  

  Is there something that I don't forget or do wrong?

  Evreything is fine... Make sure that the DHCP server is activated (do not disable it)...

  The only reason why port forwarding does not work because this port can still report it as "Blocked", this only happens if you have an old firmware on your Linksys router...

  Update the firmware on your router, reset and re - configure from scratch and do port forwarding, see if it works...

  Download the Firmware from here

  Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware of the device: -.
  Open a page in Internet Explorer browser on a computer hard wired to the router...
  In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1... Leave name empty username & password admin lowercase usage...
  Click the 'Administration' tab - then click on the 'Upgrade Firmware' under the tab-here, click on 'Browse' and navigate the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
  Wait a few seconds until it shows that "the update is successful," after the upgrade of the firmware, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned to the same page OR it will say 'cannot display the Page.

  Now reset your router:
  Press and hold the button of reset for 30 seconds... Release the reset button... Unplug the power cable from your router, wait 30 seconds and reconnect the power cable... Now re - configure your router...
