I can run router WRT160N wireless switch wireless E900

Recently the range of my Ipad has declined. So I bought an E900 to suplement my WRT160N (2 areas served by two different wireless).

My question is can I connect my modem cable in the E900 and have both the wireless on this work and feed the WRT160N via a wired connection so that the WRT160N can also act as a wireless router?

If so what needs to be done as I tried to connect them without the Linksys E-series installation CD and it did not work (surprise ;-()

Sure here ya go.

  • Linksys Router WRT160N - Wireless does not connect to the cable modem

    I installed the Linksys WRT160n router to replace an existing G router. When installed the new wireless router works, but the router does not receive a connection (IP address - look under status) of the cable modem (so no internet). When I reconnect the old router and then connect the new router, I get any internet connection through two routers (so the old dishes router the IP address that accepts the new router).

    I have configured the router N new for

    "Automatic configuration - DHCP", no need for connection, IP address dynamic, etc (as required by ISP - Timewarner)

    I tried to renewal and release IP address by the router N when it is connected directly to the main switch (the switch to connect to the cable modem). In so doing, shouldn't that assign a new IP address to the router?

    I am allowed 3 IPs from the cable company (because of the switch) and I use all three with three different internet IP cameras to each address for home security system.

    Any suggestions on why the router is not connecting to the internet? Do I need to reboot physically everything on the network, including the cable modem?

    If I understand your post, you said that your ISP gives you 3 Internet IP addresses and you have 3 cameras that use one of these Internet IP addresses.  If this is correct, then that leaves no IP Internet address for your WRT160N use - so that would explain why your WRT160N cannot get an Internet connection.

    If I misread your post, and you have an Internet IP address available for the WRT160N, you might have a problem with your modem and two WRT160N tries to use the same 192.168.1.x subnet.  To check this, follow these steps:

    (1) Please indicate addresses that use your cameras (IE before you take the test below).  If the addresses do not begin with 192.168, then erase the last half of each address.

    (2) Please indicate your ISP

    (3) Please indicate the make and exact model of your modem (not the WRT160N) number.

    (4) Please do the following test:

    Put your entire network.  Disconnect the switch (including cameras) to the modem.  Using an ethernet cable, connect your modem directly to your computer.  (Do not use the WRT160N for this test).  Turn on the modem and the computer.  Make sure you have an active Internet connection, then go ahead with what follows: (even if your Internet connection does not work, include this and move forward.)

    Go to 'Start' > all programs > Accessories > command prompt.
    A black DOS window will appear. Type "ipconfig/all" (with no quotes), and press the Enter key.   Copy all results in your next post.  To make the copy, highlight the results, and then use the keys copy (Ctrl-c) and paste (Ctrl-v) keys.  If your "IP address" does not begin with 192.168, then for security reasons, delete the latter half of your IP address.

  • Will be wireless G range expander router work with WRT160N wireless

    I have a WRT160N wirelesss router set up in my house.  I recently moved the router into the garage for a cable internet and VoIP phone installation.  Now my wireless printer in my basement that allows to print properly is to get an unacceptable signal. Probably due to a density of wall in concrete or something that does not ask before.  I want to install an Expander store but I have WPA2 security enabled on all my wireless devices.  The amplifier Wireless G does not mention if it can use the WPA2 security.  Only WEP.

    I have to downgrade my router security to WEP to use the Extender to put away or will it be compatible with my current security?  Information about the product and FAQ does not cover this subject.

    Thanks for any help.

    You can use WRE54G with router WRt160N... However, WRE54G Range Expander don't support WEP and WPA WPA2.

    Wireless router / Internet problems

    I am running Windows Vista Home Edition with Security Essentials.  I can connect to my wireless router, but cannot get internet connectivity via Wireless.  If I connect the cable to the port on the router, I get internet connectivity.  Is there a firewall setting that could cause this problem?

    Hello

    Your router could be suspicious here, you have successfully updated its firmware as a possible solution? And I would like to
    Update your WiFi drivers on computers. How you are positioned in the router? Are there
    obstacles in the path?

    Actually try updating your driver and disabling the network logon.

    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
    version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
    Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

    You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The
    manufacturer of system become your backup policies).

    Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Vista like
    updated drivers.

    I would also turn off auto update for the drivers. If the updates Windows suggests a just HIDE as they
    are almost always old, and you can search drivers manually as needed.

    ------------------------------------------------------

    Make sure you know the details of connection to your wireless router - SSID and password.

    You lose connection when you do and have to redo your logon.

    Control Panel - Network & Sharing Center - right, click Customize - page set of network locations.
    lower left click on merge or delete network locations - REMOVE all instances of your network (and the
    others you don't use anymore) - REBOOT. Start - Connect To log on to the network.

    Hello

    1. what happens when you use a wired connection?

    2. how many devices are connected to the router?

    This can happen if you connect that a specific number of device to the router, and when it exceeds the limit. You can consult the router's manual or contact the manufacturer of the router to check if all the parameters must be changed to connect several devices.

     

    Hope this information is useful.

    Hi Jer9009,

    Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.

    ·         Could you give the exact error code or error number you get?

    To connect multiple computers, install a network adapter in each and run a network CAT5 cabling to connect each one to a hub (and thus the other.) The computer that will serve as a transition will have a standard network card for wired and a wireless network adapter that will connect to the wireless (WAP) access point or gateway on the second network.

    A network bridge is software or hardware that connects two networks or more so that they can communicate. You can create only a single bridge network on a computer, but a bridge can handle any number of network connections.

    For more information, see the link: create a network bridge:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Create-a-network-bridge

  • CAN I turn stop wireless to router but always send signals to an external antenna via the port?

    Can I stop/start of my Wired main WRT54G wireless and always send the signal through a WAP browser & directional external antenna plugged into the hub?

    How to allow only my own devices to use my bandwidth?

    Using WPA password on WRT hub.

    Drive Blu - Ray and AT & T Microcell Tower allow other titles-WPA2...?

    Can I block the antenna attached to the main hub of sought but allow the port to send signals at access point?

    Shields of aluminum foil over the main router antenna would cease its output signal? (if I remove them to allow the occasional portable navigation)

    If you want, you can disable the feature on your primary router WRT54G wireless and use WAP to send the wireless signal.

    Open the router configuration page and go to the Wireless tab, change the mode of network to people with reduced mobility. Save the settings.

    If your wireless network is secure only your wireless computer can connect to the wireless network and use the bandwidth. So, make sure your wireless network secure.

    Consult the manual for your Bluray and AT & T Tower and see if they take in charge WPA2.

  • Xbox 360 slim connect to the interface on WRT160N wireless - g

    Hello:

    I bought a new Xbox 360 Slim a month ago. Before that, in anticipation of the console to my new wireless capabilities I advanced and changed my old WRT54G (1.1) for a wireless-N router WRT160N allowed.

    When I plugged the console for the first time it was a nightmare to configure wireless settings... It wouldn't connect, in every possible way... And when I finally made a connection that he deleted just after 1 hour (I think it had something to do with the renewal of WPA key, if you must ask) I've updated the firmware and all was good again. BUT! It only connects to wireless-G... I have the router located on 'Mix', so she accepts my notebooks 802.11 G and my 360 Wireless N, but just, it detects the router mode G and connects like that...

    I tried EVERYTHING, but nothing works.

    It connects fine, I even get open NAT on the console and play online with no apparent problems, but I need Wireless N, because the router and 360 are too separate, and the signal is becoming weak. Also I usually stream 1080 p content so I need more bandwidth.

    I tried setting that "only wireless n" router, but then the console just does not connect, says he "can't connect to the wireless hardware.

    I could not test any hardware wireless-N, so I don't really know if it's the fault of the router, the console or is that just, they are not compatible...

    Any tips?

    Can't... My only two options are 'automatic' or 'only 20 Mhz'... :/ I can only change the channel on 20 Mhz. But thanks for the tip.

    EDIT:

    OMG, I can't believe it... It is NOT a malfunction N wireless network... This has to do with security... I had my personal WPA authentication method... According to joint works like a charm and everything connects, but the Xbox connect just the wireless G. Under Wireless-N only, it just does not connect. But I tried to disable security, and he comes to connect n wireless!

    Now, I switched to WPA2 Personal... it connects perfectly on Wireless N even if I set the 'Mixed' router and broadband radio and the way to the car.

    My problem is solved, however, I got to know is always:

    Why he doesn't connect WPA enabled?

  • WRT160N: Wireless works great, Wired is slow

    I replaced my old router from Linksys 8 port with a WRT160N wireless so that my iPhone would have Wi - Fi in the House.  (AT & T network is not great where I live.)

    My iPhone yells now, great connectivity.  But my two desktop computers that are connected directly to the router are creepy.  Pages take forever to load, and often don't load graphics.

    A friend suggested I hang the wireless on the old router and run at the same time, but I want to get the wireless works fine on its own.

    Any suggestions on what I can change to get the router speeds up the performance of the computer cable?

    Here is the solution.  I did the downgrade of firmware and everything is working fine.

  • I installed Windows XP Home Edition. Can not find the wireless network drive

    I installed Windows XP Home Edition on my spare PC.  Now I have wireless network card in the computer and problems to find the drivers for it, and I don't know what brand it is, so I know it's kind of makes it harder too.  Then I also have to start the computer, but if I press F1, the computer starts well

    I was just wondering how can I get rid of this?

    Disable all devices that can connect to your router (wired or wireless)...

    • PCs
    • Laptops
    • Tablets
    • Smartphones
    • Smart TV
    • Printers
    • Networked storage
    • Another thing that I have not mentioned above!

    Put on your router and wait for the normal light distribution. Then turn on all devices.

    I hope that your ip address conflict went away. Generally ip conflicts can happen when the router is running again without doing the same with all devices later.

    If you have even an ip address conflict, it is possible that you forgot something above or can someone use your router without your knowledge.

    Your router's wireless network is secure? Ideally with WPA2 encryption?

    Thank you

    It seems that your settings are not correct for the access provider or router (or both).  I suggest that you contact your ISP and have them walk you step by step in the process of installation and configuration and do not let them off the coast of the Nigerian line you have a good connection, as you wish.  They know that the parameters so that we don't have, so they can help you better than we can, and I'm sure they will be happy to do.
