Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G2 - Connect Ethernet Switch (for Hardwired Connections)?

Dec 29, 2011

In my main office, I have a cable modem which is connected to my main E4200 router. All of my equipment (except my Ooma) is served by the E4200. The E4200 broadcasts a wireless network.In my basement, I have a Wii / entertainment center. The E4200 signal from upstairs isn't strong enough to stream video.
 
I bought the WET610N and have successfully set it up to interact with the E4200 wirelss network. I can hardwire my laptop to the WET610N and verify the internet works greatHowever, the Wii must connect over wireless. I have other equipment in the basement which would benefit from an internet connection. So, I want to A) connect the ESXS88W 10/100 8-port workgroup switch I have to the WET610N *AND* also broadcast a wireless signal in my basement (assuming the wireless network I see in the basement is the same "old" one from upstairs which has not benefited from the WET610N).
 
How can I set up my WRT54G2 to broadcast a wireless signal in the basement so that it leverages the E4200 signal served by the WET610N, while also having the workgroup switch offer hardwired connections to my other equipment (like Dish Network receiver)? It doesn't seem to work by just plugging the WRT54G2 into the workgroup switch.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Wrt54g2 V1 No Wifi Connections Available

Oct 24, 2011

I'm out in the middle of nowhere and just set up a few days ago a WRT54G2 V1 wireless 4-port router a family member had laying around. I had no problem getting it working and running. About an hour ago I noticed I wasn't picking up the wireless with my cell phone and went to check it on my laptop, I had no wireless connections available. It wasn't my adapter or anything since I know there are no other connections out where I am. I went to reset the router and found it had taken issue with that. Once I powered everything back on the router stopped responding and became "stuck" in an annoying state. It doesn't respond to the reset button, unplugging and replugging, nothing. Whether the internet was plugged in or not it will not move past what it's doing now.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G2 Ethernet Cable Not Connected

Feb 17, 2013

I'm using a refurbished WRT54G2 v1.5 router.  I've had the router for two and a half years and have never had a problem. I recently unplugged my DSL modem and this router to move them, and when I plugged them in again, the router stopped picking up the internet signal from the DSL modem. I'm able to get internet when I hardwire directly to the modem though. I tried resetting the router and setting the router up from scratch again, but now I just get error 321 Ethernet cable not connected when I try and run the setup cd.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G2 V1 - Access PPPoE Modem With Wired Ethernet?

Oct 13, 2011

I am using the WRT54G2 connected to a cable modem that requires a PPPoE login.  I followed the Service Providers instructions and cloned the modems MAC address to the WRT54G and setup the PPPoE user id and password.  I can then plug my PC into one of the Ethernet connections on the back of the WRT54G and everything works as expected.  First I connect to the WRT54G2 and then I open a PPPoE connection in my network settings and it logs into the service provider and everything works as expected.  But when I connect to the WRT5G2 wirelessly I connect to the AP fine.  When I open the same PPPoE connection to the service provider it fails, the message says I have the wrong userid or password or that the protocol is not supported.  Of course I know the userid and password is correct because it works when connected with Ethernet cable.  I have tried disabling the security on the wireless network but that did not seem to work.The modem is a HomePNA HCNA Voice Endpoint.I am at the latest firmware 1.0.04.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Cannot Connect To WRT54G2

Oct 5, 2011

Went away on vacation for a couple of weeks and when I got back my Linksys WRT54G2 has lost it's configuration.  It's showing a WiFi signal, but is no longer password protected.
 
I've tried connecting with a desktop on the same network, to 192.168.1.11, but that address is not connecting.  I tried to reach it with my iPad wirelessly, and it's giving me the login screen, but not allowing me to login.  I tried to use the reset button on the back to reset it to the factory default, but then I should be able to login with no username and the password of "admin", correct?  But that's not getting me in either.
 
I'd like to get this network password protected again and not offer a signal to all of my neighbors.

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 :: Can't Connect To Internet Using WRT54G2 V1

Jul 8, 2011

When I connect the ethernet directly to my mac the internet works fine, but when I try to connect through my Linksys WRT54G2 V1 Wireless-G Broadband Router I can't connect to the internet. Omitting a few minor problems, my router has been working fine for the past year and a half. Recently it started giving me trouble so i have started trying a number of things to fix it, but I'm no expert in this category. The other day i tried updating the firmware which actually worked for a couple of hours, but then stopped working again.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Can't Connect Wirelessly To WRT54G2

Jan 2, 2009

I have a WRT54G2 router with a desktop wired to it. The desktop is mine and my roommate wirelessly connects with her laptop and has been doing so no problem for about 6 months (ever since we got the router). On Christmas Eve, she was connected, went out, came home and found she'd lost her wireless connection. Now she can't get it back.I can still get online on the desktop.i've power cycled to no avail. What is weird is sometimes she will click on the list of available networks (so she can choose which she wants to connect to) and mine WILL be there, other times it will NOT. If she does happen to catch it at a moment when my network is there, and she tries to connect using the passphrase, it says "Trying to connect" or something to that effect, for like 3 minutes and then nothing happens. Also, not that I would need to, but if I go to "connect to" on my PC (as if I were looking to choose a network to connect to), my network name doesn't always show. It is random. Sometimes it does not even show when I go to "Networks" on my desktop.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G2 V1 Cannot Connect With Smart Phone

Nov 5, 2011

I recently purchased a smart phone that can use my wireless access to get to the internet, however the phone cannot connect. I have verified that I am using the correct password and it is finding the network just fine, it just can't connect. I have had this problem with my laptops as well, but with them I just copied the key to a USB key and used that to get them going. I don't have that ability with the smart phone. 
 
how to best troubleshoot this issue and resolve it? I have also reset the router to allow anonymous internet access with no positive result there either.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Unable To Connect To WRT54G2 Config Page?

Jul 11, 2011

I recently (~month ago) switched to a new computer after my old one (which I had configured the router on previously with no problems) died.Since then, I have been unable to access my router's config page (entering in the ip address simply results in a blank page with no prompt for username/password). Switching browsers (I've tried Firefox 5 and IE 8) does not solve the problem, nor does disabling AdBlockPlus/NoScript on Firefox. Any way to access my router so I can begin forwarding ports again?

Additional Hardwired Connections Not Detected?

Apr 29, 2012

I've been running a small home network with no problems for the last year. I'm unsuccessfully attempting to add a wired connection in my basement, but the laptops do not recognize the connection. I've tried laptops running Vista and WinXP -- neither works.

The attached graphic depicts the current state of the network and also identifies the problem connections. At first I thought my new CAT-5 cables were the problem, but I've ruled that out by swapping the cable from my desktop (hardwired to the wireless router) to the laptop.

I've also pasted the IPCONFIG text from the desktop pictured in the attachment. Is there any obvious reason that setup this isn't working??

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G2 Doesn't Automatically Connect To Internet On Computer Start-up

Aug 12, 2012

My WRT54G2 v1 does not automatically connect to the internet on computer start-up. The computer will say "Connected, No Internet Access" In order to fix it I have to unplug the router and then plug it back in. This happens to any computer that tries to get online from a cold start-up. The router must always be unplugged, then plugged back in, then it will have internet access (and will generally maintain it throughout the session and even if the computer is restarted, i.e. warm boot). I have downloaded the latest firmware uprade.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Slow Download Speed When Hardwired To E4200?

Apr 14, 2012

Im trying to optimize my E4200 settings and Ive noted that ping and download speeds are extremely slow for the internet service I signed up for. Ping speeds are consistently more than 1000ms and dowload speeds typically are less than 3Mbps. These are for both wireless and wired connections to the E4200 router.
 
When I disconnect the router and hardwire my laptop directly to the the modem, ping speeds are less than 100ms and download speeds are 20Mbps.
 
Simply put, webpage loading is at a snails pace with wireless and wired connection the router, but blazing fast when hardwired directly to the modem.
 
On a seperate issue, the iMac I have is also **bleep** slow even when hardwired directly to the modem. Is there an obvious router setting Im screwing up?  Router is updated with the latest software.

Linksys Wireless Adapters :: WRT54G2 - Can't Connect Using Password

Apr 2, 2009

Just got the WRT54G2 and setup it fine with or without encrytion and passwords - however when I setup the other 2 pcs on my network - the only way I can get them setup and going is WITHOUT encryption and password protection - setiing up without encryption on those works fine, but it defeats the purpose of what I'm trying to do.  I was on the phone with Linksys for over an hour and they can't seem to get it to work either - guess they got stumped and after an hour - I was put on hold and then cut off.
