Linksys Wireless Router :: Unable To Connect To USB Storage On EA4500 / N900?

Mar 6, 2013

There are plenty of instructions to configure USB storage but there are no instructions on how to use it, specifically.  Ok, so I have my ftp address, user name and password and tried to connect with Filezilla on my local network. Unable to connect.  Also, the USB device does not even show up in Network settings.  However, I am able to see the device as a media server from Sony Playstation.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200v4 USB Storage Password?

Apr 28, 2013

I have an e4200v2 with latest firmware. I have changed the administrator password from "admin" to a password of my own.I have recently added a USB hard drive to the router, and it says that admin password to access the share drive is the same as the admin password as the router, but it is not. The password to acces the USB drive is "admin" and there is nowhere to change this password to something secure.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Combining WD N900 And E1200?

Apr 22, 2013

I am looking to expand my network. I purchased a WD N900 router to replace my old Linksys E1200 .The internet connection is coming from the modem, into the WD N900 Router. The WD N900 has the printer hooked up to it, and 3 NAS, a computer and our magic jack. I ran 30 feet of network cable and routed the cable through the walls into the section of the house. I am looking to use my old Linksys E1200 to extend my network. I want to hook up the gaming systems (PS3, XBOX360) as well as the entertainment receiver to my Linksys router. What is the best setup? I am looking to be able to access the NAS from the WD N900 on our PS3 and Xbox360 so LAN-LAN looks like the way to go. I tried using the directions on Linksys site, but it doesn't seem to want to work. I test the network cable I ran through the walls, and it is getting a good signal. However when I hook it up to the Linksys E1200 and connect my lap top the Linksys E1200 to test it isn't working.

Linksys Wireless Router :: N900 - Vista Not Connecting To Internet?

Jan 24, 2013

I just set up a linksys n900. On one of the laptops that have vista it doesn't connect to the internet. The odd thing is when I first hooked up up it seemed to work fine than a day later it just stopped. All other computers are fine and if I try to connect to another network it works fine. Just when I try my home network it has issues.

Linksys Wireless Router :: N900 Internet Slow - Videos Always Buffering?

Nov 1, 2012

I recently upgraded my router because my last cisco router was having a misdirect issue. Type in facebook and you get an invalid URL and would have to reset the router to get it to work. Now I bought a new Cisco router and am regretting it. The n900 was a pretty penny and now ALL my videos are always buffering. I have several computers connected, but not active. The internet is painfully slow with the new router, but lightning fast with out it.
 
Currently using my laptop secuirty settings are IPv6/ and 4  SPI Firewall Protection: Enabled WPA2/WPA mixed mode. 
 
I have tried everything: Rebooting, up to date firmware, resetting, What should I do next? Disable some of its advanced features? Cisco is earning a bad rap with me if a router that boasts high internet speeds makes all my videos buffer and load painfully slow. Let alone getting through all the commercials on the internet now.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Accessing FTP Using EA4500 Storage?

Jul 3, 2012

I have a 1TB Western Digital drive connected to my home EA4500 router. Connecting to media server using SMB protocol (192.168.1.1) works fine. I am moving abroad for an extended amount of time, though, so I would also like to connect to this USB drive using FTP. Using the new Cisco Connect Cloud interface, I have enabled FTP sharing for the USB storage device with port 21 and using standard UTF-8 encoding. Whenever I try to connect to the FTP server using my router login credentials, I get the following error message:"There was a problem connecting to the server xx.xxx.xxx.xx. This file server will not allow any additional users to log on. Try to connect again later"

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Does Not Detect USB Storage?

Aug 21, 2012

When I connect my WD My Book Essential 3TB (which is listed as officially compatible with the E4200), I get the following screen:
  
The E4200 does not detect my hard drive, nor is there a bar saying "detecting".
 
My problem started when I could not create any new folders through finder.  I had to store new files in the root folder.  Every time I entered the admin password, I got a message saying I did not have sufficient permission to perform such a task.  I then went on to create a new user within the admin group and continued getting the same message.  Finally, I formatted the drive directly through my computer and reconnected.  And now my HDD is not detected at all.
 
I have an iMac running OS X Lion.  The HDD is question has been formatted to Mac OS extended (journaled).

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT350N FTP Access To USB Storage?

Jul 17, 2011

I have my WRT350N setup.  all computers within my LAN can access my usb storage device.   I can not access my usb storage device using a computer outside my LAN.
 
if you log on to 99.225.89.229:8080 it will ask you for user id and pass word to log into my router.
 
if you try to log on to 99.225.89.229:21 it wont even connect asking you for a user id and password.
 
my guess is the router is not allowing port 21 to be accessed, but I'm not sure.

Using N900 Wireless Router As WAP On Wired Network?

May 23, 2012

I have been having a heck of a time getting my gigabit network working off of either my new router, or 2 older ones. Since my house is wired with cat5 cables, I was thinking about putting an 8port router in my networking box that is tucked away in the corner of the house, and then using my new Dlink 857 router as just an access point in a more optimal location in the house.

My questions are as follows:

Would be slower for either the wireless internet speed or the speed of file transfers between the wired computers?

Would I be able to transfer files both ways from the NAS that would be hard wired to the 8-port router? Is there any benefit/disadvantage to my idea that I have not thought of? I know it is possible, but do I want to do it?

Internet----->Cable Modem --------->Wired Router --------> Xbox/NAS/PS3/Smart Player/Dlink Router set as Access Point

Linksys Wireless Router :: Cannot Access USB Storage On WRT610N From Computer

Mar 4, 2012

I am uable to access my files on the USB Storage Device connected to WRT610. Its configured properly. I can see the drive on my network. When I double click it asks for password which I enter and it takes me to the shared folder. But when I click it it says Not Accessible....You donot have the persmission. FTP works fine.I have noticed that on the disk page in the Shared Folder Area when you click on the Summary, the box with Groups With Access is Empty. Whereas on the FTP area in the same summary it clearly mentions the admin group.I have tried every thing including factory reset, hard reset, using new group, new user name etc..The technician from Linsys even spent an hour on my computer and ultimately he gave up and gave me number to contact technical support.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200v2 Cannot Create Storage Share

Dec 27, 2011

Just bought router and installed.  I cannot create share in Storage settings in Advanced settings.  I hit Create Share and it brings up the dialog box where I enter the display name.  Share entire partition is checked already.  I save settings and I see the box going to the form where you assign the Group roles, but then the box disappears and closes.  All I see is the original Storage setting page with the Create Share button still there.I tried this on Win 7 using both IE8 and Chrome browsers.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA4500 How To Gain Access To USB Storage

Apr 10, 2013

Just got my Linksys EA4500 router today.The only confusing thing, not not well explained by Linksys . Is the USB storage set up.One thing (very important) Linksys has failed to explain how to gain access to the USB storage once connected to the router. Once the USB storage drive it set up. Or at least I think it's set up. Nothing shows up on my network page. So how am I to get access to the drive? If it don't show up?I need to know how to gain access to the USB storage drive that is connected to the Linksys router.

 This is how I think it is to be set up. Again the instructions are not all that clear how to set up. And where is this widget on the homepage to be located?

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT610N Connection And Network Storage

Mar 11, 2009

On my network I have a wired PC running Vista Ultimate, a wireless g notebook running XP Pro, a wired PABT box for VOIP, an iPhone, a wireless g Mediagate MG350HD media extender connected to the TV in the lounge (about 10 metres away through 3 wooden walls) and I have a usb hard drive connected to the WRT610N router.I have only switched on the 2.4 band on the router - 5.0 band requires the client to have wireless N anyway, so since I have no wireless N devices it's no use right now?To manage my network I use Network Magic.
 
Problem #1.   My Mediagate MG350HD keeps dropping it's connection to the network. I have tried using DHCP and a static ip for it but it still drops. The only solution I've found is toremove the blanked-out Mediagate from the network map in Network Magic, reboot the router, click 'search for new devices' in Network Magic and MOST times it will redetect and reconnect the Mediagate.
 
Problem #2. Trying to configure the network storage device (my USB hardrive) is a pain in the arse.In the routers storage tab I cannot make sense of the folder creation. All I want to do is share specific folders and all their contents on the network. Every time I go to assign access rights and click the groups over into the access granted column and hit 'save' it puts them straight back in the access denied column. Does this have something to with permissions on my PC? When I go into Network and Sharing Centre it now displays 'Network Storage', when I click into it 3 networked folders appear, when I try to set permissions on these folders I hit apply and the boxes I've just ticked blank-out again. The folder marked 'Network Hard Drive' (the one I set-up using the storage tab in the router) does not display the subfolders and the actual movies stored on them. When I try to change the persmissions on the using my PC, different folders, eg Movies, TV etc... I get the same blanking out of the tickboxes on 'apply'.Is there a step-by step graphical instruction I can follow other than the PDF that came on the disk with the router.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E3000 Streaming Media From Attached USB Storage

Jan 9, 2011

I am very pleased with my purchase of the E3000 so far. However, one function seems to allude me. One of the main reasons for purchasing this router was because of its Media Server functionality. I wanted to be able to stream to my UPnP devices (ps3, xbox360, etc) without having to keep my power hog of a PC running. I have set up the HD using the Storage tab of the Advanced Router Settings, and created several Shares on the Media Server tab. The good news is that I am able to access the share on my PS3. The bad news is that I can't on my Xbox360s. As the Xbox360s has built in wireless N, I would really like to be able to stream to that system.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRt610N Disk Storage File Format?

Mar 25, 2012

I have a 1 TB external drive plugged into my WRT610 and want to access the drive from both Mac and PC. I recently upgraded the Mac to Lion and they no longer enable Time Machine to back-up to a network attached drive (Ugh!). I thought a simple work around would be to clone the drive, but the FAT file format does not allow a file size greater than 4 GB. So I seem stuck.Can the router be configured to enable exFat file format for storage? I have the back-up drive in an obsecure location (this is why I want to access the drive over the network) and would hate to relocate the drive to a more visible location.
