WRT160N - Local Game Servers Not Showing Up On Wireless
Feb 19, 2011
I run several game servers here locally.... Counter Strike Source, Unreal Tournament 3, Call of Duty 4, Call of Duty 4 GunGame, Garry's Mod.
They all run in their own VM's. All VM's are accessable on wireless via any other protocol RDP and UT3 web admin. None of the games show up in the in game server browsers in the LAN. If you connect wired to the gig switch they show up.
If you go into the console of a game and connect directly to the IP of the machine you can enter the game. There is no problem connecting with the server only that it doesnt show up in the browser on wireless
Obviously my wireless router is funky. WRT160N with DDWRT. Currently setup as an AP.
Living in a student house in the UK, under Orange ISP in central Manchester. My 5 housemates are connected wirelessly to the same router, and are all receiving much faster download speeds (2 megabytes per second etc), and consistant connections than mine (which goes up to 2 megabytes per second, to under 1 kilobyte), yet they may be further away in the house etc.My wireless connection speed varies, changing every second between parameters 54.0mbps, to 1mbps, and ping on ventrillo VoIP software going between 16 and believe it or not, 16,000. I've tried changing the wireless channels, but still no luck, as for connections to game servers, my internet is so bad I can't tell if I've got to do port forwarding/triggering (something along those lines), or if it's just too awful to connect full stop. I'll get to a log in screen, some games like HoN, it will say connecting to server, and appear to time out, nothing happens. Guild wars 2 however logs in, however the second I appear in-game it freezes and lags out.I've contemplated getting a powerline adapter, however if everyone else is getting better wireless speeds and having no issues what-so-ever, it may be on my PC's end, and I'll have wasted £30. A 20M ethernet cable isn't practical either, as student houses have forced closure fire doors which would chew the cable to bits in days, and if a drunk housemate tripped over it on the stairs, they'd rip the back of my PC out...
I've been having a strange intermitent problem with my E1500 wireless router. When we first bought and installed it everything was working well with no known problems. After several months no one using the router was able to access certain websites as well as a game server that we play on. No one had made any changes to the router settings and I assumed at first that it was an ISP problem. After talking with our ISP tech support they finally suggested plugging my PC directly into the modem rather then the router. I did and found that the websites and servers that previously wouldn't connect while using the router were now reachable. Any changes to the router settings since installation.I decided that just in case someone unauthorized had made changes to simply revert the router to factory settings and reinstall the software. After doing this I found that I could again reach the websites and servers that I previously could not. So time went on with no problems until a few months later when the same websites and servers were again unreachable by anyone on our router. I again reset the router to factory settings and changed passwords as a precaution, but this time the websites and servers were unreachable even though I had just reset the router.
When someone goes into a game (e.g. Minecraft) instead of typing an IP to join a game they simply type in [URL] and then the server gets added just the same as if you typed in an IP (123.456.789 sorta thing)
My friend used to do this on his website and it worked across multiple games, so people only entered his website and didnt need to remember the IP. if you type in [URL] in minecraft then u can add that server without the IP, thats what i mean.
my laptop was used by my Mother, So when i got back The anti virus guard got unknown error Avira free vers, and i had services.exe infected, and i had already found a way to clean it it, by renaming services.exe to services.bak and putting another computers services.exe.
i have and original xbox 360 hardwired to my linkisis router. i can use xbox live silver with all the game marketplaces and all that but when i have gold and try to go on multiplayer it says xbox liv servers are unavailible. my internet provider is xplornet and i have avg anti virus on my laptop
I was just playing a game, hosting a server with Hamachi, when all of a sudden, I disconnect from the internet. The Windows diagnostic says what I posted in the title. I have tried multiple things to get this working, but nothing seems to work. I have tried ipconfig /release, then going in the settings and tricking the network into giving me a new IP then typing ipconfig /renew. And that didn't work. I have deleted the Bonjour thing out of my services.
The last few days I had been getting the error that: "Local Area Connection doesn't have a valid IP configuration" whenever I reboot my computer. I have to power cycle the router before I can get back the internet connection. Checked on the web and tried various solutions which did not work. So I tried using various firmwares for the WRT160N V2 like V2.03 Build 7 and Build 9. Still did not work. Finally reverted back to my old and trusted FW2.02 Build 8. And this seemed to improve the situation. However, the error will still appear from time to time though not as frequently.
Since the number of computers are expanding at my home, I want to reduce Wireless Connectivity and increase Ethernet connection between computers. I will be running a Server that supports 10 TB Storage.Will a Custom PC be better or should I use a NAS connected to a web server?
I currently use a Linksys WRT160n router that supports only 4 ethernet connections.Now I need at least 40 Ethernet connections. Will a Switch do? Also I will be running Asterisk to support Telephones.
My web server will not function globally. Only in LAN.And also, the web server will have a 250gb Wikipedia Dump that will deploy 10 times; and also a lot of video from KhanAcademy for knowledge base.I am looking for something powerful which will be quiet and have less downtime.I have checked out Newegg, eRacks, and many other websites. But I am confused with what to consider buying.
A Local Web Server or a custom built PC for 10tb hard drive suppoty.Router that can provide wired connection to about 40 users.A Terminal so I can monitor the bandwidth usage.
When I'm pinging my mail server, it gave me different IP's at different times. As the mail server is actually owned by us, I would like to know if that is possible without the IP actually being changed by someone.
i have 2 ftp servers running on windows server 2008 r2 with IIS 7.0 FTP 1 on port 21 works seamlessly, however my second FTP i have port 2121 will when "accessed" via [URL] from inside the router everything will work fine, once attempted to use the ISP address outside or even inside the router everything goes sour. i do recieve a login prompt but the page times out after credentials are supplied, i have configured the firewall to allow 2121 inbound and 2120 outboud, for shits n giggles i allowed 2120 inbound, that didnt work so i deleted that entry after the fact. Ports are forwarded, and to my best knowelege the firewall is configured correctly.
The link to Local area connection on the PC i am working on is no longer showing under Network and Sharing center. However the connection is up and I can access the internet. If I do an ipconfig /all I see the adapter setting as I set them. In device manager the device is working properly. I checked the BIOS and the NIC is enabled
I am working on a new install where the customer is using local RADIUS servers at each of their many campuses (for local dynamic VLAN assignment), while using a single set of controllers at the core of their network. For the record, we have set up a pair of 5508s (v 7.2.103.0) in their central data center with 3602i APs around the various campuses. We are using FlexConnect groups to locally authenticate and switch the users.
Right now, the config is working great as far as authentication and local switching goes. The problem we are experiencing is that none of the authenticated usernames are being passed back to the controller (and ultimately NCS). This makes the tracking and troubleshooting of users difficult. Is there something I am missing here? I can't seem to find any fixes relevant to this issue in the 7.2.110.0 release notes.
Our companies dc cant connect to the internet and can only access the local networkI configured everything correctly eg ip adress dns and default gateway
My pc in the LAN can ping the local server but cannot connect ( cannot browse) it.Others in the LAN can connect it. I can also connect Internet but , not the local server. (when I type \192.168.... on my computer browser , answer " window cannot access \192.168.........)
Server 2008 has two Nics one connected to outside switch and has internet, other Nic is connected to local siwtches which has 20 systems connected locally but does not have internet. Local systems were getting IP from server, but there was not internet on the lan systems, I restarted the server and local systems lost IP address. earlier everyting was fine.
I have a FTP server at my local network and i have natted the private IP with my Public IP using default FTP Port ( 21) , now i have created Diffrent FTP Account in my server using port 2121 and i am able to login using the private IP with port 2121 , now i want to nat with my public IP with port 2121 and i failed,
1) 125.x.x.x --------- 10.10.1.x : 21 ( Able to access from external network)
2) 125.x.x.x ---------- 10.10.1.x : 2121 ( not able to login from external network and able to login internally )
my computer is a dell dimension 1100, with a Linksys WMP54G wifi card, running vista home basic.In the wifi thing in the notification area, it shows two wireless networks, One is my normal SSID (Lower Net), and one is "Unidentified network". They are both on one wireless connection (Wireless Network Connection 3). When i try to go on the internet, it says i'm not connected. i tried disconnecting from the unidentified network, but that disconnects me from lower net too.
I have recently started having a problem with wireless lag. I set up a linksys wrt54gl wireless router and pluged my PC directly into it since it doesnt have a wireless card. Recently my roomate has been complaining that whenever I start a game on steam he gets lag, he is on a wireless macbook. Our internet speed is 10mb/s and im wondering if it is the router.
With the E4100 I can setup a LAN game of call of duty mw3 and 1 xbox can join the other, pretty simple, Ive always been able to do this with all xbox games that have LAN ability.With the EA6500 I see the game is availible on LAN, but I can never connect to the game, it tries to connect and says cannot connect.Any LAN settings Im missing here, or just another EA6500 bug to add to the list?
i'm trying to setup a local DNS server to manage small office local-only domain names for our servers. i have the DNS working properly (resolving local machines and using the ISP dns if it can't). so i put the DNS server ip into the "Static DNS 1" field of the router settings. the other 2 static dns fields are empty.the problem is that the router is still using the ISP dns server as the primary and my local dns server as the secondary. i verify this in two places. first, if i go to the "status" tab, DNS 1 shows the ISP server while DNS 2 shows my local DNS server. secondly, if i connect to the wireless device with a linux-based machine, the /etc/resolv.conf file shows the nameserver ips in the same incorrect order.
About 10 months ago I got a new computer, with it I got a the Linksys AE1000 wireless adapter. At first all was fine, no blue screens. About a month after I got all my game and such installed (I am a bit of a gamer) I started to get bsod error 0x0000000D1 in the middle of my game. I wasn't sure the cause of the problem, so at first I ignored it. I started to get the same error more and more frequently and the same cause of the problem. I believe that the wireless adapter is the cause of the problem, but alas I can never be sure..
I've been wanting to port forward this game called Minecraft for quite awhile now, but never got around to it, but now that I've wanted to let my friends that can't play with hamachi play with me. I wanted to port forward it so that they go into the game without using hamachi, or any other networking program. I've already tried once and whenever I ran my server, I would say "FAILED TO BIND TO PORT" or just ask me this "Is another running on that port?"
I have CISCO DPC3825 router and theres about 3 computers and 2 wireless devices using internet through it. When i connect to a online video game I get these mini-disconnects. It happens periodically and frequently I'm not sure what is causing it.
I recently downloaded the crysis 2 demo. But i disconnect 2-5 minutes into a game. I tried playing while directly plug into the modem and i can play as long as i want.
I am currently using the D-Link DIR-615 HW VER:c1 FW VER:3.13.Crysis is the only game with this problem at the moment. I have tried googling it but still won't work.I have tried to disabled my firewall+antivirus and i still disconnect.
At my university I have huge lag spikes when playing Hon (heroes of newerth) my friends are playing and have no issues. As of now, I have turned all the graphics down to the lowest settings, disabled every function of the windows firewall I could find, and ensured no other programs are running (even closed explorer) Any idea what could be causing this? (I have no antivirus active)
ok so im obviously connected to the net as i can surf the web and play games online, however when i play something that requires a launcher/updater like MMOs the internet cannot connect to it? it also happens on steam.. i can view my friends and chat, launch and play games but i cannot view the store or anything via steam browser.
I bought a magazine 'PC JEUX', it had the game 'Far Cry' accompanied with it.On the case, it is mentioned Internet Explorer must be the default browser in order to use the interface. I ran it in internet explorer and the file was interrupted. I also ran it in Mozilla,Opera and Chrome but it was interrupted. I ran the setup.exe from the DVD and it said that it was not a valid Win 32 application. It had the game King Of Kings 3 also. It has the same problem.
via one of my friends having an issue with connecting to a variety of games for more than a few mins:When I join a game after about 5 or so minutes of play I get kicked out of the game and it throws this error "Game disconnected: your connection to the server timed out."If I attempt to re join a server the game then throws this error "Game disconnected: could not join server."The only way to play anoter 5 minutes is to restart my computer.Furthermore I have fios and a bigfoot killer 2100 NIC so pleanty of internet speed and low ping.
