Cisco Routers :: WRVS4400N Wireless Client Has No Internet Access
Jul 18, 2012
I recently purchased a WRVS4400N security router and have got a strange problem with it. I set it up as my main router and connected two computers (a desktop and a server) using DHCP. They both work fine, internet is as fast as it should be, no problems whatsoever. However, when I setup the Wifi SSID (whatever security options I use, same with open/wpa/wpa2) and connect my laptop to it. It is allocated a IP address and windows even says that there is an internet connection. As soon as I try to do anything though, I am dropped. Try to ping an outside server, failure and dropped. Open IE, failure and dropped. I cannot even access my local server connected by wire to the router.If I connect the laptop via a cable to the router everything works, and it continues to work when I unplug it. So this means that right now I walk over to the router and plug my laptop in for 3 seconds before I unplug it and then use the wifi for a couple of hours without any problem. But as soon as I try to turn on my wireless Logitech SqueezeBox or wireless printer, they fail and take my laptop with it..
I have:reset the router, used both firmware 2.0.2.1 and 2.0.1.3 and done a factory reset.Tried to move the router close to the laptop, no difference.

After updating the firmware of my WRVS4400N from V 2.0.1.3 to 2.0.2.1 all traffic was blocked for all machines, even some not included in the list of PCs. As the log was showing that all traffic was blocked by access policies, I disabled the only rule I had (blocking access to some sites to some MAC address list) and everything worked fine.I tried creating a new, simpler rule but after activation it blocked again all traffic for all the LAN.After many trials, I decided to roll back to the previous V2.0.1.3 which solved this problem.

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

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?

Quick VPN and have not had any success connecting with our router. Below is my components info. Cisco router: WRVS4400N, Firmware V2.0.0.7. The router is behind a Comcast SMC business gateway modem Remote computer: Window 7 Ultimate 64 bit
I downloaded the Quick VPN client 1.4.2.1, and installed the client successfully but cannot connect using the VPN Client Account that I had set up in the router. Below are several questions that I hope to understand.
1) Do I need to configure specific ports for VPN in the Comcast gateway firewall?
2) What IP address do I put in the Quick VPN client profile when I connect remotely? The WRVS4400N modem shows 2 IP addresses in the Status:
DNS1: 68.xx.xx.176
DNS2: 68.xx.xx.132
Are these the IP that go into the "Server Address" on the Quick VPN client profile? and which one of the two? or do I use the static WAN IP address provided by my Comcast account?
3) In the Quick VPN client window, what is the "Use Remote DNS Server" mean?
4) Do I need to create a client certificate from the WRVS4400N for the client
5) Is there any setup needed for the remote firewall (if the client is behind a home wireless router and modem, for example)?

I just bought a WRVS4400N last week to replace my existing LinkSys WRH54G. To my disappointment, I now have a problem that this router halts everytime any eMule/P2P client is connected for more than 15~30 minutes, no matter the uPNP is enabled or not, When it halts, the only thing to get it work is to unplug its power cable then back on. So, I then upgraded its firmware from 2.0.1.3 to 2.0.2.1, but the problem still persists. However, the truth is that this problem never happened on my WRH54G

When clients connect wirelessly to the WRVS4400N they successfully get a DHCP address from the Windows 2008 server. After they have the address they can no longer access the server. It cannot be pinged, no drives can be mapped and internet access fails because the same server is running DNS. The WRVS4400N is setup for DCHP relay to the server. Wired clients do not have this problem. Wireless clients that connect to a secondary WAP on the same LAN also do not experience this problem. I have updated the router to the latest firmware version, reset it to factory defaults and reconfigured from scratch. Turning the server firewall off has not made any difference either. I have been able to bypass the internet problem by adding a second external DNS server in the DHCP scope options.

I am using WRVS4400N in our company as a AP only. Before some time, when majority of wireless clients were computers, everything worked fine. But now, when mobile devices are in majority, something strange is happening. While portable computers still work fine, smart phone and tablet have extreme problems.
Although there is indicator that WiFi is connected and signal is strong, there is no guarantee that there is an internet access. Most of the times there is none. You can fix this by simply disconnecting and connecting WiFi on mobile device, but after a while, internet will be inaccessible again. Or you can wait and eventually you'll get to the internet access again.

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.

My ip address of my WRVS4400N changes every so often. when i use the ip assigned to connect remotely, it works until the ip is re-assigned through dhcp. I know there is a way around this bu ysing a name or something. I just don't know how to set that up.

I have a WRVS4400n and a CentOS server that I need to enable a SSH access to from WAN. I created a single port forward rule to open port 22 and forward to server (which address is 192.168.41.3) However ssh connect doesn't happen, the command "ssh user@{external_IP}" times out after 20 seconds. If I connect my server directly to modem through outside interface - I have no problems connecting to it. Once it's behind router - no luck. I even added same rule for UDP, not sure if it's needed, but it definitely didn't hepl. The router is on firmware version 2.0.1.3, version on a bottom is 2.

I have a WRVS4400N, and need to apply access control to an IPSec tunnel that terminates at a client site, but can't seem to make the device comply.
I can configure ACLs on their device for the LAN to restrict packets coming back into my network, and can restrict packets outbound frm my LAN but that is hardly a secure method of doing this in my opinion.

Although I hasten to point out that I have owned and used an 'IBM' type PC since 1988 and have always managed to get things configured correctly until NOW!
Apart from the last time I tried to use a Linksys product. I had the WRVS4400N recommended to us by a friend as we run a small FTP server to share promotional materials amongst sales operatives around the world, wanted to protect it from intrusion and was told that a Cisco Linksys product with a VPN was the way to go.
I duly purchased a WRVS440N and have been trying to log into the admin console via both browsers (IE9 and Google Chrome) that are installed on a laptop running Win7 which in turn is the only thing connected to the stated device via ethernet port 1... I have tried accessing it via http://192.168.1.1 and have even tried a suggestion from another forum to try https://192.168.1.1 - this only results in my being told that the address does not have a trusted certificate and I even tried every suggested workaround...
I have tried all kinds of reset periods from 10 seconds to a minute, both hot and cold and each time the result is the same - I type in 'admin' and 'admin' in the appropriate boxes and the dialogue box continues to return to the browser window with empty fields...
The shame is that I have managed to re-flash a BT Voyager 190 ethernet modem successfully with DynaLink v3.29a firmware (which allows it to be used with any ISP besides AOL [for whom this modem was solely intended]) and can set it up as a DHCP server, non-DHCP with a single link to another server or non-DHCP and no link.... The point is the modem works... I'm using it right now to type this! We have a single static IP from our ISP and the BT modem is working just fine (as is the TP-Link wireless modem/router that the WRVS4400N was intended to replace)... there are other options in it's firmware for port forwarding, etc and I'm convinced that it wil be adequate for use in conjunction with the WRVS4400N.
I have to concede that the WRVS4400N was not sold to us as NIB; it was sold as re-conditioned and was shipped to or via Ingram Micro Distribution from Cisco Systems, Veldweg 3, Herkenbosch 6075 NL (Holland) via UPS on or about the 31st of July, 2012... there is a shipping label on the original packaging that tells me that so it has in fact been back to Cisco at some point and for some reason.

I have a Cisco WRVS4400N on the latest firmware and I have just had my Virgin internet connection upgraded to the 100Mb. Once i thought it was upgraded i checked with a broadband speed test and it came back as 15Mb download and 5Mb upload. Before i rang Virgin i thought i'd check with a direct connection from my pc straight to the modem. Ran the speed test and it came back as 100Mb download and 5Mb upload. I thought the best thing to do is restore my settings back to factory and its still the same.

Recently I upgraded my Internet speed at the ISP from 10Mbps to 25Mbps and the problem is that I am measuring only 15Mbps using [URL]On the day when the tech came out to install the new DSL modem, he noticed the difference and as part of troubleshooting, he bypassed the Linksys router and voila the net speed measured 25Mbps using speedtest.net.So, why my Linksys WRVS4400N V1.1.13 acts like a bottleneck in this case? I didn't have this problem at the speed of 10Mbps. The upload speed is OK, it is 5Mbs with or without the DSL modem.

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 recently bought a new Cisco WRVS4400N router for our network which has 19 computers connected to a 24 port switch. We are currently using a D-Link router and are upgrading to the Cisco router. The problem I am having is as soon as I connect one of our servers or the 24 port switch to the Cisco router I can no longer access the internet or login on the network, I also cannot access the routers setup from either server. If I connect the router to just a stand alone computer I can access the setup and change things but as soon as I connect the server or 24 port switch everything dies (all lights are still green on the router though so everything is connected).

Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : TL-WR702N
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version : 4.18.114 Build 130314 Rel.39604n
ISP :
I've setup my nano router in client mode and successfully connected it to my existing wireless network by manually setting it's IP address to 192.168.1.2. The existing router has the IP address 192.168.1.1.
I know this has worked as I'm able to access the web management page from any computer in the house by visiting the IP address 192.168.1.2. So far so good.
However, my problem is that the nano router cannot speak to the internet. If I login to the web management page and go to diagnostics, I can ping every other device on the network fine, but I can't ping anything outside the network (e.g. 8.8.8.8 or [URL].
I've tried in vain to get this setup correctly, all I can assume is that the nano router isn't correctly determining that the existing router (192.168.1.1) is where it should be routing all external requests and they're just getting lost, but there's no configuration for that on the web management pages.

I purchased a RV042 V03 router with firmware version 4.1.1.01-sp (Dec 6 2011 20:03:18) and I need to create a VPN connection through a remote client. I added a new tunnel in the "Client to Gateway" section, so I created a VPN client access, but connecting remotely by the QuickVPN Client after the connection and testing of the network I get the error "the remote gateway is not respondig, do you want to wait?" and I'm not able to establish a connection to the network. I can provide remote access directly to the router and the IP address to connect remotely.

Very recently, we had implemented Site-to-Site VPN tunnel between two Linksys RV042 4-port VPN routers. Everybody in our remote site is accessing and sharing the data through this tunnel and it is working fine.
Now, we have a plan to implement the same for our mobile clients also. For this, we had followed all the basic configuration procedures and user got connected to Quick VPN tunnel. Here is a problem we had observed. The mobile client user is connected to the tunnel, but unable to access the office LAN from the PC.

I have installed a WRVS4400N router in a client's office. When laptops are plugged into the router everything works fine. When they are attached via the wireless signal it drops frequently. WPA personal is being used to encrypt. I have also installed the latest firmware and am having the same results. What can be done to eliminate the drops?

I have an ongoing problem with my WRVS4400N router. It reboots on it's own when streaming video through a wireless connection (computer, xbox, roku, tv). Once I make a wired conection, it performs flawlessly. The firmware is up to date. I have read some reviews of this router on Amazon stating the same problem, but I expected it to be solved with firmware update. Unfortunately, this was not the case.

I need trouble-shooting wireless network connectivity issues that arose recently:We use a Comcast modem and two WRVS4400N's as wireless routers/wireless access points.We recently got our comcast service upgraded to 100/20 and also got rid of our static ip address. As a result (I think there must be a sort of causal relationship here, but I'm not sure what it is) we can no longer connect to the internet using our wireless networks. We can connect to the wireless network, but have "No Internet Access."

I have several wired and wireless devices connected to the router which is running the latest firmware (2.0.2.1) and I have this issue with all wireless devices. The router is configured for B/G/N Mixed, Channel 6, and to broadcast the SSID. Security Mode is WPA2-Personal w/ key renewal set to 3600. Connection control is configured to allow only the desired MAC addresses. All wireless clients are configured for DHCP (as are some of the wired clients that do not have this issue). I have tried various setting changes over time, none of which have resolved the issue.
What I have determined, and may be useful, is that each time this occurs I am unable to ping the router from the client and have no connectivity to the internet or other devices on the network. If I ping the WAP address (reserved for internal use address) I get a response and then connectivity is always restored after doing so. In other words, I ping 192.168.1.1 and get no response, immediately ping 192.168.1.2 and get a response, then immediately ping 192.168.1.1 and now get a response and connectivity is restored. If I skip the first step and just ping the reserved address followed by the router address result is always the same. It would appear the issue is between the the two router addresses.
Prior to owning this router I had a Linksys BEFSX41 that I had for about 7-8 years and a WAP54G I had for about 5, both of which still worked and I never had this issue with my wireless clients. I went to this router for the increased performance and am very happy with that aspect, however this issue is unacceptable.

We have an office with about 10 PCs, and several other network devices (smartphones, printers, etc). Some PCs and printers are wired, some are not. About two weeks ago, some (6) of the wireless devices lost connectivity. Since then, some (4) of the devices have also recovered normal connectivity.
As of right now, there are two computers, a laptop and a desktop, that cannot use the wireless network. They see the wireless network, connect to it, receive an IP via DHCP properly, have correct DNS servers listed in ipconfig, but they can't ping the router, use the intranet, or internet.

I have a RV042 and have set it up for VPN Client access using the QuickVPN client to connect my remote users. I discovered today that I cannot have two users connect in at the same time. Both users are in the same remote office. They can connect individually with no problem but if one is connected and the other tries connect also the second user gets a message the gateway is not responding. They are both running Win XP PRo SP3.

What would be an acceptable number of wireless connections to a WRVS4400N router? I'm working in the IT department for a new company, and one of the offices complains that using VoIP and doing large file transfers are constantly a problem. They are all connecting wirelessly to the WRVS4400N. I managed to vpn in and connect to the web interface of the router, and it shows that there are 30 devices connected wirelessly to it. However, when people plug into the wall jack VoIP and data seem to work fine.I can't find any info on what a best practice would be for number of wireless connections to the router. There's no Vlans setup on it from what I can tell, so that may be my next step, to separate data and voice traffic.
