Cisco Wireless :: RV120W DHCP Keeps Dying?
May 12, 2010
My company just purchased this router for my home office for the purpose of connecting to multiple office locations.I put this router on my network at about 6pm, several machines connected to it and and were given IPs.About 5 hours later I powered up another machine and it would not get an IP address until I rebooted the router.This morning at about 5am I rebooted my SIP phone and it would not grab an IP either, not until I rebooted the router.

I've needed to power-cycle my router every 2 hours. Usually it can last 2 weeks before needing to power-cycle (a process I've done for the past 2 or 3 years). This actually happened before for me a couple of months ago, but I did a firmware update along with a reset, and it looked like everything went back to normal.
But last Saturday I had to power-cycle it twice, then it didn't have any problems all day Sunday. But yesterday it went back to needing to be power-cycle it every 2 hours. My computer is physically connected to the router and is working perfectly no problems at all. But my parents use the wireless for their PC and laptop, and I use it for my 360, PS3, and Wii, so having to power-cycle it every 2 hours would be a pain.
I was wondering if this is a sign of the wireless in my router dying and in need of a new one, or is there some possible fixes I can do in order to repair it.
Mixed Mode
Wireless Channel 1
No WPA (Something I'm planning on fixing)

I bought an e4200 about 2 months ago. It worked perfectly for 3 weeks. Then all of the sudden, the 5ghz connection started dropping. Then it's disappeared completely and it would not show up in a network search. Then the 2.4 ghz started going crazy. I reset it completely, that didn't work. I let it sit for half a day, nothing. I sent it back to newegg and got a replacement. When the 2nd one came in, it worked fine until the next day. 5ghz cut out. I called linksys support and they were no luck. I reflashed to 1001 firmware and it mysteriously came back to normal. It was working perfect until today. 3 weeks later. 5ghz went out, and never came back. I reflashed 1001, nothing. Reset, nothing. Flashed the new 1002 firmware, nothing. 2.4ghz still kind of works, but the speed is barely 5mbps. I'm at a freaking loss right now. This was the best performing router I have tried, of all the top models available right now

I need to replace a dying Netgear FWAG114 wireless router, and the E4200 gets good reviews so I've been looking into it. I'm a software developer running 6 servers plus 3 laptops and 5+ other devices (iPad, Wii, Droid phones, BluRay...). I prefer to use a trusted PC list (enter MACs for all trusted devices) rather than WEP or WPA - is this available with the E4200?
I don't need VPN, but I do run a number of web servers, app servers and databases, so port forwarding is important - I notice the E4200 provides port range forwarding and single port forwarding - I assume this replaces the Rules and Services feature in Netgear - right?
Do you see any potential problems, given my needs, in using the E4200?

I moved recently to a rural area and chose to go with midwest-connections Speedwave wireless internet service rather than Hughesnet. Previously had cable ISP. Since moving 5 months ago, we have had 5 different hard failures of our routers. We've used Engenius, Belkin, netgear, all work for a month or so, then die. The ISP says the signal is good to my house, so it must be the router. The obvious question is whats taking them out? I have taken them to work and tried them, and they are truly failed.

I've some troubles connecting my PS3 to my RV120W.Both router and PS3 have latest firmwares. They are connected wireless (distance is about 10 mt, signal is good).PS3 ip is in DMZ (connection doesn't work with only Upnp), and ip fragmentation is enabled.Everything seems to work (NAT type 2), but downloading on PS3 is extremely slow. My ADSL is a 6Mb, download speed on PS3 seems like more than ten times lower (I don't know how to test it..). Plus, downloading a 100 MB patch is almost impossile, cause sooner or later I get an error and i have to restart.Two of my PCs are connected wireless, so I guess wi-fi is not the problem.

I'm trying out the RV120W wireless router with the latest firmware. I have two APs set up with different schedules. However, the router fails to enable the APs as scheduled and I have to cycle the power to get the APs going again.

if you bring your new firmware, please verify the small bug in 'Time Settings': If you choose CET (GMT +1h) AND enable 'daylights saving time' the time goes back 6 hours instead of forward 1 hour.Firmware of RV120W: 1.0.1.3
I'm surprised that CISCO needs such a long time to solve such an issue... I thought I bought the new router from a leading network provider

I just recently replaced an older linksys pre-N router with a RV 120W. I thought this would be a good choice as a more professional router. I installed this router last week and things seemed to be working normally for web browsing, though I was receiving more incomplete pages and broken graphics. Yesterday, I tried to watch a youtube video a friend had sent me and it would not play. I tried several other videos from youtube and other sources with the same result: stalled videos, partial played videos followed by a spinning wheel. It was late, so I figured something was going on with Comcast and went to sleep. This morning, I was trying to download Anti-virus updates. The updates failed multiple times. I then tried some videos again with the same results. I tried downloading .ZIP files from several sources, and while the file completely downloaded, each and every file was corrupted and unusable. Before I called Comcast to complain about my Internet being flaky, I unplugged the Comcast Arris TM502G device from the Cisco router and plugged it directly into my computer fully expecting the problem to persist, but the problem immediately dissapeared. The immediate evidence is that the problem lays with the Cisco Router. It appears that I can't make any changes on the Comcast device as it has a comcast public IP address and does not seem to have any web or telnet interface to change the settings.
- On the Cisco router, I disabled every non-essential service: VLAN, QOS (bandwidth profiles), IPV6, etc
- I updated the FW to the newest version the day I installed the router
- I power cycled the router
- I power cycled the comcast device
I need to resolve this issue as soon as possible, but I'm not sure what to try next, and I'm confused about my support options after trying to navigate Cicso's support pages. It offers live chat, e-mail support, etc, but everything I go into requires a contract number.

I want to know if it is possible to put the cisco small business router rv120w into bridge mode so that I can connect it to a linksys e2500 access point. Is this even possible or am I wasting my time?I have 4 devices connected to the cisco router that I want to be able to bridge to the linksys e2500 which has the internet connection.

I would like to set up a site to site VNP connection between 2 RV120W routers, preferably via IPsec.
The problem is that I would like/have to use a 4G modem router (model TINY) which connects to internet in front of the RV120W (on the local side)
I have no problem with that on the remote site that RV120 connects directly to internet via a public IP address on the WAN port.
Local network 192.168.1/24-----RV120W----192.168.100.1—Tiny---Public IP--------INTERNET
INTERNET--------PublicIP—RV120W—Remote local network 192.168.2/24

I have established a site-to-site VPN from my head office to a remote location. WRVS4400N router is used in the head office and it is in 10.0.1.0/25 private range. RV120W is used in the remote location and its private range is 192.168.0.0/25. We are able to ping and RDP to the head office from the remote location, but unable to do viceversa. A comcast router is also placed before the WRVS440N router at the head office. I need to get communication to both sides through the established site-to-site VPN.

I've a RV120W Cisco ROUTER with last firmware released and I am not able to setup Wake On Lan: It works fine just switched off PC but after some minute (5/10) magic packet don't work. Router forgets address of PC ?
I've set-up Static DHCP with IP and MAC address of PC ?I've setup port forwarding in firewall menu?This setup is OK becuse for few minutes WoL works... but after some time it stops.
There is any setting to make RV120W managing WoL properly.

Upgraded to 1.0.2.6 and all of a sudden SIP devices working over the VPN no longer work. Downgrade to 1.0.1.3 and they work again. My guess is that some ports are blocked over the VPN in 1.0.2.6
I thought the general idea was that firmware ugrades fixed bugs rather than introducing them.
Suggestion for Cisco:- Zip the firmware image downloads, or else have an upgrade process that includes a CRC check, that way at least the poor punter will have an indication if they have been corrupted. I had a subtle memory problem that was corrupting some files. The firmware upload appeared to complete properly and you could log on OK but some of the menu choices resulted in a hang with the "Please wait... the page is being loaded" message. Careful checking of file sizes revealed that the file I was uploading into the router was a few hundred bytes different in size to the one on the website, must have been corrupted during the download. But the upload proceeded normally with no indication of any error. It's a pretty basic safeguard that should be in there as a matter of course with the router performing a CRC check and showing an error if it fails.

I had WRT54G2 and recently switched to an RV120W. I have an Internet accessible camera system connected to my router. Before, this worked fine... there is a dns service (DynDNS.com) that is configured as part of the camera setup. I would then just enter [URL] and I would connect to the cameras. I install the new router (RV120W) and I can no longer connect to the cameras. I do not recall any configuring that I had to perform on the old router.
why the RV120W isn't letting me get to the cameras?

Rx:, recently I have perchase 2 RV120W routers thinking that it must be very easy to setup the site to site vpn. i cannot get my remore office to link to my main office and vice verser.
Scenaro
- I'm using 2 RV120W routers for each site.
- Site A using a subnet of 192.168.10.0 mask 255.255.255.0
- Site B using a subnet of 192.168.11.0 mask 255.255.255.0
I have setup the VPN using the wizard and I got site to site tunnels connected and show as 1/1 Connected (1 user) in the status he IPsec connection status show
--Policy Name: VPNA
--Endpoint : public IP address from my ISP 203.117.222.221
--Packets Tx:145 Rx:0 and Kbytes shows Tx: 29.55 Rx:0
Q1 why I cannot use dynamic DNS naming in the policy setting ? eg: aaa.dyndns.org, I have to use the ip address instead eg: 203.117.222.221
Q2. I cannot connect from Site A to Site B , I can't even do a ping to 192.168.11.1 from Site A. even though it show the Site to site tunnel is coonected.

I've just set up an IPSec VPN between 2 x RV120W which are both behind other router. Here's what we have :
RV120W #1 (192.168.1.254) --- (192.168.1.1) Office Router #1 (PUBLIC IP) --- (((Internet))) --- (PUBLIC IP) Office Router #2 (192.168.2.1) --- RV120W #2 (192.168.2.254)
It works great, tunnel is UP.

[Code]....
Now, I need to be able to reach the server (192.168.1.100) from a PC on LAN #2 with IP 192.168.2.50. So, I've created au static route on Office Router #2 (192.168.2.1) because of course it doesn't know how to reach private subnet 192.168.1.x. My static route looks like this :
192.168.1.0 / 24 (Destination network) --- 192.168.2.254 (Gateway)
...but it doesn't work, no ping. When I do a tracert to server IP (192.168.1.100) from PC on LAN #2 (192.168.2.50), the result is :
1st jump ---> 192.168.2.1
2nd jump --> 192.168.2.254
...and it doesn't go further.

I am currently having issues with connecting to the ethernet through my router. I can confirm this is not a software problem becasue I have tried this on mulitple PCs and I get the same problem. Today I tried connecting my pc to the modem via ethernet and it connected without a problem at all. The router i am currently using is a cisco RV120W and is connected to the modem via the WAN port, -not sure if that has anything to do with it. Things that I have already tried is system restore on the router, unplugging everthing for 1 minute and pluging itin, flushdns and everthing else IP related on CMD. Also I should add my modem is on router mode and my router's network is seprate from the modem, also wireless is workng fine, and I have tried relpacing all ethernet cables to confirm the cables arn't broken. The IP address I recieve on devices on the ethernet is 169.254.x.)

I configured my RV120W (Firmware:1.0.2.6) to count the traffic on my network. I set the monthly limit to 99999 and did not change anything else.So after a few hours, the traffic counter shows 2048 MB for outgoing traffic. This is impossible, because the DSL-connection is too limited in upload to cause this huge outgoing traffic in 6-8 hours. When I reset the counter at night, the next morning the device shows 2048MB again (even if there was no traffic at all, just some clients syncing time with NTP). I did already reset the device to factory defaults and reconfigured everything from scratch.

I need to configure a rv120w in order to make it work at the same time for data and digital tv. The fact is that the set top box for the idtv needs an IP address that will be delivered directly from the ISP. So I need to setup one LAN port that will be bridged to the WLAN connection (the stb will be connected to that lan port), and another port that will be connected to the LAN swicth so that the rest of the network has internet access. I can't see anywhere a way to create such a bridge. Quite disappointing as it's possible to do so on open source platforms such as openWRT..
