F5D7230-4 - How To Protect NAS Behind Wireless Router
Jun 10, 2012
I just installed a new Synology DS212j NAS behind an old Belkin F5D7230-4 wireless router (probably from 2006) on my home network. The wifi network uses WPA-TKIP with a strong password but otherwise has no security. The NAS is connected to the router with cat5. The NAS is setup with a couple password-protected shares (accounts setup on the NAS) that the Windows 7 PCs on the wifi network can access.
Since the NAS and router will be on 24/7, what else do I need to do to ensure that the NAS is secure?
I have done all the resets, factory resets, hard resets, and any other names. When I attempt to enter any sort of IP addresses,default Belkins and ones I see when viewing ipconfig, all it does is perform a Google Search with the numbers.Again, turning on wireless on my laptop and phone fail to find my router, which used to just be called "Belkin".Here is all the info that I believe you need:
IP- Comcast Modem-Cisco DPC3008 Router - Belkin F5d7230-4 V1444 (althought a little old, have never had major issues untill a couple days ago)
Windows IP Configuration Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : JBerman-Win7 Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . : mmreibc.prv Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Hybrid IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No
Right now mine isn't PW protected, but I think I'm going to do that. Anyway, my question is, if I change my router settings and make it PW protected will I have to type that in every time I turn on my computer to get access to the internet?
I have an asus wireless router the router lost connection for a few days and when Internet came back there was no password to protect Internet and was just basically open access. The computer which all the Internet setting are on went away for repair. When the man brought it back after backing up the computer I asked him to put the password back on the Internet. This he has done. We entered the new passwords on our iPhones and they connected and worked no problem. Then we tried to do it with our laptops but they won't connect. Phoned the bloke back he said we had to get the laptops to forget all the old settings for the router and it would on take five minutes but he never told us how to do it.
I am trying to password protect my router but when I go into wireless> security mode and click on WPA or any of the other choices it goes back to disabled.
I rexently bought a EA6500 to controll when and how much my children should access internett. Even before I have installed it my son have downloaded a program called Netcut, who hacks innto the router and take controll over the access and the prioritation of computers on the network. Is there any way I can block such software to access my router. I had a livechat with Linksys, and they claimed that the router have no capability to block programs. I also tried to download "Netcut Defender" but my AVG warned me about a worm/virus in the download, so i aborted the operation
My router has been in use for some time. WRT54G. I did the set up from the disc and instructions and it's been no problems. I would now like to add a password to log on to it from a wireless computer such as my laptop or the other household computer.
I got an Linksys WRT54GL-DE and my problem is,that someone manipulates the router.Is there any chance to protect the router in that way,that is not possible to reset the router by using the Reset-ButtonNOR by the Linksys software-tool?Especially the software-tool is the problem - I am afraid,that somebody reset / manipulate the router by using the software.
I have a linksys WRT54G router. I am able to get to the admin menu via IP 192.168.1.1 but can not figure out where to to navigate to or how to put a (password on the wireless access) so my neighbors wont be able to use my router to get on the internet.
I have a linksys E3000 and a WD My Book World Edition 2. (WDMBWE2)What i want is to access my WD from any where. I have tried setting up a simple single port forward to the WDMBWE2, which worked great. I was able to view all my files from anywhere.however, i wasn't prompted for any login.so basically anyone could access and modify all my data.I have obviously deactivated this again.
I have already tried setting up user accounts on my WDMBWE2 to try and solve this, but that only creates the problem of my TV and music player not being able to access it anymore(they both cant type in login information).Is there any way to make the E3000 prompt me a for login/password when requesting that port?
how to set up a Belkin F5D7230-4 6000 router as a wifi access point. My home set up is the following: Dell Desktop connected by Lan to a Telefonica/Movistar router (I live in Spain), Dell portable .. connected by wifi at the other end of the house ..saying it's portable is a bit of a joke .. it's old and moving it is not an option ! Problem is I don't get much wifi signal on the portable to be able to do anything at all online so after googling on how to increase wifi signal .. worked out that I could set up an access point.. and owning a belkin router have been trying to set it up although I think there is something
I've connected the belkin by cable to the portable and disabled the DCHP and clicked on set up as an access point, set up wifi security and password, but when i am trying to reset the IP address I end up having to reset the router and start all over again.
I'm using a wireless g router (f5d7230-4) which for most purposes is fine? Specifically: 1. I can't seem to stream media content from my windows 7 pc to my lg tv (model 55 lw 6500), and wonder if the age of the router is part of the problem; 2. some iptv channels on my ps3 are slow to load menus, though programs run fine when I push play (I gather ps3 is restricted to wireless g but if I upgraded the router I would plug in the ps3 using cat6). When I speed test my internet connection I'll typically get results around 2.5-5 Mbps. I'm impressed that a router of this age performs so well it isn't obvious to me that upgrading will improve the setup.
My rv082 router protect link gateway is already activated. How do i change the key or activate it with a new activation key?The router dont have any link to change the key. I'm using v1-2 rv082
I have a Netgear router which feeds an Eugenius ecb3500 Wireless Access point. I did not install the access point. I need to password protect our wireless environment, and that needs to be done on the Engenius. However, though I have tried many ways to access that device, I cannot. I cannot get an IP address for it,either. When I plug it directly in to my laptop (Win7), and type in the command line ipconfig, I get the IPv4 addresses of my laptop's local and wireless LAN card. How to get into the Engenius access point and password protect it?
I am making my wireless network with Wireless router DIR-600 and DWA-525 desktop adapters for my office. I created a most secured type of network WPA2. And I have to create profile for DWA-525 desktop adapter to connect to my network and it requires the network secret key to connect. But This secret key is viewable from the "Network connection manager" when one can click on modify network and click on "Show text in the password field" by everyone using this computer (I mean by all other office staff). I don't want to let any one know my wireless network secret key. Is there any way to protect the key while having the computers automatically connected to wireless network. More information is below
Model: DWA-525 Hardware Version: A1 Firmware Version: 1.10 Operating System: Windows 7 Service Pack: 1
Im trying to setup my wireless router I've had for a while to have a password.It has been unsecured since I've had it.I have the manual but not the install wizard.I tried probably a hundred times but cant seen to get it right.The model is F5D7230-4.I called the support number. The router works excellent but I just cant get the security password to setup.I reset it a few times and tried and tried with user manual directions
Is there any way to clear the archived DHCP list on the Belkin F5D7230-4 wireless router? Over the years there have been a lot of connections, most are no longer around but the Belkin holds on to the list. I can find no way to clear it to get it back to what is currently connected. I have tried a soft reboot, unplugging power etc but it seems like I will have to do a factory reset and apart from not being able to find my ADSL login details, I would have to reset all my settings.
Can I use my F5D7230-4 as an access point? I need to provide a hardwired ethernet connection to my A/V reciever but not have a wired port in the area of my house. I have an existing wireless router thru Century Link. Could I have the Belkin attach itself to the wireless network and then have a cat 5 come out of one of the four ports to connect my A/V reciever to the network?
I have a Belkin G router F5D7230-4 (firmware version 8.01.07) and am trying to view stats on what is using our connection.We have a very low capacity, rural wireless broadband that our ISP tells us is maxed out all the time, even when we don't appear to be using any devices, so I'd like to view the traffic on our DHCP client list to see which device is using an excessive amount of bandwith and put a limit on its access.I don't see a statistics tab on the setup page, is there another place to look or does Belkin have an external program to do this?
I am trying to use f5d7230-4 v6000 to connect my TV and Playstation to my home WLAN, but cannot set up the router to receive the signal from the base station (FRITZ!Box). Is it possible at all to use f5d7230-4 v6000 for such function?
I am running "PLEX Media server" on a PC and have a "Roku" client working perfectly on my home network
I am trying to use the "My PLEX" feature of "PLEX" to stream my content to the internet and access it on a Nook or iPod from any internet hot spot. This requires that the router supports DLNA. I am not sure what this is and am not successful at this so far.
Although it may sound like I know what I'm talking about I am at my limit and do not know how to determine if my router will support DLNA.
Is it time to get a new router or is there something I need to do to the router so it supports DLNA?
I've got an HP Printer which supports ePrint, which is very useful for me because I always need to print stuff, especially when i'm at college.The only problem is: we've got almost 200 people on the same network here. And I don't want radom trolls to just be able to print with my printer. (The printer has a direct wired connection to the network)
We are a non-profit organization that is heavily reliant on interns that use their own laptops a lot here. My concern is they come in and connect to our wireless network with no supervision or anything else. I am worried they will introduce a virus, trojan, or something to our network. What the best way to keep them from introducing unwanted malware from a thumb drive, virus in email, or something to that effect shy of standing over them while they install and run an antivirus software?
We bought two packs of IPCAM online from a vendor named HooToo, who seems have different online sites for selling various surveillance cameras. What we purchased is a unit with model no. of HT-IP206, according to its advertisement it has a storage temperature as low as minus 10 degree, and adversely high up to 60degree. While on the other hand, it states that the operating temperature shall be strictly between zero and 55degree. What Im concerned is that what if temperature drops down to minus when a camera is fully operating? Shall extra heating system be needed while the real temperature fails to meet the above-said requirement?
At the school I live in various sites are blocked so I need to use a proxy to access them. Is there any way that someone could steal my password or something while I use one? Also, let's say that I use a proxy in one web browser (let's say Opera) to view a blocked site, but then use a different browser (Firefox) with my normal IP, would I be able to use Firefox with no worries if I need to check something like my bank account? Basically, can you restrict them to one program so you can use personal information on one and normal browsing on the other?
I feel a bit in over my head here as I've never dealt with QoS stuff before, but what I'm trying to do can't be all that difficult. We are using a Cisco ASA 5505 appliance for routing/firewall.We are on a cable Internet connection with 3 MB upload.
On Sunday mornings, we send audio from a device on our network out over the Internet to a radio station which then broadcasts it, but we've had some jitter problems lately and would like to reserve some space for this audio feed to get out without other traffic getting in the way.
The device on our network sending the audio has IP address 192.168.0.22. The device's documentation states it uses TCP 9002 to send session data and UDP 9000 to send the audio data.
So, it seems to me I need to simply tell the firewall to give priority to the device at IP address 192.168.0.22, perhaps also specifying the ports and protocols. I'd rather not try to do this using command line stuff but will do what I need to.
Using the Cisco ASDM launcher to configure the ASA 5505, I created the following security policy but I'm thinking it may be incomplete, or perhaps the wrong thing altogether:
I created a "Source" called WLFJ_Tieline which is a network object with IP address 192.168.0.22.For "Destination" I just chose "any" to cover it all.For "Service" I don't know what I'm doing in that field. I see I can choose from things like TCP, UDP, IP, and also add port numbers, but I'm just not sure what I'm doing in there and chose IP.Then there is the "Source Service" field that I don't know if should be blank.
