Cisco Routers :: RV180W - Setting Up WAN Static IP Connection
Jan 10, 2013
I've read and read about setting up the WAN static IP connection, and can't get it to work. I purchased this router to replace an older Linksys Router (WRT150N) so that I could better implement VPN. All I need is 2 remote connections. The Linksys Router has been working great with a static IP setting, so I figured all I need to do to is enter the same IP, subnet, gateway, and DNS settings in the RV180W and it should work fine. Well it doesn't provide any connection to the internet. As far as I can see, it has all the same settings set that the linksys has.
Is there something additional I must do for a WAN static IP setting setup. I even contacted the ISP but they say their modem is fine and of-course they won't assist with the router. As soon as I connect the linksys back to the modem, I get access to the internet.
I'm no engineer, but something isn't allowing any Internet services. LAN is fine. I attached a W7 laptop to the router, and it says it can't reach the internet due to something about proxy services. There is no proxy server so not sure what it is referring to.
By the way I tried another manufacturer router just to ensure that it wasn't a defective RV180W, but that router didn't connect either - same issue. If I set it up on my home service, both work albeit only with DHCP WAN settings.

Today I installed the 1.0.2.6 Firmware on a RV180W. I only have now two problems regarding the Static DHCP support in the GUI.
1. Via the Networking > LAN (Local Network) > Static DHCP I have no buttons to Add a new static Lease.
2. Via the Networking > LAN (Local Network) > DHCP Lease Clients I can thick a Lease and click on Make Static IP. The result is an error: Operation failed.

I am having a heck of a time configuring 2 RV180W's to establish an IPSEC VPN tunnel. I have some experience at this with other Cisco products (RV042/082) but I can't get these beasties to cooperate.One RV180W is at a client's office and there are to be 1x RV180W and 1x RV120W located at 2 employee's residences.The office has a Static IP and the homes have dymamic IP.I figured I would config the units in the homes to be initators and connect to the office where the static IP is. This is failing for me so far. Any example (screenshot?) of a config where this is working? The firmware on the RV180W's I am trying to configure first are current.I even tried testing from my office (where I have multiple static IPs available) from RV180W here to RV180W at client's office (static at both ends) and I can't get a tunnel to come up. Obviously I am missing the boat at some point in the setup.

I am working with a RV180w and need to map drives from the internal network to the VPN client but whenever I try to connect to a shared drive I continue to get authentication messages from the DC. Any useful guide for configuration in this scenario. Internal subnet is on Windows 2008 domain.

Initial setup with RV220W completed without difficulty,Need to set up static IP for one of the machines in the LAN (not static IP for WAN),I presume I use the static DHCP option, which allows me to select a particular IP for the machine I select based on it's MAC,1. My confusion stems from the manual stating that "the IP address that you pick should be outside the DHCP address range specified on the Networking> LAN(local network)>IPV4(local network)page".,Does that mean that the range on the IPV4 local network page should be modified to exclude the IP address that I want to use for the static IP..e.g. change the range from 1-255 to 1-200 and then use an IP of XXX.XXX.X.201 for instanceor does that mean that as soon as I choose an IP on the Static DHCP page, that if will reserved for use only on that machine and not used for another machine on the LAN, without me having to do something else to exclude it's use (i.e. does reserving a static IP automatically remove it from the range of IPs available to other machines)If I simply set a static IP on the local machine by going to "change network adapter" settings, what's the liklihood that the router might use the same IP on another machine.

I would like to ask if what is the difference between RV180W-E-K9-G5 and RV180W-A-K9-NA specifically the -E and the -A. As far as I know -A is the compliance code for Philippines. Am I right? If yes, what about -E? There is a documentation for wireless complaince on Aeronet devices but what about these SB products?

Until now i used a D-Link router with a DDNS account on dyndns.com. I used the ddns account for accesing the surveillance camera when i wasen't at home. The ports for the cameras are 80 and 83.I have a static ip and when i tiped the IP on broswer i was able to acces the camera with port 80 and when i tiped ip:83 i was able to acces the camera with port 83.Today i got a RV180W router made de configuration (ddns, port forwarding) but now when i type the ip address i can't see the camera, instead the router interface is loading and when i tipe ip:83 i get the message "The connection has timed out".I've tryed diferent things but i can acces the camera only by internal ip (192.168.1.x) but using the DDns address i can't acces the camera.

I have 8 RVs4000's to built a test system with. On each side of the network is 2 servers, both with 2 NIC's. Both are on different /24 networks.
The idea is to simulate a WAN link, with the RVS4000's G1 & G2 running in "Gateway" mode to simulate the WAN. All other RVS4000's will be in Router mode ('R1,R2...etc..') All networks in /24 range. As I understand it, the RVS4000 CANNOT take 2 diverse networks on the LAN side: - ie 192.168.168.1 & 10.1.1.1 on the LAN side. The NIC's on the server only need to communicate to the similar type of addresses on the other side - 192.168.168.1 on server 1 to 192.168.170.2 on server 2, but NOT 192.168.168.1 to 10.1.2.1 on server 2. The G1 & G2 link is so that all communications are routed between this link - as a testing point.
So, my questions are this:
1) Will this work? Is there any easier way of doing this? (Bear in mind this is the only equipment i have to do this).
2) Is the static routing I have thought of work? (see below)
R1
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.1.1.10
R2
5.5.5.0 255.255.255.0 10.1.1.100
4.4.4.0 255.255.255.0 1.1.1.200
[code]....
I know using the RVS4000's inbuilt RIP may be easier, but I've never configured RIP routing. As this is a test environment, using static routing would be enough to get it going. No security lock down is required, all I'm trying to enable is for the servers to communicate with each other (NIC1 on both servers e.g 10.1.1.1 on server 1 to 10.1.2.1 on NIC 1server 2, and NI 2 on server 1 192.168.168.1 to NI 2 on server 2 192.168.170.1) The 10.1.x.x networks DO not need to talk to the 192.168.x.x networks. THe G1 & G2 link is just for testing - but all communications must pass through here and be routed to their relevant networks on the other side.

I recently purchased a Cisco RV180W VPN router and would like to enable the VPN (specifically IPSec) capabilities so that I can connect via my Android 4.0 (Samsung Galaxy S3) phone. I need step by step instructions (I'm quite unfamiliar with Cisco routers) to configure both the router and my Android phone to do this. I've actually been able to configure the RV180W to work with PPTP (and connect via my phone with PPTP), but would prefer to use IPSec.

I recently bought one RV180W and two WAP121 in order to make a wireless extension of a network.I configured RV180W as Router and the three of them have the same SSID and password.Also, I added in RV180W WDS configuration both MAC Addreses of WAP121's and in WAP121's WDS configuration the MAC Address of RV180W.Even I tried in WAP121's with and without encryption using the same WPA Key of the RV180W.
The thing is that is not working at all. They work great separately but right WAP121 can't stablish WDS link with RV180W neither do the left WAP121 with RV180W.I tested WDS configuration of WAP121's and they can see each other between them using standard WDS configuration, so I assume that WDS function of WAP121's works great.Finally I try the same config but setting RV180W in WDS Bridge and WDS Repeater without any different result.Do I have any chance to make the topology I showed up would work? How do I have to configure the RV180W and WAP121's?

This is the situation in our Lab.We have one telephone line with broadband connection and a system which is connected to a modem to use this broadband facility. Recently we have taken two static IPs over this connection for a project work.Now what I want to know is, how to configure these static IPs, so that I can connect two systems (each one to one static IP) to use these static IPs and continue to access the internet in the 3rd (already present) system.

We bought a RV220W in order to get a VPN in our Small Business. The RV220W will only be used to let clients connect to it and not a tunnel between another VPN box.We could use QuickVPN, but it won't be working in our case, because in order to use QuickVPN, the router wants to change its IP 10.x.y.1. Because we have multiple servers/services that are using a static IP, it would be quite painful to change the subnet. Therefore, we would like to stay on the same subnet and change it in worst case scenario only. This is why QuickVPN is not an option here.We could use SSL VPN, but most of our clients who will connect to the VPN are using Windows 7 x64. I have tried the Windows 7 x64 fix told in the latest firmware release notes, but I can't get it to work on my computer, which is a Win7 x64. It might still be broken. Many of them are not very tech-savyy, so I can't tell them to use a virtual machine to connect.We want a secure connection, therefore IPSec is better than PPTP. I've been trying to setup IPSec for the past hours but I can't get it working. At first, I wanted to use an SSL certificate, but having no luck with this, I switched to a Pre-shared Key (PSK) in order to get things simpler. Eventually I would like to use an SSL certificate, however I would like to get PSK working first to confirm that the IPSec connection is working.
I have attached with this post, screenshots of the IKE and VPN Policies. I have used the VPN Wizard in order to complete these fields. The local identifier is the WAN DynDNS FQDN. However, as for the remote FQDN, there should be none really, because clients are connecting to it, so the RV220W won't know in advance who's connecting and from where. I have read that when using the Responder type, the remote settings should not matter. Also, the PSK is 25 caracters long.After setting the RV220W up, I have set up a L2TP/IPSec VPN connection on my Windows 7. I have set up the connection to connect to the DynDNS address and set up the PSK in the Advanced settings. After I typed my IPSec username and password to connect (which was created in the IPSec users section), Windows tries to connect and times out :
Error 789 : The L2TP connection attempt failed because the security layer encountered a processing error during initial negotiations with the remote computer.
At the same time on the RV220W, this error shows up in the logs :
2012-08-26 23:45:24: [rv220w][IKE] ERROR: Could not find configuration for 24.54.xx.xx[500]
I can't figure out what I am doing wrong. I've read the Administration manual quite a few times and it seems that I have followed everything by the book.I have tried to enable/disable my Windows firewall, but did not get any luck. The RV220W is located at a remote office, to make sure that I can connect from the outside, before you think that I'm trying to connect to the outside, from the inside I have changed few settings in the IKE policy to try to make it work. Settings such as the Exchange Mode, because I've read that the Aggressive mode had issues. At this moment, the settings are back to default, once the wizard has been run. I'm thinking about setting a PPTP to confirm that this works, then move up to IPSec PSK, then to IPSec SSL Certificate.

I installed the RV180W yesterday and decided to play with it a bit today. I got stuck on the firmware update. Tried different browsers on different PC's. Tried going to 1.0.1.9 first. I have the "reset all configurations" button checked. After looking through the posts here I'm not sure this firmware will even fix my next few problems(port forwarding etc). Is there a trick with this device?

We have installed a fiber internet access and have the ONT from the provider already installed.We're trying to use the RV180W to use this internet connection. [code] So I need to configure the router with the .36 static IP on the WAN, and using the .37 gateway and the provided DNS servers. I also need that this WAN is tagged with VLAN ID 20. I'm only able to set VLAN ID on the LAN ports via the admin interface.

I am struggling to configure my new RV180w router to accept a VPN connection from my Apple computers.
I wish to use IPSec with Group and Pre-Shared Key authentication. The RV180 has just replaced my 800 series ADSL router and I want my remote clients to be able to connect using either the VPN client capability built into the OS X operating system or the Cisco VPN Client software installed on their Macs.
So far, using the RV180's web setup screens, I have created a VPN Policy and a corresponding IKE Policy was created as well. I couldn't see anywhere to include the 'Group' name. I have created a user but wasn't sure of which Protocol to use so I am trying XAUTH.
At the client end some people are connecting using Cisco's VPN Client software Download Software - Cisco Systems
Some people, with OS X 10.6 and above, are using the Mac OS X network built-in VPN client.
We all connected without a problem to the previous 800 series router using IPSec with Group authentication and Pre-Shared key.

i've installed the new firmware on my router and now the UC is showing 100% all the time. I've tried to factory reset it, it's doing the same thing. If I downgrade to previous firmware, it goes back to normal . I've only 1 PC in my network (test lab), so no big traffic here. is it a bug ?

I just recently switched from the WRVS4400N to the RV180W. I have 4 VLANs, and I want VLANs 1, 2, 3 to communciate freely, but I DONT want VLAN 4 to communicate with anybody, just Internet access. On the WRVS4400N, I was able to do this using the Firewall > IP Based ACL. I notcied that the RV180W, does not have such an option. I am sure there is something I am missing, I just cant find out how to isolate VLAN 4.

we've changed our rv042 for a rv180w and now when I try to upload files to my ftp server (vsftpd under centos) it get stuck at 100%.I've changed my ftp server to proftpd instead of vsftpd and everything's ok.but vsftpd isn't the problem since i was able to upload with my rv042 without any problems.so i guess there's a problem with the rv180w security.i've already disable stealth mode and it's doing the same thing when i try to upload to the same server but through the vpn tunnel, everything's ok.So it's really in the rv180w lan->wan routing

Have not purchased RV180W at this time, therefore have not read manual. Need for small office, 2 VPN logins max & not 24x7 use. What VPN client software ? (using Win7-64bit laptops)
I did notice software called Quick VPN Client 1.4.2.1 for download.
Does buying RV180W allow download of Cisco Systems VPN Client software ?

I am located in UK which uses PPoA for ADSL broadband. I use a DrayTek Vigor120 ADSL2 Modem to act as an ADSL bridge and PPoA to PPPoE converter. This passes the ADSL authentication requirement (and subsequent single static IP address) to the Cisco Small Business RV180W sitting behind the Draytek. However, the RV180 (Firmware Version 1.0.0.30) cannot form the PPPoE connection. I have tested the modem, adsl username and password by creating a PPPoE interface on my computer and connecting this directly to the Draytek modem. The computer receives the expected IP address and I can ping remote public IPs. I have entered the username and password into the PPPoE profile,
Authentication type: CHAP (confirmed by ISP but I have also tried all other options just in case).
Connection Type: Keep Connected.
MTU Size: 1400 (also tried default, which worked OK on computer interface).
MAC Address Source: Use Default (I have successfully used combined modem/router so a "fixed" MAC address is not required).

I live in China. I want all of my PC's and devices to connect through the RV180W VPN Router to a VPN provider in the US so that all of my traffic is encrypted and appears to have a US IP address. I need to find a VPN Service Provider that supports the RV180W and how to configure it. I don't want to configure every PC and device, I just want them to use the VPN conneciton at the router.

I am using DynDNS in lieu of a static ip. My ISP changed my WAN ip last night as expected however the RV180W did not update the WAN ip, and so the router is now offline. Using a secondary internet connection I have logged into DynDNS.com and checked my hosts file and confirmed the ipa has not updated since March. I changed the update period from 360 to 2 so this never happens again, but I need to now change the WAN ipa in the RV180W to match the new one. I remember a screen that shows the current WAN ip address greyed out under the present one, but I dont recll where to go to get to that. I am at a loss as to where I go in the RV180W to change the WAN ip address.

We are deploying over 20 RV180W Routers for a client and need to find a faster way to configure them for shipping.We have created a base image (all settings that will be shared between the 20 locations), we need an easy and quick way to make IP changes for the 3 VLANs and Local Security Groups for the IPSEC VPN.I tried to edit the CFG file by hand, but the checksum fails when it is loaded into the RV180W.How can I accomplish this? Can I manually create the checksum?Can I remove the checksum?

VLAN2 = 10.1.11.1
Inter WLAN routing is enabled on both VLANS
I have VPN PPTP set to 10.1.10.50-60
When I connect the VPN I get an IP address of 10.1.10.55 I can ping the 10.1.10.x network i cannot ping anything in the 10.1.11.x network.
I need to be able to see (ping/access by IP) both VLANs from a VPN PPTP connection.
