A. default info for ddwrt is username root password admin

Linksys Wireless DHCP problem?
Q. I have two laptops that don't seem to reliably receive an IP address from the router, or they lose it after a short period of time, and then they cannot reconnect to the network ("limited or no connectivity". However, I have a third laptop that has *never* had a problem connecting, or staying connected. Connecting via ethernet always gets an IP. All are using XP Pro with all updates applied.
I am using a Linksys WRT54GS and WAP54G both with the most recent firmwares. I am using WEP only (no MAC filtering). I have updated the drivers and the management software on one of the problem laptops. I have tried different channels too. We are able to connect reliably to neighbors' networks, but I hesitate turning off security altogether. The WAP is in repeater mode; I have read elsewhere that each AP should have its own SSID - that struck me as incorrect, but the suggestion also indicated that having the same SSID would cause "confusion". The router has been swapped out (other prob)
DriftRB- tried/verified those, but problem persists. I was able to apply a static IP, but there was no 'connectivity'

KH - That's what I read in the manual too - WAP in repeater mode will only connect to a WRT54G router

Also, just to see, I turned off WEP & problem vanished.

Thanks for the help so far!

A. 1. Make sure that your DHCP range is large enough to support 3 laptops, i.e. you will need min of 3 address available.

2. DHCP may not be releasing address and then failing to reconnect each time you connect these laptops filling up your available connections.

3. Make sure DHCP is supported in your TCP/IP Properties.

4. Make sure that the LAN IP of the DHCP is added to the safe zone on your fire wall.

5. Do Not use Static IP in the DHCP range on these laptops, remove all static IP address's unless you have assigned these with the MAC address on the DHCP


Note - Locking Address to Laptops using a Static DHCP address for MAC Address of the Laptop could resolve this issue



FOLLOW UP (11:55am 10/10/2007):
Sorry if I confused about the static IP's. You want to have computers in the network to get the IP address from the router.
Remove the static IP's from the computers and enable the DHCP server on the router.
After doing this, reboot the computers and this should be working.


NAT for Xbox Live is strict.?
Q. My NAT is strict. How can I change my settings to open without breaking anything? What does open mean exactly?

P.S.: I have a WAP54G linksys router, could the newest firmware fix my problem?

A. You need to connect to your router through you pc and change it, read the instructions for your router.
Your ISP has nothing to do with it.


Why can't I access the setup page to my LINKSYS WAP54G ACCESS POINT?
Q. i am trying to access the set up page per my wireless WAP54G access point so that i can upgrade the firmware but i can not. all firewalls are off including anti virus ..... i have check tcp/ip properties which are set to automatic.... yes i have tried to connect the access point directly to the my computer via Ethernet cable. then went into internet explorer to access 192.168.1.1all and it gave me the following information:
