modem router WAG120N wireless security configuration

I use modem router wag120n but is confused abt how to set up wireless security of it is. Security Wireless Configuration recommended in tutorial given here is very different from what is given in my page of configuration routrs.

I don't know how to manage the key renewal option. If I leave as 3600 seconds does that mean that I have to enter my device a new key wireless connected to the router after every 1 hour?

Well well with firmware linksys/cisco security gateway wireless configuration seems even that is mentioned in the link provided: http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=80&app=vw&vw=1&login=1&json=1&docid=7b0d8344c5524f75a8d5b... . But if in case it looks different let it me know what exactly what you see in the configuration page.

Group key renewal determines how many times your group exchange key. The renewal time should not be too short or too long. The default is 3600 seconds.

You don't have to deal with the renewal of key. It happens automatically. Customers do not lose connectivity, just the key for the changes of the connection. You won't notice. The longer the interval longer guarantee the link (in theory) as a striker who wants to break the encryption key has less time and less data to work on...

But once again: it does not affect customers wireless connected. It's all past automatically just as it happens when the connection is established in the first place.

  • Pavillion dv6 Wireless Security Configuration Question: router beats Notebook?

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook running Windows 7 that I connect to a new router.

    The router offers a high security setting: WPA - PSK (TKIP) and WPA - PSK (AES).  My laptop does not show this as being available.

    It shows that of the two, but not both combined.

    Does anyone know if my laptop can provide this level of security setting so I can match my router?

    My cell phone as a card Intel Centrino Wireless N-1000.

    Thank you!

    Dear Dragon-fur,

    Thank you very much for your kind response and assistance.

    I used the AES as WPA - PSK (AES) parameter.

    However, it seems that a better level of security is available, at least on my router, which combines the AES parameter with the TKIP {WPA - PSK (TKIP)} parameter.  It shows like the WPA - PSK (AES) + WPA - PSK (TKIP).  My notebook, however, does not give this combo setting option.

    I'm misunderstanding you?

    Thank you very much!

  • Router E4200, cannot secure the wireless network

    When my E4200 wireless network appears on a discovery list of wireless networks, there a padlock beside him in devices (like my Xbox and iPhone) that who would use to show that it is a wireless network, requiring a password. When I use my Xbox to connect wireless now, he said: "you connect to an unsecured network. Are you sure you want to continue? »

    I used the web portal to select 'Factory Reset' of my router. I also told my iPhone to forget and not automatically connect wireless network. After factory reset, I went to the configuration section of the web page wireless network access router, put a new name for the wireless network, personal WPA2 enabled for 2.4 and 5 GHz networks, developed a completely new password for two I had never used before and then looked for the network on my iPhone. I chose it and it connected right away without asking for a password. Still once, the network does not appear with a padlock next to him in the list of devices to the network from my iPhone WiFi and my XBox says always that this is an unsecured network.

    When using my internet browser to access router, WiFi networks are both classified as WPA2 Personal and each has a password in the password box (and Yes, I recorded the changes - that's what it shows even if I disconnect and then reconnect to the router access.) I tried to remove the power cord for 30 seconds and plug in again and there is no change.

    It's quite a recent change, like maybe the last week or more. I don't know if there was a firmware update or what - my router is configured for auto updates and when I click to check the latest updates, it says that there are no more updates available.

    TL; Dr: said access my router my wireless security is turned on. None of my wireless devices see as secure WiFi networks and each of them can connect without having to type a password.

    Do a reset factory and set up from scratch.

    If this fails, try this:

    Manually download the FW file to the local office of PCs.
    Reset the router, use IE or FF with all security disabled add-ons, load the FW file and let you treat.
    Factory reset the router once more and set up from scratch.

  • Xfinity X 1 modem/router is compatible with the Airport Extreme? How it should be configured to maintain my wireless network?

    I got a modem Comcast/Xfinity upgrade. Xfinity X 1 modem/router is compatible with the Airport Extreme? How it should be configured to maintain my wireless network?

    Whenever you change the modem or modem/router on a network, AirPort Extreme will be reset to the default settings and then set it up again to work properly with the new modem. For this he would be...

    Turn on AirPort Extreme for a few minutes... If it is not already turned on

    Hold in the reset button on the back of the AirPort Extreme for 7-8 seconds, then release it.

    Allow a minute for the AirPort Extreme restart to a slow, flashing amber light status

    Make sure that an Ethernet cable connects to one of the four LAN <-->Ethernet ports on the modem/router on port WAN "O" on AirPort Extreme

    To start the Setup program, click the WiFi icon at the top of the screen on your Mac and are looking for a list of the new AirPort base station

    Just below that, click directly on the AirPort Extreme and then follow the prompts for configuration "Wizard".

    When you configure AirPort Extreme once again, you can use the same wireless network name and the same password that you used with AirPort Extreme with the 'old' modem, if you wish, or use a new wireless network name and password

  • Find the best modem / router configuration.

    Be 'stuck' with wimpy CenturyLink DSL service (read 4 Mbps), I try to get every ounce of speed that I can with my configuration of a Wi - Fi. The material in question is a Technicolor C1100T modem/router/WiFi and a current model Apple AirPort Extreme.

    The question is, whose Setup is faster:

    [A] C1100T in Bridge Mode (i.e. modem only) > AirPort Extreme all the PPPoE router / WiFi work, or

    [B] C1100T modem handling / PPPoE - router work > AirPort Extreme in Bridge Mode, just do a Wi - Fi connection?

    The C1100T goes only up to speed "n" where the Airport manages 'ac '. So my thought is the configuration 'B' may have an advantage. I thought I would ask the collective wisdom of the community of Apple before playing with all the related parameters. Speaking of which, overall the Apple hardware, the PPPoE "Account name" is always shown as formatting as an email (e.g. [email protected]) address. In the C1100T admin settings, the PPP username (PPPoE) is in the format ABC123456789. Formats in the case of AirPort Utility parameters (i.e. it will accept Qwest format)?

    As long as we talk about press speed, are there any other tricks, for example by selecting the best channels 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz (assuming that one is faster than the other)? Literally, living in the Woods, there is no one else around with any related Wi - Fi signal to interfere.

    As always, thanks for the help!

    The question is, whose Setup is faster:

    [A] C1100T in Bridge Mode (i.e. modem only) > AirPort Extreme all the PPPoE router / WiFi work, or

    [B] C1100T modem handling / PPPoE - router work > AirPort Extreme in Bridge Mode, just do a Wi - Fi connection?

    Not trying to be cute here, but if the products work correctly, the results will be the same.

    However... speed could be one thing and another reliability.  Setting PPPoE Apple are old and is not known for their reliability.  As you know, in theory, you want the device that provides identification of connection information to connect directly to the Internet service.  This would mean that have C1100T PPPoE c would probably be a better way to do things, reliability wise.

    The C1100T goes only up to speed "n" where the Airport manages 'ac '. So my thought is the installation of 'B' may have an advantage

    Not in terms of connection to the Internet.  If you are thinking about speed on your local network, the airport would be the way to go. Just ignore the C1100T, or turn off the wireless feature if you feel that it can interfere with wireless the wireless AirPort.

    Speaking of which, overall the Apple hardware, the PPPoE "Account name" is always shown as formatting as an email (e.g. [email protected]) address. In the C1100T admin settings, the PPP username (PPPoE) is in the format ABC123456789. Formats in the case of AirPort Utility parameters

    No, but I would not use PPPoE over airport.  If you have tons of time and be ready to experiment and put up with connections, more broken then you could try PPPoE on the airport.

    As long as we talk about press speed, are there any other tricks, for example by selecting the best channels 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz (assuming that one is faster than the other)?

    N ° the most convenient airport at startup, it automatically scans to select a channel that meets the criteria set by Apple engineers. As soon as it finds one, he chooses.

    If someone really knew what could be the real criteria you had tons of time on your hands, in theory, it may be possible to guess and select a channel as good as who will pick up the airport.

  • Connect AirPort Express to lemon (Rogers Rocket) Wireless Modem/Router

    I just got Rogers Wireless internet new modem/router Hitron.  I use modem/router mode.  It's great. Very fast and a lot of range. Covers all 3 floors of my house.

    I want to connect an Apple Terminal to my Hitron router with an ethernet cable and put the Hitron in Bridge mode. I want to continue to use the Hitron router as my main and only router.

    However on another floor, I would use an Apple Airport Express connected to my stereo with a jack 1/8 '' to play my music wirelessly from my iTunes from Apple.

    To do this, I need this Apple Airport Express Terminal to 'find' the Hitron router.  How can I get to find the router Hitron?

    I guess that you have a current version or recent of the AirPort Express with the default settings.

    As long as the AirPort Express is located where it can receive a strong signal of the modem/router...and wireless Hitron the Hitron aircraft provides a wireless signal that uses industry standard wireless settings, the AirPort Express can 'join' the wireless network. Wired Ethernet is not necessary.

    Note that the AirPort Express will not "spread" or "repeat" the signal from the router/modem lemon to provide additional coverage of wireless signal wireless, but it can be used to join the wireless network and provide a signal of airtime for your stereo.

    Simply use a Mac running a current or recent operating system, or an iPhone/iPad and configuration "Wizard" Apple to set up things upward. The wizard will automatically offer the correct configuration to 'join' the wireless network. All you really need to do is to enter a device name that you want to use for the AirPort Express and the password of the wireless network and confirm.

    Start the wizard by clicking on AirPort Express under the title of the new AirPort base station.

    On an iPhone or iPad, the screen looks like this:

    In the example below, the wizard has detected a network named "2WIRE902" for the AirPort Express join. You will see the name of the wireless network that provides the Hitron modem/router on your screen. Just enter a name of device for the Express, then type the wireless network password, then type it again to verify.

    Click next at the bottom right of the window and the AirPort Express displays a green light for a minute or two and you're done.

  • Can what comparison be made between time capsule and Smart RG s505 wireless modem router for wifi

    Can what comparison be made between time capsule and Smart RG s505 wireless modem router for wifi

    Superior...

    After all, the chip is mainly a modem.

    Wireless is there but not designed as the primary connection.

    Wireless 802.11n 300Mbps AP with 2 x 2 MIMO Wireless bridge, WDS multiple SSID, including isolated invited SSID WiFi QoS (WMM) and PowerSave wireless security: • Wi - Fi Protected Access (WPA, WPA2) • AES, TKIP, WEP encryptio

    It is the Wireless N standard.

    The TC is dual-band simultaneous AC1750... even if in fact apple never leaves anything use 300mbit on the 2.4 GHz is more like AC1450... It is also 3 streams on both bands not 2 x 2.

    The fact that aid.

    The only thing to note is that a router from Apple can join never a router wireless not apple... so, there must always be plugged in by ethernet.

  • Why can't connect using Apple Airport WIFI of my remote security cameras but can connect using the Xfinity WIFI Modem/Router open?

    Why can't connect using Apple Airport WIFI of my remote security cameras but can connect using the Xfinity WIFI Modem/Router open?

    Two possibilities:

    (1) your airport WiFi might have a network name that is not in line with best practices, wireless

    A good wireless network name is...

    ... In short no more than 20 characters

    Simple... no special characters like an apostrophe, dollar sign, asterisk, etc.

    Compact, without spaces in the name

    For example, a wireless network network name as... red .dfedoryk Apple wireless network... .is not what you want. Something like... .dfedorykwireless. .. masse are much more likely to connect to non-Apple devices.

    Same guidelines your password

    (2) Apple gives the same name to network 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz network that produces double router band.  Some non-Apple devices are confused by the present, you may need to use the option to assign a different name for the network of 5 GHz on the router from Apple. Then, 'point' your device to the network name specific to which you want to connect.

  • Linksys makes a Combo of Modem/Router Wireless N cable

    Does Linksys router wireless n gateway, a combination router and cable modem?

    Currently I have the unit combined for wireless g, but upgrade to wireless-n.

    Thank you!

    I think at the moment that doesn't sell Linksys 802.11n gateways.

    I generally recommend not getting the combined devices, but better to get two separate devices, a simple modem and a wireless router.

    1. you have a far greater choice of products for the router, and they are usually less expensive.

    2. in the event of the death of the router you can still have internet via the modem directly. If the combined unit dies, you are in offline mode.

    3. less functions in a more simple design makes the device and averages more stable and more reliable devices.

    4. you can replace a device at any point. For example, if you pass the ADSL or FTTH cable you can simple replace the modem. You may need to change the configuration on the router but other internet connection so that you can keep the router. Similarly, if two years from now, you want to get the router new generation wireless you can continue to use your modem (if it is still suitable for your internet speed)

    Some thinking...

  • C7280 all-in-One connected wireless to modem-router needs a password when it is fed - up.

    Do you have examples of wireless connection to a HP Photosmart C7280-all-in-one to a network managed by a modem-router method NB6Plus4W? The modem-router attach also your desktop of Windows XP by using an ethernet cable and a laptop computer to Windows XP wireless using the default (wireless) SSID and password (a1b2c3d4e5).

    The wireless connection between the modem and router and the laptop happens automatically when the modem-router and laptop computer are powered.

    The wireless connection between the modem-router and the HP Photosmart camera does not automatically. When I put power on the HP Photosmart camera, I then use the setup on the Photosmart button and type manually in to the Photosmart (a1b2c3d4e5) password. The SSID also displays wireless, it doesn't have to be retyped.

    Do you know if there is no method or HP configuration that will result in the automatic installation of the camera HP Photosmart to occur when it is powered?

    What I am complaining about is having to manually type in the HP to HP password whenever the HP is powered.

    Go to Setup > network > advanced settings > IP settings and now select Auto and press OK. See if this stops the question.

    If that doesn't work, then go to settings > network > restore default settings of the network, and then run the Wireless Setup Wizard to connect to the network.

  • HP Deskjet 2542: Cannot print wireless Deskjet 2542 after installing the new modem/router

    We have recently installed a new Netgear modem/router and have not been able to print wireless since installation. I tried everything I could find on the forum and still no luck. Any help will be appreciated.

    Replacement/change your wireless router, try here.

    http://www.HP.com/global/au/en/wireless/reconfiguring-system-Help3.html

    Make sure that your router is set to a fixed channel wireless as the 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto '.  Try each of the channels one at a time.  Make sure they are spaced at least 5 feet.

    However, if you have a gateway device (modem + router), all gateway devices are terrible for connectivity and wireless performance.   If this does not work, suggest you put this bridge in full bridge mode device and install your own router of high quality that YOU have full control over.

    As long as you have not changed the administrative password on the actual router, not the wireless password, this problem has a solution. What you need to do is to connect your computer to your router via an ethernet cable. Make sure that your LAN connection is enabled. After connection, open IE or whatever browser your prefer. Log on to your router using the IP address in the URL "192.168.0.1" line By default, administrative logon information are ID: "admin" and password: "password". From there, you have access to options to change your wireless security settings.
