Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT350N Can't Get App To Connect To Server Via External IP
May 23, 2012
I have a Linksys WRT350N which I am trying to use an app on my iPhone to connect to my server using the public/external IP of my cable modem. I have the necessary ports opened and also tried adding the server to the DMZ but no matter what I can not get the app to connect to my server via my external IP when I am on my WiFi. I can connect without any problems if I use the NATed IP on the server when my phone is connected to the WiFi. It also works fine connecting to the external IP if I am on any other WiFi or the cellular network (which shows ports are forwarded correctly). I just can't connect to the server when I use the external IP and I am on my WiFi network. This is annoying as I need to keep changing the app's settings back and forth between the external and internal IP whenever I am home or away. I am left thinking this is some kind of issue with the WRT350N not allowing local internal traffic to reach the external IP. Any way to resolve this, maybe by entering a static route?

I have a wrt350n at home and it works fine but it has only one little issue. When I connect my lap wireless I cant see the other work group pcs but if I wire the laptop there is no problem. I use ip to share files and not net bios but sometimes it would be great to find all the pcs on the work group easily and not memorize all the ips.
Disabled firewalls, updated firmware, tried to change network ip... nothing solved. Have no problems at work with an WRT54G.

I have the WRT350N router. to access my usb storage link from within the LAN it asks for user id and password as I want it. but to access it from outside my LAN it just connects without asking for user id and password. My guess is it has something to do with shares and how they are setup. I can't figure out how to set it up so it asks for user id and password when attempting to connect to my storage link from the net?

I am having issues with the WRT350n where I am getting an "No internet access" message. When I look at the wireless network connection I can see the wireless router and it says "connected" but when I scroll my mouse over the icon, it reads "No internet access". I try to access a webpage and it will not work. I originally had it connected and working properly in my home. However, I removed it and tried connecting in my office and started experiencing this problem. I did not run the setup using the CD provided. I just unplugged it from my home network and reconnected it to my office network, of course with a few passphrase changes and wireless MAC filters only allowing certain PC's to be able to access the internet. I double checked all MAC addresses of each device that I entered into the table and they are correct. All devices see the wireless network but cannot access the internet. Any suggestions? Should I re-run the installation using the CD?

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.

I have connected my LaCie rugged drive to the router and would like to use it as backup storage and as a way to stream video to my PS3.When I go to my advanced settings for the router and go to the storage heading I can see my LaCie and its specifications. There is a button next to it that says "claim", which I press, but nothing happens.I don't have the option to create a shared folder, and I can't access the drive from my Mac.On a somewhat related note, I've enabled the media server and can find it on my PS3, but there is nothing in the root folders. How do I put stuff (movies, music,etc.) into these root folders?

I tried to upgrade the firmware of my WRT350N but while upgrading my wife switched on the oven and.... yes, power down -> the upgrade has been interrupted. Now the router is no longer responding, it shows just the green power light on (not blinking). I tried all the resets I found googling (pressing the reset button for 30 sec, isconnecting power and reconnecting it again) but no way, there's no way to ping the router at its default address 192.168.1.1. All the leds are switched off (internet, usb, wireless, security) except the green power light. Is there another way to have it back or it is definitely lost?

I recently upgraded my internet speed service from my ISP (Brighthouse). They installed a gateway to replace their old modem, but I have had it bridged so it should act as a modem. Speedtest.net shows downloads on the order of 40-50 Mbps and uploads around 5 Mbps. If I try doing something interactively that pushes the speed and size of files (like flying over Google earth using my mouse to guide the direction and speed) my connection seems to hang. I have to reset the router (unpower and repower it) to get my internet connection to work. This has also happened when I quickly downloaded a series of large images - I click to get the next page fairly soon after the current page has finished downloaded. My router is a WRT350N.

I have this WRT350N with me for a long time. It always worked well, and for a while I didn't used it (like 1 year). Last morning, I set it up and put it to work again and it worked perfectly, but in the evening the wireless stop working. Through cable, the internet works finely.
The light does not turn on or blink anymore. The router setup says that SSID broadcast is enabled. But I can't find the network, even if I type its name and password (supposing it was in invisible mode or something like that).
So I restored the router to its normal configuration, and once again the wireless does not work. Is there something else I can do to make the wireless work again?

Just updated to the 1.01 firmware on my DIR-815 and now it doesn't handle loopbacks anymore.
For instance, I have a dyndns address of ericnewton76.dyndns.org. This points to my router. Works fine if you're NOT within the router's internal network, ie, outside hosts can get in just fine (try it... http:// , you'll see an IIS7 welcome screen)
However, when INSIDE the network, the requests don't get connected properly, and they used to... ie, I work with code, so my svn repo is at ericnewton76.dyndns.org/svn but inside my network it doesn't connect properly anymore (whereas it used to before firmware update)
So now I wish I could back-peddle to 1.0 firmware.

I have a hosted web server that has a website on it that needs to connect back to a database within our internal network. We have a Cisco WRVS4400N Wireless Router with 2 VLANS. VLAN 1 goes to a Watchguard Firebox which is connected to our internal network. VLAN 2 goues to our classroom network.
Our database is on VLAN 1. I have opened port 1433 on the Watchguard to allow SQL traffic from our Web Server. I can telnet from my workstation on VLAN 1 to the Web Server over port 1433, so I know the Web Server is not blocking anything. When I try to telnet from the Web Server to our Public IP address over port 1433, it fails.
I believe I have the firewall on the Cisco WRVS4400N off, so it shouldn't be blocking any traffic, but for the life of me I can't get this to work. I have been working on this for two days, and I NEED it to work. This was working up until last week, then it quit working. I am the only person making changes to our network, and there were no changes made during that time.

All of a sudden, I could not connect to the Internet. I kept getting error message "Can't connect to DNS server", or similar. I have an ATT/Yahoo account, Speed stream 5360 Modem and WRT160Nv3 router. All was working well until yesterday. I was finally able to speak to an ATT Tech today, and he guided me through several troubleshooting actions and we were finally able to connect just using the modem. But when I connect the router, the network works, but I can't connect to the Internet. If I disconnect the router, I can access the Internet. None of my settings has changed. I saved router settings on my computer, and have compared them; all the same. The tech finally said it could be the blue cable from router to computer, or the router. So I'm hoping for troubleshooting before I buy another cable and/or router.

I have an E1500 N300 Router, I've had it for 3 or 4 weeks now. Ever since I've had it, I can no longer send e-mails out with Eudora nor Outlook. I've tried using about 3 different SMTP's just to verify that it wasn't a server issue. I tried Port Forwarding in the router settings. I selected SMTP and POP3 and checked Enable on both, then save changes. But they don't appear to be taking, as when I go back in and try to set them again, it let's me and doesn't give me a Port Overlap warning. I've been told that I shouldn't need to mess with Port Forwarding at all, I just need to go into the Firewall settings and open up the SMTP, POP3, and IMAP ports. However, I don't see any settings in my Router settings to allow this, aside from Port Forwarding and it's not actually saving the changes. I will admit, I'm not all that great with this stuff, and this is the first time I've had any issues with a Router stopping me from E-mailing.

Since I have installed my new router, a Linksys EA6500, I have many problems to connect to my Exchange Server, which is located in my house, via Wifi. I tried to synchronize my Iphone and my Samsung tablet but it won't work. Most of the times I get the message that the Exchange server cannot be connected. When I turn off my Wifi en connect via my mobile provider I have no problems. When I am on a third party wifi I also can connect my server. Seems my own wifi causes lots of problems.

I got my ea4500 all set up. never had a media servor or anything like that, figured this would be an easier way. when i hook up my exteral i can find it but i can only view the files in windows media player. how can i just browse the folders manually? WMP doesnt let me browse the folders as they actually are on the HDD which is such a pain in the **bleep**.
shows a device in "network infrastructure" but it says problem sending command to the program when i click that. i dont want to have to view the HDD in WMP as a media device...

I have a EA3500 wireless router with the new style (smartwifi) firmware. I've scoured the web admin interface and can't find any sort of 'status' page that would tell me the external IP. I've looked through the support docs but they only show how to find internal/local IP.

How do I change my wireless router's (WRT54G) external IP address? I'm having IP conflicts with Yahoo and whenever I check the router's IP, it's always the same, despite the fact that my cable Internet provider uses DHCP to hand out IPs.

I cant remember where I read it but when I noticed that my HDD was running hot even when it was meant to be idle, I read that the router causes the storage device to run at full spin regardless.
I was wondering, do we know if that issue is fixed with this latest firmware update (June 14th)? I've had it on for about 10minutes but I'm not sure how long it takes to get to the temp that it was running at before.

I'm looking to setup a few ip security cameras in my house and would like to monitor from work. The first thing I did was give the ip camera a static ip on my local LAN 192.168.1.104. I also forwarded port 9000 to this ip. I then went to [URL] to look up my external ip address. I was able to obtain one ip for my router and another for my modem (disconnected router and went direct through modem).
I've since tried to ping my router WAN ip from work numerous times via http://24.x.xxx.xx:9000 and I get timeout errors. I've tried traceroute and it gets close, but times out the last 3 hops. I've had Comcast on the phone many times trying to resolve and needless to say they weren't able to work.

I am biulding a wireless network with 5508 WLC and trying to use ISE as radius server and also to redirect the web-login to it.I was trying to understand that to achieve the external web-login, do i need to use the raduius-nac option under advanced on the guest wireless where i am trying this out. and if not, where do i actually use it?So far what i have understood that i do need to have preauth ACL on the Layer 3 security, but the issue is there is no hit reaching the ISE.
