Had my Linksys N equipment for total of eight days. Connection and speed were no problem but the range was TERRIBLE!

Went back to my WRT54GX4 router and SRX400 card. Speed just as good, and range about twice as good.

Hello,

On one of my wireless networks that I manage I have a Linksys WRT54g router combined with the Linksys wireless access point set up in repeater mode.

My new linksys SRX400 card will connect to the router but not the repeater unless I turn off Windows firewall. I figure it is in the ...

Zporttech

Yes the WZC works very well I will be using it. I didn't know if there was a fix out there somewhere. Linksys did reply with the usual "uninstall/reinstall" canned reply. I like linksys products but their support needs an upgrade!

Zporttech

Hey guys been awhile since I have posted. Just upgraded my wireless equipment. Went with the MIMO LInksys Router and matching card. The range and speed are excellent, blows the regular Router G and card away!

I tried to use the utility that came with the card because I like the looks of it and it ...

Downloaded the drivers and put them in a seperate folder on the XP desktop. But when I go to browse/search for them during install, all I get is an empty folder(?)

Hello,

Attempting to network a Win XP client laptop to a machine running Win98SE. All works great except for the printer. XP sees the printer but will not load it advising "server has wrong driver". I have dealt with this in past, but can`t remember how to fix this.

Little help please.

Hey guys,

Been awhile since I posted anything so I thought I would pass on a little info.

Users of Insight service in the Louisville Ky area, check to see if your modem is DOCSIS 2.0 compatible. I have been having disconnects and slow speeds for a few days. Called Insight, they advised they have ...

Anybody have trouble with HP all-in-one software glitching out with Windows XP Pro? My 2110 "scan button" will not work after a period of time and I have to reinstall the software. Unit will scan if I go into the HP Director. Everything else works great.

Hey guys,

Recentlyput a machine together for a friend of mine. All went well except when they recieve a phone call, it turns the machine on!

Went into BIOS disabled "modem wake on ring" and also checked settings in modem properties.

Working with a Gigabyte board, windows XP Pro, and an internal ...

I would go with ZoneAlarm Pro, or better yet get behind a router.

Zporttech

I have used Linksys for some time now with very few problems.

Zporttech

My suggestion would be to drop the ICS and get yourself a good router. You will find things allot smoother.

Zporttech

Brandon,

That is exactly what what causing the problem. Removed Encarta (which is outdated anyway) and the seperations in the list went away!

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!

Hello all,

Been awhile since I posted but still check in from time to time and read.

Anyway, I just noticed the add/remove program list on two of my XP Pro machines are divided in half with a huge blank area in between. Both machines are using Western Digital 7200 rpm drives with no extra ...

Zporttech

Either will work well, as stated above just make sure you have enough power to run either OS

Zporttech

Hey Stonecat,

Under most conditions I would agree with you 100% ! Even after unchecking all the proper boxes, messenger still runs as a process. (or at least it does on my XP boxes).

Changing the name of the folder stops this until a messenger upgrade occurs, usually through an IE update.

Zporttech

You can also rename the messenger folder and it will stop it from loading. I renamed mine "messengerno"

Zporttech

Skye,

Yeah it stumped me too. Did several days of trial and error.

Didn`t realize you could "flashback" the firmware on the router. Another lesson learned!

Zporttech

Hey guys,

As always, thanks for the help. Fixed the problem today. Contacted Linksys and they suggested to replace the firmware with the original version. Did this and the port 113 problem went away!

Zporttech

OK Skye,

Any idea how to correct the problem with 113 through the router? I have the "Block WAN Request" enabled and the "Remote Admin" disabled.

My router is the Linksys BEFSR41.

Zporttech

Hey guys,

Totally stumped here. Noticed last night 12/19 that after going to GRC and Sygate my port 113 is showing "closed" instead of stealth like all the others.

Have tried everything I know to try, even connected one machine at a time (three running XP Pro) and still no luck. I am behind a ...

Zporttech

Is it possible to use the PS2's USB ports for connecting to Internet via wireless connection?

Zporttech

I use Linksys, works well.

Zporttech

Running W2K Pro on an older Toshiba Satellite. Keep getting system hangs using WPC11 V3 card. Linksys and Toshiba both admit to problem with BIOS and card compatibility. Have latest drivers and BIOS update.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Zporttech

AHH, another fellow Art Bell fan. Open lines tonight!

Zporttech

Actually you have several different options.

1 .Both machines must have a Network card (NIC)
2. You can use what is called a crossover cable to connect the machines thru the network cards. Big disadvantage here is that the machine connected to the Internet connection has to be on.
3. You can get a ...

Zporttech

Fixed it, thanks for reply.

Loaded Nero 5.5.9 for a friend. His burner is a 16X Mitsumi. The program shows a max writing speed of 8X and nowhere to change it.

All works fine, just won`t show max speed, any ideas?

Not sure what MOBO he has, but I do know it is a 1.1gig athlon with 512M Ram and XP Pro.

Zporttech

Next Generation and that hot Deanna Troi !!!!!!!!!!!!

Zporttech

If you are going to reinstall XP use the CD, delete both partitions, make a new one, format and reinstall.

Zporttech

No questions are dumb, it is all part of learning!

Zporttech

Begining to think it is a location problem. I have been using laptop in different locations around the house (and out of house) and have certain areas that work great while others don`t do as well.

Good old line of sight !

As always, thanks to all who replied................

WAP11 and WPC11. All firmware up to date. Not a big problem with disconnects, just seeing if anyone else has any occasionally.

Zporttech

All my components are Linksys, Router,WAP, and PC Card in Laptop.

Really can`t move the WAP around.

Zporttech

Are occasional freezes/disconnects common with wireless LAN's? Using Linksys equipment.

Zporttech

Going wireless for the first time. Going to run a Linksys access point off my router. Any special security settings I need to know?

Speaking of Linksys, Office Depot is discontinuing the Linksys line of products. Watch for good buys.

Zporttech

If it doesn`t boot automatically you might check the boot order in your BIOS.

Zporttech

Couldn`t make it without my Benchmade and my Kabar !

Zporttech

Jusr recently added SP3 to one of my 2000 machines, no problems with registration issues.

Zporttech

Thanks Norm, I was due for a cleanup anyway.
