The network I am currently using only allows one device to be connected at any one time, regardless of whether you use a switch or not. Could I connect a router to the wall socket and then use multiple devices with the router? In theory the router should only appear as one device in every aspect even with several devices using it, correct?
View 5 RepliesWell, I recently purchased a new ipod Touch for my birthday and planned on using Wi-Fi internet for my touch when I'm around the house. My sister had a router that had not before been in much use, the WRT54G Linksys router; so to save money we decided to use that. Well, we plugged in the router on October 7th, (friday) and everything was working -- we had Wifi connection; the WLAN light on the Linksys router was lit up. Now, last night, October 8th, right before going to bed I shut down my computer and I unplugged my computer cable. I did not unplugg the router. This morning, as soon as I turned back on my computer, as soon as it was done booting up I noticed the WLAN button on the router was not lit up. I immediately pulled out my ipod and it said that I was not connected to Wifi. All day I have been unplugging the router/modem, replugging them in, only to find that the WLAN button is still not lighting. The other buttons on the router - 'power', 'internet', and '1' (out of 1, 2, 3, 4) are lit. I have only tried rebooting the modem/router/computer once, which was about ten minutes ago and still nothing worked. Is there any way to get my Wifi back? The router is pretty much brand new, having never really been in use to begin with.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe purchased an EA6500 to take the place of the router function of a Verizon Westell 7500. We bridged the Westell, installed and set up the EA6500 and everything seems fine.
What is strange is that some devices on the network (our server, user PC, a NAS that isn't part of the domain) while accessible if you navigate to them via \ do not appear in the Network window.
This of course is causing issues for some users who don't or won't map network drives.
At first I thought this may be an issue related to us having some of our network devices with static IP addresses so we switched them over to dynamic - no change in the network window.
we will have to return this router and get a different brand/model if it won't work in this fashion.
I have a new E4200 (running FW 1.0.3) and connected a Seagate GoFlex 1TB drive to it. The drive is recognized fine by macs and PCs. However, I find random folders appearing in my mac finder as "alias" and hence innaccessiable. There are a bunch of them scattered in random areas. On Windows those items appar as an unrecongnized incon, a 4KB size and Type file with the "archive" option checked under File "Properties". On a mac they appear as kind "alias" with a 4KB size.I also didn't notice any particular oddities with the directory name (I.e no special chars). I tried renaming them and that didn't fix it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy BEFSR81 is my primary router and has DHCP turned on. The router's DHCP range is set to accommodate 12 devices. I have three computers wired to it and their Host names (as specified in the set-up of each computer) show up in the router's DHCP device table. I also have two printers (one old Brother HL5250DN laser printer and one new HP Photosmart Premier C410a inkjet printer) connected and there are blanks where the Host name should go. I would like to be able to tell which printer is which when I am looking at the DHCP device table. How can I get a names associated with each printer's IP address in the router's DHCP device table? (The real problem is that the router seems to have both printers at the same IP address (192.168.1.100) and if I can get one of them to change I'd like to know which one it was!)

View 5 Replies View Relatedwe have the WLC and 2 x Aironet AP's that is powers over PoE. The other day is was reloaded and since then the AP points are Blinking Red, according the the Aironet manaul this means some sort of boot error? They are also not appearing on the WLC from the GUI or CLI running a show ap summary. Interesting though I can see them via CDP, however they are not picking up IP's as they are listed as 0.0.0.0. After checking with colleagues I was told these were set statically.
Is it possible that the points not having IP addresses is a sign of a corrupt boot environent? I would have though they would not have appeared in CDP if they were corrupt?
I did not set this up in the first place so a little puzzled at the moment? Nothing has changed on the config bar using a different NTP server on the network?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI was browsing through a blog website (tumblr), and I noticed that several images looked VERY distorted and bizarre.[URL] This started continuing as a scrolled through my dashboard, and even .gifs were affected, also becoming very distorted like flashing white and having broken parts to it. At first I thought it was a problem with just the website, but after asking other people who said they were fine and browsing through other sites, I noticed that the problem wasn't just that. It even looks like it's affecting your website's banner. [URL] The browsers I tried this with are Google Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer, all of them having the same problem. Also on several websites like tumblr, youtube, yahoo, etc. I even get times where it looks like I see bits or large chunks of html on the page, as if those are broken too. Now, the strange part is all of my images that I have saved to my hard drive and all of my gifs, etc. are working completely fine, and I can view them with no problem. Images on the internet, however, are very distorted. This is also happening to several images, not every single one of them. Then I thought that my laptop could be infected with a virus, but I performed multiple virus scans (Windows Defender which I know isn't that good, a Norton antivirus scan, and an Avast scan.) All scans said my computer was completely clean and free of threats. I had also gone through my computer's display settings and all of that just to see, even though I had never touched those. Everything looked to be fine from what I saw. And now starting yesterday, the problem has mysteriously spread to my iPod touch (2nd gen but it still works fine), with images that I view online also having the same distortion problems.
I was only able to rule things out to the internet connection now. Now, what's odd is I was at first trying this on my iPod, but I went and connected to the wireless network of a neighbor, and images on the iPod actually looked restored. Then after trying it on my laptop and going on my browsers, the images were strangely distorted again... I then went and cleared the cache and cookies (not including the history), and that actually managed to do SOMETHING. The images that were distorted on my browser were restored, but then OTHER images and .gifs became distorted. (Also as a side question, is it the end of the world for me if I erase my cache on cookies while on a website? I heard from people that you shouldn't delete your cache if you're on a website, but I didn't know about that at first... Of course, I don't think it made things worse, since the problem was still present before I deleted it.) Clearing the cache on my ipod's internet also seemed to have the same effect as with my laptop and its browsers... Also clearing the cache several times only went only caused the same thing, with some of the restored images from before going back to being distorted.
I'm having an issue with a Cisco 2811 ISR Router. Sh ver command output lists the correct ios that the router used for booting and it says that the ios is stored in flash but when i give "sh flash" command it doesn't display the ios file. Maybe the flash is corrupted or damaged in some way? In the attached file is the output from the "sh ver" and "sh flash" commands.
View 6 Replies View RelatedWe run a network of several 2960G and 3650G switches in a network with a number of VLANs. One one particular VLAN (let's call it VLAN 10) it appears that non-broadcast traffic (i.e. normal unicast traffic) is being copied to every port in VLAN 10 only on one switch . The traffic is not crossing trunk ports and does not appear on other switches that have ports in VLAN 10. We first spotted this by noticing that a UPS port had an unusual amount of activity on our port througput graphs:
This traffic at 4 am is not expected and this profile is repeated across all ports in VLAN 10 on this switch (a WS-C2960S-48TD-L stack running IOS 15.0(1)SE3)\iffed one port using local SPAN (the UPS port) and discovered that this traffic was not broadcast, which was running at a normal low rate at all times. The traffic appeared to be unicast traffic from other ports of the sort you might see on a hub. It was from various hosts that live on VLAN 10, most (not all) of the conversations had one end station homed on the 'problem' switch. There are about 800 non-broadcast packets per hour and this is a busy VLAN so it does not account for all the traffic on the VLAN.

But when we try to launch acquisition, the UT utility complains with this error message:"Failed to start acquisition: Device unreachable. Please enter a valid device."When we wanted to add ports via Device Trap Configuration, LMS has fired a different error message: "There are no ports to configure for the selected device(s).Check whether you have selected any router(s)." I have checked the portsData.xml file, which doesn't have any ports included for the two devices: [code] We have tried to exclude / include the switches in the data collection, but that didn't work.

I get internet through my Desktop using a wifi card that picks up the internet from my in-laws across the street (gets a really good signal btw). Anyway, that connection is perfectly fine, and up until recently I had been using a Hawking Range Extender to repeat the signal through my house connecting it to my PC's ethernet port and using the Internet Connection Sharing feature. For some reason that is beyond me it suddenly stopped working. Or rather, it will work for a couple minutes and then stop receiving packets.I'm thinking the device is faulty since it never actually worked that great to begin with. Is this type of setup possible for a wireless Router such as a lynksys device? Or would I need a repeater/range extender like I have been using?Again I would use the Wifi from my PC to share the connection with the Router to broadcast that signal through my house.

I have a video conferencing device that uses a lot of ports and is very bandwidth intensive. I have been messing around with two routers (cheap ISP Thomson and my Netgear DGND3300v2) settings for a couple of months now and I couldn't get it to work properly (ports were getting blocked randomly). I have recently discovered that Netgear has a "secret" page where you can switch the router to a modem mode. I gave the device a public IP and now it works fine (at least so it seems for now). The thing is, I need to connect another device (my PC) to the device via web interface for monitoring purposes. I am wondering what network arrangement would be best for me. I want the video device to have nothing to do with natting or firewalls at all, I want it to have a public IP. However, I also want to be able to connect to it somehow and also share the connection with my PC.
