Reset the WRT54G

I need to reset my router because it has stopped working. Now, I have temporarily my cable modem directly connected to the my PC ethernet card, because I couldn't get my connection to work via a modem-> router-> pc, so my question is:

As I can't find the installation CD that came with the router, if I reset, I need any password given? or is there a default one for any Linksys router?

I don't want to make this step forward in ensuring that thatI will have no problem. Any help would be really appreciated.

Need to configure your router... Press and hold the button of reset for 30 seconds... Release the reset button... Unplug the power cable from your router, wait 30 seconds and reconnect the power cable... Now re - configure your router...

You don't need the Setup disk to configure your router, you can configure all the settings on your router manually.

  • How to connect wireless the WRT54GS

    I have a router WRT54GS I want install Wireless with my Windows XP desktop that has only an installed wireless adapter. There is no ethernet on the pc port. I have reviewed the Stickys are and read that FAQ, but still did not find a response stating clearly how to set up the router without using an ethernet cable connected to the pc. I want to be able to access the configuration page based on the web as well for what I can fix my settings. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    As a general rule, it is best to configure the router using a wired connection to be sure that you set up your router and not someone else... So if you have any wired ethernet device, it is best to use it rather than try a wireless only configuration.

    You can set only through wireless, however, you must ensure that you are connected to your router at the beginning. More simple test would be to unplug your router power and control for available wireless networks. If there is still a "linksys" network to be seen, you must be very careful.

    Anyway, and then reconnect your router to power. Do your research to computer networks and connect to the network not secure "linksys". It is best to put the computer near the router to do this to make sure that you connect to your router.

    Then open the web interface at http://192.168.1.1/ default password should be "admin", no required user name.

    To be sure, it's your router, go to the status page, see that it's really a WRT54GS and check MAC address, that you see here. It must be identical to that printed in the WRT (maybe one or two off the coast in the last digit). If it comes from a completely different MAC address, check local and SubTabs wireless network and MAC addresses there. If all MAC addresses are completely different, unplug the router from the power and see if your computer is always connected to the interface web or not.

    Anyway, once you have established this really is the web interface of the router, check the version of firmware and on the router and that is available online. It is better to update the firmware before doing the configuration. If you have the latest firmware, you must configure the router. I recommend the following steps:

    1. go to the wireless page. Change the SSID to something unique. Save the settings.

    2. you will lose the connection. Redo your computer search for networks. You should now see the new unique SSID. To connect to this network and reopen the web interface.

    3. then set up wireless security. Enable WPA2-Personal with AES encryption and set a strong password. Save the settings. You will lose the connection.

    4. now, you have to reconnect. Depending on your computer and use the software to set up the wireless, you may need to remove the unique SSID firstly in the preferred network list before you can reconnect. Usually, the computer remembers the SSID joined before and does not connect if security settings do not match the one used before. But you should know that.

    5. as you are still using XP the computer may not support WPA2 and AES encryption (which is the best and strongest that you can use today). So, if you're absolutely not able to reconnect to the computer you will need to reset the default router by pressing the reset for 30 seconds button and start over. Then choose personal WPA with TKIP and a strong password. It should work. I would not recommend to use WEP is easily broken.

    6. Once you have successfully set up your desktop to connect to your secure wireless network, you should make a change more: change the password for "admin" on the configuration page "Administration".

    7. don't forget to clean the list of preferred wireless networks, in particular, do not forget to remove the network "linksys" to this list. Otherwise, your computer can automatically connect to a network "linksys" if one comes available nearby.

    This should be it.

  • Could not save the WRT54G Router settings!

    Recently, I have reset the Linksys WRT54G Router because I can't get the page with a note to "CONTINUE", I used to have. I can also save the new setting. What comes out is a blank page. Pls help me. Thank you.

    This problem is usually caused by suboptimal communication between the computer and the router. The most common cause for this is a computer software firewall problem, but there are also several other possible causes:

    To view web pages of the router (and to solve problems "Cannot save settings"):

    You don't need an Internet connection. 'web Pages' of the router are integrated into the router.
    Use Internet Explorer, it usually works.
    JavaScript must be enabled.
    Use a computer that is connected to the router.
    In the non-working computer, temporarily disable your firewall software.

    Point your browser to 192.168.1.1, and then connect to your router. Your username must be left blank. Your password is "admin" (without the quotes), unless you changed it.

    If you use Zone Alarm, do a right-click on the ZA icon in the taskbar (bottom right of screen) then click on "Shutdown ZoneAlarm" and see if that solves your problem. If this does not work, try the following with Zone Alarm: open the control center ZAISS, go to privacy, then temporarily disable Ad Blocking and Cookie Control and see if it solves your problem.

    Some Zone Alarm users reported that the addition of 192.168.1.1 to their address list "of trust" solved the problem. This trick can also work with other firewalls.

    If you use Noton Internet Security with the add-on Pack, don't forget to disable the blocker and ad blocker. Some users have reported that they needed to uninstall all Norton Add-on Pack.

    If you can not get anything to 192.168.1.1 then perhaps this is not the address of the router. Go to 'Start' > all programs > Accessories > command prompt.
    A black DOS window will appear. Type "ipconfig" (with no quotes), and press the Enter key. Look at the "default gateway". It is 192.168.1.1? Point your browser to the 'default gateway', can connect you to your router.

    If the above fails, unplug your modem router, then try again. If it solves your problem, then you probably a "modem-router" rather than a regular modem. A report with this problem and also specify the brand and exact model of your modem (not router) number.

    If all above fails them, turn off your entire system, unplug it from the wall, wait a minute, then lights up, then try again.

    If all the above tips fail, then reset the default router: power down the router and unplug all the wires. Wait a minute. Switch on the router, let it fully boot (1-2 minutes), then press and hold the reset for 30 seconds button, then release the button and allow the router to reset and restart (2-3 minutes). Turn off the router. Wait a minute. To connect to a computer, cable, a router's LAN port. Initialize the system. It should work.

    If you still have problems, then you must download and install (or reinstall) the latest firmware for your router. After the update of the firmware, you must reset the default router, and then configure the router again from scratch. If you have saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.

  • DNS server for the WRT54GS v6 problem

    This router running for 2 years without any problem (even on Windows7 since las year), recently it wont let me conect to the internet, network and say sharing that the configuration of the computer center are good but no response from the DNS server is present.

    (Windows 7 RTM Ultimate x 86, Bellsouth / AT & T ISP in Florida.) Conexion ADSL, nine cables ethernet and material held in the best conditions, the network card: Realtek RTL8102E/RTL8103 Family PCI - E Fast Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.20) (v7.2)

    ================================================================================

    What I tried:

    Reset the router or modem (connected to a Westell 6100), in order to define the default settings and (based on the Web reset and reset buttons)

    Flushing IP in CMD

    Make the web based configuration for my WRT54GS v6, releasing DCHP, renewing, defaults, etc...

    Upgrade the firmware to v1.52.7 (latest) nothing helps, dating back to 1.52.6 original.

    Shows Device Manager hardware works correctly.

    Windows 7 show me a link to view the properties of my WRT54GS when I right click on it, I also see the "Enable" option, but every time I use it I get "Connection Failed!"

    ===========================================================================================

    I'm not much of a tech guy, and read the forum does not help me a lot, so I ask for help please.

    PS: CD installed by default for her with her old EasyLink Advisor without success, tried also the last 2 Lela EasyLink Advisor, nothing helps.

    In addition, there is no default gateway glancing an IPCONFIG in CMD and now there is (192.168.1.1), which I use to enter its web-based configuration.

    That your ISP is a DSL provider, most of the DSL Modem has a DHCP server on them, so they act as a router. From now you the type of connection is NAT behind NAT.

    Order for your Linksys router to work with a DSL Modem. Connect to the Linksys router and on the Configuration tab configuration page, you must modify the "local IP address" to 192.168.2.1 and click on save settings...

    Once the settings are saved, unplug the power to the router and Modem, wait 30 seconds and then plug in the power to the Modem, and once all the lights are cover then you can connect the power supply to the router and check if you are online.

  • Is it possible to reinstall or reset the internal microphone of an iMac?

    Some background information:

    27 "iMac 5K (end of 2015) running OS X El Capitan (when the problem started), to give birth to Sierra of MacOS. Also have a Bootcamp with Windows installed 10 partition.

    A month ago, when under OS X, I noticed the internal mic produced some static when you try to use it. Audio messages in voicemails would be static instead of my voice. The weird part? If I switched to Windows 10, the internal microphone works without any problem. I can ask questions of Cortana, I can record voice messages and they read without static electricity. In fact, no matter what I use the microphone internal to in Windows, it works perfectly.

    Sierra of MacOS is out, so I hope that this update may be a BONE would settle the matter. Nope. Internal microphone still does not work on MacOS, but still works perfectly in Windows 10. It is because of this that I am positive the internal MIC is not broken or have a loose wire.

    I went through a few steps to try and fix the internal microphone, such as resetting the SMC... but nothing has worked. Any help or ideas on how to solve this problem would be greatly greeted.

    Hello dear user

    Thank you to use Apple support communities

    My recommendation would be to take it to an official Apple store, workers are espceialists, they might be able to fix, make sure also that you have never removed the water on top of the mic. In my iPad, a drop of water directed the music video of speaker if she never exceeds 30% volume of the music.

    But if you don't have a store nearby, uninstall malware and unnecessary software, make sure that you don't have a program that allows you to change your sound (like Skype) systems, if you don't do that this program has no impact on your microphone. (I used to have Skype but it also makes audio cut so terrible, piano music sounded like heavy metal music, so heavy metal music was like to...) I don't know what to say.)
