Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G V8 - Router Won't Work After Changing SSID

Dec 1, 2011

I just reset my router to the factory settings in order to make some changes to it. However, when I tried to change the SSID to a unique name, I was unable to connect my computer to the wireless network. I then reset my security settings and left the SSID to the default name "linksys_SES_54125" and it is working just fine. I tried to connect with two separate computers both running Windows 7. My router is the WRT54G v8
 
why I wouldn't be able to connect to my wireless network when I change the SSID?

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G - Printer IP Address Keeps Changing

Jul 4, 2011

Much of the time my wireless printer is offline relative to computers on my LAN because the IP Address has been changed to some value different than what the computer thinks it should be.  So I have to figure out what the IP Address is of the printer then modify the printer port on the PC to point to the correct address.  If this only happened rarely or if I could easily remember the steps I have to take to remedy the situation, I guess this would not be such a big deal.  But it happens a lot and I'm old and alzheimery.  So my question is: how do I get the router to assign the same IP Address to the printer all of the time?

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G Printer Won't Work

Feb 23, 2013

I've been using this router for several years with a wireless connection to an iPhone, and wired connections to a computer running Windows Vista, a computer running Windows XP (only connected occasionally and never during these tests), a NetTalk telephone ATA, and a Brother printer. I just got a Windows 8 laptop with wireless. I found that the laptop wouldn't connect wired until I cycled power to the router and rebooted the laptop. OK, that's working to get the laptop to the internet. Vista and iPhone are still working. Printer won't work? Use an IP scanner and the printer is just not there although the light on the router is solid for it. Turn off laptop and cycle power and everything else is back to normal. Let's try wireless. Laptop will not connect. Is it something with the printer? Turn off printer, cycle power, and reboot and laptop wireless now works. Turn on printer and printer doesn't work again.  Unplug ATA (hey, it's something to try), cycle power, reboot, everything except telephone is working! Plug ATA back in, no telephone. Cycle power. Back to square one with everything working except laptop. Turn off iPhone, reboot laptop, laptop now OK but printer has disappeared again. Turn iPhone back on and it won't connect either. Cycle power with printer off and everything else works again.

Linksys WRT54G - Router Doesn't Work Anymore

Jul 18, 2011

Comcast sent out a new modem a few days ago. The reason for this was our internet had gone out for a while, they came in and said our modem was fried. I have internet access by directly wiring from the modem to my computer.My router doesn't work anymore. I have a local network, but no internet access. I'm using a Linksys WRT54G, and I don't really know what to do.As far as I remember, setting everything to defaults and factory settings was how I set up my router in the first place and it just worked.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1000 - Can't Access Router Settings After Changing To Static IP

Jun 26, 2012

I installed an IP camera, and had to change my E1000 router settings to a static IP address.  Now I can't access the router settings.  192.168.1.1 is still the default gateway, but it won't open in any browser.
 
I'm reluctant to do a reset because it took me quite a while to figure out how to get the IP camera and port forwarding working (it does!), and I'd hate to do it all again and come to the same place.  I'm not very good at this stuff, and it's a small miracle that I did it once.

Linksys WRT54G Routers - No SSID Or Password

Mar 27, 2011

In the past couple of years, I've picked up a couple of Linksys WRT54G routers for a buck or two at flea markets. I hadn't thought about the fact that no assigned SSID or Password came with them. I downloaded the Linksys set-up files from their website and recently set up both of them for relatives. They work great but they are "unsecured networks". I'd like to change that.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WTR160N - Changing From Unsecured To Secured

Dec 13, 2012

I have a WTR160N-RM.  I just moved and the cable technician hooked it up unsecured.  I didn't catch it until he left.  I can access the Linksys webite with the standard IP address and generic password, but I'm not sure what needs to be changed.  I've looked at several UTube videos and read some online instructions, but they all different a bit.  How I can secure my wireless again?  I have an old Toshiba LT that just keeps on tickin'.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1500 After Changing Name / Password / Speed Became Much Slower

After changing name and password, the speed became much slower. Checking it with speed test, download is just 0.19 Mbps while upload is 3 Mbps. Wired speed is much better, download is 20 Mbps. So it is not the problem of I provider, comcast. How to solve this problem? I rebooted and reset it already.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E3000 Adding To Network Without Changing Anything On RouteFinder

Jan 5, 2012

I am trying to add the E3000 to my existing network to provide Wireless Connectivity for my users.  The main router is a RouteFinder SOHO VPN (RF560).  The RouteFinder acts as a gateway and provides DHCP.  I do not want to change it's role or settings.  When I added the E3000 using a Lan-to-Lan connection to the RouteFinder, all users lost access to the internet.  As a quick fix as I was working on something else at the time, I just unplugged the E3000.  Now I am reading through Article 3733 that I was originally referred to and that has me changing the settings on the RouteFinder which I do not want to do.  Is there any way to accomplish adding this to my network without changing anything on the RouteFinder at all???  By the way...I am located in another state than this router and network.  I can call and have someone plug and unplug stuff but all of the configuration has to be done remotely.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G - Password For Access Router's Web Utility?

Aug 10, 2008

I have tried multiple times to hard reset my Wireless G WRT54G ver.2 router, but have had no success. I held the reset for 15 sec, 30 sec, 2 min, etc and also tried holding it and then unplugging it and then plugging it back in. I've tried everything that I have seen suggested. My problem is that I don't know what the password is to access my router's web utility thing and I need to change the IP address. With every reset attempt, I hope that the default admin password will work, but sadly no.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G V1 Disconnect Power From Router For About 15 Seconds / Plug It Back In

Apr 27, 2013

I have a Linksys WRT54G2 v1 router which is having a daily problem of connectiing to the Internet on my home wireless LAN. My temporary solution is to disconnect the power from the router for about 15 seconds and plug it back in .... and all is well.... at least for another day or so.The real problem is that instead of properly connecting to IPv4 address 192.168.1.100 ..... it randomly connects to Autoconfiguration IPv4 address 169.254.29.54 When this problem occurs the SSID list shows both my 192 connection as well as a public network with no Internet connection?
 
I've used this router for several years without a problem until I recently bought a new  Canon wireless MG5320 printer which initially had problems connecting to my LAN. After a telco with tech support the printer works fine but now I am now experiencing the Autoconfig address problem.My LAN consist of the WRT54G router, a Motorola cable modem, a Lenovo laptop running Win7 64bit, a Hp desktop running Win7 64bit  and the Canon wireless printer. (all connected wirelessly)

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT160NL Changing File Sizes On Data Storage

When I'm copying files from PC USB they are corrupted on the network storage and not accessible. When I'm copying one file of size 350 Mb on the Network Storage via WIFI working fine but is saved with size of 2,7 Gb.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1200 Changing Out Ethernet Cables / Checking Connections

Apr 25, 2012

ISP : Charter Communications
Modem : Motorola SURFboard SB6121
Router : Linksys E1200
 
I started out installed on the CD and then I kept getting messages about not being set up and finally it kicked me out. So I started out with the basics, changing out ethernet cables and checking connections. I then tried cycling the modem, router, computer and still no go. As soon as I plug the modem straight back into the computer it kicks back on. So then I tried some other trouble shooting ideas on the forums with the last being MAC address clone, save changes, release renew IP, and finally another round of cycling and I still can't get it to work.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Need Older Firmware For WRT54G V6 Router

Aug 20, 2011

I was  using dd-wrt to fix a problem that my router was having (I wasn't able host some online games when router QOS is enabled).  However, i can't couldn't take that crappy firmware anymore (its web gui was way to slow, painfully slow actually and it crashed alot) and will never use it again in life.  I was finally able to get back to the default linksys firmware but now I have the same previous problem.  I am now using the latest firmware "Firmware Version v1.02.8' for my WRT54g v6.  I never backed up up the previous firmware for this router before i upgraded to v1.02.8 so any link to a previous version or the first version of firmware for this router that will be great.  I've been look all around the internet and I can't find it, from searching around i found out that linksys hand an ftp archive of firmwares but it stopped working around 2010.   So, where i can get at older version, or even a third party firmware OTHER THAN DD-WRT that works with the WRT54g v6 router.
 
I don't even know if the older firmware would fix this problem, but I dont want to have to be disabling QOS every time i want to play this game because the people in my house will hog the bandwidth and i will get lag, but its worth a shot.
