<title>Which Linksys WRT54 router to get?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23277207</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hi! 

My old wired Linksys BEFSX41 v1 router died and I had to use my older Netgear RT311 router to use the Internet. I am looking for a new router from a local retail store (Best Buy, Fry's, Office Max, Staples, etc.) to buy tomorrow night. I heard many positive comments on WRT54. Any good one to get? I don't need speed and will still use an old Linksys WAP11 (connected) because some old wireless devices and computers do not have anything higher than WEP (yes, I know it is easily crackable). 

Any good ones from http://www.salescircular.com/ca/computer/wrlsnp.shtml ?

Thank you in advance. :)]]></description>

<title>Best router which can handle 50Mbps with and with 50 users</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23303771</link>
<description><![CDATA[Any suggestions? Im looking for a solid router which can handle traffic from 50 users at once, and deliver speeds of wan-to-lan of 50mbs. I read throught many of the router reviews on this site, but im confused about the "Max connections" part... does it mean the number of users at once?

Anyways, any personal experience or suggestions.

Do you guys think that the Linksys WRT310N can handle?

Also, if I had a setup where all the users were connected to another gateway before it reached the router... would that put less burden on the router. I was thinking of an Untangle Gateway. Would the router be able to handle that much traffic?]]></description>

<title>[Wired] BEFSX41: Firewall limits speed</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23256838</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hello, I have a BEFSX41 with firmware version 1.52.10.

Recently my ISP upgraded my internet connection from 10Mbit to 20Mbit, but I've never been able to get a higher speed than 13.5Mbit. After some tests I found out that the firewall of the router is the problem. When I turn the firewall off, I do get the full 20Mbit.

Is there anything I can do, besides buying a new router, to keep the firewall enabled and also get the full 20Mbit?

Thank you.]]></description>

<title>[Wired] Linksys RV016 - making it pingable</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23291028</link>
<description><![CDATA[Try as I might, I have not been able to make my RV016 pingable from the internet.  I have joined the DSLReports Line Monitors groups for OOL and FIOS, but the monitors are not able to ping my router.

I have added an Access Rule to the router firewall to Allow Ping[0] on all interfaces from Any source to Any destination Anytime with Priority 1.  This did not fix it.

I set Block WAN Request to Disable.  This did not fix it (I changed it back to enable out of caution)

I've done a web search for solutions to no avail.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

<title>[Wireless] UDP // subnet mask issue</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23282568</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone,
this is quite urgent.

I have Windows 7 installed on this laptop and everytime this laptop is on, it will freeze/hang my two desktops.

Event ID: 8003
Source: Browser

Description: The master browser has received a server announcement from the computer  that believes that it is the master browser for the domain on transport . The master browser is stopping or an election is being forced. 

The best I can find to resolve the issue is from this link.
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;135464

To stop the 8003 error messages, make sure the routers on the network are not forwarding UDP broadcasts, keeping browser elections on NetBT local to each subnet and enable WINS or lmhosts on the network for netbios name resolution. 

Note Switches that are configured for VLAN's (virtual segmentation) have to be configured on a per VLAN basis to prevent UDP broadcast propagation. 

----

Another resolution was:
To correct this problem, change the TCP/IP protocol configuration to the correct subnet mask.
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...kb;en-us;143153

However, I have no idea what that means or what to do on my router to resolve the issue.
I am running Tomato 1.25.
Please help me.
Thanks a lot. ]]></description>

<title>[Wireless] WRT54G v6.0 FW v1.0 as a repeater?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23196662</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have been reading some of the many post on how to setup
an extra router as a repeater to extend the range of my wireless signal. It seems to me that it is a very time consuming
process, requiring access to both routers via different PC's.

Is there a simple way to do this or am I in for a chore?
The distance between my PC and my host router is considerable, around 100' give or take. I was getting around (5 - 10Mbps) with very low signal strength. I was able to increase that to between 18 & 24Mbps after I added the 
Super Cantenna 12dbi WiFi antenna to my PCI NIC. But still not enough to web cam @ 30fps Any ideas will be most welcome!

Config:

Host router = WRT54G v2.0 (Tomato firmware v1.25 @ max power output w/duel higain 7dbi antennas)

Internet = DSL @ 1500/512

Client router = WRT54G v6.0 (Linksys firmware v1.0)

TIA slo-motion!

<title>[Wireless] Getting same IP range?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23286646</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hello to all, 

How to set up my Wlan if :

ZTE 3G Modem(no DHCP): 192.168.0.1
Linksys BEFSR41 V3 router : 192.168.1.1
Linksys AP WAP54G Rev. 2 : 192.168.0.245 (static IP (if I set it to DHCP I can't access the AP))

Laptop Static IP : 192.168.1.100
Subnet : 255.255.255.0
Gateway : 192.168.1.1
DNS : 192.168.0.1

Problem is that I have to change my laptop's IP to static from DHCP, and from 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.0.100, in order to access the AP's setup every time I need to change something. Accessing the router goes fine without changing anything.

The modem's IP can't be change and when I tried changing the Router's IP to 192.168.0.2 then I could no longer gain access(not even wired) and had to reset the router and start over. Same thing happened when trying to get the AP on the same IP range as the router.

Otherwise its working, but I would like to have it all on the same IP range, meaning 192.168.0.x, since the modem can't be changed.

I added screenshot's of the AP and Router.

Anyone got a suggestion:)

<title>[Tomato] Farmville Intervention with WRT54GL + Tomato</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23267173</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have a 'friend' that is spending way too much time on FarmVille on Facebook. I'd like to see if I can quantify how much time they are spending on it before I decide if I need to intervene (otherwise they will just deny their addiction).

I am currently running Tomato on the WRT54GL. To log the activity, I should set up CIFS, correct?

Is there a way to filter what gets logged so that only this traffic gets logged?

What do the FarmVille requests look like for me to filter?

I'm not at home right now so I can't fiddle with Tomato to see how and what CIFS logging works. Nor do I play FarmVille so I don't have an easy way to set up something (Fiddler, WireShark, etc.) to see what the traffic looks like.

Thanks!]]></description>
