Linksys Wireless Router :: V1 WRT54GS - How To Change NAT From Moderate To Open
Feb 17, 2008
I have a v1 WRT54GS And I am currently fustrated. After anouther laptop coming into this house my Xbox Live Functions have locked up from the NAT turning to Moderate. Now I have tried many things to change it but nothing seems to work. I am using the Microsft Wireless Adapter for the 360.
I upgraded the firmware on my wrt54gs this morning and after the upgrade i have a light on the front where it says ( Cisco Systems ) is this anything to worry about?the upgrade was from Ver.3 to Ver.4.Ubuntu 11.04 on a Fujitsu lifebook t4210 tablet pc.in a world of open source who needs windows and gates
I have a couple of Linksys WRT54GS V7 routers, they work fine, with the exception that when I login to the web interface, I select the drop down box for DHCP to change it to a static IP, the page refreshes, but comes right back to the same screen with DHCP selected again, I can change the time zone with no issues, I entered the Static DNS info. I've tried a couple of different PC's with a couple of different IE versions. I already updated to the newest firmware, firmware is 7.50.8, I've also factory reset it a couple of times, and I've just run into a brick wall. I've setup hundreds of these routers before so it's not like I don't know how.
how to change my nat from moderate to open so i can play xbox without any problems. But the weird thing is my nat used to be open but it changed to moderate and i have recently bought the linksys e2000 and it was open at first but not anymore.
Recently Ive been having issues with connecting to games on my PS3, Ive been trying to do things like Port Forwarding like I did on my old router but the way this router is set up is extremely different. On this router it seems there is no Port Forwarding it's now Port Triggering and it seems to require more info than Forwarding does.I should mention Im using a Router from Centurylink and I have no Admin powers, I can still go in and do things with ports but how I would change my NAT type or Port Trigger
I'm trying to change my NAT type on my PS3 from strict to open. My router is a WRT120N and I'm using cable internet. it down so I can understand what you're saying.
My son plays Xbox and asked me to investigate settings on my router that will allow him better play on his Xbox LIVE. From what I've found out I need to trigger ports in my router settings.I have a Linksys E3000 router. His Xbox is plugged directly in from the router.
I have router as mentioned in subject. Games i'm playing most online are assassin's creed brotherhood, assassin's creed revelations and both of them show to me i have moderate nat.Exact message in revelations is:
"Upload Bad Your game experience will not be satisfactory, you might will not be able to use voicechat. Try to limit the network traffic to enhance your performances.Second part of this message goes like that:
"Nat classification Moderate You will not be able to play or communicate with players who have strict nat."
When i connect internet to my pc directly via ethernet modem (asmax AR801MP) nat is opened.
My ISP is polish Dialog.
How should i configure this router to get in PC games nat opened? I already have firewall disabled. Router's firmware updated to latest available one v1.0.06
I'm having trouble getting our xboxes to show up as open on Xbox Live. I was able to do it for one xbox by assigning static IP and doing port forwarding, but this doesn't work for more than one. I have now done every option I can find and get the same result of moderate NAT no matter what. I have entered the ports in port range triggering, tried UPnP both on and off, filter anonymous internet requests is disabled, filter NAT redirection disabled, and have upgraded the firmware. I don't know if there is anything that can even be done at this point. On a previous router I had this issue was very simple and just had to disable a certain NAT box but with this new one nothing seems to work.
we got two xbox 360 at home. the one in my room is wired to the router and the other one is in the other room wireless. Since I bought the EA4500 I been having the NAT problem.I bought it like 4-5 days ago. Before I had the E4200 and it was working fine on both consoles. Yesterday I did the Port Triggering and nothing changed, NAT type does not Open. One of the xbox sometimes has Open NAT Type and the other xbox Moderate NAT Type. I was using Cisco Connect Cloud but yesterday I went back to the classic layout.
I have setup vlan on my router using DD-WRT. Everything works fine except vlan2 computer can only visit google.com and msn.com (they got unable to display the page when visit amazon or ebay). When I tried to ping yahoo in for vlan2. I got response but the ping is a bit high (500~600), but it shouldn't have problem opening webpage eventually.
Main Router: Linksys WRT54GS V7.2 (with DD-WRT) port 1 is configured for vlan2 vlan1 computers DHCP enable ip: 192.168.1.10~192.168.1.20 Default gateway:192.168.1.1 subnet:255.255.255.0
have one laptop setup as wireless a desktop attached by wire, received a netbook and when i go on wireless i see my whatever you call it and then it asks me for my password.
I have a Wireless-G broadband router WRT54GS and have figured out how to enable logging.This gives me the IP addresses, but I would like to be able to easily see the FQDN so I can see what my kids are looking at on the web.Is there a way to get that information via the built in logging feature?If not is there a way to take the log file and run this through sometype of program that will generate the FQDN's?
I have a 2wire modem connected to the Internet port of my WRT54GS which is connected to a D link DSS 16+ Fast Ethernet switch. Without the switch, I can connect wired and wirelessly to my WRT54GS. However, when I put connect my any port of my D link switch to ports 1 - 5 of WRT54GS, I loose internet all together either wired/wireless to the router or wired to the D-link switch.I wonder why the IP Address will change as I understand that the switch is just a pass through switch.
I'm having a very difficult time getting my WRT54GS to work with my Westell 6100 modem. I've been bouncing around gathering info, and what I've learned is that the goofy way CenturyLink tech support told me to hook up my old wired router (modem line into outgoing (LAN) router port) is because the Westell 6100 is a "smart modem/router". Therefore, when I run the Linksys setup CD, it sees the modem as a router, and won't properly configure. I've also learned that the Westell modem can be "dumbed down" into simply a modem by putting it into "bridge mode", which is where I'm at right now - trying to get it reset to factory defaults and resetting the connection type from PPPoE to Bridge. In the meantime, I also reset the WRT54GS to factory defaults, and now I've got another problem: the router will not allow me to set up encryption. The default setting is "Disabled", and when I click the down arrow and try to make any selection at all (preferred selection is WPA2 Personal), it reverts to Disabled. I've also tried to change the router's IP address to 192.168.2.1 (and alternately to 192.168.1.253), so it won't conflict with the modem's IP, and it freezes up every time I try.
i have been using a WRT54GS LINKSYS ROUTER for 2.5 years problem free until now. All of a sudden i cant connect to the internet through it at all. when i diconnect it and hook my desktop directly to the modem it works but i need the wireless to use my laptop. I have tried everything to get it working again, no dice. when using w7 diag tool it reports back local area connection doesnt have a valid ip config.
I have a WRT54GS v. 7.0 w/ the latest firmware. Im looking for ways to optimize the router for best performance.There are 4-5 iphones/ipads that will connect to it. 3-5 laptopsand one xboxNo wired connections.Im using COX internet on the west coast which provides good internet service. Im not an expert with networks or routers but i follow instructions real well. What can i do to my stock/default router to take 100% advantage of its capabilities?
I would like to upgrade the firmware for my WRT54GS V2.1 router however, I only see versions 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, etc.. There is no 2.1 listed, so does this mean I can use the v2.0 firmware?
Factory default settings of my WRT54GS encryption are Disabled. When I try to enable WPA Personal encryption (>Wireless, Wireless Security), it reverts back to Disabled as soon as I make the selection. >Administration, >Wireless, >Encryption Function is Disabled.When I had this router set up at another location with another ISP, this was never an issue. How do I get the encryption function to be enabled?
I successfully cascaded a WRT54gs V6 router to a LinksKey wired router LAN to LAN. My concern is I get a warning on my one computer saying it is an unsecured connection. I have not seen a way to go in and make any kind of security settings. Most of the files on my main computer which is connected via the wired router are labeled as private files.
I've been having internet connection problems for the last few days and i usually do just unplugging the router and modem and turning it them back on but that hasnt been doing the job this time, its still connecting but it just says no internet access but it will connect when i connect my laptop to the modem. My router is linksys wrt54gs version 6.
Currently I have Verizon DSL and which supplied me with a Westell 7500 modem/wireless router. I am also connecting a Linksys WRT54GS (firmware Version: 7.2.08) to the Westell 7500.
When I connect via cable or wireless to Linksys WRT54GS I am not able to establish VPN connection. I get the error “Error 619: A connection to the remote computer could not be established. So the port used for this connection was closed”.
However, when I connect via cable or wireless to Westell 7500 I am able to connect to VPN.
I tried resetting the Linksys WRT54GS to factory settings and reconfigured but no success to VPN.
At work we have a Windows 2003 setup with VPN Role on it and on my laptop I am using the built in VPN connection within Windows 7.
I need to reinstall my WRT54GS but can't find the original disk. Is there someplace I can d/l the install software? I can find the firmware updates but I think I need more than that to install the router.
