Linksys Wireless Router :: Connecting EA4500 To Samsung 6900 Smart LED
Jan 29, 2013
I have been trying to connect my smart tv to my wireless network for the last 3 weeks. It connects intermittently but the connection is always lost within a few minutes to a couple hours. I have turned off all of the firewalls, and all other devices connect fine. It is an ea4500 running on updated firmware and a Samsung 6900 smart tv. The connection works if I run an ehternet cable to it oith from the modem as well as from the router, but it does not work over the wireless connection.
i have recently purchased samsung smart tv 8 series, but when i try connecting it to internet by lan/ wan it says connected to router but not able to connect to internet contact your isp. though sometimes it connects and then goes to the previous status in short time. i am using leoxsys 54 g-dl 54madsl2+router and i have bsnl ul750 plan.both samsung and bsnl tell its not problem on their side. i am able to access internet on other devices through the same.
I ran the upgrade program this morning to upgrade my EA4500 to use the cloud based software. The router is back online and everything appears ok but the program is still running and the progress is sitting at 95%. It's been like this for the past 15 minutes.
Last Sunday, I put lots of music files into usb storage, a external harddrive linked to EA4500. which is WD element 3T.Last Wednesday, I re-organize file folders. And then yesterday(Friday), I found all my files were lost.
I use the Smart Wi-Fi app on my iPad3 (IOS 6.1.3) to access my EA4500 remotely.When I want to add a port forwarding, it shows always 192.168 as start of the ip address related to the ports. But I have a 10.71 network installed and cannot change the 192.168 to 10.71. I suppose this is a bug.
I just purchased the EA4500 router and went through the setup with no issues. The only problem is I cannot access the router either locally or through the Smart Wifi dashboard. Everytime I go to the page with "Access Router", enter the password and clikc the "Submit" button it does nothing...no incorrect password prompt or idle prompt...almost like the page is broken somehow. I've done all of the usual, restart router, restart PC, restart cable modem, etc. and always having the same result.
I purchased this Router about 2 weeks ago as a phased upgrade of our Home Network, primarily to enhance media streaming. It has the latest firmware preinstalled from the factory. Prior to the purchase and installation of the EA4500 Router I replaced my old Motorola SurfBoard SB6120 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem with a Motorola SurfBoard SB6141 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem. My old Linksys E2000 Router worked perfectly with the SB6141, with the exception that the E2000 wasn’t IPv6 enabled, but does have 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet (RJ-45) and Internet ports.
The EA4500 has been installed for about 10 days and seems to have improved local network speeds and I don’t seem to be having any Internet connectivity issues. However, there are some disturbing issues with the EA4500 and the AE3000 I purchased. There are 11 devices connected through the Router; a Dell Desktop (wireless with the AE3000), a Dell Desktop (Ethernet), a Dell Laptop (wireless), 2 Canon Printers (1 Ethernet and 1 Wireless), 2 Western Digital 1TB MyBookLive Network Drives (both Ethernet), a WD TV Live Streaming Media Player (wireless), an Apple TV media player (wireless), an iPad (wireless), and an Android Smartphone (wireless).
Issue 1 – The Linksys Smart Wi-Fi interface appears to be unreliable at times!!! I’ve read about this problem here on the Community involving the EA6500, so I don’t know if this is a Linksys Server issue, as suggested in a few responses, or a bug in the Router firmware, or defective hardware. However, when the interface locks up, it can’t be accessed from a wireless or wired connection. Usually, powering down the Router and then powering it back up and restart will allow it to function again. However, at times before the interface completely locks up it shows either just a white screen or the security screen will show no firewall features enabled. This is a little scary, so I’ll do a complete reset and setup; this is becoming a pain in the rear! Is there any hope for this being fixed, in this Router, not the next generation?
Issue 2 - All of my network devices show up in the Router’s Device List. Except for the Apple devices they also show up, when they are online, in Windows 7 Explorer under Network and when you click on Network they are correctly displayed as Computers, Media Devices, Network Infrastructure, or Storage. However, when you click on “Open Network and Sharing Center” and then click on “See Full Map”; it fails with the response “Windows cannot create the network map. Responses from other devices on the network are delayed or there is an incompatible router on the network”; no device map is shown. When I follow the link for more information, the only thing that stands out is “A device on the network, such as a hub or switch, is not working properly or is not compatible with the Link Layer Topology Discovery (LLTD) protocol, which Windows uses to create the map. To fix this problem, disable the device, turn it off, or remove it from your network”. All of my network devices showed up on the Network Map with the old E2000. This issue is the same on all of my computers, either wired or wireless.
I’m having with the EA4500 and the AE3000; they are both probably going back to Amazon.
I am using a EA4500 and use Linksys Smart Wi-Fi to manage the device. In the household we have multiple Apple i devices. Somehow the Linksys Smart Wi-Fi combined two separte i devices (iPhone 5 and a 4th generation iTouch) to one user.The devices actually have different names, but the Smart Wi-Fi is combining them into one device. So I can't use Parental Controls on one of the devices.
I just setup my new Cisco EA4500 and upgraded to latest firmware and signed up for my account.Local access to the router works fine and I see the Smart Wi-Fi admin/config interface However when I try to go to the following site: url...To access Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Tools, your router <em>requires</em> the <a href="url...Series Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Firmware</a> and you will need to associate your router with your Linksys Smart Wi-Fi account.On a computer or device connected to your router, open url... and follow the instructions. This requires that you enter the router password so have that ready.
However I see no way to perform the association step - my account exists and my router is configured.I am doing all this behind this router wi-fi network not remotely.
I purchased an Samsung UE46ES6300 Smart TV for my Boyfried for Christmas & we are struggling to connect it to our WiFi to use the features. Obviously I went through the procedures - Network settings, found my WiFi, typed in my Network password & unfortunately states: 'Unable to connect to the Wireless Router'. Taking into account my Virgin Media Router is directly next to my TV? The Wireless & Internet is 100% working as we have other devices running of it - I-pad, Laptop, Phones etc!
Just purchased an E900 wireless router and cannot figure out how to connect my Samsung wireless printer. The printer has a WPS button, but the router does not. The router wants me to input information into the Samsung printer, but the printer has no screen, and I cannot find a place to input the router info anywhere in the Samsung software. I am going crazy here...I'm not a techie, but I'm also not a complete technology idiot.
I get a great wired connection but when I try for wireless the Samsung says I have a great connection, except when I try to use the Apps from the Blu Ray it tells me, No Internect Conncetion. Samusung support tells me I need to "open the ports" on my E3000 and make the Blu Ray a priority...I don't know how to do that.
I'm having trying to connect my Samsung Smart TV to the Internet.I purchased the Samsung EH5300 yesterday and have connected it to my router (ZyXEL P-660HW-T1) via Ethernet. This works fine and picks up all the settings (ie: IP address, gateway etc) automatically and I can connect to the Internet fine.The problem comes when I then connect any device to the router using Wi-Fi - this could be my iPad, iPhone, PC, laptop - anything will disconnect the wired TV connection immediately from the Internet but it DOES NOT disconnect it from the network. In other words, I can still see the TV in the list of devices on my router and still ping the IP from my PC. All the settings on the TV remain the same but when running the network test, it says it is connected to the network but not the Internet.I have disconnected all cables, reset the router, turned everything off and on several times, placed the Ethernet cable in different ports on the router, manually input all the IP addresses etc but none of it is working.
I would rather have wireless to wireless . Like I said I have a new EA4500 trying to extended my wireless connection to my back yard still having the same trouble of small to no signal, I have a Belkin N+ Ver.2 that I had been using with the same trouble. I would like to connect the belkin N+ to the EA4500 to extend my wi-fi to my back yard and back half of my house.
I am trying long distance to set up above router. Router communicates fine with laptop and wifi printer but when she tries to connect her iphone (I think iphone4), phone states that password is incorrect. She is using the same password that she used for the printer and laptop which is the router default one which is a series of mixed numbers and letters.
I just purchased a Linksys EA 4500.I set up the wifi properly, with laptops, tablets, smartphones and printer. The wifi network worked fine for a couple of days.But now one of the laptop "refuses" to see the Linksys wifi network. The other devices are still connected and running regularly.
The notebook that does not connect anymore is an ACER 5740DG with an Atheros Network adapter and Windows 7 installed. This notebook is otherwise running fine.At the beginning it was connecting ok and we never had any problem at all with the previous router Belkin_N+_7991AC, that I changed just for speed.
Now the Linksys network is simply not visible to such notebook in the "Available Connections List" that I get clicking on the WiFi icon in the bottom right, while a number of other wifi networks (not mine) are clearly visible. Of course I restarted the notebook properly. For one time I got the visibility of the Linksys, I entered the password and then it was not possible to see the network anymore.No error message from Smart WiFi software.
I have an Apple time capsule and Samsung Smart TV. I set up the wireless connection, checked the status on the TV, connected. When I try to open something in the Smart TV, it says I'm not connected.
I'm trying to network my Windows 8 media player and a samsung Smart TV... My computer is running a USB adapter for wireless, and I have just plugged in a Wireless extender. The TV doesn't last long before it losses the connection to the computer.
I'm currently living in an apartment on my school's campus and I'm using their network for all my internet needs and such.One of my roommates recently bought a new Samsung Smart TV Model:PN59D8000F.The wireless here sucks so we've been hooking the ethernet up to the tv for internet access.It was working fine at first, but then all options on the tv requiring a network shut down. Now, when we first arrive at school our laptops are put into a remediation mode to make sure we have virus protection and all that good stuff, and I believe that might be what is happening with the tv's internet access.Not exactly sure,
TL;DR Tv is capable for internet access but network wont let it connect
I am trying to connect my Samsung TV to the internet and keep getting a message that says NEtwork setup complete, but cannot connect to the internet. I am wondering, I have 2 network connections, a secure one and unsecure. I don't have the information/password for the secure connection anymore, so I am trying to set my TV up with the unsecure network.
every-time i try to play a file directly from my computer through the network to my Samsung tv downstairs regardless of the file format it says file format no supported though when i plug the same file in with the usb directly through the back of the TV it plays the without a hitch
To connect my new "smart tv" with my wireless linsys WRT610N, smart tv ask to take off all protection such as firewall and antivirus. Doing so, I cannot connect my laptop with my router. Is there a solution to connect both at the same time?
I have been trying to enable the Smart WiFi account for my EA6500 router. I have gone online and established a Smart WiFi account but am unable to associate my EA6500 with the account. I downloaded the tool off the Linksys support site but received the following error message:Error code: 0x82BF010CError description: The connected gateway is not a router.Model name: EA6500Model description: unknownSerial number: unknownFirmware version: unknownOperating system: Windows 7 (64-bit) SP 1Software version: 2.0.12332.0Connection type (WAN): unknownIP address (LAN): 192.168.1.254IP address (WAN): unknownComputer IP address: 192.168.1.67? I have DHCP disabled on the EA6500.
I recently purchased a smart phone that can use my wireless access to get to the internet, however the phone cannot connect. I have verified that I am using the correct password and it is finding the network just fine, it just can't connect. I have had this problem with my laptops as well, but with them I just copied the key to a USB key and used that to get them going. I don't have that ability with the smart phone.
how to best troubleshoot this issue and resolve it? I have also reset the router to allow anonymous internet access with no positive result there either.
I have a nest in the house and upgraded my router because nest is very picky with what routers it works with..something to do with power save mode and NAT settings Read here.well the linksys was working just fine with the nest until I upgraded the firmware to the smart wifi thing...it's a EA2700 btw.
I am new to the forum and Linksys products. i have always been a Netgear fan. What brings me to Linksys is the Smart WIFI parental controls. My children have iPod touch and Kindle Fire. I want to "manage" the content (Youtube, internet, etc..) on these devices. I want to be able to control when they have access to the WIFI and when they don't. Another words, I want to go the router web interface and find the device and turn OFF the connection without affecting the rest of the house.
I was looking at EA6500 router as a pontential new router. Would this router give me the control I need?
I've just updated my router (E4200v2) to the smart wi-fi firmware and it seems I can only properly access it in the "local" mode (by that I mean that I can edit some of the properties such as wifi settings).If I try to login through the cloud / smart wifi account i only get the empty screen, no options, no widgets, nothing (see the included picture).
I connected my router to a new computer. The computer is connected to the Internet.My SmartPhone won't connect via the router.
I logged in to the router from my cell and entered the password.The cell says the following over and over without connecting: ScanningObtaining IP address from routerDisconnectedConnectingScanning ... over & overHow can I connect my Samsung GAlaxy SII Skyrocket to my WiFi router [WRT54GS]?
Do I need to portforward a port for logging into my Linksys EA6500 smart wifi router from outside home? I can only login when I'm om LAN or wifi..Another question: Can I only login to the same router using an app? Isn't there a way to login via browser?
