Cisco E1000

[Kanisha Dezarn]

Ihave a Linksys e1000 with the v2.1 firmware installed on it. I read the quick start guide and the install instructions provided from the e1000 page. I have the correct Firmware OpenWrt Install for version 18.06.1. Just for precaution I reset the router to factory default, go to the firmware upgrade page and select the downloaded file. The progress bar goes to 4% then the router reboots and displays a "Firmware Upgrade Failed" message.

NOTE: 17.01.6 too large for Cisco Valet M10/Linksys E1000. Appears a JTAG would be needed - as TFTP doesn't appear properly configured from OEM. Haven't had success escaping/pausing the bootloader's sequence, either.

Cisco has launched new software for its new Linksys E series and Cisco Valet routers such as Linksys E1000, E2000, E3000, E4200 which is also known as Cisco connect software. Cisco connect software will make your network setup very easy. It can transform anyone into networking expert and it will make Linksys router setup easy and comfortable.

It is recommended that you should change the basic wireless settings using the Cisco connect software and not the router web based utility. If you change the security settings using web based utility then the software will no longer work. Also the Cisco connect software is not compatible with WEP security settings.

You can setup Linksys E1000 router without the Cisco connect software also. You just need to open the Linksys router setup page and change the settings manually. Setup page is the page where you can change the settings of the router manually.

Make sure that you are connecting the computer to one of the Ethernet ports on the router and not to the Internet port. The modem should be connected to the Internet port. If you connect the computer to the Internet port on the router, then it will not get IP address from the router and you will not be able to configure it.

Change the Internet connection settings so that your main computer will be able to access the Internet. If you are using Cable Internet service then you will need to clone the MAC address of the main computer. If you are using DSL Internet service then you will have to change the PPPoE settings.

You can setup your Linksys E1000 router without connecting the computer with an Ethernet cable. Reset it to the factory default settings. Now, search for the wireless network on your wireless computer. You will see your wireless network name as ciscoABCDE where A, B, C, D, E will be the last 5 digits of the serial number on your router. Check the last 5 digits of the serial number serial number at the bottom of your router. Connect to that wireless network. The default password for that network will be password . Once you connect to the wireless network, you can set up your router. Again you can run the CD.

If you reset the router to factory default settings then the Linksys E1000 default password will be admin. But if you ran the CD and installed the Cisco connect software then your wireless network key will be the password to access the Linksys E1000 setup page. You can use the same network key to access the router setup page.

To find the Cisco connect guest password, you will need to open the cisco connect software. You can not install guest network without installing cisco software. Open Cisco connect software and go Guest network settings. There you will find the cisco connect guest password.

If you are facing connection dropping issues then I will suggest you to upgrade the firmware. Download the latest firmware from Linksys website and upgrade it. After upgrading the firmware, reset the router and reconfigure it from the start.

Linksys E1000 Cisco connect software is not working.

I tried installing it manually and it did work But I want cisco connect software installed on the main computer so that I do not need to open the setup and change the settings manually.

I am having hard time setting up my E1000.

I can connect the computer directly to the modem and it works well. I have verizon DSL. When I connect the modem to the router and computer to the Ethernet port, it does not work. I tried changing the LAN IP address of E1000 and also tried PPPoE setting but nothing works. I did it manually as well as using Cisco connect software.

I just bough E1000 from one of my friends. he was using it for more than a year. I installed it without any problem (using Cisco software). Got my one wired and 1 wireless laptop online. Only problem is with the Guest access. I tried to get on the Internet with this Guest network but no luck. My laptop is not getting IP address when connected to the guest. My friend also tried but he was also not getting Internet. What IP address can I assign manually? Will that work? Firmware is already upgraded.

I can not access Internet through the router. When I connect the computer to the modem, it works. But if I connect it through the router, it does not work. I tried to run Cisco connect software but that also fails and says router not found. If I reset the router, I will lose all the network settings which were installed before. How can I get it working.

The guest network password is not working. I am trying to connect to the guest network. I can join the guest access and it asks me for the guest password also but when I type the number, I can not get on the Internet. I know the security code is correct.

Looking for guest network password. I am trying to connect my friends laptop to access the Internet. He can see my unsecured guest connection and he can join also. But when he tries to open the Internet browser, it requires guest password. I entered the correct guest password which I think is, but still it is not working.

I am really very happy to get my e1000 router up and running. I had lot of issues with the setup. Also the manual was not useful at all. I was not even able to open the settings page using the manual. Thanks for your guide. I upgraded the firmware and also reconfigured it manually. It was a very good experience for me.

Thanks for the help. Your guide is very helpful for Linksys E1000 manual setup. I was able to reinstall it without cisco connect software. Actually I pressed the reset button on the router to find Linksys E1000 default password. I tried to run installation CD but that did not help me cisco connect guest password setup. Finally I just changed the settings manually.

What is Linksys E1000 default password?

I installed the router using the software and I can not find the option to open the software program on my main computer. How can I check the password?

Or do I need to reset it and re-install ?

The Linksys E1000 default password is admin. But if you have used CD to setup then default password must be different. You can open the software and check the password settings. Same information is given in Linksys E1000 manual.

I was trying Linksys E1000 setup using software CD. The software did not help me setup my wireless router. That is why I opened the E1000 setup page and changed the settings manually. Now I can access Internet on all my laptops but without guest network access. There is no option to change the settings for Guest password using web interface of E1000. Is there a proper Linksys E1000 manual ?
