Has anyone had any problem with Linksys?

I haven been trying to connect to my Linksys with speedbooster and I can't figure it out. My entire life I have never used an apple computer.
I have called the Linksys support people and they tell me the same thing: "We don't provide support for apple computers." That's great hugh?!!
I am able to connect to the router without a WAP or WEP password but I don't want to leave a free signal around my area.
This routers come with different WAP codes, also with Radial and WEP that is hard to know which one is the right one.
Do you guys have any idea how I could be able to solve this problem? Has any of you guys have encounter something like this with Linksys?

If your Mac is truly running MacOS 10.2.x, you are limited to using 128-bit WEP security - WPA is not supported.
On the Linksys router, select 128-bit WEP and enter a passphrase. The router will generate, from the passphrase, four hexadecimal-format WEP keys. Copy down the FIRST of those four WEP keys - and use that WEP key on your Mac when prompted.

  • Has anyone had any problems with their charger blowing out?

    Has anyone had any problems with their charger blowing out? mine blew, there's now a charred pin on the charger and in the socket of the macbook. The plastic around the charge socket is also cracked & distorted from the blow-out. It wasn't a power surge as no other electrical items were affected. It wasn't liquid or dust, as I'm the only person who uses it & I'm very careful. I'm concerned that the consequences could have been terrible. I wasn't present when it happened though, I can just see the evidence after the event.
    I have a mid 2010 13" Macbook running the latest software & use the original magsafe charger that came with it.
    Will I have to fork out for a costly repair or is there a safety issue that Apple will sort out for me?
    Any advice would be much appreciated.

  • Has anyone had any problems with fusion drive?  If so, what kind of problems, and were they easily corrected?

    I'm looking at buying a new computer.  Has anyone had any problems with fusion drive on iMac?  If so, what kind of problems, and were they easily corrected?

    NOPE!
    I better not!  My iMac is only a week old.  And, if I did have any problems with it, I would let Apple deal w/it!  I do not troubleshoot when I'm under warranty.  That's Apple job!

  • Has anyone had any problems with the latest upgrade for iPad?

    I have an iPad 1 and am being prompted to upgrade to the latest version software. Has anyone had any problems when doing this? Our PC runs on Wndows 7.
    Having just resolved iTunes not connecting to the store after the recent upgrade, I'm reluctant to do something that could potentially screw up the iPad which does what we want as it is.

    Ok, thanks for that. I'll hang fire for the moment & see if anyone else has any comments.
    That's probably a good idea.  If you are happy with the system as is, I'd wait to upgrade.  I can report that my friends and family have mostly upgraded to iOS 5 without any problems, but as you can probably tell from other posts on this board, lots of people have run into problems. 
    As the old saying goes, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!

  • SOLVED - Has anyone had any problems with xorg 1.11.14-1?

    Last night I had a double catastrophe. The first was nothing to do with Linux, but was the result of a rogue drive trashing my sata ports and killing both Arch and Windows. I managed to rescue Windows, but since Arch was running at the time (and updating) nothing I tried could bring it back. After restoring from a backup (10 days old) I started the updates again (a gargantuan 415Mb) which completed, though after a reboot X failed to start. Nothing in the logs, and no activity at all. My usual fix is to remove xorg.conf and reboot, which will generally get me to the desktop to troubleshooting stage using vesa drivers instead of catalyst, but even this couldn't get me to a desktop. I tried removing catalyst altogether from single user mode, but nothing would fix.
    I restored the backup again, and did all updates except kernel, catalyst, and xorg. Everything worked fine, so next I updated catalyst - still working. A fresh backup and I updated the kernel. Still working, which means the only thing not updated at this point (and in my mind the most likely culprit for the failures) is xorg.
    Now I'm not daft enough to try updating before I make a fresh backup (I've remade several tweaks to my system that got lost after the original crash), but before I go to the trouble, I wondered has anyone else had any problems with the updated xorg?
    For info, I'm running on a Phenom X4 965BE, AMD 4670HD with catalyst 12.1, kernel 3.2.2-1.
    TIA

    Any idea where the problem was?
    X also fails to start for me now, when the catalyst driver is loaded. It used to work before, but after recent upgrades and changes to the system it's somehow broken.
    (Same catalyst and xorg versions as you mentioned, but with kernel 3.2.4-1)
    Switching to the open-source radeon driver makes X start fine, switching back to catalyst breaks it again.

  • Has anyone had any problems with the 10.0.3 upgrade?

    I'm running WinXP and presently have Adobe Reader 9.4.3.  Before I upgrade I would like to find out if anyone has had any problems with the new release?  The last time I upgraded an Adobe product (Flash) it screwed up my ability to watch videos on my browser.
    Any information would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Spin45

    Adobe Reader has the original 10.0.0 with its associated vulnerabilities and the patch of 10.0.1 which seems unable to run in protected mode in my environment or any that have roaming profiles.  The vulnerabilities that prompted the last two patches (would have been 10.0.2 and 10.0.3) have been forgone by Adobe, because "Protected Mode mitigates those vulenrabilities".  See here:  http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb11-06.html
    and here: http://www.adobe.com/support/security/advisories/apsa11-02.html
    In my opinion, Reader X is not ready, they are soliciting for testers for a new release.  Version 9 with its attendant problems seems to be the only viable solution for me, if I can get the patches to apply properly, and the installer to work properly.

  • Has anyone had any problems with their PSDs getting corrupted using CS6 on an iMac?

    I  bought my iMac (Refurbished 21.5-inch iMac 2.9GHz quad-core Intel Core i5) in February. Installed CS6 and other programs including fonts I normally use. Last night though, as I was saving my layouts to PSD and JPG, I noticed the graphics were corrupted and had funky neon lines and converted my white coloured text to black! I restarted my computer, changed the colours back to white, re-saved and they (gladly) turned out normal again. I've never had this problem with my CS5 in my 2009 Macbook Pro. I was told by a friend that it could be the fonts I installed.. So I validated my fonts, removed the ones with the yellow warnings.. but I'm just worried this will happen again if I can't resolve the problem properly. I have no clue how to resolve this. Thoughts? Help?

    Hi Make an Appointment at Apple Store maybe a battery fault. Cheers Brian

  • Has anyone have any problems with 5s "sticking"?

    Has anyone had any problems with the 5s iPhone "sticking"? It's happened to me twice where I press the home button, and nothing happens.

    Yes.  Very sticky. especially the first time you go to click it after not using it for a bit.  Mine feels similar to if there were crumbs underneath, or parts crunching together.
    I just got off phone with Apple.  I thought it was my imagination and being too sensitive until just now seeing other posts having same complaint.   Apple rep on phone said it was not normal and for me to get it swapped out.

  • Has anyone had a problem with the letters literally rubbing off the keyboard?

    Has anyone had a problem with the letters actually disappearing from the keybord, like being gradually rubbed out? My macbook air had this problem one year after purchase. They fixed it for free. Now, a year later, I have the same prob. Apple doesnt want to know.

    I don't have to be doing anything or be anywhere near the computer.

  • Has anyone had this problem with VPN iPad vpn connection could not validate the server certificate

    Has anyone had this problem with IPad 3 after upgrade to IOS 7,
    trying to to connect VPN , but I get this messag, "could not validate the server certificate".
    I am trying to connect to Oracle VPN.

    Has anyone found a solution for this yet? I am still getting the could not validate server certificate error. I have tried importing the entire certificate chain as well as importing each individual cert in the chain. My certificate works perfectly with the cisco vpn on my pc.
    This is my first experience owning an apple product, and I am very disappointed with the customer support that I have received. I tried calling the help line and no one would even attempt to answer my question. I was then told that the Mac "geniuses" wouldn't know either and that I may be able to find an answer on the message boards. So I am reaching out to the community...Has anyone been able to figure out how to resolve this issue or even the specific cause? Any help is appreciated.

  • Has anyone had a problem with their imac because the power company installed a smart meter which broadcasts the readings to the company?

    Has anyone had a problem with their imac after the power company--in my case Pepco in Washington DC--installed "smart meters" which read the meter and transmit the data via wireless?  I've had trouble and when I move the imac downstair it disappears. Help!

    barryfromwashington wrote: 
    would putting up a metal shield by the meter help?
    It might, as long as the shield is grounded. Metallic (such as copper) window screen is often sufficient.
    As mentioned, it would not hurt to file a complaint. The burden of proper shielding should probably belong to Pepco. Among other things, the FCC frowns upon RF leakage and its interfereing with radio communications. Besides, Pepco probably would not want you to affix a shield around their gear - liability issues, etc.
    You could experiment by temporarily hanging a shield-screen on the inside of the wall, behind where the meter transmitter device is located, and see if there is any beneficial change.

  • Has anyone had a problem with depositing a check with the app for Bank of America?

    Has anyone had a problem with depositing a check on a bank app?

    Is the check something like a payroll check where its digitally printed and all in text?, or is it a handwritten check?
    from my experience handwritten checks rarely work, myself and friends have always recieved an error stating the picture was to blurry no matter how many times we took a picture. From what i have read with others who have issues with depositing handwritten checks, some checks are deemed to blurry based on the handwriting, therefore the app wont accept the check, while other handwritten check will be accepted just fine, i hope this resolves your issue's and concerns
