A. Yes, I have one of these. Make sure to update the firmware to the latest version. This device only supports WEP encryption. If you are using WPA or WPA2 you will have to change it to WEP for it to work. If you are lucky enough to get the first version of the product (model number will not be followed by v1.1 or v1.2 on bottom of device), you can reflash the repeater with dd-wrt which will allow you to use WPA and WPA2


How do I install tomato RAF on my wrt160n v3 router?
Q. I tried looking up the official page at http://victek.is-a-geek.com/tomato.html but half the page is in spanish or something with tatterings of english. I also dont know if i need dd-wrt first. Can someone give me a comprehensive guide on doing this?

A. http://victek.is-a-geek.com/Repositorios/TomatoRAF/tomato-K26-1.28.9006MIPSR2_RAF-Std-NOCAT.trx This is for ( FOR ONLY 4MB Flash (MIPSR2.Kernel 2.6) No USB + Captive Portal. Updated June 13th.2011. For Asus RT-N10 RT-N12, Linksys E1000 v1, v1 & v3 WRT160N, WRT310N, WRT320N.)

http://victek.is-a-geek.com/Repositorios/TomatoRAF/tomato-K26-1.28.9006MIPSR2_RAF-VPN-NOCAT.trx This is for (FOR ONLY 4MB Flash (MIPSR2.Kernel 2.6) No USB + VPN + Captive Portal. Updated June 25th.2011. For Asus RT-N10 RT-N12, Linksys E1000 v1, v1 & v3 WRT160N, WRT310N, WRT320N.)

Then go to this website (http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=e9c2361ee7974d75913e61386a712188_4030.xml&pid=96&slnid=5) It will tell you how to upgrade your firmware. Do not download the file in the tutorial, just skip the instructions that tell you to download something. Then when it tells you to locate the firmware, use the tomato raf file from the link above. I am not responsible if this bricks or makes your router stop working. I don't know very much about tomato raf.

Setting up Linksys E1000 with PPPoE?
Q. I have a Westell 6100G (With Verizon DSL, PPPoE protocol) and a Linksys E1000 with the latest firmware.

I've put the Westell box in bridge mode, and disabled the private DHCP server. My computer is no longer able to connect to the internet with it.

I've cloned my MAC address for the Linksys E1000 router, entered the correct username and password for Verizon's PPPoE, entered Google's Public DNS addresses, rebooted the router, attempted to connect, and the connection failed. Is there something I've forgotten?

Notes:
- All hardware is brand-new and connected properly
- I'm running Linux, and Wine is having issues with Cisco Connect, so I used the router's web interface to tweak the settings
The error appears to be that the router is not receiving an IP address from Verizon when it attempts to connect.
I'm not really a networking expert...

A.
