Help Setup home network (Motorola and Linksys)

Hello

I need help to set up my home network, I created a diagram using gliffy.com to see my current setup.

Currently all Wi-wired computers and connect to the internet successfully, i.e. with the default settings. The only thing I've changed is the password SSID and wireless.

I need help to know the settings that I need the contribution for the Motorola and Linksys routers so that all the computers can find in the network.

I really don't know what could be the exact technical terms, but if you would like more information I can gather. Thank you!

Linksys by Cisco - Support WRT54G

Motorola SBG6580 SURFboard extreme Wireless Cable Modem Gateway

Configure the Linksys with a subnet of the modem IP... 192.168.0.10 or anything that is free... Connect the modem on the LAN of Linksys port, rather than the internet port and disable DHCP server on the linksys. You will need to renew the ip address of the clients that are connected to the linksys, but then they will get dhcp from the modem and everything will be on the same network.

    Hello

    You are using a router that is easier or making an ad hoc network?

    Leave a message from Bob Cerelli:

    The bases for troubleshooting are:

    1. make sure that you have the same (e.g., 192.168.0.x) intellectual property regime.

    2 make sure you have the same mask subnet, gateway, and DNS IP addresses.

    3. make sure you can ping the IP address of the other computer. Failure, just to test, make sure that you disable XP as well as any other firewall.

    4. make sure that you can test other computers by name.

    5. make sure that you have the same workgroup name (note the spaces)

    6. for purposes of troubleshooting, turn off XP and completely uninstall any other firewall software. You can always add more complexity once get you it working.

    7 with XP, make sure you have the same user name and password that the person by connecting to other computers. The default setting for XP Pro is to require a password for network access.

  • Windows 7 Home Edition Premium and Linksys E3000 and configuration problems with Dell/Broadcom half mini wireless 1501 wireless adapter DWLAN

    I'be been on the net looking for an answer requarding my Linksys E3000 router and my card adapter Mini PCI Dell/Broadcom DWLAN (DraftN) haf installed on my laptop Dell Inspiron N7010 XL 17 R and the inability to configure the card so he gets the same speed-172 wireless MBps_ as does our HP Vista Home Premium SP2 Laptop and Desktop! Yes, I spoke with Dell who seem to think that all their problems Tech and resolutions can be found with their technicians of the Manila-based Super (Word of warning-do NOT enter into the world of the concierge program of Dell Tech who, after having been assured it is based in the United States, I agreed to be a beta tester and lost my harddrive despite numerous attempts to stop the technicians to access remotely to do stupid things - but the new live Webcam and learn the hard drive but got none of my software original Dell with it as promised, too - another story). In any case, after playing with the DWLAN share of Dell said they question-nope Linksys ' cuz of course my other two computers would be quick at the speed they do. So I get ahold of Comcast, who of course told me, it's a matter of DELL. I have the WPA2 encryption on a network secure, but because my router there is no way to set up a "secure" network guest unless I have disable access to him (seems odd, he says: it is not guaranteed when someone trying to pass over the network, has knowledge password-weird with this router) it is anyway with this mini half DWLAN and the fact that it is not near the speed as the two other wireless adapters. My problem is with the speed I found all kinds of tips for use between Comcast Modem and Linksys router to make your network hum. What I want for now is someone to tell me how to configure this adapter on this Dell computer, so it does the job, it should. I have a program of diagnosis with her and from what I see, I must get off channel 1 as there is too much interference, but before I go and change the settings of the router, I want the adapter to work - especially since it's about 100 Mbps slower than our other wireless adapters. Does anyone know what should be the correct settings for this DWLAN 1501 or that I now need a new adapter in this laptop as well? Thanks for your help.

    LindaSView

    Hi Linda,.

    Have you tried to forget an instant wireless and bypass the router and cable connect directly to the modem to see if you get the speed you want in this way?  Yes, I know that this means to temporarily suspend the internet connection to the local network and also means the creation of a special no wireless connection for this computer.  But it could help determine if the problem is the computer and the router or wireless adapter - which excluding at least.

    If it works fine, then you can pass the wireless problem.  Otherwise, if it is still slow with a direct link, then you may need to consider another problem is involved and the router and adapter can actually be very well and you need to focus on all that is the bottleneck.

    I'm suggesting this to eliminate the possibilities that can be the underlying cause, while you spend your time on the development of bad (although I admit that I think that you are right and it is more likely - it can be useful a test just to be sure).

    Good luck!

  • Transfer of large files on home network freezes and stop the transfer

    I have a HP Desktop running Windows 7 and laptop HP on Vista 64-bit. I have two networked computers on a home network with a 3Com network 10/100 16-port switch.  When I try to transfer files greater than approximately 2.5 gigabytes between two PCs, file transfer will hang and stop after about 2.5 gigabits. Below the size of this file, generally no problem, the transfer ends. The two PCs have file sharing turned on and as mentioned on any file less than 2.5 gigabits transfer / very well.  Is there some sort of transfer of files, size limit on Windows Vista and 7 OS?  Are there settings that I can change to allow to transfer large files? I got an old Sony PC running Windows XP and I could transfer files more than 2.5 gibabits to my storage device shared networked home without any problem.  But under Vista and 7 OS, even once, I can't transfer any file more 2.5 gigabits to my home network shared storage device.  Anyone has any ideas how to solve this problem? Thank you. NEOhio123

    I fixed this problem on my laptop running Windows Vista 64 bit. I remembered that first of all, this started occurring after that I used the IOLO System Mechanic 9 network optimization tool to optimize the settings of my network on my laptop.  So I ran the cancellation on my Windows Vista laptop, and now the laptop with Vista will once more to transfer large files. If a note to all of you who use System Mechanic... do not function of optimization of the network on a Vista PC tool run... .or if you wash and start experiencing problems of transfer of large files... run the cancel this function and rebooting.  You should be able to transfer large files again. I just sent IOLO an email to warn of this problem with the optimization tool of the network within their product of System Mechanic 9.

    UNFORTUNATELY, my new desktop computer running that Windows 7 has still this problem , it stops file transfers after about 2.5 gigabits are sent to my device of storage attached to the network or the laptop. I learned that this seems to be a problem in a way. I can pull large files of my storage device, network or laptop, I can not just to transfer large files to these devices with the Windows 7 desktop. So if anyone has any ideas of how to resolve this problem of transferring large files with Windows 7, I would appreciate your insight.

  • EA6900 home network IP and DHCP question

    I have a T1 (I live in a remote area).  The T1 is delivered in an extension of ZPhone T1 network that is connected to a netopia router. The router is connected to my switch and all other network connections come from the switch. I replaced a previous router linksys with an EA6900 wireless.  I unplugged the old, dead, plugged in the new in the same port of the switch.

    Everything went well and I can connect, but the EA6900 starts on a different network address 10.x.x.x

    The netopia is located in NAT to 192.168.1.x de.100 a.199.  I put the EA6900 start at 200 and serve up to 254.  When I apply this, I get a message that the router is up-to-date, then I lose connectivity and when it reconnects, it serves up a 10.x.x.x. yet once.

    Any ideas how to get it on the 192.168.1.x network?

    Thanks in advance.

    Ken

    If you want to use the 6900 as a past or wired AP, you can turn off the DHCP server on the router, assign a static IP address to the IP address of router 6900, something like 192.168.1.50, clear all the other features on the 6900 as firewall, QoS features and what is not necessary accept for the wireless and use the 6900 wired AP. This will put the 6900 devices and any connection to it, to use the routers main host IP address pool and be on the net of sub 192.168. If you do this, connect the cable from the router main host to one of the LAN ports behind the 6900, do not use the WAN or yellow marked internet port. It is not used in this configuration.

  • Upgraded home network - will this work?

    I'm looking to upgrade my home network devices and have some questions about devices that I did some research and looking to buy.

    WRT 1900 ACS router, switch SE 4008 WRT, of 6500 RE HG AC1200 extender

    If possible I would like the 6500 RE HG as a WAP user, is it possible?  I know there's a 300N WAP browser, but I want to take advantage of the RE 6500 port speeds and speeds of speeds\simultaneous updated wireless band.  My thought is to have the WRT 1900 ACS in a place that will pass to the SE 4008 in another place that feed the RE 6500 Hg in another place like a WAP browser.  I would prefer hard line the RE HG 6500.

    Any help is appreciated!

    Hi, DblDeuce. Linksys RE6500HG will only act as a signal Repeater wireless to your existing Wi - Fi router or Access Point, and it is not a feature must be configured as an access point. However, you can try to look at the LAN-to-LAN or LAN-to-WAN waterfall with the Linksys router on your network configuration of your choice. Check out this link as a guide.

    You can also use a power adapter line for your network configuration. Check out this link.

    Can I wireless home from my phone, so it CAN connect.

    I updated my firmware to the router (Linksys WRT150N), strengthened the WPA2-Personal security and restarted the router. Nothing helps.

  • Home network shuts down if my computer shuts down

    My computer is connected to the router which is connected to a modem cable, but if I turn off my computer, home network stops and no one can access wireless or wired internet.   Everything has its own power plug and this is just the internet that is lost.  Shared printers continue to work properly.  I want to make access to the Internet independent of my computer.  How can I do this?

  • Need help setting up network home (Windows 7 Professional)

    I don't know why I have so much trouble with this.  I think that I never properly put in place a network before.  Usually, I just turn on my router with a password, and then the phone and other devices connect directly to the router.  I just got a new computer with Windows 7 Professional and it is prompting me to create a home network - and have apparently created a new password for the 'network' that is different from the password for the router.  I have a feeling that this will be easy, but I do not get set up correctly.

    First question, in the instructions to configure the network at a time given, was asked if all "clients" had a "wifi protected setup" button

    What is a 'client' on the network?  My router Linksys has one of these buttons (I pushed him, but he could not get connect/setting up with Windows 7).  Is a router from a client?  If so, a client what?  (I do not understand the use of the term client.)

    Here's what I would do.  I have internet entering a cable modem.  Ethernet to the modem router Linksys WRT54G.  (I don't remember the exact model.  It has a button "wifi protection setup.  Ethernet to the router to the desktop.  The router's Ethernet compatible HP printer wifi (which is currently on its own network).  The Windows account has two users (mine, of my wife).  The goal is to have a single network, with the office and the connected printer, and who I can connect with my iPhone.  And I want to be able to print wireless from my iPhone to the printer.

    Here's what I did.  There is a lot of information, but if all goes well it will prevent additional questions.

    I have reset the router and went to the 192.168.1.1. page.  In the Administration tab, I created a new password - which I thought was the password for the network.  I was not the case.  In the wifi tab, I looked for a place to put a password, but could not find one.

    I went on the computer, the network options in Control Panel to add a new network.  I was able to get a new network with the computer (LAN) connected to the router, but I couldn't get wifi to set up.  He told me to press the setting button of protection wifi on the router, but after a long delay, he said that he could not establish a connection.  Finally, I got a message (I don't know how) if I wanted to connect older devices to the network, I need to put a code - 12 letters/numbers with dashes.  I don't know what types of devices called it.  So, I found in managing network a "network key" tab  It was the same code - and it also seemed to work as wifi password.  But I can't change it to something that is possible to remember.

    And I can't do the printer on the same network as the computer.

    I guess I'm going something wrong.  Can someone point me in the right direction?

    It seems that if the printer is in 'ad hoc wireless' mode - it is just sitting there with his wi - fi enabled: indeed, 'here I am; connect to me if you want to print. »

    You need to connect the printer to the network wireless router.  It's pretty easy, but if you want a specific rather than general instructions, please provide the exact model of your HP printer.

    Generically, see--> http://www8.hp.com/us/en/campaigns/wireless-printing-center/printer-setup-help.html , you will probably end by using the option of 3rd or 4th.  In step 4 of the "HP Wireless Assistant', 'the WEP key or a WPA password' is the 'wifi password on the router" - which really, you must configure except if the House really is miles from any other civilization.

    "Referring to the first paragraph above, what I called the mode"ad hoc"seems to be what HP calls impression of"peer-to-peer"."  More specifically, in the FAQ at this link, your printer seems to currently be configured as described in "how to print wireless without a wireless router?

    Although he adds a little more complexity, I highly recommend that - after that you get things market - you read the FAQ section of HP on "a static IP will keep my computer against the loss of communication with my printer wireless."  In an environment with multiple wi - fi devices (for example, several iPhones), if the printer is turned off for a while, when you turn it back on it you will find that your computer will display is no longer her.  Print jobs will appear to work, but nothing will print.  If this situation arises, the solution is this FAQ section.

  • XP Pro and Home network

    Sorry to bring up an old topic. I have two computers on a home network, a XP Pro and XP Home. They had been successfully networked with file sharing for some time, but a problem on the Pro machine brought me to reinstall Windows from scratch. Now I'm back to having access problems.

    When I finished the reinstallation, each computer seen each other through my working group. The Pro machine could access the Home machine, but not vice versa. Today, I tried to repair the installation of Pro using my installation CD. After the repair is completed (SP L2) I checked and discovered that the situation was reverse - I could access shared folders on the computer of the computer at home Pro, but not the other way around. I then installed SP 3 and the other XP updates, and now I can't access the files in both directions.

    I installed the NETBEUI protocol and enabled NETBIOS over TCP/IP on both machines. I disabled file sharing Simple box on the Pro machine and worked with the permissions in the Security tab, and I also checked the box Simple file sharing and use folders to be modified by users.  I used cmd to run net user guest/active: Yes. I used the Group Policy Editor to disable 'limit local account use of blank passwords to the local console'. I even tried to move computers to a new working group, without success. Bottom line is, according to me, that I did when I put at the beginning of the network upward some time ago, but this time the settings don't seem to be helping.

    I was surprised the extra 'broke' my network places-XP update, that I put in place on the Pro machine earlier today. If anyone has any ideas of what I might have missed, I'd sure appreciate hearing from you. Thanks in advance.

    Final complement, I found the problem - I have had to reinstall my anti-virus software when I rebuilt the Pro machine and apparently caused a hiccup with the program of antiv-virus on the home computer. When I disabled the antivirus software on the home computer, everything worked as it should.

  • Sharing files on home network - Vista Home Premium 32 and 64

    Hello people,

    I searched for hours, I made countless different steps to try to understand this point, and yet I'm still far away.
    I have two computers on my home network.
    -Machine 1 is Vista Home Premium 32-bit and is connected via a wired connection to my NetGear router.
    -Machine 2 is Vista Home Premium 64-bit and is connected via a Wireless connection to my NetGear router.
    I have a WD WorldBook connected to the Machine 1 via USB and I would like to be able to access it through my home network on Machine 2.
    Here are my settings that may be useful to know.
    Machine 1:
    -Cable
    -Network: NotURInterwebs (private network)
    -Working Group: DISCOVERY
    -The discovery of the network: WE
    -File sharing: WE

    However, when I go to start-> network on computer 1 and click on Machine 2, I have no problem connecting.
    Does anyone have an ideas that could help me understand what is happening?
    Thank you!

    Hello

    Thanks for the detailed information.

    We need additional information to help you with the problem, please answer the following.

    What antivirus application do you use?

    I suggest to change firewall security settings, or disable the security software on the system and try to access the location.

    Method 1:

    Disable the firewall on the Machine 1 and check the status of the issue.

    Enable or disable Windows Firewall

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off

    Note: You should not turn off Windows Firewall unless you have another firewall is enabled. Turning off Windows Firewall may make your computer (and your network, if you have one) more vulnerable to damage caused by worms or hackers.

    Note: In addition to a firewall, you must also be an antivirus and anti-malware program to help protect your computer. Install Microsoft Security Essentials or another antivirus and anti-malware program and update it. Many of these programs update automatically.

    Method 2:
    Error code 0 x 80070035 indicates that the network path was not found. This problem occurs if the NetBIOS over TCP IP is not enabled in Windows Vista. Please follow the steps below.

    (a) click on «Start», enter "NCPA. CPL"(without the quotes) and press ENTER.

    (b) right click on the connection you use for the local connection, and then click "Properties".

    (c) click on the button continue to check the permission of the administrator.

    (d) click to select 'Protocol Internet Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)' and then click 'properties '.

    (e) click on the button "Advanced" in the opened window. On the "WINS" tab, select 'Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP' and then click 'OK' to save the setting.

    The following article presents NetBIOS over TCP/IP.
