14. Why can't my wireless client detect the 5 GHz network name after I configured the router’s

5 GHz band to use a fixed channel?

If you have configured your router to use a fixed channel other than Auto and your wireless device

does not detect the 5 GHz network name, it’s possible your wireless device does not support DFS

channels. You can contact the manufacturer of your device to confirm if your wireless device

supports DFS. You can also change the channel on the router to use a non-DFS channel or

Auto. Channels 52-64 and Channels 100-140 are DFS channels.

NOTE: In addition, your wireless client must be a Dual-Band client in order to connect to the 5 GHz

band.

15. My wireless clients connected to the 5 GHz network are disconnecting and reconnecting

usually lasting about one (1) minute of disconnect time. Why is this happening?

If you have configured the 5 GHz wireless network to use a fixed wireless channel, other than Auto,

you have selected a DFS channel. When your router is configured to use a fixed DFS channel, the

router needs to adjust to a new channel if a radar system is detected as this can cause interference

with the radar. During this one minute disconnection, the router will scan for the next best channel to

use and the 5 GHz wireless clients will disconnect for one (1) minute and reconnect again once the

router has selected another channel to prevent interference with the radar system. If you want to

change this, simply choose a non-DFS channel or set it to Auto.

NOTE: DFS channels are Channels 52-64 and Channels 100-140, you can use any other channels

beside these.

ADVANCED CONFIGURATION

1. What is a media server, and how does it work?

6. What is Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), and what is it used for?

The DMZ screen allows one (1) local user to be exposed to the Internet for a special-purpose

service such as Internet gaming and videoconferencing. DMZ hosting forwards all the ports at the

same time to one (1) computer. Port Forwarding is more secure because it only opens the ports you

want to open.

TROUBLESHOOTING

1. How can I reset the Linksys WRT3200ACM to factory defaults?

There are two (2) ways to reset the Linksys WRT3200ACM to factory defaults:

Hardware Reset –Press and hold the Reset button at the back panel of the Linksys

WRT3200ACM for about 10 seconds then release.

Software Reset –Log in to your Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Account. Under Router Settings,

click Troubleshooting > Diagnostics. Click Reset under Factory reset.

2. I have reset the Linksys WRT3200ACM and now I can’t launch the setup page. What do I

do?

You can try the following troubleshooting steps:

Step 1:

Enter “myrouter.local” or “192.168.1.1” in a web browser.

Step 2:

If your computer has a static IP Address, make sure it has valid DNS numbers. If not, set the

computer to obtain an IP Address automatically.

Step 3:

Try again then, if needed, reassign a static IP Address back to the computer.

3. What should I do if I can't connect to the Internet wirelessly, and my network name is not

listed in the Available Networks?

Try to perform the following steps to resolve the issue:

Verify that your router is ON, and the Power LED is solidly lit.

If you are far from the router, you might try moving closer to make sure that your device is

within the wireless network range.

Using a computer attached to the router via a network cable, open the router's web-based

setup page by entering “myrouter.local” or “http://192.168.1.1”. Go to Wireless > Broadcast

SSID and make sure that it is set to Yes for both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.

4. What should I do when my wireless network performance is slow, inconsistent, suffering

from weak signal, or having difficulty maintaining a VPN connection?

Wireless technology uses radio frequency as a medium to connect devices. This means that

connectivity and the throughput performance between devices decreases when the distance

between devices increases.

Other factors that will cause signal degradation are the following:

Obstructions such as walls, fixtures, furniture and metal appliances

Wireless signal interference caused by other wireless networks using the same frequency,

baby monitors, microwave ovens, etc.

NOTE: Connection speed may decrease as you move farther away from the router.

Troubleshooting Tips:

In order to determine if wireless issues are related to distance, it is recommended to

temporarily move the computer within 10 feet from the router if possible.

You may also change the wireless channel of your router. This will resolve issues of

wireless interference to improve the performance and reliability of your network.

5. My Parental Controls feature blocks HTTPS but returns a blank page instead of redirecting

to the Parental Controls screen. Is this a normal behavior?

Yes, for HTTPS this is by design. Website addresses starting with https:// can be blocked, but

because they have encryption, Linksys Smart Wi-Fi cannot redirect you. Instead of a page telling

you the address has been blocked, you will see a browser error page.
