Will Tomato retain all current settings on my router, or will I have to set it up again from scratch? If from scratch, is there an easier way to ensuring I get all my custom configurations, then from going screen to screen and writing it down? I do periodically back up the config - will Tomato recognize that file?

Comcast service went down in our neighborhood and when it came back up my internet was down and all five LED lights on my Linksys router are solid green. Tech support tells me that I have to reset the unit to get it to function again.It's been a very long time since I set up the home network and while I'm pretty sure I can make my way through setting up from scratch (I'm assuming resetting goes back to factory settings) I was hoping there was a way to reconnect the router to the modem while retaining all the current security and settings.
View 2 Replies View Relatedour WRT310N router does not retain any configuration given to it. When we reset the device, it goes back to its factory settings. In that state we can access the device (http://192.168.1.1), make some changes and save it. The changes include giving it a different name from the default, and setting a password for the connection. However, when we try to use it for our wireless network, we cannot connect to the internet. Checking the Connection Status in a Windows XP laptop, we found out that we have been given a gateway different from what we have set the device into and thus a different set of IP addresses for each of the device.
Also at this time, we cannot access the router anymore (via 192.168.1.1 or via the gateway provided) and thus having no choice but to reset the device again. We then reinput the configuration desired, save it, restart the systems (both PCs and router) but after a few moments (initially it retains the settings chosen) we won't be able to connect through the Internet and find out that the router has a different configuration again. We also tried letting the device "rest" but the same problem persists.
I have a iphone that will not retain the password for a WRT54g. Each time I leave the house, I have to renter the wifi password on my phone. It remembers other networks, just not the house.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI just installed Tomato firmware (details below) on my wireless-N router and everything appears to be working fine on the router's end. I can connect to the Internet properly with a wired (Ethernet) connection; in fact, that's how I posted this question.
What I cannot do is connect to the router wirelessly in any way. At first, I thought that something was wrong with my wireless security settings, because I read about some incompatibilities between Windows 7 and AES encryption. However, when I changed to TKIP, the issue persisted; when I switched from WPA2 Personal to WEP, the issue persisted; and when I disabled wireless security entirely — just for testing purposes — the issue still persisted.
My Internet search for this issue brought up a lot of old forum and mailing list posts, most of which were useless. The only one that seemed promising suggested disabling Afterburner, but that came disabled by default on my install. I did try enabling it and then disabling it, but it had no apparent effect.
In case it's relevant: before I installed Tomato, I had a somewhat funky install of dd-wrt on the router. The first thing I did after installing Tomato was a full clean of the nvram through the web GUI's Administration → Configuration → Restore Default Configuration menu.
What do I have to do to get wireless running? I only have one computer available at the moment, but I'll try to update later if and when I can borrow more devices for testing.
Assorted specs:
Linksys WRT160N v3
Tomato Firmware v1.28.9054 MIPSR2-beta K26 Mini
Linux kernel 2.6.22.19 and Broadcom Wireless Driver 5.10.147.0 updates
EDIT:This is a computer issue, not a router issue. Two smartphones with wi-fi connections and another computer are all able to connect to the wireless network with no problems. However, the original computer was able to connect to the same router just fine before Tomato was installed. It has an internal wireless-B/G card, and I had Tomato set up to broadcast G-only, so it should have been compatible.
EDIT 2:The computer in question was the only device in the house that wasn't set up for wireless-N, so I went out and bought a Wireless-N USB adapter and changed Tomato to be N-only. Using the new adapter, I get connection again. I suppose it's possible that the computer's OEM internal wireless card failed at exactly the same time that I installed Tomato on the router, but that would be one heck of a coincidence. I'll see if I can connect to some other G or B network next time I'm around one....
Have been using the Router for four years, recently its started to lose "memory" re. my user name and password. Switching off overnight, I'm not able to connect to the internet until I login and fill in the two boxes for my ID & PW.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an Asus RT-N10 flashed with Tomato, and I was trying to set it up as a Bridge to pick up the signal from my Rosewill EasyN400, so I changed the IP from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.0.1 because that is the IP I use to access my Rosewill router's config.
Well now I can't access the Tomato log in using either IP
I picked up a WRT54G 3.1, installed Tomato 1.28, and went through the instructions here to setup WDS: [URL]. As soon as I hit SAVE, I can no longer access the router, wired, wirelessly, or any other way shape or form. I'm sure i didn't change the IP address on the router (thus changing the admin local URL), I've tried going with HTTPS but was pretty certain that wasn't the issue anyway.Right now, I've got a chunk of blue and grey plastic on my desk, and no extended network. My plan was to use this to extend the Time Capsule network so I can plug my XBOX into the WRT54G in another room. In any event, if it were only network config I was dealing with, but how in the heck can I connect to the Tomato admin on the WRT54G now?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to get a better connection in my detached garage. I'm currently using the built-in WiFi on my laptop getting. My signal is decent (50%) but internet gets laggy (at some points unusable). My current router is a WRT54GS v4 with Tomato and signal output at 92 on a unused channel. I was intending on getting WRT54GS v2 to use as my router and the v4 to use as a bridge then plugging in the laptop directly into that. Could it be possible my router is going out or just plain doing to much? I have a BEFRS41 to do routing duties so the 54GS can stick to WiFi.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a newer N Router (Dlink DIR-655) and the wireless signal coming off of it, just isn't strong enough. I was planning on using the WTF54GL to repeat the signal and inturn increase the coverage area. I've installed the latest version of Tomato on there (v1.28) and have gone through setting it up as a wireless client, wireless ethernet bridge (which works for picking up the wireless signal and then plugging something in via ethernet has internet), access point, access point + wds and just wds. None of which I can get to seem to properly repeat the wireless signal with internet connectivity. I have both routers set to G only channel 6, WPA Personal, Is this even possible? Or do I need a router that can run the tomato firmware on the main (host) router that is connected to the net?

Is it possible to add a second router to extend the wireless? I would want to have the second router connected via Cat6 instead of wireless. I would probably go with a WRT54GL.

View 1 Replies View RelatedCurrently I have a small home network. Two desktops are connected to the router, which is wire-connected to the Time Warner modem. The desktops share folders, and there is a shared printer. Our laptop also accesses the network wirelessly. Yes, the network has a password.
We are students, and our school is installing free wi-fi in our building. I am only too happy to drop Time Warner. How can I maintain my current file sharing and printer sharing functionality without sharing with the entire WiFi network? Is there some way to allow my current router to access the WiFi and still use it for my home network?

I have an old WRT54G and the access restrictions really don't work. it's sloppy and ineffective.
i'm thinking about upgrading... perhaps to the E2500. Do the access restrictions now work properly? Am I able to allow access to a specific site only during certain times?
For instance, am I able to provide access to [URL] only during 6:00pm-9:00pm and block it otherwise?
I have a WRT54GL v1.1 that has firmware version 4.30.14 build 5 installed(according to the device). The latest version listed on your website is 4.30.13. What does this mean? How do I get a backup of my current version?The device seems to be working fine and the manual I downloaded seems to cover it. I'm on a Mac so I have to set it up manually.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have what I believe is an original (V1) version of the BEFSR41 gateway/router. The label underneath the device only shows the model number with no version information. Current firmware version on the device is 1.46.02, dated Aug 03 2004.
Can I confirm (1) that I indeed this router is at hardware version 1? If that is the case it appears from your web site that version 1.46.02 is in fact the current and only firmware version for the device and that there are no firmware version upgrades available.
The DHCP software current does not have IP address reservation, which I am interested in adding if possible via firmware upgrade. If not then I have to consider whether I want this feature bad enough to replace the router.
I have a Cisco 1921 to replace our current router which is constantly freezing. We have a couple inside servers, one is a web server and application server which needs to be RDP'd to by a couple of clients outside of our network. I cannot get this to work no matter what. I know it's not the server's setup as when I plug the network back into the old router, it works just fine.
All clients have access to the internet, and I can successfully ping/resolve hosts from both the router and a client computer connected. I cannot, however, rdp using neither our public IP, nor our hostname. The hostname does resolve to our ISP assigned IP, but the server cannot be contacted, leading me to belive this is a NAT issue.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI currently have mutiple computers at my place. Once the computer turned on i want the option of which login for the current computer to use, it can login it current computer or the mutiples computer with their content/data all inside. So more like an computer linked. Example, it can only to A or B, A is the current computer data, while B have all the data of the different computer monitor datas, and if i login B it will show that current computer info. And same goes to the B computer, i can login to A or B on the B computer. What makes this very good is that, both the computer logins are sort of connected, for example if im on actual computer A, but logined to computer B and downloaded/changed some files/data on the B login, once i login on computer B to login B, the changes will apply even tho the changes are done in computer A.
