Connection to WAP

Hey guys, any suggestions on how I can resolve a problem I'm having connecting to my Linksys WAP. The signal from the wap is strong but as of this morning I can no longer connect to the interface to manage it.
Anything thoughts?

An access point is used to extend the signal.
Have you set it up by putting the MAC address of the WAP into the router and vsetting it up as a repeater?

After you setup the WAP correctly, the TV should pick up the signal.

peter_picasa:

You cannot use a Wireless Access Point (WAP) to connect directly to your IPS's modem. A WAP does not provide the ability to share a single IP address on the internet like a router does.

Either return the WAP for a refund and buy a wireless router or buy an Ethernet wired-only router and plug the WAP into the LAN side of that router. You would then plug the WAN side of the Ethernet wired router into your modem.

Thanks for using FixYa.

One of my laptops connects fine, the other does

make sure that your laptops are using similar encryption types. If one is WAP, the other should be WAP also. But i suggest set both to WAP2... .then all of them should detect the signal that your wifi enabled router is broadcasting

WAP connecting to another WAP

On the D-Link WAN page, change IP Address to static and give it an address about 30 away from both the Hawking and the Linksys. On the DHCP page, disable DHCP.

In a multiple router network such as yours, you can only have ONE real router. The others have to be disabled as routers. Disable thier DHCP and give them static addresses that are all at leat 10? or more from each other. Wireless should all be the same setup. The on;y exception is the SSID which can be slightly different to know which wireless you are on.

No Internet Connection

Hmm... this sounds more of 2 things. Firewall and security. Is this a new unit that you have? If not, i suggest you take a look at the settings of the WAP to ensure you do not have mac authentification on (if it's WEP, you will be asked for the encrypted key, and since you did not mention any of this, i assume it's more of a MAC filter setting, preventing you from connecting to the network).

Alternatively, you might wanna find out if you have the WAP's firewall turned on, preventing you from accessing the network (norton's 360 firewall is a pain in the a**). Also, as a precuationary measure, you might wanna update the latest image of linksys's WAP, to ensure optimal performace. Hope this helped. Thanks.

WAP54G bricked power led blinking LAN connection shows as not connected

you did not specify where the wap is connected when you pinged it. Try this, connect the wap54g to your pc. Assign static ip 192.168.1.5 on the lan of the pc, then ping 192.168.1.245. if you can ping you should be able to access the configuration page. if the power is still blinking you can upgrade the firmware
