Linksys BEFSR41 Router Disconnects On Boot?

Jan 20, 2011

I have a 2 computers connected to a Linksys BEFSR41 router which is connected to a Verizon Westell DSL/Cable modem. From time to time the Ethernet link between the modem and the router spontaneously disconnects. I can reconnect the link by going to the setup menu on the router with a browser @ 192.168.1.1 Sometimes I have to do an ipconfig/release and renew to fix the link. Sometimes I have to power cycle the PC and the modem and the router.Currently this disconnect problem has gotten much worse. It occurs about every 15-20 minutes while I'm connected to the net. It also occurs when either computer is booted or turned off (I see the link light on both the modem and the router flash red for a moment).

Linksys Wired Router :: BEFSR41 Ver 4.0 Disconnects

Jan 10, 2011

I have recently been having difficulty with my router. We have 2 computers and our xbox hooked up to the router and for the last few days whenever both of the computers are in use we experience frequent disconnects. It does not happen when it is just one computer and the xbox running, but as soon as both computers are in use it happens. The disconnects are very brief but extremely frustrating when I'm trying to play a game. I have the most up to date firmware according to the linksys site

Linksys BEFSR41 - Xp Computer Won't See Router Or Vista Pc

Apr 21, 2011

I recently decided to set up my xp pc again in my bedroom. Set up everything and it wont connect to the router or see my other pc. The router and PC don't seem to see it either. So far I've made sure the Workgroup's are named the same. I've tried allowing it to obtain it's own IP as well as setting a manual default setting. When I allow it to obtain it's own IP I get a limited connectivity error. If I set default settings that error goes away but I still can't get online still or see the rest of the network. It will only ping itself. Pinging yahoo.com, my other PC or other ip addresses time out. Also there are no device errors in device manager. Everything says it's operating correctly. I've tried resetting default settings on the router. I've unplugged and replugged in everything, powering on modem/router/pc. Nothing seems to work.

The problem computer is an AMD Athlon (64) 3500+ 2.2ghz with 1g ram running Windows XP Media Center Edition version 2002 service pack 3. The Router is a Linksys BEFSR41. The Ipconfig /all for it is below:

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

C:Documents and SettingsOwner>ipconfig /all

Linksys Wired Router :: BEFSR41 V2 - URL Will Not Load

Feb 14, 2011

My internet supplier is Comcast. I have a problem with a URL that will not load or I could not connect to that site. Comcast said it was my router that was probably the reason. I have not had any problem in the span of using this model and version before. Should I be looking for firmware upgrade or a new router? Operating system is MAC OSX 10.5.

Linksys Wired Router :: BEFSR41 Can't Be Upgraded

Mar 27, 2013

I have a BEFSR41 that often goes brain-dead and the DHCP stops working.  I've tried three times to download and install new firmware but it always fails with a "pattern mismatch". My current firmware version is 2.00.02 and the file I am downloading is 2.00.04 build 8. Yes, I have verified that my hardware version is 4.3.The download file from this website is corrupted.

Linksys Wired Router :: BEFSR41 V.3 Not Working With DSL

Feb 3, 2011

I have a Century Link DSL connection in my house and its working fine. I just got a new Linksys BEFSR41 v.3. I am trying to set it up for my PC, Xbox360 and BD player. Everything works fine when I plug them in to the DSL modem 1 by 1 but when I try to put the Linksys "in the middle"... nothing... So I'm pretty sure its not my DSL modem or connection.All the lights come up on the Linksys as they should (power, internet and the Ethernet) but for some reason it seems the internet not getting trought the router. When its connected and I pull up my internet browser I type 192.168.1.1 and it takes me to the linksys config site. Without the router in the same address go to the Westell site as thats my DSL modem. Everything looks fine on the config site. All the correct IP, MAC, DNS address are there and still no internet access on any of my device.

Linksys Wired Router :: Replacing A BEFSR41 V2?

Feb 20, 2011

Comcast upgraded me to a 30 Mbps speed, and my trusty old BEFSR41 v2 doesn't cut it.    Cisco promotes wireless routers with a 1 Gbps ethernet, I would rather have a wired router, and use a WAP that I can unplug when I am not using it, since, for now, I only connect my work notebook wirelessly.    Most wireless routers also generate a lot more heat than a wired one does, and I don't need any more heat in my Houston home.A new BEFSR41 v4.3 is only 10/100 Mbps.  There doesn't seem to be any 1 Gbps wired routers for home use.  Will a new BEFSR41 give me 100% of the cable Dociss 3.0 speed, or would I need to get a 1 Gbps router to get the fastest throughput?  Or do I  only need to upgrade when the cable speed increases closer to 100 Gbps?If a 1 Gbps router is better, are there any simple business wired routers you could recommend?

Linksys Wired Router :: Computer Not Detecting BEFSR41 V4.3

Dec 23, 2010

I am using a Windows 7 machine and I'm pretty sure the ethernet cable that I'm using is functional, considering that I'm using it to connect to the Internet right now.I've been trying to get my router going for a while now and I'm pretty sure I've tried everything that the internet has advised.  I've screwed around with the card speed, 10 mbps Half Duplex didn't work or anything.  I've manually set the IP and related stuff to 192.168.1.x and the works.  I've tried to manually run the setup, although that definitely didn't work considering that my computer can't even detect the dang router.  I've screwed around with the wiring and restarted my router and modem constantly.

Linksys Wired Router :: BEFSR41 V1 Which TFTP Utility To Use?

May 30, 2006

I just have a quick question about the TFTP utilities that Linksys has. I tried to upgrade the firmware of my BEFSR41 v1 router using the TFTP utility for a BEFSX41 and it didn't work(I just hope I did it correctly).

So, the question is, are these utilities router-specific or they should work with other routers as well?

Linksys Wired Router :: BEFSR41 V4.3 Won't Log Incoming Nor Outgoing

Jul 15, 2010

I went a bought a brand new model V4.3. I had trouble installing it right from the word GO, but I did successfully get that acomplished, how ever one of the important features "logging of incoming and out going ip" won't work at all. I tried deleting the old logview.exe and rebooting  everything, then installed the "new" logviewer.exe. Well absolutely nothing happens. I have double and triple checked the setting in the router...logging is turned on,  the computer which has the logviewer.exe installed is the confirmed network ip i.e. 192.168.1.101 and I can and do access the internet and all other computers on the network from that computer.

Linksys Wired Router :: BEFSR41 How To Use A Packet Sniffer

Feb 10, 2011

how to use a packet sniffer for a night school class, but lack a hub at home. I only have a BEFSR41 Cable/DSL Router with 4-port switch.Is there any safe way to use active sniffing methods? Would the "Mac Flooding" I've heard about work, or do I need to find some kind of ARP poisoning method?Unfortunately while I do recall using Etherpeek around 10 years ago, it was at a very basic level and I'm out of practice.Is there a way to make the switch act like a hub?

Linksys Wired Router :: BEFSR41 V2 Will Not Access Internet?

Sep 12, 2011

I have a BEFSR41 V2 router connected to a westell c90 modem and my provider is Bellsouth.net (AT&T). I have the modem set to PPPoE and DHCP enabled. I am using the router as a gateway. The router's status page indicates that is communicating with the modem. Release and renew works and I can detect the addresses of the modem. I just can't pull up websites. I am wondering if this router (12 years old) is not compatable with the service.

Linksys Wired Router :: BEFSR41 V3 Limited Or No Connectivity

Feb 22, 2011

i have a BEFSR41 v3 firmware v 1.05.00 - i have been usuing it for at least 7 or 8 years now - at one time i had 3 computers hooked up and they all three worked fine. Now i have 2 plugged into the router - both are xppro machines - the one i am now works with no problems. The other computer however has the limited or no connectivity problem.I used this router for years without any problems then one day this ip conflict message started to appear.Then one day i started getting this weird ip conflict message on both computers but only occasionaly - it never caused any problems - if you ignored it - it would simply go away.Then one day computer #2 got the limited or no connectivity message - i simple reboot fixed it. This solution worked several times. Computer #1 has never had any problems.
 
Sometime later the limited or no connectivity problem reappeared and this time a reboot did not work - i searched for a fix and decided to try changing the link speed from auto sense to 10mb half duplex - this solved the problem. This solution worked several times.Sometime after that the limited or no connectivity reappeared and after some searching i upgraded the routers firmware - this solved the problem.Sometime later the limited or no connectivity reappeared and this time i had to actually uninstall the NIC, reboot and then let it redetect the NIC and then the problem was fixed. This solution worked several times.Sometime later the limited or no connectivity reappeared and the previous solutions did not work to fix it - after searching for a fix i discovered that i could simply unplug the router and the plug it back in and this would solve the problem. This solution worked many times.Sometime later (wich brings us to 3 or 4 months ago) the limited or no connectivity reappeared and this time after searching for a fix i was able to fix it by updating the NIC drivers. Problem solved.This brings us to now - the limited or no connectivity has reappeared and none of the previous fixes correct the problem.When i originally set everything up it worked immediately out of the box.
 
DHCP is enabled - everything is set to obtain an ip address automatically.At first the event viewer reported The IP address lease 192.168.1.100 for the Network Card with network address0xxxxxxxxx has been denied by the DHCP server 192.168.1.1. {The DHCP Serversent a DHCPNACK message}.Now the even viewer just tells me it is using ip address 169.254.xxxxxx - (not the exact message but i didn't wanna go back and look)I have tried all of the previous fixes to no avail. I've tried shutting everything off and turning everything back on - i've tried resetting both the modem and the router - i've tried upgrading the firmware again. I even downloaded LELA and installed it on both computers thinking maybe it would detect and fix the problem buy no such luck. LELA simply tells me that computer #1 is working normally. On computer #2 when i installed LELA the first thing it did was try to find the router and it tells me it cannot find it.I.ve tried ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew - i've tried it one after the other and also a reboot in between. I've tried clicking on repair in the LAN status - i've tried even tried different cables and switching ports on the router.

Linksys Wired Router :: BEFSR41 V4 Keeps Dropping Connection

Feb 4, 2013

For a number of months now, our Internet connection in an office of 5 computers, 2 Macs, 3 windows boxes (1 as dell  laptop) has experienced the connection of the Internet dropping off.The timing of the 'drops' is usually in the morning, when the Dell Inspiron M510 either boots up or wakes from sleep. Typically the solution is to turn off the modem, the router and switch, wait a few minutes, then turn the switch, the router, then the modem back on. Our connection via the modem is through AT&T, via a non-static IP addy.Our router is a BEFSR41, v4, with firmware up to date (circa 2006) It's becoming a daily chore now, just about, and is getting to be a bit of a headache on some days.

Linksys Wireless Router :: BEFSR41 Removing 2nd Router From Home Network

Nov 12, 2011

My home computer accesses the Internet through an ADSL modem and a phone line. I added a wired router (Linksys BEFSR41).I've since bought a laptop computer, an iPhone4 and a wireless router (Linksys WRT160N).Again, on the advice of a friend, I ADDED the wireless router, so now have two routers connected.The devices are connected as follows:

-Wall jack to ADSL modem
-ADSL modem to BEFSR41
-BEFSR41 to WRT160N
-WRT160N to desktop computer.
 
As I understand Linksys routers, the default IP address for ALL Linksys routers is 192.168.1.1.Both the iPhone4 and the laptop are unable to connect to the wireless router.I'm assuming the two routers are conflicting with each other, so I thought I would remove the wired router..Can I change the IP address of the BEFSR41 router from 192.168.1.2?

Would this resolve the conflict between the two routers and allow the wireless devices to "see" the wireless router? What's the correct procedure for removing the BEFSR41 router from the system?
