Linksys Wireless Adapters :: WET54GS5 Not Accessible After Inactivity?
Apr 15, 2012
I hadn't used this device (version 1) for a couple of years. After that much time and many changes in my home network, once again I need it to connect a printer. I pushed the reset button and followed the initial setup directions. So far so good.
Then I followed directions for using it on my network. Also good. I can access the bridge's web server and I can send jobs to the printer.
My problem is, after a period of inactivity (say, over night) I can no longer access the printer or the bridge. The only way I have found to get them back is to power-cycle the bridge. Some data ...
My router is a WRT320N. It manages DHCP and reserves a fixed IP address for the bridge.The bridge connects to a wireless network managed by an Apple Airport Extreme 802.11. It is connected directly to the router. Yes, I have two WiFi networks. No, I have not yet tried the bridge on the router's network.The LEDs on the bridge are the same, accessible or not.The printer is an OKI c3400n.

I have a WET54GS5 that I can't setup:
I am running Vista and have the bridge connected to a WRTP54G wireless router...I have also turned with Windows firewall OFF. My network has been setup properly and all other components work fine.
I have tried the setup CD, but get the "The Setup Utility was unable to locate a Wireless G Ethernet bridge..." message.
I have also held the reset button for 30+ seconds and tried to log into the bridge directly using the IP addy (192.168.1.226)

how to tweak my laptop so that the wireless access does not get disabled after a short period (approx 15 min) of inactivity. It's really annoying to have to reconnect every time this happens.
Using an Atheros AR9285 wireless card in an Asustek N61Jv laptop.

Here's what I have WAN->SonicWall->E1200 Basically the E1200 is given a static IP for it's WAN that is in the range of the Sonic Wall's DMZ interface, and the DMZ interface is the default gateway of the E1200. When wireless clients connect to the E1200 they get internet access with no issues and they are on a separate network (which is intended). The issue I have is if I get on a computer that is on the Sonic Wall's LAN network, which is able to route to the DMZ network, I am unable to ping the E1200 or perform remote management (turned on in the E1200). There are phone devices that are on the DMZ network that I can ping from the LAN network. I need to be able to remotely manage the E1200?

2 linksys routers a E1000 (fw v2.1.02) and a E4200 (fw v1.0.03) aren't accessable via HTTPS. Both via LAN https://router-ip and via wan https://isp-router-ip:8080 . Both routers are configured correctly (allready did a rerstore to fact. defaults. while having a chat with linksys live chat support). Everything without a result.
Ie9 doesn't accept the linksys/cisco certificate. after the first warning ie9 just sais that it's unable to show the page .
I did some testing and found that it doesn't work with a win7 +IE9 (up to date updates) and also not on a win XP +IE8 (up to date updates), win XP +chrome (up to date updates).
And it works on a old image (virtual Pc) of WIN XP- IE6 (no up to date updates) and win XP(up to date updates) +firefox (older version) .
i tried to export the certificate using the xp-ie6 virtual pc. and import it else where, but that works within the lan. Over the WAN it's a " NO GO" . Is this a " Microsoft" or a " linksys/cisco" issue?

I am no longer able to access the "EBay" website while working on my wireless router. I have 3 personal computers, a laptop, 3 android smartphones & 2 ipod touch's. They all work fine, from my wireless router.I have the WRT54GS ver. 6.
The problem started with not being able to access EBay. I called the EBay people. Then, I called my local Internet Service Provider. There were at least 10 phone calls, to each. Then, I called the Linksys people. The lady told me that I had an outdated router and that I needed to get a new one. Well, I had previously bought the most expensive one I could get, said it was for "optimum" movie & gaming from Cisco.

I have connected a Seagate Free Agent 500GB to the USB port of my E4200 and while it does work fine, When the drive has been idle for a while, it goes into power saving mode, turning the spindle motor off. This means it takes a few seconds to access the disk. Not a problem, but apparently, those few seconds are enough for either Windows or the E4200 to decide that the disk is no longer accessible. The share is still available, but I get missing folders and files, files won't open or are not found, and backups job with Acronis True Image will fail because it thinks the share is unavailable.Sometimes, constantly refreshing the view and opening files at random will revive the share, but often, the only way to get it back is to restart the computer.
The problem is definitely related to the power saving. If I leave a video clip playing or similar, so there's always some disk access preventing the drive from entering power save mode, it works fine. But 15-20 minutes of no disk activity immediately causes problems.

I am experiencing one, possibly two problems with the X3000, firmware release v1.0.03:
1. When enabling guest mode, the internal network is not accessible via WLAN even for clients NOT connected via guest mode but regularly: Even non-guests but regularly connected clients can't access any internal IP but the router itself. netscan shows only the very client's IP and the router's. Only after switching guest mode entirely off, regularly connected clients can access interal IP again. netscan correctly shows the whole network. Obviously a firmware bug. BTW: Clients connected via cable do not experience this problems.
2. I am not sure about this, but after using the firmware built in "Reboot" button, the router reboots correctly. But for some reason, it is instable afterwards. It is operational for a few seconds but then reboots again. It keeps cycling. I could stop it by switching the router off and on again.

I am using InnoMedia MTA6328-1Be2S from Reliance and D-link DIR-600 for sharing internet connection. I have a strange problem here after using internet for sometime..I will not be able to use internet unless I shut down and restart both Innomedia and D-link.I tried changing configurations in D-link but with no luck. I lost the connection no matter I am using wireless or wired mode.I do not know how to login to InnoMedia MTA6328-1Be2S as well.

i have 2 1260 Access points one is in root mode , one is wgb mode. Authentication is EAPFAST. There are 5 devices connected via WGB bridge to the rest of the network.
- If clients are sending some data , then WGB AP announces this client mac via IAPP to root AP and rest of the network sees them correctly
- If clients are "passive" , then after WBG AP announces them to root AP , they timeout after 6 minutes on root AP and obviously they are not pingable from the rest of the network. The only way to restore connectivity is to ping that device from WGB AP, then WGB AP announces via IAPP to root AP , then and only then they become visible from the rest of the network.
My question is related to this 6 minute timeout on root AP . Is it normal behaviour ?

I am using a Cisco ASA 5510. Our tunnels always drop due to inactivity, which is a security issue I understand, and it only takes some "interesting traffic" to bring it back up. My problem is that it looks like the interesting traffic has to originate from my side of the tunnel, when our clients send traffic and the tunnel is down due to inactivity it does not come back up. Is there a setting that I am overlooking that will make it come back up no matter who sends traffic? Or, is there a way to make it stay up through inactivity?

I have VPN Gateway to Gateway VPN tunnels set from my central office to four remote sites. The tunnels have always been problematic. Started out with five Linksys RV042 v2 devices these had problems with handshake, sometimes would disconnect during this process and had to click disconnect button on either device and this wouold force the tunnel to rebuild. Recently upgrade central device to a Cisco RV042 v3 device. Good news is that this seems to have corrected the handshake issue but now each of the remote sites are having problems during periods of inactivity losing tunnel. The staff at the remote site indicate that they have to close out application and restart router to rebuild the tunnel.
All tunnels are Gateway to Gateway static IP addresses. They all will connect and behave as expected until they reach a certian period of inactivity. I have searched all over Cisco, Linksys, and Google have seen problems similar but no consistant or logical solutions so I thought since I am slowly upgrading my network from my initial equipment which was truely purchased based on cost alone to adding more Cisco equipment. However since this is among the first of my upgrade moves and the improved equipment is creating more problems than my older less expensive equipment I needed a solution to the problem before submitting additional PO's to upgrade switches and firewall products.

We had an issue the other day where doing backups through the firewall (don't ask) caused the "control" session to timeout while the backups were still going on over the "data" connection. This broke the backup about two hours into the job. My first thought was that the backup solution vendor should implement some kind of tcp keepalive for the control connection. A packet capture showed they indeed were -- after 2 hours! Ah ha! Busted! How could they choose such a poor choice of TCP keepalive timer for their application that would not be compatible with the 60 minute inactivity timer that so many firewall vendors use (Cisco, Juniper, Checkpoint and Fortinet all use a default 60 minute inactivity timer for TCP)?
Well, a colleague of mine pointed out that there is actually an old RFC that covers this. RFC 1122. It says:
Keep-alive packets MUST only be sent when no data or acknowledgement packets have been received for the connection within an interval. This interval MUST be configurable and MUST default to no less than two hours.
Now I know that RFC is old (October 1989), but that's all I could find. Is there something that supercedes that? Maybe common sense perhaps? I understand not wanting to fill up your connection table because of mis-behaving applications, but I'm just looking for ammunition to use against the backup solution vendor. Surely they're going to point to this RFC.
ASA(config)# timeout conn ?
configure mode commands/options:
0:0:0 | <0:5:0> - <1193:0:0> Idle time after which a TCP connection state
will be closed, default is 1:00:00
<0-0> Specify this value to never time out

default inactivity connection time out for A3(1.0) So by defult any tcp connection(http or https) will be timed out in an hour. [code]Was this change in the A4(2.0) code or is it still the same? I heard a TAC engg say that default inactivity timeout for http and https are now 5 mins that is 300 seconds.

We have a RV042. remote management is set to DISABLE - but even after restarting the router i can access the interface remotely over the internet.even when i enable it and change the port to say 5555 i can connect to the web interface using either port 5555 but ALSO on port 80.what's wrong here?the only way to stop that was to create a rule that blocks port 80 on the WAN interface. (btw. could this rule affect LAN users when browsing the web?)

I run the CD setup disk and the driver install correctly.In the "Connecting the Adapter" screen I click next before connecting the adapter,the setup screen just close with out any notification and no icons on the system tray.I shut down the machine, insert the adapter and power on the machine,now I have the monitor icon and a wireless connection icon in the system tray (the Power led is green and the Link led isblink),when I double click on the monitor icon I got the following screen: no available wireless and the refresh, connect and manual setup are disabled.when I click on the "open the monitor" form the right click menu I got the following screen: also nothing to do on this screen.so I think it's was because I don't have any wi-fi around me, I shutdown the computer raise my wi-fi andrestart the machine, now the led in the same status but the system tray icons didn't appears and when Itry to open it from the menu it's run for few seconds without any screen and disappear.

I'm running Windows 7-64 bit. The AE1000 works great so far, in the one day I've had it, and it appears to start itself and connect when turning the computer on (unlike other people on here that I've seen). BUT, it's all pointless if I can't put my computer into standby. The adapter kicks it right back out as soon as I try to sleep the computer.
I've checked the device settings and "allow the device to wake the computer" is unchecked (in fact, it's grayed out). I rarely turn off the computer; I much prefer to just put it in standby. I don't want to have to unplug the adapter every time I do that.

I recently re-installed Windows on my PC, and I had the Wireless-G PCI Adapter installed before I done the re-installation.Now I've re-installed Windows, the adapter doesn't work. Do I have to re-do the whole process again? Also, I didn't actually install it myself, so any detailed step-by-step tutorial?

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.

I had a hard drive failure recently and replaced my HDD with an identical HDD (WD 500 AAKS) and did a restore from my WD Passport Essential. Everything works as before except I can't install my AE1000 wireless adapter. The OS recognizes the new hardware and I attempt instalation form the setup CD. Istallation goes until it gets to the "Installing" step and then it just stays there forever until it comes back with an error. I am accessing the internet now through a cat 5 ethernet hook-up.

I am having some trouble getting my computer with Windows XP to use the Linksys model WMP54G wireless - G PCI adapter to connect to the network in my house. I have installed the hardware and the drivers. When I open the view available wireless networks window my network shows up with two bars of strength. But when I select this network and click connect, I get an error message saying "Windows is unable to connect to the selected network. The network may no longer be in range. Please refresh the list of available networks, and try to connect again." I have other computers connecting to this wireless network without any problem. The wireless router I am using is the model WRT150N wireless
