Linksys Wireless Router :: OpenDNS On E4200V2 Guest Network

Jan 28, 2012

I am running a guest network on my E4200V2. I have changed my DNS servers on the router to use OpenDNS for traffic filtering. The filtering on my non-guest networks is working fine; the OpenDNS test sites are blocked. However, when I use the guest network, the OpenDNS test sites are not blocked. There's obviously nowhere that I can change the DNS settings for the guest network.
 
I know that parental filtering in the router applies to the guest network, however, it seems that the DNS servers for the non-guest networks don't apply to the guest network. Is this true? Have others seen this?If so, that's pretty disappointing. OpenDNS filtering is much more powerful than the 8-URL blacklist I can create in the router admin. If I want to filter sites for my kids, having a guest network that is essentially wide-open (except for 8 URLs) is not an ideal situation.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200v2 And OpenDNS - Filtering

Feb 8, 2012

Will Cisco be adding support for OpenDNS in the next firmware release?  I have the e4200v2 and want to be able to specify times when  I want the filtering to be off.  After the kids go to bed.  Netgear allows this with their nicely implemented OpenDNS in their routers.  I am currently using OpenDNS with this router but don't like having to log in to remove the filtering and then adding it back on when I'm done surfing.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200v2 / MAC Filtering With Guest Network?

Jun 26, 2012

I have Cisco E4200v2, and after someone hacked my router's password, I was forced to activate a white listing MAC filtering. Problem is, that I would also like to enable a guest network so my small business's clients could still connect to the wifi, without having access to out home PC (and drinking our bandwidth).

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200v2 And PS3 Connection With Network

Feb 11, 2012

I recently changed my wirless router from the E4200 to the E4200v2.  As far as I know, I have the same settings on the E4200v2 as I did on the E4200.  My PS3 will not connect to my wireless network via the E4200v2.  I even retyped in my network information (SSID and password) onto the PS3.  Still "no joy." Any issue with the E4200v2 and the PS3?

Linksys Wireless Router :: Cannot Connect To 5GHz 802.11n Network On E4200v2

Jan 20, 2012

I have an E4200v2 configured with an n-only 5GHz network and a mixed 2.4GHz network. Our MacBooks and iPad connect to the 5GHz network, and everything else (iPhones, TVs, etc) connect to the 2.4GHz network. If I disable "WMM" on the QoS screen, nothing can connect to the 5GHz network. Those same devices can connect to the 2.4GHz network, but not the 5GHz. The MacBooks, for example, get a connection timeout error, and the iPad just says "cannot connect." This doesn't seem quite right. I don't absolutely need to disable WMM, but I wanted to make sure that normal WiFi Internet traffic didn't get priority over local wired Mac->AppleTV streaming or voice calls from our wired Vonage box.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200v2 5ghz Network / Connection Timeout

Feb 29, 2012

I was able to connect to my 5ghz and 2.4ghz networks just fine. Now today I get a message that the connection timed out whenever I try and connect to the 5ghz. I have done a 30/30/30 reset, and still no joy. The one thing I haven't done yet is a 30/30/30 with a configuration from scratch. I will probably try that later. I've done the usual things like change the channel and all that, still no go. Other things I've done, change the network name, change the MTU, restart my machine. However, this is happening on other devices as well. The 2.4ghz network, solid as a rock.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E3000 Cisco Connect And OpenDNS

Dec 22, 2010

I have been using OpenDNS for a long time, and I just got the Linksys E3000. When I tried to change the settings to add OpenDNS it said that some changes may cause the Cisco Connect software not to work anymore.
 
If I change the Static DNS 1 and 2 [URL] will I still be able to use all of the functions in the Cisco Connect software?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200v2 - Error Code 0x80070035 Network Path Not Found

Jun 15, 2012

I thought I would leave a message on a problem. I did two chats to the support desk and this was not brought up and it is obvious.   I just installed the 4200v2 as a replacement for a NetGear.  I bought for the n performance and the USB for a shared disk/media file server.  I connected a640G Western Digital My Book to the USB.  I was able to see the drive in the asp interface of the router, but I kept getting the "error code: 0x80070035 network path not found" message.  My computer is a 6 month old HP with Windows 7 running Bitdefender Internet.  I found I could get to the drive from my wife's  Toshiba (only used for browsing, so minimal security), so I thought it was a firewall issue (also what Cisco said).  After doing some Internet mining, I found that the issue is the Netbios setting in IPv4.  My PC had the setting Default, which requires the DHCP server to provide the setting and apparently this was not set by the 4200.  Without Netbios the disk cannot be mapped. Changing this to NetBios "enabled" solved the problem. This can be reached by going into the Control panel:Network and Sharing Center.  Click on the connection (either local area or wireless), then open the properties, click on the TCPv4, Click properties, then advanced.  Go to the Win tab and select Netbios enabled.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA2700 Firewall Rules To Force Use Of OpenDNS

Nov 23, 2012

I bought the EA2700, and put the addresses for the DNS servers of OpenDNS into the Static DNS 1, 2, and 3 so that my internet access is filtered (OpenDNS provides content filtering).  However I read online that users can bypass the use of OpenDNS DNS servers by choosing their own DNS servers on their computer network connections.The solution is involves firewall rules that limit DNS servers accessed through port 53 to only OpenDNS.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Guest Network Via LAN?

Feb 21, 2013

I have the wireless guest network up and running just fine. But, I need to also connect to the router's quest network via one of the ethernet ports. Can I just give the LAN-conencted PC a 192.168.3.x static IP to access the guest network? I am assuming there is no VLAN functionality...
 
And even better, can I set up a DHCP relationship to that port? So that any device plugged into the port will get a IP on that subnet?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Guest Network Not Working

Jun 24, 2011

I cannot get the Guest Network feature to work.Even though Guest SSID is enabled, it does not show up on any devices attempting to connect. Manually connecting by entering the Guest SSID fails (not recognized). On devices with the primary 5 and 2.4 GHz configured they do see the third network but without SSID (unknown) and are also unable to connect to it manually using the SSID.I did not try this before 1.0.02. Have rebooted modem and verified all configs (multiple times). The network is live in an office and can't keep screwing with it or drastically changing its settings.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA4500 - Way To Secure Guest Network

Nov 2, 2012

I just installed my EA4500 router and it was amazingly simple. My only question is it shows two wireless connections available: The secured one I set up and the another network with the same name that says "guest" and is NOT secured. Is there a way to either disable the unsecured guest network or to secure the guest network?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E3000 - Rename Guest Network / Account?

I haven't found a way to rename the Guest account on my E3000 router.  If my router is named HomeRouter the Guest account automatically gets the name HomeRouter-guest.  I have disabled the router's SSID broadcast, but it still broadcasts the almost identical Guest account.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA 4500's Guest Network Shows Unsecured

Feb 18, 2013

I'm not sure why the guest net work is unsecured.  I would have thought that would not be an option but it is unsecured.  How to secure the guest network [2.4 GHz]?  Also when I view the guest list some devices stay displayed whether they are in the vicinity or even turned off.  That adds to my paranoia with the guest network being unsecured.   I also can't edit the screen names to know who the device belongs to like is available in "my devices", forcing me to keep a MAC address list.

Dec 30, 2012

I currently use a E2500 router for my home network. I have setup the Wireless guest Network for my downstairs Tenant while he is out of work so he can still have some internet. The problem however is that often the guest network will take up 90% of my 55mb/sec bandwidth, leaving none for the primary network. Is there a way for me to Throttle the amount of bandwidth the Guest network can use? Say alot 10mb/sec for Guest access only, and leave the rest for our main network?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E2500 - Different Names For Secured And Guest Network?

Mar 29, 2012

I have a Linksys E2500 router.  Is it possible to have one network name for the secured network and a different network name for the Guest network?  The thought is to not have the SSID of the secured network broadcast while allowing the SSID of the Guest network to be broadcast.  With the convention of simply adding "Guest" to the end of the SSID for the secured network, it defeats the security option of not having the SSID of the secured network broadcast.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Cascading EA4500s And Guest Network Access

Aug 11, 2012

I've got two EA4500 routers connected via Ethernet. The primary router has DHCP enabled and the secondary has it disabled. IP address of primary is 192.168.1.1 and the secondary is 192.168.1.2.
 
I have set up guest access on both routers however only the primary router allows users to connect. When out of range of the primary router but in range of the secondary router the network is visible but when you try to connect to it, it only gives limited or no connectivity message and can't connect to the internet.
 
Is it possible for the guest network access to follow the same pattern as the secure network, i.e. the same network throughout the house?
