Can't connect to internet... router WRT54G linksys



Hi, I don't know what settings to choose on this router I'm using. It's a WRT54G Linksys router. It is for use at my church's youth ministry office. I don't know what kind of internet connection to choose or any custom settings I may need. Could someone please help me out step by step with the settings I would need to change from the default.  

I copied the ipconfig /all without the router attached to show you what a working connection looks like.  

Oh, and I want to hook a desktop to the connection and wireless access in this room. I unfortunately don't know what type of modem or router I'm getting the internet connection from. I hope you can help.

you have your own domain  

I'm assuming its for Holy Spirit Catholic Church Fountain Valley??  

Your domain probably assigns IP addresses. I highly recommend you get someone with IT networking experience to help you  

I wouldn't want someone not knowing what they are doing playing on my domain  

If you insist you need to do it post back and we can start trhye procedure with no guarantees  

Does the desktop have a wireless network card installed ?lLok at the back and tell me if you see an antenna or is there some cable plugged into a USB port and at the other end have something a little bigger then a Memory stick on the end of it?
i assume your new router is wireless?

limited access with wireless usually means you don't have a valid ip address assigned. you need two things for a working internet connection. 1. you need a physical connection, known as layer 1 and layer 2. 2. you need a logical connection known as layer 3.

if you've got the limited access message that means your laptop has a working wireless connection at layers 1 and 2. what you don't have is the layer 3 connection i.e. an ip address.

there could be a number of reasons why this is happening. i would suggest that you start by powering your pc down - shut it off completely not just hibernate it or just shut the lid. next power down the router, pull the power cord out of it. let the router sit unplugged for about 2 minutes. power the router back up......wait about 2 min more. power your pc back up.

learn how to use the command line command "ipconfig". you access the command line via the accessories folder on windows. when you get the c:/> prompt - enter the command "ipconfig" hit enter. in the group of stuff on the screen you want to see an ip addess assigned to the wireless interface. when you get the limited access message the first thing you want to do is check to see if you have an ip address assigned.

if the above trick doesn't work, then i suspect there is something wrong with your network configuration on your pc. if you take your laptop to a starbucks does it work there? see above to learn how to setup and configure ip passthrough mode for your router. if you need further assistance with your ip passthrough setup and configuration contact connectech support. jared, at&t community specialist Power off the router. 


Get yourself a copy of TeraTerm (it is old, but good)  

Connect your PC serial port to the CON port on the router and run TeraTerm, configured for the serial port, at 9600, 8 bits, no parity.


Press return a few times, and make sure you can see the output from the router.


Power off the router.  

Power it back on again, and when you see something, send a ‘BREAK’ by pressing Alt+B  

The router shoud return a boot> prompt.  

Type 


<b>config-reg 0x2142</b>


Then type


<b>boot</b>


Let the router load, and it will come up with the prompts asking if you want to use the configuration utility.  

Say <b>NO</b> to this.


Type the following when it gets to the > prompt


<b>en  

copy start run</b>  

{press return to the prompts from this command}


When it has finished


<b>show run</b>


Check and see if it has an ‘enable password’ command or an ‘enable secret’


<b>conf t  

config-reg 0x2102  

enable secret {whatever you want as a password}  

no enable password</b> (if it has one of these)  

<b>end  

wr</b>


And the password is changed. 


You should reboot to make the config register change, and also to confirm the password has changed correctly. 


I did all this from memory, so if it doesn’t work, then post here and I will double check, or someone will point out my stupid mistake 😉 Your card is ok. There is interference between the router and your computer.  

  

1. The router or the PC may be "hidden" behind a metal cabinet, refrigerator, etc.  

2. Move router higher  

3. Microwave ovens and some cordless phones (not cellphones) that use 2.4GHz will interfere with the 2.4GHz WiFi signal.  

4. Point the router antennas in-line with the direction of the PC.  

5. Move the router closer to the PC. in this case you can try simply rebooting your home router, if not at home please contact your network administrator.

failing this try using alternative dns -

You have to install another operating like Windows XP or Vista and then you will be able to use the net. If you have not done this before, you should propably find someone who has to help you. i've been having intermittent access problems also.  i changed the dns servers my wifi router is using to google's - 8.8.8.8   it seems to have resolved my issues. you can try a factory reset. push and hold the reset button for 15 seconds and then release. the button should be located on the back of your gateway/modem/router, and you will need a ballpoint pen or toothpick. you should then be able to access your gateway using the standard means with the passwords listed on the label on the gateway.  \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_how can you be in two places at once, when your not anywhere at all?i really want to become a procrastinator, but i keep putting it off.there are three kinds of people, those that can count, and those that can't.'our great democracies still tend to think that a stupid man is more likely to be honest than a clever man, and our politicians take advantage of this prejudice by pretending to be even more stupid than nature has made them.' :bertrand russell Dear Jay Nelish


Your Question is incomplete


is the specific system is not on Network? its might be a problem discovered last year, that system ping but not share any data, or cannot access the system


you click on start menu and then click on run  

type serivces.msc  

and run the computer browser service, Remote Procedure call service, Server, and Client service


and your problem will resolved  

but actually this is because of virus change your antivirus program and scan your system wtih updated A/V @ wrote:is there an option that i just haven't found that can be set for webroot to shut down the computer after a deep scan? do i need to enable the windows firewall? my router has a firewall that runs my computer in stealth mode.  hello ohheckyeah and welcome to the webroot community forums!  and to add yes you must have windows firewall on with wsa have a look here as to why: http://www.webroot.com/en\_us/secureanywhere/pc/wsa\_pc\_help.htm#c4\_firewall/ch4a\_managingfirewall.htm and it's a nice second layer to the router's firewall. cheers, daniel 😉
