Actiontec V100H - A New Router Incompatible With Vista?
Sep 11, 2011
We recently moved to a place with included internet that was going through a wireless network. All of my devices connect fine, no problem (iPhone xbox and USB adapter) but the lady friends laptop wont connect. It recognizes the network, connects to the network after the password has been entered but will not "give out" any internet. Signal Strength is very good (router is maybe 20 feet from us). All the drivers for the wireless adapter in her laptop are up to date and it will connect to other networks, like at her mom's. This is a newer router and funny enough we actually used this exact model at our last place and it had no problems with this. After calling our landlords ISP they said that there may be a problem with the compatibility of her laptop (its only 3 years old and connects to other networks fine) with the router, yet it connected to the same model not 6 months ago.
People we are at wits end and I am . As my username states If I cant find a fix for this I will enjoy smashing this thing to bits.
FYI: the router is an Actiontec V100H

I am running Windows Vista service pack 2 using my laptop - Hp Pavilion dv5-1111ea and I have a qwest actiontec gt701-wg router. When I try to connect to the router it says connected to local only and when I diagonise the connection it says that Security policy seetings on this computer might be blocking the connection.
The following policy might need to be adjusted to allow windows to connect: Policy Provider:Windows Firewall Filter Name: Query User

I read an earlier posting about an issue between SPI on the latest WRT610N Version 1.0 firmware and a user's Apple TV. This pointed me to a "solution" to a perplexing problem I was having.
I have 4 machines, 3 connected via WiFi and 1 on one of the wired ethernet ports. I also have 2 Apple Airport Express units for audio streaming as well as 2 iPhones connected wirelessly.
Now for the symptoms, which are all new since updating to firmware ver.1.00.03.15:
1. The WiFi machines see the Airport Express units and can stream audio to them. However, the iPhone Remote app has trouble staying connected to iTunes running on any of these machines. A router reboot is a temporary fix, but connection is eventually lost again.
2. The wired machine cannot see the Airport Express units, nor can the Remote app pair with iTunes on that machine. It's as though no Bonjour-related functions work. Here, a router reboot also provides a temporary fix, but one that lasts only minutes.
Based on that prior post, I disabled SPI on the router and, lo and behold, the wired machine suddenly sees all Airport Express units and can pair with the iPhone Remote app!
I was going crazy, verifying that I was not having Windows Firewall issues, that there wasn't an incompatibility with Windows 7 (which I'm running on all), that this wasn't a Homegroup incompatibility of some sort, that Bonjour was up to date, etc. Only turning off SPI fixed the problem entirely.
So, Linksys ...Any firmware bug fix in the works for this? Can I safely go back to the prior firmware update without security or function concerns? If so, where can I get my hands on the older firmware file?
WRT610N Version 1.0 running 1.00.03.15

I'm trying to load the linksys software from my CD to reset my WRT54G router and the software will not run because it is not compatible with Windows 7. Where do I find a new version. I do have network access at this time.

I bought an Actiontec GT724WGR. I downloaded the latest firmware and went to install it. When it finished, I got the confirmation box and it gave me the click okay to restart option. I clicked okay, and when the router power cycled, the Power light stayed amber. I can't manually reset the setting back to default with the reset button. I can't access the router settings.

I connected EA6500 internet port to actiontec router provided by Verizon fios. I don't have any other way to connect as FIOS connection is coax to actiontec modem. I must take a drop from actiontec to internet port on EA6500.
With that said, I can't get EA6500 to work, it keeps saying no internet. The only way I can get it to work is when I set it to bridge mode. This makes my EA6500 a dumb switch/access point. I didn't spend $200 for a switch. I need to use advanced features offered by this router but I can't until this problem is fixed. I made sure I am running latest version of firmware (1.1.28.146856).
I have reset my fios router as well as ea6500 to factory defaults multiple times.

capping all of the computers on my router to a certain speed. I like to play games and the others like to buffer movies, is there a way I can cap all of ours so we can each get smooth internet use? Be it by program or through the router it would be great to get it setup and working. Router is Actiontec GT704WG and has 4 computers hooked up to it, will post other spec's if needed.

I recently moved in with a friend, and we're having trouble setting up file sharing. His PC is connected directly (via ethernet cable) to an Actiontec M1424WR wireless router, which is broadcasting a WEP-secured wireless network. My PC is connected wirelessly (via an RNX-N180UBE usb adapter). Both machines are running Windows 7. Internet access is great. We tried to set up a homegroup, however, and are getting nothing but problems.He created a homegroup on his PC, gave me the password, and I joined on my PC. It said it joined and asked me what I wanted to share, but that's as far as we can get.
- On his PC, when he goes to the Homegroup page, it says "no other Homegroup computers are available."
- On my PC's Homegroup page, I see his computer name listed, and when I open it it shows libraries, but when I double click them it nothing happens
- He right-clicked his "downloads" folder and did "share with -> Homegroup;" I see it in my PC's Homegroup page but when I try to open it, the system thinks for a while before popping up a "cannot access" message
- I also shared a folder of mine to the Homegroup but, since he can't even see my PC, he can't see the folder
- I ran IPCONFIG on both machines; his machine's IP is 192.168.1.2; my machine's IP is 192.168.1.5
- When I ping his machine from my machine, I get "request timed out"
- When I ping my machine from his machine, I get replies.
- When I ping the router from my machine, I get replies.
- He has a printer. On my Homegroup page, it tells me that it has detected a new printer, but the "Install Now" button does nothing.
I've gone into Network and Sharing Center -> Advanced Sharing Settings and enabled "Allow Windows to manage homegroup connections." I did this on both machines.He runs a VPN on his machine. Thought that might be the problem, so we turned it off but nothing changed. I run both Hamachi and Tunngle on my machine. Disabled both of those but nothing changed.

I have a Verizon supplied actiontec g band router, and would like to place a WRTU54G-TM on the other side of the house to act as a repeater or a wireless bridge (?). I want stronger wireless at that other side of the house and beyond, and use cat5 to hook up some other devices.Can I bridge the actiontec and WRTU54G-TM together, or do they have to be the same brands?

I bought the Linksys E1200 for it's wireless N and the guest account. set up my new Linksys E1200 router to use for wireless N access rather that my Verizon Fios provided Actiontec (model M4124-WR Rev.C) which is only wireless G, and so that I can use the guest account. I have an ethernet cable running from one of the 4 ethernet ports on the E1200 to one of the 4 LAN ports on the Actiontec. I have the wireless turned off on the Actiontec, and have the E1200 set as 192.168.1.200.My wireless N signal seems to be working fine from the E1200, and I was able to turn on the guest account on the E1200 and "connect" to it on my iPhone 4, but then when I open Safari I can not connect to the internet.

Just had Verizon FIOS service installed. It comes with an actiontec modem. I would like to remove the actiontec modem and connect directly to my Linksys RT31P2 which is cascaded to my Linksys WRT54G. I have tried just about every router setup config; all with no success. How to be able to connect the FIOS directly to a linksys router.

I had an old MS DSL1000 that was upgraded by Qwest to an Actiontec GT701 (not wireless) modem. If the GT701 is plugged directly into the PC, the internet works fine. If it is connected from the ethernet port into the WRT160N router, the LAN works but not the internet, even though the internet light is a solid green on the GT701. I've read about port forwarding and DMZ, but still not positive if I should do one or the other, much less on how to go about setting either of them up correctly.

I got Fios installed this week. Router is the Actiontec MI424, it sits int he living room. I ran a speed test of the wifi on my laptop in the living room, and the internet speeds were great. Here's my problem. I'm in a 2 br condo, not a huge place maybe like 1200 Sq feet, same floor. Wifi is awesome in the living room, but in the bedroom it hangs. I still have a signal, varying for low to good, but it takes forever to open a web page, to the point where you can't use the internet. Bedroom is just down the hall.I called Verizon. They told me they can only guarantee the wifi signal 10 feet from the router, after that no promises. My frustration is that with my previous provider, which was giving me a slower internet connection, my wifi in the bedroom was fine and the router was in the exact same spot. Of course I used my own router? I know there are instructions on connecting my old router to the fios one and using my old router for wifi.

I have a Cisco 1751 that I wanted to use to create another network behind my Actiontec m1424wr Verizon router. My plan was to connect a linksys wrt54gs to the Cisco router for device connectivity. And I wanted everyone else in the house to still be able to use the Verizon router as expected. I know this is probably not the best way to create an internal network. But I am studying for the CCNA & CEH and just wanted to use the Outdated Cisco IOS on the 1751.

I'm using a stock FIOS router Actiontec MI424WR, and I'm trying to access the router settings at 192.168.1.1. I type in my username fine, but when I type the password, each keystroke gives me more than one digit. Even holding Ctrl adds one, and letting go removes three characters. I've never seen this happen before, and I've tried it on two computers and three different browsers. I see that people recommend hard-resetting the router, but I was wondering why this has happened

I just received a new Cisco SG300-10 and am configuring it in Layer 3 mode. I am trying to setup multiple routed VLANs going back to a FiOS Actiontec router. My configuration is as follows.
Fios Router: 192.168.1.1
Assigning DHCP 192.168.1.2 through 100.
SG300-10 has VLan 1 ip 192.168.1.5 used for Mgmt.
VLAN2 is 10.0.2.1
VLAN3 is 10.0.3.1.
I have a static route set on the fios router for both subnets setup as follows.
Destination 10.0.3.0 Gateway 192.168.1.5 Netmask 255.255.255.0 Metric 1
Destination 10.0.2.0 Gateway 192.168.1.5 Netmask 255.255.255.0 Metric 1
I have a laptop connected to Gi8 on the Cisco (Vlan 3) and statically assigned 10.0.3.3, with a gateway of 10.0.3.1. DNS set to the fios router (192.168.1.1).
Everything pretty much works EXCEPT, I cannot get out to the internet from either vlan. Traffic routes between vlans/and the default subnet on the fios without issue.
When I ping out, DNS resolves, but will not go past the fios router. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

I have just discovered after three weeks of testing that DAP-1522 wireless bridges are not compatible with all the new Pioneer AVR's that support internet radio and Iphone control. Anytime a DAP-1522 is powered on and on the same subnet mask as a Pioneer receiver it will cause the Pioneer to loose it's connection every 30 minutes. The receiver is then not able to connect unless it is powered off and on again. The DAP-1522 will cause this even if the Pioneer is hardwired to a router and nothing is plugged into the DAP-1522. This affects all new models of Pioneer receivers including the Elite line like I have.
I have tested this with 3 differnet Pioneer receivers and 2 DAP-1522's and always got the same results no matter what the settings were and with the 1522 in AP or bridge mode. Other Pioneer receiver owners experiencing constant disconnect problems on another forum have now also confirmed they have DAP-1522's.....and they are also pissed after spending countless hours troubleshooting.
I talked to Dlink support today and they will not admit to a problem so I can't wait to contact Pioneer tech support on Monday to let them know I have found the reason they are seeing returns on their new receivers (some cost as much as $7K) since many of the new owners like myself are exchanging them thinking they got a bad one. I'm sure Pioneer will test this immediately and force a Dlink fix or turn it over to the FCC.At this point I just wish I could get my money back since I have also already confirmed that a netgear bridge works just fine. Come to think of it, I know Dlink has a new refund policy, but I will check with my state district attorney to see if they can legally keep my money even if the product doesn't work. I don't see anything on the outside of the box with this policy so therfore I wasn't given fair warning of the policy before purchase and would not be expected to know it since it is not industry standard. Let the games begin.

I have two computers(with problems over 15 that work fine) an All in one Sony that has a qualcom 9285 and a new l521x dell laptop with a dell 1901 (also atheros).I have these issues with the sony for a few years - and just wrote it off as a computer problem - we have had the sony tech come out and replace the entire motherboard, wifi module?what made me link the issue with Atheros and the router was that my new laptop is behaving the same way as the sony. They both show connected to interenet (windows 7 64 bit(sony) and windows 8(dell)) I get an IP address, and I can ping websites. If I click to watch the network traffic (on the local connection status activity) I can see 50,000 bytes received every second I have updated the sonys and dells drivers to the latest one both from sony/dells site and from atheros download site as well - but it doesn't seem to make any difference The router also states its fully up to date

I 've bought an AP541N & WAP4410N for the purpose to wireless(ly) bridge my TV with the Internet. The AP541N is connected to a AS5505 > Internet. My TV is connected to the ethernet port of the WAP4410N. (Also tried my laptop) I 've set WDS bridging on both APs:
- with and without encryption
- with same and different SSID and/or channel
In AP541N I can see that the WDS is up. However I cann't ping the WAP441N (hardset IP-address in same subnet as AP541N) from the AP541N. Therefore not strange that my TV/laptop doesn't get an ip-address through DHCP.
Although I tried this for home purposes, I gathered that if it worked it would be a nice SMB solution. I 'm a freelancer and I want to be sure that what I propose as a solution/option actually works.
I 've read in this forum that it might not work because of incompatible chipsets? If this is the case Cisco should mention in the datasheets so I don't waste my money or loose my credibility !

I am trying to get to work Web-based authentication on Catalyst 2960 and 3560 for clients that don't support dot1x. I followed this guide. Here's the problem: Client (win7) joins the network, opens the web browser and tries to navigate to any http site. The switch forces him the "login" page in which he has to enter credentials. After the client enters credentials, the switch sends http 500 internal server error page and nothing happens. Doesn't matter if the credentials were correct or not. Also i checked radius logs for requests, the switch doesn't even ask radius.
The configuration:
sh ip admission configuration
Authentication Proxy Banner not configured
Consent Banner is not configured
[Code].....

Just upgraded to Verizon FIOS and had an Actiontec MI424WR Rev F router (firmware v.20.10.7) supplied. Went to white-list my ereader's MAC in router and intitial page asked me to change the default login and password which I planned to do anyway. I know what I changed them to. Made changes, logged out, then decided I really wasn't comfortable with WEP and went back to change it to WPA. All I got was "Login failed, please try again." Finally hit the reset button and started over at the "please change login and password" screen. I can get in then.
I've been through this six times now and cannot get past the initial login without a hard reset. Tried keeping "admin" as the login because I have met peripherials that are touchy about that. Not a major issue now that I have the router set up to my satisfaction, but it frustrates me to not have password access to any part of my system. (Yes, I am that anal.)

I'm also purchasing an Asus Black Diamond Dual Band Processor, Hardware NAT, 5 Internal Antennas, Fast Gigabit Ethernet and 128MB DDR2 Wireless Router (RT-N56U) to be utilized a my primary router.My question is how do I set up the Actiontec modem to be strictly used as a modem without the wireless g function transmitting since I will be using the ASUS as the primary router? Or do I just let both of the transmit as routers together?
