I live in a single story bungalow, and im wanting to resite my EA4200 up into the roof space, just wondering which is the best position to mount it in for signal, horizontal or vertical, or doesnt it matter ?
View 1 RepliesI upgraded my Mac to OSX 10.8.1, with which the included connect software is incompatible. Downloaded the latest version from Cisco. It claims to be compatible with OSX 10.7 and up. Apparently 'up' does not extend to 10.8. When will we get an updated version of the connect software so that I can reconfigure my router?
View 1 Replies View Relatedhad a EA4200 about a year now, no probs, very stable, i'm thinking about getting a EA6500, for better coverage, iPhone apps, etc, would like to use my EA4200 in bridge mode from a EA6500, I'm a fairly new to networking etc, i'm assuming when the EA4200 is bridged, it will act like a repeater connected by cable, with same SSID ?

View 4 Replies View RelatedIt seems since I have moved into my new house months ago my E3000 keeps on dropping its signal. I have an older roouter that doesn't do this. Currently I have a PS3/Xbox 360 plugged in and then the 3 laptops that use the wireless.
View 1 Replies View RelatedE2000-RM router has been working fine until about 2 days ago. Wired connection still works fine, but the wireless signals seems to be dropping in and out. I have a couple wireless devices and they all seem to be experiencing problems. Using the network connection bar on my laptop sometimes it shows a strong signal and connects no problem. Then all of a sudden the signal is gone (drops off list). It can be both the main and guest signal dropping, other times it might just be the main, etc., etc. Sometimes it shows a signal but will not connect and then a few seconds it might connect, or drop entirely. I guess the best word to describe it is highly erratic. Distance does not seem to matter. I can be 2 feet away and get the same behavior. The indicator on the box shows a signal at all times.
View 8 Replies View RelatedSo I just got this router in hopes that I would get a better signal within my room as opposed to my older router. Unfortunately, nothing has changed, in fact I think I'm getting weaker signals. My previous router was a D-Link WBR-2310. I went to speed test.net and tested 3 variables. My wifi on my desktop in my room, my wifi when right next to a router on my laptop, and my wifi using my neighbors wifi in my room.
My room Desktop Wifi:
Download was 0.50 mbs Upload: 3.6
My laptop right next to Router:
Download 19.87 mbs Upload: 3.5
My room Desktop Neighbors Wifi:
Download was 17.3 mbs Upload was 3.32.
What is the point of this new wireless N router, when it can't beat a G router older model in reach? And why does is have a 0.50 mb d/l speed but a 3.6 upload speed?
I have a Linksys wireless-G connected to my main computer and modem. We live in an extremely long house and I am attempting to connect a Belkin wireless-G router so that the signal is stronger on the other side of the house.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am having no end of issues with this router since the upgrade to CCC. I don't want to downgrade because the reason I purchased the router was for the hopeful addition of more apps later on and the CCC.
My router has now suddenly decided to no longer broadcast N signals. My 2.4ghz network is set for mixed and my 5ghz is set for N Only. They are both set to auto channel and WPA2 Personal security and have been working since I purchased the router on Sunday.
Last night it spontaneously rebooted and that was that.
Both laptops (with N adapters) are seeing the 2.4ghz network as 802.11g and my 300Mbps notebook adapter is seeing the 5ghz network as 802.11a. InSSIDer is showing that both networks are now broadcasting at a max of 54Mbps.
I have tried rebooting the router multiple times. I have also tried unplugging it for 60 seconds. I have also attempted to force the 2.4ghz to 20Mhz and a more optimal (unused) channel. That doesn't work. I tried setting the 5ghz network to wide (40mhz) with an optimal channel. Same deal. Still seeing it as 802.11a.
I have a cisco router model number E2000 it has worked fine until a few days ago, it keeps losing its signal on all my wireless devices I have reset it and it still is not working properly. I am wondering if I have to many wireless devices running through this router.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just installed a Linksys WRT160N router. The signal started of good about 50 to 70 feet from the routers location. Now the signal is registering as low to good, about 54Mbps. I was wondering what options I might have to install a wireless bridge for expansion of the signal. I have configured an encrypted network using WPA2. I am wondering what the technical difficulty would be to install and configure it. I setup the WRT160N myself if that means anything.
View 4 Replies View RelatedAt one of our offices, we have a Cisco ASA5505 firewall that has dhcp enabled. I have a WRT54G router plugged into that firewall with DHCP enabled. The scope of our inside network is 192.168.51.***, however when connected to the WRT54G, it gives you the scope of 192.168.1.***We have an antenna amplifier screwed into one of the antenna ports on the router. This whole setup works fine.
The problem is we need to install an access point WAP54G in a building across the property (picks up router wireless signal fine) to repeat the wireless signal to the back of the property where the router will not reach. I have read that all you need to do is type in the wireless mac address of the routher into the access point and select "Wireless Repeater". I have the channels set to 6 on both devices as well as the same security configuration. When I try to connect to the wireless network on the access point, It never gives me an ip in the 192.168.1.*** scope, which the WRT54G is configured to give out. Also, in this setup does the WRT54G need to be set to router or gateway mode? I do not need it to distribute ip addresses. [code]
I bought a WRT54G v6 and since I installed and configured it I've experiencing an intermittent connection in my lan where you can find a notebook wireless connected to the router and a desktop wired to the router by cable.I'm working and then the network stops, both computers lose signal with the router. The signal come back few seconds later but to work in internet again I have to wait some minutes.So I contacted the live assistent on Linksys web-site and the agents said to me to do something that I will list here:- lower the MTU to 1480, 1470, 1450- updated the firmware- reflash the firmware- reset the router for about 30 seconds- do the power cycleIf you don't know what update and reflash the firmware or do the power cycle means you can srsistedthe conclusion is that ee the instructions on this pages: [URL] ...

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've had been successfully using a WRT400N to extend my wireless network as follows:
The WRT400N connected to my network via an Ethernet port in my kitchen. The cable ran down to a corner of my basement connecting to Verizon router that brings in our Internet, TV etc.
The Verizon router's poor location was a problem, and placing the WRT400N in the kitchen worked perfectly, providing excellent network access and Internet to wireless devices throughout my home. It worked fine for over a year.
Recently, we had a power outage which reset the WRT400N to factory settings. and I am having trouble getting it to work again. I set it up in the first place, but am now having difficulties. Clearly, I am no guru!
I tried to get it going again by: 1) plugging the WRT400N into a PC and giving it a new IP address that would not conflict with the Verizon router (both default to 192.168.1.1) 2) turning off DHCP, 3) renaming the router, 4) changing the router password, 5) setting up a WPA2 security key.
I then plugged the WRT400N back into the kitchen Ethernet port, but something is wrong. Wireless devices cannot find the WRT400N.
The good news is that I can "see" the WRT400N through any PC on the network via a browser and access setup, but the bad news is that devices cannot see or connect to the wireless signal.
When I go to "Status" it shows the IP address, subnet address and default gateway all at 0.0.0.0. On the SETUP page, it has the correct router address (192.168.1.9), and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. Not sure if it is supposed to be this way...
Just got the E4200 and it seemed great at first. Connected at 450mbps at close range (maybe 6ft away) and got 223mbps transfer.It seems that recently my signal is much weaker. I'm around 6-8ft away from the router and I'm getting between 270-360mbps, which to me is poor given the short range.InSSIDer says the RSSI is -50, while my other wireless N router (dual band) is -35 and is in the exact same location. I'm using the 5ghz radio only, and it is set to N, and I'm using channels 44 and 48. I checked the hidden advanced wireless page and transmit power is already set to high.My laptop has an Intel 6300 wireless card.I'm using the current firmware 1.0.02,I've noticed that the speed of the router randomly seems to drop off too (just as I type this, the link rate has gone back up to 450mbps... typical). Is the router throttling when it gets hot or something? So I just want to find out if others are experiencing similar rates at the same kind of distance. Seriously, how can you advertise something as 450mbps when you can't even get that link rate at a distance as short as 6ft?I can't see any thing I can do to increase the link speed (back down to 270mbps now), short of a firmware update to increase the power and use higher channels. I hear the higher channels are much better, so who do I have to write to, to plead for new firmware?,This is a great product, but it's totally ruined by stupid internal antennas and a weak transmit power.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo here's my issue, I just bought this EA4500 so I could use the 5.0 Ghz and get a new 2.4Ghz as my old Netgear would drop the signal on a fairly regular basis. I've set the channel on 2.4 to 1, 20 Mhz Channel, and my neighbors are for the most part using channels 6 and 11 (one guy is using channel 2 at 40Mhz but has a very low signal strength). The signal drops out sometimes as often as every 5 minutes, and now it is doing it on my new router. Here's the kicker, the 2.4 band falls out from my router and some of my neighbor's routers, no new signal seems to come up, but the 5.0 band on the EA4500 is just fine, as is the wired route. Is the 2.4 band just being assaulted at my home and I'll have to deal with it, or is it that my new router, old router, and my neighbor's routers, all suck, and we should all get refunds? Any solutions to troubleshoot this beyond running a netstumbler like software, setting hard channels (including width), and long hours of trial and error? I am running this all from my macbook air, the 5.0Ghz is at 40Mhz, is the only signal, and is on a fixed channel.

View 8 Replies View RelatedWhere's the ideal place to put the KS? My current setup is 1 KS, 19 GM. The KS sits BEHIND a GM, so all other GMs have to come through one GM to get to KS.Now, I have purchased two dedicated KS routers. I configured one today, and placed it right on my WAN. My WAN is a L2 Ethernet domain, so i just provisioned a switch port in the WAN vlan, and away we go. I copied RSA keys over from the current KS, configured redundancy and the two hooked up, saw each other and it seems to be good to go. For the ACL, I put in an exclustion for my two KS to talk to each other:
deny ip host 192.168.250.40 host 192.168.250.41 (Old IP, New IP)
deny ip host 192.168.250.41 host 192.168.250.40.
I used a test router and pointed it to the new KS, it registered without a hitch... HOWEVER about two hours later (my 7200 second timeout) I lost ALL my branches. My 18 other GM were still pointed to the OLD IP only, they didnt have the second IP configured yet. In a hurry, I quickly disabled the redundancy configuration on the old KS and had to go to each GM and do a 'clear crypto gdoi' on each one to get them to re-register. There were no log messages about not being able to rekey, no log messages about dropped peerings, nothing. Once I did that, everything returned to normal.
The Question I have...
Would having configured the redundant KS caused this problem? Would having one KS behind a GM and the other Coop KS in the WAN make a difference?
Relevant config from existing KS, 2801:
crypto gdoi group GETVPN_GROUP
identity number 1234
server local
rekey retransmit 60 number 2
rekey authentication mypubkey rsa GETVPN_KEYS

I'm in the market for a wireless router/AP. It must have gigabit LAN and would like it to have 300mbps wireless rates. I've been looking at the Linksys E3000 but I'm a little hesitant because of some of the reviews about this thing getting hot. Heck, even reading thru threads on here, it seems like there's mixed reviews on most everything!
