Problem with WRT54G2

Hi people, I'm having a problem connecting to the internet using a wired connection to my desktop computer (w / Vista) to my new Linksys WRT54G2 router.  The purpose of the router is to set up a simple home network with a wired to my office and a Wi - Fi connection on my laptop.  A few weeks ago I've implemented successfully using my old desktop computer (w / Windows XP) but I can't seem to make it work with the newer computer using Vista.  There is nothing wrong with the Wi - Fi connection... my phone was able to connect any desktop computer, the router is connected to.  It's the desktop connection that I have problems with.  I am able to enter the router configuration page via my web browser with no problems at all.

I am not the most technically savvy person, but I tried pretty much everything I can think of or find on the internet and nothing has worked.  I found reports that the top of my model is compatible with Vista.  I tried the Linksys Setup CD... I tried setting up manually just by using the settings page.  I updated the firmware as well.

I tried to release/renew my ip address hoping that would help, but I can't do it anymore... I get the message "the operation failed as no adapter is in the State permitted for this operation."  Apparently, this was related to the Winsock corruption but to check the Microsoft Web site, I don't have any of the symptoms of this.  Also, I don't know what Winsock, so I left there.

The modem which must be part of the network is a Westell value bridged ethernet and DHCP disabled, defined in accordance with the instructions of my ISP.

Any help you could provide would be appreciated.  I'm becoming addicted to having this problem and I need help.

  • Yet another problem with WRT54G2...

    Well I had on and off problems with my WRT54G2 router, I got it for about 3 months now and recently full of endless problems... No, my problem is when I turn on my PS3, I get a pop-up message on my computer, there is an IP address conflict, I've never had this problem until today... my PS3 has its own IP address... so when I turn on my PS3 I lose connection on my computer... honestly im tired of having problems with the * beep * thing... anyone has a solution?

    Toomanydonuts is right, can be your PS3 and your computer gets the same Ip address of your router, which is causing this problem and this is why you are not able to go online. It's better, you provide a static Ip address to your PS3 and this will solve your problem.

    You can assign a static Ip address on your PS3. IE: 192.168.1.10 subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 default gateway / router: 192.168.1.1 preferred DNS: 4.2.2.2 and auxiliary DNS: 192.168.1.1. Once provide you this static IP address to your PS3 it will solve your problem.

  • Realtek 81xx NIC "Cable not connected" with WRT54G2 on Windows Vista

    Hello, I have this weird problem with Realtek 3 different integrated NICs, connect to a WRT54G2 configured as an Access Point.

    I have installed and configured the WRT54G2 without any problems using my computer laptop buildin NIC and wireless adapter, it worked like a charm. However, try to connect two different PC with integrated NIC Realtek 8168 me Gets the problem of "cable not connected". When I click on this cable in to my laptops NIC, it works.

    I've tried everything. In advanced settings, I changed the speed to 10 Mbps, 1000 Mbit and 100Mbit and back to auto. nothing. When I plug the cable in 10Mbit, the lights on the NIC on briefly then darken again. When they do not appear there is a message "unknown network".

    It is not energy saves the settings, I turned them all off. Also any firewall setting is killed on the clients.

    I even bought a cheep * beep * PCI NIC, which has been using a Realtek chip set 81xx; don't turn back, "cable not connected" everywhere.

    I've never seen anything like this. With any other router is most of the configuration work, now, I spent the evening in the hope of seeing the yellow and orange lights flash to appear. This is the way to complicated for no reason.

    Anyone can say anything about it? I think to get to a simple Belkin do the work.

    Have you tried another ethernet cable... Try it.

    Connect to the Linksys configuration Page and reduce the size MTU to 1300 and click on save settings.

    You can also try reducing the map of the computer (NIC) speed to 10 Mbps half duplex / 10 base mode half T/10.

    If the foregoing, all action does not work, try to reset the router for a minute... Check it out now.

  • Problem with the cable on PC with usb54g wireless network

    I have a pc with a usb54g interface that communicates very well with my wrt54g2 router.  The router is 192.168.1.1 (default), and the pc has a static (wireless) address of 192.168.1.10.  My problem just is whenever I try to connect to one of the connections on the pc to a switch 100base2.  (The 100baseT interface is on 192.168.2.1).

    Whenever I turn on the switch, I lose my connection to the IP address that my satellite modem has attributed to the 'internet' on the wrt54g2 interface.  I am running Windows XP, SP3 on the pc.  Can I fix my problems with the installation of the network in the windows GUI, or should I change my command prompt routing tables?  I suspect that, when I get an address for one network other than that the pc is aware, he is trying to use the interface that he thinks is faster, obviously wired LAN.   I apologize in advance if this has already been covered on the forum.

    You can do this by using the GUI under Windows by changing the metric parameter of the interface under the advanced part of the configuration of the connection network GUI.

  • Problems with mail after switching to macOS Sierra

    Hey all

    After having recently upgraded to macOS Sierra, I am unable to read my mail.

    I get the following error every time I check on "Get Mail".

    There may be a problem with the mail server or the network. Check the account settings "*" or try again.

    The server returned the error: Mail could not connect to the server 'pop1.tribcsp.com' using SSL on the default ports. Verify that this server supports SSL and that your account settings are correct.

    What does this error message mean and how can I solve this problem.

    Thank you

    Hi Michael,

    I see your message that you get an error in the mail indicating that there is a problem with the mail server or the network.  To help get this problem resolved, I suggest that you follow the steps below:

    If mail refers to a problem with the mail server, or the network

    Mail will say that it is impossible to connect due to a problem with the mail server or the network. For example, the message may refer to a connection that has expired, or too many simultaneous connections:

    If you are connected to the Internet, but the connection has expired, your email provider might be affected by a discontinuance of service. Contact them or see their status Web page to ensure that their e-mail service is online. Examples of status pages:

    If the message indicates the number of simultaneous connections, too many of your devices is check your e-mail account at the same time. Quit Mail on one or more of your other devices.

    If you are still unable to send or receive e-mails

    1. Make sure that you have installed latest version of the Mac software updates, especially if the problem occurred immediately after the installation of a previous update.
    2. In OS X El Capitan or later version, you can see a status icon and the short error message in the upper right of the Mail window, under the search box. The message may indicate 'Network offline' or 'Connection failed', for example. Click the message to see more details on the issue.
    3. Check your connection to the Mail connection doctor. It might be able to say more on the issue.

    If you cannot send or receive e-mail on your Mac.

    Take care.

    My iMac 27 "has an intermittent problem with the CPU fan runs at full speed. Sometimes it happens at the time when I start it, sometimes only in my session, and sometimes only after a certain time. So does seem to be a problem of "heating".

  • Anyone having problems with the new iPhone LTE connection 7 on Verizon?

    I am now on my iPhone second 7 with Verizon. I had four phones for me and my family. I have now had issues where I have no signal in the same areas where my signal allows to be strong. I can't solve the problem with the activation/deactivation of the airplane and then mode again in normal mode. My phone will rest with no signal for 5 minutes, then going to LTE with three bars. I also had the problem where I had only 1 x signal, while my son standing right next to me has LTE. And he had the same questions, where I'm on LTE and it gets no signal. I use to have LTE where I live and work all the time, now it's spotty at best. Apple has replaced me and my sons iPhones but not luck. Still do. Any ideas or an any other suffering?

    (1) go to settings/cell phone/cellular data Options/enable LTE and select ONLY the DATA. This seems to solve the problem (as a temporary solution) for most of the people affected by this problem. The bad part is your request might not be as clear (since they cannot use the highest LTE signals) and you can make calls and data at the same time. But it does not solve the issue.

    (2) there are rumors (but you didn't hear that from me that we only are not supposed to discuss beta software program Apple in this forum) that the new version of Apple Beta for iOS (which also includes an update of the software carrier Verizon to 26.0) seems to solve this problem. So, there's a light at the end of the tunnel.

  • Problem with some fonts of symbols after the installation of the Sierra

    Hello

    I have recently upgraded the OS on my iMac late 2012 for Sierra, since doing so, I noticed a problem with several fonts.

    All symbolic symbols Apple to Wingdings fonts not correctly displayed in the font book. Apple symbols looks like a standard wheelbase of san, and other symbolic fonts just show as question marks '?' where the images should be.

    In text editing, that I can't even see the symbolic fonts like Zapf Dingbats and Wingdings in the selector. However, they all work well in Adobe Illustrator (CS5) and Microsoft Word 2011. Apple symbols still looks like a standard font.

    I already tried the following:

    1. check the fonts in font book

    2 fix the duplicates in the font book

    3. using the "Restore Standard fonts" option in the font book

    4 deleting a file in the folder Preferences plist Fonts

    5 deleted the cache of police and the database

    I'm out of ideas. Has anyone else had the same problem found a fix?

    Kind regards

    Greville

    I'm just to add that I used the recovery partition to do a clean install of Sierra on a hard drive external and then booted into it to see if it had the same problem.

    And he does. Wingdings and other photo fonts appear as '?' in boxes where the letters must be in the font book.

    So this seems like a problem with the way Sierra displays these fonts, not with the font files themselves.

  • ios10 problem with non-users of iphone messaging

In about 60% of the time it is not just to deliver the message no matter what I do (pressing the 'Try Again' don't work do not). He has no problem with the reception of the texts, but I can't answer to Android users (Interestingly, I can message users of Android if they are in a group with iPhone users text).
