The best wireless router?

• Working Group stopped after the installation of the new wireless router

  My working group stopped working after the installation of the new wireless router.  Router was switched were to move from DSL to fiber optic.

  I have a very simple home with two laptops working group, the two are connected with a wireless router.  A PC is running XP with the updates and service packs; the other PC is Windows 7 Home premium.  This working group was running without problems for a few years.  The Working Group has been used to share files between two laptops.  Internet access was through the DSL wireless router and print was with a wireless printer, without going through the working group.

  I had my DSL set out to free fiber optic last week, which meant that a new wireless router has been installed by my local phone company.  Internet works fine; wireless printer works.  The working group no longer works.  When I try to connect from XP to Win7 and I click on mode workgroup computers, I get this message:

  WorkGroupName is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.

  The network path was not found.

  I tried to create a new working group, the new name for the same workgroup on both machines, but this did not help.  Working groups are supposed to be simple; This seems to be a problem on the new router - telco tech support says that nothing is stuck on the router. I don't believe them.

  What version of XP you use (Home or Pro)?

  Can you access the Win 7 a XP computer?

  You have identical accounts, passwords on both computers?

  If all that was done was to change routers without making any changes on the computers, the most likely cause of the problem is a third party (other than Windows) firewall on at least one of the computers.  Being by default, a router automatically assigns IP addresses to computers on your local network.  Different brands of routers, but use different address ranges.  For example, Cisco/Linksys routers typically use the 192.168 form addresses. 1.1 with 192.168. 1. 254, while the D-Link routers typically use 192.168.1 to 192.168.0.0. 254.  A firewall configured to allow only the first IP range blocks communication to the scope of the latter.

  So... What is the name and version of your anti-virus program?
  What other security software is installed?

  On every laptop computer, open a command prompt window
  for XP: start > run > cmd > OK
  for Win 7: type cmd.exe in the search box and press enter
  In the black command prompt window, type the following command and press enter
  ipconfig

  Please provide the values for the following for the adapter wireless of each computer
  IP (XP)
  IPv4 address (Win 7)
  Default gateway

• 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.

  1. click on Start and run
  2. type in the box to run services.msc

• Unable to connect a wireless printer with laptop computer since the reset wireless router

  I have a wireless HP C4580 printer that connects to my Acer Aspire laptop using windows 7. The two have worked together very well for months.  My wireless router stopped working a few days ago, so I had to unplug the device to make it work again is it.  But since then, I can't get my lap top to communicate with the printer now.
  I went all the problem of shooting and insured the printer is on line and set it as default printer. I even did a system restore, as suggested in the troubleshooting
  With the help of the program are the two messages that I get now troubleshooting
  1 that the C4500 series can be contacted via the network (this is the message that I had before the restoration also)
  2 the C4500 series is not shared with the homegroup

  All the tips are greatly appreciated in progressive simple language as possible as I am a bit useless with computers

  I assume that the printer is all first directly connected on the router, then the laptop?  Access the router and make sure that the printer is listed as a "wireless client" connection  If this isn't the case, you should probably restore the wireless "link" between the printer and the router then the printer should work.

• The e2000 wireless router does support jumbo frames?

  I can't find (unless I missed it) and in the e2000 on how documentation set sizes of frame of reference.  Is that supported?  If so, what are the steps?

  A fact important is jumbo frames are not compatible at a speed lower than 1000 Mbps

  I think that Linksys E2000 already has Gigabit Ethernet ports.

  And I think that you can change the size of the image on the properties of the Ethernet adapter if the card is a Gigabit Ethernet card.

  Hello

  You should be able to connect to any router with Notepad. The router transmits a wireless signal to certain frequency 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz, so you must have a wireless card that supports these frequencies. The CPU of the laptop is not important. The most important component for wireless is the wireless card. Almost all wireless cards supports at least 2.4 GHz so also that each router works. This means that the laptop is compatible with the router. However, before you buy a router to do some research and buy a good. I suggest buying this one: http://www.netgear.co.uk/home/products/wirelessrouters/ultimate-performance/WNDR4500.aspx

  I use this one: http://www.asus.com/Networking/RTN66U/

  I had mobile phones, tablets and laptops connected to the router and not at all with any device problems. The asus router has two separate wireless networks on 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz so you have less devices on each network instead of all devices on the same network as on most routers. There is also a network of comments, which means that there may be three different networks on the router.

• Cannot connect Windows XP computer to the wireless router

  Original title: why did I have to disable my ethernet on my front XP computers connections all of a sudden they would connect to my wireless network

  I installed a new AT & T wireless router

  Only my Windows 7 laptop would connect to the new wireless router.

  For my XP desktop and the laptop I had to disable the ethernet connections [although no cable not connected] so that the wireless to connect.

  I did it on a whim after days of not being able to connect and many calls to support AT & T.

  Both computers have shown the presence of the network, had 4 or 5 bars and had the right key WAP.

  So what did this happen?  XP update?  Wireless driver update?  The AT & T router?

  I had the problem until I'm the new router, AT & T AT & T could find nothing wrong with the old.

  Their "solution" was to send a new router - Netgear v the Westell, I had for days of Bellsouth.

  Hello

  
  Have you tried to proceed as stated in my previous post?
  If you want to continue to launch other steps, you try to temporarily disable the firewall and check. Check out the following link.
  How can I turn on or turn off the firewall in Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later versions?

  Note: on disabling firewalls, viruses, or malware can get into the system. After you complete this step of troubleshooting, turn on the firewall.
  Note: A firewall is software or hardware that checks information coming from the Internet or a network. Then, the firewall blocks the information or allows information to pass to your computer. If the information is blocked or passed through depends on your firewall settings. A firewall can prevent malicious software (such as worms) to access your computer through a network or the Internet. A firewall can also help stop your computer from malware sent to other computers. Windows XP, Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) and Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) include firewall software.

• Adding a new wireless router from Linksys at an old Linksys router system

  Hello

  I'll install a new standalone DVR to a home video surveillance system.  I would like to be able to access it with my current PC so I would like to add a Linksys wireless router.

  I'm currently 1 Linksys Wireless - G Broadband Router with speed Booster model WRT54GS-BP and 2 models WMP54GS from PC that have PCI adapters Wireless-G with speed Boosters (802.11 g).  I had these installed since 2006 and although they are no longer supported I really want to have to upgrade because they work very well.

  My questions are:

  If I add a new Linksys router to my new DVR will be able to communicate with my older Linksys router and adapters?   If Yes, what would be the best new router Linksys type should I buy?

  Thanks in advance for any help and advice.

  Hi Dan,.

  Please excuse the delay of time here, but I had a hard time to post a reply.  I added Ethernet Wireless-N - WET610N bridge.  When I installed the software, I kept getting error 102 - an error occurred communicating with your device.  I called Linksys for help and the tech had me make a few changes to the router 192.168.1.1.  I was able to install the Web Service to display the camera on both of our PC.  So the addition of the WET610N allowed us to access the DVR wireless!

  Thanks a lot for all your help!
