LAN problems with the router

works best if you hard wire from LAN port of main router to LAN port on second router. 2nd router never has anything plugged into internet port. 2nd router has dhcp turned off. 2nd router has a ip inside the 1st routers ip range but not the same as anything else

Are you using LAN? You can only access Administration if you reset the device through LAN (pressing reset button). You cannot access Admin config after reset through wireless... If your already using LAN, try turning your firewall off. And oh, your LAN should be plugged in to one of the LAN ports and not in the WAN port...

Hi,

Plesae make sure you have 2 different working condition LAN calbe with youto perform the steps mentioned below:

1. Make sure the Main Intenet calbe is connected to Router.

2. Make sure alternative LAN calbe is plugged in to LAN 1,2,3 or 4 at the back of the router and other end is plugged into your laptop.

3. Make sure you WLAN, DSL, Power, any one LAN cable pluggedin lights are blinking.

4. On your laptop keyboard, press start button and also "R" at the same time. This will give you run command box.

5. Type "cmd" and hit enter. This will open black background command prompt window.

6. Where the cursor is blinking, there type "ipconfig". This give you the IPaddress of the machine.

7. Copy or wirte down the IP address and open Internet Explorer.

8. In IE top address box of http, type the default gateway adress... Eg: 192.168.1.1

9. This will prompt for User ID and password.

10. Enter User ID as "admin" and password as " admin" or "password"

11. That will take you to router configuration page. Sellect Wireless and then wireless security.

12. Choose security type as open and Encryption type as WEP

13. Network security key as your choice of 10 digit numbers shich only you or your family members can use and access internet. and clikc submit. Later you can unplug the LAN cable from laptop as it will on wireless.

This should help you to go on wireless and help you to solve your problem.

Hi,

I got your issue, I hope you are trying to connect the 2nd router to the first router through LAN-LAN connection (i.e, LAN port of the first router is connected to the LAN port of the 2nd router)

Then you need to change the ipaddress of the 2nd Play Wireless router . Please follow these steps.

1. Connect the computer-router with ethernet cable and open up internet explorer and clear the address box and type in 192.168.2.1 and hit enter.

2. You will be logged into the Belkin router setup page, in the Left hand side under LAN setup click on LAN settings

3. It will ask for Login password, leave it blank and click on submit

4. Change the LAN ipaddress from 192.168.2.1 to 192.168.5.1 and click ok

5. The page will say cannot be displayed, then clear the address box and type in http://192.168.5.1 and hit enter

6. If your first router is connected to the internet , then automatically the internet status will says connected

7. You will be able to go online wired

Good Luck!
Thanks in Advance!

Yes, You can set it as a wireless access point. All you need to do is follow the steps below.

1. open internet browser, enter on the address bar http://routerlogin.com
2. username is admin, password is password.
3. Go to wireless, change the wireless settings like the ssid and setup the encrption. Go to LAn settings under advance.
4. Disable the dhcp server and change the ip address of your WNR1000
ex. You plan to connect your wnr1000 to a w ired route rwith an ip address of 192.168.1.1. You can set the wnr1000 to 192.168.1.x ( except 1)
Save the changes,
Plug the access point wnr1000 to the lan port on the main router and the other end also on the lan port on the wnr1000.(LAN to LAN)

It should be working now as an access point.

or rj45 connector if this all ok you need to go on router then make to resets this the router.the botton swicth is located from back of router its small hole just push to make resets..done...then restart the PC/Computer.good luck

The definition of the sound card, is a chipset integrated into the main board of your laptop, in order to provide sound to your built-in speakers, or to the headphone jack on your laptop. Internet LAN (or Local Area Network) is a port located either on the side or the rear of your computer, where you would plug in a Cable/DSL High-Speed Internet connection, using an Ethernet cable (also called RJ-45). Wireless LAN is the same idea, only instead of using an ethernet cable to provide you access to the internet, it uses a wireless signal or radio frequency, to connect to a wireless access point (usually provided by a wireless router in the area). More in-depth information can be found at the following links:

1. USB modem is connecting a PC USB port with a DSL phone line: CANNOT be connected to a ROUTER LAN (ethernet NOT USB port).
2. Wireless ROUTER is NOT a modem and it CANNOT connect the Internet (or WAN) LAN port to any "phone line"
3. Connect the Router Internet (WAN) port to Modem (you need a LAN MODEM = a modem with a LAN/ETHERNET port)
4. Be sure your internet is running before strting ROUTER configuration with Router Company CD
   

The 2 wire Home Portal 100w is a Modem/Router combination with wireless. But it has only one LAN port. So I understand that you are trying to use a DAX router for extending the number or ports. The reason they may not communicate if 2wire LAN is connected to DAX WAN is both may have same IP address. If the router has similar IP on WAN and LAN, it will not communicate. For that changing DAX router's LAN IP will be a solution or you can do LAN to LAN cascading. Connect 2Wire LAN to DAX LAN and dont use the WAN port. This way you dont have to change anything in the configuration

The 10/100 LAN is a wired connection. If it is connected to the wrt54g through an ethernet cable yes it will see anything on the wireless connection but if you want the computer to use a wireless connection then you will need to get an 802.11B or 802.11G wireless adapter. The wireless adapter does not have to be Linksys but it does generally make thing easier if you use all the same brand.
