"Using a Range Expander is not recommended if you have a Linksys Wireless-N Router." This info was found at the bottom of this link under the note.

I found a list of router that it should work with. All the routers listed are G routers though.

You should check to see if you router model # is in this list.
Cisco owns Linksys FYI.
Hope this helps you. Even though it says that it is not recommended to use it if you can still try it to see if it works. You can always go back to the way things were.

Hi Friend, In this case I would recommend you to please reset the range expander once again and connect the range expander with the ethernet cable once again. Match the settings of the router to the range expander I mean while configuring the range expander, the wireless network name and the wireless key should be same and the channel should be same and the security type should be same.
If it still doesn't work then I would recommend you to please try to change the channel to 1 or 9 or 11

Leave the router on. Press the reset button in on the back for 30 secs. Then unplug and press in again for 30secs. This will reset all settings to default and 192.168.1.1 will be the router IP. THe range expander needs to be reconfigured with the original disc. This can be found at www.linksys.com The expanders are offten tricky, mine kept changing the 3rd octet to 2. I.E 192.168.2.1 Might test that to see :)

Try to reset WRE54G
Resetting the Range Expander to Factory Default
The range expander can be set to factory default by pressing the Reset button of the range expander for 20 seconds.

NOTE: The default IP address of a range expander is 192.168.1.240.

After resetting the range expander to factory default and you're still unable to access the web-based setup page, make sure that your computer's proxy settings are disabled. For instructions, click here. To disable the proxy settings using a Mac computer, click here.

NOTE: If all the steps above failed, try to disable any security software on your computer before accessing the range expander's web-based setup page. Click here to learn how to disable your computer's firewall.



If you are using a Wireless-G Range Expander (WRE54G v2 or v3) and you can't access the web-based setup page, perform the following steps:

Checking Physical Connections

Make sure that the computer is connected to the range expander's LAN or Ethernet Port. If the range expander is properly connected, check the LEDs on the network adapter. For instructions, follow the steps below:

Checking LEDs on the Network Adapter
Make sure that the LED light of the computer's network adapter is lit or blinking. After checking the LEDs on the network adapter, assign the computer a static IP address.
NOTE: If the network adapter's LED is not lit, try using a different cable to further isolate the problem..
Assigning the Computer a Static IP Address
For instructions on how to assign a static IP address on your computer, click here. After assigning a static IP address, check the computer's connectivity to the range expander.

Windows 2000/XP
Step 1:
Click Start, then click Run.

Step 2:
When the Run window appears, in the Open field type "cmd", then click OK.
Step 3:
When the MS DOS Prompt appears, type "ping 192.168.1.240" then press [Enter].

Step 4:
See if you're getting 4 replies, Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss)

If you're connected to the expander then go start-run type "cmd" and hit enter, then in the black box that opens up type "ipconfig" and hit enter, the line that says default gateway will be the IP address of the expander.
Otherwise there should have been a cd with it that has a utility that scans the network looking for it, I know netgear do one but I'm not sure about Linksys. Let me know how you get on.

just press and hold the reset button till the lights on the front blink to go back to the factory defults.
factory IP address is 192.168.0.30

type that in your browser address bar after you reset the G710

Reset it and reconfigure it. You need to know the configuration of your wireless router to make your range expander work again. Can you still connect to the Internet without the range expander?

Press the RESET button on the back of the unit and reconfigure the settings.

Ok, what you need to do is reset your Linksy wireless connector box, hold button for 30sec. After, you need to try to connent it to your phone and or computer. Try to see if you have a connection.

The password you are referring might be WEP or WPA which assigned by your router. So you need to reset your router not the Wireless adapter. After you reset the router's Network Key (WPA/WEP)
You can reset your Range extender too; Press the Reset button on the back of the Range Expander for about ten seconds. This will reset the unit to its
default settings

Good Luck
