Connectivity limited or no WAP11 when using WEP

Configure my wifi network with a former BEFSR41 router and WAP11 wireless access point. Have laptop with XP Pro that connects perfectly without encryption, but whenever I try to use WEP I get the error "no or limited connectivity.  When you are prompted, I type in the same password as the one I used for 128-bit WEP encryption while creating the WAP11 to my network. Am I missing a step?

Thank you

Hello. Welcome to the community forums at the homepage of Cisco.

Here's my suggestion: try to generate the keys with the password you are using. You do on WAP. Then use the keys on your phone, rather than the password.

I hope this helps.

  • Satellite Pro 4600: when I use WEP, I can't do any connection more

    Hey everybody,

    When I connect my Tohsiba Satellite Pro 4600 via map of build-in network without WEP wireless to an AP, there is no problem, connection is establische and everything works fine.
    When I use WEP, I can't do any connection more.
    Is there a solution to use encryption WEP 128 bit on a portable Thosiba Pro 4600 with build-in WIFI network.

    Thanks in advance

    What card WLan do you use?

    As far as I know the laptop must be equipped with LAN Wireless / WiFi Standard: 802. 11B ORiNOCO Mini PCI card.
    This card supports WEP 64 or 128 RC4 security.

    Everything looks like you WLan card doesn't support the same standards of security as your WLan router. You must understand that this WLan card is an oldie about 7 years.

    I think that the best solution is to use external USB WLAN which support the latest encryption standards

    Good bye

  • WAP11 - no assinged network using WEP address

    My 2.6 WAP11 connection (Internet) very well if WEP is not defined.  If WEP is defined, then I always get "limited or no connectivity" because "the network has not assigned a network address" even if a connection to the WAP11 is made.

    I use the WAP11 in normal AP mode with all default IP addresses.  There is another wireless access point in the network using a device of BlackBox, but I don't mean to bind or to fill these devices.  I tried matching the parameters of the black box and using the discrete parameters (WEP) for the unity of Linksys, but the result is the same "no connectivity" with the WAP11.

    Suggestions for helping you connect using the WEP would be appreciated.

    Ray

    So, if I'm not mistaken, your WAP is set up in AP mode and wired to the router and it does not work when you are not using security...?

    If so, check the security key on the WAP. As you use WEP, use Key1 as the security, not the password key. In addition, make sure that you type the correct security key, it is case sensitive.

  • Automatically use the wired on wireless LAN connection when using the docking station

    Hey guys!

    I use the my T500 with the Advanced Mini Dock @TheDude recommended in this thread: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T500-Recommended-Compatible-Docking-Station...

    I had almost a month now, and whenever I anchor my laptop I have to pass the connection wireless switch off hard or using FN + F5 and extinguish this particular radio.

    Is it possible to have the computer automatically choose the wired connection when it is available, otherwise use the wireless radio?

    I use Windows 7 Prof 64 bit.

    Thank you

    ThinkVantage Access Connections (AC) can be configured to do this. Change your location profile and change the order of the adapter associated with this place, for example, order first as Wired and Wireless second.

    When I am connected Wired and I pull the Ethernet cable, AC will switch to using wireless automatically. When I put the Ethernet back in, it starts automatically by using the wired and wireless don't report limited or no connectivity (which means that the switch has occurred). You will have to perhaps set up wireless in AC power options, i.e. disable radio when not in use (I did not sentence again).

    This could be similar to a docking station solution. Mine is without docking station; When I'm at the office and go to a meeting, I pull the wire and have continuity.

    Ideally, the CA should provide a solution. But it may take some fiddling.

  • Outlook has started to get a connection not approved when using firefox

    Outlook started having no reliable connection error when using firefox. Not sure why it started, but all the few minutes that it times out and I have to re - open outlook from google. He does not receive this error on IE or firefox android. I use win 7. I talked with microsoft and they say it's a problem of firefox not outlook.

    I tried the things:
    -Updated firefox
    -Updated antivirus
    -antivirus scans
    -disable the anti-virus
    -from firefox in safe mode.
    -clear all the cache and history
    -Disable all add-ons
    -system restore
    -past by mistake "untrusted connection" on the help of mozilla (does not solve it. There is no option to allow the certificate)
    -search on the net for a similar problem (found nothing)

    So far, it has been like this for a week and its starting to piss me off as it happened out of the blue.

    I solved the problem for someone else who has the same problem.

  • HP pavilion d4790y windows Vista cannot connect to internet unless you use WEP wireless

    I have a HP Pavilion with Windows Vista 32 bit home premium d4790y.  I can connect to my ISP wireless router using the HP internal network adapter, but the connection between the router and the internet does not work unless I downgrade the router security to WEP.  If I connect to the router via a wired connection, I can connect to the internet without problem even with WPA2.  I did all the troubleshooting steps recommended as reset the router to check updated network adapter, uninstall/reinstall the network adapter driver, driver release and renew the ip configuration, etc.  Information?  Is there a newer driver that is not recognized during the update search process?

    Hello

    It is a hardware thing and the wireless card does not support this. Changing the wireless card can be the way to go.

    Hello

    With Docking Station, you can connect all the cables for printer, keyboard and mouse, adapter directly to the charging station.

    So whenever you use a laptop, you have just dock the laptop on the docking station and not need to re connect all cables again.

    This will help you when you move frequently with the laptop.

    Docking station will save your time, outside any other aspect, that it has to offer.

  • E1000 only connects using wep

    I use the E1000 for months. I have 2 iphones, an ipod, a netbook windows 7 and a macbook connected wireless to it. It is set to wpa2/wpa mixed mode all this time without problem. Out of the blue: no wireless connection on any device. I restarted the modem, router, PC, phones, etc. I've updated the firmware. The only way I can get a wireless connection is to use wep. How can I return the best security and speed of wpa2?

    I did a 30 30 30 hard reset and started to charge. I reconfigured all my devices and left the default settings on the router. It works fine now. Thanks again for your help.

    Why can I never get a good picture on my imac when using Skype?

    I use the free Skype to talk to my friend in China every week. They always see me on their computer or phone clearly, but I can never get a good video of them, clues why? I see a good image of myself, but never of them. I can't adjust the settings of the built-in camera because they are fixed. Is this my router modem, which is 8 years old now. What is causing this problem. If you look on YouTube there are hundreds and thousands of good quality webcam videos then why am I having this eternal problem year after year? I've got El Capitan OSX

    If they can see you clearly, the problem is not on your side - at least not in your Mac. Could be the router or you internet connection. Otherwise: https://support.skype.com/en/skype/mac/
