You need to log into the wireless router either by a computer that successfully connects wirelessly or by physically connecting with an ethernet cable. Once connected, log into the router by open a web browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Apple Safari), and typing the router's address (usually 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1) into the Address (or URL) line. The default usernameand password is usually "admin" & "admin" or "admin" & "password". Once successfully logged in, look for a tab or link that says "Wireless" or "Security". You'll be able to change whether security is enabled or disabled, and the password associated with it. Your security options are WEP or WPA (or WPA-PSK). WPA-PSK is the most secure, but WEP is also an acceptable choice. Select the security option of your choice and either enter text into the passphrase generator or choose your own password and type it into one of the security key text fields. If you use a password that is not a plain english combination of letters and numbers, be sure to write it down so that you can enter it as needed on other wireless devices that need to access your router (ie-pda phones, game consoles, laptops, desktops, etc). Be sure to save changes so that the security settings and password is saved.
Let me know how you make out.

How to check the wireless settings on your Linksys router

Do you need to know the wireless settings configured in your Linksys wireless router? This tip will you do this, I will show you how this can be done.

First, why do we need to know the wireless setting of your router?

Here are a few reasons why we need to know all of these:

  • We need to know the wireless settings if we wan to add a computer to the wireless network that you already have.
  • If we want to add a wireless devices like, wireless gaming adapters for your gaming system like Xbox.
  • You will also need to know the wireless settings of your network if you want your mobiles phones and other gadgets (iPhone, iPod touch, iPad,etc.) to get online through your wireless network.
What are the things we need to verify off of your router setup page? Here they are:
  • SSID - Wireless Network Name
  • Channel
  • Type of Security
  • Security code or password if there is one enabled.
Here are the steps on how this can be done:

  1. In your computer that is connected to the router, open your browser and type or copy and paste this link to the address bar http://192.168.1.1then hit return.
  2. A login box will pop-up asking for a user name and password. Just leave the user name field blank and type admin in the password field.
    Note:
    admin is the default password, if you can't login using the default password, you might have likely changed it during the initial configuration of your router.
  3. Once you are in the router Setup page, click on the tab at the top that says Wireless. In this page, you can get the following information.

    • Wireless Network Mode - This setting will allow you to choose if you want different types of wireless connection can be accepted by the router, you can choose B, G or Mixed. I recommend you leave it to Mixed.
    • Wireless Network Name / SSID - This is the field where you can put in the name you want for your network.The name you will set here will the name that your router will be broadcasting. By default your router uses the name "linksys". Imagine if the rest of your neighbors has the same brand of router.
    • Wireless Channel - This is the channel or frequency your router is operating on. This can be changed if you are having intermittent issues with your wireless network.
    • Wireless SSID Broadcast - This is one setting that is worth checking. If this is disabled, your router is still operating but the name of your network will be hidden. It's recommended to leave it enabled.

  4. Then click on the sub-tab under the Wireless tab that says Wireless Security. In this page, you will be able to verify the following information about your wireless network security.

    • Security Mode - By default this is set to Disabled. And these are the common security type used or enabled in a small office, home office netowrk.

    • WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) - If this is the type of security that is enabled in your router, you need to look for the "Default Transmit Key" or "Default Tx Key" this will tell you what key you need to use from the list of keys available. See image below for reference.

      beb23b5.jpg

    • WPA Personal (WI-FI Protected Access) - if this the security that you will see, you need to take note of the "WPA Shared Key" this is the password for your wireless netowrk. You can change this any time, and it should be a minimum of 8 characters. Note: If you change your password for the wireless, you wireless computer and other wireless devices that were able to connect fine prior to changing the password, may need to be reconfigured or reconnect and use the new password.

How do i set security for lynksys router/wrt54g

First you need to login to your router! To do that you will need your IP address. This will typically just be 192.168.1.1. Open a web browser (internet explorer, firefox, chrome, etc.) now type 192.168.1.1 into the address bar to bring up the login window for your router.
-----If the login window does not show up then that is the incorrect IP Address, so get on a computer that is plugged into the router by an ethernet cable and go to Start, click on Run and in the Run window type CMD and press enter to bring up the command prompt. In Vista or Windows 7, go to the Start Orb and type CMD into the Search bar, then right click on CMD in the pop up window and select Run As Administrator. Now that you're in command prompt, type IPCONFIG /ALL and press enter, now look for Default Gateway (that's the ip address of your router). Write that IP Address down and type it into a web browser.

Now that you're at the login window of your router, type in your login information. If you never changed your login information then the default information should be
Password = admin
(leave the username blank)
-------If you do not remember changing the login information, but a blank username and a password of admin does not work, then that means that SOMEONE put on a password, so you will have to reset your router by pressing on the reset button on the back of your router for 30sec, you will need a ballpoint pen or a paperclip to press on the button as it is very very small and recessed. Once reset, the login information should be no username and a password of admin.

Now that you're logged into your router, head over to the Administration tab and set up a new login password for the router so no one can login to it, except for you. You will have to type in a password that you make up, confirm it by typing it again, and then click on Save Settings at the bottom. Now a login window will pop up and you must type in your password that you just set.

Now click on the Wireless tab, in the Basic Wireless Setting subtab,set wireless network mode to Mixed. Create an SSID, this is the name of your wireless network basically. Leave Wireless Channel on 6. Now you can Enable or Disable Wireless SSID Broadcast. If you leave it Enabled, ANYONE within range of your network will be able to see it and if they want to try to break in they will have an easier time since they know the name of the network. However, if you Disable it, you will have to tell all of your wireless computer's the name of your network so that they can find it. That really isn't a big issue though since you're going to be typing in a WPA key on all of your wireless computers anyway. Now that you're done on this screen, click Save Settings at the bottom.
On the Wireless Security subtab, select WPA2 Personal for Wireless Mode. WPA Algorithms should be TKIP+AES. WPA Shared key is basically the password that all wireless computers will need in order to login to your wireless network, I stongly suggest you make it complicated with lower-case, upper-case, numerical, and special characters, i.e. iL!k3P1#, but don't use that as it is all over the internet now. Write down your shared key and store it somewhere safe. Leave Group Key Renewal at 3600sec. Now that you're done on this page Click Save Settings at the bottom.
Now you're done....Unless you want to go nuts and use MAC filtering. To do that, you will have to find the MAC address of every wireless piece of equipment, retrieve it's MAC address (that can be done in command prompt on computers, using the IPCONFIG /ALL command), type them into the MAC FIlter List and tell it to Permit Only PCs list to access the wireless network.
Anyway, now that you're all secure, your wireless equipment probably lost connection, so now you need to go to all your wireless computer/printers and set up new wireless connections using your new login informaiton.
Go to Start, click on Control Panel, in Control Panel click on Network Connections or Network and Sharing. Now click on Manage Wireless Networks, select Add, and then Manually create one by providing the information you created in your router. Remember SSID and Network Name are the same thing basically.
Hope this helps! If not, comment back and let us know!

Cant put a lcok on my smc router

Manual for WBR14-G2 router [6.2 MB] in pdf format:
http://www.smc.com/files/AG/MN_SMCWBR14-G2.pdf

Keeping others from connecting to your router:
1. Have an "wired only" router login access or for this router "change and disable your SSID". This way you avoid that others can login to
to the router changing your settings: See page 48 of the manual.
1.1 Wireless Network Name (SSID): change the default name SMC
to "any private name" ( and remember for later login )
1.2 Broadcast Wireless Network Name: change from default ENABLE
to DISABLE .

2. Make a secure wireless encryption key for your connection:
see page 87.
2.1 For most secure key select WPA / WPA2 only and SAVE SETTINGS .
2.2 See page 91 for entering and saving your secure key: the password
that must be entered to get access to the router.
