First time on this forum: I have a client running a Windows 2008 server, Windows 7 OS. We set the default printer as the server file cabinet printer, however, between logging off in the evening and back on in the morning the default printer switches to his local printer
I had something strange happen to my WRVS440N router yesterday. Our network had crashed for some reason. So I attempted to log into the device to see what was wrong and I was surprised to discover that all of the settings including user name and password had reverted back to factory default.
1. What are all of the possible scenarios that would cause this to happen?
2.Would disconnecting power in the middle of a boot up sequence cause the router to revert to factory settings?
Is there a "best" channel to use for the router -- e.g. the one that would provide maximum range? I live in a fairly large home and the connection deteriorates in some rooms (not lost altogether, but weaker). Also, what is "channel width"? It's set to 20MHZ, but there is also a setting for Automatic 20/40MHZ. What's the adv advantage of one setting over the other?
Client who owns a school (small pre-school) has 3 desktops that she uses in the office and wants to be able to print to 3 different printers. So each desktop has the ability to print to each of the 3 printers. Her reason for 3 different printers are if one is out of ink I can print to another, or if one just isnt working I can print to another. Would I use a USB switch(assuming they connect via USB)
I open the IE, it takes about 3 minutes to open up.Its says at the bottom left corner "detecting proxy settings". I went to Tools>Internet Options>Connections Tab>LAN settings> and unchecked Automatically detect settings, but still did not work.
-core switch cisco 6509 vtp server -access switches 2960 vtp server -no vtp domain set on any switches -no vtp password set
untill now i manually set the vlans on switches (didnt see anything automatic created on switches)is there any danger with the above settings , that a switch with domain name set and higher revision numberwill delete my vlan settings? if yes how can i protect/disable vtp in my LAN
I am having trouble with my network, specifically printer and file sharing. I have 3 computers, (2 wired, 1 wireless) The network hasn't worked for quite a while. I just hooked up a new (wired) computer and it won't work on the network either. With the wireless computer, if I click on "view workgroup computers" I can see all the computers but cannot access them. With the 2 wired computers, I always get the message, "MSHOME is not accessible," etc. Funny thing is, the network used to work. I don't know what happened to it. I just formatted this new wired computer and loaded XP on it, used the network setup wizard, but keep getting the "not accessible" message. However, last month, I was working on my mom's computer and I put it on my network (hardwired). I had just formatted it and put XP on it and with that computer, I was able to access the laptop computer through the network.I have tried several times to create a new network by using the network setup wizard but it keeps saying that MSHOME is unavailable.I am using XP service pack 3 on all computers, Zone Alarm on 2 of the computers (the router and the new computer), and Windows Firewall on the other wired computer. I can access the Internet with all 3 computers.
One of our costomers has a SRW224G4 Switch - which has not any documentation :-(
I do not get onto the switch in any way. I do not have an IP-Address, the default settings for he serial port do not work ... So I cannot reach the device and reset the password like described in: [URL]
Is there any other way to reset the device? I cannot find any reset button.
I am curious as what the packet size should be set . is the bigger size == lower speed smaller == faster or just leave automatic setting for packet size?
I have a customer that is seeing output drops on a 2960S with mls qos not enabled. It appears that they are getting bursts traffic on the switch that is filling up the buffers, hence causing the drops. I have a couple of questions:
1. What are the default queue/buffer settings when mls qos is NOT enabled on the switch. 2. Is there any good documentation out there regarding the buffer sizes of the different switch models
The customer is looking for an answer as to whether or not replacing the 2960S with a higher model would eliminate the output drops WITHOUT having to mess with QOS/buffer/drop threshold settings on the switch, and Cisco doesn't seem to make the buffer sizes readily available for the the smaller Catalyst switches.
I'm in the middle of restoring a Windows XP computer after a drive failure, and on the new system, the Turn On File and Printer Sharing setting has been forcing a reboot and always resets itself to Off after the restart.
I have 2 internet connections in my office one via Verizon Fios and another one via the local cable company. On the fios connection I have an RV042 VPN router and on the Cable company connection I have an rvs4000 router, I would like to know if there is a way I can connect the 2 so I can share a printer I have on one of the 2 networks from the other network without using the VPN feature, like via an ethernet cable connected between the 2 and some kind of static route maybe?
I have a home network running all Mac computers (though can run Windows VM if necessary) and a pair of USB printers. The wireless router and cable modem are in one room, but the printers are in another. I'd like to find the most practical way to add the printers to the local wireless network without sharing them from a computer. I've tried that for a while, but don't want to leave a laptop connected 24/7 just to enable wireless printing (rather defeats the purpose of a portable computer). I don't have any wired network lines in the home, and am not excited by the idea of running any cables.
What would cause my Dir-825 to magically revert to it's default settings? This is the 4th time this has happened.We rely on a Verizon Network Extender for phone service. It requires an internet connection to function. When the router brain-farts, we don't have phone service... and we don't know it until we try to call out, or try to use the internet. We went to bed last night with the router working and woke up to it not working. It's just my wife and I here. I haven't seen the dog showing any interest in jacking with our computer gear.
When I access the setup utility and go to Manual Wireless Network Setup, the Wireless Network Name has defaulted to dlink, and Security Mode is None. I have to re-enter my personalized setup info, (because that is what our computers are looking for), then all works fine again.I'm a savy XP user, my wife has Vista (yuk) (she doesn't know any better; her daughter installed it).We are Comcast customers. We own a Linksys CM-100 modem. (When I connect direct by hardwire, (i.e. bypass the Dir-825 router), from the modem to any computer, or the Verizon Network Extender, they function just fine. Setup utility for Dir-825 says we have Hardware Version B-1; Firmware Version 2.02NA.
Set Firewall settings to Endpoint Independent for TCP and UDP. I see other posts addressing similar issues of reversion to default settings... but there don't seem to be any clear resolutions of these issues. On 2010-03-11, gunrunnerjohn posted, "I think there may be a shadow file that's actually in the FLASH that needs to get written back to make the changes stick. I seem to recall there is a command to sync the RAMDISK copies to the FLASH." Yet there is no more to this thread.
Does the following setting is a shipping default in the ACS 5.1?,In the Access Policies ->Network Device Admin -> Identity -> Advanced Options, the If user not found was set to “Continue” .
I currently have this router in use with verizon dsl (PPPoe) setup.I have this set to "always on". Since the verizon modem, which is also router has been set into bridge mode and the d-link came into play its been extremely slow, and dropping connection. The router is in a separate IP class, and has no conflict with the modem. My question is, if I upgrade this firmware from 1.0 to 1.02 will it default to factory settings? I know it says only some will. I do have the backup config file, but i would be doing this remotely, and would not be able to get to this router if it goes down. Has anyone gone from 1.0 to 1.2 and saw a difference and speed, and are you able to do this without losing settings.
We need to "reset" a SG200-08P switch back to the factory default settings and noted the "Quick Start Guide" implies the "Reset" button next to the power button doesn't exist and refers the user to the "Cisco Small Business Smart Switch Administration Guide" for instructions. We couldn't find any information related to a "factory reset" in that document either. Pressed the "paper clip button" on the switch but we still can't get in.
I have 2 WRVS4400N routers that were installed at 2 remote locations to provide VPN access to these sites. The routers have been found reset to the factory defaults on three occasions, twice on one of them and once on the other. Both sites are unmanned so no-one is on site to have pressed the reset button, and both routers were set to have remote management disabled. They are running v2013 firmware.
When ever I play a video a pop up will occur pertaining to permission for some site or another to store some of their information on my computer, I can choose accept or deny. I click on accept but the box just stays on the screen and I can't get rid of it. The only time that this box will pop up is if I'm reading any kind of story and there is a video to watch with it, I'll read the story then click on the video and then the box pops up and I tried clicking the accept then the deny buttons but nothing happens. Once in a while if I keep clicking one or the button repeatedly the box will go away but by the time that happens, the video is over. All I wanna do is change the settings so it will never pop up again. So how do I do that
I'm working on getting into Internet Connection Sharing (ICS from now one). I'm doing this for a number of reasons: I do have a network switch I hook my computer into. But, for a period of time each night, I have to unplug it. Don't ask me why. It's a long story. I do have wireless adapters that I use. However, they stopped being fully functional when we got a new wifi. But, we're not returning the wifi because all the laptops and smartphones can connect without any issues. Instead, I have opted to connect my desktop to my laptop via ICS and share the laptop's wifi. I was able to configure the IP addresses and Mask so that I could see the shared folders between the two computers. That's about as far as I got. How do I make it so the laptop shares it's internet connection with the desktop? [code]
I thought I might need to tweak the setting in ICS under the Settings button. But, I wasn't sure which IP address to use (most online instructions state that DHCP will assign the addresses and don't go in-depth or they have a rather bizarre IP setup).
Recently purchased a RVS4000 Router, which included v1.1.14 firmware. Is it necessary to reset the router to Factory Default settings, after upgrading to v1.2.11, as in most of the other previous upgrades?
My router automatically sets the wireless network settings to the original default. Sometimes after 1 hour sometimes after a week. It resets to automatic instead of the manulal settings I use for configuration. Changes the SSID to Linksys and disables wireless security.
So just recently my Internet has been running a lot slower than normal at different times of the day (completely random, could be fine for hours then just turns slow). I know it's not the Internet itself, since it's only happening on my computer, and none others in the house - and I'm far from capped. I've run AVG, Spybot & Malwarebytes' scans and have found no infections of any kind. I've run TCP Optimizer and used the "reset to windows default settings" feature, which also hasn't worked one bit. I've tried different Ethernet cables and different plugs in the modem and no improvement.
I've had my WRT54GL for a couple of months now, and it keeps wiping my saved settings and reverting back to the default. It works fine with all devices for a week or so after the initial set-up, then will only work on the system that is wired.
I've just managed to reset the WRT 300N to default settings and have setup the internet connection etc and home network ... BUT no matter how I've fiddled with the wireless settings I cannot get any of the laptops or mobile phones to connect wireless to the network.The Windows software on the laptops 'finds' the router OK but for some reason the router seems unwilling to supply an IP address.I've checked ALL of the settings that I can think of, and all are correct ... well, all are exactly the same as my old router which worked perfectly.
Is there any solution for automatic switching between wired and wireless network connection?
In my work we have two option for connection to network. Wired for working but with blocked pages like youtube and other streaming media. And wireless for visitors which haven't blocked any pages but I can't do my work on it. Can I by connected to both and some utility will doing switching between them? I want to use streaming and be connected to wired network which has blocked streaming.
I have a internet router 2921 .my isp is providing 100 mbps internet link with static public ip network .I am using a default static route to the isp wan ip .I am planning to upgrade 100 mbps to 114 mbps .Unfortunately my isp doesnt have gig port in their side .So they are ready to provide two 57 mbps line .Isp agreed they will route my public ip networks in both the links .
As a result i have two 54 mbps link with same network with two wan networks .My question is whether two default static route to both wan ip will carry out the load sharing correctly ?
Eg :
172.24.66.0 255.255.255.252 -first link my fa0/1 172.24.66.1 172.24.66.4 255.255.255.252 -second link my fa0/2 172.24.66.5 ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 172.24.66.2 ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 172.24.66.6
I use my desktop for streaming media throughout the house. I found it was causing lag for gaming most likely because it was taking up all the bandwidth for the router. We had a 2nd router laying around as well as a 2nd wireless adapter so we set up a 2nd network that was not connected to the internet for strictly media streaming.I attempted to change the network settings so the internet connection appeared as a public network so that streaming of media was hopefully diverted to the non internet wireless adapter.I want a faster way of transferring large video files from my laptop to my desktop. I recently bought a crossover cable to do this through direct connection.Both use the same user name and password as well as run the same win 7 pro however the desktop is the 64 bit version. I set up both ipv4 with the same addresses.When it has worked I am only getting a connection speed of just over 10mb and once I connect the crossover cable between the computers it knocks out my internet connection on the wireless card.
I want to know if its possible to create a Vpn connection ON a router so my router automatically connects through the vpn settings.As a result all the appliances that connect to the router would be connected to the vpn without having to change any settings. Is this possible ?
