NIC WRT1900ACS shows all devices wireless LAN connections

You just bought a WRT1900ACS which seems to work well, except that the NIC appears all devices as it is connected to the local network instead of on the 2.4 GHz band or 5 GHz to which they are attached.  This is true for our iPhones and Chromecast devices that aren't able to connect via WiFi.  Any thoughts on a way to solve the problem?

You will need to wait for the next firmware update and hope they fix it.  I guess that your WRT1900ACS updated when you set up and it has no doubt the 1.0.0.172978 firmware version because this version really screwed up for the network card so that it is not usable.  The 1.0.0.168229 original version came with a problem of restart, the next vesion 1.0.0.169041 does not solve the problem of restart, the 1.0.0.172978 last seems to have solved the problem of restarting, but presents Newwork card problems and in addition several people (including myself) reported that the most recent firmware version reduced the power of 2.4 and 5 GHz TX on 10dBm compared to previous versions of firmware.  If you want to follow all the discussions on these points follow the section entitled "new firmware for WRT1900ACS 1.0.0.172978.  This topic is up to 10 pages now and continues to grow.

  • Why are these networks 0033, livedoor-web, mobilepoint shows on my wireless network connection

    Why are these networks 0033, livedoor-web, mobilepoint shows on my wireless network connection? At Microsoft this downloaded without my knowledge in my laptop in the network connection and the internet? Are these safe to use and that they cause to slow down the internet connection?

    Your wireless network card is just a receiver (transmitter).  As for a 'normal' radio on which you are listening to music, news, sports, etc., your wireless network card will 'listen' to any nearby wireless network and provide you with a list of these networks:

    Wireless networks that do not require a security password appear with the icon of the shield, as the "linksys" network in the figure above.

    In general, you should only connect to networks that you know are secure: your own, networks that you know the password, or maybe a public network such as those provided by restaurants and other commercial establishments.

    None of the networks that list you are likely to be public networks.  You will not be able to connect (because you do not know the password) or you should not connect because they might be dangerous.

  • A Wi - Fi (Wireless LAN) connection is disabled in Device Manager

    The laptop is HP Pavilion G4 running Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit).

    I just re - install my laptop Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit) for Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit).

    But I just realized that there is no "HP Connection Manager", so I downloaded it from the internet.

    When I turned on the wifi of "HP Connection Manager", he says "Wi - Fi (Wireless LAN) is disabled by the Device Manager".

    What should I do next?

    Thank you!

    Hello:

    You will probably need to install the driver for the wireless card there.

    If you see a device network controller listed in the Manager of devices, then you certainly need to install the driver for the wireless card model that your laptop uses wireless.

    Affects: all Android smartphones and tablets connected to standard wifi router. Computers laptops connected wifi or any cable/hard-connected computer not affected.

    Symptoms: Any Android device after a period of 12 to 24 hours when trying to access the Internet via wifi of this router will be very slow. Its only when I restart or turn on the router power switch it restore then this speed until a permanent 12-24 h all Android devices will return to its slowness.

    Anybody with an explanation, because it makes no sense. What started without reason during the few months but the router had no update firmware of a year +.

    Why don't reboot the router thus made all Inet speed to all Android devices, but then after X number of hours become so slow brutually until the router must restart another?

    Nice... guess I should understand this beast almost 5 year, gave up the ghost and his time comes essentially to choose between Asus or Netgear based out of sites like smallnetbuilder.com I want a router v.powerful of AC3xxx or AC5xxxx. Wanted to wait the next Wifi standard replace AC but that takes too much time.

  • Linksys WRT1900ACS shows all the ports that are open and firmware restore.

    Hi bought a new Linksys WRT1900ACS and has the following questions.

    a. How can I determine whether version hardware version 1 og 2.

    b. making a portscanning on the Linksys WRT1900ACS for the internet I found that several ports where free.

    When I went into the Setup, I get only portforwarded 20/21.

    I could access my internet QNAPS 3 + more.

    But the router WRT1900ACS didn t show this when it has been planned, why?

    I now that the QNAP may change the port settings, but I do not have "done this or asked for it", but why it does not appear

    When I log in the WRT1900ACS via Smart Wi - Fi.

    (can not see all 3 QNAPS when I use my linksys EA6500 router.)

    c. After you have determined the B. I tried to Flash the firmware with the firmware OPENWRT. But now I can access the WRT1900ACS and the WiFi is not charged more. The normal router works. How do I get:

    D: flash the original firmaware (via lan)

  • Linksys WPC55AG, WPC54GX on wireless LAN, "connected to the AP, but Internet is not found.

    Aloha, finally a forum thar actually solves the questions, mahalo.

    These two wireless network adapters used to work properly with my DSL modem Westell 7500. Now, not so much.

    I can wire Enet cards pcmcia network very well. I see my Brother MFC885CW wireless printer.

    I'm on a gateway 9100, Win2k, Service Pack 4 running.

    Linksys utilities show that I received, but do not send bits.

    ipconfig gives 0.0.0.0 for the IP address auto configuration

    I looked at the parameters of the DSL router, I don't see anything strange of course.

    I also use wireless MAcBook Pro, airport, very good works. Hmm

    Any thoughts?

    The WPC54GX allowed ascii/text in box 1 WEP key, the WPC55AG has failed, only hex characters. However, after a search fast on another computer, I found an alpha decoder spell and managed to enter the WEP key in hexadecimal form, which I was able to confirm the MAc RPN calculator. Network cards do not seem to do the conversion correctly. I knew this because of my string of characters in the password.

    Also, the dual-band has been assigned, when he did at all, a "unrelational", (best way to put it) the IP address of 169.254.81.145, instead of a 192.168... as I was expecting.

    So with a little effort, both network adapters are now connected to the internet, and ipconfig shows well, as valid information.

    Some once said that I spoke in hex, there you have it.

    Thank you very much, I would say that the problem is solved.

  • Automatically use the wired on wireless LAN connection when using the docking station

    Hey guys!

    I use the my T500 with the Advanced Mini Dock @TheDude recommended in this thread: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T500-Recommended-Compatible-Docking-Station...

    I had almost a month now, and whenever I anchor my laptop I have to pass the connection wireless switch off hard or using FN + F5 and extinguish this particular radio.

    Is it possible to have the computer automatically choose the wired connection when it is available, otherwise use the wireless radio?

    I use Windows 7 Prof 64 bit.

    Thank you

    c1p0

    ThinkVantage Access Connections (AC) can be configured to do this. Change your location profile and change the order of the adapter associated with this place, for example, order first as Wired and Wireless second.

    When I am connected Wired and I pull the Ethernet cable, AC will switch to using wireless automatically. When I put the Ethernet back in, it starts automatically by using the wired and wireless don't report limited or no connectivity (which means that the switch has occurred). You will have to perhaps set up wireless in AC power options, i.e. disable radio when not in use (I did not sentence again).

    This could be similar to a docking station solution. Mine is without docking station; When I'm at the office and go to a meeting, I pull the wire and have continuity.

    Ideally, the CA should provide a solution. But it may take some fiddling.

  • Is there a way to disconnect all devices?

    People keep complaining that I do not answer when I'm not connected. I thought maybe it was Skype high reading on my phone, so I uninstalled it. But the problem persists. People see me as 'available' when I'm disconnected from all the devices I own.

    Anyone know what could possibly be the cause? And is there a way to fix it or is it possible to display all devices, I'm connected?

  • OfficeJet Pro 8625: HP8625 sleep mode/wireless network connectivity

    I recently bought an OfficeJet Pro 8625 and it worked fine for a few days, with everyone in the House, being able to print wireless connection network (Verizon FIOS via an Airport base station).  However, now it won't keep (or restore) a Wi - Fi connection after going to sleep.

    I can get the printer to work, if I turn it works, then immediately print (but only one machine... If I need to print from two different computers, I have to restart again to use the second computer).

    This is the case for all computers in my house - using several OS X (El Capitan, Mavericks and Snow Leopard) and the other with Windows 10.  I tried the troubleshooting tips that I could locate, and the firmware is up to date.

    I should be able to send a document to the printer from anywhere in the House, from any computer, without walking to the printer and restart it first.  A network printer should be sprained able himself, reconnect to the wifi and print jobs sent to it, but mine doesn't.

    How can I solve this problem?

    These settings are to set up your wireless printer to stay connected to your router, wireless devices stay better connected and makes your router secure and hack proof.

    While the DHCP is convenient, devices like printers must always be assigned an IP (fixed) manually to avoid conflicts on your wireless network.

    1. Set a static in the printer IP address (click here) outside the range of the DHCP of the router (check your manual). It is for Linksys routers, but can be used for all routers. Check your DHCP range and change this first if necessary. More Help Wireless Printing is here (Windows solution 4, static IP).
    2. Or check in the printer "Auto off" is disabled the System Mode Time Out is set to zero (0) Use the built-in webserver (EWS) by visiting the printer address IP address in the address bar of your browser, click on settings tab/Auto Off. Or use the printer, printer Home Page (EWS) Wizard. Also check the properties of your printers.
    3. If the printer supports and has IPv6 enabled, disable the IPv6 option in the printer.
    4. If necessary and you have assigned a static IP address, try using auxiliary for the preferred DNS Server 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as DNS server.
    5. Wireless printers work only on the 2.4 Ghz band.
    6. Make sure the printer is on the latest firmware by checking with the HP support site.
    7. Check all devices wireless in your home for interference. Check microwave, babyphones, phones, wireless and wireless alarm systems are a big culprit. Any of these will knock at your printer wireless intermittently.
    8. Make sure that your printer and router are at least 6 feet, independently of the other.

    In the router: (refer to the manual of your router for more information)

    1. Use a fixed wireless channel as the 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto', try channel 1 first then the rest.
    2. Set the router to 20 Mhz only or 145Mbps router function.
    3. Always use WPA2-AES encryption (personal), but you can try the "mixed" mode
    4. Disable the WPS and never use it and disable the UPnP for the security of routers. No one can hijack your system now and help with wireless connectivity (if you want to know why, research on the web).
    5. If you have a router dual band (2.4 Ghz and 5.0 Ghz bands), make sure the SSID is NOT identical, they must be different for all the bands, even for networks without comments.
    6. SSID broadcast should be enabled.
    7. Save all the settings. Food at the same time, wait 2 minutes.  Power on router wait 2 minutes.
    8. Marketing the printer and check that it reconnects to the router.

    Windows 7/8/8.1 is discovered the system on or off?

    1. Control Panel/Network and Internet/network and sharing Center / advanced sharing settings.
    2. Under home or work (current profile) / network discovery.
    3. Select "Turn on network discovery" and save the changes.

    Now last thing to do once everything above has been tried and you still have the same problem, completely uninstall and delete the printer and its software.

    Use http://www.iobit.com/en/advanceduninstaller.php and powerful Scan at the end.

    Now go back and reinstall the drivers and full software on the HP website.

    Last resort effort - if your printer has an Ethernet connection, suggest you to get some adapters line and convert your Ethernet wiring for your printer.

  • Problems with Realteck 8187 B wireless LAN adapter

    I am running Windows XP and since a month started having problems with my Wireless LAN connection. The installed adapter is a Realtek 8187 B. When I start the connection opens briefly, then begins to show the low connectivity with yellow dots under the icon on the status bar. Sometimes I have connection then connectivity closes its doors as soon as I pass my home page.

    Other times it falls back after about 5 minutes. I can usually clear it by restarting the computer sometimes twice. What I need to download an updated driver.

    Thanks in advance

    Jamie

    > Do I need to download an updated driver.
    I think you should check the portal Tosiba WLAN and install the latest version of the driver Windows XP Home edition. Do it first and check the functionality.

  • Satellite C850-B820: WLan and LAN connection limited

    I bought satellite c850-b820 part No. PSKCEV-04P00FAR (without BONE) 3 months ago.
    I installed 8 64-bit windows and installed the drivers from the Toshiba site.
    It works perfectly.

    A week ago from the problems starts since I installed the update of the Bios via Toshiba service station.
    First of all the wireless limited connection (unable to connect to the internet).
    A day after the ethernet also limited connection (no internet connection)

    Tests to diagnose and repair failed even re installing the drivers.
    After formatting the computer and re install windows and drivers but without success.

    Automatic diagnosis and repair does not solve the problem but the computer restart again and again. I thought that the problem of the OS, it is why I installed windows 7x64bit with its pilots.

    It works since yesterday but wireless.
    Mention that I tried F12 it means wireless works but actually does not work.

    Help, please

    Now, you use the Win 7 64 bit. Right?
    WiFi does not work but the WLan card is recognized in Device Manager?

    Have you tried to install the WLan driver right?

    I guess that the WLan card isn t working because the correct driver WLan isn't installed.
    I think that the laptop supports the Realtek 802.11b/g/n Wlan / Bluetooth module drop-down list.

    Number of brand and model of the router?

    These settings are to set up your printer wireless (or wired):

    • Stay connected to your router
    • Trouble printer status 'offline '.
    • Wake mode 'sleep'
    • All wireless devices stay better connected

    While the DHCP is convenient, devices like printers (wired and wireless) should always be assigned a (fixed) IP address manually to avoid conflicts on your wireless network and must be outside the range of the router DHCP.  After the adjustment of the static IP address the computer must be updated to show a Standard TCP/IP port with the IP address of printers under printer properties/Ports.

    1. Set a static in the printer IP address (click here) outside the range of the DHCP of the router (check your manual). It is for Linksys routers, but can be used for all routers. Check your DHCP range and change this first if necessary. More Help Wireless Printing is here and here and still more here.  Video here explains the problem and how to solve the problem. <--> So watch this!
    2. Or check in the printer "Auto Off/sleep/Energy Saving Mode" is disabled the System Mode Time Out is set to zero (0) Use the built-in webserver (EWS) by visiting the printer address IP address in the address bar of your browser, click on settings tab/Auto Off. Or use the printer, printer Home Page (EWS) Wizard. Also check your printer properties.
    3. If the printer supports and has IPv6 enabled, disable the IPv6 option in the printer.
    4. Make sure that the printer is connected directly to a socket wall and not to a UPS, power strip or a lightning arrestor. This will cause the printer to drop offline connection and disconnection (checked yes!).

  • Satellite L300-19Y - wireless LAN is not in the list of devices

    Hi I need to throw this one out there incase I throw my pc a bridge...

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300-19Y which recently gubbed the HD, so I replaced and am trying to install XP SP3.

    However, even with what i belive to be the correct drivers I can't seem to access my wireless LAN.
    I installed most of the pilots involved, and have access to the Internet via the NIC with a connecting cable.
    It was a struggle to get even, even if I really need a wireless...

    At the moment the wireless device does not appear in the list of devices, although I can see my network card.
    I have some thoughts on how to activate the wireless, I tried to install the driver manually wireless but didn't get any wherever I get a code 10 XP Shutdown response.

    I've updated the BIOS, I have the latest drivers 8187b, I installed the kernel, the chipset, the display and audio drivers... etc.
    I installed a new copy of XP but you have not installed all the drivers until I know that the correct procedure...

    Any ideas would be appreciated...

    Arghh!

    Hello

    You should try to activate the WLAN using the hardware on the laptop switch (must be defined on and with the combination of keys FN + F8.
    Did you do that?

    In addition, you can get all the drivers for your laptop on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    I assume that you have installed your laptop with a disc of Microsoft, so you should try it with the Toshiba recovery disc. It contains an image of the settings from the factory with all the drivers and tools. After that, everything should work fine on your laptop.

    Check it!
