Timemachinereaders with an X in the product name (Eg. Pro XWR, Club XR, etc) have a built in network router.

It is important to check this router is running the latest firmware, to ensure that network communications with your reader are not lost.


I have an issue where clients connecting on the 2.4Ghz band can't see the internet. In particular I have a Sony vaio that connects, receives an IP and cant see internet. It's an old laptop. 5Ghz band is functioning correctly for other devices. Any help on this would be appreciated. Wondering if theres any legacy setting that I'm missing.


The configuration checks out, though we have seen issues with wireless clients and mix-mode encryption, which both WLANs have enabled. Not sure what the legacy 2.4GHz clients support, but if everything supports WPA2/CCMP/AES, I would configure encryption type as "encryption-type ccmp". If the legacy wireless clients only support WPA (TKIP), which has been long deprecated, I would modify the 2.4GHz WLAN with the following:


I also see that Smart-rf is being utilized for channel/power. Smart-rf only works with 3 or more APs in the environment and highly recommend statically assigning channel/power to the radios based on what is around the AP (use a freeware scan tool to see channels and power of neighboring APs).


If the problem is happening for only some clients, I would check the DHCP lease values and confirm that everything is there. If it is, then can you PING the default route/gateway? If not, can you even PING some other IP address on the same VLAN?


The recommendation to exclude mixed CCMP/TKIP encryption is good advice. It's the only issue I noticed in the config as well. If none of your clients REQUIRE TKIP, don't have it enabled in the config. Even if this is not the issue, it's still best to just use CCMP alone for various reasons.


Yes Chris it was for all 2.4GHz clients. Just updated to latest 7.9 WiNG firmware. All loaded great and now the AP won't boot into standalone mode from GUI. WING manager blank screen and also won't work in chrome. however i can ssh and use a serial connection. Not sure if its a firmware issue or me just not being proficient on CLI. All looks good and shows the correct firmware loading. I'm gonna try and reload firmware again but need to change interface to a static IP form DHCP (can you help me with how to enter this on CLI). This way I can connect directly to laptop to perform firmware change (only way i can get tftp to work)


For the sake of clarity I will call the router which as Internet connection (WAN) as the mainRouter and the old router which I want to use as a repeater as the the secondRouter.


The problem that i have is that the secondRouter does not have access to the internet. When I connect to the secondRouter it says "connected,No internet".I have tried connecting to it using my phone as well still get the same thing.


According to the manual for the second device: iB-WRX150NE,it does not have a repeater mode. It can act in Wireless Router mode or Wireless Client Router mode. The Wireless Client Router mode allows you to connect wired clients using this router as a bridge to the other wireless network. It cannot wirelessly provide access and also act as a bridge.


While this router seems to be decent, I am thinking that it does not support this feature. If none of the suggested fixes work you can try flashing it with DD-WRT. I did not see the device as being supported on this site:


The actual manufacturer of the device or the firmware may be different than the outside branding. I have done this many times and there are numerous posts on how to configure it. It may be a little much at first, but it becomes easy.


I've been running into issues getting devices connected to the 2.4 GHz band of my router (TP-Link Archer C7). Note that 5 GHz works fine, no issues at all.Devices in question include Lenovo Y500 laptop, iPhone 6S+, Lenovo Android tablet.


I've tried adjusting the channel for the 2.4 GHz band, changing passwords and SSIDs, upgrading router firmware, router factory reset, all to no avail.Something weird that I'm noticing is that when I try to connect to the default SSID (TP-LINK_FB60) on my iPhone it has two separate behaviors:


Enter correct password: Popup says "Unable to connect to TP-LINK_FB60", then after tapping confirm another popup says "Unable to connect to LAN Before Time 2" (that was my SSID before running into troubles and resetting to factory). Why would it do this? Does it recognize the router and remember past SSIDs despite it changing?


So there's definitely some sort of conflict going on with the iPhone at least.For the laptop I've tried making it forget the past SSIDs, ipconfig /flushdns, /release, /renew. It can connect for short periods of time (


This is odd to me, that several makes and models of devices would have this issue with that particular band of WiFi. Furthermore, this is the second replacement router after the original failed. The last one was a refurbed Linksys E4500 which had the same issue I have now (I assumed it was the router's problem).


I live in an apartment building so I'm guess there's some serious interference going on, especially if I try to span 40 MHz in the 2.4 GHz band. Using 20 MHz I no longer have dropping connections (so far anyway), and devices that couldn't connect at all before are able to now.


This might sound silly, and I'm almost positive it's NOT this, but it's worth checking....Log in to your router and make sure that DHCP is enabled. It might also be worth checking if new devices are allowed to connect without you having to enter their MAC Address to the list, (I currently do this, keeps the neighbours from trying to piggy back on my network).


I don't mean to imply anything about your intelligence, it's something really easy and simple but most people who know quite a bit about computers will overlook those settings, thinking, "it's something I can't figure out. It must be REALLY complicated, then!!", even doing this for days, and then there's a moment of clarity when they go through the router page by page by page......and all their family members suddenly hear the sound of an open palm slapping the computer user's own forehead, and once again all is right with the world.


Like I said, probably not that, but worth a look, just in case. It might also be worth turning off DHCP, (if it's not already off), and giving all the devices a manual LAN IP so there's no clashing of addresses.


It is a drastic type of router reset, which is commonly used when administrators have forgotten the password or keys. Hence, they are willing to start over with fresh settings to fix your broadband connection.


In that case, a hard reset is the best possible solution as it removes all customizations including passwords, usernames, security keys, port forward settings, and custom DNS servers. However, it does not remove or revert the currently installed version of router firmware.


When troubleshooting internet connectivity issues at home, it helps to reset the connection between the modem and router. This may only involve removing the physical connection between the two, not manipulating the software, or disabling the power.


To sum up, if trying the above-mentioned wifi router configuration methods does not fix the issue, it indicates a problem with your router. Therefore, you cannot configure router anymore. In that case, the only thing left to do here is to replace the router with a better one from a leading Internet Service Provider (ISP) like Airtel. Hurry!


I have a router at my place which has public ip on it wan port. When i try to ping my public ip from other country or from my phone(via phone internet) i am unable to ping it. But when i ping my ip from my neighbors network i am able to do so. What i can figure out is my router is responding to pings. but i am not sure when i am pinging from other networks i am not able to ping it.


Between your router and the internet, there is likely a device your ISP refers to as a modem. Those devices are usually routers running NAT and some sort of firewall. Unless it is setup as a network bridge then that is the device systems on the internet will be trying to ping.


The first thing that I would like to know is if there is any firewall on

your network? If the said router is behind a firewall or proxy server, you

may not be able to access the said router from another network.

Please confirm this.


The Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is a supporting protocol in the Internet protocol suite. It is used by network devices, including routers, to send error messages and operational information indicating success or failure when communicating with another IP address, for example, an error is indicated when a requested service is not available or that a host or router could not be reached. ICMP differs from transport protocols such as TCP and UDP in that it is not typically used to exc IC...


In order to make any sort of rational guess as to the source of the problem it would be best to share the router make/model/firmware, router ICMP echo request response settings, your WAN connection type, and the IP range of you and your neighbors network.
