Linksys Wireless Adapters :: Use WGA54G To Connect Standalone Desktop To Access Router?

Jan 4, 2010

Can I connect a WGA54G (v2.1) to a standalone desktop PC running XP Pro SP3 in order to access a wireless router.  I'm trying to eleminate wires and I have a spare WGA54G so I hated to buy a wireless card for the PC if I don't need to

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 V2 Can't Connect With WGA54G V2 Using WPA

Aug 26, 2012

Been having problems connecting an old WGA54G v2 (firmware 1.16, March 29, 2005) to a new E4200 v2 (firmware 2.0.36) via WPA.  I can get the two to connect using no encryption or WEP but not WPA.  Using WEP is not an option for me,E4200 v2 wireless settings:

1. 5GHz broadcast is off, 2.4 GHz is on.
2. Network Mode - Mixed
3. Security Mode - WPA2/WPA Mixed Mode
4. Channel Width - Auto
5. Channel - Auto
6. Guest Access broadcast is off
 
WGA54G v2 settings:

1. SSID - same as router
2. Network type - Infrastructure
3. Security - enabled
4. Pre-shared key - same as router
5. Encryption - WPA Pre-shared Key, TKIP (tried AES, but still no connection)
 
Also, tried different WPA network modes on the router (Mixed, WPA personal, WPA2 personal etc.) to no avail.  Switched between mixed, B and G network modes as well on e4200 v2 but still no connection. My guess now is that the WPA on the gaming adapter and the WPA on the router are just not compatible, as completely asinine as that sounds.  Thought about updating firmware on the WGA54G v2 but checked in the download section here and the last firmware available is 1.13 (appears older than my 1.16, even though the 1.13 release date listed is a month after my 1.16).

Linksys Wireless Adapters :: WUSB54GS Can No Longer Connect To Router

Jul 7, 2008

I have had no problems with the WUSB54GS connecting to the WRT54GS up until last Friday...it can no longer connect to the router and reports that the network cannot be found.When i refresh the list of available networks i can "see" the router on the wireless PC but when an attempt to connect is made,it fails.OK,i rang up Linksys tech support today and we tried everything possible to work out what the problem was e:g uninstalling/reinstalling the software,updating the routers firmware,disabling security,trying all channels 1 thru 11,using WEP,using WPA,changing SSID name,using secure easy setup,using windows wireless configuration,changing USB leads nothing will make the device connect.

Linksys Wireless Adapters :: WMP600N Wouldn't Connect Unless Rebooted Router

Sep 9, 2012

I have been having problems with my Linksys WMP600N adapter and trying to connect to the internet.It started a few weeks ago in my old house, where it wouldn't connect unless I rebooted the router, or it would take a long time (over half an hour after being turned on to connect.)Then when I moved it got worse.At the moment it finds the wireless signals avaiable to it, but when I click connect it fails very quickly. It doesn't even try and connect, as it doesn't ask me for my wireless password.When I do get it connected, if I reboot the router and mess around, it kicks me off after a while, and then instead of showing the network available to connect to, shows it with a red cross beside, and I have to go and edit the security settings, or delete the profile and try and connect again. I have tried googling, but various different searches have turned up empty handed. My desktop is running Win 7 64bitThe rest of the specs are Core i7 920 CPU, Asus P6T Deluxe v2 Mobo, 12Gig RAM, Asus GTX 670 GPU, a Corsair SSD, 2 1TB HDDs and 1 2TB one.My Windows 7 laptop connects fine, and our Media Centre PC had some problems before I was here, but works fine now too.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRYT54GS - Desktop Does Not Connect With Internet?

Mar 17, 2012

I have a WRYT54GS router. I just got a new high speed internet satalite install. The router works well with two laptops wirelessly. The desk top uses a wireless USB connection, Linksys 2500. The problem is that before the satalite install, the desk top worked well with the card to connect. Now, the card connects with thw router but does not connect with the internet. I have reinstalled the 2500 software and looked at all that I could but it still does not connect with the internet but does with the router. Any one out there have a thought on this

Linksys Wireless Adapters :: WUSB100 Doesn't Connect In N-only Mode To WRT150N Router

Nov 12, 2011

with my Linksys WRT150N router in "N-only" mode, the usb adapter WUSB100 doesn't connect. In the datasheet is written that it is B-G, but also N compatible..[URL] It connects only when the router is on "mixed mode" (B-G-N).
 
The device works great, the only thing is that it doesn't connect to N networks.... cause i think it is not N compatible. When i look for networks, Windows shows me that there is my N network, but when i click connect, after a few seconds, appears "impossible to connect".... but if i set the router on "mixed mode", no problems.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E2000 / Remote Desktop Access With Mac And Asus Transformer Prime?

Jul 31, 2011

I have an E2000 router with the most current firmware. I have a Sony VAio laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit,a Macbook with 10.6.8, and a new Asus Transformer Prime with ICS.My work desktop is a Dell Optiplex 380 with Windows 7 Pro 32bit. I frequently work from home and have no issues remoting into to my work PC from by Sony laptop via VPN and RDP.However I have never been able to connect successfully to my work PC with my Macbook(using Remote Desktop Connection 2.1 for Mac OS) or Asus tablet(using WYSE Pocket Cloud RDP app for Android). I can however connect to the VPN itself on the Macbook and tablet without issue same as my Windows laptop. The other interesting part is I can connect via RDP when I am connected to a Mi-Fi 3g hotspot. So it is definitely something in the my Linksys E2000 blocking the connection for some reason. I have even set Port forwarding of 3389 with the ip's of both the Macbook and Asus tablet.I have also tried connecting via ethernet to the router with the same outcome. I cannot ping my work pc from either device as well.In addition the firewall on my work PC is completely disabled and all services related to Remote desktop access are enabled and running.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E2000 Can't Install Cisco Connect Desktop Software For Mac

Dec 1, 2010

I simply, can't install Cisco Connect.  I want to because it has the parental controls and guest SSID controls.  When I try to install, the progress bar get's to 25% and then stops - the next screen says "Our Customer Support team can help. Your router was not successfully setup." I reset the modem and have my computer plugged in to port 1 while I try to install the software.  I have been able to setup the router manually.  It works great.  My issue is that I can't install Cisco Connect desktop software for Mac.

Cisco Wireless :: AIR-LAP521-G-E-K9 Access Point Configuration In Standalone Mode

how to configure an AIR-LAP521-G-E-K9 wireless access point in standalone mode? I've tried connecting it to a standard 1GB switch, feed it with IP address via DHCP it responds to PING but when it comes to detect it in CCA (3.1) it says unable to connect without even asking for username and/or password. Trying to connect to it through HTTP or HTTPS doesn't work either.

Cisco Wireless :: Aironet 2602e Configuration As Standalone Access Point

Mar 19, 2013

I must configure an Aironet 2602e Access Point, as a standalone access point (without WLC), but I can not find Configuration Guides for that. I have only found the "getting started guide" but there is described an installation combined with a WLC, which I have not. Is it provided no real guidance from Cisco? I did something never done before.

Cisco Wireless :: Aironet 1041N Standalone Access Points Setup Information

Jul 19, 2012

I recently bought 6 airo net 1041N standalone access points for a customer of mine. It's an academy of barely 200 students. I'll be installing an access point in every room, to ensure better signal, since they use video for there classes. The reason why i decided to install an access point in every room is because the walls are armed concrete and they had a terrible experience with a past company in which they spend a lot of money for a antenna system that didn't work.These access points will be connected to a switch, which I have to buy also.Every student is going to bring there own laptops in order to connect to the network.

The reason why I'm writing is because I have a few questions to clarify.  
 
1) What is the best position for better signal, top side wall or corner ceiling?
 
2) How many client mac address filtering  can i do per access point?
 
3)I plan on doing ESSID but can I mac filter clients to a particular access point or should I mac address filter all permitted devices in all access points. The problem is that students come with iPods and phones and as you know on windows they will be able to see the wpa2 key and enter it on the particular UN-authorized device.

4) Any graphic user interface for configuring these access points or do i have to use Cisco IOS(kind of familiar with it)? (I'm used to GUI)

5)How can I configure these access points, through Ethernet browser or do I have to use console port cable?

6)Do I have to use POE injector or can I connect the access points directly to the switch with PoE and QoS?

7)I was planning on buying a small business switch sg100 d-8 but they recommended me that I should use the catalyst 2960 series, which would be best for handling video data? don't have to be much features, just QoS.

8) Can CCp software be used in these access points?

Linksys Wireless Adapters :: No Internet Access With WET610N?

Nov 21, 2012

I have a WET610 that I intend to use to connect a PC to the local network and further on to the Internet. The local connection works, I can ping to and from the computer connected to the WET610 and I can see the other computers, both wired and wireless,  on the network so the wireless connection is ok but I can't connect to the Internet, I can't even ping the DNS I'm using. What can be wrong? All the other computers can access the Internet. The WET610 talks to a wireless AP which in turn is connected to a router

Linksys Wireless Adapters :: AE3000 Will Not Connect?

Sep 9, 2012

I picked up a AE3000 for an older laptop, but it will not connect to any network. It is on an older (01') dell laptop running XP SP3.   I have tried using the disk and downloading the latest drivers on-line but no luck. It picks up all the networks around me and mine, but it says trying to connect and just can't. I tried it on another laptop and everything works fine. Is there an issue with this adapter and the original USB ports or XP in general? I have checked and rechecked the passcodes, I have deleted all of the profiles and started from the beginning again. I removed my anti-virus program as well as the last effort. Nothing I do seems to make a difference though.This is just used to access the internet on a laptop that is dedicated to a telescope.

Linksys Wireless Adapters :: AE1000 Will Not Connect?

Mar 12, 2012

Bought the AE1000. Hooked it up to my desktop computer (Sony VAIO), and it immediately recognized my wireless network in my house. However, when trying to log on, it asks for the network key, which I correctly enter and it attempts to log on, but fails to connect! I have called Linksys, and they claim it is my ISP's fault. I called Comcast (My ISP) and they claim it is a faulty product.

Linksys Wireless Adapters :: New AE2500 Will Not Connect?

Apr 30, 2013

I just moved an older Windows XP Desktop /w Service Pack 3 from my parent's house over to mine after having my laptop fail on me. It was previously connected wirelessly at their house with a Microsoft MN-510 wireless adapter. When I got it up and running at my house, it was not picking up any networks with the MN-510. So I picked up a new AE2500 today, thinking that the ancient MN-510 may be the problem. Plugged it in, threw in the disc and voila, it started picking up Networks. The problem is, It is not connecting to my Network. The router is a Motorola SBG901. I have already disabled the security on the router and made sure that the MAC Filtering is disabled, but it is still not connecting. There has been no other issues with connecting any of our other devices.

Linksys Wireless Adapters :: WUSB54GSC Will Not Connect?

May 23, 2011

I just moved and when I unpacked my ANCENT desktop (circa 2005), the wireless adapter, that had worked with no issues in my last home, would not connect to the internet.  I bought a new one, a My router and internet connection are working just fine, as I am able to get on my laptop with no problems whatsoever.  After doing many online searches and two long chat conversations with Linksys tech support, no one can seem to figure out what the problem is.  The last Linksys person I talked to suggested that it might be the router settings that are preventing my PC from connecting.  My internet provider (who provided the router) confirmed that there is nothing with the settings to prevent me from connecting to any device.
 
This is what happened:  I installed the software with my new adapter.  It worked fine for a day or so until I rebooted my computer.  My friend messed around with it and somehow managed to get it to connect again (he has no recollection of how he did this). 
 
When I clicked on "Find Available Wireless Networks", NOTHING came up even though I knew I had not only my own network available, but others in my range.  I finally managed (with Linksys agent) to stop the Linksys software from managing the connection, and got Wireless Zero Connection to manage the connection.  So now, when I click on my network, I get a little box that says, "Connected!", however in the list of available networks, it shows my network and says "Not Connected".  And of course when I try to connect to the internet it does not work.
 
I can't download a driver because I don't have the ability to hardwire this PC to the internet.  Plus, I got it to work before, so I figure there must be a way for me to get it to work again.

Linksys Router / Desktop Finds Connection But Can't Connect To Network

May 11, 2011

Our Comcast broadband goes to our modem then our router (Linksys) before splitting off to our desktop & our Ooma unit. I run our netbook off of the wireless but the desktop & Ooma are physically connected to two of the router's ports.This afternoon I lost the ability to connect to the internet with the desktop. Ooma works and so does my netbook. The computer finds the connection and says it's working fine when I try to diagnose the problem, but none of my browsers (Chrome, Firefox or IE) are able to connect to the network. Thunderbird and gmail notifier also can not connect.Using command prompt I can successfully ping any website I try.I have tried everything I could think of:

Powered down and restarted PCU
New network card
Disabled Norton
New cord from router to network card
Switched connection so it was directly from modem to PCU
Reinstalled browsers

I don't know what else I can try. The computer is not allowing me to run a system restore. It says that the disk is damaged and must be repaired. But it will not allow me to repair it because the disk is running? It seems to me that there is a setting or security issue that is blocking my access to the network?

Linksys Wireless Adapters :: WRT54G2 - Can't Connect Using Password

Apr 2, 2009

Just got the WRT54G2 and setup it fine with or without encrytion and passwords - however when I setup the other 2 pcs on my network - the only way I can get them setup and going is WITHOUT encryption and password protection - setiing up without encryption on those works fine, but it defeats the purpose of what I'm trying to do.  I was on the phone with Linksys for over an hour and they can't seem to get it to work either - guess they got stumped and after an hour - I was put on hold and then cut off.

Linksys Wireless Adapters :: AE1000 Does Not Connect On Startup?

Dec 30, 2010

Ive been reading the forums up and down about this device and i notice other threads with users having the "Exact" problem im having. Only problem is im noticing a simaalar theme to ech of those threads. The issue doesnt have a resolution.
 
With that said i figured i would give this a try regaurdless. The problem i have is very simple.
 
Windows 7 Yltimate 64 bit.
Motherboard: ASUS M4A785TD-V EVO
Proc: Phenom x6
Ram: 8 Gb
 
Ive tried all USB ports (2.0) on the computer and they all exibit the same said behavior. This being that when you turn the computer off, restart it, or put it to sleep...the AE1000 will not power on and has to be unseated from the USB port and then reseated before the device is seen by the system and then and only then does it fire up, connect and work perfectly.
 
The drivers i have used have been the ones off the CD, Then i removed those and downloaded the ones from the website. These drivers have been installed after removing the entry from device manager manually after attempts to use the normal method resulted in the same behavior.
 
Also i have installed this device on my Dell E6400, Dell D620 Running Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit and 64 bit and they also exibit the same exact behavoir.
