Linksys BEFSX41 wired router - fixation using OpenDNS only

• Wireless and wired router, DHCP and "visibility".

  Okay, it's a bit complicated, but I'll explain better than I can.

  I have a wired Linksys RV082 router. It works very well but is not wireless.  I have a Cisco/Linksys E2500 wireless router for my wireless devices to use.  the RV082 is the network of 192.168.1.x. The E2500 is the network of 192.168.0.x.  Cable Internet goes to the RV082 Wired, and a line out from there to the wireless router.  This all works fine except for a few disadvantages.

  I have an iPad that connects wireless and some of the apps offer a http:// option, so I can transfer files to this application.  I also have a network printer connected to wired and wireless devices do not.

  I have 2 problems:

  (1) in order to transfer files from my laptop (that I hung on the cable network most of the time), I disconnect the wire, wireless, then I can transfer files.  Œuvres, but it's embarrassing.

  (2) I want a netbook that I have on the wireless connection to print on my printer wired network.

  It seems that the 2 networks do not see each other.  Here are the things I've tried:

  (1) I disabled DHCP on the wireless router.  My thought is that requests for an IP address to the wireless router has sent will be transmitted along my wired router... NOT.  On my iPad and Wii, they could no longer connect wirelessly. Strangely enough, with the disconnected wire and wireless connection with my laptop, I've still was getting a 192.168.0.x IP address, even if the DHCP service is disabled on the wireless router.

  (2) thinking I would put manually the wireless router on the 192.168.1.x network, instead of saying things to get an Internet connection IP dynamicaly, I manually the IP value is 192.168.1.245.  Serious mistake.  I couldn't connect at all anywhere then.  The only way I could fix it was to hang on to my laptop computer, assign a static IP address to my laptop on the same network as the router, then I was able to get to the configuration page and to put things like he was.

  Another thing... Even when I'm connected only plugged on my laptop and wireless is disabled, I ping 192.168.0.1 (the wireless gateway) and it returns a value. But, when I try to go in a browser, I get a "page not found" error

  So, how can I get these two networks to play well and see each other?

  Thank you

  Put the router E2500 'bridge' mode and it will transmit the RV082.

  Assign E2500 DHCP, an IP address for itself of thje RV082, it will just be for access to the web administration E2500. System powered via the E2500 wired or wireless IP addresses will be obtained from the DHCP server on the RV082, and these will all be on the same subnet as designed to be plugged into the side of the RV082 LAN.

  Should allow you to do exactly what you want to do.

  I have a similar setup here works well with an E4200V2 right now.

• Router WRT54GS WET54G bridge question, the bridge to connect to a wired router?

  Hi all

  I have a wireless - g LAN using a WRT54GS router.  The existing wireless devices on the local network are 2 PCs, a TiVo unit (using the TiVo wireless adapter) and 2 WET54G Wireless bridges.  A bridge connects ethernet wired to a network printer.  The other bridge connects by ethernet cable to a reader Blu - Ray Sony BDP-S550.

  Security is WPA2-AES.  so far this works well, believe it or not, but I grew a lot older, making it happen.

  Now, here's what I would do: I would like to add another device LAN cable where the second bridge WET54G connects to the Blu - Ray player.  The bridge has only an ethernet cable connection, so I have to find another way to get the two devices connected to the wireless LAN.

  I have two other devices LinkSys, kicking around here that I can use.  One is a BEFSR41 wired router.  The other is a WAP54G Wireless Access Point.   If I can use one or two of those who in some way, I won't have to buy another camera.  It is the order of the day so far.

  Right now it looks like this:

  Router WRT54GS wireless wire WET54G bridge entry WAN router BEFSR41 son to two LAN devices.

  I have problems performing this work, assuming that it can still be done.  Can I get this config to work, or what I need to add the Access Point where the bridge is now, or...?

  Thanks for your time,

  Big Al Mintaka

  You already have a network working with your existing devices. What you're trying to include in your network is possible and can be done. Rather than plug the cable of the WET54G to the WAN port on the router, connect the cable to the router's LAN port. Disable DHCP and change the LAN ip address in the range of your existing network. It should work.

• BEFSR41 wired router affected by change of modem cable

  Hi all

  You don't know if someone here can help me with a problem with the router above following a change of modem, I can get things to work, but once everything is turned off, the next time it starts things are back to how they were.

  To give a bit of history...

  My setup is a G4 Mac and a Xbox 360 Elite connected to a wired router BEFSR41, which in turn is connected to my cable modem, I am based in the United Kingdom so my ISP is Virgin Media.

  This configuration has been absolutely rock solid for more than 3 years, but last Sunday, I was unable to connect to internet and I noticed that the light on the modem was flashing instead of be constant, as it is supposed to be.

  I called Virgin and they did a test signal and confirm there is a problem and sent an engineer. He arrived Tuesday and confirmed the modem was very old and had packed and replaced by a new. We rebooted everything and everything was fine, I could email and get out on the internet as before.

  It worked fine the next day too but on Thursday morning, despite the fire loan being constant on the modem, I couldn't online again. I called Virgin and they did another test signal and said that something did not look right and they would send another engineer.

  He came Friday (different GUY), but confirmed that there is nothing wrong with the modem, the signal is OK just to verify, plugged the Mac directly into the modem, bypassing the router and I could get on the internet without problem.

  It seems that the router is at fault, but I have to say that it is a massive coincidence that it has stopped working correctly two days after the modem has been change, so I was looking at the configuration of the router via my browser page, and the only thing I did was to confirm under Type of Internet connection that "automatically an IP address to get" has been selected and I saved the settings and bingo everything works well again.

  So I put off, Mac, router and modem and switched back them and I'm at square one, no internet access. If I go to the router setup page again, "get automatically an IP address' is still selected and if I hit again 'save settings' everything works fine.

  I then started to bounce back each element separately and by turning the router or the mac on / off does not affect access, I am still able to get on the net, but as soon as I bounce the modem, I'm in the place again until I have click on 'save' on the router set up page.

  It's just my head in - what is the modem to the router to make it 'lose' its parameters and specifically, how to fix?

  I must say I don't remember when I bought the router through any complex installation, it is basically out of the box, go hooked upward and worked for 3 years and more.

  Any suggestions would be very welcome.

  As far as I know, it seems that you have a cable modem.

  Your BEFSR41 should work with your modem when the BEFSR41 has been reset by default.  In addition, in some cases, you may need to 'clone' of the MAC address of the computer (the one that works when you connect it to the modem) in your BEFSR41.

  To reset your router by default, follow these steps:

  (1) turn off all computers, the router and the modem and disconnect from the wall.
  (2) disconnect all the wires of the router.
  (3) turn on the router and let it start up completely (1-2 minutes).
  (4) press in and hold the reset for 30 seconds button, then release it, then let the router reset and restart (2-3 minutes).
  (5) turn the router.
  (6) connect a computer cable to port 1 of the router (NOT to the internet port).
  (7) turn on the router and let it start up completely (1-2 minutes).
  (8) the power of the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it's off).
  (9) try ping on the router. To do this, click the 'Start' button > all programs > Accessories > command prompt. A black DOS window will appear. Enter the following text: "ping 192.168.1.1" (without the quotes) and press the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that begin with ' response to... ". "or"Request timed out". If you see "reply from...". ", your computer has found your router.
  (10) open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to the login page of your router. Let the empty user name (Note: some routers have a username "admin") and in the password field, enter "admin" (without the quotes). This will take you to your router configuration page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually found near upper right corner of the screen).

  (11) If you need to clone the MAC address of your computer, do this step now.

  (12) If you get this far without problems, quit your browser and put your entire network.  Then, using an ethernet cable, connect the ethernet port of your modem to the Internet port on the BEFSR41.  Leave your computer connected to a LAN of the BEFSR41 ports.  If your modem has a USB port, do not connect anything to it.  If your modem works with a battery, remove it now, and then wait one minute, then replace the battery.  Turn on your modem and let it start up completely (1-5 minutes).  Turn on your BEFSR41 and let it start up completely (1-2 minutes).  Turn on your computer.  Try to connect to the Internet.  If you have a problem, temporarily disable your firewall software computer and try again to connect.  If you still have problems, see 'The replacement boot order' below.

  If you can not ' response to... ". "in step 9 above, your router is probably dead. A report with this problem

  If you get a response in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, is that your router is dead or the firmware is damaged. Related to this issue.

  If you need additional help, please give the results of steps 9 and 10. In addition, if you receive error messages, copy them exactly, and report.

  Please let me know how things turn out for you.

  Changing the boot order *.

  The boot order (modem, router, then computer) that I mentioned above is the classic boot order, and it works with most of the networks.  Some networks will work well if you turn on all devices at the same time.  However, the other networks is very picky about the way in which they are started, and they may also require a different boot order.  Sometimes, it can require a lot of experimenting until you find the boot order that works.  For example, I had once a system requiring that I start the router first, wait 5 minutes, and then start the modem and the computer.  Try different orders on your system until you find what works.

• WRT54G behind another wired router?

  Hello

  I have a wired network in a small office space.  I would like to buy a wireless router and put on the existing network to add a wireless network.

  WRT54G can be used for this. I would have preferred if the new network was separated, but I would also if it's posible to change the settings of the router so that it begins to work as a simple access point instead.

  I can't change the router of the internet service provider, and I don't want to change the settings in the router either.

  Best regards.

  # This is not possible with your WRT. You cannot prevent attempts to connect from the second router LAN in the first router's LAN. All the second router traffic must pass through the first router that makes everything accessible. You would need equipment to enterprise-level which allows you to filter the arbitrary traffic. But the WRT can do. I can't speak to your wired router.

  If it's only on disabling wireless, you can do that in the web interface of the WRT. You can turn off the wireless radio. Then you can keep the connected WRT.

  The alternative would be to get another (third) router that hosts your internet connection. Then you can connect your router wireless and wired to this third-party router effectively separating the wireless LAN and wired the other sharing the same internet connection.

• 4600 pro connects to the Linksys WAG354 Wireless router!

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 with internal wireless card. I'm trying to connect to my Linksys WAG354 wireless router. The laptop seems to connect but only get a connection status ' Limited or no connectivity "note computer says it has problem because the network has not assigned a network address of the computer.

  I called Linksys, but the call center do not have a lot of help! They said that I should update the driver for the Toshiba wireless... I did that, but still the same problem.

  I am running windows XP. I have two other laptops connected to the router WAG354 and they work fine.

  Any advice would be much appreciated.

  Hello

  I agree with Michael. I think that some false setting is responsible for this. If your network is visible for the laptop, the features of the card are OK and the problem parameters.

• Wired router with POE and Gigabit ethernet to run two AC1750 access points?

  Hello, I'm looking for a recommendation for a wired router with POE and Gigabit ethernet to connect to both access to ceiling LinkSys AC1750 points internet routing on the WAN to a Virgin Media UK cable connection plug - can someone advise a good solution?

  I'm a Home Office / Small Office so user there are several Wired's devices and a mixture of wireless clients. I need at least 8 ethernet outlets. Reliablity and speed performance are important, but not important enough to go overboard on the cost!

  Many thanks to you all.

  I recommend a router Linksys (SMB) LRT214\224 and a switch POE LGS Linksys (SMB). This combination will be very fast and stable.

• Can't make an Apple iPod Touch to connect to my new Linksys WRT54GL Wireless router.

  Hello.

  I'm trying to set up the iPod Touch (bought for more than a year; using v2.2 (5 G 77) firmware) of the of my client to connect to my new encrypted Linksys WRT54GL Wireless router. After we entered the password (too many sensitive cases and WPA shared key) as five times, he said "Failed to join"FooBarWRT54GL"" immediately.

  The router uses the latest firmware v4.30.13 with these wireless settings:
  Wireless network mode: Mixed (you want to support the devices/clients and B).
  Wireless Network Name (SSID) example: FooBarWRT54GL
  Wireless channel: 1-2, 412 GHZ
  Security mode: WPA2 Personal
  WPA algorithms: TKIP + AES
  Example of WPA Shared key: Abunchofletters aspacetoo

  I guess that this device can do WPA Personal as she saw the WAP and requested a password. We have not had any problems with a year old 15 "MacBook Pro (2.4 Ghz and Mac OS X 10.5.8) and it's easy as cake.

  Any ideas? Thank you in advance.

  I finally got to work, with the help of Apple at the forum: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10650288... I had to do a manual configuration. Don't know why selecting the WAP and entering his password/password didn't work.

• Table of the newspaper into my Linksys BEFSX41

  I noticed that my Table of newspaper into my Linksys BEFSX41 shows I'm get hammered by incoming traffic on port 53 (DNS), 40 per second. If I don't have a rule to leave in my LAN are these abandoned? My outgoing access is slow and I'm getting a lot of errors, couold these applications be more overwhelming the router?

  YAY!

  Update firmware for 1.52.16.4-(#3). The port of DNS relay vulnerability fixed.

  It's MAGIC. A router headed for the trash can work perfectly.

  Let that give lessons to all that you kiddies out there... update your firmware before you empty the trash!

  Never use WPS to connect.  If done it should be disabled in the router for security reasons.  Connect manually via the SSID and password following the instructions in the manual.

• How to use copy ONLY on black cartridge

  Hello!
  I have a HP Officejet 7410 all-in-one printer.

  I use a 344 color cartridge and a Black cartridge 339.

  While the color cartridge is empty, I am interested using the COPY function using ink ONLY the black cartridge.

  Even with the color cartridge, I'd still be interested in the same question:
  IS IT POSSIBLE to SELECT THE COPY FUNCTION to WORK ON BLACK INK (cartridge 399), AND IF SO - HOW?

  There is the 'Black' copy button on the front and the same option in the "HP Solution Center" software, but I think it prints black as a combination of the Tricolor cartridge inks, since when the empty color cartridge it does not print anything.

  Thank you.

  Hi Jet7410ALLinONE,

  The copy function uses a mixture of black cartridges and color when printing in black.   Please let me know the result of the new cartridges.

  Thank you.

  Finally a resolution...

  I tried running an ePrint of New York telephone, and it worked, but still no luck wirelessly from the PC printing.

  He said that the WiFi was indeed working.  So, I did a search for new firmware and found that there was one in April of this year (2016).  Downloaded and took a chance on install.  To my amazement, it is actually installed on the printer without any connection "connected".  Who told me that there is an existing wireless link.

  Once the install is complete firmware, I tried to print a worksheet Excel from the PC, and it actually printed!  I have to assume there was something in the formware upgrade which allowed the router from LinkSys (WRT1900AC) to communicate fully and to work with the PC.  The router was published in 2014, so maybe it was.

  In any event, everything is in fully working again.

  Man y thanks to all who have shared their data entry.  I hope this could help someone with a similar problem in the future.

  Thanks again!
