Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54g On Mac PowerPC G5 Not Working?

Sep 22, 2011

Running Comcast Business Class in my restaurant. I have a Mac Pro PowerPC G5 tower running OSX: 10.5.8. The Comcast guy hooked everything up along with the WRT54g i found in the basement (previous owner). Everything worked well, he programed the router through his internet pad; never touched my Mac.  All of a sudden my power outlet in which my modem and router are connected reset themselves. I reset them back on, however, my router Never worked again. My mac is directly connected to my modem, not router. I have it hooked up on LAN #4 (light turns on), however, after the outlet reset, the router wont even show up on my Modem's LAN. I cant open it open it on my browser, 192.168.0.1, or 1.1. I try the 30-30-30 reset, nothing. While looking for my own remedy, i think i downloaded the new firmware to my mac, nothing happened.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54g Seems To Have Quit Working?

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54g V3 Wi-Fi Stopped Working?

Feb 2, 2012

Last night, my wireless router suddenly stopped working. I no longer saw my router listed in my available wireless networks, and neither could my girlfriend from her computer. I unplugged the router to see if one of the available networks had disappeared in case my router had somehow been reset, and nothing changed so my computer isnt even seeing my router. Right now, I am wired through the router so I know the router works, but the wireless part doesnt for some reason. I was looking up stuff in the FAQ, and think the firmware is corrupted since the LEDs are all blinking. I was trying to update my firmware following the instructions I found using tftp.exe, however it failed. One problem is that I can't set up a static IP address since I need to access the web-based utility to check my DNS server but I cannot access the web-based utility anymore (maybe cause of the corrupted firmware?). On a related note, there is someone else in my building using a linksys with the default network name of linksys. I had changed my network's name and security-protected it, though that is all likely gone now since I tried to reset the router. My question is what will the network name of my router be if I saw it since "linksys" is already taken. or will there just be two of them?

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G Just Stopped Working?

Oct 19, 2007

I have WRT54G connected to a cable modem for internet service. Came home at lunch yesterday and all was working fine. Came home after work last night and couldn't connect to the internet. Called Charter cable this morning and their troubleshooting showed I can connect to the internet fine if I bypass the router, so the issue must be with the router (and of course not their problem...). How do I trouble shoot this? I've tried powering down the router and releasing and renewing IP addresses but it hasn't worked.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G - Password Not Working?

Apr 24, 2011

I have  a Lynksys WRT54G wireless router.  It works just fine until I try to put a password on it.  I go through the basic steps, it talkes all my information and tells me everything is good.  I try to sign on the internet and it tells me my password is invalid....and YES Im sure its the right password I entered.  I went to http://192.168.1.1/wireless.htm and did all the necessary instructions, and still, it doesn't work. I can change my network name and it works.  As long as I leave it unprotected, everything works fine, but when I add the password, it tells me its invalid.  I even used 123456 so as to make sure it was the right one.

I have the Linksys WRT54G And it was working fine for years! Then today my computer shut down and when I turned it back on there was a connection but my computer was not responding to any commands.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G - Getting Connection And Proper Working?

Sep 8, 2012

I have 2 laptops in my home, I had no problem getting one to connect to the internet. The second one I'm having trouble connecting, I am wireless, I didn't have a problem at my old house with another laptop connecting to the internet with this router. I'm trying to save myself some money by not going through my wireless company, and end up having to get their router, which I already have their modem.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G Wired Connection Stopped Working?

Jun 24, 2012

I have the WRT54G router for years and use it to provide both a wireless network for our home computers and a wired network for by internet phone that connects me to my office phone system and for my work computer and printer. Last week, the wired network stopped working. I checked the wiring and plugged my wire into all four of the ports in the back of the router with no success.  I followed the troubleshooting procedure that I found and changed the MTU setting.  I tried to update the firmware but the screen seemed to lock up and I was unable to complete the task.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Internet Connection No Longer Working With WRT54G?

Sep 28, 2011

I have had a WRT54G V3 router working successfully for a number of years now with a couple wireless PCs through a cable modem with Comcast as my ISP.  All of a sudden yesterday, neither PC could access the internet.  No changes had been made to the router.
 
I contacted Comcast and they of course had me hard-wire one of my PCs into the cable modem.  That worked and I was able to access the internet.  However, when I tried to put the router back in place (in either a wired or wireless fashion), I could not access the internet.
 
I've tried following the online Linksys troubleshooting document ion.  The lights that should be lit on the router are lit.  I can access the router setup web page which shows the settings still intact.  I've tried going through the power sequencing to no avail.  Comcast says my router is the culprit of my problem, but I don't know why it would all of a sudden stop working.  My wireless printer still works so it detects a signal and my PC shows it's connected, but no internet access is possible.
 
What do I need to do?  Are there any other diagnostic tools available?  I'm out-of-warranty.

Linksys WRT54G / LAN Not Working Except For One Computer?

Aug 26, 2011

Three computers (two laptops - both XP, one desktop - XP) suddenly couldn't access the Internet through LAN (the Local Area Connection icon always stays disconnected with the three computers) after working perfectly fine for months. The thing is one desktop computer - XP still can connect through LAN and the wireless connection is still working. So I don't know if the problem is with the computers who can't connect through LAN or the router itself, a LINKSYS WRT54G.

Linksys WRT54g Suddenly Stopped Working?

Nov 1, 2012

called my internet company yesterday with a problem that my internet was not working.. so we went through some steps and basically he had me remove the wireless cord from the router put it into my computer (at the time it wasn't working via that either) and reset my ip, it started working after that and he just said I must've gotten a faulty ip. Now it still won't get internet from my router, we all have laptops in the house so wifi is essential. The internet light on the router still blinks green.[CODE]

Networking :: After Power Outage Router No Longer Working WRT54G

Feb 10, 2011

Two days ago there was a quick power outage here, just one of those flicks off flicks back on deals, but when it came back on I noticed my internet wasn't working. Couldn't figure out what the deal was so after trying a few other things I ended up eliminating my Linksys WRT54G router and just using my DSL modem. Internet works fine.

Now, I've always been kind of sketchy on networking stuff, but I don't think there router is broken I just think it's been reset or something and now I don't know what setting I need to change to get it back to working order.

Here's the kicker though. I had the DSL modem in bridge mode and the router handling traffic before but I had a huge issue with that where my Steam would only download at 10-15 KB/s. Not only that but it would take forever to login and crash constantly. This would happen on my brother's computer too, which is on the same network. I could never figure out how to fix it as forwarding ports had no effect and every other fix I could think of amounted to nothing as well. Hell, I even did a fresh install to no avail.

Now going straight into the modem my Steam is downloading at full speed and there's no slow login or crashing issues. The thing that boggles my mind though is that more than once before I tried doing this very same thing, going straight into the modem, and it didn't fix the problem.

Ideally I want to get the router back up and running and keep my Steam in full working order, essentially to have my cake and eat it too, but the priority is to get the router back up in running as I have another PC on this network, plus a 360, a PC, a wireless printer, and two Wii's.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G Can't Get Out To Web

Jul 5, 2011

I'm looking to upgrade my WRT54G as I have had NO luck in getting my Galaxy Tab to connect through it so far (can connect and get an IP address but can't get out to the web) and have had intermittent problems with my Blu-ray lately.  I am looking for something with the best affordable range, live 3 floors down from the current one and get about 3/4 signal strength so there's not much interference it seems.  I watch a lot of online content through Hulu, Netflix, and LMB games and share with 2 other people.I am looking at the E series, probably the E1200, 1500 or 1550 as they seem to meet my needs.  Any users have any advice about the ease of install and use of either of these?  Or would it be better to get a gateway as we are considering going from DSL to U-verse service, twice the speed for $2/month more

WRT54G / Wireless Stops Working When Desktop Powered On

Jan 24, 2013

Background info:
Comcast cable internet and TV
Regular modem
Linksys WRT54G router
Windows7 desktop

The problem I'm seeing is that our wireless connection cuts out about 5 minutes after turning on our main desktop. Turn off the main desktop and wireless begins to work again. Throughout all of this, the wired connection works fine, and I have no problem connecting to the router either.

Using An Old Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G Router As A Switch?

May 4, 2012

I have an old wireless router lying behind me and I want to use that old router as a switch. That old router is a knock-off,no-name router brand called "Gigafast" and the model number is WF19-CAPR. There are also variants to that router name as well.The router that I currently have is a Linksys WRT54G wireless-G router. I'm planning to upgrade the wireless router in favor of Wireless-N in the near future.I want to know how can I use that particular Gigafast router as a switch and I want to link that router up to my WRT54G router. The scenario goes as follows:

Cable internet connection ----> WRT54G router ---> Gigafast router (as a switch)

The IP address for the WRT54G router is 192.168.1.1, while the Gigafast router is 192.168.1.254. I may know by now that I have to disable DHCP on the gigafast router and I have to change an IP address to something that is "not in range" with the WRT54G router, am I right?I want to expand the number of ports, so I can connect with future devices such as a VoIP ATA adapter, a laptop and possibly an entertainment box (i.e. Apple TV or Boxee box)

I have a WRT54G wireless router that I haven't used in years because my old cable provider supplied me with a router.  I recently switched cable providers & they don't provide a wireless routers.  I would like to use my WRT54G router, but I don't have the cd.  I figured it wasn't a problem because I can just do a manual setup using the ip address 192.168.1.1.  I receive the pop up window to enter the user name & password.  I follow the instructions & just type in the password field the word admin & l left the user name blank but it doesn't work.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Wrt54g Can't Get To Internet

Jul 8, 2011

My 'network' looks like this:
 
CABLE MODEM ===> WRT54G
WRT54G Port1 ===> PC
 
PC is running Windows/XP sp3 with all updates installed. It has no wireless adapter.WRT54G model number sticker shows ver.2. I don't think the firmware has ever been upgraded.This used to work. What has changed? The laptop that used to connect wireless is dead. I now have a 2nd PC that sits on the same table as the old PC. It has no wireless adapter at this point, but eventually either it, or the old computer, will be getting its internet connection wireless-ly, as the computers will be physically in separate rooms. I can't see how these changes would affect the operation of the router.
