Router WRT54GS wireless can not connect to internet

I am now using a WRT160N router, everything is ok, nothing happens

I have a (ver 6) WRT54GS wireless router that I have not used for 2 years.

yesterday I took the WRT54GS out of the Junk box and replaced the WRT160N by the WRT54GS

I have a desktop computer that is wired & wireless laptops. My Office recognizes the local network and my laptop signal but the my router cannot connect to the internet.

I tried everything:

reset

firmware update

but nothing has worked

If anyone can help. my ISP is comcast and it comes to my modem http://www.motorola.com/Consumers/US-EN/Consumer-Product-and-Services/Cable-Modems-and-Gateways/SURF...

Bypass the router and connect the master computer directly to the modem.

Make sure that you can access the Internet on your primary computer directly via the modem.

Connect the modem to the Internet port and main computer to the Ethernet port on the router.

Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait 30 seconds. Power cycle the router and reconfigure it manually.

Follow this link to configure the router with cable Internet service.

  • WRT610N wireless can not connect to internet

    I have a WRT610Nv1. It worked perfectly for about a year until my internet whent out. I have reset my modem and the router and one day more late my wireless connection could not connect to the internet. I can connect to my wireless router, but I can't do it to the interenet. However, if I use a wired connection, I can connect to the internet. I have tried power cycling, releasing the ip - IP, MAC address, change the beacon interval, fragmentation & rts threshold, change the ip address of the router, encryption, disable my firewall, disabling of cloning to renew the upgrade of the firmware.

    I even bought a new WRT610Nv2 and had the same problem. I spent four hours on the phone with support linksys technique, and they couldn't help. Only, they went through the basics and everything I had already tried. I call the comcast tech support, and they say it's a problem of router and they can't help me.

    I have comcast cable with a modem of the RCA, a Dell XP laptop.

    Finally! I copied the MAC address of my wireless card and manually put in the MAC address clone. This does not work, then I went back and clicked on the 'Clone MAC from my PC' button (which I had already done a dozen times before). After ten days, I guess the stars were aligned and the network gods were looking down on me because he suddenly started working.

    So I'm crazy and tried to restart my laptop, and it still works. So for fear of messing with anything now, but I'm going to live dangerously and turn on encryption.

    Thanks to all those who have offered support.

  • I have been connected to the internet (wireless), then I unplugged the router and now I can not connect to internet. I tried diagnose the problem, but he said that he could not.

    I have a wireless internet connection for my laptop. I was connected to the internet, and it worked very well, so I had to unplug my router and all of a sudden I can't connect to the internet more. When I open the available networks, I hit connect on mine and he said: it does not work then I hit "diagnose the problem" and then, he says he can't. Also it is not even give me the option to set my password to connect to my network, but it does when I try to connect to any other.

    I suggest to unplug all your network cables and unplug the adapter from your modem AND router. ONLY plug your modem back power adapter in. Wait until you get a steady green light on your router, which indicates that it is ready. Then, connect the ethernet cable from your modem to your router INTERNET port. Connect the ethernet cable from your computer to any other ETHERNET port on your router. Finally turn the monitor for your router.

    If you do not do so in this order, the router can not connect properly to the internet because it doesn't have the correct IP address of your modem.

  • Router WRT54G wireless does not work with the new modem

    Hi, I use my router WRT54G (Firmware version v2.02.7) on 4 computers for more than four years now, without any problems at all. However, today I had to replace my old modem with a brand new modem Speedtouch from my supplier, and although I made sure each cable has been connected properly, it just doesn't.

    The connection between my PC and the router (http://192.168.1.1) is good, but the problem must be between the router and the new modem. When I click on 'Status', he said: ""connection status: disconnected".

    After clicking on the 'Connect' button, it tells me that it "can not connect to the PPTP serverbe"

    Help, please

    Hi Matt,

    Although the resolution of this problem was a little simpler, I still thank you for your answer.

    The neighbor boy came up with the following response:

    «It just check the Type of Internet connection, cause you got an old type of modem before.» It will probably be set to PPTP. If this is the case, simply change it to "Automatic DHCP Configuration", click on "Save Settings" and everything should be ok then"

    And he was right!

    I am so happy

  • After that the virus can not connect to internet

    My computer running Windows XP has been infected by a virus 'Alert system' fake who took over the office and hide all my files. I was able to restart in safe mode, run Malwarebytes and Microsoft Security Essentials to capture and remove some viruses. I was also able to display most of my files and desktop programs. (I also tried to do a system restore, but this doesn't seem to work). However, I can not connect to the INternet using Internet Explorer. I reset IE, but I can't always connect. It seems that IE starts to open the URL, but is then blocked somehow by the virus, which redirects to the default "diagnose the problem. The cables are connected and the Internet works. What other options are bypassing them that blocking and/or resettlement of IE.

    The error you received seems to indicate that there is a need to reset Winsock.  You could try running the FixIt program contained in this article, or the manual procedure:

  • Qosmio F30: Can not connect to internet with WiFi safely

    I recently purchaced a Toshiba Qosmio F30 laptop and have spent the better part of two days trying to connect to wireless internet. After constantly call Wanadoo (my provider) and accusing them for all this, I thought that the laptop itself is at fault.

    What happens is when I try to enter my network key (WEP), default is a different key that I can't see that it's all in the points! This continues to be and im am totally unable to enter my network key. Until it is I turn off security on my livebox thingy and connect unsecurely and as I live in close proximity apartments, other people can and probably will connect to my internet, and I am also told that makes me more at risk of viruses and other.

    I apologize for my lack of technical jargon, and that I can not give a more descriptive... uh... description, but I'm just a beginner and not the most in computer science.

    Any help would be appreciated more!... Why is nothing simpler!

    Hi Luke,.
    Have you tried WAP (shared key) instead of WEP.
    In this way, you will need to make your own key instead of having the it generated by the router.
    It is also safer.

    To do this, you must enter the settings of your router (usually http://192.168.1.1 or http://192.168.0.1), enter the password provided by Wanadoo, then click Security. Change the setting WEP WAP (or shared key) and enter a 10digit password then you will need to enter it again when your computer tries to connect to the router again.

    It is best to use a wired connection to change settings, then disconnect the cable and wireless.
    If you notice that you are connected wireless to the router, and your internet connection is dead, temporarily disable the LAN (reactivate when you are satisfied with your connection works). This would happen if your computer includes your wireless network connection to other computers and the wired connection like you internet connection (even if there is no wire connected).

    It is also important to change the administrator name and password to access your router (this would prevent your neighbors children playing to change your settings).
    Let me know if you have more problems.

  • WUSB54GSC Wireless does not connect to Internet

    Hello

    I have an ongoing dilemma.  I have an adapter WUSB54GSC I try to connect to the Internet with.  I tried several remedies listed on this site, as well as several times for loading and unloading the adapter software program.  I loaded the drivers of the adapter using the knowledge article 4088 Base (who worked as indicated).  I have another computer that is connected to the same router connects the wireless card, and the other computer has no problem connecting to the Internet.

    However, I am still not able to access the Internet with Linksys WUSB54GSC.  I use the Windows XP Media Center operating system, and the router is a NetGear WGR614 54 M RTL.  With all the efforts made so far, what I've accomplished becomes the wireless adapter to connect to the router.  And yet despite this, the wireless network card software never shows an I.P. address or a subnet mask address (these two are always 0.0.0.0).  He has never shown a gateway address (that's all just empty).  And the two lines of DNS information are empty as well.  So, I'm at an impasse as to why I can't do the Protocol appropriate in the adapter information, so it can make the connection with the Internet.  I tried using the configuration of the adapter through the procedure XP wireless.  I get the same results.  The monitor in the systray icon has always said the address is sought, but he never finds one.  Can someone help me with this problem?  Thanks for any help!

  • Satellite M305D-s4831 - I can not connect to internet

    Model - Satellite M305-S4831 (brought to the black Friday)

    Problem: I simply restart my laptop, and I can't go on the internet.
    My modem and router that a sharuter works very well, the connection between my PC to the router is good, but can not go on the internet.
    I went to the network and sharing Center, and the windows network diagnostics stipulate that:

    "" www.microsoft.com"is not configured to establish a connection on port"World Wide Web (HTTP) service"with this computer."

    I used the Toshiba recovery media disk (included when I brought my laptop) to restart my laptop.

    > My modem and router that a sharuter works very well, the connection between my PC to the router is good, but can not go on the internet.

    You have configured the router with the data from your ISP (internet service provider)?
    Without the right data you come out not and will not be able to reach all of the Web sites.

    But if the router is configured correctly, then this could be a problem with your firewall software or its configuration.

    I also read that different Anti Virus software may cause this problem, especially if you use different tools. A guy has had this problem, because it used the Norton Internet Security and Kaspesky. The two applications were not compatible and have blurred the internet configuration.

    By the way; have you tried to connect via LAN or WLan? Check both!

  • Linksys Router WRT160N - Wireless does not connect to the cable modem

    I installed the Linksys WRT160n router to replace an existing G router. When installed the new wireless router works, but the router does not receive a connection (IP address - look under status) of the cable modem (so no internet). When I reconnect the old router and then connect the new router, I get any internet connection through two routers (so the old dishes router the IP address that accepts the new router).

    I have configured the router N new for

    "Automatic configuration - DHCP", no need for connection, IP address dynamic, etc (as required by ISP - Timewarner)

    I tried to renewal and release IP address by the router N when it is connected directly to the main switch (the switch to connect to the cable modem). In so doing, shouldn't that assign a new IP address to the router?

    I am allowed 3 IPs from the cable company (because of the switch) and I use all three with three different internet IP cameras to each address for home security system.

    Any suggestions on why the router is not connecting to the internet? Do I need to reboot physically everything on the network, including the cable modem?

    If I understand your post, you said that your ISP gives you 3 Internet IP addresses and you have 3 cameras that use one of these Internet IP addresses.  If this is correct, then that leaves no IP Internet address for your WRT160N use - so that would explain why your WRT160N cannot get an Internet connection.

    If I misread your post, and you have an Internet IP address available for the WRT160N, you might have a problem with your modem and two WRT160N tries to use the same 192.168.1.x subnet.  To check this, follow these steps:

    (1) Please indicate addresses that use your cameras (IE before you take the test below).  If the addresses do not begin with 192.168, then erase the last half of each address.

    (2) Please indicate your ISP

    (3) Please indicate the make and exact model of your modem (not the WRT160N) number.

    (4) Please do the following test:

    Put your entire network.  Disconnect the switch (including cameras) to the modem.  Using an ethernet cable, connect your modem directly to your computer.  (Do not use the WRT160N for this test).  Turn on the modem and the computer.  Make sure you have an active Internet connection, then go ahead with what follows: (even if your Internet connection does not work, include this and move forward.)

    Go to 'Start' > all programs > Accessories > command prompt.
    A black DOS window will appear. Type "ipconfig/all" (with no quotes), and press the Enter key.   Copy all results in your next post.  To make the copy, highlight the results, and then use the keys copy (Ctrl-c) and paste (Ctrl-v) keys.  If your "IP address" does not begin with 192.168, then for security reasons, delete the latter half of your IP address.

  • Alienware m11x wireless can not connect online

    Hello

    Very pleased with my new laptop; However, could not connect online with my wireless feature. I have another laptop at home and it can connect with a Wi - Fi connection. The m11x can be connected via a wired connection.

    I'm running a full edition of Windows 7.

    I got tired of updating the website of dell DW1520, uncheck TCP6 (which shouldn't make a difference), turning on and off of the driver, type the IP address and DNS server manually. Another strange thing is, when I connect with wired setting, he says: I'm also connected wireless. Wireless fails and connects sometimes. Most of the time, it fails.

    I'm tired of everything I know and come from the fact that I really need help.

    Thank you
