Configuring WEP on the router First, let's log on to the router.

1. Open your internet browser and type http://192.168.1.1 in the address bar. This is the default IP address of the browser.
2. In the login box that appears type 'admin' (without quotes) in both fields. 'admin' is the default username and password.

Write down the SSID

1. In the Wireless > Basic Wireless Settings menu you will see the Service Set Identifier or SSID. The SSID differentiates one wireless network from another. It is the 'network name'. Write it down, or copy paste it to a text file. You will need it later. You can first set your own SSID if you like.

In the Linksys WRT54G router you will find the wireless security options under Wireless > Wireless Security. This page allows you to set wireless encryption options.
'WRT54G The Wireless Security page allows you to generate a strong network key. Here is how.

1. Select WEP in the security mode dropdown menu.
2. Set the Default Transmit Key to 1
3. Select 128 bits hex digits from the WEP encryption dropdown menu.
4. Enter any phrase or word in the Passphrase field and press the 'generate' button. The passphrase is just used to generate keys. It has no other purpose.
5. Copy-paste the first key to a text file or write it down.
6. Click Save Settings.

Your computer will now be disconnected from the router. You may see a 'page not found' warning or some other error message in your webbrowser. Your router now demands that computers that connect to it use WEP encryption and the correct WEP key. In other words: you have succesfully secured your network.

Setup steps:

1. Connect the computer to one of the four LAN ports on the router.

2. Open a web browser on the computer.

3. In the address bar of the web browser, type http://192.168.2.1

4. Click Login in the upper right-hand corner of the page. The router does not ship with a password, so just click Submit.

5. Click on Security in the left-hand column under the Wireless heading.

6. Use the drop-down menu and select "WPA/WPA2-Personal (PSK)".

7. Select either WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, or WPA-PSK+WPA-PSK2 as your Authentication; doing this will set the Encryption Technique automatically.

8. Enter a word or group of characters in the password (PSK) box. The Pre-Shared Key must be 8 to 63 characters in length. Note: The PSK (Pre-Shared Key) is case-sensitive ("A" is different than "a").

a. Unchecking the Obscure PSK box will allow you to see the security key that has been typed.

9. Click the "Apply Changes" button to save the settings.

Any/all wireless computers that connect to this network will be required to have this Pre-Shared Key (password).

Access the router's default configuration address through your Web browser by entering this address: http://192.168.1.1 (see Resources). Do not enter a user name. Enter "admin" for the password. That process works for all new Linksys routers. If you have changed the user name or password in the past, use the user name and password that you created.

2

When the configuration screen opens, click on the "Wireless" tab and select "Wireless Security" to view the router's current security password. The "Security Mode" field will say "Disabled" if you do not have a password to secure your network.

3

Select the appropriate encryption type from the "Security Mode" drop-down menu. Linksys routers offer WEP and WPA encryption. WPA encryption allows you to use a single password to access the network. WEP encryption creates 10- or 26-character keys that act as your password. Some of your wireless devices may only utilize a certain type of encryption. Determine which protocol is best for your network.

4

Enter a password that will be required to access the network. For WPA encryption, you can write your own password. For WEP encryption, click the "Generate" button to create passwords that can be used to access the network. Write down your passwords and keep them in a secure location.

5

Click "Save Settings" to confirm your changes. Your network will now be secured and will require a password for access.

6

Click the "Administration" tab to create a password to access the router configuration page itself. Be sure to change the password from the default "admin." Reenter the password for confirmation in the next field. Click "Save Settings" to confirm your new password.

you have to hook up thru the ethernet first.......to the computer from the netgear.........once connected go online in your browser...in the address bar type in this exactly 192.168.0.1 and then hit enter, you will see a small login screen user/login= admin, and password=password. now you should be looking at the router configuration page......there will be a tab or button that says wireless settings .....click it. you can change the SSID to a name you can recognize when "viewing available connections", scroll down and select wep 64 bit encryption, scroll down to where a box labeled key 1 is ...........in the box next to key 1 type in a 10 digit encryption (area code and phone number usually works great) and then click apply or save, usually located at the bottom of the page. once the page refreshes , double check your new settings to make sure they were saved...sometimes a router will force its own encryption and maynot save your 10 digit code in key1, if that happens just right down the code that is in it and you should be good to go. close out of all that stuff, pull out the ethernet cable and try to "view available wireless connections", you should then see your new SSID and click to connect with your new 10 digit encrytption code. also some routers have the default encryption code printed on the bottom of the router in a UPC type barcode with the numbers, it will say security pin or something close to that. its not the device mac or cmac.

This will help, rate me fixya. thanks. Passwords

• Remember passwords for sites: Firefox can securely save passwords you enter in web forms to make it easier to log on to websites. Clear this checkbox to prevent Firefox from remembering your passwords.
  • Even with this optionpreference checked, however, you'll still be asked whether to save passwords for a site when you first visit it. If you select Never for This Site, that site will be added to an exceptions list. To access that list or to remove sites from it, click the Exceptions... button.

• Use a master password: Firefox can protect sensitive information such as saved passwords and certificates by encrypting them using a master password. If you create a master password, each time you start Firefox, it will ask you to enter the password the first time it needs to access a certificate or stored password. You can set, change, or remove the master password by checking or unchecking this optionpreference or by clicking the Change Master Password... button. If a master password is already set, you will need to enter it in order to change or remove the master password.

2.0:

• Show Passwords...: You can manage saved passwords and delete individual passwords by clicking the Show Passwords... button.

2.0 3:

• Saved Passwords...: You can manage saved passwords and delete individual passwords by clicking the Saved Passwords... button.

• I am about to view a page that uses low-grade encryption: With this optionpreference enabled, Firefox will warn you when you visit a page which uses low-grade encryption.
• I leave an encrypted page for one that isn't encrypted: With this optionpreference enabled, Firefox will warn you every time you move from an encrypted page to an unencrypted page either by selecting a link on the page, selecting a bookmark or typing a new address into the location bar.
• I submit information that's not encrypted: When this optionpreference is enabled, Firefox will warn you when you submit data via a form that's not encrypted.
• I'm about to view an encrypted page that contains some unencrypted information: With this optionpreference enabled, Firefox will warn you when the page you're viewing contains a mixture of encrypted and unencrypted content. If an encrypted page contains unencrypted data, you should verify the identity of the page you're viewing prior to entering sensitive data.

Hi,
Go to your internet browser and type 192.168.2.1 into the address bar and press enter. (If it doesn't take you to the WIRELESS router's domain page, try 192.168.0.1)
Now click on Firewall (or similar in your router's domain page), and check the Mac Filtering and IP filtering settings. You shouldn't really have messed with these in the first place if you weren't sure what you were doing, but delete any entries there. If there aren't any entries, you can go into Utilities and Reset Factory Settings. That's the easiest way to get it back to a clean slate.
Make sure you let it completely reset, it'll tell you when you can connect to the internet. Don't touch anything while this is happening.
Then just exit from the browser and then re-enter the browser and everyone will be able to connect to the network wirelessly.
To protect it though, go back to the router's domain page and enable WEP or WPA encryption, setting a password for the encryption, and make sure you write it down somewhere!
Also, when others want to connect, they'll have to enter the username and password the first time they connect, but their laptops should remember the username and password for future connecting.
Hope this helps :)

Could be a variety of reasons.
Assuming you have not had it working before
Assuming the wifi is broadcasting it SSID
Assuming you have laptop connected by ethernet cable to hub:

Assuming you have XP:

Go to start/control panel/network connections/right click the wireless lan icon and select properties/select wireless connections and delete ALL previous entries.

With Vista go:start globe then

Control Panel\Network and Sharing\Manage Wireless Networks and delete all entries

Now:

press windows key and R
type cmd and enter
type ipconfig and enter
note lower set of figures ie 192.168.0.1
open browser and type in those figures and enter
should now open router firmware
When asked for log in use defaults of admin - admin or admin - password

navigate to wireless security and set encryption to WEP 64bit and create a simple encryption code - save settings

Change broadcast channel to 8

make sure wifi is set to open and not shared

Save all settings, allow hub to reboot and now see what happens

Requirements for WAP54G & WRT54G Repeater Mode function: * WRT54G: Firmware 2.02.2 or higher * WAP54G: Firmware 2.06 or higher Go to http://www.linksys.com/download to download the latest firmware upgrades for both devices. . Accessing the Router?s Setup Page: Open a Web Browser (either Internet Explorer or Netscape). 1. Type the IP Address of the Router into the Address Bar (192.168.1.1 is the default IP Address). 2. Click GO or press the [Enter] key. The User Name and Password prompt will appear. 1. Leave the User Name field blank. 2. Type admin in for the Password (the default Password). 3. Click OK or press the Enter key. The Router?s Setup page will open: * Click on the Status Tab. * Click on the Wireless sub tab. Write down the Wireless MAC Address and the Channel number values located on this page. If the Encryption Function is Disabled, go to the WAP54G Repeater Setup section below. If Encryption Function is Enabled: Note: WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is not yet compatible with wireless repeater mode. You must use WEP Encryption if you wish to use security options with this configuration. To gather WEP encryption information, click on the upper Wireless tab, then the Wireless Security sub tab. Write down the Passphrase. WAP54G Repeater Setup Be sure that you have the WAP54G plugged directly into one of the WRT54G?s numbered ports for the duration of the setup. Accessing the WAP54G?s Setup Page: Open a Web Browser (either Internet Explorer or Netscape). 1. Type the IP Address of the WAP54G into the Address Bar (192.168.1.245 is the default IP address). 2. Click GO or press the Enter key. 3. The User Name and Password prompt will appear. 4. Leave the User Name blank. 5. Type in admin for the Password (the default password). 6. Click OK or press the [Enter] key. The WAP54G?s Setup page will open. 1. Set the Channel value to the same channel as the WRT54G router that was obtained from earlier steps. 2. If WEP encryption was enabled on the WRT54G: * Select Enable for the Wireless Security option. * Click on the Edit Security Settings button and enter the same Passphrase as the one of the WRT54G router that you recorded. Click Generate to populate the WEP key fields. * Click Save Settings to save your changes and close the encryption window. Click Save Settings to save your changes on the Setup page. 3. Next, click on the AP Mode tab. * Select the Wireless Repeater option. * Enter the WIRELESS Mac Address from the WRT54G that you recorded. (Disregard the fact that the page asks to ?Enter the LAN MAC ADDRESS?). Click Save Settings to save your changes. Close your web browser. You can now place the WAP54G Access Point in another nearby location (with its power adapter plugged in) so that it can repeat the wireless signal that it receives from the WRT54G. Notes: * The ?SSID? of the WAP54G does not have to be the same as the WRT54G. This can be used for initial configuration; using a different SSID will enable testing of network connectivity, and will show that the WRT54G is associated with the WAP54G. * If MAC Filtering is configured on the WRT54G, no extra configuration is needed. Wireless clients will still need to be added the MAC Filter list of the WRT54G, but the WAP54G does not have to on the list.
