I was on my wireless computer ( XP ) one day and all of the sudden it stopped working, so i went to check the router/modem lights and they were all on, as usual. The host computer ( vista ) also lost connection. I'm able to post on these forums because i just bypassed the router and hooked my modem up directly to this vista PC.I can plug in my router, without cancelling connection.I want to use my wireless computer...
So yesterday i was sitting at my computer, doing nothing and then the internet shuts off. So i go up stairs to check on the router, and all of the normal lights are on, as well as the modem. Neither the host or wireless computer has internet.I'm able to be on the forums because i hooked my modem up to this computer, without the router.Whenever i set the router back up, it has the normal connectivity lights on, but the wireless computer AND host computet dont get connection. How to get my wireless computer back up through this router, without canceling ALL connection.[CODE]
I have a Motorola SGB900 cable modem/router which up until now has done both functions. However i want to upgrade the router and so have purchased a netgear wnr2200. I have tried connecting to the WAN and LAN connections on the new router and disabling NAT and wireless on the old router in all possible configurations but i dont seem to be able to get it to work.
how to connect 2 routers that both have an ADSL connection. When attempting this the Belkin router will lose the ADSL connection after a random amount of time.
The fastest dsl speeds here is 1.5mbpsand I need something around 3mbps+. I'm curious if I could buy two 1.5 connections from my ISP and connect them both into a router and then hook a switch up to it and connect my PCs and everything to it to get 3 or if I would still just get the 1.5?
Is it possible to have two connections from a router to a switch?
Currently we have a wired connection going direct to the the switch however we would like to have a backup wireless connection via two range extenders.
I am trying to find out the availability of a router which will allow multiple connections, each with their own username and password and the ability for an administrator to control access.
I'm planning to build a home network total of 11 computers including a server the other 10 units as client..i have a wireless router with 4 ports & a 8 port switch,i have read it before that i can connect my switch to 1 of the ports of my router and it can use my internet connections. anyways i was wondering if i can still use the other ports of my router as i would like to connect my server directly to the router and not on the switch so that i will be able to connect all the 11 units on my network, and also control it through my server using a client software.
Im having trouble connecting to my router, everything was working fine till two weeks ago, I have a Vonage D-Link router model: VWR-VD and and have 3 computers, 2 desktops and 1 Laptop. one desktop is connected directly to the router and works fine, the laptop is connected wireless and it works fine too. the other desktop has a Realtek 8185 extensive 802.11 bg wireless devise VEN 10EC / DEV 8185. the computer was working fine till 2 weeks ago that I don't know what happened but now I'm able to see other connections but not my connection (my router). on the task bar when I click on the bars for my connection, my connection does not appear.I've tried the following: Reinstall the Driver reset IP I tried to change the homegroup, but I couldent due to the fact that I'm not connected?
It's a linksys wireless router attached to their service provider modem and it can no longer recieve new connections. The pc's connected to it before still run through ti fine but any new laptops using the proper authentication and password are unable to make a connection.First thing I am going to try is a factory reset(they mentioned resetting the router but they may have just rebooted it)
I'm going to setup a wireless router but only run wired ethernet connections at first. whatever the walk through securing those connection are will not be a problem. however what about the wireless signal being broadcast from the antenna. any way to shut it down? is it necessary to secure that? I still need to keep others out of the network and stop others from using the connection.
I am currently using a Linksys WRT54GS router. In my house we have about 15 connections to it with all but 2 of them wireless. Not all of the devices can get on at the same time so I called Linksys and they said our router only supports up to 11 or 12 connections.My question is how do I determine the amount of connections a router can handle at once so that I do not have this problem any more.
I have 881 router and it has 1 WAN port and 4 Fa ports. I want to know if it's possible to have 2 internet connections on that router? I found an interesting article about the load-balancing for two isp connections: [URL].
One of our client has cisco 861 router and they have two internet connections from two different ISPs can we use them together as load balancing and as redundancy, As cisco 861 router has only one WAN port?how we can do that ?
if I have a unprotected wireless router and someone start using my router, will i be able to monitor what they doing using my router internet connection?
Every day or two my landlord's router just seems to disappear altogether . just seems to turn itself off randomly. Unplugging to reset results in good, clear signal for a while, but the problem always comes back. It affects all connected machines (not sure if it makes any difference if a macnine is connected via wire.)
I'm running XP and have Bell-Aliant modem SIEMENS Gigaset SE567 running to DI-624 router. It has been working for years but after the internet was down in the area for most of the day, it has failed to reset. I've done the usual un-plug/wait/replug routine a few times but cannot connect. I can connect directly through the SIEMENS but when I introduce the DI-624 back into the mix, I'm not able to connect to the internet. How do I make it happen. I'm not tech savvy so go slow.
I have a BT Home Hub 3 and quite often get messages "cannot connect to network". I have many (>20) devices connected. Have I reached the limit? With four kids in the house the pressure to connect even more devices is growing.
I have a belkin router that I've been using to share internet connectivity with several devices around my home. It has happily supplied this to an Ethernet connected desktop, Ethernet connected Blu-ray player, and wireless connections to two seperate laptop computers. When I try to add one more Ethernet (wired) connection to the mix, I always run into problems. Although the router has 4 outgoing Ethernet ports, it doesn't like to do more than two. Should I buy a new router? Cables?
I turned on my PC this morning and I found I could not connect to the Internet. I have a few other computers and devices in the house that are ALL connecting to the Internet fine. I've tried basic things like unplugging /re-plugging the Ethernet cable, resetting router, attempting to set up a new network, system restore, running norton anti-virus to detect any potential problems etc all of which haven't resolved the issue.
I also checked my device manager to see if my drivers were up to date and I found that under 'Other Devices' my Network Controller stated that the drivers were not installed. I'm not sure if this is the issue (considering my Internet was working absolutely fine less than 24hrs beforehand) but I can't search the Internet to automatically find the driver for obvious reasons.
I found a few people suggesting to use the hardware id to find the appropriate driver, any direct link to the driver. My network controller hardware id is below:
I'm looking for a wireless router that is compatible with mobile broadband, dsl broadband and cable broadband. It should have a signal range of at least 12 metres.
I am working with vpn setups for the first time. I would like to be able to connect to a computer on a home network through a linksys E2500 router. I have found alot of documentation on connecting to an external vpn from a computer on the lan side of the router, but nothing on connecting from the outside in. The router does have a static ip address with my internet provider, so I can contact the router from the outside. But makeing the connection to the computer on the other side of the router is where I am missing something or I dont realize that it is not possible. On the LAN side I am using DHCP to assign the address to the computer I want to connect to. Perhaps I need to make it have a static address also? I realize that when I configure the connection from the outside that I need to direct the connection to the remote computer in some way, unless vpn connections are fully passed through the router and the connection issue I am having is with the "inside" computer.
I noticed over 100 connections from my wirelessly-connected PC to my router's IP address, destination port 4444. Is this normal, or could it be some kind of misconfiguration? At the moment, there are no connections to port 4444 in my PC's firewall connection list. Why would my PC connect to the router on port 4444?I've scanned my PC for viruses/malware and it's come up clean, so I was wondering if this could be caused by my router? Google doesn't have any answers to this either. My firmware version is 1.34.
I have a WRT54GL that I bought about 2 months ago, and I've had nothing but problems with the wi-fi since I started using it. It works as normal about 90% of the time, but usually 50+ times per day, I won't be able to connect to the router wirelessly (with ANY device, no matter how close I am to the router) for 1 to 2 minutes. The fact that I can't connect to the router with ANY devices during these times leads me to believe that the problem lies with the router itself. Another thing to note is that the wired connection to the router works just fine during these wireless outages.
I've tried changing channels and upgrading the firmware, but nothing has changed. Did I just get a bad router?
I recently upgraded my network because my DIR-655 started to drop connections. My new routers (a Netgear ProSafe VPN Firewall SRXN3205) is working great, but I'd like to re-purpose my D-Link as a wireless bridge.
According to Netgear support, I need to link my DIR-655 to another access point connected to the network over wired Ethernet. No problem there; I have a DAP-1522 connected via Ethernet on the floor directly below the location of the DIR-655. I was under the impression that although the signal was going through the floor, the physical distance to between the two devices would be sufficient to make the connection. No joy. I use the push-to-connect buttons on the two devices, but they do not connect. Is the floor the only issue? I do have an ANT-24 antenna extension for the DIR-655 router -- would that make any difference. As I say, the physical distance between the two devices is less than 10 feet.
We are having 3 internet connections coming in to one of our customer's main offices for redundancy and etc. I would like to replace the 3 routers with a one for easier support and management. One of the connections is an ADSL and the other 2 are leased lines so they terminate with an RJ45 connection.
Would something like a Cisco 2911 + HWIC ADSL card be sufficient enough or would you recommend something else?
We have a ZyXEL (P-2601HN-F1) router and three computers in our house. Currently, we only use cables to connect to the router because we haven't been bothered to setup wireless. However, there's a curious problem where the moment we connect more than 2 devices at a time, the router loses connection to the internet. To be precise, all LEDs are on, except wireless (d'uh) and Internet.
My router isn't allowing any wireless connections. I just woke up and my router was refusing connection to my wife's laptop and both our Nintendo 3DSes. However, my Xbox and my PC are directly connected and work perfectly. The laptop keeps saying my passkey is wrong.
I have been looking for a new router as my current one has packed in. I am mostly interested in a router with a fast and stable wifi and high throughput which can manage a high amount of maximum simultaneous connections. The linksys e4200 seems perfect and very well reviewed.I am currently on adsl, no cable in area, so i would need one to have an adsl modem. Is there a version with a modem? Or will i need to look around for another?
I am mainly interested in throuput and the reviews and comparison sites sugest that linksys seems perfect midway between max simultaneous connections and price. Any comparison website that has adsl routers. The information am looking for on that's between £60 and £160 with high amount of ram, high throuput for Maximum Simultaneous Connections, similar to link text
We have a network, with a MAC filter for the internet acces. Every body can just have one MAC adress entry on their name for internet acces . My idea was to give the MAC adress of another router(that i can control), plug the LAN cable in the WAN of the second router, and then connect more computers to that router. Would that enable Internet acces for all the computers behind the 2 router?would it work if i make one computer with an extra network card, register that computers MAC adress and forward internet by the second network card to a router or other computer?
