Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT160N Can't Be Accessed By Other Computers Unless Change SSID Name

Oct 15, 2011

Been using the WRT160N for a while now and it works great except for one issue. Every few weeks the wireless can't be accessed by the other computers unless I change the SSID name. It was frustrating to figure out, but simply changing the name makes it accessible again.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Wrt160n - Original Network SSID Had Been Changed?

Oct 8, 2009

I have a wrt160n router set up at a friends house that i would connect my windows xp laptor to when i would go there.  it always worked fine. i recently got a new laptop with vista 64 bit OS.  i went to my friends today and connected via wireless for the first time.  i expected to get prompted for the security key.  instead it asked for the pin #.  the pin number was something new i noticed when i replaced an older linksys with the new wrt160n so i had it in my notes.  i entered the pin number and connected to the wireless router.  but then my friend laptop could not connect and said it couldnt find the network.  when i viewed the available networks, i noticed that the original network SSID had been changed to my vista laptop's computer name.  i had to physically connect my laptop to the router and reconfigure the settings of the wireless network. then my friend was able to see the available network and automatically connect..

Linksys Wireless Router :: How To Change Passphrase On WRT160N V3

Sep 17, 2012

A few months ago, I purchase, installed and configured a WRT 160N V3. And I couldn't be happier. I now would like to go back and change the passphrase that a user needs to enter when they connecting to my router. Currently it uses the default value. And I would like to make it a bit more friendly. I found a number of postings dealing with setting retrieving or changing the Admin password.
 
But I was not able to find anything on changing the “passphrase”. There probably are a number of postings on the subject, and I simply overlooked them.

D-Link DIR-655 :: Need To Block Certain IP Address To Be Accessed By All Computers

Dec 3, 2011

Bought DIR-655 from Amazon. Rev. B. Come with 2.00NA firmware. Updated to latest one, and there are a lot of problems, to most of them, I was not able find any solution. Here they start:

1. WIFI SPEED PROBLEMS.No matter what speed, parameters, channel, mode, etc I select, router keeps working on 20mhz channel width. So I never get speeds above 65 mbit. In absolutely same conditions, my DIR-300 B1 (with DD-WRT firmware) gives me stable 150mbit. SO I KINDLY ASK, MAYBE THERE IS A WAY TO FORCE "40 MHZ ONLY" OPTION?

2. PASSWORD PROBLEMS.Router came with no admin password, I enter new password, hit "update" it says - wait 20 sec, after that, login page is displayed, but, new pasword does not works! since it asks again for empty password!

3. FILTERING PROBLEMS.I need to block certain IP address to be accesed by all my computers. Say this is 111.111.111.111 . So I added inbound filter rule, to block access to that IP. It does not works - IP is still accesible.

4. MORE FILTERING PROBLEMS.Since above mentioned method does not works, I have to use "ACCESS CONTROL" feature. It does works, but it causes another problem, with access control enabled, all webpages with form submit stop to work. For example, if I'll have that feature enabled, when I press "post" on this webpage, it instantly will go to "this page cannot be displayed".

I bought this router solely for one purpose - I was happy with speed of my DIR-300, but I needed gigabit for my computers. So I thought, instead of buying separate switch, I'd better buy a router with gigabit. I was suggested to get TP-LINK 1043, since it's quite popular, alternate firmwares available and so on, but I refused to buy it, since I thought that some chinese company does not worth my attention. So I bought this D-Link (for almost 2x price of TP-Link) and having huge problems as you can see.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT610N Network Drive Can't Be Accessed By Any Computer

Feb 27, 2013

I have a WRT610N v2 with current firmware.  The hard drive is a Western Digital Elements formatted to NTFS and already has music and photos so that other computers in the house can view them. This setup was done awhile back, maybe even a year ago.
 
Anyway, I can map the network drive and see everything there, but then after awhile (minutes - maybe 10) of idle time, the network drive can't be accessed by any computer, either as the mapped drive (W or by clicking the WRT610N in the network tree. It's like it goes to sleep and can't be awakened by activity.
 
I have searched the forums here and at WD but haven't found a solution or even this exact problem.  I did find a utility on the WD site that is supposed to fix/eliminate the short idle time, but it didn't seem to work.

Cisco Wireless :: WLC 5508 Cannot Change SSID

Dec 6, 2012

I have an issue where I cannot get clients to change SSID.  I have two SSID, one WPA2 secure, one open guest.  The secure is locally switched via Flexconnect and the guest is centrally switched.  Both of them work.  I have been able to test this and both work as intended.  The problem is that once you connect to one of them, either secure or guest, you cannot then change to the other.  The only way to change is to delete the dhcp entry from the scope and then do it. 
 
Fast SSID change is enabled.  I also have debug client output from when the client fails when you try to switch which I will include below.  I also pulled some wireshark captures and those show me that the DHCP ack packets are trying to give the client the ip address from the incorrect/previous scope.  So basically it's like FAST SSID change is not working and the client is never being disassociated properly??
 
I am totally stumped and even though the client will most likely not be switched between SSID that often I would still like to know the solution.

Change SSID Password On Dell Wireless 1395 WLAN Mini Card

Jun 11, 2012

I had to default my wireless router " Netgear WGR14V6" and since then I haven't been able to connect with my wireless card. I can physically connect to it with a cable but I can't access it with the wireless card. When I look at the properties it says that it is working fine but I can't seem to find where to change the "SSID and the security phrase". Usually when it is up and running it has a status button and when you click on it there is a tab that you click on and it shows you the SSID and the rest, but now since it is not connected there isn't anything that I can find to change this.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT160N V3 Cuts In And Out

May 1, 2010

I have a wrt160n v3. This is the 3rd one - both the first 2 were defective. I have spent approximately 8 hours troubleshooting the other 2 only to be told they're defective. So, I got a new one. Now, this one keeps cutting in and out. I want as my iPhone constantly switches from 3G to wifi on and over every minute. It really ticks me off! What can I do to fix this? This is a different issue than the original one (very slow) and 2nd (no signal). It's disappointing for a $90 router to do this. I also see the wireless icon on the router flash.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT160N V3 Keeps Disconnecting

I have a WRT160N v3 Linksys Router and it keeps disconnecting and then reconnecting. It only disconnects wirelessly. LAN still works fine.I have tried a lot of different methods to solve this issue, but none seem to work.I am very dissappointed in the quality of the product. It has done this every since it was bought. I personally would have sent it in for repairs, but others in my household would not have agreed to that.
