ACTIONTEC ROUTER ETHERNET STATUS PASSWORD
ACTIONTEC ROUTER ETHERNET STATUS FREE

A red light indicates some sort of PPPoE issue (ie: authentication). When the Internet light glows steadily, the Modem is connected to the DSL provider. When it flashes, the Modem's built-in DSL modem is training for the DSL service. The DSL light illuminates when the Modem is connected to a DSL line and the unit is able to synchronize to the DSL signal from the ISP. If the Power light glows red when the Power cord is plugged in, the Modem has suffered a critical error and technical support should be contacted. When the Power light is rapidly flashing, the Modem is initializing. If the Power light glows steadily green, the Modem is receiving power and fully operational. Plug the wire from the Actiontec router into one of the Linksys's LAN ports - the WAN port (the one that looks a bit different) should be empty! Power the Actiontec back on.The Power light displays the Modem's current status. You're almost done - save your settings, and unplug yourself from the Linksys. While you're here, set the wireless channel to something that's at least 3-4 channels away from whatever the Actiontec is set to (this step is less important - you just don't want them to directly clash). Set the Linksys up to match, and use the same key.

Like I said before, you're almost definitely using a 40/64-bit WEP Password on the Actiontec side. Open up the wireless settings, set the SSID to HPU15, and make sure the wireless security settings match between the two routers. Open up 192.168.1.1 in a web browser, and use the default login (no username, pw = admin) Set the Linksys's 'Router IP Address' to 192.168.1.254, and disable the DHCP server. Connect your computer directly to one of the router's LAN ports (read: no wireless yet). Now, unplug the Actiontec router from its power, plug the Linksys in, and hold down the reset button for a good 30-45 seconds to make SURE you've wiped it clean, and reset it to its defaults. While you're here, try to figure out which Wireless channel the router is using, and make a note of it. Also, look on the router's front page, and make sure that none of your devices are currently using the address 192.168.1.254. Unplug the linksys router from its power, and make sure everything is working A-OK with the Actiontec router. Just typed a huge comment and closed the window before posting. Posted by cg1 at 12:49 PM on October 4, 2010ДЄgh. this sharing of the IP brought my internet down for the whole house, so i just unplugged the linksys router all together to get it back up - and changed the actiontec ip back to. the problem continued, however sometimes 192.168.1.1 brought up the linksys page (which i can't log into), and sometimes the actiontec page still comes up.

In an attempt to solve the problem, i went into the actiontec control panel and changed the IP type to static, and set to 192.168.2.1 - in hopes that it would free up the linksys' default IP so I could get in. neither does a dozen different variations on it. On the rare ocassion that it takes me to the linksys router control panel, the generic linksys default password ( / admin) doesn't work. sometimes, takes me to the generic actiontec router, and sometimes it takes me to the linksys router. it seems that now the linksys router is trying to use the same ip as the actiontec router. so i ended up resetting the router, to reset the password, and now my whole network is all screwed up. i went tried to go in and add a password to the wifi signal, but the router kept asking me for a login and the one i have written down wouldn't work. Response by poster: i took dozo's advice and found it using the ip scanner (it was at ). I tried plugging a hard cable into the 2nd (Downstairs) router, but still can't seem to access its control panel to password protect it.ДЄnybody know how I might accomplish this? posted by cg1 to Computers & Internet (11 answers total) 1 user marked this as a favorite I try to get into the settings, but when I put into my browser url, it sends me to the generic Verizon page - which I think is only operating the upstairs network. I've recently realized that several people are piggybacking on the unprotected downstairs network and want to password protect it. At the time, I tried to name the wireless network created by the 2nd router the same as the 1st router, but it wouldn't work - so I setup a 'Downstairs' network and didn't password protect. I have a crappy wireless router on the 2nd floor (the one that Verizon DSL provides for free), and ran a hard line from it through the wall to the 1st floor, where I setup the 2nd router. A couple of years ago, I setup a 2nd wireless router on the 1st floor of my house to boost the wifi signal down there.
