Web interface of WRT120N show WiFi Protected Setup message repeatedly

We have a WRT120N already configured and used for 2-3 years, which recently began displaying a message asking me to press the Wi - Fi Protected Setup button on the device. While in this State, work DHCP and wireless connection settings remain the same. It seems that the internet connection works if the router was not in that State when turned on, but not if the router was in this state when it is started.

A few weeks ago, he did something where the wireless connection on my laptop would display Wi - Fi Protected Setup instead of WPA2 Personal as security, and then the connection would drop after a short period. Turning on the device, and then turn that would set, but does not necessarily solve the current problem. It happened a few times, but not more recently.

The device is out of range, then the WiFi Protected Setup button has not been pushed back. Before this problem came up, I had downloaded a firmware update, but not him have not applied because the router is difficult to access, and now I'm worried that the device could be unusable if I try to do the update.

I'm guessing that maybe it's a physical failure due to the humid climate here. Any ideas? Thanks for any help.

Hard reset the router and reconfigure from scratch.  Once completed and verified working updated the firmware, hard reset and reconfigure back once again.

  • What different manual wifi vs wifi-protected setup

    I manually configure my wifi router.  When I turn on the MAC filtering, if gives me a warning that I can not use the Installer "wifi-protected.

    (1) how different manual wifi vs wifi-protected setup?

    (2) why is it using a manual configuration with the installation of wifi protected lockout (green list) MAC filtering?

    Thank you

    Ed S.

    Hi edspyhill09. Yes, it will disable Wifi protected setup because you try to filter the Mac addresses of the devices you want to connect to your network. Only the mac addresses that are listed can connect to your network so it defeats the purpose of having the WiFi enable protected configuration. WiFi protected setup allows users to connect multiple devices to the network and activate encryption of the data by pressing a button which is most of the time on the front panel, or some of it is in the rear panel of the WPS. But WPS does not apply to all devices because some gadgets are not able, only devices that are capable of WPS can take advantage of the WPS feature. Manual WiFi is the classic method to connect to your wifi network. You find the ssid network name and connect to him, if he will ask for a password, then just type the password and voila! You are now connected to your wifi network. I hope this helps you!

  • PLE400, PLW400 and WIFI Protected Setup network printer problems

    Hello

    Well, I have a router Linksys EA4500 with the PLE400 and PLW400 wireless Extenders wireless installed in my house. I put extenders using the utility-Cisco Powerline AV following the directions (same keyword static, PLW400 password entered in) and has increased the range of my router effectively. However, since I installed the PLE400 and the PLW400 I can't get WIFI Protected Setup to work on any of my wireless printers. I have two wireless printers Brother HL-2270DW who stopped working when I installed the extension and cannot be connected to the router, since then I use the WIFI Protected Setup. What the devil?

    I pressed the buttons to reset for 10 seconds on the PLE400 and the PLW400 and then set them to the top and still had the problem. Then I thought that maybe there are any available firmware updates. And there are so I updated the firmware on the PLE400 and the PLW400. Now, everything works fine. >.

  • VLAN and the SSID does not not in the Web Interface

    We have a couple of APs which do not show the VLAN and via the web interface of AP SSID.  If you go to the SSID Manager page in the web interface, the page rises but doesn't show any SSID configured.  It goes the same for Services - Vlan.  This page appears but does not show in any VLANS configured.  If you telnet to the APs, you see the mssid listed and all the SSID interfaces.  The SSID on the access point is functional and working.  It is just so hard to use the web interface for these APs.  I tried to compare configs running on APs where the web interface does not show this and APs that it shows, but cannot see any differences.

    Thank you.

  • Switch P 52 SG500 - web interface shows the wrong model and disconnects randomly

    Ladies and gentlemen!

    One of our network switches is a SG500 switch 52p that recently started showing strange behavior.

    It started with the problem was not more accessible via its web interface. Even if it was running perfectly well access via a web browser finished in wait times.

    After resetting the factory default switch and configure its IP address access at first seemed to work but I had to know that the switch breaks out as a SG300 28 p switch on the administration Web site. In addition, random logoff occurs that send back me to the login page. Each from time to time, the model is correctly displayed after the login, but when I try to manage it I a connected again.

    It still works with an older version of the firmware (1.2.xx I think) but that shouldn't cause such behavior, it should? In any case, I can't update the firmware says the switch as a different model.

    Any suggestions what to do (apart from the RMA)?

    Respect,

    Hendryk

    Hello

    I'm sorry that you are having problems with the device and I'll try to give you the best possible advice in the circumstances.

    The first thing that comes to mind is that you connect to another device, the thought is the SG500. I did the experiment several times before, so I have a few suggestions to ensure we are connection to the device:

    1 - Download the Cisco FINDIT and scan tool you rnetwork, maybe you will find that you have two devices, the SG300 and the SG500. Here is the link:

    https://software.Cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=282833583&flowid=...

    2 - go to the switch that you believe to be the SG500, then go to Administration, and then discovered - CDP, and then click CDP neighbor information. Most likely, you will see that you have several switches, including the SG500.

    3. If you have followed suggestions and you still believe, you go to the right switch then call at the 866-606-1866 (of the United States) and we will be happy to help you control the device and replace it if this is the case.

    I really think that the first 2 suggestions will help you realize that you have two switches on your network.

    Please let us know what you find.

  • ACS Web Interface 5.1 does not

    We have a Cisco Access Control Server (TACACS+ version 5.1) with an additional
    2 port NIC card. This produces 4 ports on the ACS server(G0 through G3).

    After initial setup of the ACS server with an IP address on G0, I connected a Windows 7
    server with IE8 to G0. The ACS web interface appears (after accepting certificate) and I
    entered some user accounts and NDGs.

    I then connected the ACS server to a configured port with port-security on our 6500
    switch. The port becomes err-disabled since the MAC address does not match up. It appears
    that the onboard NIC on the ACS server is bonded thus producing the MAC address issue.

    To fix this connection issue, on the ACS server, I cleared out G0 and setup G2 (additiional
    NIC card) with the IP address. After connecting to the 6500 switch, the ACS server port
    works fine.

    I removed the connection to the 6500 and connected the Windows server to the ACS.I can ping
    the ACS server but the web interface is now unavailable unlike before. I do not get a
    certificate warning on IE, it just states that internet not available.

    On ACS, the 'show' status of acs shows all the processes are running and initialized.

    Any help would be appreciated. It has got me stumped as all I did was change NIC configuration
    on the ACS server.

    Antonio

    I wanted to check if the failed to load web interface could also be due to something on the 6500 switch.

    So far:

    You have been able to see the Web interface with the ACS configured on G0 and directly connected to the PC Win 7.

    With the G0 set to ACS, you saw some MAC problem and so no web interface.

    With the ACS configured on G2, you can test the ACS server when it is directly connected and connected to the 6500, but in both cases do not display the web interface.

    So, it seems that you have two options:

    (1) seek to solve your problem of port security 6500.  (You have access to set up the port-security 6500?)

    (2) fix the G2 interface configuration.  If you do not see the web interface with the Win 7 PC directly connected then there is something wrong with the config on GBA.

  • EA2700 - unable to return to the old Web Interface

    Hello

    I have an EA2700 that I am moving back to the old interface, however it error whenever I try to install the firmware.

    That's all that I always get this message:

    Unexpected error that the firmware update has failed. Please try again later.

    We encountered an unexpected error. If the problem persists, please visit our Technical Support site.

    I have reset the router several times, he turns off all night, re-uploaded the file several times and I am still unable to restore successfully. Sometimes she same error when I try to set the password of the router itself and I have to reset it again before I can use the interface.

    Was setup to give than to try, and Oh surprise when I connected to my router this time I was introduced to the classic web interface

    Among the updates of the firmware Failed must have actually managed, even if he just kept throwing error messages. To be sure, I re-flashed the old firmware from inside the classic interface and it worked perfectly without errors.

    At least I am now finally back to where I was before the clouds rolled in.

  • NAS200: Unable to connect to the Web Interface

    Just set up my new NAS200.  I could install two (2-1 TB disks, RAID1) disks and set the IP address.  However, I can not connect in the administration area of the drive to set up users, shared directories, etc..  The doc on the CD has no value.

    When I run the initial Setup, I wonder for a pawword.  I enter the password that I entered in initial Setup, and I get.  However, this leaves me not do anything other that configure stuff of basic training.

    Someone at - it suggestions?

    Thank you.

    I was able to eventually get through the web interface.  It turns out that the system was not ready yet.  I have 2 1 TB drives in a RAID-1 configuration, and it took the best part of 2 days to get into shape.

  • E4200 Wi - Fi Protected Setup feature

    I want to buy the E4200 linksys wireless router, but I have a question about its Wi - Fi Protected Setup feature. I would like to manually configure the wireless settings of the manual option, the basic page wireless settings web router, in particular, I need, for some reason, to disable the 2.4 GHz radio and I need to put 40 MHz as the width of the channel of the 5 GHz radio, as well as to set the mode of 5 GHz mode only Wireless N I also need to manually set the personal WPA2 as option the encryption method and manually set a random password of 63 characters. Since I have a bu-ray player and a TV that two support Wi - Fi protected setup, and both are capable of handling 5 GHz Wireless-N signal with the 40 MHz channel width, my question is: If, after having made manual changes above in the basic settings in the settings of the router's wireless security and wireless , I try to use Wi - Fi Protected Setup of the router function to add the bu-ray player and the TV network, the router doesn't change my long 63 characters pass phrase and the other wireless settings I changed at the beginning of some other values, which also allows the 2.4 GHz radio that I turned off manually?
    Thank you very much

    Well, then do not use a password of 63 characters long. Which isn't really better securing your network in any case. The password that long would not make a difference in a brute force attack that is extremely likely to occur. Rather an attacker would try to break the 256 key that is derived from this password by using weaknesses in the Protocol.

    For example, if you use WPA2 + AES and TKIP not a strong password of average size of characters may 16 is usually more enough then. Even for 16 characters, a brutal attack against the password is likely and would have taken a long time to succeed.

  • LaserJet P1102w: History of how many pages each toner printed in web interface?

    Is it possible to find in the web interface for the printer, a story of when a new toner has been inserted, and how many pages it had printed upward? I know how to access this story, but from what I can tell, it only shows the current number of toner and the page.

    Hi @paulri,

    I understand that you want to know the history of how many pages have been printed of each toner. I'd love to help you.

    You can print a Configuration report to get the total number of pages printed from the printer, but not individual toners.

  • No works Web interface access vlan but ping

    I have an ISA570 and SG300 in L3 mode setup with 3 vlan

    Vlan1 is default (192.168.1.x/255.255.255.0)

    VLAN2 is invited (192.168.25.x/255.255.255.0)

    VLAN10 is workstations (192.168.10.x/255.255.255.0)

    When I connect to the VLAN1 network I can access the Web interface of the router at 192.168.1.1 very well and also to 192.168.10.1

    Soon I connect to VLAN10 I ping the router 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.10.1 but I can't access the Web interface?

    In the ISA570 ACL rules

    VLAN10 is allowed access to all other VLANs or WAN

    VLAN2 is allowed access to WAN

    The SG300 switch is 192.168.1.2 VLAN1 or 192.168.10.2 in VLAN10 and can also ping the router 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.10.1

    Thank you...

    192.168.10.X is allowed for Remote Administration?

  • Confused by Web Interface

    Several attempts with different browsers have failed with errors as a "certificate of untrustworthy" for https:// < mymachine > 8333/ui. Do not understand what is really happening, work around the error because I trust, what? my own machine? Can I get a dialog user and password that fails still, because the installation never asked me for one of them and I don't know what they are referring.

    I heard this web interface regularly trashed here, but I want to at least get the basics of work if possible with my setup. First of all, I don't have a domain, just a couple of servers on a private home subnet. So, in my case the FULL domain name would simply be & lt; MachineName & gt; which is what I entered on the installation... I have no suffix DNS, only the name of the Working Group, I think that it is not relevant anyway (correct me if I'm wrong).

    If someone could explain what is happening in the web interface, I would be much obliged. The VM papers don't say much. Can I still do in my setup or should I try a previous version using the Console.

    Thank you

    ... Can I get a dialog user and password...

    It is a user name & the password of a user is valid on your host system.  If Windows, try administrator.  (I don't know if you can use a user account that does not have a password.)
