View Full Version : WLAN Default router incorrect

I'm using the 770 with a WRT54g running SVEASOFT firmware. WPA-PSK is enabled on the router along with MAC filtering, it's also subnetted.

When the 770 connects, it gets an IP address (192.168.1.152) and the correct Netmask 255.255.255.240 but for the Default router it lists 255.255.255.127 instead of the correct 192.168.200.145.

What's up with this? And how do I correct this? It works beautifully with my WRT54g at home, but I haven't subnetted that, nor enabled WPA-PSK.

Any fixes?

Thanks,
jacques

jacques-

I can't help you here, sorry - I don't know much about networking, sorry- but I noticed that when I'm connected to my linksys WRT54GX4 I get an IP address of 192.168.1.x and a gateway of 192.168.1.1 (which is correct).

This is as reported by /sbin/route (I'm not sure how I should be finding the gateway on the 770).

So... at least in a simple configuration, it just works. Sorry that doesn't help.

Brad.

I think you offered your own solution. Too many things that are different. Try relaxing WPA. First connect without all that. If you can't admin the AP, you need to ask your IT people.

Some longer key lengths are not supported on the 770 as well. Does a working connection to the AP include proxy settings?

MAC filtering also will sometimes allow lower-case alpha for input, but will not work. Look at the already allowed MAC's: if they have a different format, type your MAC as the others are shown.
