Apple Airport Extreme Router - Hawking HWUN3 Wireless Has Become Super Slow?
Jun 19, 2011
For the past year my wireless has been working great and I have being playing games/doing homework with no hassle. Yestetday my internet connection became very slow. After countless restarts, router/modem resets nothing has changed and I only get like 5kb of download speed. Since my internet connection was lost naturally I unplugged the wireless card and re-plugged it, didn't change anything. After that I restarted my computer, but nothing changed. AFTER THAT I unplugged my router, then reset my router to factory settings, which did not change anything. Since everything was backed up I thought I would reinstall Windows 7 to nuke any hidden problems. After 2 reinstalls of Windows 7, nothing has changed. Next I had Comcast reset my connection with them which did not work. Though it did work with my brothers desktop. After some more time just fiddling around my connection went back to lightning speeds. no.....4 hours later my connection went dead.At all times my computer will see my network but it either will not connect to it or it is really really slow now.
Computer info: Apple Airport Extreme router Hawking HWUN3 Wireless USB ASUS P6T Motherboard
I've recently purchased an E4200, and while it works great, I'd like to use my Apple Airport Extreme (2nd generation) to extend my network to another part of the house that doesn't get as great of a signal. I've become very frustrated trying to accomplish it, and I'm not sure if the problem is more from the Linksys end, the Airport end, or if it's just me.
I have an Apple Extreme Router on the second floor of my house where the modem is. I am trying to get wifi signal in the living room in the first floor area on the other side of house. I have an Apple AirPort express halfway from the living room extending the Extreme's wifi signal, however this is not enough.I bought an Amped Wireless SR10000 repeater which i placed in the living room and was picking up the wifi from the express fine, however after one day of use, the devices would not connect unless I set a static ip from within the device. I am guessing there is some sort of DHCP conflict in the setup.I tried turning off the DHCP from the Amped Repeater but it still would not lease out IP's (I thought in doing so, the main 2nd fl extreme router would be the one in control).
in our office we have an Internet connection 20Mb upload and 20Mb download from XO our ISP provider.When my users connect using an ethernet cable to there laptops they get a speed of 18.34 download and 18.15 upload ping 7ms according to Speedtest.net.But when they connect using the wifl Access point Apple Airport Extreme they get the download speed 10.7 Mb and upload 14.5 Mb.Why such a difference in speed to the Internet? Is there a setting on the port on the Cisco SLM248G that I need to set for which the Access point is connected to.
I just bought the Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex Home, 1TB network hard drive for my home network and I cannot put files on the hard drive. The hard drive is connected to my Apple Extreme Airport router, and I can see the hard drive when I go to network on my Windows 7 computer, but when I try to put something in/open it, it gives me "error code 0x80070035 The network path was not found." Im not sure if it is my router
I have a E4200v2 i also have a Airport Extreme I want to use this to extend my wireless range in my house? I've played around a little tring to configure the Airport extreme but can't seem to get it to connect to my E4200v2? Can you mod the Airprt Extreme with dd-wrt or something that might unlock some of the features?I can't stand the interface. The E4200v2 is brand new.
I have an airport extreme router connected in my basement. My family room Ethernet connection is connected directly to the airport extreme. I can access the internet by Ethernet in the family room just fine.What I want to do is use a WRT31N as a switch in my family room so I can connect Mulitple Ethernet devices to the network. I'm having a hard time doing this. How to set up the linksys router? The airport extreme ip address is 10.0.1.1. I tried setting the linksys to 10.0.1.2 and turning off dhcp, but didn't work.
I had been using my Linksys wireless-G PCI adapter WMP54Gv4 in a PC running XP (SP3) and an Airport Extreme wireless router for the past 4 or 5 years without any issues. Then recently, my wireless signal had become flaky on all client machines (on both PC and various Macs, which reported weak signal and kept dropping and searching for a new PPPoE from my DSL line). AT&T verified our line was fine and even sent a new modem but troubles persisted, so I bought a new Airport Extreme last week. This solved the network reliability issue on the Macs just fine.
However, the PC with the WMP54Gv4 adapter now crashes whenever the new Airport Extreme is turned on. There have been no hardware or software changes on the PC, yet it now reliably produces a BSOD stating "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL". This crash also happens when booting in safe mode with networking. I can avoid the system crash when booting in safe mode without networking or booting normally without my Airport Extreme turned on, though I do see this error: "Linksys Wireless Network Monitor: Access violation at address 0040756D in module EMP54Gv4.exe"
So I cannot run any tests of the PCI card on the machine when the wireless network is on, since the operating system crashes.
The evidence thus points to an explanation where my wireless network from the new Airport Extreme is tripping up the operation of the linksys wireless card in a way that XP hates. I know the wireless network is OK, since it works fine on my Macs. I confirmed that my driver (v3.0.3.0) is still listed as current for this PCI card, so it's not a matter of having an out-of-date driver.
Here's another observation that may be relevant: When I first started using the new Airport Extreme with WPA2 protection, the PC could run without crashing, but it could not connect to the wireless network. I also had trouble connecting via my Macs. Then I switched the Airport Extreme to use WPA/WPA2 security, which is when the network-based PC crashing ensued (though the Macs can now connect just fine).
I have only windows computers at home, although for some reason i recently bought an Apple Airport express. Probably because its a lot faster than the old router Ive got now. But I have a problem when i try to set it up. When I plug in the Express and the cable from the cable modem then start Airport utility, it cant find the Express. Ive tried using my laptop and connecting it straight into the modem, but that doesn't seem to fix anything.
I have a rev. 1.0 Cisco E2000 router that is decent but when it comes to things like streaming video it severely lacks (especially when talking about HD quality). I know that the router is not really setup for that and it was more of an impulse buy when my old WRT54G v6 died on me. Anyways, I recently got $150 in gift cards to Apple and was thinking of spending it on the Airport Extreme as my wife has a 13" Macbook Pro and we plan on replacing out aging desktop PC with an iMac 21". Originally the gift cards were meant to go to the purchase of the iMac but car repairs and other things got in the way and so that has been put off indefinitely. However, I would LOVE to get a new router, especially simultaneous dual-band.
Quick edit: Things I am looking for in a router.... - SIMULTANEOUS DUAL BAND - USB connection - Relatively cheap cost (less than $150 would be awesome!) - Reliable - Good throughput for streaming and gaming
My E1500 worked perfectly before. Today CiscoConnect notified me to upgrade my router. After I've done that, the wifi connection speed is super slow. But when I use hardwire to connect, the speed is as fast as before
Just upgraded my E4200 to firmware 1.0.03 (from 1.0.01). I have some new issues, questions, and some outstanding issues.
1) Web interface over https is now painfully slow. 2) Does DDNS work in bridge mode? DynDNS allows the sending of an update without an IP address, so it should be able to work. 3) Does accessing the management interface in bridge mode count as local or remote? 4) I'd really like to be able to get WOL working through the router. I managed to create a static DHCP reservation for 192.168.1.254 to ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, but I don't think the router added that entry to the ARP table, is there any way to do this.
(I think have WOL forwarded to 192.168.1.254). 5) Should the router be providing some local dns hostnames? For example I have the device name set up in the local network setup, but it won't resolve. Similar for connected devices, especially those with with a DHCP reservation. 6) In bridge mode, does it matter which port is used to connect to the other network device? Does it have to be the WAN port?
Currently I have the modem into an apple airport extreme, this provides WiFi to the whole house + has a NAS drive connected to it...I have two x box's on the top floor of the house... One is currently wired to one of the airport extremes LAN ports...Now what I am trying to achieve - the second xbox is an old one so needs to be plugged in by cable too... (and I don't want two cables through the house). I have an old Netgear wpn824v2 router. Now so far I plugged the ethernet cable from airport x into one of the lan ports on the Netgear...Then both xboxs are wired into the netgear... The netgear has basically nothing setup on it - no security etc... ip address is on the same network as DHCP router.Netgear has upnp and dhcp disabled...Now stand alone one xbox at a time, the connection is actually faster than I have ever achieved, the full 50mb - but if i wire up my laptop to the netgear and use the internet at the same time the xbox lags like hell, so obviously not tried both xboxs together yet as it will just cause lag!
*modem* ----- wired to --------- -----airport extreme(provides WiFi to house)* ----- Wired to -- -----*NAS drive* --- AND--- -----*top floor to the second router - Netgear* ---wired to --- ----*2 Xbox's
Currently, I have 2 Apple Airport Extremes, and 1 Wireless Netgear ADSL Router. The 2 AAEs are connected separately to the router, and this allows us to get coverage in most part of the house (it's a large house with concrete and granite walls). I also have a HP Officejet 8500 'wireless printer' that is wired to the router as you can only print to the printer when it's in standby with a physical connection to the router (that's a different story). So my goal is to replace everything as the router is slowly dying and as a result of this, I want to be able to access the Internet wirelessly throughout the house, and be able to print from any where in the house without anything connected via cables. And as a bonus, I would like the Internet to be accessible 100 yards/metres down the garden (workshop is there). Basically, blanket coverage!
I have recently moved to a remote area and am using a verizon Jetpack 4620L as an internet connection.I would like to continue using my Airport Extreme in bridge mode to extend my network and to also use my wireless printer and scanner easily.
I had my Dir-655 router for over a year & this is is a first.My firmware is 1.21 & I only use my router for gaming when I'm not on my PC for home use. I have only one PC in the house that is not shared, I have also not downloaded any virus or maleware.So the past month I decided to buy a wired ethernet cord to connect to my gaming systems rather than using the wireless option to get an extra bit of speed. That has been working fine up till yesterday when all of a sudden my download speeds dropped from around 20Mb down to barely 1Mb down (I can't even get the speed test site to fully load anymore). The upload & ping remains unchanged though. Only my Download speed is being affected. This is both when I'm on the PC & when I'm online gaming.
I unplugged my D-Link router & plugged my modem directly to my PC & I got back the 20+Mb speed, so the modem or cable company are not at fault (I even called them to see if there were any problems on there end).
-I tried turning off my Firewall on my PC. -Resetting & rebooting both my modem/router/PC. -using different DNS numbers. -using /flushdns. -using /Iprenew. -Messing around with my router configurations such as: turning off QoS Engine. turning off wireless. turned of MAC filtering. unchecked "Add DHCP Reservation". unchecked SIP.
None of it worked. I'm still browsing at around 56k dial up speed for the past day+!I read up on the internet for similar problems, but the only solutions I saw was turning off the firewall on the PC, but that hasn't worked at all.
Internet VERY choppy on one computer, has happened on more than one network, both wireless and wired. I've even reinstalled Windows 7 on the machine from scratch the problem is still there.The internet goes VERY slow like 10 minutes a page sort of slow. Almost feels like its being choked but from what i can see theres no programs taking bandwidth etc.I've searched all over the net and can't find anything. I can give any information needed.The machine is currently on wireless but the wireless signal is great as i use other device on it in the same area and there perfect.

I am trying to connect my laptop running windows 7 to an airport express so I can stream music to my hi-fi.I've tried a number of different things, none of which have been successful.I've tried resetting the device before each attempt to connect it and I've also ensured that the driver for my computer's Wi-Fi (Intel (R) Wi-Fi link 5100 AGN) and the firmware for my router (Linksys E2000) are up to date. The apple airport utility program is also up to date. I also saw this webpage:Sharing my Win 7 PC with Apple Airport Extreme and wireless network. - Microsoft Answers And, all these settings were correct already.I also took the device back to the shop where it was tested and found to be working correctly.
Just plugging in my airport express - Opening the airport utility program, my airport express is recognized straight away. It is highlighted in the left-hand pane and I click on continue. I then get a message asking if I want to switch networks and it says that this is required in order to set it up. I click OK to continue. After a window appears saying that it is detecting apple wireless devices, I get error message number 4 saying that an error occurred while trying to access the network. It then asks me to check to make sure my network is valid.Using ‘configure other under the file tab - The airport express is still recognized in the left-hand pane but I click on configure other. A window appears asking for the I.P. address and a password. I enter the default I.P. address (10.0.1.1) and the default password (public) for the airport express. I then get error 6753 (an error occurred while trying to access the apple wireless device. Make sure your network connection is valid and try again)however, my computer still recognizes the airport express in the list of available wireless networks. I therefore click on it and connect to it. I then try to enter the details (under configure other again). I then get through to the configure apple wireless device screen in which I can input the details of my network details, etc. I enter the details and make sure that they match my routers settings (I have even tried this with no security settings on my router). I then click on update. The computer automatically reverts back to my network and it seems like everything is working. The green light even appears on my airport express. However, I then get a message stating: Airport utility was unable to find your wireless Airport device after restarting.Switching off the wireless network and connecting the Airport express to the computer with an Ethernet cable - The device is also recognized here and I can enter all the details. Before updating I turn on my wireless network so it can make a connection. The green light shows on the airport express but i again get the message that: Airport utility was unable to find your wireless Airport device after restarting.
Normally use internet explorer 9, but I've tried Firefox and Chrome also.For some weird reason the Wi-Fi on my computer is super slow. My roommate has no problems at all. Same issue when only one of us are connected. What's really weird is that it's only on my home network the speed is a problem. At school and at other family members houses everything is working perfectly. I now use wired internet connection, and when I take a speedtest it is around 13MB, so the speed is pretty good.
I can mention that sometimes if my computer has been closed and the cable is taken out, when I turn the computer back on the Wi-Fi is suddenly working perfectly. Only for a while though, and then it's not working anymore. Has happened more rarely recently.I've been having this problem for around 7weeks now. When I first discovered the problem I tried to uninstall the latest updates (among windows updates), and it actually worked. But I want my computer to be up to date, so it's not a go to use those settings.
I have tried to reset the router to factory settings, but that did not work.We share internet with our landlord, so to privatize what we do, it's set up like this: Landlords modem -> switch in our apartment -> wireless router But that should not be problem. It's working on everyone else's computers. My mobile phone as no issues either;I've tried to update the driver on the wireless card, but it's up to date.
I used the ASA 5510 and in these days, facing the problem is internet is very slow. When i check in real-time log viewer debugging, i found the following logs 6|Jun 29 2011|15:47:53|106015|123.123.123.123|416|111.222.111.222|80|Deny TCP (no connection) from 123.123.123.123/416 to 111.222.111.222/80 flags ACK on interface Inside 4|Jun 29 2011|15:47:53|106023|123.123.123.123|852|111.222.111.222|80|Deny tcp src Inside:123.123.123.123/852 dst Outside: 111.222.111.222/80 by access-group "Internal_access_in" [0x0, 0x0] a lot of log message are come out and I notice that 111.222.111.222 ip is try to attack my network. In that moment, my network is very slow and nearly to be down. When I block with that ip by access list, network is up again. But after a few moment, attack from other ip, it's so terrible and so tired to block a lot of ip by acl.
Two computers (XP and Win7) connected on office LAN, cisco 2960, not same switches, but all in the same rack, and link togeter, same IP subnet, tried to copy some kind of 26G files from one to another, using Windows share folders, and it showed need 23 hours to finish the copying.It's not the first time, actually we always experienced very slow speed when copying files on Windows share folders. Did not see any particualler message on the switch. ports are all full/100m.
A customer of ours has the following access points and wireless lan controllers on site. They want to use the Apple Bonjour service with Apple TV's and iPads. I have enabled multicast feature of the 5508 globally and one the SSID.The Apple TV has an ethernet connection and the iPads connect over the wifi. The Apple tv is on the same subnet as the iPad's - the Bonjour features do work for approx 5/10 minutes then it stops working for some reason. The Access Points plug into a Cisco 2960 Layer 2 switch, the 5508 controllers plug are in LAG mode and plug into a Nortel Layer 3 stack which I have enabled IGMP snooping.I've read that the Apple Bonjour service isnt designed to work on a multi subnet network - but both the Apple TV and iPad are connected on the same subnet. Sounds like some kind of timeout but not too sure.
how to setup the wireless interface to forward multicast packets? Basically I cant get the ipads etc.. to see the AppleTV to control it. I connected an AP and it works fine so its got to be something with the way the router handles the packets from teh integrated wireless interface. I've been searching the forum for about 1hr and haven't founf anything other than a breif mention of broadcast forwarding and multicast setup.
I have a Hawking 300N and I have misplaced my disk and I neing walked through this to have it set back up. I hooked it all up correctly and it says no internet connection
I recently installed a Hawking HW2R1 Wireless Repeater to extend the range of our network in the office. Is there any way to set it up so that the signal it's broadcasting has the same SSID and WPA key as the primary network in the office without causing a conflict? Ideally someone would be able to walk from one end of the office to the other without having to disconnect from Work1 and connect to Work2.
I have a Dlink Wireless N Xtreme DIR-655 I have run out of port 4 on it to a switch with a cat 5 patch cable that is 25 ft long It is connected to the Internet port on a Dlink 4 port switch. When i run from that on any of the 4 ports back to my computer ( Win7). I get no internet access but if i connect the cable straight from the router there is no problem. I even attempted to use a older dlink router for the switches and no luck there at all. Any reason the internet would not be broadcasting through the switch.
Been catching wind of an upcoming super fast router....the Asus RT-66U.Currently their RT-N56U has been the fastest router tested at smallnetbuilder....at over 800 megs throughput.The new RT-66U has a 600MHz processor, and 1 gig of RAM. State table size (concurrent sessions) at over 300,000.
Supposed to be based on the Broadcom chipset..so it'll probably support DD-WRT...but to be honest, I saw some screenies of the Asus firmware for this unit...and holy crap what cool features.url...
