Cisco Routers :: WRVS4400N Router Vlans Not Working
May 28, 2012
the objective is to set up 2 vlans, one of which is a wireless access point connecting to our company network which is behind our firewall. the other is a wireless access point for admins and selct people to connect directly to the internet, bypasing all network devices and firewall. i am unable to get tech support unless i buy a contract for $800. I currently have it working and vlans setup but they both hook into the company network.
I've been searching high and low and although I've found many results of people having this same exact problem there doesn't seem to be a fix, or at least no one was kind enough to post one. I have many vlans but the 3 in question are 10, 20, 30.
-10 is for my laptops and desktops with an ip range of 192.168.10.10 - 192.168.10.50. -20 is my home automation network with an orange of 192.168.20.20 - 192.168.20.150 -30 is my guest network with a orange of 192.168.30.84 - 192.168.30.89
I have a dell powerconnect configured with vlans as my core switch. I trunked a port on the switch assigning 3 vlans (10,20,30) and connected it to port 1 on the wrvs4400N. On the wrvs4400 I trunked port 1 tagging vlan 10,20,30. For some reason vlan 1 is untagged on port 1 and I don't know why. I also have a router connected to the powerconnect. Of the 3 vlans I mentioned vlan 10 and vlan 30 are the only ones with interfaces on the router. Vlan 20 is an internal network with a separate router and until I figure this out that router is physically turned off. Also the router currently turned on has no routes configured to connect my vlans. Currently there is no configured way to jump vlans.
No matter what ssid I connect to I get a dhcp response from vlan 10. all my test indicates that I'm actually on vlan 10. I get internet and I can hit all devices on vlan 10. If I connect to ssid guest and change my ip address to match vlan 30 I can not ping the gateway for vlan 30 and I have no internet access. Some times I get something different. Sometimes I get an ip address from vlan 1 on the powerconnect. If I renew my ip address then I'll grab one from vlan 10 but I should be getting one from 30 or none at all for vlan 20. The absolute crazy part is my droid sometimes gets a 192.168.4.x ip address. I don't have a 192.168.4.x network or dhcp scope anywhere on my network! If I physically plug into a port on the power connect I get to the correct network 10 out of 10 times. If I configure vlans on the other 3 ports on the wrvs4400 and physically plug in, I get to the correct network 10 out of 10 times. I've reset to factory a few times and I've been all inside and out of the wrvs4400. I have no clue what could be wrong with this thing.
After a long effort I managed to get my WRVS4400N to work and provide a stable WLAN/LAN and to define all network devices in my home office. It is running the latest firmware (2.0.1).
I created a seperate SSID and a vlan for it (vlan ID is 3 and IP is 192.168.1.xxx while the default vlan IP is 192.168.0.xxx).
My plan is to use that SSID/vlan for the kids and block some bad content for them via the router there.
I want to make a ACL for that vlan but in the computer list option I can only specify ranges in the default VLAN segment (192.168.0.xxx) while in practice I need the 192.168.1.xxx segment.
I can't switch to .0.xxx as some devices are hard wired to be .1.xxx on my network.
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.
So got an Xbox 360 slim and if I try to connect to route with WPA2 if fails. If I change to WPA or set up a second SSID with WPA it connects and works fine.If I connect Xbox to another router with WPA2 it works fine.Same results picking AES or TKIP for security type.The xbox is used in a break room and really don't like the fact that I need to have another ssid and it be less secure, esp as WPA2 has been out long enough this shouldn't be an issue. I test 4 other routers and WPA2 and xbox all work fine but not this one but this is the one I have to use due to feature needs.
I use RDP extensively on my LAN to use and manage 4 PCs running Win XP or Win7. My consumer-grade Cisco Linksys WRT610n crapped out after less than 2 years, so I thought I'd try the Cisco WRVS4400N to gain extra features like VPN. I have not enabled anything new on the router except for adding a second wireless SSID for guest use, although no bandwidth management or VLANs have been set up yet. Firmware version is 2.0.0.8.Since installing this router I have been unable to use Windows RDP on ANY of my computers on the LAN, whether I use the machine name or the IP address. I can ping every device on my network - print servers, NAS boxes, PCs, but no RDP. WHAT'S GOING ON?
I am trying to create an IAP for a single computer based on it's MAC address. I want to block certain keywords and websites 24/7. When I setup the IAP as number 1, I add the MAC address of the computer in question. I then Select Allow and choose Everyday and 24 Hours. I type in the forbidden domains and click add after each one. I type in the keywords and click add after each one. After I click on Save, all of my computers on the network lose internet access.
I have WRVS4400N VPN Version 2, firmware version 2.0.2.1
I have the router for over two years, Present Firmware is V2.0.1.3, I have Polycom phone connected to the router using 8 x 8 VOIP service. The phone was working fine untill yesterday. 8 x 8 tech support suggested getting a different router. I have the same router at home and tried the same phone on my home router - it worked. So, the problem is not the phone but int he router. I tried to call Cisco tech support but found out that the warranty support expired and I need to buy a support plan. Called to buy the support, and gave up after an hours on hold. Left message.
I've been configured my device to forward FTP service to my server, however, I can't access this service outside from my network. I used Single Port Forward and not worked, after, I've used Port Range Forwarding starting in 20 to 21 and not work again.I've sniffed my computer and I've found just 3 outsides packages without response.I've tried with directly IP ADDR and DYNDNS ADDR, but neither one or other worked.
I've got a WRVS4400N V2 Router that just keeps rebooting itself. It powers up, the red LED stays lit, it gets part way through the boot process and reboots itself. I would like to try to re flash the device, but don't know if this is possible in the condition that it is in.
Just installed a new WRVS4400N router. wireless working. however refuses to let me log back via Ethernet cable in at URL given me 403 Forbidden, Access Denies, Management via WLAN is not allowed. Was able to reset and noe braodcasting unsecured "cisco b" signal, but no way to get into router and set up security. unsure what I have done.
I have a conflict with my satellite Internet connection between the modem and router IP addresses. I also somehow entered a password for the router which I now cannot duplicate. received a request for additional information which I responded to in September. I attempted to follow-up in October again, but I have not received any reply since the first one on August 11, 2011.
I live in a house of about 30 tenants. The place uses a cisco WRVS4400N router. It seems that my computer gets assigned a temporary ip automatically and then there will be times when I get "kicked out" and my computer doesn't get connected to the internet. Sometimes for few minutes and sometimes for hours.
No idea what happens there but could be that there are no ips left to assign to my computer and someone else gets the ip address.Anyway I'm trying to find out if I can configure my computer with a static ip.
The maximum number of dhcp users was changed from 50 to 100 by me. IDK if that means that I can assign a static ip from 1 to 100 but say I pick a number 160 so the ip would be xxx.xxx.x.160.
1. What are the steps I have to undertake to configure my computer on the router page? What info. do I have to modify?
2. After I modify settings on the router page, do I have to change settings on my computer?
i'm having troubles with a DHCP server, which is unable to give IPs to hosts that are on a different VLAN than the server.I have this little scenario, one L3 switch (SGE2010-48 without PoE) with 7 different VLANs configured in[CODE]
How to get vlans working properly between sub-interfaces on a ASA and a trunk port on a switch.There seems to be issue with the VLAN's being assigned to the correct VLAN and this information being properly sent to the ASA over the trunk.
We seem to be unable to ping most of the interfaces except for one on the switch. Sometimes if we are lucky we are able to ping a host on a different vlan that is on the switch. This seems sparadic at best.
Logs on the ASA show traffic does not seem to be assigned properly to the correct sub interface. We have access rules on the ASA disallowing traffic not part of the same vlan. For example you will see networkA blocked on networkB when it really should be directed through networkA's sub interface.
Any example commands for the ASA and Switch for at least the basic requirements to enable all the VLAN's to communicate properly with the ASA?
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.
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?
