How To Setup Actiontec Modem
Jun 10, 2011
I'm purchasing an Actiontec GT724WGR Universally Compatible 4-port ADSL Wireless Gateway to be used strictly as a modem with Qwest DSL. I'm also purchasing an Asus Black Diamond Dual Band Processor, Hardware NAT, 5 Internal Antennas, Fast Gigabit Ethernet and 128MB DDR2 Wireless Router (RT-N56U) to be utilized a my primary router.My question is how do I set up the Actiontec modem to be strictly used as a modem without the wireless g function transmitting since I will be using the ASUS as the primary router? Or do I just let both of the transmit as routers together?

My new PC does not have internal modem card.I use Verizon FIOS Actiontec router #M1424-WR rev F. What do I have to do to use as modem for receiving and sending faxes? Do I now have to buy an external USB modem?

So we just got a new router for our higher speed internet. The modem is an Actiontec Q1000 from Qwest. We used to live out in the middle of nowhere, so we never needed to secure our internet. Now we live close to neighbors and we need to encrypt the wireless. When I try any encryption, however, I can't connect at all. I have tried temporarily having it unlocked and I could connect without a problem. It also works fine when I'm using my Ethernet cord.
Heres my IPCONFIG.

Just had Verizon FIOS service installed. It comes with an actiontec modem. I would like to remove the actiontec modem and connect directly to my Linksys RT31P2 which is cascaded to my Linksys WRT54G. I have tried just about every router setup config; all with no success. How to be able to connect the FIOS directly to a linksys router.

I just received a new Cisco SG300-10 and am configuring it in Layer 3 mode. I am trying to setup multiple routed VLANs going back to a FiOS Actiontec router. My configuration is as follows.
Fios Router: 192.168.1.1
Assigning DHCP 192.168.1.2 through 100.
SG300-10 has VLan 1 ip 192.168.1.5 used for Mgmt.
VLAN2 is 10.0.2.1
VLAN3 is 10.0.3.1.
I have a static route set on the fios router for both subnets setup as follows.
Destination 10.0.3.0 Gateway 192.168.1.5 Netmask 255.255.255.0 Metric 1
Destination 10.0.2.0 Gateway 192.168.1.5 Netmask 255.255.255.0 Metric 1
I have a laptop connected to Gi8 on the Cisco (Vlan 3) and statically assigned 10.0.3.3, with a gateway of 10.0.3.1. DNS set to the fios router (192.168.1.1).
Everything pretty much works EXCEPT, I cannot get out to the internet from either vlan. Traffic routes between vlans/and the default subnet on the fios without issue.
When I ping out, DNS resolves, but will not go past the fios router. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

I'm following this tip, but how do you access the second router (Cisco E2500) settings? I always get sent to the first router.

Is there a way to force the user to use the modem dns settings? I'm using open dns (set within the modem settings) but think the users are simply entering alternate dns servers in the browser settings or temporarily re-configuring the network settings. I know the easy solution is to take away administrative privileges, but due to the work the users are doing, they need admin privileges.

I have a small home network, which until now has been set up via a Verizon DSL modem/router. Today I added an ASUS wirless router to the network, and that is working just fine. However, I did not think to shut off wireless service from the modem before I switched over. However, now I can't seem to find the IP necessary to access the modem's setup screens. Whereas before I logged in at 192.168.1.1, I get nothing there now. The new router is at 192.168.2.1 and I have not be able to puzzle out any IP that gets me access to the modem settings. Is there way to find that screen, without totally redoing the setup process?

I want to setup SQL Server on my internal home network, and make it available to my colleagues.
[code]...
Win 2008 Server with SQL Server.What do I need to do to allow my colleagues to connect to the SQL server from their computers, in their offices (not on my network)?For example, because I have a DHCP address from my ISP, do I need to use something like DynDNS to track my IP address?

We have three laptops in our house. We are set up with internet that gives me a direct connect and up to eight wireless devices. My son and daughter-in-law use the wireless and I use the direct connect. M son added a router (which I have no idea what that does) and set up networking on his computer (which I also have no idea what that does). When I am the only one on the computer, it flys. When either of them get on thiers too, it slowes a little. When both of them get on, I might as well get off because it can take up to three and a half minutes to load a page.

I bought the DIR 655 to put into our network as the Netopia wireless fails to connect even though we have maximum signal strength. Att advised that buying a third party router would solve this problem.I did manage to almost configure the DIR 655. I would have to connect it to the system to test it[CODE]

My adolescent son wants to create a server to host video games. We, the parents, want to separate our computers and files from all the crazy security risks my son and his friends take, while allowing them to learn by their mistakes.I want 2 separate networks, or does this make sense? Would love to have our computers (assorted PC's, Macs, both laptops and desktops, running Vista Ultimate, Windows 7, OSX 10.5 and up), ipods, TV's, Blu-rays, wireless printers, etc. isolated from our son's computers, ipods, TV's, XBox, Blurays, wireless printers, (as well as the digital stuff his friends bring over).Since security is the reason for this, would love any tips over and above Brian Posey's article on Tech Republic (5 common security mistakes people make on setting up wireless networks, or something like that)We have Optimum high speed (testing up to 65 mps) internet service and 5 static IP addresses to work with.

I've been having problems with the router portion of my cable modem router. I have a brand new router that I would like to use rather than the crappy router that is part of the cable modem.The problem is that I'm not able to get online no matter how I set the settings. I have disabled DHCP in the cable modem router and am connecting this to the router thru the internet port of the router.

I would like to be able to access my DSL Modem's http setup screens from my networked computers via my DIR-655 (rev B) router - but I do not know how to get the router to route to the WAN port.
At first, I had my DSL Modem's LAN IP at 192.168.0.1 and my DIR-655 at 192.168.1.1 and the rest of my home network at 192.168.1.xxx; because I had read on a forum that having the modem on a different subnet prevented potential routing problems. When I pointed my web browser to 192.168.0.1 - it would just timeout (I kind of expected that).
Now (willing to try anything), I have my DSL Modem's LAN IP at 192.168.0.2 and my DIR-655 at 192.168.0.1 and the rest of my home network at 192.168.0.xxx (DHCP range is set to assign hosts from 64 to 254). When I point my web browser to 192.168.0.2 - it still just times out.
The DSL Modem is setup in transparent bridge mode. And everything else is working well with the home network.
How can I get the DIR-655 to pass/route my http connection to the DSL modem?

I can't seem to setup my WAG120N modem.I kept on getting the error "your ethernet cable does not appear to be connected properly" even though I have connected all the cables correctly. I can access the modem through the browser via 192.168.1.1 though.I thought the setup is supposed to be simple but I have wasted few hours.

Just upgraded to Verizon FIOS and had an Actiontec MI424WR Rev F router (firmware v.20.10.7) supplied. Went to white-list my ereader's MAC in router and intitial page asked me to change the default login and password which I planned to do anyway. I know what I changed them to. Made changes, logged out, then decided I really wasn't comfortable with WEP and went back to change it to WPA. All I got was "Login failed, please try again." Finally hit the reset button and started over at the "please change login and password" screen. I can get in then.
I've been through this six times now and cannot get past the initial login without a hard reset. Tried keeping "admin" as the login because I have met peripherials that are touchy about that. Not a major issue now that I have the router set up to my satisfaction, but it frustrates me to not have password access to any part of my system. (Yes, I am that anal.)

How do I setup a E3200 router using a wireless USB modem to connect to the internet? This is my only choice, I do not have a wired connection and I do not own the telephone wires and there is no permission to do otherwise.

My daughter is on an Army Base in the South Pacific. They have Dial up internet on their home telephone not DSL. They have high speed wireless at the base community center/coffee shop. I will be going there in 9 days to install the dir-615. She has a Dell Desktop with Vista Basic SP1, laptop with XP, IPAD2 and a NOOK Tablet. The dir-615 HVE1 with firmware 5.00na on the bottom sticker. She said she was able to go to web address, login, change the user name and password, started on the wireless configuration and she paniced. My question is basically this. by using a cat5 cable from the desktop to the dir-615 with dialup internet connected can the router be setup using the automatic method as opposed to manual. Our first priority is to be able transfer files to the 2 tablets without being connected to the internet like a switch and secondly If possible go on to the internet from a Tablet or the Laptop. I assume the second option would reuire internet sharing option when setting up the network and performance would be ugly.
Can get I get this router to work this way with just dialup to set it up

I tried to forward a new port on my Actiontec V1000H router. I was able to sign in without incident, but the moment I tried to begin navigating within pages, I would be greeted with a red screen reading '400 Bad Request - No request found' roughly 60% of the time. Usually refreshing the page a number of times would allow me to proceed, but because the Telus software for the V1000H cycles through so many pages when applying a new forwarded port to the firewall, it's almost statistically impossible to make it through.I have no issues with internet connectivity, and having this port forwarded isn't critical, but this problem is a real nuisance as it turns changing any router settings into a long, tedious, and sometimes downright impossible chore.

I have Centurylink DSL as an internet provider. They recently replaced my old Actiontec GT701-WG with an Actiontec C1000A. Since upgrading the modem, I can't get my XP laptop to connect. I can get an iPad, Vista laptop, a Windows 7 laptop, and a WII to connect using the exact same settings I had on the old Actiontec.I've set the C1000A to WPA/WPA2-PSK and TKIP/AES. I do not have an access list enabled. I set the SSID and key to the same settings I had on the original Actiontec. I've upgraded the drivers on my XP laptop to the latest version. I can see the SSID in my list of networks but when I try to connect, it just sits there saying connecting. I've set up my old Actiontec as a wireless switch and can connect with the XP laptop without any problems. I've also connected to a Netgear 802.11N wireless router at another location without problems.

I'm trying to setup a Canyon CN-FW514 wireless router through a Thomson modem.When I first started trying, I could get up the set-up screen on [URL] however this is as far as I got; the laptop said it had a very strong signal with the wireless connection, but I could not get any web pages to open (windows explorer couldn't detect any problems either). The Thomson modem works when I conect it to the laptop via the ethernet cable, but that's not much use to me trying to use the internet elsewhere in the house!I tried changing the IP address, subnet mask and gateway IP address on the set-up screen [URL] which seems to have been a big mistake; I now can't even get the set-up screen to appear.I've reset the internet options and have set everything to obtain the IP address automatically but am still having no luck.
