Linksys Cable / DSL :: Connect E1500 In Bridge Mode To X3000?
Apr 5, 2012
different ways to connect a printer to the X3000. how to connect a printer to the X3000, i.e. wirelessly, USB port, or directly via one of the LAN ports. I also checked the product information for X3000 on the CISCO website and it only makes reference of the USB port as StorageLink.
. Since then I have reconsidered and now am looking to purchase the E4200V2 to connect in bridge mode to my X3000 instead of the E1500. Correct me if I am wrong but connecting the E4200V2 to my X3000 should be the same connecting the E1500 to my X3000, i.e. bridge mode? Yes or No?And my final set of questions is rregarding what would be the best set-up for adding a storage device and printer to my network once I get the E4200V2 and set it up in bridge mode?
- Should I connect both the printer and storage device to my the E4200V2?
- Should I connect them both to my X3000, which provides my internet connection?
- Should I connect one to the X3000 and one to the E4200, if so which to which for best set-up?

Our family has about three computers that use a wireless network that we all share. We have an old Gateway, a WCG200, that is bridged to an E2000, which was set-up ever since we required better security when someone used our connection to illegally obtain movies. We got a letter which warned us of any future violations that could cause legal action, so we looked into our wireless connection to better secure it from any other individuals outside of our household. The WCG200 is connected to the outlet in the wall via cable, and then connects from the Ethernet to the E2000. The E2000 has a stronger security setup than the WCG200, which is the advice we received from our ISP and would allow us to keep the Gateway. It provides a strong signal, but from time to time, we suffer latency or slow loading through all of our online devices, even though our connection speed displays a solid 72.0 Mbps. I've tried the Event Viewer to see any problems, and I have noticed some small things:
- WLAN AutoConfig service has successfully stopped.Wirel?
- WLAN Extensibility Module has stopped. Module Path: C:WindowsSystem32cmihvsrv64.dll
- The server {E10F6C3A-F1AE-4ADC-AA9D-2FE65525666E} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout.
- Broadcom NetLink (TM) Gigabit Ethernet: The network link is down. Check to make sure the network cable is properly connected. [This last one is strange, since I use the Wireless Network Connection with a DW1501 Wireless-N WLAN Half-Mini Card, while the Broadcom adapter is under the Local Area Connection and displayed as not connected.]
Other than that, I'm not quite sure what the recurring problem comes from. Our WCG200 has a firewall enabled and our E2000 has an SPI firewall enabled. The security mode of the E2000 is a WPA2 setup. We have disabled the wireless network of our WCG200 in order to make use of the E2000.

I just purchased a e1500 to replace my wrvs4400n which sadly died. yea I do loose a lot of features. I set up everything without a hitch but when I try to use Wireless-N mode only, none of my computers can connect to the router and all my computers use N cards. I'm stuck on using Mixed Mode which limits my speed to G speeds. I didn't purchase this to be a G router but an N router and it seems N mode has issues. I am on the current firmware.

I have an ADSL Modem WAG200G Annex A, with latest firmware. I recently purchased a Linksys E2000 to upgrade my wireless to N, plus to get 4 gigabit Ethernet Ports for my NAS.
The problem is, I set WAG200G to "Bridge mode only", and from within E2000, I provided PPPoE credentials (user name and password), it does not work, no Internet connection!
Normally, with the WAG200G, PPPoE credential is set as followings (and it works)
Type: PPPoE Multiplexing: LLC Virtual Circuit: "0" for VPI (0~255) and "33" for VCI (0~65535) "Keep Alive" option
on E2000 Router, PPPoE does not have the above option for me to select. Only User Name and Password field

I just bought a Linksys X3000 to work with my ADSL connection (provider is Singtel from Singapore). I managed to use Cisco connection application to logon and setup the router OK, yesterday. I even connected my PC to the router by LAN, and also a few devices wirelessly.At the end of the day, I switched off everything... but next morning, when I booted up the router, I found that all my devices cannot access internet. Upon checking the server (192.168.1.1), I found that it does not have a IP from Singtel, although on the router the internet symbol (globe sign) is lighted up.I rebooted the router twice, getting the same results (note: I waited for a long time each time, until the globe was lighted up).I disconnected the X3000, and reconnected my Netgear DGN2000. It worked (and retrieved an IP address from Singtel). I then disconnected the Netgear and reconnected X3000. To my surprise, this time X3000 got the IP address and then internet is working again.

I have X3000 home gateway and very happy with this device. Use it now as ADSL modem/wifi router. Everything works fine but there is something I do not understand about this device.It has 4 LAN ports and a Cable port. Suppose, I am upgraing from a copper service to fibre. Fibre providers comes and installs their fibre box which is kind of a "modem" for fibre technology. how do I connect fibre box to X3000? Do I use Cable port or a LAN port?
As far as I understand the 4 LAN ports work as switch ports (work at OSI level 2, provide access strictly within same subnet, all devices connected to these ports share the same default gateway), and Cable port gets a different IP address via DHCP or another protocol from the fibre box, or directly from ISP (if we have PPPoE or IPoE service as an example). And there would be no point in plugging WAN link into a LAN port as X3000 would not be able to communicate to the gateway on the other end of the cable.

I configured the EA4500 to work in bridge mode, to use it as an accespoint for an existing network (Linksys WRT610N). It gets an IP address (192.168.1.141), but does not offer a wireless network (the ethernet ports do offer network acces). When I try to access the configuration on IP address 192.168.1.141 I get the Linksys Smart Wifi page asking for the password. When I enter the password, a message "Waiting" appears and that's all. It keeps me waiting forever and I cannot access the configuration settings.I have tried to reset the router (30sec. reset button, power off 30sec, power on) but the result is the same.

I am having a problem with an adapter, but I don't know if it's a router issue, adapter issue or software issue.
Router: E1500
Adapter: WUSB100
OS: Win XP Pro SP3
System: Dell Inspiron 9400
When the laptop has gone into standby and comes back out it is not connected to the internet or the 'secured side' of teh router. Instead, it asks for the 'guest side' password. When I try running Wireless Manager it goes through the entire process of 're-mating' adapter and router. That can't be right.How do I fix this so the system comes out of standby in the 'secured side' of the router?

Got 300 Mbps with Linksys X3000 in real life?I haven't seen it working at 300 Mbps since I've bought it, so I wonder whether it is truly possible. The maximum speed I've seen was 130 Mbps.

I'm currently researching in buying a new modem/router that must have the PPPoA support for the ISP, i'm wondering if the X3000 is compatible with the DD-WRT firmware? or in this case any other firmware that has a top notch QoS, We have a troll in the house that downloads too many torrents and would like to limit his bandwidth .

Over the passed couple of weeks I have experienced issues trying to connect to the internet via the LAN Ports. My main PC and a Xbox cannot connect to the internet even though 3 laptops have no problems using the Wifi connectivity.I have had two live chats with Cisco engineers and the first resolution was to perform a firmware upgrade which did solve the issue for a day or two. I think it was more to do with reset the modem/router rather than the firmware upgrade. The second session ended with the eingineer advising me to take the equipment back to PC and seek a replacement simply because Ciso have nothing in writing relating to this problem.

Following the chat with the technical support of CISCO.In few words, the LINKSYS X3000 is the only router in the world that can't shows the DSL line parameters ( SNR and LINE ATTENIATION ) so you can't evaluate the line quality without using another router.... INCREDIBLE!!!!Let's see how long it will be before the firmware update!Me: simple question: is rather embarrassing but I can't find the SNR value (Adsl status) in the Linksys X3000 interface. Same for the Line Attenuation values. These are the standard DSL information and they are essential to evaluate the DSL line quality.Unfortunately, you are right, these parameters are not available on the Gateway (X3000) Setup page.Me:It's unbelievable I use routers for my work and this is the first product that can't shows the DSL line parameters...The only parameters available under DSL Connection Subta are Status, Downstream Rate and Upstream Rate.Me:Do you think it's serious? The price of this product and the target to which it is oriented suggest a more professional approach.I agree, but as of now, this is how it is however, you need to keep an eye on future updates for the device that might include these paraters/features.Me:Please could you send a notification to the DEVELOP TEAM to quickly update this product FIRMWARE and close the gap that separates it from other products in the same category?

At this moment we have a Linksys x3000 configured as modem on a ADSL connection (PPPoA)From our monitoring server we send ICMP packets to see if the connection is alive (or not).The problem is when we disable the ipV4 SP1 firewall and do not tick the: "Filter Anonymous Internet Requests" , we still receive connection timeout's from outside hosts. Is this a bug? And if not; how can we enable ping from outside networks?We really want to enable ping because of the monitoring software.The firmware is the latest version: 1.0.0.1

The Linksys EA4500 router is designed to be added to an existing network as an additional access point. See the following description:
Setting your Linksys Wi-Fi or Smart Wi-Fi Router to Bridge Mode is applicable when you want to:• Connect two (2) routers with the capability of sharing the network resources • Use the router as an additional access point on an existing network • Connect the router to a modem/router from your Internet Service Provider (ISP) • Disable the router functionalities to work with third party devices
http:[url].....
Unfortunately the Linksys X3000 DSL modem router is not compatible to the bridge mode, since the internal switch fails if a MAC address of a wireless device switches between the X3000 internal access point and the access point of the EA4500 router. In the faulty state, no local network resources (print server, NAS, ...) are accessible anymore.

I recently changed my wireless ADSL router to an X3000. One of the main reasons for doing so was its ability to share a disk drive on the network without having to have a computer powered on to host the drive. This has been working OK for a month or two, but now the drive keeps "disappearing".
What I mean is that when a computer tries to access it over the network, it gets a message that the network name cannot be found. If I then log into the router, under the Storage section, there are no drive details showing. I have rebooted the router, and sometimes this restores the situation, sometimes not. Sometimes I have to unplug and replug the USB cable, then do a reboot. The USB drive is a 500GB Western Digital FreeAgent Desktop drive. There is nothing wrong with the drive - if I connect it directly to a computer it all works fine. Typically it drops off overnight. We can be accessing the drive OK on a couple of laptops in the evening, then next morning, "network name not found". The router and the drive remain powered on all the time.
As I said it has worked OK for a month or two, now it appears flakey and very unreliable. This router takes a very long time to reboot, so having to do it often is painful.

I am using the x3000 as a modem and router, and I managed to set up the device yesterday through the web interface (192.168.1.1).However, after less than 24 hours of continuous usage, I cannot access the interface for some odd reason. I tried using the disk that came with the device but the software reports as if I am not connected to the router. I tried pinging 192.168.1.1 and I get >1 ms so that confirms the device is active and responsive.

We have a brand new Linksys X3000, with the latest firmware installed. It does not recognise the hostnames of devices on our network. We have added a few hostnames, using 'manually add client'. My first question is why would it not recognise hostnames (a variety of devices, e.g. phones, apple time machine, linux PCs)?
The next problem is that that we are successfully able to ping IP addresses, but when we ping hostnames, results are inconsistent. e.g. currently I have my laptop and a time machine connected by wire directly to the router. I can ping the time machine by IP. The first time I ping by hostname, it works, but immediately after that I ping again and it says 'unknown host'. Why would it suddently forget about a device it is clearly connected to? Have we got some sort of default security setting I don't know about?

I've bought X3000 modem recently & the only issue is pops up for me is wifi signal is too low. I've got 2 routers with me. My old linksys router WAG200G has got no issues with wifi signal. I kept both routers at the same place & compared with same standard channel yet what astonishing me that WAG200G has got more stability than X3000 regardless inspite changing to wireless -N. Is there a way to solve it. Btw, I tried all the standard channels yet it doesn't make any difference.
Firmware Version: v1.0.01.

I have ADSL router Linksys X3000, but I have an issue with it. I have configured it properly (based on internet provider's manual), repeatedly checked it, but router still says that ADSL line is down. I have also another router from Zyxel and it works perfect with same wire and configuration, so I guess the line is fine.
