WRT160N: Getting dynamic IP address 169

Hello!

Linksys WRT160N, bought yesterday and I want it behaves same way did my Buffalo WHR-HP-G54. So I live in apartment building for students, and we don't have modems, just the RJ-45 ports in the wall. If I plug the cable directly from the wall of the network card in my computer, my computer receives the dynamic ip address from the ISP. With my Buffalo, I connected the ethernet to the WAN sa-port cable and changed the router in bridge mode. In this way, there was 4 other ports free for the other PC and of course wireless too much for the other PC. Each PC connected via the Buffalo had a dynamic ip address from ISP, up to five addresses, which is the limit of my ISP. I plugged the ethernet cable from the wall of WRT160N Internet port and disabled NAT, dynamic routing (RIP) and DHCP server on the router Linksys, so all my computers have addresses ip starting with 169. And when I plug the ethernet cable from the wall to a port other than Internet-port of Linksys, all computers get the correct IP addresses via a wireless cable. What is wrong, is at - it a setting I have not seen? Some setting that I can use Internet-port and have other 4 free ports for other devices and other devices can get dynamic IP from my ISP.

Ignore the Scrooge. What he wrote has nothing to do with your problem.

Unlike the Buffalo WHR the Linksys doesn't have a configuration option or switch to alternate between the 'bridge' and the router mode. The Linksys always uses the internet port on a different interface of the numbered ports. You can't fill.

For example, if you want to 'bridge' with the Linksys is the configuration you already have when wiring from the outlet ports numbered, i.e. do not use the internet port. You will have to "give up" the internet port then. If you need more wired ports, you must connect a switch to the router.

    Thank you!

    Hello
     
    We recommend that you install the router (see its manual) and the pilot of NIC once more and check the difference. In the first post, you mentioned that you decompressed or extracted files. Once the files are extracted, you will be asked to install the driver. However if you do not receive any prompts for the driver, then you will need to locate the destination folder where the files are checked to find the configuration file.

    Open the destination folder where the files are extracted and run the Setup file to complete the installation.
     
    To download and install the latest network card driver, visit the site Web of the manufacturer of the device or system.
     
     
    I hope this helps.

  • How to change (dynamic) IP address in Windows 7 or Vista?

    Had the same problem on Vista, upgrade to Win7 and the question remains.

    I have a dynamic IP address from ISP, but it remains as if it was static, what allows to work in XP and previous versions of Windows no longer works in Vista or 7. I talked to my ISP (3 times, 3 different Tech), they said that my IP is dynamic and confirmed he is not defined by them as static. They charge more for a static IP, it would just give me this free 'upgrade'. They had "no idea" how to force/change a new IP address in Vista or 7.

    Please! Don't bother suggesting to run ipconfig/flushdns / release / renew at the prompt to as suggested by each internet search, this DOES NOT WORK. This was done with the prompt window of cmd under "Run As Administrator".

    Please! Read everything I've done here before suggesting something, I have tried or have tested and proven to work/not work.

    Here are other things that I've tried, WHO ALSO DO NOT WORK:

    (NOTE: no router is used, directly connected, CAT5, NIC the modem PC broadband)
    -Modem unplugged 72 hours left. No change
    -A the ISP send me a new modem. No change
    -Uninstalled NIC. No change
    -Change IP4 settings to "Obtain automatically" to a forced IP made-up, rebooted, then changed back to auto. No change

    So, with all this 'old school' stuff already tried and failed, that changed in Vista and 7 which seems to keep the same dynamic IP static? When Windows is put in cache or store this information, so I can delete it, none of the traditional methods of work. I absolutely can't stand having a static IP address on my computer at home.

    If you search on the internet this exact question you will find what I have, everyone is suggesting to the methods of work time I tried already above, but people using Vista or 7 are several times to find it no longer works.

    Here is some information, which confirms the IP address is not stored in my modem, or assigned to the MAC address of my NIC...

    If I start this same PC with a LINUX Live CD, type using the same MAC address and the NIC, he gets another IP address whenever it restarts. The question clearly has nothing to do with my ISP, modem or PC in general.

    If I get hot swap my modem to another PC, the other PC Gets a fresh (different) IP address. If this another PC using XP I can force the ipconfig/release / renew to change its IP address.

    If the other PC running Vista, the IP address remains static, no matter what I try, unless the hard drive is wiped and Vista is re-installed, then he gets a new IP on the PC with the pure install, but it can not be changed after what is happening.

    If clear, Windows Vista and Windows 7 have somewhere IP configuration information and re-use of this information when it detects that you are using the same internet provider, WHERE is it stored so I can delete it?

    I thank you much if you have a working solution and actually know the answer, instead of reading everything that can already be found by a search engine and repost info which is no longer valid, as all the world on the internet is doing in trying to answer this question.

    I think I found a solution. It has worked for me so I guess it could work for you.

    1. find your IP address for example to go to a site such as http://www.whatismyip.com/ it will show you your IP address.
    2 copy.
    3. open network & sharing Center
    4. open the network properties you what your IP to change. In my case, it's an EVDO modem.
    5. on the network tab, double-click TCP/IPv4, which will open a window to change the IP and DNS IP address.
    6. in this window click on "use following IP address" and paste this IP address you copied in step 2.
    7 change the last digit of the IP address to any value above him for example if its 192.168.23.123 change the last digit to something like 122 so that the IP address becomes 192.168.23.122.
    8. click on OK until that close all windows.
    9 disconnect from this network.
    10 reconnect to this network and if it goes as planned the ISP should force a dynamic IP address. Check http://www.whatismyip.com/ if it has changed. If you can not browse, go to step 6, and then select "Obtain an IP address automatically" and then disconnect-> reconnect to the network.
    It worked for me so I don't know if it will work for you. Your comments will be greatly appreciated.
  • Windows 7 - cannot get the IP address of the DHCP Linux server

    I have several desktop computers and portable computers that have the Windows 7 operating system.  Some have Windows 7 Starter, Windows 7 Home and Windows 7 Professional.

    My network is configured like this:

    Desktop computers > switch > DHCP Linux server > router > Internet

    Laptops > wireless bridge > DHCP Linux server > router > Internet

    Windows 7 Professional does not appear to have a problem with my set up.  It can enter an address IPv4 automatically, wired or wireless.

    Windows 7 Starter and Home cannot obtain address IPv4 correctly, wired or wireless.  If I give the static addresses of these computers, they can access the internet.  If I let them as dynamic, they will constantly try to connect and try to Identifingtwork.

    I want to get my Windows 7 start and home computers to enter dynamic IPv4 addresses of my Linux DHCP server.  Note, I have never had any problem with Windows XP Home or Pro.

  • "Error: failed to get the IP address of the destination virtual machine running the converter to assistance server." with a static IP address

    Hi all

    I'm trying to p2v linux 6.4. It fails with the following message is displayed:

    Error: Cannot get the IP address of the virtual destination machine running the converter assistance server.

    I have seen discussions on this message, but they all refer to dynamic IP address, taken from DHCP, as in my case, I use static IP address.

    In the meantime the p2v (which then breaks down...) I open console support machine and saw a message:


    eth0 is not a recognized interface.

    Can someone tell me what is happening?

    Hello

    I assume you are using converter 5.5. There is a new feature that allows the selection of the network card. However, it works well in the case of Linux P2V. If you have changed the type of adapter, use 'e1000' or 'auto' and try again.

    You can go to www.xbox.com and login to your account then go to payment options manage then that should show your credit card information, then click on delete and who must take care of your card being removed. If for any reason, you are having disconnected you can call support and they can remove it for you. You can also check your local wages as well, and if you had saved your console, support will be your serial number on the registration and then you can get your Xbox if you find at a pawn shop.
