Bt Home Hub can I connect?

Can I and how do I connect to BT Home Hub with my Laptop when it is one of the available connections when working away from home, It normaly asks for a Password.

Unless they take their security key off which, in my view i don't see ANYONE Doing that. they might of if they don't have a key on their hub, so they are mad

BT home hub 4 wireless connection issue on the Xbo...

Hi all,
It has been flagged to us that there may be an issue when connecting an Xbox 360 to the new BT home hub 4.
As many of you are aware the new BT home hub 4 has dual wireless bands broadcasting in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz range.
It seems that when connecting an Xbox 360 wirelessly to the hub 4, the Xbox will state that there is an error, like the one below.
“There is more than one network in range that has this SSID, please change your router SSID before proceeding”
This issue seems to be due to the fact then when the Xbox scans for the available wireless networks, it sees both SSID's and insists that one of them must be changed in case of a conflict.
This is an Xbox 360 issue and not a hub 4 problem
When Xbox 360 was released some 8 years ago dual band routers were very uncommon; so the Xbox has not been setup to deal with this type of connection.
To correct this issue we have some steps that you can follow so that you can connect to the hub. You will need to log into the BT home hub manager and change the SSID on the 5 GHZ band being broadcasted from the hub.
Steps to do this are as follows…….
Log in to the Hub 4 in the normal manner setting up a new password or using the custom password that has been setup by the customer then navigate to the Advanced Settings
Then select continue to advanced setting
Then select wireless
Then select 5GHZ
After that you will need to change Sync with 2.4 from yes to NO
After this has been done you will then be able to change the SSID of the 5GZ band adding a number or a letter to the end
After all this has been done you will then need to click apply to save the changes
You will now be able to connect the Xbox in the normal way using the default wireless key

Try changing the wireless channel in the hub. Enter 192.168.1.254 then go to wireless switch to manual and try another channel. You can try downloading inssider3 which will show netwrorks and their channels round about you

Home Hub 3 - losing connection to certain devices

Hi, I've just upgraded to Infinity to try to improve the poor download speeds and regular loss of broadband I was getting on the old BT copper wire service. This included an upgrade from the Home Hub 2 to the Home Hub 3. Early results on the speed are good - typically download speeds are up to 25mb and upload has improved to around 8mb (from less than 3.5mb and 650kbs). However, I'm now experiencing WiFi connection problems with some of my devices.
I have a range of computers, games consoles, iPod touches and iPads connected wirelessly to the router. Some, like my Lenovo X201 and my son's X-box, have connected and remain connected. Others, like my sons' iPod touches, the iPad, and our Dell Netbook seem to freeze. One moment you are surfing the Internet, then you click on a link or try to search, or select a new page and the browser suggests it's trying to go to that page, but nothing happens. The only way to unfreeze it is to disconnect and reconnect, or to renew the lease. On the iPad this can occur every two-to-three minutes, which is a very irritating way to surf! There are similar issues with viewing video content from iPlayer, etc.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this before I resort to call the BT 'helpline'? (Yes, helpline is in quotes: I have a long relationship born of many years of broadband - or lack of it, more accurately...)

Hi snbjap and rounhead27, welcome to the forums
Ok, I too have a hub3 and have also seen this lately, though my hub has had many settings changed, so they're no longer at default settings.
The event log on the hub manager doesn't show this drop, which is odd as it normally does.
There are some things you can try:
a) change the wireless interface type from the default of b/g/n to just b/g
b) set each device to be issued with the same IP Address via the hub(time consuming for multiple devices)
or
c) set each device with a static IP Address and manually configure the settings to connect to the hub and thus the www (This so far, appears to have cured my Wii dropping)
Having said all that, and because I've already done the above, which has worked for me till the recent drop via wifi, I'll flag a forum mods to see if there is currently a known issue.

Home hub 3, broadband connection dropping

Hi, just a few days ago I recived my new home hub 3. The reason I wanted the upgrade from the hub 1 is because the broadband connection would drop and also the old hub would reset it self constantly.
The new hub is much better in terms of not resetting itself, if i try and watch something on 4od etc, youtube, it feels like any stress and the braodband connection drops, I had this on the old hub but it feels like its happening more now.
So much so I decided to make a paint version of my wiring so someone can maybe help me out.
http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r173/guysy1110/routerproblem.png
Sorry the paint image came out much smaller than I wanted.
The main phone line is dowstairs in the lounge, its split into 2 using a 2 way splitter, one goes to the main phone which has a microfilter attached, the other plug leads up to the spare room and there a phone box (sorry not sure what its called) is in place, this box was split into another one because a long time ago there was a router that lived in the spare room (the split box is unused). Probably confusing people now, but the main box upstairs in the spare room is extended into my room and then a microfilter is used and then goes into the hub.
The extension cable is FAR too long, possibly 10m of cable wound up and tucked behind the drawers. Could this be a problem? I guess so.
So my main questions are, if both the router and main phone have new microfilters on, what other causes could keep my router dropping the broadband connection? the extension into my room is FAR too long possibly 10m which is wound up behind my drawers, first off im going to get a shorter cable.
Also the microfilter is closest to the hub, would it be better at the first source downstairs, or even in the spare room?
Any suggestions would be great. thanks.

Im reviving this thread, so far from the phone box upstairs Ive shortened the cable, It still goes into my room but now instead of having a ridiculous 15m amount of calbing unused Its a straight 3m from the other room to mine.
This has slightly improoved things.
However the hub still suffers and drops the broadband connection when under "stress" when the phone rings it sometimes drops, and when downloading files it drops halfway through if the file is large which is a massive pain.
On the downstairs master socket I removed the facia and did a quiet line test on the inside socket, there was no noise. I used a corded phone. I wasnt sure if it mattered but I tested all other sockets using this method and none had any noise.
I phoned BT and was advised to take the hub closest to the master socket, but if i do this I have no wireless card in my PC so cannot connect, The obvious option is to get a wireless card but that will cost money. As will buying the power lines.
Any suggestions? I guess plugging the hub in downstairs and trying to connect to something is the best option.
Any advice please?

Home Hub 4 dropping connection

Hello - I hope someone can help
I have had repeated problems with broadband over several months - even changing supplier to BT - no difference. I have renewed wiring, changed telephone sets, filters - the lot and are now using the BT Home Hub 4. This has now been connected to the test socket for a couple of weeks now and it is still dropping connection on a regular basis. I reported a fault with a noisy line a couple of weeks ago and it seemed to briefly resolve itself.
I have tried to log an issue with BT but the line test shows no fault. The broadband speed test is about right for our location too.
At the end of my tether now and looking for any more help before biting the bullet and risking a £130 bill for an engineer to check the line. I have a hunch it is the main BT socket itself. Any ideas ?
Cheers
Jim

Hi Welcome to the community forums
Have you tried the quiet line test dial 17070 option 2 if any noise is heard this needs reporting to BT Faults on 151 with no mention of broadband in the call once resolved your broaband will start to improve

Can't connect or see me home network, can see/connect to others.

I have a fun one. I can't see or connect to my home network on 3 seperate iphone 3g's.(not 3gS.) I have a laptop, desktop and xbox that connect fine. It was working 4 days ago on this same router with the same settings. my SSID is being broadcast. I have the same security settings I had before, nothing has changed. WEP, channel 11, 802.1 g and b enabled. I can see my nieghbors wireless networks, but not mine at all. I can even connect to one of my neighbors unsecured network if the wind blows right and I get enough bars. I have reset the network settings on one iphone, restarted it, hard reset, complete restore, tried to "find other" networks. Nothing. (My network is on channel 11 because ALL of my neighbors are currently on channel 6 and it causes all my computers to drop due to interference. Worked fine for days on channel 11.)
It's a brand new belkin router. And it was working fine for over a week. And the laptop, desktop, and xbox are still working fine. but none of the iphones in my house (3) can even see the net work on the screen. (And yes, the SSID is being broadcast.)
Has anyone ever seen this issue?

ok. I have a Belkin Wireless N Router. For some reason the settings appear to have become corrupted. I still have no clue why it was able to work with the computers and xbox, but not the iphones. I now have it working.
The solution:
Reset your router back to factory. Then rebuild your network settings, do not "restore" from a file. (Don't know why but it didn't work.) I made sure to connect to the network with the phone after each change and saved the settings on the router each time.
Part of the problem may be with alternate channel settings, after I changed to channel 11 again, (to avoid the competition issue with my neighbors on channel 6) the iphone did lose view of the wireless until I rebooted the router. Make sure your router is connected with a hardline while you make the changes.
All is working now, 3 iphones, 2 computers and an xbox in a pair tree!

Bt infinity - home hub 5 - dropping connection

Ok guys, might be a difficult one for you here.
I have had infinity installed since October. I have always suffered from drop outs in my connection.
What happens is that the big blue light on the hh will turn orange for maybe 5 seconds or so and then go back to blue. But it's long enough to kick me out of an online game for example.
Router logs show something for the disconnection, but no info really.
I have had 3 home hubs, brand new internal wiring in my house, and 4 or 5 engineers out to check things out, as the line was also a lot slower than initially expected.
I have had another engineer out yesterday and today, who has changed my entire line back to the green box. But it has just disconnected on my again whilst playing titanfall.
Does anybody here have any ideas? Engineers are at a loss, BT India support are clueless. I'm out of ideas
Cheers guys

The only thing that makes me wonder, is that I am not seeing these VDSL up and down resyncs. And most people have been seeing these issues since late January, mine go back to October.

I do have a OR modem around, unused, that I managed to talk one of the engineers in to giving me, as plan was to use my AirPort Extreme, but I didn't want to start using that until the connection was fixed, as first thing bt support would say is that it's my router causing the fault.
I could try the OR modem, just not sure if this is my problem or not. Anybody know anything from the logs I have posted? Or will any other logs help out?

IdeaPad S205 Operating System:Windows 7 Home Premium can't connect to wifi router

Hi I have set up laptops at home before,
the brand new lenovo ideapad tells me "connections are available" and i can see my wifi has 3 bars - all good
however after enering the the network security key and click ok
it says connecting then a second later it says,
windows was unable to connect
i have tried all the recommended advice rebooted the router and the laptop and updated the driver software, however i am unsure if it was ythe most current or if in fact it did anything...
what else can i do?

Richiebee,
Do you have other PCs connected to this router and are they running Windows 7? What brand and model of router?
If you take your S205 to another location - a coffee shop, etc, are you able to connect wirelessly there? Perhaps we can try to narrow down the possibilities a bit?
Thanks!

Home router can't connect to third party mail server (internet works fine)

I use speakeasy webmail (MegaPath) and whenever I use my home router (netgear WNR1000) the internet works fine but I can't recieve or send mail either through Apple Mail or through Entourage. When I'm at work, coffee shops or literally any other network my mail works fine. What's going on?

prkswllflwr, Welcome to the discussion area!
Assuming that your sister's Mac has an AirPort Extreme card installed, use the photos in KB 108039, Properly attaching the antenna on an AirPort Extreme Card to verify that the antenna wire is properly connected.

Yeah it connects, then dies basically instantly (20-30s) then maybe flashes orange for abit then goes back to blue (but is still unconnected). I then restart it and the the whole cycle starts all over again.
I have broadband only, as I use it for my xbox etc so its not connected up for phone line.
There is no exchange problems in my area.

Accelerator fitted now hub can't connect to broadb...

I received my Broadband Accelerator about a week or so ago and had no problems fitting it. My hub was plugged into the same BT socket as the accelerator, and worked fine until today, when suddenly it could not connect to broadband (orange broadband light flashing but no connection). I unplugged my hub and tried it in a different telephone socket in the house (one without the accelerator) and it connected to broadband fine. I then tried to connect it back in the original socket where the accelerator is installed and still could not achieve a broadband connection. Why am I suddenly unable to get a broadband connection in the socket where the accelerator is fitted?

Sounds like you may have accidentally dislodged a wire on the socket to me ...

I'm on the wifi network at home, but can't connect to the internet

Is there a way to check why I can't get on the internet, when I'm on the network? I've reentered several times the information on the ipod touch settings, and it connects to my network just fine. I've reset the ipod several times. I'm using a d-link DIR501 router, which my other ipod, laptops, and printer, etc all connect just fine.

Forgetting the network shouldn't prevent you from reconnecting to it assuming you know the SSID (name) and have the password. What happens when you try?

USB 3.0 hub - Can it Connect? - Connecting to New Mac Pros and Old 2006 - 2008 Mac Pros

My question for today is as follows:
I need to purchase and install x18 multiformat card readers (SD & CF
at least) and was looking to get some input. Will we be able to add a PCI USB 3.0 card to
any of our Macpros? (we have 2006 - 2009 MacPros now - two 2006 macpros - a couple 2008 macpros - and the rest are early 2009 macpros)
I will purchase a 3.0 reader if you think it is something we will be able to integrate later, but I also know our
Macpros may be to old to support such modification. Are there anyspecific card readers you recommend (2.0 vs 3.0)? Any input would be
greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Kroope

I was considering one of these:

LaCie make an interface but for their USB 3 devices only i believe.

Issues with Gagabit connection on BT Home Hub 3.0

I did post this is the BB Other Forum, but got no reply, maybe someone can answer it in this one.
I have just received a BT Home Hub 3.0 to replace my old HH 1.0
I have connected the hub up and 'assumed' that if I plug port 4 into my existing gigabit home network everything would work simple. However this is not the case.
My existing ;working' home network has the following
1 x PC
1 x Laptop
1 x N.A.S
These are all connected by a 5 port Netgear Switch (GS605) they all have the yellow light to say they are at gigabit speed.
When I plug the HH 3.0 into the swtch, the light only comes up as orange (100mps). I have tried changing cables, but still the same result.
However, if I connect the PC directly to the HH 3.0 then my Local Area Connection says it is connected at 1.0Gbps.
When connected to the switch, my connection through the HH 3.0 is very slow, but when connected directly to the HH 3.0 it is running at speeds I previously had.
I have disconnected all items from the switch, powered down the HH 3.0 and connected it on its own. The yellow (1Gbps) light flashes for a while and then changes to orange.
Can anyone advise?
Regards
Trevor

I have tired connecting just the HH 3.0 to the Netgear Switch with cables that I know work at 1 Gbps and into all the ports. Resetting the HH 3.0 on several occasions.
Each time the light flashed yellow and then turned to orange. I know the switch works as I have green lights when known Gbps items are connected, eg, PC, Laptop and NAS.
When I connect my PC directly to the HH 3.0 in the Gbps my network connection comes up as 1 Gbps.
It is just when I connect the HH to the switch.
When I go to the Home Network setting on the HH I have the following. The hub is connected to the switch on ethernet port 2
PC connected at 1000 Mbps (directly to the Gbps on the home hub)
BT Vision connected at 100 Mbps (directly to port 1 on the home hub)
Laptop connected at 100 Mbps (connected to the switch) but is showing as 1 Gbps on the switch.
NAS connected at 100 Mbps (connected to the switch) but is showing as 1 Gbps on the switch.
Any further ideas?
Regards
Trevor
