Linksys Router WRT54G Isn't Connecting To The DNS Server?

Nov 16, 2011

I have a linksys router WRT54G connected to a modem supplied to me by Time Warner Cable. Just last night, for some reason my internet stopped working. After calling Time Warner Cable internet support, I found out that the modem is working. If I connect my laptop (Dell model which is running on Windows 7) directly via cable to the modem, I can connect to the internet. BUT if i connect my modem to the router, and then connect my laptop via cable or wireless to the router, I can't connect to the internet. When I open up my network window on the computer, I see that my laptop is connected to the router and the router is connected to the internet but I can't connect to the internet. I tried calling linksys customer service and my insurance ran out so yea ... On the laptop, i ran a troubleshooting program and it gave me an error stating that it failed to connect to the DNS server and I should contact the internet provider. Time Warner Cable told me that if connected to the modem directly, I could access the internet indicating that there's an error in the router.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G Connecting Two Different Ip Networks?

Jun 6, 2012

We are running our internal network on the 192.168.1.x range.
 
We have just installed a new control system which is running on a closed 192.168.0.x network (no internet access).
 
What we need to do is use the WRT54G to connect the 2 networks together so that we can VNC into one of the computers on the control system network so that it can be managed.
 
I have tried connecting the two networks by plugging the 192.168.0.x network into the WAN/Internet Port on the WRT54G, and setting the "Internet Connection Type" to "Static IP" and setting the "Internet IP  Address :" as 192.168.1.200 (the main PC I need to VNC into) but cannot ping any of the other computers..

Linksys Wireless Router :: Wrt54g Not Connecting To Computer

May 8, 2012

It constantly disconnecting and wouldn't stay connected for a long period of time, so I tried messing with the settings and it no longer connects to the internet. It tells me that the settings for this router is not compatible for the computer settings. I have reset the router to its factory settings, restarted the computer, restarted the router but nothing changed. I have tried plugging my computer to the router via ethernet cord and typing in 192.168.1.1 in the address field of Internet explorer and nothing comes up. I also forgot the password to the router!

Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G Router Not Connecting To Internet Via Wire?

May 1, 2011

I wired it all up correctly, and Continue to get "error 322: check router" upon every attempted install. I did some research and tried releasing and renewing IP amongst restarting all networking devices AND PC's. Peculiar enough, I could connect AND get online wirelessly from a netbook, but neither of my 2 PC's could connect via a wire. I got a defective router, is it possible the ports are malfunctioning? because the lights are on, but 3 or all of the 4 lights are continually on when only 2 ports are plugged in

It is a wired, not wireless connection. The light isn't even coming on for the port it's plugged into. I tried a different cord, a different port, upgrading the firmware, and restarting each device. Nothing has worked so far.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Connecting Epson Workforce 615 To WRT54G

Feb 16, 2010

I can't get my Epson Workforce 615 (610 series) All in One Printer to connect to my WRT54G router. I was on the phone with Epson for over an hour and renetered my SSID and security code 4 times. They said it was something about the router not letting it connect. The printer sees the SSID and I put my laptop in the same location as the printer and it has very good signal strength. I even took the printer back and got another one. The router does not have MAC filtering enabled.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Connecting Pool Controller To WRT54G?

Sep 30, 2012

I am trying to connect a Zodiac iAqualink wireless pool equipment controller to my home network (WRT54G) without success. This is a 802.11b device. My router is set to mixed mode. What I have tried:

1. Set it up as suggested in the instructions: WEP2 security, double checked SSID and password
2. Set it up without wireless security
3. Changed channels
4. Set mode to 802.11b
 
In all cases the LED on the iAqualink that is supposed to indicate that it is connected to the network illuminates properly, but I can never find the device using EasyLink Advisor.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Can't See Anything On Server After Connecting

Aug 23, 2011

I've been messing around with this for several weeks to no avail.  I've never had a problem establishing a VPN connection within my LAN.  I've tried several workarounds, learning things in the processs, but to no avail.I've set up a VPN connection with Windows 7.  The RRAS server is at home and I'm attempting to access from school (or the internet anywhere).I have no problem establishing the VPN connection (that I can see).  Port 1723 is forwarded for both UDP and TCP to a static LAN address (198.162.1.124) in the E4200.  PPTP pass-through is enabled (as well as the other two options).I can't see anything on the server after connecting.  I'm using a DDNS.  It works just fine INSIDE the LAN; I've even mapped a network drive to "S:".  Accessing ANYTHING outside of the LAN over a VPN, however, isn't working.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G Connecting To Wireless Network?

Jul 30, 2009

I've been having a ton of problems with fixing my connection with my wireless network.  A few months ago, I lost connection on my desktop computer and I reconnected... however, it didn't actually connect.  When I hovered my cursor over the Wireless Network Connection icon, it just said "Acquiring Network Address" and never connected.  I got onto my laptop and did a quick search on the problem.  A few wrong moves later, and I couldn't even find my wireless network.
 
Despite all of my attempts at creating a connection, I still have no internet.  I've even tried plugging my computer into my WRT54G router via cable, and still no connection.  It's not the router that's the problem, though, as my two other computers and xbox have perfect internet connection. 
 
I use Windows XP, I use a WRT54G router, I have Mediacom high speed internet, and that's about all I know.

Cisco Routers :: Connecting WAN Port To Linksys WRT54g Dd-wrt?

Jan 20, 2012

I am currently accessing the internet on my home lan with a Linksys wrt54g dd-wrt in bridged client mode (small town wifi to T1 network) with a static IP, but plan to add an additional WildBlue 12mbps satellite connection. What I’d like to do is load share between the two connections with a  RV042 dual wan router…. The satellite modem connection to one of the WAN ports and configuring the RV042 as my DHCP server is not a problem, but how I should configure my wrt54g to the dual wan router for load sharing?I suspect a IT professional might understand this intuitively, but I am unsure how to pass through my public address from the Linksys to the RV042 WAN port.

Linksys WRT54G V.3 - Cannot Communicate With Primary DNS Server

Mar 13, 2011

Cable operator went down 5 days ago and we haven't been able to get internet through the router since. We got a replacement modem from the cable operator three days ago, but I haven't been able to get it working with the router.

Router - Linksys WRT54G v.3, Cable modem Cisco 2100 Cable Modem (Scientific Atlantic DPC 2100)

The modem works when directly connected to a computer, however, once connected to a computer, we cannot plug it into another computer without turning the modem off and on again (I don't remember ever having to do that). Also, the modem is supposed to be able to run ethernet on one computer and USB on another computer. We can get both initially, but as soon as you use one, the will not work. Below is an ipconfig/all

WRT54G / Connecting Router To A Wireless Hotspot

Jun 14, 2013

im moving into an apartment that provides internet via a wireless hotspot (is PW protected and has WPA2 protection). I would like to be able to connect a router to it and then wire my printer, Media server and Roku device to my router.im guessing I will have to somehow bridge my router to the wireless hotspot. I would like the ability to then broadcast my own wireless network from my router, and have my mobile devices connect only to my router, which is in turn connected to the internet via the hotspot.can use the mfg firmware or be open source firmware, doesnt matter to me.I currently have a Netgear WNDR3700 and a spare WRT54G with DDWRT.

Linksys Cable / DSL :: Media Server WAG320N - Connecting 3 PCs / 2 Xbox 360s?

Jan 8, 2010

I have recently purchased a WAG320N. It is working perfectly, connecting 3 PC's, 2 Xbox 360's and a laptop to the  internet and each other.

However as all media files are stored on one PC I was thinking about getting a external USB drive and connecting this to the router and use that as the media server, this would save a PC having to be on all the time. 
 
I use one of the xboxes as a media player as well, streaming movies and music.  Will the 360 pick up the media server and be able to stream from there?I can not find anything on the internet as well about the possibilities for this.

Connecting Server And Workstation To A Wireless Router?

I have a server that was previously connected to a router and a workstation was connected to the router as well. It was all previously connected to the Internet via cables. How can I connect wirelessly? I am assuming I need a adapter to connect to the Internet. Do I connect the adapter to the server or is there an adapter that connects to the router?

Connecting WRT54G And WRT54GS Together And Using GS For Wireless?

Jan 17, 2011

In the house I am using a WRT54G as the main router connected to the ISP. I have run a Cat5E wire from the house to the shop 110 feet away and connected a WRT54GS to the Cat5E (a LAN Port). I turned off DHCP and assigned it a static IP from the House WRT54G. Local wired connections work great, problem is it will not offer up a wireless IP address to wireless clients.I wired up a cross over cable and actually plugged it into the WAN port, it actually picked up and offered wirelessly the House IP address range, however, could not get to the internet. Why I can't wire to WRT54G and a GS together and expect a wireless connection at the shop site?

WRT54G - Connecting Two Wireless Routers Via Powerline Network

Feb 3, 2012

my goal is to share my cable modem signal over my two story house using two wireless routers. The delima is that the routers don't support wireless bridging and if they did, the signal is too weak to make it worth while.

The remedy I came up with... buy a pair of powerline network adapters and connect one router to the other so I could have a good signal upstairs and then a good signal downstairs.

Downstairs, I have the cable modem connected to the Linksys WRT54G router, which has a line out to my blu ray player, wirelessly feeds a PC downstairs and then has a cable run to the powerline adapter.

Upstairs, I have a cat5 connecting the powerline adapter (which was tested and works with laptop) to the data input port on my second wireless router, the netgear wndr3400.

I can't get the netgear upstairs to pull an IP address from the linksys router downstairs over the powerline network.

Linksys WRT54G / Use SMCD3GN As A Router?

Jun 1, 2012

I have an SMCD3GN which I put into bridge mode a while ago and used it as a modem alongside my Linksys WRT54G router. But the SMC is capable of Wireless N, while the Linksys is only capable of wireless G.So I want to turn my SMC into a router + modem again, but I can't figure out how to do it. I tried resetting to factory defaults by holding the reset button at the back of the unit for 30 seconds but it didn't work.I can get it to work with a wired connection, but when I type ipconfig /all into CMD, it doesn't show any default gateway, so I can't access the router online. I've tried various different IPs like 192.168.1.1, 192.168.0.1, etc., but none of them work.

Replace Linksys WRT54G Router

Nov 15, 2012

I had an issue yesterday with no internet access on my desktop computer; the message said "Network cable unplugged" so I called AT&T tech support for assistance. I have 2 Dell computers; a desktop and a laptop which I use wirelessly in the house.After doing several things from disconnecting the router to try and determine if the problem was with my router or an ethernet cable AT&T determined a port on my router which is 6 years old could be going bad and recommended I replace my router.I contacted Linksys yesterday; spoke to tech support for my WRT54G router and was given 2 model recommendations. One was a Model E900 N300 and a more expensive model; an EA2700 N600. There is a price difference of $40.00 USD between the 2 models. I could probably get by with the E900 N300 for $49.99 but the guy at Linksys was putting the pressure on me to buy the more expensive one for $89.99. I told him I'd have to think about it.

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
