Thread: Wi-Fi Connectivity problem with WA3002 G4

Hello,

I have WA3002 G4 configured as ALWAYS ON on my Laptop which has Vista Home Premium loaded (which is skimmed using vLite)

- From the default settings, I have only changed the default username and password in the Advance settings and left everything else is unaltered.
I have open dns addresses entered. These are: 208.67.222.222 &208.67.220.220
- In the wireless settings. I have changed the SSID, and 'hidden' the broadcast. I have used WPA2-Personal w/ TKIP and set the re-key interval to 100. All the rest is unaltered
- In Access control, I have enabled ALL the services, changed the passwords for admin, support & user

The modem boots up and connects to the internet and there seems to be NO problems with modem connectivity to the internet and wired (ethernet cable) connectivity to the laptop.
The problem is with wireless connectivity.
It is never consistant. It sometimes starts connected, sometimes takes 5mins to connect and sometimes needs nothing short of re-boot. I can browse the net at great to poor speeds whenever it is connected. The connectivity lasts from 2 min to whatever time. Most of the time it disconnects with "Limited Connectivity" message or the wi-fi simply disconnects and stays that way.

Why is this inconsistancy in wireless setup? Am I missing a trick?
Any thoughts and inputs are welcome. Do let me know if you need any further inputs to help me.

Thanks in advance and regards,

Ravindra.

I am also facing the same problem..

my modem type is WA3002G4..
If it is popoe connection, wireless connects to interne, and gets disconnected in 2 minutes.. needs re-boot..

Any help will be greatly appreciated..

If your OS is Vista, downgrade the TCP/IP protocol to IPv4 (default is IPv6 for Vista). I do not have Vista and so I do not have an exact idea how to do this.

Hi Guys,

Just hard code the ip address (something like 192.168.1.40) along with gateway and dns on your TCP/IP 4 settings.

You should be browsing in no time.

Thanks and let me know if it worked or not.

@netitude.
Kindly post the screen shot of the setting, if you have Vista,

@deepmohan
Thanks for the screen shots. Mine ; xp sp3 mostly similar. .

Problem is: this is a very old thread, and
member @netitude decides to give a "quick fix"
opening an old thread.
moderator/s @ admin will not lock old threads like this ,and
we are all posting in "Space" to no one in particular.

Hope to meet you again here same thread next year !
