Re: E1700 6rd tunnel configuration via Hurricane Electric responds: Error! 6RD prefix is invalid

Hello Mark,

 

Hurricane Electric provides 6rd tunneling based on your IPv4 address and endpoint location. They provide you with endpoint IP and prefix that you can use. (https://tunnelbroker.net)

I'm affraid that the problem is in javascript validation of given prefix, because the regular expression won't match any variation of prefix IP or endpoint IP (with or without the "::" at the end)


Did you try with the whole IPv6 address without collapsed 0s?


Does EA7500 have wireless bridge function?

$

Hello,

 

I'm in need of buying a router for my desktop, as the WiFi card is old and can only top out at the 300 Mpbs threshold (n mode).  So having an AC1900 router (to be bridged at 5Ghz band, AC1300) set as a wireless bridge would upgrade my desktop's connectivity.  And I've found a good deal on a used EA7500 for this purpose.

 

I've checked the manual and the FAQs, but there's not direct mention of whether the EA7500 supports wireless bridge.  If it does, which of the 3 hardware versions support it?  I've also done a search in this forum.

 

Can someone at Linksys please check your internal DB to see if wireless bridge is indeed supported by the EA7500?

 

Thanks!

Yes it has a Wireless Bridge feature.

Hi @EdouardP.
Unfortunately, the Parental Controls of our home routers are device specific. You'll need to specify the website and block it on each device connected to the network of the Linksys router.

Hi @ryancousins.
This is very odd. As long as you use the correct MAC access for your Apple Computer, it should take the credentials that you configured in the router.


What's the OS version of your Apple Computer? Just to make sure, can you try using another MacBook to check if the same thing happens?


Let us know how it goes.

I'm running MacOS 10.15.5

 

I have access to another MacBook but will have to travel to go get it. But I will give that a shot when I can get to that other machine.

A full two months later, and this isn't fixed? I should not have to go through all of this just to access my router's settings... worse, I don't even remember all of my settings, so resetting the router, and redoing the settings will be extremely difficult!

 

EDit: the linksys app on my phone sees the router. When i try to login, it is stuck on "Getting router settings..."

tried to edit again, but it wouldn't let me.

It is possible to revert to the previous firmware without resetting the router to factory defaults!

Disconnect the router from the internet, and have only one PC hardwired, then power cycle the router. Once you power cycle, try to login, and you should be able to. worked for me to allow me to revert the firmware.

Problem with UNSAFE OpenVPN (again again again... more than three years)

$

With a firmware update at the beginning of this year, I don't understand how you keep DEPRECATED opcoines and UNSAFE settings.

 

Messages:

  • (1) WARNING: --ns-cert-type is DEPRECATED. Use --remote-cert-tls instead
  • (2) WARNING: INSECURE cipher with block size less than 128 bit (64 bit). This allows attacks like SWEET32.Mitigate by using a --cipher with a larger block size (e.g. AES-256-CBC)
  • (3) WARNING: cipher with small block size in use, reducing reneg-bytes to 64MB to mitigate SWEET32 attacks.
  • (4) WARNING: this configuration may cache passwords in memory -- use the auth-nocache option to prevent this

The Deprecated are easy to solve: on the customer side, within the .OVPN we must add:

  • remote-cert-tls (1)
  • auth-nocache (4)

And here comes the problem, I might add on server side:

  • cipher AES-256-CBC (2) (3)

But on the server side and if we want to keep your firmware, we can't do it ourselves and must wait for an update.

 

Can you update it yourselves? Can you fix these OpenVPN features?

 

It's a pity that these efforts are not made in security, with the times we are living and as someone wrote to you a year ago, even a SmartWatch has greater encryption strength.

Re: wrt1900acs very slow

I hope I can help someone because for me it was very frustrating having issues with my wrt1900ac on 2.4 GHz where the download speed degraded to about 25Mbps, on the other hand, the 5GHz download was about 225Mbps. One good thing I got from this forum is after you change any setting, power cycle the router.

After my change to the wifi setting, I accomplished going on the 2.4GHz band from 25Mbps to about 200 Mbps. 

You will need to change both the 2.4Ghz and the 5Ghz setting.

 

2.4 GHz Band:

Security mode: WPA2 Personal

Wi-Fi mode: Mixed

Channel: Auto

Channel width: 20 MHz Only

 

5 GHz Band:

Security mode: WPA2 Personal

Wi-Fi mode: Mixed

Channel: Auto

Channel width: Auto

 

I hope this can work for you.

Hi, @jasoncollege24,

 

Have you tried accessing the router's page using a web browser? Please try to do so we can further isolate. However, if you can't access it using the router's password or LinksysSmart Wi-Fi account then, we need to reset and reconfigure it.

 

Let us know if you need assistance so we can have our Level 2 Support Team walk you through the process. Email us at LinksysCares@linksys.com with the following details:

 

  • Full Name:
  • Phone Number and Location:
  • ISP:
  • Router's Serial Number and Firmware:
  • Model and OS of a computer/laptop used:
  • Link to this Community thread for our perusal:
  • Your Community Alias/Username:

Hi @lover365. May we know how long have you been experiencing this concern? What are the changes made before this happened? Is this true to all devices (wired and wireless)? Let's try the following steps to further isolate the concern: -Check if the modem is getting a stable internet connection by connecting a computer or a laptop. -Reboot the router. -Check if the firmware is updated.

Well, it was operating normally for 2 days; from 28 May to 30 May but it dropped again today. I have sent the email as suggested, hopefully we can work through this puzzling issue. Thanks for all the help!

Linksys EA7500 and XBOX Packet Loss

$

I received a new modem from Spectrum as we upgraded our internet. At the same time we installed the EA7500. Every device in the house works great except for the XBox Live. I am 2 steps from taking the router back to the store. I tried quite a few things and sometimes I can get it to work but sometimes it won't work at all.

 

Here is what I have tried so far. 

 

1. Updated firmware.

2. Called Spectrum to troubleshoot modem - it is fine. 

3. Port forward (Pic 1)

4. Call Linksys in which I give my call back number. They call back but there is only silence on the phone. Did this 3 times. Disappointing to say the least. 

5. Checked UPnP.

6. Set a static IP address for the XBox. (See 2nd pic. I think I did it right.)

 

Anyone have any suggestions? I thought Linksys was a pretty good brand and I am not a heavy gamer but enjoy playing when I can. Thank you for your help.

@Mara_A,

 

Please read my last post. I was able to sucessfully get into my router's page, and revert to the previous firmware.

 

As stated,

1. disconnect the router from the internet.

2. plug one PC directly into a LAN port on the router.

3. power cycle the router.

4. Login with local password.

Great post jasoncollege24 - followed your steps and was able to revert to previous firmware version, reboot, and now UI is responsive again. Linksys needs to acknowledge that this lastest firmware version is the problem.

So thanks to a post on a separate thread by jasoncollege24 I've been able to downgrade to the previous firmware version and the UI is now responsive.

 

1. disconnect the router from the internet.

2. plug one PC directly into a LAN port on the router.

3. power cycle the router.

4. Login with local password.

 

Linksys needs to acknowledge that Ver. 1.0.11.200282 is the problem!
