How should I configure my linksys usb wireless adapter to connect to a belkin router?

Jul 16, 2007 by seventhyearfalling | Posted in Computer Networking

Hi!
I try to connect my Linksys Wireless USB Adapter (WUSB54G SpeedBooster model) to my Belkin router. It connects but tends to disconnect quickly enough once I start surfing the net or download. I think the settings on my Linksys may be different from my router. How do I configure my Linksys adapter (fragmentation threshold, channel, etc.) to match the default settings on a Belkin router? Any suggestions on how to maintain the link? Thank you!

PS: Does anyone know the default settings for a Belkin router?
Thank you for the info but to clarify that I want to know what settings I need to match between the adapter and the router, either - fragmentation threshold, channel, ect. or if there is another reason why it would disconnect. I-do-security center windows have reduced mobility. Could it be?

On the router there is a reset button on the router, hold it for about 30 seconds still connected to the reset to factory settings.


As for the wireless card, once the router is reset it should just connect automatically unless the router is security enabled by default.

Netgear N750 wireless router review: 5GHz for the win

22.06.11

The N750 Wireless Dual-Band WNDR4000 is the first true dual-band router from Netgear that offers the new 450Mbps speed on the 5GHz band. This means it competes directly with Cisco's Linksys E4200 , which was released a while ago.

Apart from the guest networking feature, which lets you create separate Internet-only wireless networks for guests, the Netgear seems to trail behind the E4200 on almost all other counts. It's in no way a bad router, however.

As a matter of fact, it topped the chart on the 2.4GHz band in our close-range throughput test, registering a sustained real-world speed of 67.8Mbps. Unfortunately, on this same band, which is currently still the most popularly used, the throughput degrades very quickly as the range increases. In our trials, at 100 feet away the router registered only 23.9Mbps, the biggest drop we've seen.

On the 5GHz band, the router's performance was more consistent, but though it was very fast it was noticeably slower than the E4200. Like all routers with an USB port, the N750's built-in storage network, though well designed, didn't impress us with its throghput performance, even when used via Gigabit Ethernet.

How Can I Get My Linksys Router To Work Correctly? - Find Answers ...

The router is a WRT54G V1 linksys wireless router. It is connected to a cable modem that I know is working correctly. I know this because my wife's computer is hardwired to the router and she can access the Internet. At the computer end I have a Linksys compact wireless USB adapter. I know that I have everything setup correctly because it was working correctly and sometimes intermittently works. But most of the time it will not connect to the Internet. The error message that I get is: "You are successfully connected to the access point but the Internet can not be found. Any ideas?
