WRT54G2 - no internet connection

I have just replaced my WRT54G with a WRT54G2 router.  I used the same settings that were on my WRT54G.  Everything works fine as long as I have the blue cable plugged into my computer and the other end into Port 1 of the router.  As soon as I disconnect the blue wire from my computer, I lose my internet connection.  My computer connects to the router with no problems, I just can't connect to the internet.

I checked and double checked all the settings on my computer (in network connections) and the configuration of the router (192.168.1.1) page and they are identical.  My settings worked fine on the previous router, but for some reason, I am unable to connect to wireless internet with the new router using the previous settings.

Any ideas?

Yes, you are right, reset the router and re-configuration it makes a big difference...

  • WRT54G2 slows down the internet connection

    Hello.

    Somehow, my WRT54G2 router slows down my internet connection. My PC is connected by cable and I cannot watch youtube videos and gave to wait fo 20 seconds for gmail to load up. If I connect the PC to the modem directly then everything works fine. Reset to the default router configuration solves the problem for a few weeks, but this solution is quite annoying. Is there another way to solve this problem once and for all?

    Thnx.

    In the latest version of firmware notes, it is written:

    -updated with the patch to solve the problems of ping

    I'll try to update my routers firmware now, if this will fix my problem, I probably won't respond to this thread more.

  • No internet connection found WRT54G2

    I have modem BEFCMU10 and replaced my wired router (BEFSR41) with WRT54G2 wireless router.  I basically took all the connections between the wired router and put exactly the same thing in the wireless router and it does not find the internet connection.  I use Comcast cable if it has something to do with it.  So I put the wired router on and it works fine.  One thing... Photo and instructions says to use the BLUE cable to connect the computer to the router.  With the wired router, we used the BLUE cable to connect the modem to the router.  Right now, just trying to implement both our PC like wired and use the wireless for my Smartphone.  I buy adapters wireless at a later date for the PC.

    Thanks for any help you can provide.  It is much appreciated.

    Try this:

    1. check if you can get online directly connected to your cable modem.

    2. press and hold the reset of the router for 30 sec.

    3. cut OFF the power to your Modem and router.

    4. connect the Modem to the internet port on the linksys router then connect your computer to one of the numbered ports of the linksys router.

    5 turn on the power to your modem and wait 15 sec and then turn on your linksys router.

    6. check the LED - power/WLAN/INTERNET/ETHERNET PORT router

    7. check if you can get online wired to the router

    8. If it is online. Access the Setup page of the router by going to the 192.168.1.1 address using your browser then go to the submenu and choos MAC address Clone set it to activate and then press the CLONE button.

    9. check the State and get the IP Internet address. If you have an IP Internet check address so you can get online. Otherwise, try to renew IP. Still no Internet IP, contact Technical Support for Linksys

  • WRT54G2 no Internet after initial connecitons...

    I have an active Internet connection. I decided to move from a WRT54GS to a WRT54G2 wireless router.  Once you plug the G2 to the ethernet connection and a cable of the G2 for a computer shouldn't you have access to the internet?  I get no Internet access after doing this.  I tried to do an installation using the web configuration (which I did successfully with my old WRT54GS) but I still don't get internet access.  I copied all my settings form the GS and re-made those defining with the G2 and I get nothing.  I have reset the G2 and tried again and I am still getting no Internet after making initial connections before entering the web installer.   What could be the problem?  At my last effort, I managed to successfully do an upgrade of the firmware on the WRT54G2.

    P.S. I've switched back to my old WRT54GS and everything goes well with this router.

    This is resloved.  I did turn off all appliances, turn on the cable modem, router and PC in that order.  I now set up the router using the web configuration as I wanted.  So far, everything works fine.

  • WRT54G - Internet connectivity failure - everything seems to work, but not online

    I have a WRT54G V8 router, who is 18 months old. Its used by 3 laptops to connect to the Internet (Wi - Fi all). All 3 laptops unable to connect all of a sudden. Steps are taken to solve the problems, still no luck. Please suggest if something else can be done.

    1. first test was to remove the router and connect a computer directly to the modem via a LAN comcast cable. Internet is available

    2. I have hard reset the router and configured again. No luck

    3. check the connectivity to the Internet through ports 1 to 4, no luck

    4. I can see the available signal and connect to the network, but not internet connection. I see the cell as shown (all dynamic) IP address obtaining

    5. I upgraded the firmaware to 8.0.6 version and and not set up once again, no luck (same as step 3 & 4)

    6. removed the WEP security, does not

    7 soft reset on the router (via the admin page reset to factory settings), no luck

    LED status

    Power - on and yellow

    Cisco - on

    WAN - SUITE

    Internet - ON and flashing

    Lights of port - when a laptop is CONNECTED

    I see the excellent signal strength and all laptops can connect to the network, but cannot go online. Google chrome shows a message hosting "solve" until timeout. Laptops show a 192.168.1.XX IP address. 4 ports are also not connect to Internet (mobile one GETS IP address via the ports as well)

    I have no other options left. I've seen a similar thread here (http://forums.linksys.com/linksys/board/message?board.id=Wireless_Routers&message.id=2288), but no response. Please suggest what to do next.

    Okey, I finally found the problem. His Modem.

    Router is not able to get the IP address of the modem if the modem is started first and then I plug the internet cable to the router. But if I keep the router and modem connected and then reset the modem while keeping the router powered on, the router receives an IP address.

    And in both cases, if I connect the laptop with the modem directly, computer laptop can connect to the Internet.

    I bought a new router (WRT54G2) thinks that the problem is with the router, and I can reproduce the same behavior with both routers constantly.

    Make sure you modem is Motorola surf.

  • Internet connection no longer works unless I have disconnect and reconnect the wifi regularly

    I find that after a time random, maybe twenty minutes a half an hour or so, my internet connection breaks down and it can only be fixed by disconnecting and reconnecting to my wifi network.

    It is a problem on my iMac of retina 2014 running El Capitan and 2011 MacBook Air my wife running Mountain Lion (but not on my MacBook Air of 2011 which takes place in Yosemite).

    It does not seem to be triggered by almost anything, but it's maddening to have to do all the time. It's a router NetGear btw, less than a year.

    If anyone has a solution I'd love to hear it!

    Greetings, peederjigson!

    Welcome to the communities of Apple Support! It seems you have some problems to stay connected to the Wi - Fi on some of your devices. This is not how it is supposed to work so I'll be happy to help you.

    The potential of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth interference sources - because this is not the case with all your devices, it could be other things blocking the signal. Here are a few potential sources.

    Recommended settings for the WiFi routers and access points - because your router is "-ish" make sure that the settings are correct.

  • How to switch to safari 9.1 without internet connection

    I've recently upgraded to El Capitan on my 2009 mac. Fine, except that now, I find my version of safari (6.6) is not compatible with El Capitan and I have no internet connection. How to switch to safari 9.1 without being able to download it? Can I get a disk with on or something?

    Safari is upgraded when you upgrade your system. There is no installer for stand-alone for Safari. If you run El Capitan your Safari should be version 9.1.2. Otherwise apply the OS X Combo Update 10.11.6.

    The Combo update is a complete installation, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update, so you have to overwrite all files are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have previously applied. All your data and settings must be kept, but that said, you should always have a backup.

  • Internet connection is unstable

    Hello
    For a week now, my internet connection Firefox has been unstable. Usually, after you open a new tab, I need to click the 'Try' again on the 'server not found' - several times (5-10) to finally create a connection to the page.

    I use Firefox on Win XP Pro SP3 39.0. Firewall settings look ok. Protection of navigation and the virus is F-Secure (to date).
    Unfortunately the problem seems not to have an impact on Firefox only (Chrome access to electronic mail and Outlook are similarly unstable).

    I use a shared via a Windowsphone wifi connection and can connect with the browser of the phone without problem (so I don't think that the problem is associated with ISP).

    I did a scan complete antivirus without reported problems.

    Any advice would be welcome. Thank you!

    It seemed to me a solution by changing the definitions of DNS server. I unchecked obtain DNS server addresses automatically and specified in quinquonce and the preferred DNS server addresses (used 8 8 8 8 8 8 4 4 respectively).

  • How to prevent the download of the images (when the internet connection is bad)

    In ancient times, it was possible to download only the text, no images, in order to speed up downloading of Web pages. Now I can't find the 'switch' to do this. My problem is that sometimes - when I'm on the (German) campaign - internet connection is so bad that the download takes a long time or fails completely.
    I use firefox with ubuntu 39.0...

    This option is no longer available in the standard options, but it still exists in the advanced configuration. 'Text only' value, enter "subject: config" in the URL bar, accept the warning, search for "permissions.default.image" and change the value of 1 (default) 2. To restore the display of images, even to change the value from 2 to 1.
