Cisco Routers :: RVS 4000 Drops LAN Devices?
May 13, 2011
I recently updated my network with the following:
RVS 4000 v1.3.2.0 - Linksys by Cisco version
SG200-26
AP541N [WAP]
All devices have the latest version of firmware.Users only connect laptops via wireless, they are a mix of MAC and Windows users, devices such as printers and network storage are all wired connections.The RVS 4000 would drop the internal Lan after several hours or sometimes days, there would be no reason to the periodicity it would retain and then drop the LAN. By dropping the Lan I mean:
Internet Access would cease, devices such as laptops would lose their wireless connection, a laptop requesting an IP address would be ignored. Effectively we were down.Connecting a laptop to the network via a cable connection would eventually get an IP address but all other wired devices such as the NAS Storage and printers would be unreachable and require powering off and on to get an IP.
A reboot of the RVS 4000 by powering off the router would have to happen to restore the LAN quickly. I followed advice on the Internet and this forum by upgrading the firmware and resetting to factory defaults and then reloading the configuration.The only change that seemed to make any sort of differnece was connecting the AP541N directly to the RVS 4000 rather than the SG200-26. Throughput increased and the period between LAN drops extended but the RVS 4000 would ciontinue dropping the LAN eventually.
When it dropped the LAN during a work day, that was it!I read a lot of negative feedback on the version of RVS 4000 firmware and as the version 2.0 will not install I purchased the Cisco version of the RVS 4000 v 2.0.0.3.
The new RVS 4000 also drops the LAN! The period between drops is much longer, but it still drops the Lan.Ventilation is good and it is sitting on its edge using the platsic feet that come in the package.The AP541N is still directly connected to the RVS 4000 rather than the SG200-26.how to fix the RVS 4000 or an alternative... I would like to stay with Cisco, an alternative, if the RVS 4000 is unfixable should have a browser based admin facility!

System Information Firmware Version:V2.0.2.7CPU:STAR 9202 Router is operated 2y. No problems till now.There is sometimes abnormal lost of Internet connection, detected by LAN devices. I found it 3 days ago. This dysfunction is occasional 2-5 per day in occasional time.Nothing was changed/upgraded/updated in my WAN cable router or LAN or in the Cisco router. Nothing was changed on computers site (OS,LAN cards, drivers, ...). Just the problem is discovered on the router side.LAN operatation is correct, no problems was founded. Just the devices on LAN lose the internet connection (Win7, Lnx, Mac).
This is status of my WAN - does not matter if the internet connection was lost or not. It is still same:
STATUS-WAN/Gateway
Interface: UP
IP Address is assigned (checked by provider - correct)
Default Gateway and DNSs are assigned too(checked by provider- correct)
What was checked by me:
1. A. I disconnected the cable router from Cable modem
B. I connected the Cable router directly to laptop. Internet connection was right.
2. I called to my Cable provider to check my connection:
- with direct laptop connection to Cable router - Right
- with Cisco router connected to Cable router - Right, but no Internet connection on LAN side behind the Cisco router
3. Standard procedure was tested:
- Unplugged (electricity & cabling) all devices - Cable modem, Cisco router as well.
- Restart of Cable modem, +30 sec. connection of IP cable to Cisco router, start of Cisco router Still same. No Internet connection.
- SETUP/SUMMARY/Network Settings Status - DHCP Release or DHCP Renew was tryed - Still same.After several minutes - was Internet connection Renewed. Just by itself. how?

I have my RVS-4000 configured using static IP addresses in the LAN configuration. The users use DHCP to get their addresses (for the most part, a couple may have static IPs set on the computer). I have the maximum number of DHCP users set to 1 to restrict the ability of people to log in to the system. That one address is locked down.
The internal address of the router is set to 182.168.2.1. It doesn't conflict with anything on my network. I have 35 static IPs. About half of them are uing IP Based ACL to limit their access time but that doesn't seem to bear any relationship to what drops off.
Almost daily one or more of the users will lose their IP address and a hard reset of the router is required. The user this happens to seems random and it may be more than one but seldom all of them. The network includes Windows7 (Home & Pro), a FreeNAS, Macs (Leopard and Snow Leopard), iPad, iPods, an iPhone and an AirPort Extreme used as a WAP (DHCP is disabled). The AirPort is plugged directly into the router and has a staic ip on the RVS-4000 but is set to DHCP. It seems to be the most common problem child.

I attempted to load RVS4000_WRVS4400N_IPS_Signature_v1.50.zip and received an error message "Signature file is not the correct type of version for this device". I have firmware version 1.3.3.5, and and current IPS version 1.42. why IPS v1.5 is rejected?

I'am using a modem/router to conncet my lan to internet. unfortunetly it is impossible to switch off the router of my modem. So i connect my RVS 4000 on the modem/router and i assign it static ip 192.168.1.10 as my modem has 192.168.1.1. i disable the DHCP function on my RVS 4000. I m still using it because of its gigabit ethernet capability.
My problem is i am unable to connect to my RVS from the outside. inside the LAN no problem I just use its STATIC IP. I have a NAS on this LAN. I write a NAT/PAT rule in my modem/router to route HTTP and FTP and the port for the interface to my NAS. It's just working smoothly. But not for my RVS. I have checked the remote management and translate the traffic incoming on this port to the same port on the 192.168.1.10.Unsuccessfull !!. ok that can't be considered as external traffic.so I disable remote management and all the protection firewall, DOS,BLOCK WAN REQUEST. I route the HTTP port 80 to port 80 192.168.1.10. I try to connect to /home.htm....unsuccessful !!

I have an RVS 4000. I have several PC's to which I have assigned static IP addresses. I have recently upgraded most of the PC's to Win 7 (64) machines. I updated the firmware on the RVS4000 to 1.3.3.5 in conjunction with this. After such update (and actually before as well) I could not assign a static IP address to a PC and have access to the internet. It connects fine to my LAN, just no internet access. This is also affected on several other machines running Win XP and Win 2003 Server, so it's not just this computer.
I have:
1. Shut down (powered off/unplugged) everything, router, DSL modem, switches, server, etc.
2. As I said firmware is current.
3. Yes, DNS servers and gateway, subnet, etc. are all correctly specified on the PC.
4. Router is set for gateway mode.
5. Set to only IPV4.
The only way it allows internet access is to use DHCP. I've even tried taking the IP address via DHCP and manually assigning the DNS servers and that works fine, but as soon as I assign a static IP internet access is immediately gone.
There must be something I'm missing, but I can't seem to find it.
Everything worked fine prior to the conversion of the Win 7 machines, i.e. I had several PC's with static IP's and no problems.

After configuring the router and enabling a load of functions to secure our LAN, the download speed halved! Even disabling AcitveX "eats" 10Mbs! I understand that enabling IPsec will drag the speed down to 25Mbps, but I have disabled this.
Even setting the QoS to speeds equal or higher then the ISP's promissises drags the speed down!

This type of issue has been posted time and time again by others. In this particular instance the ability to deny and allow access based on a time and day for one or more MAC id or IP address or range of addresses does not work. Because the code is so "weak" that it cannot handle a policy which passes the midnight threshold into the morning (the test is actually commented out in the code), one is forced to write one, perhaps two inverse permit rule(s). In this case, it cannot be done because the "allow" radio button is stippled out.
Some simple digging reveals that the file AccessRes.htm gets to the browser with the "allow" radio button stippled out because the token "disabled" appears in the generated html.
<input type="radio" value="allow" name="f_status2" onclick="setBLOCK()" disabled="">
I have several of these devices. They are all new V2 units. They all have the latest version of the firmware and they are all broken the same way. This behavior is the same on various flavors of browser. As an experiment, based on SOP responses I've read, I downloaded and flashed with the latest firmware (same version as delivered), and then performed the factory reset. No change. It's broken.

My RVS 4000 v1 router firmware version 1.3.0.5 has been intermittently going off-line ... a reset of the power resolves the issue temporarly. My plan was to update the firmware but I haven't been able to download an uncorrupted version of the firmware file on the Cisco support site. The file downloads as a zip file but the winzip program says that the file is not in a valid zip format and cannot open it.

I have HP laserjet 4000 tn. Had an old router and upgraded to a new wireless router, when connecting it to the new router, the port I connect to has the amber light come on. I have reset to factory setting thinking it would reset and capture a new ip address. still giving me problems. try connecting it to my macbook pro and cannot get a "fix" on the printer either. I know it has to do with the configuration of the printer.

We have an RVS-4000 router that we use as an Internet gateway on our school network. I am trying to set up an Internet Access Policy to block some specific websites by URL using a domain name. I set up the policy, and added a PC to the list using the mac address, and the blocking did not work. I went back to the list and added the IP address of the same PC, the policy still did not work to block the domain. I rebooted the router, cleared the Internet Temporary files and history on the PC, and the policy still does not work. It acts like it is going to block access to the website because it takes a long time, but it will eventually connect.

This is the RVS 4000
Firmware version 1.3.3.5
STAR 9202 Chipset
64 MB DRAM
8MB Flash
DOS, Block WAN Rq, Remote mgmt all OFF
IPSec Tunnel none used
[code].....
Every day or so the Router becomes unresponsive to the HTTP mgmt interface, as well as it no longer offers DHCP services.then this happens the only remedy is to power reboot.
Everything comes back online just fine, however, the LOGS are initilaized so no data to figure out what`s going on.My next step is to setuo a syslog server and have the logs copied out.( No, I have no Torrents running at all, but I do have several devices like AppleTV, PS3s etc that run streaming Video plus I have the SPA3102 )

I am running the e3000 as an access point.. My iphone and ipad connect to it seamlessly. After a few hours to days, they are no longer recognized by the router. Nothing I reset on the phone or ipad makes any difference. The only solution I have found is to re-boot the router. They then re-connect on their own.

I have an RV042 connected via VPN to the office (to a LinkSys DFL-700). Sometimes the VPN is dropped and never activates again. In this state, if I try to connect to the WEB interface, I can log in, but the router hangs at the login screen. I have to power recycle the router to make it work again.
Updated to latest firmware 4.2.1.02 for V3 hardware. The funny thing is that services from the WEB routed through to local IP adresses on the lan is still accessible. I have setup PPPT VPN on the router, and that also fails to work.
Is there, as a workaround, any possibility to access the routers reset page or access via TELNET to reset the router? This migth be useful, when I'm out. (I have a backup solution to access the local network at home).

I installed the RV220W Router in my office about 2 weeks ago and everything works perfectly for 3-4 days but then my connection drops out and the router must be restarted to restore connectivity. When I say the connection drops basically the internet connection drops out and my network connections drop shortly thereafter. Usually the wireless connections lose connectivity followed within a few minutes by the wired connections.
Is there something in my firewall settings that could cause this issue? I have checked with my ISP to verify there are no problems on their end.

I'm on firmware 1.0.0.26 and I'm seeing frequent drops in the WAN connection. Most network clients don't notice the drop because it reconnects, but the X11 windows server running over a VPN drops the session and I have to re-establish it. Also, at the same time I experience a 15-20 second silence gap on my VoIP phone connected to vonage (not over VPN). Never happened on my Linksys router, but it happens many times a day on the rv220w. When the drop happens I get the errors listed below in the router log:

Basically my sister, who lives in a flat attached to the side of my parents' house, wanted me to find a solution for her to get internet, as there is no signal from my parents' wireless down in the flat.Originally I tried an old belkin wireless range extender I had lying around but even then the signal was extremely weak and the connection was too slow.So, I decided I would get some powerline adapters. But, of course, my sister needs wireless, so I figured I would use the powerlines to connect a second wireless router to the existing one.And so begin my real problems. The thing is, it actually worked fine at first. I set up a new wireless network, and had the ethernet from the powerline running in to the WAN port of the second router. But, every few minutes or so the connection would just die suddenly and take a while to come back (the connection was still there, but the browser just gave DNS errors etc).So I did some googling and fount a lot of people saying that I had to A) plug it into one of the LAN ports, not WAN, and B) disable DHCP on the second router.However when I do this I simply cant load anything at all. I'm thinking maybe there's some additional setup regarding static IPs or something that I need to do when I disable DHCP?

Recently i bought a Cisco RVS4000, upgraded the firmware to latest stable release (Firmware Version: V2.0.2.7) and started configuring it.Yesterday i found out that as the dsl connection drops (i'm using PPPoE with an ethernet ADSL Modem) the product stops logging, both locally and to an external configured syslog (which resides on a linux box over the LAN).

I've just purchased WRVS4400N VPN router and installed it. This was a replacement of a old Linksys router. After installing the router, I've started seeing wireless drops, packet drops and latency on pings. I've installed the latest firmware, disabled Firewall services, disabled IPS. No changes at all. As a basic example, I am pinging my NAS device (hard wired to router) from a laptop connected to wireless below. Previously while connected to my old linksys router the time was equal to no more than 2ms.

For eight months we have not had any problems with our new WRVS4400N (V2.0.2.1) connected to a Verizon/Westell 6500 to provide DSL internet for our network with DHCP on our server... No changes have been made to the router or modem since initial setup; but, then it started -- Our internet connection would drop intermittently. Sometimes every 5 or 10 minutes - sometimes every hour. Verizon has tested the lines which came up ok, then they sent a tech who changed the wire pair coming into the building for the DSL line and retested the lines which again came up ok, then they provided us with a new modem (now a Verizon/Westell 7500). After all that, the DSL still connects then disconnects intermittently. I am now wondering if the issue lies with the WRVS4400N.

I have wireless router F5D9230-4. I use this every day to connect to my employer's corporate network from my home, using a VPN connection via Cisco AnyConnect Mobility Client.
Just about every day my VPN connection is interrupted and, although it "thinks" it is connected, it loses connectivity to my company's corporate resources. This occurs even though I'm connected to my router using a Cat5 cable. While this VPN connection is lost, my Internet connection keeps working.
When I use the same computer, even wireless, connected through other networks outside of my home, the VPN connection is never lost (or at least never that I remember).
When I wire my computer directly to my cable modem, this problem does not occur and my VPN connection stays connected throughout the day.
Note that I reset my wireless router to all default settings other than the password to access its management utility, to avoid any "weird settings" coming into play.
I wonder if this has to do with "VPN Passthrough" or the windows 7 firewall conflicting with my router's firewall?
I've been working with the IT department at my job for weeks on this and a resolution doesn't seem to be coming from that direction. I'm on calls every day that use this VPN connection and it's to the point where these VPN connection losses are embarrassing to me.

On several calls i noticed that the outgoing audio stops for 5..15 seconds randomly. I'd say it happens on an average of every 5 minutes.
When this happens, i can see that the value after "Call1 Packet error:" increases by one. Why just a wrong packet may stop the outgoing audio for so long? i've much more packet losts (about 3%) but they give me no problem at all.
Since a little and cheaper Handytone HT502 gave me intermittent audio too, but the effect was much better (audio still stops, but in a second it comes back), i wonder if is there something i can do by tweaking the WRP400 settings, I'm still using firmware 1.01.00.

When our DSL modem drops its connection, even momentarily, the RV220W requires a power cycle before the computers on the LAN can browse again. When I connect to the router, the WAN Information displays the word Connecting, rather than Connected.
We have a DSL modem connected to the router, the router connected to an ethernet switch, and our small business pc's connected to the switch.
Firmware on the router is 1.0.4.17

My RV110W is only a few months old and apparently started ginvg me issues shortly after I got it. Since it was new, however, I only recently suspected it as the culprit!
I have a simple home/small business setup. A single PC wired into the lan and a handful of occasional use laptops & Android phones/tablets and a Playstation.My connection is a 30M down / 5M up cable link. I have a UBEE DOCSYS 3.0 cable modem operating in passthru mode to my RV110W.
Over the course of several days, thruput drops from the measured 30/5 down to as low as 1/whatever. Rebooting the RV110W restored full speed. The UBEE has never been rebooted during this time. Connecting my wired desktop PC directly to the UBEE modem give me the full 30 downlink speed even when the RV110W perfomance has dropped to 5 or even 1.
I am using onle a single wireless LAN, no logging turned on, no VPN, no other 'tuning of settings.As it is, this device must be rebooted every few days to restore full network speed. This is unacceptable, of course - especially from a small business class device!

i have bought (two pro-500 full managed switches, an 541N access point and a RVS4000 router). I have installed the quick vpn which came on the cd rom with my router and as I'm running .windows 7 ultimate 64 I can just not connect. So running through the forums I find out that this is a know problem and that before going further I should run a new VPN client software. Now trying to download I cannot...I have to register..fine...done..... BUT NO now I need a I don't know which service agreement with I don't know who. I have used dozen of routers and networking gear but I have never experienced that for a owned product after registration I can not download an upgrade.
