Setup Possible For A Wireless Router Such As Linksys Device
Jan 4, 2012
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've got a WAP610N access point and 4 WET610N to connect to it - however, no matter what I do when trying to install the WAP610N the setup tells me it cannot find the device.I've got the WAP610N connected to a homegateway (SAGEM) and my computer connected wired to the HGW. The HGW is setup as a DHCP server, everything beside the WAP610N works. It gets an IP address, and I can login to the web interface of the access point - but is still unable to use the setup and unable to connect any of the WET610N.

My 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!)

I have the wireless-n wrt150n router. I have it wired to my computer and have it wirelessly connected to my ps3. But for some reason there is another unnamed device listed under My Network. My network was not secure before, but I changed it to secure when I noticed the unnamed device. How do I remove that unnamed device from my network?

I am trying to have one of my devices always get the same internal IP address. I have an IP camera that I have setup with port forwarding. I think I found where to set it, but it isn't 100% clear that I have it set correctly. I have a E900 wireless router.
From my router's homepage I went to Setup - Basic Setup --> DHCP Reservation button. Then I found my camera in the top box (Select Clients from DHCP tables) and checked the box next to it and pressed the "Add Clients" button. Now I see my IP camera (along with the IP address I want it assigned to and it's MAC access in the section labeled "Clients Already Reserved".
So, did I go through to the procedure correctly to have my IP camera always get the same IP address?

I have an EA4500 and am using Cisco Connect Cloud software. Its working mostly fine except that I have one device on the network that will not show up in the device list. This is not an issue in itself and normally I would ignore (although it used to show up when I forst got the router) however..
The device is a WDTVLive media unit and required access to windows shares on a media server. Now the WDTVLive device is server an ip address by the router and is available from everywhere on my network but every couple of days it loses the capacity to search windows shares.
I know what you are thinking and I initially thought the same, this is an issue with the WDTVLive box. However one day I spent a few hours trying to resolve (Am an IT Consultant and know a little about networks) and found that I could not fix the issue. I then rebooted the router and it started working. I have since confirmed that every time it breaks I have to reboot the router.

I have full signal strength but I can't connect to the internet from any device. Internet works fine when connected directly to devices. Devices will show an IP address but will not connect to the internet. The first router worked fine for about a year and did the same thing so I replaced it but now after 1 month, this router is doing the same thing!

I recently purchased a Linksys EA4500 Dual-Band N900 Router with Gigabit and USB. Everything set up great with no problems and after a day or 2 I managed to get all home devices connected (2 laptops, 2 printers, an iphone, 1 tv, 1 blu-ray, an old desktop, and a tablet). Everything was connected right and working and I installed the Linksys app on my iPhone which let me see what devices were connected and all that. Well, last night, an unknown device showed up as a connected device. It's labeled as: android_(insert string of characters) and has a MAC address. I've tried and tried to identify what this device is and I can't. Everything else on our network is still showing up independently of that device. I'm worried that someone using our connection and possibly putting our device security at risk. What can I do to A) try to identify what the device is and B) if it is an intruder, block it's access.

I have a couple incredibly annoying problems with my E4200v2. I have one Win7 laptop that connects wirelessly and has been slowed to a CRAWL connected to this new router.3 of the 4 Android powered devices I have experience random and unexplained drops in Internet access. It seems they stay connected to the router itself but they lose Internet. Happens at random times and intervals.

Model E1000
I wrote down the password of my wireless router on installing it. However, each time I want to add a new device to the router, the password that I wrote down does not prompt the router to recognize the new device or equipment. How do I go back into my computer and retrieve the password to my router if I did copy it down wrongly? how to retrieve the password.

Under Devices, I find that my Apple laptop (WIFI connection) and our Dell Desktop (LAN) connection are considered the same device. The operating system the EA3500 shows for this device is the apple IOS system both connections and address numbers appear in this device. This makes it impossible to set up separate parental control settings on each computer. What could I do to get the EA3500 to recognize these as separate devices? I have already tried forcing the WIFI network address of the Apple to another address. All that happened was the device address updated in on the EA3500 device list, but the LAN and WIFI addresses remained together still under the same device name and MAC OS on the device list.
I have the latest firmware loaded on my EA3500. This was not an issue previously when I ran the old firmware. Below is a what I see in the device listing showing the LAN address for the Dell and WIFI address for the Apple all on the same screen. When I turn one device off, the respective entry goes away. Only when both computers are off does the single device entry on the EA3500 reflect being offline.

installed the E1000 router that AT&T provides with U-verse DSL. All works fine except that the device name that appears under "Network Infrastructure" in Windows 7 shows the original default name that Cisco assigned instead of the name I chose. It does not affect operation or performance but looks oddball. I don't see how it can be changed.

I want to know how I can manually limit the Kbps for a particular devince in the QOS.I DO NOT want to simply set the priority (low/med/high). I want to "physically" limit a device.
When I select to do it manually (upstream bandwidth) it limits ALL devices and I do not want this. I want to limit the bandwidth on only one device that is connected (ie an Xbox)
I have a Linksys E4200 V2

I got the new EA6500. For the last few days I've noticed there are multiple devices showing under one device with different IP addresses. In the beginning they show up individually with their own device names, then somehow combine. Each device is different ie. computer, phone, DirecTV box, etc. I did a hard reset, re-flash and still it keeps happening.

I bought a Wireless-N Home Router MODEL WRT120N so that I could use my new Kindle Fire online, since I could never catch an open wi-fi signal in my house. Router IS correctly installed and working fine.....but when I go to use my Kindle, I see it on the list, click on it, enter my password.......and it tells my my password must be incorrect. I KNOW it is correct! I even went and CHANGED the password just in case!
My Kindle keeps giving the message "Unable to connect to the selected Access Point. Please check the password you have provided."

I recently have been reading into QOS and have been fiddling with it on my Linksys WRT54G router. But there are a few things that seem limiting (at least on this version) so I have some questions.I live in a house with three other roommates all sharing the same internet connection. We don't have a bandwidth limit, so I don't care how much they're downloading. When I want to watch Netflix when they're all on the internet however, either my movies will come up in low quality, or will be interrupted.Under the Device Priority I put in my MAC address and set my priority to high. My first question is, what is the priority of a device that is not listed at all? There's only room for two devices so I can't put all three of my roommates in. I would assume their priority would automatically be the lowest.
I wanted to set certain common ports to be at a high priority. So far I just have port 53 for DNS entered with the highest priority, while my computer is set to high. Would this mean any computer making a DNS request would have a higher priority than my computer making a non-DNS query? I would like DNS to be a higher priority than myself streaming video.Finally, are there are ports that streaming video commonly use? I know there are ports for Netflix but I was also thinking of other Flash/HTML5 videos I might come across. Or do they tend to just use port 80?

Is it possible with the E2500 (or some other device) to rebroadcast a wireless signal?Here's the situation, I live on a boat, I want to connect my laptop to a local wireless signal (which I pay for). I then want to connect my E2500 to the laptop via the "Internet" port on the E2500. This doesn't work? This would allow all my wireless devices to stay connected to a single connection point. When I move the boat and change the wireless connection, I only have to do it once for a single connection. Is there some way to achieve this?

I have a E2000 router/access point. I am able to connect 3 laptops, 1 smartphone and 1 printer wirelessly to the access point. All computers and smartphone can access the Internet. The problem is that none of the devices can connect with each other and thus cannot print. I can ping the router, no problem. Get "request timed out" message when trying to ping from one device to the other. Router firmware is 1.04

I updated to Firmware Version: 1.0.04. And now I can't logon to the router when my storage device is turned on. However, I can logon to the router when the device is off. If I turn the power on the storage device and try to navigate the router it says ".....Can't establish a connection to the server at 192.168.1.1." Then I have to reboot the router to be able to log back on.

I've verified that the router and the pc have the same time zone, daylight savings update specification and that they both showed the same time (00:56AM). But a file created on the attached USB device was timestamped 01:56AM (the date was correct).

I'm trying to connect an Epson Stylus Color 740 USB printer to a newly purchased E4200 wireless router. I've upgraded to the latest Cisco Connect software and to version 1.0.0.3 router firmware. I get the message "A non-supported device is connected to your router's USB port. Disconnect that device and follow the steps below to connect a USB printer to your router." Cisco support was not beneficial.

I have the WRT400N router with the latest firmware. Recently I have noticed a device in my DHCP that I do not recognize. It is not device I own (believe me, I have racked my brain and confirmed) as it shows as an Acer pc. I cannot ping the IP address however. I have rebooted my router several times thinking maybe it's a former connected device but saved in memory but it keeps coming back. I am thinking possibly it is someone hi-jacking my Internet, but not sure. I am using WEP security but it shows a LAN connection which is strange for a wireless device. The only hard wired pc is my HP.

I'm trying to limit my kids' access to the internet during the night, since I caught them plugging their laptops and the Xbox into the router's Ethernet ports late at night so they could circumvent the wireless guest access. The problem is, I only have 5 available control slots and the list of devices I browse to choose from is vague at best. Half of the devices listed in parental controls say "Network Device" and the other half say "iPhone" or "iPad". Isn't there an easy way to choose the correct devices to restrict, like by IP or MAC address? And if not, why is this so confusing and difficult? I have a family of 10 in my house and everyone is connecting with their own phn or 3 iPads, 2 laptops, 2 desktop PCs, 1 Xbox and 1 PS3.I tried limiting the DHCP Reservation list, but that seems to only affect the wireless access, not the 4 ethernet port connections.

Since a couple of weeks I have a linksys EA6500. When I go to the device list to see which devices are online the device list is not displayig the correct data. I see devices online that are offline and also devices are offline that are at the moment online. When I try to delete a device that is offline in the list I get error 2315. I have that error in the local and cloud interface. The list has a frozen state from a particular moment.
When I reboot the router then all devices in the list have status offline and the device list stays that way. Nothing gets online anymore or will be added. When I reset the router to factory default all keeps working without problems for approximately 24 hours and after that the problem occurs again. The list freezes again and you are not able to delete a device.
I searched the forums but no one has this problem. I only can find a post that describes my problem but for them a reset worked. In my case a factory reset works also but the problem keeps coming back.
