Not sure if I have a defective router, but if I unplug it I then need to wait at least a half hour to plug it back in. Anytime sooner and it won't broadcast a SSID or connect to the modem. This is a huge inconvenience if you want to change router settings and then you need to restart.
View 1 RepliesMy internet's falling out every half an hour, I'm having this problem for a long time and I'm getting really annoyed by it. It's always out for an average of 3 seconds. The reason this is annoying is because I'm a gamer and these dropouts cause me getting kicked for being unable to connect and such.

View 5 Replies View RelatedLatest firmware with CCC corrupted after power outage. I reseet the e4500 several times and tried to reload the firmware and still no good. Only way I got it back up is to install the older non-CCC version 2.37. Strange all was fine until the power outage. Not sure if I should even bother to upgrade to 2.38 again.
View 2 Replies View RelatedJust purchased the E4500 today and install failed on both machines. Install starts and then fails to finish.I have contacted support via chat and was given manual instructions and the router will not connect to either machine.Are there known issues with the Cisco Connect software not installing?
The chat support person finally dropped out of the chat and the router remains in an unusable state.I currently had to cable wired connection of laptop to get an internet connection.
due to location issues, I have to use the E4500 as a 2nd router. I have a Netgear router setup as the primary router connected to the internet, this acts as my firewall. The E4500 connected to the netgear and it route all traffic fine. The only issue I have is port forwarding to E4500. I've setup the FTP server on the E4500 and can access it via the internal network. Then on the netgear I forward the FTP port 21to the E4500. But it doesn't seem to work.
I know when I forward all my other ports, it works just fine. If I setup a FTP server on an other machine and forward that the port it works, just not the E4500. I've disabled all firewall settings on the E4500, and still nothing.
I just bought WRT54GH router. I have one PC (running Ubuntu) connected via Wireless.Every 5-10 minutes I get disconnected for a short period of time (about 10-30 seconds). During that period I am able to access router configuration page, but can't connect to the "outer" world... Surely it's not about my Internet provider, since connecting the PC directly to the Internet cable works fine with no "disconnections".

Youtube is the only site I am having an issue with, other video streaming sites like Vimeo work fine.

View 1 Replies View RelatedGot my E4200 a month ago, and have since been experiencing problems with movie streaming between my server and my Popcorn Hour A110. All kinds of movies stutters randomly and becomes unwatchable. Streaming of the same movie from my server to my laptop (connected wirelessly) causes no stuttering.
I have been doing some troubleshooting and determined that it is not the server's fault (it achieves transfer speeds of 60+ MB/s through Samba). I have also ruled out the possibility that the Popcorn Hour is the faulty component.
Lastly, I just tried switching from the E4200 to my old D-Link DIR-655. This has effectively removed the stuttering, leading me to conclude that it is the E4200's fault.
I just signed up for Charter's Ultra 100Mbps internet service. We confirmed it worked at that speed by connecting my Lenovo T520 laptop directly to the Motorola Cable modem. I acheived just over 102Mbps throughput down.Next, I plugged in the e4200 (v1) router to the modem, and the computer directly to that (wired), and the max performance I could see was right around 52Mbps. Wireless performance on wireless-n, 5Ghz, maxes out at around 42Mbps.I am concerned about the throughput dropping from 102Mbps to 52Mbps while directly WIRED to the router. That tells me that the router is definitely capping my throughput. I have turned off QOS, found the optimum MTU of 1468 (used the ping -f -l 1440 [url]...) to find the largest MTU that didn't spit out a fragmented message, and added 28 to that.
I am a bit baffled that this top of the line router which some have claimed to see >100Mbps performance over wireless alone, isn't able to achieve any higher than 52Mbps wired. I do have other devices plugged in, but none actively transferring. What could be capping the throughput? The router worked fine on 25Mbps service, but it seems unable to handle 100Mbps service.
If I am wired to my WRT160N I get close to 50 Mps when I go wireless I get half of that speed and apparently there is nothing to change or to improve at the wireless settings.Some said that this is totally normal for wireless, have 1/2 of the wired speed.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI did a test to check the speed of my connection with my PS3. First I checked the speed straight from my internet providers modem and I get 18.9 Mbps. Then checked it through the Valetplus router and the speed results are 8.5 Mbps. Both tests were wired in with same cable. Why this happens and if that is common with wifi routers?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've just set up my E4200 and none of my wireless N clients connect at full speed. Irrespective of what wireless settings I use they all seem to connect at around half speed. My laptop for example insists on connecting at 144.4 Mbps though it supports 300 Mbps. Periodically it will connect at 300Mbps, but the next time the I reconnect or I make a settings change on the router (irrespective of what the change is) the speed drops back to 144.4. Clients that support 150Mbps connect a consistent 65Mbps.I'm running FW 1.0.02, though the problem existed with 1.0.01 (I hard reset before and after upgrade) and I've tried re-flasing the 1.0.02 firmware.Any combination of channel, width, mode and security type etc doesn't seem to influence the performance. Nor does distance (the client above is 3ft from the router).My previous router was located in exactly the same place as the E4200 and I had a solid full speed connection all over the house.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a 2 month old e3000 with the latest firmware. (1.04 i believe) I have run speedtests from wired and wireless machines on my network. All of the wired connections show a speed of around 15Mps (which is consistent with my providers guaranteed speed) but when I test any of the wireless connections I get somewhere between 3 and 7 Mps. I get the same degradation in speed when I stand directly next to the e3000.
Other then SSID and Passphrases I have everything set to the default settings. I have rebooted multiple times with no change. The e3000 is mounted on a 2x4 with several feet of clearance all around and is also located in the coolest part of the house. I am using Speedtest.Net for all the tests.
I've recently subscribed to a 100Mbps fibre broadband service with the bundled Huawei EchoLife HG8240 ONT modem and speed-tested it with an achievable speed of almost 100Mbps (uplink and downlink) on my desktop PC.However, when I connect my new Cisco Linksys E1200 Wireless-N Router to it, I noticed the speed dropped by almost half (about 50Mbps both ways) when I conduct a similar speedtest .
note that I'm using wired cable and there's only 1 single PC connected to it and it is not shared. This includes upgrading the firmware to the latest version, disabling the IPV6 setting and configuring QOS.My current hardware/ firmware version is as follows:

View 14 Replies View RelatedI am working on setting up a Linksys router for my Dad. I am moderately competent with networking. Anyway, a glaring, and obnoxious problem I am having is everytime I load a page for the router(192.168.1.1), it does not completely load and I have to hit refresh.Now when I try to change the router settings from DHCP to PPPoE, it reloads the page, for whatever reason, and because this router wants to be irritating, it only half loads the page, so I cannot click the "save settings" button.This is what has been done to the router after being reset(red button on the back held in for 10 sec):I turned on the modem, and plugged directly in to make sure I had internet connection.I plugged the modem's ethernet into the "Internet" port on the wireless router.And finally, I plug an ethernet cable from my computer to the 1st port on the wireless router.Nothing else has been changed. I have not turned on any ridiculous settings. This half-loading router pages is driving me up the wall though. I cannot even troubleshoot the wireless connectivity because I cannot make any changes.

I have a desktop and a laptop plus iPads, etc. The laptop loses connectivity every day about the same time. My only solution so far is to reboot the router.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI unplugged my router and when I plugged it back in, it stopped working. The 4 port lights and the ethernet light come on immediately when I plug it in instead of the normal boot sequence.
I tried resetting it, leaving it unplugged for long periods, using the power supply from my other router,... nothing works.
my E1000 will slow down and, as I've done with other routers, I'll typically unplug it for about 20 seconds and reboot it. However, with my E1000, about 9 out of 10 times, after I plug it back in, the four port lights on the the left will dimly flash but I get no activity on the three right blue lights (the wifi, internet and power buttons) and thus no wifi or internet.
For example, this morning I unplugged the router and modem, plugged the modem back in and waited for the modem activity lights to start flashing and then plugged in the router. The four blue port lights on left side flashed very dimly but no other activity. I unplugged it and re-plugged it in about 10 times and finally, the lights on the right side popped on and all was well.
I'm experiencing significant slowness with my E4200V2 that is resolved after a reboot. Here is a pre/post reboot ping:

As you can see, the results indicate that the reboot fixes the issue, and the difference is significant and noticeable. I find that I need to reboot the router once every few days. My old router, a WRT54GL, was rock solid with the same ISP (I'm in an apartment and plug a LAN cable directly into the wall. What happens beyond that - I don't know. I think there's wireless involved somewhere, though.).
Clearly, rebooting the router resolves the issue. Since my old WRT54GL worked flawlessly, I suspect it's the router. Because the delay seems to happen between the router and the ISP, the possibilty remains that it's an issue on the ISP side. However, that seems unlikely given the stability I saw with the WRT54GL.
Im using a Linksys E4500 wireless router behind a Motorola SB6121 modem. My OS is Windows 7 and it is fully up to date. In general my entire network is working well. Now I have purchased a new IP surveillance camera and need to forward a port to be able to have remote viewing of the camera. Mi ISP blocks quite a few inbound ports including 80 so I have been trying a lot of ports all over the map to find something that will allow inbound access.
After several hours, nothing I have tried works, using a couple of different port probes including one called CanYouSeeMe I always get a "timed out" message. I have disabled the firewall in the router and on the local computer and still no luck. This says to me that either Cox is blocking nearly all ports (doubtful) or the modem is blocking access to the router somehow.
The Surfboard modem doesn't have a built in router. Unfortunately I don't have an old working modem to put in the circuit.
I don't guess it matters but the camera is accessible from all other local computers on the LAN using its IP address with a port number appended (right now it's using 8000).
Is it possible to force a reboot of the EA4500 through the Cisco app for the Cloud?
