Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 - DSL Modem In Bridge Mode Reports Full Speed

Dec 21, 2011

I have a d-link dsl modem that reports it's getting the full 6 meg download speed from AT&T.   I put the dsl modem in bridge mode so the E4200 will do the logon to AT&T with my credentials.   If i do a speed check using CNET internet speed test, from both a desktop (wired 1gb card) and any laptop in the house (all draft n 2.4 or 5.0), it ranges anywhere from 3 meg to 4.3 meg.   I have 6 cat-e ethernet cords everywhere.   I do have 2 switches but have tried to unplug those to see if any difference

Linksys Wireless Router :: Using E4200 In Bridge Mode?

May 1, 2012

I have a E4200 with 1.0.04 firmware that I've used for a while as a router in front of a cable modem. I have upgraded the modem to a Virgin Media SuperHub. I have connected my E4200's WAN port to one of the SuperHub's LAN ports and changed the E4200's mode to Bridged Mode.I can connect to the Internet wirelessly and wired on the SuperHub, but I can only connect to the Internet via the E4200 if I'm wired to it. The wireless will connect to the E4200, it gets allocated and IP address in the correct range and the gateway is shown as the SuperHub's IP address, and I can see the E4200's management website via wireless, but I cannot connect to anything beyond the E4200.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Possible To Put It Into Bridge Mode

Sep 26, 2011

As I understand, the latest FW for the E4200 makes it possible to put he router into bridge mode. In this mode, I can use it as an access point. In bridge mode, should I then connect my router to the WAN port at the E4200?The other way to make the E4200 into an AP, is to disable DHCP and NAT and give the E4200 an IP address out of range for the DHCP range in my preferred router.

Choosing between this two option to make the E4200 into an AP, which is considered to be the best solution?And to be sure; using this option, then the Ethernet cable should be connected to the LAN port of the E4200? is the performance of an E4200 in AP mode the same as a dedicated AP like the WAP610N?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 In Bridge Mode

Aug 20, 2011

Just bought 2 e4200's!  I have the first one connected to the ATT router, and I have the second one connected to the first in Bridge Mode.  It works great! It knew how to configure itself to be the down-level client.
 
However, I noticed that the port speed is only 100 Mbps on the port that is acting as the link for the bridge.  I am running brand-new CAT5e thru the house, and if I connect the cable directly to my laptop - I get 1Gbps. So I know that the cable is good.
 
Is there a way to change the speed of the INET port on the down-level e4200?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Works In Bridge Mode Only

Nov 5, 2012

Restarting the e4200 did not work.  Resetting using the switch at the back did not resolve the issue.  I was able to reset it via the 192.168.1.1 web page.  After restoring my settings from backup, the issue remained the same.  This was not alleviated after I updated the firmware.  Plugging into one of the ports with a cat5 cable with my Mac, I was able to get an IP, yet I was not able to surf; same case with my MacBook.
 
Doing the 30-30-30 reboot did not fix this issue and all the while the front white light on the router went and stayed, solid.To see if I could get this to do ANY sort of meaningful internetting (is that even a word?) I put the e4200 in bridge mode and when I put the cable modem in, and all that plugs into this router works.  This, of course, means that there is:
 
1. No Wifi signal and

2. It will not reset to factory settings.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Locks Up In Bridge Mode?

Feb 7, 2012

I'm using the E4200 in Bridge mode and it's handing out IPs from our DHCP server (not acting as it's own).  I have about 8 people connecting to this wirelessly to get to our network.  For some reason it locked up once every week or two and I have to unplug it (can't even remote into it).

Linksys Wireless Router :: Use Multiple E4200 In Bridge Mode?

Aug 10, 2011

I have four E4200 units on my network, each with an unique IP address, in bridge mode to act as a wireless mesh across my entire building.   They are all connected to my central L3 switch, via their Internet ports.
 
Is it possible to enable the Guest network on each unit, to create a 'Guest Wifi' mesh (providing that I allow the 192.168.33.0 network to route across my network fabric), or will this not work because each indivudual AP will be assigning IP address 192.168.33.1 as it's gateway address meaning that I would have four distinct MAC addresses within the network, each trying to claim that they are IP 192.168.33.1?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Limitations In Bridge Mode

Jan 3, 2012

I have a Fiber to Ethernet connector from my ISP. The Ethernet cable goes to an iSP issued Zyxel router. Into this router the landline phoneservice connects to give us VoIP landline service (which is cheaper). An Ethernet cable goes from the Internet port on the E4200 to a LAN port on the Zyxel router. That works great but I had to put the E4200 into Bridge Mode to get it to connect to the Internet via the Zyxel router which I need to use the phone services my ISP provides. I bought the E4200 because I wanted to use the dualband functionally and get a 802.11N 5GHz network setup and to give me the ability to block certian websites and services which I knew Cisco/Linksys is famous for - the abillity to control your network. 
 
Well then imagine my surprise when I could not use the Parental Control settings when the router is in Bridge Mode... This was the reason I bought this router over an Apple Airport Exreme. Is there anyway to get it to let me use the Parental Control anyway while in Bridge Mode or a better way for me to connect the router with the rest of my network?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 As Access Point / Bridge Mode?

Sep 6, 2011

I have spent most of the weekend trying to get this router to act as a proper Access Point.
 
When it does work (Stay connected) speeds and latency are rotten. If I go back to Routing Mode this thing kicks butt, but I isolate all devices attached to a different subnet and trying to set up proper routes has proved imposable. Firmware 1.0.2 r 13
 
The online help stated to connect to the "internet interface" when in Bridge Mode DHCP Server Is not broadcasting to on the wireless or wired interfaces.
 
If I used the wired interface as the uplink I can broadcast the DHCP to any device on wired but again nothing to the Wireless. When I "Show Routing Table" I see two static routes pointing to the ATT router for the Wired/Wireless Interfaces.. 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 (my Gateway) Wired/Wireless (my Gateway) 255.255.255.0 0.0.0. Wired/Wireless
 
AP mode should only be working in Broadcast. By connecting the Wired Interfaces alone up to my switched network should not use the router at all. If you force all traffic to my router all traffic has to be inspected by the firewall You create a bottleneck my router interface is 10/100.
  
ATT 2 Wire Gateway/Router with pinholes. 10/100/1000 Non managed 24 port Switch Network. Server infrastructure serving DNS/DHCP.
 
I decided to buy this after reading it offered Bridge/Access Point mode instead of getting the WAP610 because I wanted to have the option to change to routing mode or AP mode. Since my ATT Uverse Router Wireless is “g” it takes forever to transfer files to and from my servers.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 - Running In Bridge Mode /Automatic DHCP?

Dec 9, 2012

I am trying to determine the best way to setup my E4200 V2 so that it is “uplinked” correctly to a Comcast Dory Modem/router.  Currently we have the E4200 V2 router plugged into the Comcast Dory Modem/Router using a CAT6 cable from one of the Ethernet ports on the Comcast device to the WAN port on the E4200.  The E4200 is set to “Automatic Configuration - DHCP.”  
 
We are trying to do two things.  First better WIFI in the center of the house and for a TV located next to the Comcast device, and second, have all devices in this house see and access all other devices including the Samsung SmartTV, my son’s two systems upstairs, the 3 systems in the room with the E4200, and the one network printer.  In the room with the E4200 we have 3 computers and one network printer.  3 of those 4 devices support WIFI so we don’t have to use all 4 Ethernet ports on the E4200.     
 
I see others talking about running the CAT6 cable to an Ethernet port on the E4200 instead of the WAN port and setting it to “Bridge Mode.”  Right now the system appears to be working fine although we are sometimes experiencing brief dropped connections with the devices hardwired into the E4200. 
 
Should I be running the E4200 in “Bridge” mode or “Automatic DHCP” mode and which port on E4200 should the CAT6 from Comcast be plugged into?

Linksys Wireless Router :: Guest Network Doesn't Work In Bridge Mode On E4200

Aug 9, 2011

We have three brand new E4200 routers, all using the most current firmware (1.0.02).   They are all in bridged mode, however when I attempt to enable the guest network on each of them, the config shows it as active, but it never shows up as visiible SSID.   In previous posts, I've seen people saying that I need to do a complete hard reset of the router and re-enter all the configs again to get the guest network active.   Is this true?  I'd hate to think that I have to hard reset and reconfigure all three of these APs, just to get the guest network enabled.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 4500 Switch Reports Ports As 10 / Full While Other Side Reports 100

Oct 31, 2011

we have a 4510r-e running  12.2(50)SG1 w/ various rj45 line cards and a 24 port glc card.at any given time, i see 10's of ports in 10/full.i go to the station, and find the station in 100/full or 1000/full.

i go to the switch w/ my fluke, connect it directly to the switch w/o any intermediate infrastructure except a 50cm cat6 patch cable.the fluke reports 1000/full, but THE SWITCH PORT REPORTS STILL 10/FULL.all ports are config'd 'speed auto'  and 'duplex auto'.
 
the switch  seems to be erroneously reporting 10/full.there are no errors logged on any of the ports and there is successful communications even when the station and switch port report different speeds.even though there are no errors logged nor reported  by 'show int [port]' nor 'sho int count error' certain killer applications crash on some stations. (the applications are GHOST (which dumps disk images from a server to multiple stations) and NETOP (which i sused in a classroom to transmit an instructors screen to a room full of stations)  both of which broadcast and/or multicast.all nodes involved in the above 2 applics are on the same vlan and same phyiscal subnet.

the ports which report 10/full vary and occur even when the above applics are not in use.the only way i found to clear this 10/full report is by either a hardware reset of the entire module or by unplugging the cable, the execute on the port shutdown, speed auto, no shutdown, reconnect cable.then it's just a matter of time until it pops back to 10/full in a few minutes,hours or days.
 
how to address the killer applic problems besides restructuring the whole net by defining separate vlan for each lab of 20 or so stations?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200v1 Unstable When Downloading At Full Speed

Aug 20, 2012

i have a little annoying problem with my E4200. V1 with the latest 04 fw. It seems, that after many hours of downloading at full speed (only one torrent at a time) the speed goes down, and up again, and becoming unstable. My max download speed is 1.5 Mb/s, and it can drop from that, to 50 kb/s, and then up again. and i have no internet access when that happens, but it only last 10-20 seconds and then its back again. Sometimes i get that yellow warning sign on the taskbar which says "No Internet Access" but not always.
 
Seems like its happening after many hours of downloading at full speed. im on the latest firmware, have tried different channels, 20 Mhz only on Channel Width, different names on the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz channels.. i use the 2.4Ghz channel btw. Otherwise its stable, and i have had no problems while gaming online.

WRT54G - Put Router / Modem In Bridge Mode And Use Different One?

Aug 29, 2011

I have an SMCD3GN (from Rogers) that is both a Modem and a Router. I also have a Linksys WRT54G router that I used to use before. The SMC is giving me a lot of problems. The connection is really bad often and my internet speed drops for no reason all of a sudden. I'm getting fed up and want my old router back.

I know it's possible to change the SMC into a modem (put it in bridge mode) and then connect my router and use the Linksys router instead of the SMC. The problem is, I don't know exactly how to set it up and would really like an explanation. I already know how to get into the SMC and Linksys settings as an admin.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Using EA3500 In Bridge Mode?

Feb 16, 2013

I bought the EA3500 nine months ago mainly for the USB port (for a NAS). I recently replaced Comcast Cable with Verizon FIOS. So I now have the FIOS router as my main router (its' IP address is 192.168.1.1). I put the EA3500 in bridge mode to extend the (wired) network. I could get: After going in to bridge mode (with DHCP), I can not log in to the EA3500 (IP address 192.168.1.5 assigned by the FIOS router). I connect my computer directly to one of  the EA3500 numbered ports (after various combinations of rebooting EA3500 and rebooting PC). It just continues to say "waiting" and never logs in. Tried choosing a static route (tried both 192.168.1.43 and 192.168.1.5 with 255.255.255.0, gateway and DNS1 = 192.168.1.1) with no luck.Since I can't log in, I cannot set up my NAS on the USB port of the EA3500 (so I haven't gotten far enough to determine if the USB port will even work in bridge mode).Thought about ensuring the latest firmware but since I can't log in I can't do that. (And after a hard reset EA3500 IP address is 192.168.1.1 which creates conflict with FIOS)

Linksys Wireless Router :: To Know If Bridge Mode Set Up UTA200

Dec 26, 2008

I have just purchased t-mobile's at home phone service (voip) and they gave me a UTA200-TM Hiport Adaptor to connect for the service.  Had Vonage (voip) for 2 years so know how it works and never had problems.  This one however will only allow the phone line to stay on for about 30 seconds and then drop it.  Have it connected to a modem (cable internet) and a WRT54GS Wireless Router.  T-Mobile wants me to check to see if the router has bridge mode set up as they think that may be causing the phone line to drop out.  How can I check that?  I can not figure out the directions on the linksys site, too confusing.

Linksys Wireless Router :: How To Connect To EA4500 In Bridge Mode

Jan 16, 2013

I configured the EA4500 to work in bridge mode, to use it as an accespoint for an existing network (Linksys WRT610N). It gets an IP address (192.168.1.141), but does not offer a wireless network (the ethernet ports do offer network acces). When I try to access the configuration on IP address 192.168.1.141 I get the Linksys Smart Wifi page asking for the password. When I enter the password, a message "Waiting" appears and that's all. It keeps me waiting forever and I cannot access the configuration settings.I have tried to reset the router (30sec. reset button, power off 30sec, power on) but the result is the same.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200V2 Bridge Mode Disconnects

Mar 15, 2012

I have an E4200V2 with the latest .36 firmware installed.The E4200V2 is setup in Bridge Mode. THe 4200 DHCP's an IP for itself from my network infrastructure. This consists of a UBEE DOCSIS 3 (gig E output) modem on a 100 meg cable connection feeding an IP Cop Linux router/firewall and out to a gig switch, fully gig E on the network side. The wired portion of the network is absolutely bulletproof. And the older B only AP that ran well was also on this same setup.I have the E4200V2 set for N only on the 5 GHz side, and I had it set to Auto for channel selection, but manually set an unused channel currently. The 2.5 GHz side is set also manually to a locally unused channel now, and is set to mixed mode as I have B/G/N devices I need to connect to. The unused  channel for both radios was detemined by scanning for AP activity using one of my Linux laptops.  I have both the 5 GHz and 2.5 GHz radios  set for 20/40 channel width. And I am using the recommended WPA2-Personal for security on both, with a separate SSID name for each radio.
 
The wireless connection for both E4200 V2 radios disconnects on fairly random but regular times and has to reconnect. This happens on both radios. There is no interference, and no network feed issues that would cause this. And the older B only Orinoco AP I replaced never had these issues. Signals are strong to all of the devices and the dropouts occur even when testing with a laptop several feet from the E4200V2. If I am streaming a video over GoogleTV or music or playing an online game, the 4200 disconnects regularly and the devices need to reconnect. This happens on both radios and to every device.

Linksys Wireless Router :: How To Configure E2500 In Wired Bridge Mode

Jan 25, 2012

My client has a DSL modem and a Belkin wired 4-port router configured to connect to it using PPPoE.  Apparently there is no way to configure the E2500 such that it may be dropped in as a direct replacement for the Belkin (which would also provide wireless access) without the PPPoE login/password (from the DSL provider, Verizon).
 
I would like to connect the "Internet" port of the E2500 to one of the Belkin's 4 ports, in order to use the E2500 for wireless internet access without using any of the 4 wired ports but I think this creates a NAT within an existing NAT network? 
 
To avoid that if I configure the E2500 in wired bridge mode, it becomes transparent, and I can no longer access its administration interface using the address 192.168.1.1 (since that address belongs to the Belkin).  How may I, for example, change the wireless password which the E2500 is in wired bridge mode?
