BT Homehub 2 dropping connection every few minutes

Hi, my homehubs been working perfectly until today when it started dropping the connection every few minutes (ranging from 3 minutes up to 13). The broadband and phone lights go out then orange and then back to blue after about a minute.
Having browsed the forums etc Ive changed the location of the hub, changed channels, checked cabling and changed the microfilter.
Im now at a bit of a loss. The firmware is Version 8.1.H.J (Type A) and i notice that the firmware updated on todays date.
Im hoping someone has some ideas as im all out now.
Thanks

I have the same problem friday afternoon at 4.30 to 11.30 at night the router reset itself every five minutes ....the prob first started in nov 2010 i have had 3 home engineer visits and finally we might be getting somwhere it looks like its caused by interferance on the line the phones fine its the broadband ,looking at the engineers meter it was running fine then all of a sudden it spikes erros 21,000 of them the router reboots and steadys again .......somthings causing line interferance it could be anything a pir on a security light ,a street lamp with a faulty timer ,there has even been a case where a car tyre garage has had its broadband removed by sombodys faulty tv .......
         the engineer fitted a resistor box under the wall socket and ran the wires through it to the socket ...this is disigned to filter out certain frequencies of line pollution but not all ......it seems to be working its only shut down twice tonight and that could be the exchange mucking about as they are continuing to monitor the problem ......HOPING ....... oh he also removed the front of the wall socket and fitted me a dsl one with a separate phone socket hence doing away with the dsl filter ......................

  • Loosing connectivity every few minutes

    I am working on a Toshiba Portege 400. I have no problem connecting, but I loose the connection every few minutes. Sometimes it reconnects quickly, other times I have to select "connect".I do not have the same problem with my other laptop. Any ideas?

    Hi,
    Set up DHCP Static,locking MAC and IP,select the lease time in the router for the Toshiba . If that not help you,upgrade the latest firmware,if agin is occure the problem check your WI-FI card,try with other one of the other Laptop.
    Good Look !!!!!!

  • Cisco SD2008 v3 switch dropping connections every few hours

    Hi, I have a Cisco SD2008 v3 switch at the office that routinely drops connections every few hours and must be turned off/on to get back up. It doesn't seem to drop all connections, but some boxes plain and simply become unreachable.
    I've double-checked that there aren't any looping cables. The network infrastructure wasn't touched, as we had a cheap unbranded switch before (which amusingly didn't have any problems other than an annoying fan) and just put the Cisco in.
    I've googled a bit and found some references to this problem, which leads me to believe it's reasonably widespread. Is there a firmware update of some sort for this equipment? Any ideas?

    Hi Bruno,
    If you would be so kind as to ring the good folks at the Small Business Support center regarding this issue.
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/support/tsd_cisco_small_business_support_center_contacts.html
    If there is a known problem with this older product it should be replaced.  You cannot update the unmanaged switch with new firmware as I guess that can only be done in a factory.
    But the older SD2008  has been refreshed by  the new  technology SD2008T  (100 series)  which are really quite advanced compared to the older SD series switches.

  • WRT54GS v. 6 Dropping Connection Every 5 Minutes

    I got a Linksys WRT54GS v.6 router in October. In the beginning, it would occasionally (every couple of days) lose its wireless connection, and for a while DHCP did not work with my iBook. Then I upgraded last month to firmware version 1.52.0, which solved the DHCP problem, but did terrible things to the connectivity.
    Soon thereafter the connection, both wired and wireless, started dropping every 5 minutes, and could be recovered only by power-cycling the router (the wired computer is a PC running XP, and the wireless is, as stated above, an iBook G4 with OS 10.4.8). I should note that I tried the DSL connection directly through the modem with the wired computer and it stayed up for the entire time I used it, which was close to an hour. I spent many, many hours on the phone with tech support and changed wireless channels, MTU sizes, fragmentation and RTS thresholds, and beacon intervals, along with several hard resets of the router, but continued to have the same problem, so they deemed the hardware defective and sent me a replacement.
    When I got the replacement, I went about installing it and immediately upgraded again to version 1.52.0, and everything worked great for about a week, when I started having exactly the same problem with the connection dropping every 5 minutes like clockwork. Again, I called technical support and suggested it was a software issue, but they insisted it was hardware and are sending me a new router again.
    Has anyone had a similar experience with this router/firmware? Does anyone have any solutions outside of having Linksys replace my router every 2 weeks? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

     too had this exact same problem.  Please note that "had" is the past tense.  This is a consistent problem and the geniuses on the help desk don't have a clue how to fix it.  In looking at this and other forums, found a website with step-by step instructions to change the OS to Linux and change the firmware.  Have been rock solid ever since,  Once you change, the admin pages appear differently but you have access to the same admin fields as well as some additonal information.  Ihttp://www.wrtrouters.com/guides/upgradetolinux/

    If your AirPort Express is configured as a "bridge", with Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode) it is receiving DHCP services from the router that is ahead of it, in this case, probably the Buffalo that you mention. That would be the device where the lease settings would be adjusted.
    Check AirPort Utility
    Manual Setup
    Click Internet icon
    Check the Connection Sharing setting at the bottom of the page to confirm your setting for the the AirPort Express

  • MSI GX640 Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN dropping connection every ~10 minutes

    Problem: Getting disconnected every 5-20 minutes. Network card: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN.
    Solutions tried: Router restarted? No idea what to do, googling it yielded no viable results, even though I can't say I'm pro at googling. Found no drivers on MSI homepage.

    Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN
    Further information:
    My MSI GX640 had problems with heating and was sent to be repaired and got its heatzink switched. I started getting disconnects every 10 minutes or so, sometimes less than a minute apart, sometimes up to 20 minutes without a disconnection.
    Don't really know what information you might need, so please do tell if something is missing.

    Those are not the newest: http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=nbdriver&maincat_no=135&prod_no=1998
    You'll get the newest at:  http://www.intel.com/support/wireless/detect.htm - click the check buttom and follow steps. <- These are from 18-10-2010
    But yeah you'll might need to change which wireless channels you are on. If you aren't using Wireless connection then you might have to check your LAN card drivers or this can allso be caused by your ISP or bad connection on your internet line.

  • Wifi drops out every few minutes

    I've been having wifi issues here at my University's network.
    I have a 2.2 quad core 2011 Macbook pro 15" running 10.7.1 and up to date as of this posting.
    Wifi would work for between 1 minute to 15 minutes, and then pages would stop loading at about the 15% mark (in the URL bar.) Airport still sees a wifi connection, and it would just keep trying to load. The MBP works fine anywhere else except my school.
    I asked IT and I'm the only one with this problem so far. I thoght it was a weak signal, but it drops from all parts of the univeristy, even in another building. I thought that the network was overloaded, so I went to school at 6 in the morning and it was still bad.
    I thought it was Lion, so I booted up my fresh SL partition, and it still had the problem.
    I asked fellow students with 15 Pros running Lion and they have not had this happen to them.
    I can bring it to the apple store, but I don't think they'll see the problem.
    I've tried clearing the PRAM, using terminal to repeatedly ping google and change the DNS, and changing the list location for wifi to the top.
    It's so frustrating reserach solutions when wifi keeps dropping. It's been a month so far, and I'm ready to snap ... my macbook in half. lol.
    As you gould guess, I now have to turn airport on and off to post this.
    Please help.

    Update the firmware in your WiFi router. You can probably find this and instructions on how to update on the router manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need help please give the make, model, and version of the WiFi router that you are using.

  • BT HH5 Dropping All WiFi connections every few min...

    Have been with BT for over a year with no problems with standard BT Broadband and the HH4
    2 days ago I was upgraded to BT 'Faster' Broadband and an engineer updated my internal phone socket and I was upgraded to the HH5
    Every few minutes it drops connections to all devices connected wirelessly (Android phone, tablet & Chromecast, 2 iPhones, 2 iPads and 2 Windows laptops) Have a PS4, Sky+HD box & Samsun TV connected via wired which don't seem to have problems.
    With all the devices losing their connection regardless of manufacturer & my previous HH4 never having a problem, the WiFi connection problem obviously lies with the HH5
    BT's troubleshooting is not fit for purpose as it all it does is talk you through getting connected wirelessly, which isn't a problem... staying connected longer than a few mins is.
    Is it faulty, is there settings that need altering
    Thanks in advance

  • Disconnect​/Reconnect every few minutes

    I just had Fios installed 4 days ago.  I've got a M1424WR wireless router.  Firmware up-to-date, 2 computers one wired one wireless. and every few minutes I'm disconnected from the system and reconnected.  Almost every web site has to be reloaded 2-3 times until there is a response.  The Verizon Tech phone support didn't see anything wrong with the service or router.  As a matter of fact, 6 lights are lit on the router and when this happens they generally don't go yellow or go out.  It just looks like the connection to the router is fine.  I've rebooted the router, even rebooted the back up power.  I have a feeling that there is just a setting somewhere that needs to be changed.... anyone have any ideas?  For reference, it's a lenovo laptop, IBM build.  I'm desperate to get this resolved as it's impacting my work.

    Well, you have two computers. one wired and one wireless.
    Do both of them drop connections or just one of them? If both, do they drop at the same time?
    If it is just one of them, then I'd look at the connection itself or the computer. If it is both, then I'd look at the router or verizon network.
    Assuming it is both. You've already rebooted the router, did you try resetting the router also? Also try reseating the wan cable to the router as well. If your still having an issue at this point. I would call tech support back and ask them if they can pull up the history log on the ONT. This will hopefully tell them if the drops are happening on the inside or outside of the house.
    Do you have any other fios services? Telephone or TV? Do they have any issues?

  • My Airport Extreme Disconnects From the Cable MoDem Every Few Minutes

    Hello,
    I start a new topic as my previous title was wrong and there was no suitable answer.
    I have had an Airport Extreme for 3 years and it sometimes disconnects after a few minutes. Actually, it more looks like that the Airport crashes: the "PC Link" light on the cable modem goes off, the Airport lights go off and I cannot find my Airport Network any more on my computer.
    When this happens, I can either unplug it from the power and plug it back in, or simply move the Airport around a little bit, and it will re-start. Sometimes the problem does not re-occur for a few hours or days, sometimes it keeps happening every few minutes and of course drives me crazy...
    Is it because ... :
    - ... my Airport has a faulty connection and I should replace it?
    - ... there are power surges in my electricity installation (eg this seems to happen when I or my neighbors have air conditioners on, I live in one of those old New York buildings with old electricity installations), and I should get an anti-surge device, or a newer Airport would deal with this better?
    - ... of something else? I tried replacing the Ethernet cable between the MoDem and the Airport and it failed, there does not seem to be a source of interference around my place.
    Thanks for your help!

    I have had similar problems. Not as bad as some of you but usually in the morning I discover that I have dropped onto someone elses wireless they are not as fast. Then I have to troop upstairs, unplug the Extreme, replug it and then everything is allright until the next morning. But it is sporadic. It has run fine now for a few days. This problem has persisted now for a year. And yes I have tried resetting it.
    Next month I plan on going to the big city and I am going to take my Extreme to one of Genius' at the Apple Store. I am curious if anybody else has tried that solution and how much it might cost.

  • Bought HDMI adapter to play movies from my iPad but it will stop every few minutes, Bought HDMI adapter to play movies from my iPad but it will stop every few minutes

    Once I begin to play a movie from my iPad to the TV using the HDMI adapter it will pause and lose sound every few minutes.  I am using the video app and the movie plays fine if not connected.
    I have also checked to make sure that everything is connected properly.

    Well, I thought it was solved... or at least solved enough to live with. I had originally installed 2.6.31 from testing to try and fix this issue, and it substantially improved, but now it's gotten worse again. At home on a WPA network, it drops maybe once or twice a day. Here on this unencrypted network, it's going out once or twice every half hour. Same error messages as above.
    I tried reinstalling, but ended up with the same errors almost right away. This bites!
    Anyone have any other ideas to try?
    Thanks,
    Scott
    EDIT: I tried rebuilding rt2x00-rt71w-fw from source. PKGBUILD has the incorrect source link. So I actually went to the ralink site, downloaded the (hopefully correct) driver package, unzipped it and copied rt73.bin to /usr/lib/firmware --overwrote the existing copy. I haven't got any errors yet, but it's only been 20 minutes so far. We'll see. I'm not sure if it's the identical rt73.bin that's currently in the repos or if it's different. Forgot to compare the two before I overwrote the old one.
    EDIT2: No luck with the different rt73.bin. Also tried the new Ubuntu karmin beta and got the same errors -- and a freeze when I pulled the adapter out when it stopped working.

  • Airport keep disconnecting every few minutes

    Hi,
    I don't know why, but my airport keeps disconnecting every few minutes, although it reconnects after that.
    I'm sure there's no problem with my router since other PCs in my home are fine.
    It's totally fine when I use my windows in the macbook (via bootcamp).
    Anyone has the same problem or anyone knows the solution?
    Thanks.

    I've had this issue for about a week and it has made my Macbook nearly impossible to use for anything other than local disk work.
    Last night I tried running the standalone upgrade and it worked beautifully, however, upon booting up this AM I'm back to square one, constantly dropping the connection, ran the standalone update again and back in business with no drops.
    While this is appears to be my temp workaround I don't want to be doing this on a daily basis.
    HELLO APPLE what is the deal ?

  • Drop outs every few hours

    Hi all
    hope someone can help as i am coming to the end of my tether with my BT Faster Broadband connection
    it drops out every few hours and has done for almost 2 months.  i cant watch a movie or play a game without losing connection at least once, maybe twice if i am really unlucky.
    i got a new hh5 a little while ago and was fine for a while. then the problems started - dropping 2 or 3 times a day.  contacted bt and they sent a replacement hh5. no change.  eventually in the last few days got worse and its now sometimes dropping at least a dozen times a day, rendering my connection little short of useless.
    almost convinced it was a hh5 issue as they seemed to take an age to resynch, so bought an asus dsl-n66u and crossed my fingers.
    soon enough, connection dropped again and again. 
    i have tried 3 different cables, between router and socket, removed the openreach faceplate and plugged a new filter  in to the test socket.  connected for around 4 hours and droped again.
    Connection details from the Asus, with the filter in the master socket - the same as with the openreach filter (as you can see i lost connection again not so long ago.
