Cisco Routers :: WRVS4400N Only Getting 26mbps Out Of 50mbps ISP
Feb 21, 2012
I have a E3000 router (wireless N and gigabit ports) and a 50mbps download/8mbps upload Internet connection with machines attached directly to the ethernet ports on the E3000 I can get full speed 50mbps download doing speedtest
now I have a cisco WRVS4400N connected to the E3000s etherenet port going to the WAN port of the WRS4400N.
I'm able to get intnet access on my device/computers fine. Problem is that when I did a speed test from devices attached to the Cisco WRS4400N router my max download speed is only 26mbps out of the 50mbps (it's not network congestion as I did the same test from devices attached to the E3000 and I can get full 50mbps)
Is there any setting on the WRVS4400N that might speed things along? or is the WAN port maxing out the download speed at 26mbps?
I have a ISR 891 (no-wifi) router that I have been using on a 20Mbps x 20Mbps fiber circuit. It was been performing just fine. I am upgrading the curcuit to 50Mbps x 50Mbps soon, and I wanted to check if this router can handle that much load.
I don't do anything fancy with the router, just plain old routing (I have a firewall behind it).
Do you think the 891 can handle 50Mbps up/down, and if not what would you recommend for this new setup of 50x50Mbps.
I have used DIR-655 (HW:B1 FIRM: 2.00NA) with Motorola SB6120 for sometime without any incidents. My dl speed usually is around 26mbps. Lately, it happens twice that the dl speed drop to 10mbps. If I connect the SB6120 directly to my PC, the dl speed is 30mbps. Is my DIR-655 dead?
So lately my internet has been painstakingly slow, Youtube videos dont load, Web Pages take FOREVER, its killing me. So I ran some speed tests This is wireless over my router. (WRT300N (Yes i know its old))
And this is direct connetion from my modem this really just makes me want to never use the internet again.
Right out of the box, the WRVS4400N [firmware v2.0.1.3] I just purchased says the WAN interface is DOWN; and it simply will not obtain an IP address from the Arris TM602G cable modem it is attached to. Internet still runs great on the old WRT54G. Is this WRVS4400 DOA? Or is there some arcane setting the quickstart guide overlooks? OR?
I'll just use the 4400n to provide DHCP to my two VLANs and then a new problem cropped up. I am unable to add a default route to the 4400n's DHCP server. It uses the 4400n's vlan IP as the default route. What I'm trying to ultimately achieve is to configure the 4400n as an access point for our "private" network on vlan1 and also "guest" access to the internet on vlan2.
I'm having problems trying to establish a IP Sec tunnel from the office to home. All of our machines are Macs so I have been using the directions described in "How to create an IP Sec tunnel for MAC Clients, A QVPN alternative" but I still can't get it to work. My setup is as follows:
The office is connected to the outside world through a MODEM (Sagemcom 2864 Connection Hub). This MODEM is also a wireless router. It's DHCP server provides addresses 192.168.2.x.The WRVS4400N's WAN port is connected to one of the LAN ports on the MODEM. It's IP address from the MODEM is 192.168.2.x. The WRVS4400N provides addresses 192.168.21.x to devices connected to it.We have a DynDNS account and are using the DDNS client on the WRVS4400N router to connect to it.At home, we have a DIR-655 router with IP Sec Passthru enabled. The router provides IP addresses 192.168.1.x for all devices connected to it. I am fairly sure there are no issues with the router setup at home since I am able to VPN into the office of my full-time job without any problems. I have tried just about everything I can think of but have not been able to get this to work. setting up the Local and Remote Group Settings on the WRVS4400N and the IP address settings in IP Securitas?
Ive setup a few WRVS4400N over the past 6 months, and have been receiving the below message from some of them every couple of hours.What does the message indicate?
I have successfully got QuickVPN working from Windows 7 64bit into my WRVS4400n. The router is sat behind another router/modem (Belkin) as the UK uses PPPoA and the WRVS4400n doesn't.So I set up DMZ and changed the DHCP to always allocate 10.x.x.2 on the Belkin which is the WAN side for the WRVS4400n as it is the only thing attached.I have now noticed, and I'm not sure whether it was the case before, that the DNS that the WRVS4400 is showing is the LAN address for the Belkin Modem/Router (10.x.x.1), not 192.x.x.1 for the WRVS4400n itself. I assumed setting the Static DNS 1 on the WRVS4400n would do it, but it didn't?When I connect into the network with QuickVPN, the computer names do not show even though I have selected the option in QuickVPN?
I have 2 WRVS4400N's available to be. One is running my network and security connected to my WAN.I want to use the other one stricly as a switch or even adding wireless repeat of my current wireless LAN.
Recently installed a WRVS4400N router on my home network. Prior to that I was using the wireless built into my FIOS router. I wanted something more secure so I went with the WRVS4400N. I turned off the FIOS wireless and am only using the cisco wireless.
Im having intermittent issues with the wireless. I have many things hooked up to my wireless including a HP printer and a Sonos system. Most of the time if I just open my ipad I cannot see anything else on my network including the printer. If I try to see the Sonos system can cannot, sometimes I can open the app on my iphone and then I can see it.
Sometimes I can see the printer and sometimes I cant. Sometimes when I do see it and then print to it, it will be gone before it even prints. I don’t seem to have any issues thru the LAN connections.
Also, ive noticed that the wifi is much slower than the old FIOS box.
FYI, when I remove the cisco and fire back up the FIOS wifi I don’t have any problems at all at any time. And its much faster.
I have tried channel 6, 11 and auto. Also turned off IPC and still no change.
I have a gateway to gateway vpn (home-office) working fine for almost an year btw 2 wrvs4400n routers, This morning, the VPN tunnel was down. I clicked "Connect" from the web based interface, but it does not reconnect.
I tried setting up a new tunnel using the VPN setup wizard, but it says it can't connect to the remote router. Which is strange, since I can ping there normally.
I'm having a heck of a time connecting the WRVS4400N VPN to another WRVS4400N VPN. both of the routers have the current firmware version V2.0.2.1: Router 1 is below, and router 2 has the matching configuration with as it should be the local group being that routers local information and the remote crew set up being router ones information. the status is up on both of the routers, but I'm unable to ping the remote gateway or any device behind it.[code]
After a few months of trouble-free ... the Cisco WRVS4400N V2 stopped working. i have tried to reset by holding the reset button for 30 seconds ... but nothing changes the red DIAG light remains on at all times
i have also tried two different versions of the Firmware Rescue Utility but all i get is "unable to scan"
This is a new device, just initially installed about a week ago. I updated to the latest firmware. We have iphones, ipads, and Samsung Galaxy smartphones all trying to connect to this WAP at this office, but cannot seem to connect. If I power cycle the WAP, we can connect for about 5 min, then it loses it and cannot connect again. I have strong signal, device says "connecting" then immediately "disconnected"... does this on loop forever.WPA/WPA2 PSK.I don't know what to do. About to go buy an Apple WAP.
My WRVS4400N is not letting my VPN client through the router. I have checked the passthrough boxes for all 3 protocols. I have port range forwarding for my VPN connections to my SBS2008 box on port 1723.
I have a Linksys E4500 as the main router and would like to use the WRVS4400N as a bridge to extend the range of my network and also attach a NAS to it. Is this possible? I've been trying different options but have been unsuccessful.
Looking for a working Cisco VPN client for Windows 7. There seems to be an availabel download for a ver 5, but you have to be a reseller etc.. Where do I download the Windows 7 supported VPN client to access my WRVS4400N router? If none, should I use 3rd party - IF yes to 3rd party, which one would you suggest?
I bought a WRVS400N v2 to be used as an access point. Currently it is hooked up on my switch via a trunk port and is able to communicate with my gateway. Whenever I try to access an IP subnet other then the local IP address of the WRVS, I get a network unreachable error. To fix this for my local networks, I added the appropriate static route to cover my local LANs and that seems to work now. I tried to add route 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 using the web interface for internet access, but somehow it does not recognize this as a default route (quad zero!?). Does any know how I can set the default gateway in this router? Maybe, but hopefully not, I have to use the WAN port to create some kind of uplink and use one of the LAN ports to connect using the trunk port and route traffic for the clients over the WAN port .
I have three locations using the linksys wrvs4400n router with IPSec VPNS. They all work fine and point back to a Server2003. I just added a fourth location with the same router but this new router has firmware v2.x, where the others have firmware v1.x. When I connected the new router into the VPN network, it caused the other tunnels to go down. When I take the new router with firmware v2.x offline, everything else seems to work fine.
Can the v2.x firmware cause the other VPNS on v1.x firmware to go down and not work properly? Do I need to upgrade the firmware so all 4 linksys wrvs4400n routers are operating the same version number so not to cause the tunnels to disconnect?
I have looked through the forum for answers to my problem, but does not look like I'll find it.The problem: Router randomly freezes.When this happens:No IP/DNS,No response to ping,No contact at all (wifi or cable),Works fine after reboot for some time.
after being able to see the cctv on the local network and remotely, we are simply not able to connect remotely again. This happens several hours after leaving site. The clients ip seems to be unchanged from last time, and we do get a " resource online but isn't responding to connections attempts" message from IE8. The ports have never actually shown as open from online port verification sites, but again, we were able to see the cams via 3g and from another town just fine.And we can see them on the locally. I'm convinced it has to be some setting on the router relevant to port forwarding.
We need to update the firmware for a small business router WRVS4400N. Unfortunately, I can't even burn the ISO file to CD after downloading it as instructed. I get the following error message: "The selected disk image file Isn't valid." I'm using a Windows 7 Ultimate computer.
I downloaded the proper firmware update for my version V2.0.1.3 router several times, but each time I get the same message.
The main reason we purchased this router for our business for for the extra layer of protection with ProtectLink. It has been over two years now, and we still have not got our ProtectLink service installed because we are unable to install the service until the firmware is updated.
After doing some research online, we found-out that the ISO file needs to be padded to 2 Kb in order to be valid for burning. The ISO firmware file you provide for this update is not according to my calculations. We have no way of converting the file myself and don't know what to do about this situation.
We are extremely taken-back at the fact that I must submit my issue here on a forum rather than address the issue directly to Cisco Support. We are very disappointed with Cisco support as they appear to want to charge additional money just to get an initial shipped-problem remedied. You would think that the company that essential built the internet infrastructure would be more considerate to their customers. We will never purchase another Cisco product given this level of terrible support.
I have a problem with new WRVS4400N router.after connected it to my infrastructure modem and configured its WAN configuration with my ISP supplier, ISP see that I'm connected, I see that I'm connected, get an EXCELLENT link and about 70M link speed.Yet no able to access the web when trying to do so from a different devices ( TABLET, LAPTOP) or different connections ( WiFi , Ethernet cable).when I'm connected directly to my infrastructure modem, access to web is successful.in addition, when previous router ( EDIMAX ) that was connected also and tried, access to web was successful.
I have a Cisco WRVS4400N Gigabit Router. I recently upgraded my Internet service to 50MB download speed. When I connect directly to the cable modem and run a speed test, using speedtest.net, I get 59MB download speed consistently. When I connect the modem to the router and plug into one of the 4 ports the speed is cut in less than half. The max speed is cut to between 23-24 MB download speeds. I have tried this via wireless as well with the same result.
Apple AirPlay won't work on AppleTV (from neither computer nor iPhone) with my new Cisco small busines router WRVS4400N. It was working just fine on old consumer level linksys router. I have spent 3 hours with Apple support to no avail. Apple TV works fine on internet functions (netflix, YouTube, etc.) and I can play music and videos from the cloud, but iPhone and computer can't connect to AppleTV even though the icons appear in iPhone and Computer... just can't establish a connection.
I've deployed a WRVS4400N router at one of my clients, however I'm unable to access resources on his network via DNS. I was hoping to use the router for DNS resolution, however when I connect via VPN, I can only connect to shares via IP address.
I am connected with qvpn, I can log in to the router bios remotely, but when I try to map the network drive from my remote location it does not work.I can detect the machine on the network, but it will not go further and tells me that "said IP was found but could not locate G". Does this mean it is behind a firewall on server side and that I need to create a rule to allow the incoming traffic? Or could it be something else.
I have a problem setting up a VPN between a local office and a head office some distance away.Here at our local office, we have a Cisco WRVS4400N Small Business device.At the head office they have a Cisco ASA Device.We need to set up a point-to-point VPN and I have no idea how to do this with these devices.To make matters worse, the resource I have at the other end in an unknown entity who also does not seem to have much experience with this.Is there any type of step-by-step guide to such a configuration?
I have tired different repeaters. First the WAP4410N. Especially in WDS mode it locks the router up. I have to restart it.Out of desperation I bought RE1000 that says it works with any "N" device. It also locked up after successfully configuring it.WRSV4400n v2
we're planning a small private network for our holiday appartments. Therefore we get a Cisco Small Buisiness Switch SG200-18 from a friend. We have created 6 diffrent VLANs on it. But it seems that we need a router do to the routing of our cable connection to the WAN. Is it possible to connect the WRVS4400N to that switch and configure multiple subnets for that vlans? Or how can i do that? I have add a drawing for better understanding.
