Getting disconnected from wireless router (Media Link)

http://serverfault.com – I get disconnected from my wireless router a couple times a day. If I wait 5 or 10 minutes I can get reconnected without restarting the router, then after reconnecting it can take a few minutes until I have internet access. My previous router I would always stay connected but would sometimes need to restart it in order for the internet to work again (reason for the new router). Does this sound like an issue with my modem, my router, or my machine? My new router is a media link and is setup with the following settings. (HowTos)

have a DSL modem setup with 192.168.1.1 local IP. Everything working fine. Then have a linksys wireless router that I have connected to the DSL modem. I have enabled DHCP on the wireless router, and have assigned 192.168.107.1 IP address to this router, with 255.255.255.0 as the mask.

So the setup looks like this:

There is a main WLAN-router/modem which is connected to the internet and serves the lower floor with WLAN. Now upstairs I have a second WLAN-router/modem (I will call it router two from now on). A normal ethernet cable is plugged in in router two in one of the four ethernet ports and also in one of the four ethernet ports in router one.

Wireless router for home use. 41 weeks 21 hours ago

Hi all,

I'm prepared to set up a 2nd network using wireless router, to be connected to a wire modem which is supplied by ISP, There is already a wire router connected to the said modem, also supplied by ISP.

Internet connection 4MB/4MB DSL, up and down Static IP

One PC is located at about 2 feet from the wireless router, the former on table top and latter under table.

Hi, I am new to ubuntu and having problems getting connected to the internet. My internet works fine if I plug directly into the modem, but if I go through the router either using ethernet or wireless it doesn't work. I can access the router perfectly when using wireless and change settings and all that but cant access the internet.

I just bought a TRENDNET TDM C4000 (=modem/ wiredrouter) and got it working. If I connect my computer with through the ethernet port directly, the internet will work. However, when I try connecting the ends of the ethernet cable on the modem and my wireless router, it's not transmitting. I know I set up the wireless router correctly because it worked with my previous modem.

I'm prepared to set up an addional network

I have a router that is connected to the internet. To that router we connect via LAN and WAN. WAN settings are up, router user/pass, router access is secured with WPA/WPA-2. I want to make some computers, to be connected to the router (lan or wan) and will be protected from the outside world.

What is the best way doing so ?

I have a 'main' router that receives the internet signal from the ISP and another one in my room, connected with a cable. The main router is running its original firmware and is very limited in its features, unfortunately I can not change this router, since my phone company has some hardcoded stuff in there and the internet will only work with this router.

I recently purchased a TP-link TL MR3040 wireless router to use with my existing ZTE MF112 3G wireless modem USB stick. However, despite many hours tinkering, I haven't yet been able to get this configuration to work.
