Linksys Wireless Router :: E1200 Can't Acquire IP Address From Cable Modem

Apr 9, 2013

Reset to factory defaults. DHCP turned on. Status page shows black for router IP, gateway, and DNS addresses. Powered router+cable modem on/off multiple times already. I also have another wifi router (WRT120N) and it works fine.
 
Pretty simple connection. Just a ethernet cable between the cable modem and E1200 internet port (Cable modem <---> E1200)

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA6500 Doesn't Ask For IP Address From Cable Modem

Sep 26, 2012

Attempting to get EA6500 working with TWC Motorola Surfboard SBV5220 modem, which has been working just fine for the last 2 years with a Linksys E3000 router.  DHCP client in the EA6500 either doesn't ask for an IP address from the cable modem or the modem just isn't supplying one.  With the E3000, you could see the IP address assigned by the cable modem and the primary and secondary DNS server addresses provided, and if the DHCP request didn't work, these addresses would be all zeroes.  But, with the EA6500, I can't find an equivalent screen that shows these assignments, or zeroes when the DHCP request fails.

Linksys Cable / DSL :: Hookup ATT DSL Modem With E1200?

Apr 22, 2013

I presently have ATT DSL Motorola modem (Model 2210-02-1022) with (1) DSL Green plug, and (2) Ethernet-Yellow in the back of my modem.I have reset the E1200 Router, and tried multiple ways of getting the Wi-Fi to work.  This Linksys E1200 belonged to my neighbor, but he recently passed away, and left me all his computer devices.In the Wall phone jack, I have a DSL noise filter as part as a two female plug,

1) for the Green DSL on Modem, and the other

2) to my phone handset. The way I usually plug this in BEFORE this router was this: The green DSL plug from Modem - into phone jack DSL Filter, and the Yellow ETHERNET cord from Router to the back of Computer. I powered on computer, plugged in all cords, except for E1200 power cord, disabled antivirus/security software,  I then inserted the Cisco Connect CD and waited , and waited, but it said I was not connected to the Internet.  ERROR CODE# 82BD0304. I'm using win7 64 Pro.  before i called ATT, I wanted to know if there is an easier way to conect the right cords to the right plugs.

Linksys Wireless Adapters :: WPC54G V1.2 Can't Acquire Network Address

Jan 31, 2012

Have an old laptop running XPSP2 with a WPC54G V1.2 card that I use for email when traveling.  Had no problems accessing my old home network that ran off of a WRT54G V 5.0 wireless router, nor with any of the "motel wireless networks" when I travel.  I changed ISPs and now have an Actiontec PK5000 wireless router.
 
When I attempt to connect I get an error message "unable to acquire network address."
 
This new router has the following 64 bit and 128 bit settings
 
wpa-wpa2 personal
wpa personal
wpa2 personal
wep
security off
 
Using any of the security settings I get the error.  Turning off security allows me to connect fine.
 
I realize this is a pretty old wireless card so is it possible it doesn't work with the current encryption standards but I would have thought that wep would have worked.  The driver for the card is V3.3.15.0 which is also old.  Would updating the driver work and if so what driver? If a new card is the only way any recommendations for an inexpensive card?

Belkin Wireless Router - Way To Acquire IP Address

Mar 25, 2012

I have a Belkin wireless router attached to my computer. It was set up as an access point, with an IP address of 192.168.0.254. I had some problems with the network today and could not access this unit by typing in the IP in my browser. I feel certain that is the IP address I put in it when setting it up, as I have a record I kept of all the settings. Is there a way to retrieve the IP address to verify that is what it is set to?

Linksys Wireless Adapters :: WMP300N Couldn't Get WAN IP Address From ISP's Cable Modem

Jan 12, 2012

there could be complications, but it appears the WPM300N is 'bad'?my wife's computer (XP SP3) recently started freezing at random times. Once while surfing she got a BSOD. The last few days it had gotten much worse, sometimes the freeze occuring during the boot process, and again at random points.
 
What I tried was determing all new s/w installs and deleting them still didn't fix the problem. Next I used some Norton Ghost back-ups restoration from the time period she had the freezes... still was freezing. Next an image from long ago and it still froze. Got me thinking it was h/w related. She has a wireless mouse and keyboard. Put in wired units, still froze.
 
A few days ago my router died. It couldn't get a WAN IP Address from the ISP's cable modem. ISP verified the modem was working by having me attach directly to it one of my wired computers. This router was a new (2 months old) ASUS RT-N56U. I put back my old LinkSys WRT600N. In doing so I had to change the passphrase. This turned out to be a big assist to me determining what went wrong.
 
On each of the restores of an image, the system never froze, not until I connected to the router by giving the proper passphrase, but usually after that. When it happened (I did multiple image restores) when I was in Safe Mode with Network as it was connecting, the implication was clear it was the WMP300N.
 
As luck would have it, I had another card taken out of my old computer. Put that card in and so far, he computer has NOT frozen up. I've restored all the deleted items and Windows Updates and all other Updates (Norton ISS, Flash, Adobe) and it is running fine.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1200 Cloning MAC Address But Not PC's

Mar 23, 2013

My ISP requires MAC authentication on the router for internet access. They provide the router, and register that router to their access list.I'm not very happy with the router they provided, so I'm planning to buy a E1200 and clone my current router's MAC address. But when I checked the interface of this router, the mac cloning page has a button saying "Clone my PC's MAC". And in the FAQ page of E1200 it says that the router can automatically capture the MAC address of the PC. Which is not what I want to do.I want to manually input my older router's MAC address into this router to clone it.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1200 Causing Modem To Reset?

Nov 28, 2011

I set up an E1200 about two weeks ago to replace our old DI-524 because our net speeds were getting throttled (the old router wouldn't support anything higher than 10mbps). The same day, we started getting modem resets (We have an SB6120). This never happened on the old router but it's constantly happening with this new one. It'll happen multiple times a day. I called Cox Tech Support and they pushed an upgrade onto the modem but it still reset. I don't think it's the router, since I don't understand why it would force the modem to reset, but this never happened before I installed it. The firmware is updated to the latest version on the Cisco site (1.0.02).

Linksys Wireless Router :: Connecting E1200 To Speedtouch 546 Modem?

Mar 6, 2012

My parents are using a speedtouch 546 modem for their wired internet connection, but they would like wireles in their home. I therefore bought them a linksys e1200, and tried to get their wireless internet working.
 
I connected the e1200 to the speedtouch via kabel, used the cisco software to install the wifi network, and so far so good. The laptop has no problem connecting to the e1200, but no internet connection, whatever I do.
 
There seems to be a signal comming into the back of the e1200, since the led on both the speedtouch and the e1200 are responding, indicating that the two are sharing some information.
 
Looking for information on the net, I came onto 3 possible solutions.
 
One is cloning the MAC adress of the to the speedtouch connected wired computer to the e1200. The second has something to do with interfering IP adress ranges. The third was uninstalling the cisco software, reconnecting and resetting the modem. Let windows find the hardware and just install the e1200 drivers.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1200 Not Detecting Internet Cable

Dec 2, 2012

I purchased the E1200 Linksys Wireless Router on 11/26/12.  The router worked fine until today.  Without reason, the router stopped reading the internet cable/the port on the router stopped detecting the signal from the cable connected to the modem.  I can plug the cable from the modem directly into a laptop and the laptop picks up the signal (using it to write this).  I swapped out several DSL cables to confirm it wasn't a cable issue and it does not  make a difference.  I tried rebooting the router, resetting the router, and yet nothing works.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1200 Can't Setup MAC Address Filtering

Sep 12, 2011

The browser-based settings utility for my E1200 can't setup MAC address filtering. I go to the "Wireless MAC Filter" page and enable MAC filtering.When I click the “wireless client list” button, a new window opens saying “IE cannot display the webpage”. This always happens when I have a wireless connection active.When there are no active connections, then IE properly displays the MAC address table, but it is empty since there aren't any computers connected to the router.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1200 Not Working After Verizon Modem Change?

Jun 24, 2012

I have a new Linksys E2100 that was working well with an old Verizon modem. Then recently that modem gave up the ghost and I was issued another one (Westel Model 6100G). I have no problems with internet connectivity when connecting directly from my harddrive to the Verizon modem. I am also not having trouble connecting to the Linksys routher as I am able to see my wireless connection with no problem. However, when I try to set up the connnection with the E2100 in the loop (yes, it's connected correctly) I no longer have internet access.I tried de-installing and re-installing the Linksys software (thinking maybe there was some new configuration that would be auto-detected with a new set-up), but this didn't work. I suspect that if the problem is with my Linksys router and not with my Verizon modem that there might be something that could be done to reconfigure something manually but I do not know enough about connections and wireless systems to trust myself not to mess something up.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1200 Slow Wifi But Not When Connected By Cable

Aug 14, 2012

The wireless router, which is a linksys E1200 is completely new. I setup the entire wireless and there was no problems on that front.The problem is the wireless connection. Even when I am within a few inches of the router, I couldn't even load a youtube video properly. It buffers every 2 seconds. But when I plug the cable into my computer, it works completely fine. The signal strength is excellent all the time.

I tried using inSSIDer to look for the number of connections within my area for the one with the least inteference and found that I'm already on the good one, or actually, all of them looked more or less the same. But I tried changing anyways from 1 to 6 to 11, and none of them made a difference.I then tried changing my Wireless Security to WPA2 Personal. Then I tried changing the Wireless Network Mode to Wireless-G Only instead of Mixed and the wireless speed increased.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1200 - Cascading From A Modem / Router?

Jun 27, 2012

I have a wireless modem/router combo right now provided to me by Centrylink, its the Q1000. I am trying to hook up a 2nd router to our network to extend range and allow extra ethernet connections points. The new (2nd) Router is a  Linksys E1200. I have been told by multiple sources it should be possible to hook the Linksy's router to the modem/router, but I am still not sure how to. All of the directions I have read involve disconnecting the old router (in my case, the Q1000) and then connecting the new router (E1200) in order to configure it. But I am not sure how to do this with out the internet access provided by the old router. how to cascade like this while using a modem/router

Cable Modem To DLink Router Can't Find IP Address

May 2, 2011

we were happily getting along with our RCN cable Motorola modem and DLink wireless 655 until the last couple of weeks. The internet would intermittently not be available, without warning. First couple of times we power cycled the modem and router, and it worked, but then stopped being available altogether. I got some support from RCN, the cable provider (they own the modem and it's old, so naturally that was my first thought). I now have a new modem and the situation is exactly the same. The error message that I get is that the IP address for the network cannot be found.

I got internet access by bypassing the router, connecting the modem directly to my (Windows XP) PC, releasing and renewing the IP address, and power cycling the modem. However, the internet still intermittently shuts down, and of course turning off the computer necessitates the whole procedure again. And now we have no wireless. Should we assume it's the router, and a new one would solve our problem? Of do we just need to reset the IP address of the router?

Linksys E1200 Router Will Not Connect Online With 7500 Modem

Oct 24, 2011

Internet went out for 3 days straight and calling frontier about 20 times they finally gave us a new model 7500 modem to replace the previous. The linksys e1200 router which had worked perfectly fine before the new modem has decided to not allow me to connect online. Sometimes it says im connected to internet but web browser does not connect, sometimes it says no internet access. I have no idea what i am doing so im not sure if it is a modem or router issue. I have done full reboots of both and powered on correctly. plugging in the modem into ports 1-3 do not light up the modems ports lights, only port 4 seems to light up when plugged in however computers light up all the ports when hard wired to E1 - E4.i also downloaded the latest firmware update for the linksys e1200 router.All fire walls are shut off and no WEP ( we live in middle of nowhere so a key is not needed )

Linksys E1200 Router Will Not Assign IP Address To WMP11 Computer?

The desktop has a WMP11 wireless PCI card. I have had trouble using this card in the past but have always managed to solve connectivity issues. This time, I am unable to connect to the internet. Although I can detect the network signal, the network will not assign my computer an IP address. Also, when I first switched routers, I got a message saying I did not have the proper certificate to connect to the network

Wireless Speed Lagging - Slow To Acquire Network Address

May 25, 2012

My network key was changed recently, and it took a few tries for my laptop to connect, but when it did it was fine. Then the key was changed again, and now my wireless is wonky. Sometimes it can't find the network, other times it will find it but then can't acquire a network address, and if it does manage to connect (sometimes it will as soon as I click 'Cancel' when it's taking forever to get the address) it starts slowing down and then speeding up again. The settings have not changed on anything, other than the network key.

Linksys Cable / DSL :: Can't Get A New IP From ISP When Cable Modem EPC3925 Is Set To Router Mode

Mar 23, 2012

I can't get a new IP from my ISP when my Cable modem router(EPC3925) is set to router mode, i have tried factory restore, unplugged etc..but still no luck. It changes each time i reset it when i set it to bridged only mode but then i won't be able to connect other devices to it since it doesn't uses DHCP in bridged only mode. It changes back to the IP i had when i set it to router mode. I don't want to change my router settings to bridged only because it would disconnect the other devices in my house. Why my ISP assigns the same IP address when it's set to router mode but assigns different IPs when it's set to bridged only, how is this possible ?

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G2 Disconnecting From Cable Modem

Jun 10, 2011

Our router is connected through a cable modem and If I connect my computer directly wired to the cable modem, I have no problem, it does not disconnect at all.In comes the router in between, when I connect the router and connect my computer through the router WRT54G2, it works initially then I get disconnected after about 1-2 hours.  This is very regular.  I have a temporary solution by resetting the router via two ways:
 
1.  Go to the admin page, and perform a release and renew IP method.

2.  Simply power off the router and then on again.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA2700 Not Recognized By Cable Modem?

Feb 24, 2013

I have an EA2700 (fimware "classic" 1.0.14.129982) that used to work perfectly fine with a Comcast cable modem.  I just recently switched to Charter with an Arris TM902 modem and that's where the problems started.  The cable modem will not recognize my router.  I have to plug in a computer into the cable model when it starts up.  Then I need to clone the MAC address and restart the router (after disconnecting the computer).  Why isn't the cable modem recognizing the router when I restart it?  I guess this could work if it would be a one time thing but I had to power-cycle the modem and it stopped recognizing the router even with the cloned MAC address.  So I had to do the whole spiel again.
 
Is there any way to make this work easier?  Should I update my router's firmware to the "smart" one?

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54GS With Mac OS 10.6.8 And RCN Cable Modem Not Working?

Sep 27, 2011

I have a Linksys WRT54GS, version 6 with Mac OS X (version 10.6.8) hooked up to a Scientific Atlantic cable modem, with RCN as the ISP.
 
Recently, RCN had some network issues, and so I had to power down and reset my modem. The modem is working fine now -- no problems at all when the Mac is connected direclty to the modem.
 
The router's network is OK in that I can connect the Mac wirelessly to the network, but I can't connect to the internet through the router (through neither the wireless or wired connection).
 
I have downloaded the latest firmware update for the router, following the Linksys site instructions.
 
I did call Linksys tech support on the advice of RCN, and they said that the router does appear to be working (power, WLAN, and Internet lights are on), but they would be charging me nearly the cost of a new router to fix the problem.

-Network 2: private household/company use and separate from the public family network (company wireless laptop/company PC, un-secure media server).
