Streaming audio and/or video crashes your router BEFW11s4 firmware problem

Ok!!! Apparently some of us have had the problem where trying to stream audio and/or video can cause the Linsys BEFW11S4 to crash, where only a power down and re-up will retore communication. Changing the MTU size has been suggested ad-nausium. I hope this works for you all, because it worked for me.
Apparently the latest firmware is the problem. I just installed an older firmware version and problem solved (1.50.14).
ftp://ftp.linksys.com/pub/network/befw11s4_v4_v1.50.14_code.bin
So, looks like maybe Linksys could hopefully issue another firmware update that fixes this (we hate having to use old firmware... trading off one bug fix for other multiple bugs that may rear their ugly head later on).
list of bugfix history found here:

Hi all -
This looks like this will fix the issue I have with my router. I'm willing to try it, anyway.
My question is pretty basic: What do I do after I download the file?
Thanks, Kate

  • Portable Wireless Server WG-C10 doesn't stream any audio and some video content after updating phone to Android Lollipop 5.x

    The Portable Wireless Server WG-C10 I purchased in 2014 doesn't stream any audio and some video content after updating phone to Android Lollipop 5.x.
    The WG-C10 firmware is the last version which is available and the PWS Manager software is the last version available in Google Play Store.
    There are no updates for the WG-C10 firmware nor PWS Manager software since 2013 or for Android 5.x (Lollipop) and I don't know if the WG-C10 firmware is the problem or if the PWS Manager software is the problem.
    BTW, I am still able to stream this content on my tablet which is on KitKat (4.4.x) so the files are not corrupted.  The only problem is with Lollipop.
    PWS Manager in the Google Play Store says it supports Android 4.0+ which is no longer true.
    The audio file formats which fail to stream are:  mp3 and wav
    The video file formats which fail to stream are:  mp4, avi and 3gp
    JPEG Images appear to work fine, but I haven't tried other formats.
    I purchased the WG-C10 to stream audio and video primarily to my phone and now that this no longer works, the WG-C10 is useless to me.
    Any ideas?

  • Operating Windows 7 Home Premium, 2 user accounts. Running Firefox one user can stream audio and video, the other cannot. Can anyone help?

    Two accounts set up. One can stream audio and video using Firefox, the other account cannot. The account with cannot stream a/v is able to steam a/v using (gasp) MS Internet Explorer. Is there some setting I have screwed up?

    There are some compatibility issues between the latest Flash player and some Firefox add-ons or settings. Could you see whether anything in this article helps: [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]].

  • Streaming audio and video frequently freezes or becomes garbled.

    Streaming audio and video frequently freezes or becomes garbled on my Macbook.  I do not have this problem with non streaming media such as iTunes or downloaded video.  The problem started six or eight months ago and has gradually become worse.  I don't know what to start checking.

    I have some issues with this feature. I can play all the media, however, I can only hear sound for a few secondsbut no images; then freezes.
    Format: xvid (.avi)
    OS: Windows Vista home premium X64 (WMP 11)
    Does anyone has the same problem or a fix?

  • I am using MTS files.  They load in PE fine. The problem is when I try to play them, I just get audio and no video.  I have installed the latest updates.  Is there a CODEX that I need.

    I have windows 8.1.  I have downloaded the mts files from my video camera onto my hard drive.  I have loaded a subset of these mts files into premier elements and they show up fine.  I can bring them to the time line without a problem.  The issue is that when I click on them, I only get the audio and no video.  Normally when you click a thumbnail, the picture shows in the large screen.  That screen remains blank.

    John - thanks for your response
    1. Graphics Adapter:  Nvidia GeForce GTX 650
    2. My driver before you response was 3/4/14   9.18.13.3523.  I went to Nvidia and downloaded and installed latest driver 7/2/14  9.18.13.4052
    3. Rebooted and checked APE and no change in the problem. Still doesn't show video when I double click an thumbnail or if I single click it does not show a video image in the large screen.
    4. Some things I have done to try to resolve the problem.
         a. Searched this forum for a similar problem.  I didn't see one.
         b. Did a web search to see if I could find a solution outside this forum
         c Went into "edit" and tried some changes in project preferences and setting to see if that would make a difference
         d. Tried to contact Adobe support to speak to a person but that seemed difficult and could never figure out how to do it.
    5. I have always loaded AVI clips into this program and this is the first time I have tried MTS files. When I opened the new project, the program notified that I had to change something??? to load an MTS file and asked me if I wanted the program to do this for me.  I said yes and here I am.   I seem so close to making it work.   Thanks

  • Downloaded a movie (mpeg-4) from youtube and I only have audio and no video.  it plays on another pc but not this one.  please help.

    Hi,
    I downloaded the latest free version of quicktime.  I am trying to play a movie (mpeg-4) that was downloaded from youtube.  It plays fine on my other pc, but I only get audio and no video when I open it on this pc. It shows up like static lines on a tv that has bad reception.  Can anyone offer some suggestions please?  I need to play it on thislaptop computer as I require it for a school presentation.  Thank you.

    It plays fine on my other pc, but I only get audio and no video when I open it on this pc. It shows up like static lines on a tv that has bad reception.
    Open your QuickTime control panel (either via the Control panels, or by going "Edit > Preferences > QuickTime Preferences" in the Quicktime Player). In the Advanced tab, uncheck Enable Direct3D video acceleration:
    ... and click OK. Quit and restart the QuickTime Player prior to checking to see if the settings change has had any effect.

  • Changed TV out to off but ipod still only plays audio and no video

    Just recently my ipod decided not to play video. All the videos in the video folders are gone and now appear in the music folder. Even the video podcasts no longer appear in the video podcast folder. I have changed the TV to out to off and still it continues to do the same thing. I am not sure what happened, I don't believe I changed any settings or anything. I would hate to reset the ipod and lose everything. Need help, thanks.

  • Audio (and some video) dropping out export

    I've created an project with short video/audio clips sampled to produce "music". It plays OK in FCPX, but when I export it (H.264, 720p, Apple Devices, 44.1) as an MP4, some of the audio (and some video) drops out. That is, it does not show up in the exported (aka "Shared") movie file.
    There are about 7-8 things (tracks) going on at once, maximum.
    Any ideas what to do to fix this?
    Thanks!

  • HT4858 with photo stream on and importing pictures from your camera into your Ipad - after 30 days the pictures will be removed from photo stream, but will the pictures still be in your Ipad ? andy

    with photo stream on and importing pictures from your camera into your Ipad - after 30 days the pictures will be removed from photo stream, but will the pictures still be in your Ipad ? andy

    To my knowledge, pictures in photo stream stay there untill there is more than 1000 of them, then after that the oldest ones are removed from photo stream.  If your photos have synced to your devices via photo stream or manual syncing they will be there until you elect to delete them.

  • "iMovie doesn't lock the audio to the video - it's an old, old problem"

    Lot's of people have had problems keeping long video clips in sync with their audio in iMovie. I think what this guy says is correct:
    http://forums.mactalk.com.au/11/49711-imovie-hd-sound-out-sync.html#post608307
    "iMovie doesn't lock the audio to the video - it's an old, old problem either you import in short segments so the sound doesn't get too far out of sync or you buy Final Cut Express - it does lock the audio to the video".
    ...and unfortunately I don't know of a way to import in small sections if you've recorded say 4 minutes worth of continuous footage.
