Linksys Cable / DSL :: WAG320N - Loosing Internal Settings After Power Reset
Aug 25, 2011
I recently bought the WAG320N and initial setup (Wizard) went fine ....(I selected all the defaults as presented to me so I did not afterwards modify anything on the settings)
However ...when powering off (and back on) the device , my Dream box Satellite units (DM500) could not get access to the internet anymore (outbound) on port 12000.
All other internet traffic went fine ...through browser, wireless, ...all OK.....I tried everything to resolve but ultimately only succeeded in re-configuring from scratch. This solved the issue .....until ....right...I powered off the device and brought it back up ....same symptoms. Did a hard-reset (back to factory defaults), reconfigured through wizard and ...all OK again .....until I powered the device off and back on .....
I have come to a point now where I excluded all possible 'surrounding' disturbing factors (eliminated switches etc ....and only connected 1 Dream box unit directly to the device) and ....same symptoms ....when powering off/on, the dream box cannot get out anymore and re-configuring from sracth resolves ....until the next power off/on.
And ...it is really the power off/on handling (reboot procedure WAG320N ?) that is causing it .....(I disconnected the DSL line and put it back in , forcing the modem to reconnect DSL and then all still works OK ). It seems as if certain -internal- settings get lost after a power shutdown.....but why specifically port 12000 ? (and ...no...I did not setup any port forwarding not triggering.

I've recently upgraded from a WAG54GS to the WAG320N. It seems to work OK for a period then looses the connetion to the Internet - DSL light on but not the Internet light. Normally I need to re-set the router to re-connect (either through the back switch or through the setup page)
This is my DSL information from [URL] whilst connected OK
--- System Information ---Vendor: LinksysModelName: WAG320NFirmware Version: 1.00.08 , 2009-08-27T19:37:13Boot Version: 1.06Hardware Version: 0.01--- DSL Information ---DSL Driver Version: AnnexA version - A2pB023k.d21dDSL VPI/VCI: 0/38DSL Status: ShowtimeDSL Mode: ADSL2+DSL Channel: DSL Upstream Rate: 1023 KbpsDSL Downstream Rate: 18723 Kbps Down up DSL Noise Margin: 9.1 dB 6.7 dBDSL Attenuation: 22.5 dB 12.0 dBDSL Transmit Power: 19.0 dBm 12.5 dBm--- Wireless Information ---Wireless Driver Version: 5.10.85.0.cpe4.402.4Wireless Status: EnabledWireless Wide Channel: 9Wireless Standard Channel: 11- 2.462GHZWireless SSID: irae_2--- Dynamic Information ---LAN Mac Address: 00:22:6B:F5:6F:A7WAN Mac Address: 00:22:6B:F5:6F:A9Wireless Mac Address: 00:22:6B:F5:6F:A8---
When the modem looses connection to the Internet; the DSL Noise Margin drops way down to 0.0 or 0.5.

I access my home computers via teamviewer or logmein. My router is a Wag320n
Sometimes my internet connection is lost and if I'm home, I just reset it and the internet is on again.
But when I am away and the internet connection is lost, I can not access my computer. If only I could reset it, I would be able to access the computers I am trying to find a solution to do this.
Practically when the internet connection is lost, the modem does not get an IP from the ISP right? And when this IP is not assigned, there is no way of connecting to the router itself right? Is there a way of pinging or resetting or accessing a modem that is connected to he phone line? I think it is impossible. Or maybe it is possible via some MAC address search or sniffer or I don't know.
Another option would be to somehow have the modem reset, let's say every hour automatically so that the max time I would not be able to accss my computers remotely would be 1 hour.

It seems there's no way to reboot this device from the browser interface. You have to actually go and recycle the power by physically pressing the button.Plus, to setup Port Forwarding you have to reboot the modem.This is a major problem because it means you have to be on the premises to change things like the port forwarding. You setup it up, but have to reboot for it to take effect.

1. Does Linksys WAG320N support USB printer? Can I connect a printer to USB-port and send some text to print from notebook via wi-fi?
2. The fact is that I have a cheap, simple chinese WiFi-ADSL-modem ZTE, which has 3 modes - low / medium / high for WI-FI signal. So, the signal is transmitted by ZTE at LOW-level is equivalent to signal, which now sends my WAG320N. When I turn ZTE on high-level, then the range of wi-fi signal increases much, comparing with the range given by WAG320N. So, where can I turn on high-mode in my WAG320N?

My IP provider has upgraded my broadband speed in early Jan. They require ADSL2. It seems to coincide with this date that I keep loosing my internet connection on a regular basis, say every 2 days or so, but not consistent. The cure is to unplug the linksys WAG200G ADSL home gateway. Plug it in again and all is well, until the next time. On the box it says the until is ADSL2/2+ compliant.

some reference material about configuring my WAG320N to use my cable modem via Ethernet port 1. I've seen it mentioned that's its possible, however I've been unable to sort it out myself.
And before you ask, I've brought the DSL router as I'm moving in the next 12 months and my new base will not have access to cable internet and I'll be reverting back to DSL.

My Cisco X3000 keeps loosing the internet connection after 1 day and will only reconnect if the device is rebooted. Pressing the Internet connect button in the Status page does nothing.Even when the Internet connection is lost, the wireless network is working 100% and all the devices on the network stays connected and are accessible.The router has been updated to the latest Firmware available from Cisco v1.0.03 build 001 Jun 11,2012

I have an intermittent issue with a new WAG320N.Device is new (installed for 1 month now) and is running the latest firmware "out of the box".
Device was confirmed as working (recommended) via the ISP, as it uses a Broadcom chipset, so it works "more reliably" with the ISP's hardware which uses the same chipset.
Setup was painless and the router synced up fine and has been operating for a few weeks. However, twice in the past week the router has become unresponsive to ping over the LAN. Furthermore, the device's lights indicate everything is OK, however I have to reset the router (power cycle) and then it returns to normal.
WIFI is OFF. LAN IP is set manually, DHCP is OFF. The router is plugged into it's own UPS.

How to configure settings for router E4200I live in Finland and bought new Cisco Linksys WAG320n router modem as I am experienced Cisco user. However after spending several hours and setups on the WAG320n router I cannot get it to connect on the ISP ADSL line.
RFC2684 Bridged
LLC/SNAP
g.dmt or ADSL2+
VPI 0
VCI 100
But once I setup these or acutally any other setting I cannot get the router to connect. With the right settings I can get the DSL PVC status up and connected but the ModemRouter cannot connect and retrieve IP-address from ISP.

I'm trying to play some online games and my WAG320N does not forward ports, upnp does not function and to top it off DMZ wont even work (not a software firewall issue either). I have the latest firmware (and honestly the stock firmware is terrible).
Am I out of luck or is there something I can do to fix this? I sure as hell will be steering clear of linksys products after this.

This WAG320N Router can get really slow after a while use which is really frustrating for me since I am a gamer. Power cycling it SOMETIMES does the trick but it will still get slow. It has been slow just now and over here it is midnight so the internet peak should be down and my internet should be faster but its now.

I have the WAG320N. I know if my router is updated to fix the bug of the WPS?There is an update? Which is the date scheduled for release? The vulnerability of my network has been compromised yesterday because of this bug, so either the update is released soon or I'll have to switch to another product of some companies more serious

Transferring a file between a wired Win 7 machine and a wireless Snow Leopard mac seems to top out at 32Mbps.I've seen over 60Mbps on this laptop using N networks before, and when I wire the laptop I get a more respectable 240Mbps (presumably maxing out the server's disk I/O rate), so I'd say the issue is the router.
Things I have already tried:updating the firmware to 1.00.125Ghz modeFinding the least crowded 2.4Ghz channelswide channelsSetting network mode to N-onlySetting the transmission rate to 108Mbpschanging the beacon interval to 50, the frag threshold to 2201 and the RTS threshold to 2202

I have only purchased this modem a few days ago (upgraded from a working Netgear DGN2000 for Gigabit).... it's solid most the time except for once a day when it needs to be reset.
One morning I accessed a single website, only to find the next wouldn't come up. (approx 7:30am) Lastnight the net was working fine at 11:30pm.... Thismorning I woke up, checked my download manager to find that at 2:30am all queued downloads failed, so the ADSL dropped sometime inbetween then.
The LAN and Wifi still work fine, when I go into the settings and click "reconnect" nothing happens. I need to turn the modem off for a min before it works ok. There is no newer firmware as of yet to try.

I do not have a "storage" tab in my setup screen. I have Setup, Security, Wireless, etc. According to its manual there must be a Storage tab between security and wireless. Mine doesn't have it. USB drive is connected and I see "mywag320n" on the network but I can't access it because it requires login and password (which I guess I must set up from Storage tab )

I have recently bought a WAG320N modem Gigabite router to substitute the modem router supplied by the internet service provider (in theory less performant).
Formerly I have a wireless router Zyxel (MOD. P660HW-D1). The main computer is wired (connected trough ethernet), I have also a NAS device (WD mybook world 1TB with Twonky as server) wired and a third wired connection for the above mentioned PLK 300. The PLK 300 (4 Inputs and one output) is used to connect a TV (Sony BRAVIA) a Bluray (SONY) a PS3 (Sony) and a multimedia HD (DVICO). All this was working properly. I have internet access from TV, PS3,... I was able to run videos, photos,... stored in the NAS from TV,....
I decided to change for improving the transfer speed and to allow a better wireless connection (I have initially coverage problems, but because I only use the wireless rarely...).Initially I bought a Linksys E 3000 (I thought it was possible to connect it directly to internet and not trough a modem. I asked to several people and in several shops but no one told me this was not possible). That was my first failure: I would like to suggest the liknsys people to clearly explain this on the product sheet to avoid that not very well informed people like me commit the same error.
Then I chaged the E3000 by the WAG320N. I connect the new modem-router like the former (Zyxel). No room for big errors, just the power, DSL line and ethernet cables. It works for the PC and the NAS but the PLC (PLK300) do not appears to work. Several tries later (including plugin the PLK on the line 1 input of the router it is shown on the network map but do not work. I do not have access to the internet nor to the NAS contents form TV,....
I go back to the former router and everything works again in the simplest way (I have internet access form TV,...) except the Twonky access to the NAS from TV ¿?. I do not know exactly what I have changed,...)

I have set up an access restriction profile by time of day, but it seems that the web sites I list are blocked regardless of the time of day. Does the WAG320N apply the time of day to the blocked URLs or is the time of day only applicable to internet access?

I have had a wag320n for a while and ever since I bought it, The wireless stops functioning after a day or 2, if I save the settings and then restore the settings (even after it has stopped working) then it works again for a day or to then I have to repeat the process.While it was annoying most of my PC's were wired so it wasn't a major issue but in my new place I am mostly wireless so I am well over it already.

I just bought a macbook and want to connect with my WAG320N. I have no problem to connect on 54mbs what tells me that I'm on Wifi G. The settings in my router was on b/g/n so I changed it to just N but then it won't connect. I don't get error or nothing. I just doesn't connect. I tried all different kind of settings but no luck.

I have a small home network using a Linksys WAG320N which acts as the modem (to connect to BT using PPPoA for ADSL) and provides 4 wired 100Mbs network connections along with a wireless N connections. I use WPA2 (personal) to secure the network and have a white list for allowed wireless devices. Everything works fine.In another part of the house (where I can get a good wireless signal) we have the main TV in the house. Here I have a SKY HD box and a small media player. What I would like to do is connect these two devices to the network and running a network cable is not practical, so I thought I would setup a wireless bridge.I tried a TP-Link bridge borrowed from a friend by this failed to work. I now know this to be because the WAG320N does not support WDS.Will a Linksys WES610N connect to my WAG320N to provide me with what I want?
