I can't configure WAG120N as access point

Dear all please help I bought a WAG120N but I'm not ready to use as modem router instead, I intend to use it as an access point. Please give me the steps to do so. Cordially Parag

Hi parag_ca. Apart from the suggestion of chadster766 to connect devices in a LAN to LAN configuration (where you need to connect the Ethernet cable from the main modem to one of the 4 regular ports on the router), you can also follow the LAN WAN procedure so that you always get to plug the ethernet cable from the main modem to the WAN or Internet the WAG120N port. Just change the local IP address of the router 192.168.2.1 to avoid IP conflicts.

  • LAPN300 - the best configuration for 3 access points, while using the same SSID

    Hi all

    What is the best configuration for 3 x LAPN300 located in various places around my house of 3 floors, access points if I want just one SSID?

    I did some initial research which suggests that I can use the same SSID on all three, as long as they are on different channels. 1, 6 and 11 for example. In theory, then, as I wander around the House the client machine must auto swap to the AP with the signal stronger.

    What do you think? What is the best way or do, or could suggest you something else?

    As an aside... If I decided to create a second SSID for the guests at home, I would also want to add wireless isolation to this SSID. How would that be managing the DHCP server on the local network? How would be asked to connect to the SSID has never get an IP if they have been isolated from other clients on the local network?  Besides, how they see the router? The ANNUAL lets you specify exceptions to this isolation for this feature?  Alternatively, as I suspect, is the right isolation feature isolate them from other WLAN, not the LAN clients customers?

    I did some testing and configuration of the AP with the same SSID and security will do what you want. Don't worry about setting the channel because the auto channel setting works with these devices and automatically adjusts the spacing between the appropriate channels.

    Recommendation of the VPN_user is what you need if you want to isolate the SSID comments from the rest of your network clients.

    Isolation of SSID of the AP will guard only wireless devices to communicate with each other on the same SSID on which it is enabled.

  • A WRT160N V3 can be used as wireless access point.

    I have an AT & T's broadband router.  A WRT160N is connected, so I now have Wireless N capabilities.  I have a second WRT160N I want to put in my living room as a point of access, so I can connect my BluRay player and video stream.  How can I configure the second WRT160N as access point?

    Thank you in advance,

    Andrew

    Topic 1. Yes, you can use your second WRT and put in place as a second access point to your network. First of all, unplug the second WRT to your network and wire a computer in one of its LAN ports. Open the web interface at http://192.168.1.1/ on the main configuration page, change the address LAN IP of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.2 and disable the DHCP server. Save the settings. Unplug the computer and connect the cable to the first router on one of the second router's LAN ports. Do not use the internet port of the second router! Now you can use the wireless access point in the second router as access point additional for your network.

    For a wireless roaming the two Wrds with identical wireless settings (SSID, wireless security, etc.) and don't forget to enable the SSID broadcast. Only the channel assignments should be different. Different channels spaced at least 5 avoids duplication of canals. Now your laptop can connect to your network via either WRT and internet through the first WRT. It must also be able to move between the two Wrds without losing the connection.

    Re 2. Because the WRT160N has only the ethernet 10/100 ports a CAT5e cable should do. Of course, you can consider getting a better cable, for example a cat6 for future enhancements to your network. It depends on how much effort it is necessary to replace the cable later if you decide to go for gigabit ethernet on your local network.

  • 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.

  • Satellite L20-101: can't see my WLan access point

    Hello world

    I have a L20-101. It worked well until we change our AP with 802n Apple AP again. I can see any other network, but I can't see mine.
    Any idea?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Yes, I have an idea ;) How about you change the WLan card?
    Seems that the new access point is not compatible with the wireless network for laptop card.
    Maybe the minPCI wireless network card does not support the standard wireless access point.

    What do you think?

  • 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...

    Enjoy!

  • The WRT600N can connect to a wireless access point?

    I installed Windows 7 on my desktop and I was not able to install all types of Linksys wireless adapters.  I decided that linking an my WRT600N wireless access point in the other room and hardwireing the office to the access point, would be a good idea.  I'm probably going to connect it to a Net WTG624 Gear, which is capable of acting as an access point and you connect to another router.  The question is, can the WRT600N you connect to and use the internet and the local access and, ultimately, on the Office of cable?  I feel that it is one of the most stupid questions, I ask myself here again, but I'm not sure.

    EDIT: I'm sure it's called Wireless Bridge.

    Thank you

    Zach

    Hello Zach,

    The WRT600N can connect at the point of access, and vice-versa. I have a WRT600N home and have the same model of NetGear as access point (what are the chances?) and it works fine, although I do miss the 5 GHz as the Access Point is only 2.4 Ghz 802.11 g Standard.

    I hope this helps!

  • Specific configurations to the access point

    Hi all

    just a matter of an inch...

    If I had a scenario 2 controller with some specific Configurations of the AP, for example AP groups VLAN and a faulty controller, the APs move to the other controller. What the specific config? Assume that the controller configuration (dyn Interfaces lets say) is correct.

    Any hint of welcome

    BR, Michael

    But, do i have to connect and configure every AP to all Controllers in my Netwok and configure the same steps?

    If you have more than one controller, you can copy the config of a fully functional config to the new (just change the IP address).  You can also set global one are the primary and the secondary controller.

  • setting up wrt150N as access point

    Hello.. Please bare with me.
    In my previous House, I had my cable modem connected to a dlink wireless router. I used a port on the dlink lan and connected to my wrt150n that is configured as an access point. It has worked flawlessly. I was able to create a network and share files between computers regardless of what router they were physically connected to.

    Fast forward a year and in my new House, I have a dlink WIRED router connected to my modem (different ISP) and to a lan port on the router im connected to the port of the wrt150n 'internet '. The computer is connected to the 150n can access the internet and the portion wireless works fine, but it does not connect to another computer that is connected directly to the router wired dlink.

    From the computer connected to the linksys, I can;

    router dlink ping

    router linksys ping

    ping ip address ONLY, the second computer that is connected to the dlink router

    The computer connected to the dlink, I can;

    router dlink ping

    I can not ping ip address AND name of the other computer

    I cannot ping the router linksys

    Is happening here?

    What setting should I watch these two computers to be on the same home network?

    Dlink ip address is 192.168.0.1

    Address IP Linksys is 192.168.1.1

    He was installing it in my old House and worked well.

    Unfortunately, my warranty is up and linksys don't offer me a tech support.

    any help would be GREATLY appreciated, I really need my home network courses.

    It's just the way you have implemented: you configured the WRT as router and so you have created two separate LAN segments and areas of broadcasting. Emissions of LAN will not cross a router. Name resolution for the WIndows work group works on the basis of emissions, either it works on the same segment of LAN never beyond a router. For example, if you want to keep this type of installation, you will need to use the IP address to connect to computers on the Dlink from computers on the WRT. Reverse is not possible at all because the WRT does NAT which makes LAN inaccessible on the internet port.

    You want only the WRT as access point and you seem to want connectivity complete between all your computers I would say that you reconfigure the WRT.

    1. disconnect the WRT from D-Link.

    2. connect a computer to the WRT. Open the web interface at http://192.168.1.1/

    3. on the main configuration page, change the address LAN IP of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.0.2 and disable the DHCP server.

    4. save the settings. You will lose the connection.

    5. unplug the computer and wire to one of the LAN ports of the WRT to your D-Link router.

    That's all. Now all your computers to connect to the same local network and are in the same broadcast domain. All computers use IP addresses * 192.168.0 and have internet through D-Link.

    Make sure that the DHCP server on the D-Link will not affect 192.168.0.2 to another computer or device on your network. This would cause a conflict of IP address.

  • Cannot associate the Access Point

    I just bought a WUSB54GSC wireless adapter and try to connect to my wireless router, a WRT54GS2, but it gives me a message saying "can't associate with the Access Point.  I tried several times and tried to reconfigure the WEP key, just in case I screwed up somehow and get this message.  I tried the network unsecured neighbor (signal low, of course) and he gave me the same, too.

    What I know:

    (1) the problem is not with any part of my network, either from my lines (DSL), (ADSL) modem or a router, because I use a wired network right now with no problems and several other devices in my house with built-in WiFi to connect wireless to the same router with the Setup even very well.

    (2) the problem is not that I messed up the WEP key.  I rechecked it multiplies and even went to the router via an Ethernet cable to check what I entered compared to what he shows me, and they have a perfect match.  In addition, as previously stated, various WiFi compatible devices in my house using the same WEP key to connect properly.

    So, I don't understand why I can't connect what either.

    First go to device manage and check if the adapter is installed correctly or not... ? If it is installed correctly then, right-click on the utility of linksys (green square) on the toolbar and click on 'Use Windows to configure' and click on 'yes '...

    Now, if you have Windows XP... Click Start and goto the control panel and double-click on network connections, right click wireless network connection and click View available wireless networks and select your wireless network and click on connect... Now, it will give you the opportunity to put the network/wep key, make sure that you enter the correct network key and confirm... It will connect...

    If you have Windows Vista... Click Start > Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center > click on connect to a network, select your wireless network and click on connect, it should ask for your key/password network, enter the network and password correct key and click on connect... It needs to connect... Once you're connected, you must restart the computer, it needs to connect to the Internet...

    Also try to change the wireless channel of the router to 11-2, 462 GHz and then try again...

  • Card wireless INTEL PRO 2200 BG - don't find any wireless access point

    I just try to run internet with the internal PRO INTEL BG 2200 wireless card.
    The driver version is just updated to 9.0.4.39. The problem is, I can't find any wireless access point.

    I also use a D-Link card, with this card, I found the available access points. What could be the problem with the INTEL PRO card. I'm sitting right next to the router/hub.

    Also, I thought that I might need to activate the wireless with additional keys Fn function, but they do not work, I guess. Maybe I need a driver for this tool also. Do anyone know where I can find drivers to use the Fn keys?

    My system:
    TOSHIBA Tecra

    See also: The INTEL internet LAN works.

    > What could be the problem with the INTEL PRO card. I'm sitting right next to the router/hub.

    For me, it seems that the WiFi network is not enabled.
    Usually, you need to activate the WLan switch which is placed on the side of the laptop. Then, you'd see an active WLan led.
    If you n t see the light, then the WiFi network has not been activated.

    In addition, choose the WLAN using FN + F8!
    You can also activate the Wlan in Device Manager-> card Wlan-> properties-> Advanced tab.

    Good bye
