Cisco Routers :: RVS 4000 Features Eat Loads Of Bandwidth?
Nov 29, 2011
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!

I just purchased a SA 520 and I am trying out the IPS feature before I buy. During my tests I get around 85 Mbps off a 100 Mbps connection (which is relatively normal), however as soon as I enable IPS with very few options (Trojan/virus, HTTP, etc), it drops down to 18 or so. Anyway to improve this?

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 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!

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.

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.

I am doing a security assessment of an organization that uses 871/881 routers with the firewall features enabled. I see the following commands defining packet inspection done by the firewall software.
-ip inspect name inet-users tcp
-ip inspect name inet-users udp
-ip inspect name inet-users icmp
What I am trying to define is the inspect name "inet-users". It is obviously a constant defined by IOS as it is not defined anywhere in the configuration file like any other "variable" and does not generate an error.What does "inet-users" define? I'm assuming it is all users using the interface(s) where the inspect commands are used, but is that correct? The Cisco IOS manuals do not contain a reference to "inet-users" hence why I'm here asking.

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 )

My first time attempting this so excuse my wrong use of terms..i believe its load balancing...new company site is going to have 2 separate connections:
con 1: 15 up/2 down coax connection
con 2: 6 up/ 6 down dish
con 1 needs to simply have http and https traffic.
con 2 will have security surveillance, SNMP, and VoIP (PBX)
the hardware i know that will be at that location when i fly up there is a Sonicwall TZ210 and a 48-port Netgear gigabit...where do i start?

Lenovo T61P
Win 7
Wireless Connection (Router Linksys WRT54G2)
I installed Comodo's Firewall and during installation I accepted to install the Secure DNS too. Afterward I noticed my web-pages loaded slower than usual. They weren't extremely slow but definitely slower than what I've been accustomed. I tried some OPENDNS servers and others to see if it made any difference but it didn't. I also went to my router's setup page((http://192.168.1.1/)so I could manually add the previously mentioned DNS servers. I finally decided to revert back to my old DNS list. To disable using the Comodo DNS servers I did the following:Wireless Network Connection Properties-> Internet Protocol Ver 4 (TCP/IPv4)-> Properties -> Select "Obtain DNS server address automatically"I also went into to my router's setup page (http://192.168.1.1/) to set my DNS list to zeros so that I can get back my default ISP's DNS servers (207.69.188.185,186,187). However, website loading is still sluggish.I thought the issue might just be a temporary hiccup from my ISP but my roommate doesn't have these issues. We tried a speed test at dslreports.com and the results were weird. On my laptop the results were 8500+ Kb/s with a 279ms latency. I was 10 ft away from my router.

I just got the RV042G today. I found the router can only accept 100000 Kbit/sec as bandwith, which is 100Mps only. According to the specification, it should have 1000Mps WAN. I have a internet link of 1000Mps, which is now limited by this router.

Since I've bought my RV042 CISCO (v3 hardware, firmware v4.1.1.01-sp Dec 6 2011 20:03:18) i wasn't able to let it work properly with my two DSL network lines. I explain. I got 2 DSL network:
1- PPPoE with authentication (MTU setted as auto) with upstream speed 4Mbit/S and downstream speed 5Mbit/s
2- Direct line with static IP with upstream speed 7Mbit/S and downstream speed 1Mbit/s
I was never able to SUM the two WAN using the LOAD BALANCE set. I tried all combinations:
DSL 1 in WAN 1 or in WAN 2
DSL 2 in WAN 2 or in WAN 1
I've tested all type of speeds in WAN SPEED in Web Management
it seems that for some kind of reason it takes the upstream speed i can set in web management as the default value on which it decides to use the other WAN. When i set low upstream bandwidth for DSL 2 it's able to sum the down streams of both WANs but not the up streams.
I wasn't ever able to sum the up streams? How does it work?

I have an RV220W which I would like to set bandwidth limiting on. When we upload files to yousendit or an FTP server, it saturates the connection and essentially stops any other traffic until the upload is finished. Looking at the manual, it looks like it should do this, but does not seem clear to me.

setting up Rate Control in Bandwidth Management. It doesn't seem to work at all. I knew from some other Posts that I need to have IPS on and I do.. Is there something else I need to do.
My users are connected wirelessly to the router through three different SSIDs and I have 3 VLANS. I need to set some limitations on two of the LANS.

My home network has two routers. My setup is...modem to router 1, then router 1 to router 2. is there a way to track the bandwidth usage on the two routers. My ISP says that I'm going over my bandwidth allowance and that's because in my household, we are hardcore gamers, netflix, and internet users. Router 2 belongs to my sister-in-law, and router 1 is mine. But I want to know which and more importantly, "WHO" is using more of the bandwidth.

I have a RVS4000 hardware v2 with firmware 2.0.2.7. I have a DSL modem in bridge mode and have the router set to PPPoE. Everything works fine except I want to use QOS which doesn't work fine. I have some vonage boxes set up on a switch set to port 1 trust mode is set to port and level 4 for highest priority. Port 2 I have on another switch set to priority 3. I tried turning bandwidth mangement on which doesn't seem to work at all so I don't even know if they QOS is even working. I set the max down stream and upstream provided after running a number of speed tests and setting it a little lower than my worst speed results. Once I did that I set up a rule for all traffic for rate control and set them just below the min and max I put in for isp bandwidth. I set the ip range from 192.168.1.100-190 this will cover anything that dhcp hands out and I also have a few statics set up on 192.168.1.180 and 181. However after enabling it I ran some speed tests and I still get full speed and the rules seem to be getting ignored.

I currently have the following network structure, which work fine:
The only bandwidth management configuration I did in the Cisco E1000 router is to set the QOS, giving high priority to the 5 SIP Phones mac addresses.
The problem: I purchased a Small Business Cisco router RV016 because the company keep expanding so they will add more SIP Phones and PCs. In the new router configurations, there is no way to do like I did on the E1000 I just want to be able to set high priority to the SIP Phones mac addresses.
What happens when I use the new router (RV016) is that, sometime you dial a number and the phone do a busy signal and indicate "Call failed" or sometime people call in and there is only 3 phones ringing.
I tried port forwarding.. disabling firewall.. SPI.. I tried access rule.. whatever I do doesn't fix the issue.
When I put the Cisco E1000 back everything goes well.
I'm using the latest firmware: RV0XX-v4.1.1.01-sp.bin

I need to know exactly how much bandwidth my service provider is giving me throught an MPLS network. My providers tells me that I am capped at 5 mbps with 4 T1 circuits but I believe that I am receiving 6 mbps.
I have a remote site in Dallas with a 2850 and another site as a head end in Michiagan which is a 7206 router.
What exactly can I do during non-business to test to see what the bandwidth is between the 2 locations? Is there some type of command that I can run on the router to test this?
