I have a wireless router namely D-LINK 524. i know its a prtty old router..but its never let me down ever before..but thn today i decided to play a couple of games online using the psp/ps3 and well both the devices couldnt read the access point..
Then i go onto my pc and the internet on the pc dont work either :'( so then i reboot the modem nd wifi router..but to no avail.So i unplug da routerand connect da modem directly to the pc and it worked..so i was quite stunned..nd i miss playing online..
So to trim it down the problem basically is my phone/ps3/psp cannot find my access point AND my pc doesnt work when connected through the wireless router.
Wireless networking and access point. I setup a wireless network at a hotel with a net gear router n, three access points, and three repeaters. For some reason; one the access point keep losing the default gateway address. Or it could be all three access point could be losing the default address. I turn off the router and pull the power from all the access point. Then turn the router on and plug the power back into the access point. The default address is back and network working great. I try to find out why the default address keeps missing from the access point. The router is new.
I have just moved into a new apartment that has a free wifi connection the problem is that my apartment is in the basement at the completly opposite side of the office and i cant get a strong enough signal to connect to the internet and im not very good with computers. the first time i tride setting up the repeater i was able to connect everything and get online but it had changed the ssid and when i tride to change it bacck to its origanil name i lost my internet connection and have not been able to get access the internet again.

I've been following those instructions to set a dir-615 as a wifi access point connected to a switch : [URL]. I am now able to connect to the 615 either by wifi or by typing it's ip address with another computer connected to the LAN. Connecting to the 615 by wifi, i can do a ping request to urls or receive and send mail with my e-mail client but i can't access websites using my browser.s it possible to get it working without installing some kind of modified firmware? I tried plugging the Internet ethernet cable in the LAN and Internet ports of the 615, none works.
I have have my Dir-655 set up as an access point for awhile and would like to change the wireless access code. I can't seem to figure out how to access the setup menu while it is an access point to do this. How I access the router when it is set up as an access point?
Im trying to use my DIR 655 as an access point from my new router, which is a TP-Link TL-R860. I've read about every post and blog I can find about this and still cant get it to work. Currently I have a cable running from the TP main router to LAN port 1 on the 655. I then plugged my computer in to LAN port 2 to configure the router.
I changed the router IP of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.2, and disabled the DHCP. But I cannot access the DIR655 at the above new address by a browser. Note that the existing router's IP is 192.168.1.1 which the DIR655 is going to be cascaded with.
I am using ACS 5.3 with the internal Database for user authentication, I would like to attribute to some users read only rights on the systems. by not configuring an enable password for these users?
Currently have a sbs2003 with 2 nics want to install a wireless access point for the internal network. the wireless router is on the external wan how do i link the access point to this?
I want to set D-Link DIR 655 as Access Point. For your information , I'm using D-Link 2750U (modem + router) as primary wireless router. how do I set D-Link DIR 655 as Access Point ?
I like the ease and price of the 655 as well as the range and speed. I was wondering if you can use them as a bridge to connect another building or just add a second as an access point? It does not seem straightforward from the control panel.
I've moved into a new apartment with a couple of people who already have wifi set up. They are adament about me not running a ethernet cable across the apartment to my room for my xbox 360. I have a DIR-601 from my last apartment, and I am wondering if there is a way to set up the router as an access point that allows me to connect to the existing wifi network and then wire my xbox 360 in.
I just moved into a new appartment and my buddy next door and I are sharing a connexion using a 2wire router (comes with the internet connexion by the company, with their own firmware).
Now, since the 2wire router signal doesn't perform well, I set up my DIR-655 as an Access point.
Now I would like to know what are the optimal settings for a better signal, and also speed. I rather have stability by wifi g/n mixed (maybe will go n only soon).
Some extra questions;
- Should I deactivate the firewall on my DIR655 to gain speed? I imagine it isn't really usefull since there is already another main router.
- Should I check or uncheck "Short GI", "WMM Enable" and "Extra Wireless Protection"?
- Should I activate or deactivate QoS engine and WISH since it is an acess point to gain speed?
- The firmware on the DIR655 is actualy 1.21, is their a newer and stable firmware I should upgrade to?
I have a D-Link DIR-655 with an usb dongle DWA-140. I used to work with a Sitecom WL-341 router.I want to use the Sitecom WL-341 as an acces point to improve my wireless range at the top floors of my house.
What I want to create:
- The modem connects to the D-Link router;
- The D-Link router makes a wireless connection with the Sitecom router;
- The Sitecom router is now an acces point;
- I connect the Sitecom router with a cable or wireless to my desktop PC.
I don't want a cable in my house that connects the D-Link with the Sitecom. If I do this, not only will people get hurt getting up the stairs because of the cable lying there, it also isn't a pretty sight...
I want to use my DIR-615 as an access point. But i dont find the button "activate as access point". This button is shown in this Dlink DIR-300 manual url....Is this for spezial hardware only?
So, in an attempt to improve my signal in my house I relocated my router upstairs from downstairs by running a long cable to the modem downstairs, since I have read that the signal travels more efficiently down than up apparently. That has not been the case. Now, I have two routers. A D-link DIR-655 and a Netgear router provided by Comcast which is a WNR-1000v2.
possible to set one of these routers up as a wireless access point? Have a router upstairs be the access point, and have a router downstairs connected to the modem. This sounds like this may be a solution but let me know if I'm completely wrong. In my mind, what I'm after is more of a range extender or a repeater but at this point I don't know the difference anymore. It's been quite stressful dealing with my old man for the past week because he can't use his iPad.
We are using ACS ver 4.2 and trying to setup users with limited access to our switchs and routers. Here is what we did:
1) Created a user in ACS
2) Create Shell command Autorization Set - ReadOnly Unmatched Commands - Deny Commands Added show exit
* this should limit the user to the show and exit command only (correct)?
3) Created a group - HelpDesk with the following TACACS+ Settings
Shell (exec) is checked Priviledge level is check with 15 as the assigned level Assign a Shell Command Authorization Set for any network device - selected ReadOnly - shell command autorization set seleted
When the user logs on to the router/switch it appears that he has full access. He can enter the enable command, config terminal command, etc. All we want him to be able to do is to issue the show command.
How would I bridge a wireless connection with a distance of 400 feet? Would twoAP1262N-A-K9 be able to make this happen? Or is there another wireless bridge that you all can think of?I would be connecting one AP1262 of off a 3750g switch and at the far end (400 ft aproximately) another AP1262N-A-K9.
I have set up an access point as per the instructions I found on this site. It works perfectly, holds a wireless signal fine. Now, I have the challenge of trying to remote connect to the home computer that is connected to this access point. I have absolutely no clue as to what changes in settings have to be made.
I have a DIR 655 which I am trying to use as a pure access point for a network based on a Comcast SMC Modem/Router On the DIR 655 I have the DHCP turned off and on the Internet Connection I have given the DIR 655 a static address of 10.1.10.2 with Gateway and Primary DNs 10.1.10.1 (The SMC is 10.1.10.1) I have the DIR 655 connect to the SMC Lan to Lan. DIR 655 is G only to deal with and IPAD issue....
The wireless devices get an internet connection BUT... I can only contact the DIR 655 wirelessly the SMC does not show the DIR 655 as connected I can not ping the DIR-655 from the SMC. I can " see" the static addresses I have given to two network cameras but they don't not respond to Port Forwarding I have assigned at the SMC (that is more for info as I realize that might be a SMC issue) . How to make the DLIK visable to the wired network.
I have a DLG-4500 router as my primary router and want to connect a second router (DIR-655) to it as an extention of the LAN to the second floor of my home. I have found instructions on doing this with most other routers, but not DLINK. In fact when doing the initial configuration and trying to disable the WAN link on the second router by using a bogus IP address string (127.0.0.1) The router won't let me save the change? What are the steps for configuring a secondary router cascaded to the primary (both wireless) to extend network coverage.
A friend of mine has a network with the following setup: D-Link DSL-2500U for ADSL, connected straight into a Telkom DG834GUv5 (locally rebadged Netgear) which has 2 PCs connected via cable, and 2 laptops via Wireless. A cable runs from the Telkom into a standard IPLink switch, which merely extends a cable into a D-Link DIR-615 running DD-WRT that has 2 computers connected, and shares wireless to a couple laptops.
At the moment the network is somewhat unstable, and recently the Telkom router has been giving serious problems, even after resetting to default. I want to try make the network a bit simpler and more stable. Firstly, I want to remove the IPLink switch, which merely extends the cable. Is an Ethernet Coupler what I need? Both cables are definitely under 100m combined (probably under 50m).
Now the big thing is a replacement for the Telkom (rebadged NetGear). Should I get another D-Link DIR-615 or is there a better solution? Their budget is between $40 and $60 US. Is it best to stick to the same brand, considering both devices are D-Link at present?
I recently picked up a 655 with hardware version A2 and flashed to the latest firmware. I have a HotBrick router. I only want to use the 655 as an access point AND especially to use the Guest Access or Guest Zone feature to allow visitors to bring their laptops and not virus up my network. My home network is open among a few computers for things like SageTV, file serving, etc.I can get the 655 to function just fine as a standard access point by following the instructions to turn off UPNP, DHCP, etc. as outlined in the manual. I then enable the Guest Access/Zone feature, and of course give it a different SSID name, make sure it's on 24 hours a day, that it is enabled, etc.
But, none of my computers can access the internet via the Guest Account feature, just the regular wireless portion. They show connecting to the Guest Account name, etc. but no internet. I've disabled every security feature I know of to test this. Again, the "regular" WAP tests great, but no Guest Account, which is really important and one of the main reasons I bought the unit.I'm wondering - does the Guest Account feature only work if the 655 is the main router, has DHCP enabled, etc.? Does it have to be the one and only router? If so, I'm in trouble, because I can't really give up my HotBrick due to failover features, etc.
I have connected my DIR-825 to my cable modem through the network ports and completed the configuration. Everything works fine, I am able to connect through wireless to the DIR-825 and access the internet. I had to do this as my cable modem is also wireless and does not allow another router to be connected through the internet connection, but I want to get a better signal stength than the cable modem.When I am not wireless connected, I can see the two bands at full strength in the view available wireless networks screen. As soon as I connect to either the 2.4 channel or the 5 channel, the signal strenth of the channel I'm connected to drops to horrible, while the non-connected one still shows at full strength.i tried disabling one of the channels, but as soon as I connect to the other, that channels signal strength still drops to horrible.
I have a Windows Home Server 2011 box sitting at home in Washington DC. I have about 1TB worth of stuff on that box. For many reasons, I want to store all my data in a centralized location (that being my WHS box). I then want to access that data through my laptop in London as if the data was in a folder on my computer. I also want to access the data through my mobile phone (android).I just set up filezilla on my WHS box and it works fine if I want to download or upload data. But it won't let me open word files 'off' the server, make changes, and then save it right back. I have to download the word file, make changes, and then reupload that file to the server.
How do I connect and configure my WAP54G wireless access point to my new Cable Modem? I have it connected to the modem but I cannot access it to configure it. It appears to be working but before I got the cable modem I had it connected to a router and it was set-up with a static IP address. With my new ISP, I no longer have a static IP address so I am trying to configure the WAP54G to use DHCP. Trying to access it thru the internet at 192.168.1.245 does not work.
I just bought an LG Bluray DVD player (BD390) which is unable to find the access point in my home network.My router is a WRT54G, ver. 2.2, running firmware: Ver.4.21.1. My home network uses high speed cable with two computers on the wireless network, all working with no problems.The router is on the second floor but the two computers and the new BD390 are on the first floor - about 35 feet away. I have the wirelss security set to none and use only the specific computer MAC addresses to allow connection to this network.
I found directions in the forum for a setup using the LG BD390 but with a different Linksys router. I changed the security to WPA (AES); the Beacon interval from 100 to 75; the Fragmentation Threshold from 2346 to 2304; and the RTS Threshold from 2347 to 2307. The DVD wireless connection still failed to find my network. There is a "Push button" connection feature on the BD390 setup which I tried, but the only "button" on the router I could find was in the basic wireless setting, a green icon for the wireless SSID setup. No connection was made there either.
The recommendation connection from the LG manual is for a network cable, but that would be over 50 feet and a real pain to connect, so I would prefer WiFi.
setting up wifi network in my office. my complete set up right now. the main problem is how to setup my access points . Okay so here it is.
I have 3 - 4 PCS in my office out of which My machine is the main machine and everything is setup on this. so for networking what i have done is i am using a TP link router model TL-WR941D. i had got it configured from an engineer. A cable from my internet modem goes into the blue port of this router(WAN) and my PCs are connected via the LAN port of the router . so everything is working fine right now the local network and internet on all PCS and my laptop also connects through the wifi and is able to access other pcs and also the internet.
To have better signal strength on other floors of the building my engineer had installed 2 access points. They are TP link model Tl-WA901ND. yesterday i updated the firmware of my main router and the settings were some how lost but i managed to set it back to working state using the quick setup utility. so my router and wifi is working fine. But now my access points have stopped sworking . i mean i am not able to get better signal strengths thorugh them. i am assuming theirs ettings /ip etc are lost. now i have no idea how to setup these access points to be used again as part of my wifi network. I looked on the internet but nowhere the thing has been explained in detail. how can i configure my access points/repeaters agaain? i am stuck and engineer is not available for nest few days and my officee internet is suffering.
I wish to turn my TP-Link wireless router into an access point but can't figure out how to do it. I have tried several times but without any success. Below are my information about my main router and the router I want to turn into an access point:
1- Main Router: TP-LINK 3G/4G Wireless N Router 300Mbps - Model No. TL-MR3420. url..
2- Router I wish to turn into an access point:TP-LINK Wireless N Router 150Mbps - Model No. TL-WR740N. url...
My apartment already has internet provided to all of the rooms, but I'm trying to set up my router as a wireless access point. I tried disabling DHCP on the router, but then I wasn't able to get any internet access at all. Does this device not support bridge mode?
