Linksys Wireless-G (WRT54GS (EU/LA/UK))

I have the Linksys Wireless-G router configured as a wireless and hard wired home network. The wireless is for my laptops. This system is all set to DHCP with the router connected to the DSL incomming and the Linksys sharing the connection to the Internet. This has been configured and working like this for a while realibly. The set up is not configured through the browser because my home network is a mixed environment of Linux and PC's.

Whilst my network still works, I am no longer able to connect wirelessly, and from all accounts, suggests that the wireless element of the router is encountering extra ordinary problems or have failed completely. Has anyone ever encountered this, and is there a solution

    Thank you for your effort, however the problem is not one of IP conflict between the DSL and the router. As mentioned above, the connectivity of the network is in tact, and all my computers works perfectly fine as a network as well as being able to access the internet.

    The actual problem that I am having is if my laptops are not hard-wired connected then they cannot be connected via the linksys wifi. My laptops wifi configurations are in tact. This would suggest to me that there is certainly a problem with with lack of connections only residing in the wireless domain of the router.

    Perhaps you could forward other solutions other than the above.

I have had that issue quite often and found that when you are using a router with DSL, the DSL modem and Router IP has a conflict because they are the same number. I suggest looking into a D-Link wireless router for use with DSL.

My linksys wireless 802.11 g has stoped working. first i lost my secure wirelesss and then the linksys wire function. I have turn off and on on the linksys, but no connection and my home secured...

To reset the Linksys back to the default settings - Press and hold the pinhole RESET button at the back of therouter with the power ON for 20 secs. then release the RESET button.
To connect to your wireless router, the router's wireless settings needs to beconfigured with the SSID, encryption etc. and also the wireless cards in allthe laptops/computers needs to be configured with these router's wirelesssettings. Then the laptops/desktop computers can communicate with your wirelessrouter.
Connect a LAN cable from the Linksys to the LAN port on your computer.
Open a browser and enter the Linksys configuration URL
http://192.168.1.1
The default login = admin
The default PW = admin
You can protect your router by changing the default admin PW (write it down andput it in a safe place)
Go to the wireless configuration and set up the SSID and WPA or WPA2encryption.
Apply these settings to the wireless card in your laptop/computer.

or

If you are not able to access it with above ip then check your computers ip address gateway ip is your router ip try with it.
Then it ask for user name and password.
Type user as "admin" and password as "admin" or "password" or blank.
Then you can see configuration page of router.

My Linksys will connect with a cable but wont connect wireless!

Connect with a cable, and then follow the directions in the manual that came with the router, in order to connect to the web-server "inside" the router. Run the "Wireless Setup Wizard" to configure your wireless network.

I trying to fix a small office network and need some help. I have a netgear ds116 hub that currently has a linksys WAP54G access point connected to it for wireless access. The access point is not encypted...

So have a hub and a wireless access point at office.
Do u have a router in the network at office ?
The default IP address of the WAP54G will be 192.168.1.245.
The Sonic firewall is a different thing.
I think you are accessing the set up interface of the sonic wall with the IP address 192.168.1.1.
Where is the access point connected ?
Is it connected to the sonic firewall ?
The access point does not have the DHCP server.

My router is a wrt54gs wireless-g,but it is wired ether cable.

  1. Make sure that your game console is wi-fi/wireless ready.
  2. Check the wireless settings (SSID, Wireless Security) which are configured in your router. To do that you need to access your router's setup page.
  3. Launce IE from the computer connected to the router and type 192.168.1.1 which is the default IP address of Linksys routers. Then, it will open a window asking for a username and password. By default, there is no username. Type admin on the password field.
  4. Once you're in the router's user interface, click WIRELESS tab. Take note of the SSID or wireless network name.
  5. Then, click on a sub tab called Wireless Security. You will find there the type of security enabled in the router as well as the security key.
  6. These settings such as SSID and wireless security should be configured to your game console in order for it to connect to your wireless network through the Linksys router.
  7. Hope this helps!

Linksys

I assume that you want to connect wirelessly.

First, do you have a wireless network card, and is it enabled?
I will not go into the details of configuring your computer for a wireless adapter,since there are many configurations.

Second, Is your router configured for wireless connections? It should be by default.

If you can give me more details, I can assist you better.

Hope this helped!
