WRT160Nv2 locking switch

We have two WRT160Nv2 routers here at my library. They loose connections very often. I had to restart one of them twice this week. But the big problem they create is, that they some times lock up a whole switch, Linksys 4124. This has happened at least three times in 2009 on two different switches.. It took me a while to find out, that it was the WRT160N routers that did this. We also have a couple of linksys WRT54GS and have had no problems with them. has anybody experienced the same problem?

 Thanks Scrooge for trying to help.
Actually both. The WiFi network looses connections from the WRT160N. Four times last week on third floor network.
But the biggist problem is when the WRT160, locks uo a whole switch. This affects networked circulation computers, staff computers and printers.
I have changed the MTU to 1350 to see if it helps. It might take a while.
I checked the other WRT54 and MTU was set to Auto and we no trouble with them in any way. Looks like the Internet is full of complains of the WRT160N.

  • Ipad Update loses horizontal / Vertical lock switch. Now it's a mute switch

    OK, this is a big one.
    The little switch on the side of the iPad, that normally allows users to lock orientation, now functions as a mute switch.
    This is a terrible flaw, and should be corrected.

    Add me to the list of people who are dismayed and confused by this change. I listen to music perhaps 2% of the time on my iPad. Maybe 85% of my time on it is spent reading text, usually while sitting or lying down. I change positions frequently. I use the lock switch *all the time*, and use it with the hand holding the iPad, to boot. Now I can no longer do this; I have to go through a complex iteration on screen, requiring much more of a break in my attention flow (I have to actually stop reading the book I'm reading, go to another interface, perform a multi-step task, come back).
    My question is this - why on earth wouldn't you at least give us the option of setting the behavior back the way we're familiar with in software somewhere, even if you defaulted to the new behavior to make sure we're aware of the possibilities? Please. Please please please. Give me my hardware screenlock back. It's making reading in bed really annoying.

    The iPhone 5 is less than a year old, so all of them should still be in warranty unless they have been jailbroken or physically damaged. If you have a hardware problem as you describe the only option is to get the phone replaced by Apple or repaired by a non-authorized shop. The Apple replacement will be free at any Apple store in the country where the phone was purchased. If Apple determines that the phone was physically damaged or jailbroken it will cost $229.

  • Broken lock switch on new iPad air

    Has anyone else experienced problems with the lock switch that controls the landscape and portrait orientation on the iPad air?  Bought 128 gig. New iPad air and the switch broke after a few days.  To make it worse I took it to the Genius Bar and they verified it was broken and have been waiting two days for a replacement.  My husband bought one too and his has been fine.  Based on the price, I'm a little frustrated with the quality issue but maybe it is an isolated case.

    I don't see many complaints here or online so probably isolated. Besides, it sounds like the issue is already resolved since they are giving you a new iPad.

  • The lock switch is not working anymore

    The lock switch on my nano doesn't work anymore, it's really annoying since I can't walk around with it in my pocket without the sound getting turned up or the song switched every time i move. Also, since the lock isn't working I can't turn it off properly. Is it a mechanical problem?
    Thanks

    Are you able to go to an Apple Store? I had an older generation model nano, which the lock switch wasn't working and since it was still under applecare warranty, they replaced the old nano for me. But that is in the USA, so I am not sure how it works in the UK.

  • N8 lock switch?

    When watching reviews of the n8, I seemed to be under the impression that the lock switch was a 2-state on/off type switch, but when I got mine, turns out it's a spring-loaded slider button. Was this a recent design change, or has it always been that way? I tend to think a 2-state switch would have been more useful.

    As an N97 user I've found I will occasionally turn on my camera by accident, especially when calibrating the compass on maps, however I've NEVER 'accidently' unlocked the phone, so I think the lock slider is probably a better idea, and all the reports I've read seem to say the one on the N8 i much better constructed then the ones on previous models !

    Hey there,
    It sounds like you are unable to get any sound from your built in speaker on your device, even after toggling the side switch. I recommend the troubleshooting from the following article named:
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
    Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
    Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
    If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
    Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
    If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
    Try turning off Bluetooth.
    If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
    If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, please contact Apple Support.
    The article title mentions the iPhone, but the steps are relevant for the iPad as well.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling

  • Mute switch is a landscape/portrait lock switch

    I got my Iphone 5 back in April of 2013, and only recently realized that the switch above the volume control buttons is not supposed to be a landscape/portrait lock switch, rather, its supposed to be the mute switch.  I took it to the Verizon store and told them about it, and they let me exchange it for a new one.  I got the new one home, updated it to IO7, and then restored it with my backup, and the switch is STILL a landscape/portrait switch...I'm guessing that its something in my backup info, but I'm not sure why.
    The switch on the Ipad is was landscape/portrait lock, but I've never had an Ipad, I did have an Ipod 5 before the Iphone 5, but thats it.  Dont understand why my backup would tell the Iphone to treat the switch as a landscape/portrait lock, not a mute.  Makes me wonder what else it could be doing that its not supposed to.
    Anyone else ever heard of this happening?
    Thanks.

    The mute switch has nothing to do with being able to hear someone when on a call, it simply mutes sounds like the ringer and notification.

  • Lock Switch on Top of iPod Nano

    I've had this nano for 5 months and just yesterday the lock switch on the top has broken. When I move it from the locked position to the unlocked position the lock icon is still on the screen and I can't pause or adjust the volume or anything. Does anybody have any suggestions?

    Reset and then restore it in case it's a software issue.
    If the problem still occurrs, then it's a hardware issue. Take it to the nearest apple store or fill out a service request

  • Ipod lock switch not working

    The lock switch on the ipod has quit locking. There is no lock icon on the screen and the scroll wheel remains in use when in the lock position. I have sent it into Apple twice and they keep returning it saying there is no problem. Has anyone else had the lock switch problem? I am getting very frustrated with both the ipod and Apple. Any suggestions???

    Have you tried resetting the iPod yet, or doing a restore?

  • Help! Ipod frozen with with lock switch on
