I need help geting a linksys E2000 Wireless N-Router to work.?

Q. I have recently purchased a wireless n router from linksys. i cant get it to connect to the internet however.

I ran through the setup on the included disk and it will not connect.

I tried to reboot both the router and the modem after restarting the computer and still got nothing.

I really need to get this wireless working again.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

A. Reset the router to defaults and start over following the directions carefully.
The manual is here:
http://homedownloads.cisco.com/downloads/userguide/E2000_UG_USA_V10_NC-WEB.pdf
If you still have trouble, call Linksys, or review the "Basic Set up" on page 16.
This can be confusing, but take your time and all will be well.


My wireless router wont let me connect to the internet?
Q. i have an linksys e2000 , its connected to my computer wired and connected to my sister laptop wireless. It wont let any connect to the internet , but when i disconnect the router ,i can connect to the internet on the computer it was wired to. Also it wont let me reinstall it since i uninstall it and it keeps saying your wireless router is already set up on a different computer when its not. Does anyone know fix this? any advice would help

A. Did you do any initial configuration on it when you first hooked it up?

Try logging into the router's configuration page via a computer connected to it on ethernet cable; the page should be at 192.168.1.1 from your web browser (or a similar IP; check the manual that came with it to be sure). You should then be prompted for a login; if you've never logged into your router before, the login is probably "admin" and the password "admin", although you'll obviously want to change that ASAP for security reasons.

Once you're at your router's configuration page, set up your network settings, wireless settings, etc. Check all the current settings and fix anything that shouldn't be there; one of those settings might the the cause of your problem.

If you can't log into your router, you'll need to reset it using the reset button on the back and log into it using the default login I just gave you.

If nothing else works, you might need to contact the manufacturer for assistance.


why cant my wirless devices see my wired devices?
Q. so here is the problem i have a bunch of wired devices on my network that host media to the rest of my devices videos music what have you. and i have wireless devices laptops tablets and other stuff that use these media hubs or did at least all of a sudden all my wireless devices stopped being able to se the wired devices unless i wired them up. now don't go insulting my intelligence with things like check your drivers or make Shure your wireless devises are hooked up right or i will find your grandma and slap her silly. all the desktops with wired connections are running windows 7 and the router is a cisco Linksys E2000 any solutions?

A. The E2000 includes a feature called AP Isolation. If this has been turned on, then it stops wireless clients being able to connect to other clients. It is not clear in the manual pages I have read as to whether this stops wireless clients from connecting to wired clients.

I suggest that you check that this feature has not been enabled, possibly by accident or through a router firmware bug. If it is enabled, disable it. If it is disabled, I would try enabling it, then rebooting the router and then disabling it again.

I hope this helps.


Router Problem Help Please?
Q. I own a Cisco Linksys E200 Wireless router. When I first got it, it work great. I had Wi-fi on my PS3, Ipod, laptop. Then, six months or so later my PS3 and Ipod stopped being able to connect. My Ipod says a message "Unable to connect to "wireless"". The Ipod works with any other wi-fi. My PS3 gives the message "An error occured during the communication with the sever. DNS error 80710102"I've tried all that stuff people say to do but none of it works. But my sister recently came home from college with her laptop and it gets wi-fi everywhere in the house. What is the problem here? Thanks!

A. Off the top of my head I'd say you need to check your DHCP client reservation setup. Essentially, you can specify how many IPs (devices) are allowed to access the wireless LAN at once. Check the manual for the E2000 here: http://home.cisco.com/assets/presskit/userguides/e2000_ug.pdf. Read the section on DHCP reservation and see if the IP for your device (one which does not connect) is listed. If it is, there's something else going on and you may need to do some more research. If it's not listed, you can add it manually. I would recommend adding it using the device's MAC address which will allow access by the same device permanently, no matter what other changes are made.

Holler back if this doesn't work and we'll go from there.

Hope this helped!
Peace!
The Reverend
