WRT54GL wired connection drops

I've got a WRT54GL Wireless G from Linksys. I do not currently use wireless. (I've disabled.) It worked fine when I got it, but now removes several times a day. The frequency of drops has increased during the last two weeks. A manual reboot of the WRT54GL resets the connection. (The connection is lost too whenever the computer is restarted and it also forces me to restart the WRT54GL)

To initially get a connection, I had to follow the routers cascading tutorial that requires the internet to be put at the first port and way wired for access from the second computer. (Because I'm using a combination modem/router device, connect the cable to the modem/router directly on the internet/ADSL port on the WRT54GL did not.)

I tried to access Google directly by IP (74.125.159.106) and this does not work, even if I can't actually search. (I deleted the browser cache before checking this.) The lights on the modem/router and the WRT54GL are turned on, then the two seem to work fine. I can also access the web interface for the WRT54GL. (I don't think I can access the web interface of the router/modem, but I need to confirm that the next time the connection drops).

For this reason, I don't know if it's really drop the connection, or if I'm just unable to what location. What I read, it can be linked to a dns issue, but I don't know much about these things.

Thanks for any help

Maybe you've found the 192.168.1.x ip address between your modem and that's why you get no internet when you connect the modem to the router on the internet port.

Your router does not work as a router here... You connect the modem to the router to the Ethernet port, it works as a switch...

I would suggest that allowing you to convert the modem in Bridge mode and then connect the modem to the router on the internet and computer port to the router to the ethernet port... Now open the linksys configuration page by typing 192.168.1.1 in the address bar and configure the router with PPPoE settings.

The second is option... Connect the modem to the router on the internet and computer port to the router to the ethernet port... Now open the linksys configuration page by typing 192.168.1.1 in the address bar. Now, change the ip address of the router linksys 192.168.2.1 and save settings... Network power cycle and it should.

Check out this link.

If you have found the intermittent connection to the router then, reduce the MTU to 1350 and cycle power to the router.

  • Satellite L300 PSLBGE network connection drops randomly times

    Hey,.

    I had this problem with my laptop because I bought 1.5 years ago.
    Now I launch Windows 7 x 64 with the latest bios (version 2.20 - WIN; day 25/02/10), chipset and wireless (the card is a: Realtek Wireless LAN Adapter 8187 B; driver version: 62.1182.0331.2010) drivers.

    The problem is that my network connection drop at random times.
    This produces both with my wireless lan card and it comes up with a variety of routers (at work and at home I use a linksys wrt54gl, but I tried it on all the other routers with the same result).

    I don't think it's a hardware failure, since the network seems to work very well under Linux (I tried Ubuntu 10). Also some time I took it for warranty service and they said that the material is fine, but I should "not use many programs at the same time and use Windowx XP.

    I understand the different devices (card WiFi, network card, webcam, etc.) inside the laptop are connected to some kind of usb hub. My guess is that it is something wrong with this "hub", given that the webcam works as defective.

    Thank you

    > From what I understand the different devices (card WiFi, network card, webcam, etc.) inside the laptop are connected to some kind of usb hub. My guess is that it is something wrong with this "hub", given that the webcam works as defective.

    No, the card WLan and LAN card are not connected to the USB just the webcam interfaces so it cannot be any USB issue.

    I think it might be a problem of Windows since Linux is OK

    I think you should check the power management settings in Windows 7 and card Wlan /LAN. This can be done in the Manager of devices-> WLan / LAN card-> Advanced tab properties.

    I also recommend upgrading from win 7 to the last installation of State all updates and patches

  • Compaq Presario 5400US - need network drivers for XP Home Edition. Wired connection.

    It woun't connect to internet using a good modem and cable (other PC connect successfully using this same equipment). When I type IPCONFIG, I get 2 results, one for Local Area Connection2 for LAC3. Two of them have 169.254.xxx.xxx IP addresses. Both Suffixes DNS blank and empty default gateways.

    When I go into network connections, the LAC2 says "Limited or no connectivity", but it lists a Linksys LNE 100TX Fast Ethernet Adapter. Linksys? I don't have any Linksys product. LAC3 says 'Connected' with the help of a WAN network driver. However, in the Notification area network connections has the same yellow triangle as LAC2. When I right click the icon in the Notification area and select "Repair" I always get the following ".." following action cannot be completed: renewing your IP address.

    If I right click LAC3 (the one that says 'Connected'), click Properties, click TCP. IP and select Properties, it is set to get an IP address and an address of DNS server automatically. It is also the same for LAC2.

    Client DHCP, DNS Client and call the CPP are started.

    I tried ipconfig/release, ipconfig/registerdns, ipconfig/flushdns, netsh winsock reset. When I run it ipconfig / renew I get messages (after he is sitting there for 2 minutes)
    An error occurred during renewal of the Local 2 network connection interface: unable to contact your DHCP server. Request timed out...
    An error occurred during renewal of the Local 2 network connection interface: unable to contact your DHCP server. Request timed out...

    A run chkdsk /r have run the command netsh int ip reset reset.log.

    So, I went 2 network cards, restarted in the device and removed Manager and let Windows reinstall. Windows creates a new connection to the Local network (LAC4, 2 and 3 are gone). It only reads limited connectivity or none and is using Linksys LNE 100TX Fast Ethernet Adapter, like the previous LAC2. The previous LAC3, who uses the network never got WAN driver reinstalled. I don't understand.

    Since an adapter Linksys on a wired connection seemed odd I have tried to find what should be the correct network driver.

    I google "Compaq Presario 5400US" "driver ethernet" OR "network driver" and was taken to a page of drivers HP, which I think makes sense since HP now owns Compaq
    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/s...UCT=93284#n430
    This page has nothing listed for network or chipset cards.  This, of course, has no meaning for me.

    Can anyone help?

    Select this version from the drop-down list on the link that I posted above.

    Depending on the size of file, it does not resemble an auto install file. Accept the agreement and unzip the file into a folder.

    So, download it to a folder and go to Device Manager.

    Click the network card in need of drivers, and then select manual search for drivers. Navigate to the folder where you extracted the drivers and the driver should install.

  • Static IP address for printer with a wired connection

    My printer (HP7210) is wired connected to my WRT54GL router. 2 computers also have a wired connection, my laptop is connected wireless. All of these computers use the connected printer. 2 computers can only use a static IP address for the printer. How can I set a static IP in my router?

    I don't think that the WRT54GL supports static IP with the stock Linksys firmware.

    The solution is to assign the static IP address to the printer. Most of the printers on network supports the definition of a static IP address manually. The key is to set the static IP address on the printer out of the range the WRT54GL uses for its DHCP server. Sign in to the administration page of your router and see what addresses the range of IP addresses he uses to hand over the IP address of the client. Usually, Linksys likes to start xxx.xxx.xxx.100 and have leases of 50 to 100 a cancelled so to avoid conflict, you can use any IP in the range of xxx.xxx.xxx.002 through xxx.xxx.xxx.099, or through xxx.xxx.xxx.254 xxx.xxx.xxx.201. After configuring the IP static on the printer, you may need to reconfigure all the print drivers that are already installed on client computers so that they can connect to the new static IP address to the printer.

    See the user guide page 140 to learn how to manually change the IP of the HP 7210 printer settings.

    For example try using the next/IP subnet mask if your router is configured to use 192.168.1.100 to its DHCP server setting:

    Use the IP address of: 192.168.1.202

    Use the subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

    Use the gateway: 192.168.1.1

    To change the IP of the control panel settings

    1. press Setup.

    2. press 8and then press 3.

    This selects the Network Configuration , and then IP settingsmenu.

    3. press on until Manual appears, then press OK.

    4. change the IP address, and then press OK.

    5. change the subnet maskand then press OK.

    6. change the default gatewayand then press OK.

    Note: The things I kept my eye on are Symantec Antivirus; Symantec Firewall; Internet Explorer, but LAN speed is confusing.

  • 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.

    Hi all!

    4 months I suffer from this problem.

    My internet connection drops every 15 minutes and takes about 2-3 minutes to reconnect.

    In the meantime the wifi connection still works and strong (5 bars).

    I tried all methods to resolve this problem, dns flush, back, ip address, update driver... I have even to connect my laptop to a dongle wireless usb to see if it's a hardware problem, but same result. I tried to connect to another wifi network but also the problem remains.

    Strangely when I connect my computer to my phone internet of the data over wifi it works perfectly.

    My phone, iPad are connected to the wifi in my house without any problem.

    Any idea? Thank you very much in advance for your help.

  • Wireless network connection drops on my Tecra A4

    Hello
    When I upload a file (or just only connected to the web), the connection drops about 30 seconds for a few seconds. I tried many things, like change the channel, change security settings (wpa/wep), tried other places in the House, but if I sit only one metre from the router, I have the same problem.
    The strange thing is the computer which is directly connected by cable to the router shows no problem at all...

    See also http://www.sappa.nl/dumeter.jpg for an illustration of the problem.

    I read about a possible solution (http://arstechnica.com/news/posts/1080251780.html), by closing the windows net zero service and instead of this service to use a different program to search for and connect to your network (configfree?)

    Greetings!

    Hello

    It's not easy to give you a proper answer.
    If your device works with the Atheros WLan card, you must use the Atheros Client Utility to configure WLan settings and the option to use Windows to configure my wireless in the wireless network properties must be disabled.
    In addition, please check from Toshiba Web site for the new Wlan driver. Maybe the new update could solve the problem.

    Good bye

  • Wired connection without love at first sight?

    I need to update the software for my router at home. (The router were made by Netgear).

    At the beginning of the instructions, it says this: "to avoid the problem of disconnection during the process of the firmware download wireless, NETGEAR recommends this firmware update be performed on a computer with wired connection.

    I don't know how to connect my Macbook Air to the modem with a cable, since it seems that there is no port for this.

    It seems that I might be able to buy a "Thunderbolt" adapter for $29, but that seems like a piece of expensive hardware because I need only to update this software. For $29, I could virtually buy a new router.

    Two questions:

    1. is there a cheaper way to connect my Macbook Air to the internet with a cable?

    2. can I download updated the firmware of the Netgear via the normal WiFi connection, or he'll just permanently disconnect my laptop on my home WiFi network?

    Thank you for any advice you can give me.

    (1) No, you need to this thunderbolt adapter and an ethernet cable.

    (2) what they give is the perfect Board as ethernet is more reliable than wifi. But I am not agree.  Maybe I have will burn someday, but chances are with me.  99% + chance you can do wireless.  You are offline but can reconnect automatically in most cases and may have to do a manual connect after installs the firmware.

  • Internet connection drops

    The OS is El Capitan 10.11.3 on both my MacBook Mid 2010 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR & iMac 21.7 end 2012 2.9 GHz Intel Core i5 8 BG 1600 MHz DDR3, connection to the internet with the 5th generation Airport Extreme. The internet connection drops without model except that diagnosis shows a cable ethernet disconnected between the Airport Extreme and the ISP modem. I can install an older Airport Extreme I replaced about 4 years ago because there was no support for WPA security with the same Ethernet cable and the connection does not fall. I can also plug the MacBook with the power cord and connect via Ethernet. Is it possible that the Ethernet WAN port for the modem to ISP is down? The reason why I ask is that I install the older airport with the same ethernet cable. (I have other cat5 cables, but none of them are cross-cable as the cable provider ISP) I don't want to leave the network upward with the old airport because I have no security.  I price a new Airport Extreme and a cable crossed, but I'd feel better spending the money if I can be pretty sure that the 5th generation extreme is a failure. Anyone have any ideas?

    Some modems are more problematic that others... you must tell us the details.

    This modem you have, make and model please?

    You don't show us the summary for the AE, but if you run 7.6.4 firmware, it is less stable with some modems than previous 7.6.1 (this is why the old AE does not fall).

    Please firmware downgrade to the AE to 7.6.1. For this, hold down the option key while clicking on the version number of the existing firmware. A list... Select 7.6.1 (DO NOT USE 7.6.3. it is poor..).

    The latest version of AC AE is even worse... so I recommend you to buy a different brand of router... you can continue to use EI as WAP, as long as you take on their track, it should work ok.

  • Satellite T110-11U: WLan connection dropped and very slow performance

    Hi people,

    I use a Satellite T110-11U running windows 7 Home premium.

    After having initially was very satisfied with its use, it now becomes more and more frustrating to use with wifi, with connections dropped and very slow performance.

    I have updated the BIOS and think I have updated all drivers wirelss, but could be the problem. It seems that wireless, software of management is at fault because the networks are detected, but not clinging.

    Any suggestion or tips to try will help save my sanity!

    Thanks for your help.

    > have updated the BIOS and think I have updated all drivers wirelss, but could be the problem.
    If you need to make sure that you use the latest WLan driver.
    The driver can be downloaded here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

    The laptop uses the Realtek RTL8191SE of WLan card.
    Please also reset the settings of the Wlan router. I had a lot of problems with my WLan and after the reset of the router, performance problems disappeared.

    I just bought the Sony BDP-S370 and I tried to connect using a wired connection. I put my settings in and nothing I also did with 'AUTO' settings and nothing. I called Sony and they could not help I called comcast and none help so am hoping that some on hear can help.

    Hello 951253, the user
    Congratulations on the purchase of your new Blu Ray player. Apologies, you experience network problems. Auto is fine for Setup, but when you need solving problems, you must look at all the parties involved. Check first is the layers of the devices.

    Comcast Modem > router > wired connection to the player.
    or
    Comcast Modem/Router > wired connection to the player

    If you can connect directly to the modem try this first
    (not all modems will allow this)
    Once you have determined which device is blocking access, check your IP address.

    You can find the network settings of > networking > Internet status > and if your ip address is valid as 192.168.x.xx then the router is good, but no communication to the Modem.

    If you have an IP address under network settings of 169.xx.xx.xx then this is a universal car fake address created with no connectivity. and it could be your cable or other issues.

    Sorry to provide general answers but with network troubleshooting, unless it is a specific Question, its best to work with us on-line.

  • Apple Airprint for HP Officejet 6500 has more via a wired connection to the router

    Hello

    So I did a considerable amount of research in this through the internet and this forum and I still struggle to find a satisfactory solution.

    I have a HP Officejet 6500 a more connected by ethernet to my BT Homehub 3.

    It is I understand that even if there is a wired connection, as long as my iOS device (iPad 2 or iPhone 5) is connected to the same router, I should still be able to see this Officejet thanks to ease of airprint.

    Unfortunately, this is not the case. I get the message "No Airprint Printers Found" on both devices. The only way I managed to get my Mac Pro (Mavericks) to connect has been add to mannualy by using the IP address of the printer.

    Can anyone provide guidance on what I might hurt? Certainly, the printer must connect internet I can print from my iOS devices using HP ePrint app for iOS.

    Some might say, well, what's the problem, just use the HP application, but is not the point. I think that if something has been set up to make things easier, then use it. I chose this printer specifically for this feature is a bit frustrating for her so difficult to get the desired results.

    Hope it is something simple and anyone can help you.

    Thank you

    Steve

    Following this request and reading the many more similar questions, I think I may have solved this.

    I'm not 100% sure but I read a few threads suggests that there are issues around BT Homehub 3 and Hello so this can be a problem.

    I tried the following in the past two days...

    (1) completely don't reset my router (wiped all settings and started)-no luck!

    (2) I tried changing to WPA2 to just WPA security - no luck!

    (3) tried to convey the Hello to the printer ports - no luck!

    (4) turn off the router, printer and all the devices iOS then fed back router, printer, then iOS devices - printer appears on iOS devices, but when printing was selected iOS device returned on several occasions not connected printer error.

    Finally, what seems to have made (at least for now) has been...

    (1) disconnected the Officejet ethernet and set up as wireless.

    (2) off voltage router, printer and all iOS devices then propelled upward in the order listed previously.

    (3) so far, I tried to print a mail and a web page of my iOS devices, and both have been successful.

    By the way I've been struggling also to airplay from my iPhone / iPad until I started messing around with the settings above, and now this question also seems to be resolved.

    Due to the variety of combinations (different printers, routers, etc.) people will have, it seems to be quite difficult to find a solution that solves a single problem but I hope some of my experiences and findings could help others in some way.
