WRT160Nv2 - drops of LAN connection

I just bought and installed a WRT160N.  Connection Wi - Fi works very well.

Wired also OK but it falls without error in the logs: unable to connect to the URL but connection status is "connected."

IP / release renew seems to fix the problem but it's not sustainable in the long term as it happens several times a day.

Anyone have any ideas?

There is a known problem with intermittent connectivity and firmware to build 11 for the WRT160N V2. 11 is the current firmware on the Linksys site. Check if you have 11 build if your router is a V2.
Downgraded to build 8 fits usually correct these deficiencies, but Linksys told several people that they do not have firmware version 8 to give end users.

It's ONLY for the WRT160N V2 router. This firmware will not work on WRT160N V1.

  • Satellite Pro C850 - strange problem with LAN connection

    Hello world

    I just signed up on this forum because I hope you guys can help me with a really strange problem.

    I recently bought a Satellite Pro C850-1MX
    It came with Win8, but given that I don't really like Win8, I bought an additional Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) license and installed on the laptop.

    The problem I describe, also arrived on 8 to win, which makes it even more strange.

    As soon as I connect a cable to the RJ-45 port, Windows tells me, that the LAN connection is not connected.
    As soon as I unplug the cable, Windows starts looking for a network and actually found one!

    So, the only way to connect to my LAN cable is... I have activate the LAN connection, wait that it detects a network (without the cable connected!) and meanwhile to connect the cable to the network port.
    Now... If I disconnect the cable once again, Windows still shows its connected.

    I must say, that I am a Director of professional network for more than 10 years now, so I should know my systems, but this never happened to me before. Event log shows nothing, re-installing drivers did nothing either. IM quite confused here and I hope you guys can help me.

    Thanks for reading, and let me know if you need any additional info!

    Greetings from the Germany,
    Sandro

    Hello Sandro,

    To be honest I confused m.

    I would try to start talking about the drivers installed, since you changed the system for Win 7.
    All the network devices, such as card WLan and LAN card are properly recognized in Device Manager?

    As I m not wrong not the laptop was equipped with a network card Realtek-8111F (1000BASE-T/100Base-TX/10Base-T) and WLan RTL8723AE Realtek b/g/n card.
    If both should appear in the device properly Manager if you have installed the drivers correctly.

    2nd question:
    You said:
    > As soon as I unplug the cable, Windows starts looking for a network and actually found one!
    Are you sure that you speak of LAN and WLAN?
    For me it made no further since. If the network cable is unplugged, the notebook would connect to the WLan where WiFi is enabled.

  • How to make the computer to look for SBRIO on a LAN connection when wireless connections LAN and are active

    Hello

    I plugged my laptop to a SBRIO using a cable, I also did the same mask subnet the SBRIO and my wireless connection for laptop is also active. I run an application to transfer files from the network to the SBRIO. I was able to download the files from the network using the wireless, but when I try to transfer the files from the laptop to the SBRIO the application attempts to use the wireless instead of the connection to the local network. Is there anyway that I can apply to use the LAN connection instead of wireless?

    Thank you

    Mouda.

    You must manually configure the settings for the SBRIO and map NETWORK cable on the PC. They must be presented on the same subnet. Using the crossover cable, you can configure your PC to use an address like 192.168.0.10 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. Configure the SBRIO to use an address as 192.168.0.11 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. The PC uses the network connection by default for all addresses that do not match the specific subnet on teaching secondary (cable in your case) NIC

    Help, please.

    Here is how I fixed it:

    Click on "Change adapter settings" in the left pane.

    Right click on your map. Select "Properties".

    There will be a box titled "this connection uses the following items."

    Uncheck anything that looks like it was installed by a third party (AVG, Avast, ZoneAlarm). In my case, the culprit was 'HTC NDIS Protocol Driver", who was installed by the software of my phone (HTC). Because it's not obvious what to uncheck, here is what I currently have checked in my system of work which should not cause a problem:

    KEEP THESE CHECKED:

    Client for Microsoft networks
    QoS Packet Scheduler
    File and Printer Sharing
    IP v6
    Internet Protocol v4
    Driver Link-Layer Topology Discovery map IO
    Link-Layer Topology Discovery recall

    Uncheck everything else.

    Go to network and sharing, disable and re-enable the adapter.

  • LAN Connection stopped working on my computer running WIN XP MEDIA CENTER

    My LAN connection stopped working on my WIN XP MEDIA CENTER-based computer. I have access to the internet with optimum online. I have a router connected to my cable modem (US Robotics) wireless and desktop with the functioning of the wired connection stopped. My wireless connection on my laptop works very well on the same network. I first stop the modem, router, computer and re started at all. Modem Router 1 2nd, then on computer. Usually works, but not this time. Contacted optimum online and went through some procedures to correct the problem. Open cmd prompt, ping tried only to get 3 of any answers and 1 reply. Tried ipconfg / renew, did not work.  Firewall had closed during all of this. Service representative from optimum online said that he could see my modem was working but something like a firewall was blocking my computer access. Tried ipconfig/all and gave him the ip address he asked which showed, 169.254.80.196, he said that address will not work and we continued trying to renew the ip address, and we could achieve.

    Now I mention here that this problem occurred when I had a power surge while I was online. I rebooted and this is the problem that I was. I asked the rep optimal online what else could be the cause as a virus or damaged surge my LAN or OS and he said for me to try to get in touch with microsoft and perhapse they could help me more. I hope someone has an answer for me.

    Please... Help!

    Thank you

    Don Soutar

    Watch 169.254.x.x IP address only:

    • The connection to the LAN is configured to obtain an IP address automatically, and:
    • He cannot communicate with your router to get the address.

    The surge may have damaged the computer's Ethernet card.  If so, replacing it with a new adapter will fix the problem.

  • E4200 Lan LAN connection - how to access the router

    Just bought the E4200 (for a home network) and have implemented as a Lan - Lan connection success. My Siemens Spreadstream DSL modem 6520 provided by Bell Aliant (is a wireless router / and is used as DHCP).  On the E4200 as per instruction changed the IP of E4200 address to 192.168.1.2, turned off the DHCP and NAT set to disabled. The E4200 is linked directly from the SpeedStream ethernet port to ports numbered on E4200 (not the internet port). The SpreedStream also feeds a Linksys switch with 16 ports (SD216).  When I connect a laptop through the new E4200 wirelesss network, I am able to see the rest of my network fine.

    When I connect a PC with the CISCO software installed to one of the ports E4200 software cannot access router of the E4200. I type 198.168.1.2 as a web address, but cannot connect. My question is, after all, the background information is... How can I access my new router E4200 to make changes with my lan - lan configuration. I want to be able to add an external drive USD to USB port of the E4200 years set up the account of wireless of comments.

    Kind regards

    Change the address LAN IP of the E4200 to 192.168.2.2. Except, however, if 192.168.2.2 is part of the Siemens server DHCP address pool. Check which addresses IP Siemens allows to assign by using DHCP. The E4200 address must not be included.

    If you have the latest firmware installed your E4200 takes the bridge mode. In bridge mode, you can use the E4200 as access point connecting with the internet port for your Siemens. This way you can also use network comments and other features that will not or do not fully work with the configuration that you have right now...

  • Wi-fi/lan connection only works on some devices

    Hello... I have problem with wi-fi/lan connection. I work in a school with about 100 children. The problem is that some computers/phones/laptops can connect normally to a connection wi-fi/lan but some cant. The internet icon actually shows normal connection, but you cannot browse the internet. When this happen the only thing I can do to help temporarily change the mac address of the device with software changing Mac and which usually resolves it. So maybe the problem is that too many devices are connected at the same time or mac addreses interfere with each other or something. I have tried almost everytnig, reseting routers, change the settings of the router, changing channels, etc. of mac filtering... It was working fine before. Maybe you can help. P.S. Sorry for my bad English :)

  • Satellite L650/1MC - WiFi and LAN connection keep dropping out

    In the last two weeks, that my wifi connection dropped regularly - only a reboot solves the problem. Because it became so frequent (and boring) I returned with an ethernet cable, which worked OK for a few days, but tthat hen started making the same thing: no internet connection.

    I must emphasize that my other active wifi (android and android phone Tablet) kit continue to connect to internet via wifi etc, even when the connection of the laptop has fallen. This leads me to suspect that the problem is mobile partner no router etc. relates. The laptop is rarely used on battery, so I do not have the power as a problem management.

    I have a Satellite L650/1MC running W7 64-bit. I made no changes to my system recently which may give rise to this problem - everything works perfectly until a few weeks before.

    I checked for updated firmware updated on my router in the case where it is the question - it's not.

    Any suggestions to fix this annoying would be welcome!

    > I checked for updated firmware updated on my router in the case where it is the question - it's not.

    Have you tried to reboot the router?
    Since the two connections (LAN and WLan) stops falling, I think that the router is the problem.
    OK, two other android devices seems to work properly but the fact is that router shares automatically and possibly IP addresses, the IP address cannot be assigned correctly.

    However, you can check the WLan and LAN TCP/IP protocol settings.
    Uninstall the TCP/IP v6 and use only the v4 TCP/IP for LAN and WLan.

    Also ensure that your security programs (firewall & anti-virus software) don't affect the internet connection.

  • L755 satellite internet connection drops but stilll connected to the network

    Hello

    I hope one of you can help me. I have a laptop 13 q Satellite L755 nice for a year and a half.

    My problem is that I surf the net and suddenly my internet connection drops down. On Firefox or IE, I have a message with a triangular signal yellow saying: "your connection has be revived."
    I'm still waiting on my network but I can't access the internet.

    The strangness, is that my family other PC or laptop have no problem on the connection.
    This happens on the wifi and cable. At home or other places of connection.
    In France and the United States. So my conclusion is that there is a problem with my laptop.

    I looked around some forums. It seems that some have a problem with IPv6.
    I have disabled the option to use IPv6 on my laptop, but I still have the problem.

    Another comment: I play the Kingdom of the fortress online.
    Sometimes I disconnect from this game but I can still surf the internet for a few minutes before undergoing a total disconnection.

    Looking forward for your help.

    As this happens using WLan and LAN its really hard to say why your connection is interrupted.
    Have you tested the internet connection with fresh preinstalled system?
    I mean it is possible that some software / updates received or installed in the past it would affect.
