Linksys Wireless Router :: Cannot Connect Wifi Devices To Ea6500

Mar 19, 2013

To preface this message I need to state that I am functionally illiterate when it comes to any kind of networking. I just replaced an old Linksys wireless-G router with a new Linksys EA6500 router.  My needs are as follows: I am connecting 4 desktop computers (two personal and two business) via Ethernet cables.  In addition there will be three smart phones, two DVD players and one game console connected wirelessly.  In the future I will add a printer, hard drive and more wireless devices.  After installing the hardware and running the setup disk all four computers wired with Ethernet cables worked fine (although they are not set up to communicate or share files with one another - they only need to access the internet.  My problem is with the wireless connectivity.  I cannot get any one of the wireless devices to work.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Ea6500 Support For Wifi Devices On Wpa (tkip)

Mar 21, 2013

Although EA6500 states support for WPA devices it appears that some B devices (like HP Wi-Fi printer PSC 2510) are not supported. The lack of support seems due to the lack of WPA with TKIP encryption, only the newer EAS encryption appears to be available.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Connect Exchange Server Via Wifi And Ea6500?

Dec 30, 2012

Since I have installed my new router, a Linksys EA6500, I have many problems to connect to my Exchange Server, which is located in my house, via Wifi. I tried to synchronize my Iphone and my Samsung tablet but it won't work. Most of the times I get the message that the Exchange server cannot be connected. When I turn off my Wifi en connect via my mobile provider I have no problems. When I am on a third party wifi I also can connect my server. Seems my own wifi causes lots of problems.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA6500 Has Numerous Network Devices With No MAC?

Feb 22, 2013

I have noticed from time to time I get many (15-20) "network devices" in the Device List with no MAC address. I notice this mainly when managing Parental Controls. I go and clean up the Device List and days later they reappear. Another interesting thing is that the computer I am writing this with (through the router) does not show up in the Device List and I have an IP address from the router. I have the latest firmware 1.1.28.146856. Does anyone else see this on their EA6500?

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA6500 Does Not List AppleTV Devices

Apr 30, 2013

I have an EA6500 and have three AppleTV... all three generations.l  I also have a DirecTV Genie and DirecTV HD-DVR that, together, provide whole-house viewing.  When I first setup the EA6400 based network, all three AppleTVs were listed and my whole-house viewing worked.  This past Saturday, however, that changed, when I couldn't see the programs recorded on the HD-DVR, from the Genie.  My troubleshooting determined one of the AppleTVs had been assigned the same address as the HD-DVR upstairs and that the HD-DVR wasn't listed as being connected.  Once I reset everything, the IPs resolved and the whole-house viewing was resolved, however, none of the AppleTVs are listed as connected, even though they are.  I can check the connections by the AppleTV device and see that they do, indeed, have an IP address, and I can view material from the iTunes cloud or stored on another PC in the local network.  I reset everything again, but to no avail.  No AppleTV devies show as connected from Smart Wi-Fi.  The AppeTVs are all wired to the LAN... not wireless.
 
So, the question is, is there a fix to get AppleTV devices to list?  All of my devices and router have the lastest firmware.  BTW, I had a WRT610N, which I'm now useing as an access point, didn't have this issue.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA6500 Multiple Devices Under One Device?

Oct 14, 2012

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.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA6500 Devices Not Appearing In Network Window?

Jan 31, 2013

We 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.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA6500 Multiple Devices Under One Device Workaround?

Dec 9, 2012

Once your devices start showing up in your device list make a DHCP reservation for each device. (after confirming that no other devices are listed under it).
 
If you have a device that has multiple MAC & ip addresses under it you MUST first determine what the devices are listed & power-down before you can delete the device. Also note that some wired devices will still show as connected so you must have to either power down the device by pulling Th power cord OR disconnect the ethernet cable.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA6500 - Identifying Devices Causing High Usage?

Mar 28, 2013

I'm thinking of purchasing a Cisco Linksys EA6500. I need a router that can one monitor bandwidth used by device. Keep exceeding our ISP's network bandwidth allocation, need to identify the devices that are causing this high usage and be able to do so from the router. Does the EA6500's standard software support this, is their router software one can obtain for the unit that does this or is there another home router option that can perform this function?

Linksys Wireless Router :: Ea6500 / Log In Error And Poor Wifi Speed?

Jan 19, 2013

I just picked up a EA6500 wireless router today and I am a bit disappointed. I paid $199 for this router because I was hoping to take advantage of of fast N speeds and the advanced features it offers.When I first logged in to set up the router, I saw an amber exclamation point with a note that read "Updating Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Service". When I put my password in I was met with a "Unexpected Error" message.Also, the firmware updater doesn't work. Now on to the more bothersome issue. Wireless speed is poor. I replaced a WRT160NL router with this one. On my old router using WPA2-Personal (AES) I would see speeds of ~300 Mbps. On my EA6500, I see 120 Mbps. I have checked and double checked all wireless and security settings and don't see anything that looks wrong.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Can't Associate Ea6500 To Smart Wifi Account

Mar 9, 2013

have a problem with my EA6500 router. I can't connect to the internet, the connexion works fine. But, everytime i go on the smart wifi login page, i enter my login and password and then i'm asked to download the software for my EA6500 and to associate it with my account. The problem is that i just can't update it manually because i couldn't ever go on the tools page. Never.So i'm here with a great router but i can't configure it. I asked the support service several times but they always asked me to reset the router. Nothing changes.I 'm still unable to process after the login page, i have created a account successfully, i can login but everytime i just get stucked at " Associate your router with your account" page. My only options there is to click on OKAY or a link to download the firmware on Linksys support. I get the firmware but i can't install it because i can't go in the administrative page.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Ea6500 - Smart Wifi Device List Incorrect

Feb 27, 2013

The smart wi-fi app Device List indicates Local Network = 0 (that's incorrect) and Guest Network = 0 (that's correct). When i click Connected Devices for My Network, i see a list of devices but everything indicates 'Offline' and that of course is incorrect.How can i upgrade this software? I recently installed EA6500 and due to being slow, it was recommended to set back to factory default. That process did no go well, so i hope it is not necessary again. This router is not any better then the wrt320N so i am disappointed.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Unable To Connect To EA6500

Apr 13, 2013

I just bought the EA6500 last week. Had to RMA it on Monday and got the new one today. The issue still persists. The power light is constantly blinking and my computer is unable to obtain an IP address from it. I contacted tech support and was unable to get the issue resolved so I had it exchanged believing it was defective. The new one does the same thing. When I connect my computer to it, the light on my Ethernet port stays a solid orange instead of green like it does for my usual router. The Cisco light is constantly blinking.

Linksys Wireless Router :: IPhones Won't Connect To EA6500 On 2.4 GHz

Apr 1, 2013

I have it set up as Capri (2.4 GHz) and CapriHD (5 GHz). CapriHD was intended only for HD video traffic. My wife's iphone 4S can only use 2.4 GHz, and it suddenly quit connecting after 1-2 months of use. My iphone 5 can use either band and it can only connect on 5 GHz.  This problem MIGHT correspond to the recent firmware upgrade?  I was traveling a lot around that time so can't be sure that is a culprit.Really thought the problem was the hardware, so I replaced it with a new EA6500 and getting the same result.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA6500 Can't Connect To Internet

Sep 23, 2012

Got my new EA6500 on Friday.  I can't connect to the internet with it.To start with, I have a cable modem that is connected directly to my desktop to verify I have a good internet connection.  I do (can browse the web).  Then, I disconnected the cable from my desktop and plugged it into the "internet" port on the EA6500.  With a new cable, connected one end to the desktop and the other end to Port 1 on the router.  Now I no longer have an internet connection.Went throught varioius sequences of rebooting the computer / router / cable modem with no change.
 
Then disconnected the cable that was pugged into "internet" on the router and plugged it back into the desktop -- internet service restored.  So, I have a good connection to the web.
 
When I had the router in the config, I was able to go to IP 192.168.1.1 and see the routers setup screens, so the connection between the computer and the router was good.I also was able to try the wireless on the router by connecting my iPhone.  Iphone connected to the router (joined the network), but couldn't get to the internet.
 
It's as if the internet connection withing the router is broken.I even did a reset of the router which didn't work. Using this new router via hard wires should work out of the box with no setup necessary.
 
I did also try running the install software to see if it made a difference.  Setup detected no internet, but I selected to continue on without the internet connection.  Software guided me to setting up my wireless network (choose SSID, etc) and that completed.  Was able to connect with my iPhone to the newley found SSID, but still no internet.

Linksys Wireless Router :: How To Connect EA6500 To Phone Line

Jan 25, 2013

I just bought  an ea6500 to replace my old Billion router and up to now all I've had to do is plug my phone line directly into the "phone line in" port on the back of the billion router. But I see there is no "phone line in" port on the ea6500, I don't use a modem and have used the billion router by itself for the past 6 years, is there a way to connect my phone line directly to the ea6500 somehow? My research so far indicates you can't do it via an 'Ethernet / phone line adaptor' as they are incompatable anyway.
 
The install guide seems to expect a Modem is being used but in my case it hasn't been and I would think a router should perform the basic functions of a modem anyway ?
 
My concern is that if I really need to purchase a modem then won't this potentially 'throttle' the capabilities of the ea6500 which is the reason I've bought it in the first place ?
 
If I do need to purchase a modem to get my ea6500 working then what specs should I be looking for ??

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA6500 And CISCO Cloud Connect

Feb 9, 2013

This issue seems to happen about once every week or so.  I get the router settings all configured and I'm able to access it from Cloud Connect and from the APP on my smartphone.  After about a week, it's no longer accessible from cloudconnect, I can access it from my smartphone, but it shows that there are no devices connected (when they are actually connected).  The screen for cloudconnect will come up after I sign in, but it just has the circling dots in the center of the screen saying "waiting" and it will do this until I close out explorer.  The only way I've found to resolve this is to reset the router and set everything from scratch.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Ea4500 - Cannot Get Wifi Devices To See Nas Or Itunes Pc

Mar 31, 2013

I just purchased a Linksys EA4500 (firmware is up to date). However while it set itself up wonderfully. I cannot get my wireless devices (specifically my apple tv) to see my NAS or my itunes PC, My ipads can access the NAS if i put in the correct address but not automatically.
 
Everything is connected to my cisco switch that is hardwired (2 xboxes, 2 ps3, 3 tv's, Wii, network audio receiver, 2 NAS, printer, 2 computers, etc). I disabled the Wi-Fi on the bell router. On the wifi are a few ipads, 3 blackberries, 1 iphone, 2 laptops).I am fully aware that the reason the wireless devices cannot see the hardwired equipment is because it is on a different subnet.

However when i try and change the IP address of the router to 192.168.2.2 (putting it on the same subnet) the router must detect a conflict then changes itself to a class A address (10.x.x.x) OR i get an INVALID IP address. As well i have noticed an overall degradation in the speed of my network (all gigabit hardware with cat 6 cabling)

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA6500 When Connect PC Directly To Modem / Configure PPPoE Connection

I have rather huge connection at home. DL speed 80Mb, UL speed 3Mb.When I connect my PC directly to modem and configure PPPoE connection, I get 81Mbits/sec. When I connect my old ASMAX $30 router, I get 78 Mbit/sek. And I find it OK.But when I connect my EA6500 I get 28 MBits/sec. Same result on wire as on wireless connection. Of course If I enable prioritisation, I get even less, 12-15 Mbits/sec.I tried already even configuration with ASMAX as wired router and EA6500 connected to its LAN port. It gives me 50Mbits/sec.
