The misfortunes of WRT610N - signal high but dropping internet

So I got a WRT610N since June 2011 - works perfectly without having to think about, I just hooked it up and it has been on the default settings and never gave us any problems.

About a week ago the power went out - and it caused the router to reset to the factory settings. I've put up with our network name and the security and don't think much. After that, we started to notice questions on our phones and laptop in the kitchen.

I work in the same room as the router, wifi and did not have the signal drop once since then--my work laptop is about 3-4 feet from the router. Another PC through the router works fine

Continuously on the strip of the 5 GHz for tv, a room, works perfectly, like netflix, youtube, etc on the TV.

Once you get to the kitchen, on the laptop there (which has been there for months without problem), wifi is completely laminated. This is maybe the router through only 1 wall of 40 feet. The signal of 3 to 4 bars and windows reports still says 'internet access' for the State of the connection, but the connection drops on a regular basis, and you must manually disconnect and reconnect to the wifi to restore internet access. It of the same story with the phones if you are more that about 20 feet from the router - they have a strong signal, but will be lowered on a regular basis, requiring you to disconnect and reconnect. The 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands seem to be behaving in the same way.

Normally, I would say that the power outage fried the right thing and get a new one - but he is works perfectly at short range and still give a strong signal to longer-range - juggling just not the internet.

I factory reset it several times since it began. I tried different settings on both bands, different security, no security, etc. But nothing seems to help, that's why I post here - help!

Thank you for reading.

Try to reset to the factory settings and then update the firmware. After the update of the firmware, a 30-30-30 reset hard and then reconfigure the linksys from scratch.

InSSIDer allows to find the best channel. And try to use 20 MHz only for the width of the channel.

If by chance your modem is a router too (for example. "You have DSL), try to change the local IP address of the linksys 192.168.2.1.

  • WRT54G good signal wireless but no internet connectivity.

    I have a WRT54G that has worked well for about a year. Last Sunday, I installed a couple of small updates from Microsoft on my main computer (cable via an ethernet cable from the router). At the same time, I installed service pack 3 on my girls (wireless) counter top.

    Since that time, on my three computers wireless I shows the strength of very good signal from the router but no internet connectivity. Internet works fine on the computer by cable.

    I have reset the router, no luck. Updated the firmware, no luck. Released and renewed until the cows came home and still no luck.

    I uninstalled the router of my main computer and reinstalled. During the installation it tells me that the router cannot find the internet even if the computer that works is connected through the router.

    I tried a different router (even part old version) which was a router to work when uninstalled about six months ago. I went through the installation process and it is the same, the router cannot find the internet.

    Is it possible to have two bad routers that the internet can pass through but the router cannot detect?

    At first I thought changing the setting of the Microsoft updates, but I restored my computer to a date before the updates and still have the same problem.

    Any help that anyone can give is most appreciated.

    Well there are some knows the problem with Service Pack 3 from Microsoft with wireless connectivity. You can uninstall SP3 from your computer and it will not solve the problem.

  • Problems with the power of the Xbox 360 WRT54G signal

    Here's what I have high down.

    Reference Dell 530 (wired)

    XBOX 360 Arcade (wired)

    XBOX 360 Elite (wired)

    Printer Dell Wireless (wireless)

    Dell Dimension 2350 (wireless)

    I started with an xbox connected to the linksys router and had the excellent signal (HD quality) for Netflix strength. I added the second xbox and was still five bars of signal strength. About three days ago for netflix on the xboxs signal strength is only cut up to two bars. The rest of the House working at full power, but I can't get Netflix on the xboxs back to what is a. I tried to reset the two routers, by disconnecting and then changing the port to the xboxs, upgrading the firmware for the router and finally tried just an xbox connected both. (not in that order)

    I contacted Netflix and thay make any change on the end there, no changes have been made by my ISP.

    Xbox live is running at full speed, I'm not able to get the strength of Netflix.

    Any help is greatly appreciated. We use no cable, and that's how my family watches TV

  • I can't sync my phone to my computer and get the message that my phone doesn't have the latest version of Itunes. I downloaded the latest version on my mac, but what I do on my phone. I'm used to be able to synchronize the two.

    I am more able to sync my I phone on my Mac and get the message that my phone cannot be used because it requires a newer version of iTunes.

I used to be able to sync the two and now I can't even download the photos from my phone on my mac...

    iOS9 on a mobile device requires iTunes 12.3 or higher, which in turn requires a computer running OSX 10.8.5 or higher.  Update of the system only checks the updates for the current version of the system you run, but that itself can be updated.  It may or may not be possible to upgrade your computer to the system requirements. Find your computer on the web site of http://www.everymac.com model and near the bottom of the specification of the system section, he will tell what versions of the operating system, it is able to run. If you can not run a newer system, you will not be able to sync this phone to your current computer. If she can run 10.8.5 or higher, you can either buy a download for Apple OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion code online, or you can try to install the free El Capitan OSX 10.11.  El Capitan can run slower on older machines and require the additional purchase of RAM.  Making a big jump in versions of system is also more likely to affect the old software.

  • Why the extreme to express signal is broken

    I have an Airport Extreme b, g, n, ac cable (ethernet) to my router Verizon Wireless. The router has been updated by Verizon end of last year and works very well. From there, I have an iMac with 802.11 b/g/n/ac cable into the extreme as well. I have a Windows pc in another room wired with ethernet to the extreme as well.

    At the back of my house, I have an Airport Express b/g/n I used to extend my Airport Extreme signal for the past 18 months without any problem. I had problems of signal with the Express and it seems to re-defining the Express worked, but the image of my signal has changed my Airport utility on my iMac. Previously, the signal was solid from the far down to the Express, and the image on my iPhone 6, at the launch of my Airport utility has been broken from the extreme to the Express.

    Now the images are reversed where my iPhone has the solid signal, and my iMac broke the line signal. Someone knows why? It works, but the lines threw me.

    A dotted line between the terminal of the AirPort Express and AirPort Extreme indicates that the Express connects to the extreme by using a wireless connection.

    What do you want?... or... the Express linking to the extreme by using a wired Ethernet cable connection?  If If this is the case, there should be a continuous line between the Express and Extreme.

    What device do you have used when you reset and reconfigured the Express... the iMac or the iPhone?

    Did you completely turn off the iPhone, has waited a minute or two and then he fed up and checked the AirPort utility again this way?

Help!

    Hi, Arghbee1.

    Please visit Apple support communities.

    I understand that you are unable to AirPlay from your Mac to your Apple TV.  Here are some troubleshooting steps that I recommend to go through this problem.

    Get help

    If you do not see the AirPlay icon , make sure that your Apple TV is awake and that it meets the system requirements.

    If you do not see your Apple TV in the AirPlay menu, make sure that your Mac and Apple TV comply with the system requirementsand your software from the Apple TV is updated. Also check your firewall settings:

    1. Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click Security & Privacy, and then click the Firewall tab.
    2. Click the lock icon and enter an administrator name and password.
    3. Click Firewall Options.
    4. Deselect the option "block all incoming connections".
    5. Select the option "automatically allow signed software to receive incoming connections.

    If your office does not look great on your HDTV, high-definition TV could apply image quality improvements that are not the best for the computer images. Check the manual of your HDTV for more information on how to adjust your HDTV settings for use with a computer. Your HD TV could offer a more appropriate display mode, such as the computer or game mode mode. Also try adjusting the HDTV settings like sharpness, retail building and noise reduction.

    If you mirror your screen and the image correspond to your HDTV screen, you can adjust the size of the Office for the best image. Click the AirPlay icon, and then select an option under "game size desk to." If you fit to desktop size to your Apple TV, the image fills the screen HDTV but will not look as good on your Mac screen. Learn more about overscan and underscan and what you can do about it.

    If AirPlay disconnects itself, your wireless network can be too busy or have too many wireless interference to maintain the connection of the antenna. Learn how to solve the problems of Wi-Fi connectivity. The manual of your router network may have additional suggestions for maintaining a strong and fast connection with your devices.

  • Equium A100: Crisp & slows down sound while the use of CP's high

    When I play a cd/dvd, or extract the contents of cd for laptop, or whatever it is which includes the use of the D: drive, the sound is all distorted and crunchy and slows down. also, the CPU usage is very high, and it won't let me write anything on disks.

    This has happened a few months now, it was workin perfectly before hand and I've only had the phone since Christmas, so it is still under warranty. It's an equium A100 series.

    I've been looking around on the forums and found athread on a similar problem but on a laptop satellite, and which was resolved by a new drive being installed because the original was defective. the link to this thread is:

    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=21308

    so is that what someone had the same problem? does anyone know if a new hard drive would solve the problem on my laptop? and if not does anyone have any suggestions?

    Thanks for any help, dave.

    Hello

    Equium A100 is very similar to the Satellite A100. So maybe it's really a problem even as described in the other thread.

    But listen David, before you send the laptop and want to replace the HDD try first to reinstall the OS from the recovery CD!

    Try everything first format the whole HARD drive, erase the partitions and reinstall the OS.

    If this does not help, it would be wise to check, if the same thing would happen with the new HARD drive!
