Linksys Wireless Router :: Possible To Use E2000 As Wireless AP Only?

Feb 20, 2011

I'd like to use my E2000 router as a wireless access point only. The unit will be hooked up to a Verizon FiOS Actiontek router/modem combo unit that I would like to leave as the only and primary router on my network. Can the E2000 have its router functions turned off without DD-WRT or other third party firmware?

Linksys Wireless Router :: Can't Find Wireless Printer With E2000

Sep 5, 2011

I have a Dell Inspiron 1720 (running Vista Home Premium) that connects to my Linksys E2000 and to a wireless printer, the Canon MX870.  It's been working for months without problems.
 
I just got a Toshiba Satellite P770-BT4G22 Laptop (running Window 7 Professional 64 bit) and installed the Cisco Connect software following the instructions where you have already set up the router and just need to install the software to do things like add a device.  I can connect to the router fine using a web browser or the Cisco Connect Software and my Toshiba connects to the Internet through the router without problems.
 
The problem is Cisco Connect says it can't find a wireless printer when I run it on my new Toshiba.  I've put the printer within 3 feet of the router with my Toshiba in between but still it can't find it.  My Dell in another room connects to the printer no problem.  And I can print to the Canon if I  select the Shared Canon Printer ( on the Dell) using the Toshiba's Control Panel Add Printer function.  But obviously that means the Dell has to be on so that's not good for much more than troubleshooting.  I've also wired a connection from the printer to the Toshiba and downloaded the latest driver, printed that way so I know that's not the problem.  The problem is that Cisco Connect can't find the printer.  It says there are 6 devices attached to my router so it's seeing something, but I guess not the printer.  I've turned any firewalls off for this testing too.
 
I'm stumped as to why it can't find the printer when the Dell did and they are all on the same network. Unless it's not compatible with 64 bit Windows.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E2000 Max Wireless-n Speed 72 Mbps?

Sep 13, 2011

I just bought a refurbished E2000 wireless-n router with 1 Gb LAN ports (from Cisco online).This router is meant to replace my Netgear wireless-n router that only have 100 Mb LAN ports.I have 10 devices in my home network, 6 of them are using wireless (1 'g' and 5 'n') and 4 are interconnected with cat5e cables (trough the router).The devices have some different operating systems and their network adapters are from different brands.When I set up the Netgear router I didn't have to adjust anything for the wireless network to work fine.All wireless-n devices worked at 150 Mbps (sometimes going down shortly to 130 Mbps).The wireless-g device worked at 54 Mbps.For the last 2 days I've been trying to set up the E2000 to achieve a wireless-n speed higher then 72 Mpbs... without success.I tried all the suggestions that I found in the Cisco Knowledge Base.

- Upgrading the firmware to the latest version

- Trying different channels and channel widths

- Different wireless security methods and many others.

Also trying different settings on the different devices doesn't work.Changing the distance between router and devices as well as changing the location of the router don't affect the results.Switching on only 1 device at a time doesn't change anything either.It looks like the E2000 is set to not transmit on a higher speed than 72 Mbps, when it's actually supposed to achieve a wireless-n speed of up to 300 Mbps. I would be lucky if I get the half of it, but not if it's only one fourth.

I would like to set the router's dns entries but I don't see how to do that.  Basic setup page has DNS setep for the DHCP scope but I don't want to push dns to my pc's.  What I am looking to do is to use an alternate dns to what my service provder pushes and still have the abliity to route on my internal network.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E2000 - Way To Get Connectivity

Apr 24, 2011

My internet cut out last week and after calling my ISP I found out it was in fact my router that was causing the problem (regular connection to PPOE works fine). I've only had my E2000 about 2-3 months and have not had any problems with it. I've restarted the router, done a factory reset, upgraded the firmware, renewed the IP and still I cannot get any connectivity. I can access the router UI fine and I get a response from pinging it and also I have tried replacing the cables but that didn't fix the problem either.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E2000 - How To Keep Speed At 300 M

Dec 7, 2011

I'm using E2000 currently and meet a wireless connection problem. The speed can up to 300M bps. When I confiured the E2000 to band auto (20-40mhz) and my wireless network card to work at also auto (20-40) mode, it always down to 144M speed when connection.
 
If I changed some settings in E2000's wireless configuration, in the status sheet I can see it works at 40MHZ. But after a while,(5-10 mins) it automaticly down to 20MHZ and my labtop connect only got a 144M speed.
 
how can I deal with that to make it always keep at 300M connection? Note the previous router I used to connect to my lattop can always keep that speed.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Internet Access Regarding Linksys E2000

Aug 21, 2011

I can connect to my router but either way it seems like i can't get any internet access (both wireless and by cable): url...I have tried the steps that the linksys FAQ suggests shall fix this problem, but this has not worked. I have also tried to reset the router without any luck. I know it its not the modem that is causing the problem because I'm wired to it now.On the E2000 every light is blinking as it should be (hence the FAQ) so it indicates that there might be a problem with the connection between the router and the computer (tested on other computers too without success).

Linksys Wireless Router :: Can't Access Internet Through E2000

Apr 21, 2013

I have a Linksys E2000.
 
It worked fine until one day, without any change at all, it simply stoped working. I mean, I can still connect through my wifi laptop connection (it shows connected to my router and says that I have an excelent signal). But, I can't reach the internet. But, If I unplug the internet cable, and plug it in my laptop, the connection works fine. A friend told me that this could be caused intentionally by the internet provider, that they would block my signal to avoid me using a wireless router, trying to force consumers to sign their own wireless service. Thus, by this friend advice, I've cloned my laptop's MAC address to the router. It didn't work either.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E2000 Slower Than ISP (even When Wired)

Sep 7, 2012

I have a Cisco E2000. When i connect to my cable modem directly, I get 30-35 MBps down and about 10 up. When I plug in to my E2000 it does that at first... but slowly over time, the speed degrades, usually down to about 5-6 down and 3-4 up. If I unplug the router, it typically restores full speed, but not for long (a few days maybe). Also, when I unplug the router, it is pretty hot.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E2000 Bonjour Drops Out

Nov 11, 2011

I have an E2000 router that has an intermittent issue where Bonjour drops out. Suddenly my Apple TV won't see my computers, and my iPad won't see my network printer. This happens whether the Apple TV and computers are connected via wired or wireless interfaces.
 
Restarting the devices does not solve the issue.
 
Restarting the router solves the issue (until it happens again...)
 
My router is version 1.0, with 1.0.04 firmware.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E2000 PC Gets Choppy In 40 Mhz Mode

Jul 11, 2011

I have a e2000 router and a wmp600n wireless card in my desktop pc.  Everything works fine until I enable 40 mhz for faster speeds in the e2000 router.  When I do this the router switches from 20 mhz to 40 mhz and I get the faster speed.  But the effect of this is that my pc gets all "choppy".  What I mean is that everything freezes up every few sec.  For example when im minimizing windows, the windows freeze half way for about a sec then unfreezes.  My mouse does the same thing, even my sound is choppy.  I have to switch my router back to 20 mhz and then everything is fine again.
 
Using windows 7 64 bit

Using newest dirvers and firmware from Linksys.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E2000 - MacBook Constantly Not Getting IP?

Jul 2, 2011

I have the Linksys E2000 and set it up on MacBookPro no problems.  My iPhone 3G and my gf's iPhone4 connect no problem.  Also, I have an XBox 360 connected via ethernet cable.  Her MacBook however is constantly not getting an IP.  I set her up with an EZ Key, but every time she connects we have to go through the EZ key process where I run Cisco Connect from my laptop.  Why can't she just log in every time?  This is frustrating me as all other aspects of this router work fine.  I had her plugged into it as well with no problems.  Again, it works after a dual computer Cisco Connect cycle, but my computer isn't always home.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Cannot Connect To Internet Through E2000

Sep 20, 2011

For some reason my new E2000 will not connect to our Charter TV Cable internet service.  Another router works fine with same cabling.  I have reset EVERYTHING numerous times and cross patched -- hard patched, wireless to where my finers are bleeding.  My ISP is DHCP and requires no login. So my router is set to automatically connect.  Could the router be defective?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E2000-RM Signals Dropping In And Out

Jan 18, 2012

E2000-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.

I know that I can plug my laptop into the port on the hard wire router that the wireless was plugged into and I can get internet. So the only thing I can think of is the inernet is being blocked at the E2000.

Linksys Wireless Router :: How To Configure E2000 On Linux

Jan 11, 2012

I'm a Linux user and just got a new Linksys E2000 router. I attached the router to the computer with the Ethernet cable, and switched the router on, expecting it to work as DHCP server by default, so I could access routers configuration and set it up as needed. This however failed right away. Obviously the router didn't start DHCP, even after I reset with the reset button on the back. Now there is no way to accesss the router to configure it, since web interface path relies on router's DHCP function to access it through 192.168.1.1 which is not working. What can be done to enable it?

I searched the forum, but I did not find anything about the E2000 in bridge mode.
