Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Wired Connections No Longer Work

Jul 14, 2011

I'm trying to fix the network at a student housing building and the system is kind of a mess.  We bought a new E4200 to replace our old Linksys router which no one knows the admin pw to.  We have four switches for 50 connections throughout the four story house and when switching the connections over to the new E4200 all of the wired connections no longer work.  Switch back to the old router and presto.  How do I need to change the settings with the E4200 to get it to work?
 
Also, as it's a thick old house the E4200's wireless only covers maybe half of it...I purchased two wireless repeaters to put on the 3rd and 4th floors, are these simple to install with the router?

Linksys Wired Router :: E4200 No Longer Accepts Wired Connections?

Oct 11, 2012

My E4200 router no longer accepts any WIRED connections. I can connect from the modem to the computer and everything works as expected. I can connect other computers wirelessly to the router. I cannot connect any laptops WIRED to the router. Nothing has changed on the systems to restrict internet access. There is something wrong with the router and the WIRED ports. I tried going through the troubleshooting on this site but it was of little to no assistance. The Cisco Connect utility doesn't appear to accomplish anything either. My guess is because I cannot connect to the WIRED ports on the router to connect to the internet to allow for whatever troubleshooting that needs to be done.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Wired Connections Stopped Working?

Jul 31, 2012

My router was working just fine forever, the only computer that will connect VIA wire is my desktop, everything else for it to connect to my network it has to go wireless. Things like my blu ray player just will not connect. I am not an expert at all, but why is only the wireless working? I can use the Cisco connect and adjust the settings if need be.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Disk Is No Longer Accessible

Jul 19, 2011

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.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Users Can No Longer Access Mapped Drives

Dec 14, 2011

I have a file server running windows 2003 and five computers (1 windows 7, 4 windows xp-sp3).There are two shares on the server.When the router is setup with wpa2, three of the windows xp machines will have problems with mapped drives. Directly after the drives are mapped, everything works, but 10 or so hours later, users can no longer access these mapped drives and there is no way to reconnect them it seems.The other two machines (windows 7 and one windows xp machine) have no problems whatsoever.
 
The only thing that the three computers have in common is that they are also sharing a printer (an hp j4680) attached to one windows xp machine (not the server).If I set everything to wpa, everything works fine, but of course my wireless network speeds drop to 56mbps.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 No Longer Sees Iomega 1TB External Hard Drive?

Jan 26, 2012

I had an Iomega 1TB External Hard Drive connected to my E4200 router.  I had shares confgured and they were properly running on the network.
 
As of yesterday, this all stopped working. The router does not see the drive; it is as though it is not plugged in.
 
I rebooted the router and it still does not work.  I've connected the hard drive directly to my PC to verify that it works there, and it does. The router is running Ver.1.0.03 (Build 14) of firmware (the latest).

Linksys Wired Router :: EA4500 - Wired Connections Have Long Ping Times

Sep 23, 2012

I purchased and set-up the EA4500 on Thursday.  Friday my ISP (Charter) was out and worked on connection for over 2 hours due to slowness issues.  Connected directly to modem I get normal ping times on whichever computer is connected.  When I get the computer connected by the router (hard wired) I get very long ping responses up to 900ms.  They are all over the place 30ms (I can live with that), up to the 900's.  I contacted Linksys support last night, who had me update to the cloud firmware and change MT U to 1300, have not noticed a difference.  I did end up doing a hard reset on the router last night after I lost tech support.  We were disconnected with router rebooted, and I didn't have the patience to connect again last night.
 
It was so slow on my work computer, a pint to yahoo timed out.  The computers connecting to router are
 
XP SP3 (mine)
Win 7 Home (IPV6 turned off)
Work laptop that uses VPN and VOIP

Linksys Wired Router :: E2000 - Security Wired Ethernet Connections

Sep 19, 2011

I have an e2000 wireless router and have several devices connected by ethernet cable including private data on an external hard drive.  I am planning to allow a tenant in another building connect via an ethernet cable connected to my router.  Can I limit that computer (tenant's computer) from accessing all other devices connected by ethernet cable to my router?  I know can password protect wireless access and limit access to the internet that way -- but my question is specifically to connections by ethernet cable.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Dropping Connections Several Times A Day

Apr 11, 2011

my E4200 is dropping connections several times a day.  I'd be working on my laptop, go to a webpage and bang, no connection.  A minute or so later it would reconnect.  It even appears to be doing this with a computer that is hardwired to one of the ports.  So it doesn't seem limited to just wireless.  Happens to both N and g channels as well.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Constantly Drops Connections

Sep 5, 2011

My E4200 seems to be dropping connections throughout the day.  For wireless it'll still show full signal and connection, but there will be no internet activity for about a minute.  Then after a minute things will work just fine again. For wired I notice it in my XBox mainly when I get dropped from games as constant as the wireless drops.I believe my modem isn't the problem since the old router never dropped connections on the hard wired devices.  Occasionally my old D-Link router would drop wireless, but never this frequent,I am running 1.0.02.  I've rebooted the router/modem several times.  I even reinstalled the entire setup with the current version of Cisco Connect as the tech person suggested, but still no luck.  The first week or so using this router was flawless, but ever since then it's been dropping connections several times throughout the day to any device connected (wireless or wired).  The problem seems that the router just hiccups the connection very quickly, so quickly that Windows doesn't even recognize the connection has been lost, but long enough to drop a multiplayer game on XBox or to have me mashing refresh on my internet browsers.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 - 2.4ghz Network All Connections

Sep 1, 2011

I purchased a e4200 in hopes that its dual band capability would allow us to run a 2.4ghz network for certain devices and a 5ghz for everyone else. I am able to setup the router and connect but it seems when the 2.4ghz network drops the router drops all connections. 

At first I had the networks setup with the same ssid, then changed the 5ghz network to a new ssid but was still losing connection when the 2.4ghz network dropped. This may be a simple routing issue i am overlooking (bit of a network newbie).

Linksys Wired Router :: BEFSR41 Could No Longer Connect To Internet

Jan 11, 2011

I upgraded the firmware on my BEFS41 v4.3 to the Ver.2.00.4 Build 8, off the cisco website. After I received the successfully upgraded message, I could no longer connect to the internet, nor could I connect to the router's configuration page. I tried to do a few hard resets and connecting it to other computers to see any other computers could connect to it, no luck. I tried connecting one computer just to the router, without the internet plugged in, and tried to ping 192.168.1.1 but I received a "transmit failed, error code 1231." Is there anyway I can access this and change the firmware, or am I screwed?

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT150N Unit Disconnecting From Wired Connections

Jan 21, 2008

I purchased a WRT150N in early Dec 07.  I had a number of problems with the unit disconnecting from wired and wireless connections erratically anywhere from 1/2 hr to 10 hrs. of operation.  Troubleshoot thru Linksys chat.  Ended up replacing router.  Now  I am having the same problem with replacement router.  I've updated my windows XP, SP2, updated Ethernet driver and manually reconfigured router per Linksys advise.  Wife and my laptops have N adapters, primary PC is wired in. It seems to disconnect all connections at same time, totally random. The only way to reconnect is to power down router for a few seconds and then power up.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT320N Wired Connections Displaying Different Names

Jul 22, 2011

So whenever i plug in my computers with an ethernet cord to my router i get an older, different ssid name displayed in local area connections instead of the one being displayed on the wireless network. For one computer it displays the old ssid name 3011, with a 2 right next to it (i think thats because i had another router with the same name), i changed the ssid twice, but when i plug it into the computer it still displays 3011 2. The other computer displays the first newer ssid but not the official one listed on the wireless network. Either way neither of my computers display the name i have as the ssid when plugged into the router with a cord. do i need to do something else so the names match? i reset the router and updated the firmware before writing this, it didnt do anything. i have windows 7 business for both machines.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT120N Two Desktops Connected Via Wired Connections

Jan 6, 2012

I have a Linksys WRT120N with two desktops connected via wired connections.In the house, there are two students accessing the Internet through WiFi via the WRT120N.One of the laptops (on an Apple laptop)  seems to lose its' connection from time to time.The other laptop (Lenovo) is located the furthest distance from the router and only gets two bars signal strength.Would my best option to improve the signal strength for the Lenovo laptop and hopefully, also increase reliability for the Apple laptop be to purchase a new router such as a Linksys E1500 with speed boost or would it be best to try a Linksys range extender (RE1000)?

Linksys Wireless Router :: VOIP Does Not Work Via E4200?

Jul 25, 2011

I have a new Polycom Soundpoint IP550 VOIP phone that was not connecting via my old WRT54GS router.  I purchased a new router, the E4200, thinking it was just the age of my original router.  It also will not allow the VOIP traffic through.  I can connect the VOIP phone directly to my CenturyLink modem and it works.  But when I connect it back to the router it stops.  
 
I contacted Cisco support and they had me upgrade the firmware to 1.0.02 build 13  May 24, 2011 version.  Also adjusted down the MTU to 1364. That still did not work so they told me to take the router back to the store.  I have not done that yet as I want to ensure that the router is really broken and not that I am missing a setting.  The tech said that I should be able to plug the VOIP phone into the router and make NO additional changes.
