Wireless router to modem Homeportal 1800 HG 2wire Linksys WRT54G with questions

I have the Linksys WRT54G, and I'm trying to use it as the router to my modem 2wire Homeportal 1800 HG wireless.  The 2wire has four ethernet Sockets in the back marked from 1 to 4 and a telephone jack to connect to the wall for AT & T DSL service.

I have the phone jack connected, and:

-an ethernet cable

-to one of the sockets at the back of the 2wire ethernet

-to the 'Internet' on the Linksys ethernet jack

- and an ethernet cable

-to one of the ethernet (1-4) at the back of the linksys

-to the ethernet port on the computer

The Linksys is unable to connect via the modem and reports that it may not get an IP address from the PPPoE server.  (Directly connect to the 2wire works well though.)

Who am I wrong configuration?

There is no side effect of bridge mode... It is one of the mode in which the modem function. When the modem is in bridge mode, you cannot go online with the computer connected directly to the modem... and you will get a 169.254.x.x ip address.

So after you convert the modem into bridge mode, you must do the PPPoE settings on the router to go online via router.

  • 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!

  • Wireless router not working do not! Help someone? WRT54GS

    I have the router WRT54GS v. 6. I've had this router for about 8 months and now it seems to give me problems. My Linksys Easylink Advisor program could not read my router, when I opened my Linksys Advisor my WiFi router network has not shown "Wirelesss router" he showed that a 'bridge' on the bottom right is my computer. I uninstalled and installed linksys Advisor from the original disc that came with my wireless router. I opened the program from Linksys and my network name, clicking Next, it says it is trying to detect the router, but it is not. All wires are not working, I even changed my ethernet cables around to see if that was the problem but they are beautiful. For some reason it can't read my router more. Ive tried to install this new program LELA 3.0 but I keep getting errors when trying to do this thing .NET 3.0. Any ideas?

    Would say allows you to configure the router manually instead of running the Easy Link Advisor depending on your service provider Internet suggest you to make settings & you will be able to go online with no problems.

    Yes, simply plug the CAT5 Ethernet cable into the WAN or Internet port on the wireless router.  That's what Verizon for their FIOS service.

  • How to re - configure a Linksys E1200 wireless router after that I got a new Modem

    I just got a new modem.  My E1200 Linksys wireless router no longer works.  Technical support said it should be redefined to work with the router.  How do I do that?  Thank you

    Hi, feibelal ! You don't need to have an active Internet connection on your Mac to be able to access the user interface of the router E1200. The steps in the link provided by Thaddeus_A should do your router works.

  • Linksys wireless router is not my new Motorola modem Internet access

    I am relatively new to setting up home networks, so it's maybe a stupid question but I'm stuck! I bought a new modem Motorola (SurfBoard 1621) as my old Motorola modem was not favorable to the increase of the speed offered by Comcast. The modem I bought was a model recommended by their web site. They recorded the new modem last night and I can access the Internet when the PC is connected directly to the modem, but not when the laptop is connected to my Linksys wireless router. (Sorry, I don't know the model because it is at home and I'm at work!) Is there something I should do for the router to recognize the new modem? The router recognizes the wireless laptop, but it can not connect to the Internet.

    Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

    Success! Thanks a lot for your answer. My router is a WRT - 54G links.

    The instructions were very informative, although I have a suggestion. Just restart the modem and the router did not work. I had to reboot other equipment in my system (a NetGear firewall and a level switch 5 ports) and the router and the modem. I would like to see the reboot of reference tracking "and other devices. I guessed the appropriate power of sequence (modem, firewall, switch, router, computer), and fortunately, it worked.

    Again, thank you for your quick response.

  • Encryption advice please WRT160N router/gateway/modem wireless

    I would like clarification on security and encryption please.

    I have a WRT160N router/gateway/modem wireless with WPA security is enabled.  I have a wired office with LELA installed and a wireless laptop.  A key is required when connecting the laptop but on page properties in LELA, it says "wireless encryption - no ' is this extra encryption in addition to the security theWPA. WH n I try to enable it, LELA asks the password admin but after entering that does nothing (except once again ask!)  What I am doing wrong?

    Thank you

    That your network is already reached, but him dosent software LELA display you something on your safety. This means that the LELA was not able to properly synchronize with the router and its wireless settings. So in this case, you do not have to worry about this, if you want you can uninstall and reinstall the LELA software on your computer, that might solve the problem. Or of another Complitely uninstall LELA software from your computer.

  • With the help of WRT300N Wireless Router with a USB modem (satellite)?

    Hey there!  I tried to find this answer in various places online, and I saw a few things that have led me to believe that this is possible, but nothing to explain as thoroughly as I'd like.  I have a N of Linksys WRT300N wireless router.  For the next few months, new home construction we do service by cable or DSL, so we use the Cricket's broadband Internet, which connects via a USB port (Cricket is a 3G network, managed by a cell phone company).

    I'm trying to understand if there is anyway that I can connect internet Cricket USB to my computer, as usual, but then connect my router to the computer somehow so that I can distribute this wireless signal?  I'm having crazy to move the thing USB from one computer to another and would really like to connect my PS3 wireless signal, thus.

    Does anyone have an idea how this could be done?  If so, could you explain to me what I need to do quite exactly?  I am running Windows Vista on this computer.  Thank you very much in advance for your help.  You're going to be spare me months with a value of pulling my hair out, believe me.

  • Why can't I access the modem 192.168.1.1 when connected to the wireless router?

    I'm unable to access my DSL Modem 6100 Westell using 192.168.1.1 when connected to the Netgear WNDR3400 wireless router. I can access it, however, when I connect directly to the ethernet port on the computer without going through the router. I've set up according to the instructions. Is it possible to correct the problem?

    This isn't a problem.  This is the standard behavior.  You are connected to the side LAN of the router that is isolated from the side WAN (uplink).  This is the mode of operation of routers.

  • Problems with Zoom combo cable/modem (model 5350) wireless router

    Hey all,.

    I recently bought a zoom 5350 router without wireless/modem cable unit and noticed that my wireless connection was slow. I disabled the option "Flood IP Detection" (apparently a lot of people had this problem) and my speed wireless so far has been great. However, the laptop my sister (an Inspiron N5110) still has slow connectivity. I have the same laptop and I don't have any problem, then I guess that the problem is probably with his own computer. Are there possible solutions to this problem?

    Thanks in advance.

    omi291,

    Reading of the record HERE, I see the Zoom 5350 will connect on the 2.4 GHz ONLY.

    Are you using these settings to the recommended wireless router I use channel 11. I have a new SSID to connect easier.

  • Wireless router is disconnected from the PC (s) during the use of Firefox 37.0.1

    This problem occurred for the last 2 weeks whenever I use Firefox on each of the 2 PC's I use it every day. The problem may occur a few minutes after the start of Firefox, or it may be hours of continuous use before the connection is lost. It's okay if I'm in Firefox by itself or have the background applications running, but without a doubt requires Firefox runs before I see a problem.

    Configuration: WIN 8.1 and VISTA 64. the two latest updates.
    LAN: cable modem and Belkin wireless router; together with the latest firmware.
    Firefox v37.0.1 without add-ins or modules. Start page is 'empty '.

    Symptoms:
    Status bar Windows shows that I'm disconnected from the router.
    Router and the modem status LED shows that I am connected to the internet. Same thing for the VICTORY of the network status app. It shows no connection to router.

    The problem can be temporarily fixed by power cycling the router. Or, in the meantime just a random delay the connection may (or may not) be restored on its own.

    I also use a standalone PC application that streams the text given in short bursts and runs all day (no video or music... just short lines of text) with no problems until I launch Firefox in the background. Then he can go a few hours before the connection to the router is lost. I also often watch videos on my Tablet without the router problems. While typing in this issue on a PC I was disconnected from my router. I'm hoping to get some suggestions as to what to inspect or modify. Thank you!

    Fred, I had to leave the House early this morning and had no time to dig a cable long enough to reach my modem to try your suggestion. But, what I did was half of your suggestion. I pushed the reset bit recessed on the modem and left the House around 08:30 with Firefox running on both computers. Seven hours later everything is normal. No router disconnects and I gave a very good workout system.

    I have also now initial notice that connects to the web sites are faster.

    It is obviously a logical explanation for what was going on, but to an outside observer (), I see absolutely no logical link to the 'solution' for the rest of the universe. I won't lose sleep on. And I'm going to ask you more specifically when the next puzzle problem occurs! Thank you, Fred!
