Alright, some serious problems (WRT54GS)

Alright, here's my problem. I've tried searching many places and haven't really been able to get an answer to help me. I hope someone here can change my luck. Ok, so, I got this WRT54GS just a few days ago. Here's my problem. I tried to install it using the CD that came with the router, to no avail. With everything the way it is now, I can connect to the internet. The problem is that during the CD installation, I can't get past the step where I have to detect the router.
Everythings connected properly, but it won't work. After searching for a bit, I found out that you could also install it without the CD using the web based utility. Unfortunately, when I tried to access 192.168.1.1 I get a, "Error loading page" rather than a password prompt. The main thing I want to use this for is Wifi for my Wii and DS, as well as something for my laptop to connect to. All 3 can find the router when I do a search for access point, all 3 can connect to the router. None of them can get on the internet from that point onwards though.
I'm using an ambit cable modem router with cable internet. My OS is Windows XP SP2. I don't know if either of these helps, but I figured it might be useful.
I've tried resetting several times, unfortunately to no avail. I'd like it if someone can help me out.
I'm not a complete idiot, so if you need a screenshot of anything, and I can follow directions pretty well, so anything to help is appreciated.

I guess I'm not alone, I've got the same thing going with the same router, but DSL modem. I also remembered from previous router to not use the CD but the web-based configuration technique. Incidentally, did you maybe follow some directions that had you save to 192.168.2.1 instead of the default 192.168.1.1 (which my DSL modem is using).... Hope someone can give us all a magic bullet - there are other threads with the same general problem, and I gotta tell you it sucks having to work from home on a 49.2 dial up session...I have no clue as to why I can't plug the DSL line directly into the laptop and get a better connection. Sorry, no help to you other than commiseration....

    my computer has some serious problems, my iphoto only shows  only shows thumb size pics when I try to open them, i tried to rebuild my files from folders that had the pics in them. originally all the photos had a large delta with a question mark. also I can't back up the library file because its not there. I went to time machune and tried to find the file but I can't find it or I am looking in the wrong place. I also lost my Idvd file, only have broken chain showing.

    Details please
    What version of iPhoto and of the OS?
    i tried to rebuild my files from folders that had the pics in them.
    Exactly what did you do and how did you do it? this ay be the cause of your issue but without details we can n=ony guess
    my iphoto only shows  only shows thumb size pics when I try to open them,
    where do you see htis? In the iPhoto window? what does "try to pen them" exactly mean?
    originally all the photos had a large delta with a question mark.
    Ok - this usually has a simple solution - do you still have a copy of the library that has this problem?
    also I can't back up the library file because its not there.
    This makes no sense at all - all of your previous statements indicate that you do have an iPhoto library but have some problems with it
    By default your iPHoto library is located in your Pictures folder and is named iPhtoo library - if tha tis not the case the you have moved or renamed it and only you know what you did until you tell us the details
    I went to time machune and tried to find the file but I can't find it or I am looking in the wrong place.

  • Some serious problems with Mountain Lion

    Hi everyone,
    I upgraded my mid 2010 15" MBP to Mountain Lion 2 days ago, and I have some serious problems with my machine now.
    - Wifi problem: like many members 's machines, mine has problem to connect to the wifi after sleep or restarting, I had to wait 10 to 15 minutes for it to connected to my home network. Anh I tried to remove all of my settings in System Preferences/Network and added new connection. And now it cant connect to wifi anymore. I'm writing this article while sitting on the floor with my Ethernet cable plugged in my MBP. I connected to internet through a DSL modem and a Airport Extreme as a bridge and Access Point. I also tried to set up all of my network device but my MBP can't connect to the wifi still.
    - Keyboard problem with Pages: I was very happy with the new iCloud syncing for Pages documents but after 5 minutes, I met a big problem with Mountain Lion. Whenever I type in Pages with Vietnames Keyboard( Mac OS X built in or from another developer: http://www.trankynam.com/gotv/ ), Pages stops working immediately. I can still drag the Pages's window around but can't type or do any editing. After that I have to force quit pages. It is really stupid that I'm writing a book in Pages and now I have to stop my working till apple fixes this ridiculous bug. I tried German Keyboard as well and Pages worked flawlessly. Do you hate Vietnamese, Apple?
    - Messages problem: Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I couln't send or receive any messages. It worked perfectly in Messages beta.
    Does anyone have the same problems like me? Any solution such as how to reinstall Messages(I googled but found nothing)
    Apple, please test your software more before release it. I feel like I have no computer at the moment because I can't work, can't surfing the web wirelessly and can't communicate with my friends.

    HI,
    - Messages problem: Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I couldn't send or receive any messages. It worked perfectly in Messages beta.
    Does anyone have the same problems like me? Any solution such as how to reinstall Messages(I googled but found nothing)
    What Messages to what type of Buddies or Contacts ?
    This
    I found out that the problem with my wifi was my MBP received automatically a ridiculous IP such as 169.254.170.0 instead of 192.168.1.4 as it should be.
    WIll be part of the Issue as will be DNS issues.
    mDNSresponder crashed with Handsoff! v1.5.3. After upgrading Handsoff! to v2.0.2, it works again.
    In this case mDNSresponder also being stopped will stop DNS working.
    I would guess if you have resolved these that you can Chat to people again.

  • MY IPAD 3 HAVE SOME SERIOUS PROBLEMS

    Hello Everyone
    I have a  16gb ipad 3 and it got problems , since i updated it to the new version i had some serious problems ,
    My ipad will not turn on when it plug in to the charger that on the wall or my ipod dock that i normally charge it on , it come up with the battery signal when it on charge and in the battery signal theres red lines through it and it goes to the apple logo after that it turns off  and starts it again , ive reboted it , ive downloaded itunes agian to restart it that way but it wont come up on it at all . it starting to **** me off .. it has run off the 9o days  or so period .. my last report that is to ring them to see if they can help . My ipad has a lock on it too and it has never done this before .......
    Thanks Everyone
    From Australia xx

    Hello Krystal,
    I would be concerned too if my iPad was not charging.  I found an article with steps you can take when you encounter an issue like this.  I recommend following the steps below (these steps refer to an iPhone, but the steps also are relevant for an iPad):
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    You can find the full article here:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Once you get your iPad running again, follow the steps in the article below if you do not recall your passcode:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

I'm also getting intermittent sound problems in BF2 like not hearing sound when I switch to rear view which didn't happen before. I've tried trouble shooting it myself but to no avail. I tried installing it on my other hard dri've which is clean but even though I did a full installation it won't even recognize the card and says there is a prolem with the drivers. I can't understand why my sound card won't work on my second hard dri've and why I am having problems with it on my first. If anyone could help me with this problem it would be greatly appreciated. By the way I have a DFI LanParty NF4 Sli-DR, AMD Atholon 64 3000+, XFX 6800GS PCI-Express 256MB, 2GB OCZ Gold Dual Channel DDR 400,Ultra 500watt PSU, Logitech Z-5500 5. Speakers.

  • I am having some serious problems...

    iTunes deleted all the music on my iPod nano 7 when I was trying to put some video on it and now I'm trying to put the music back on, but iTunes won't let me...?

    Sorry to hear about the issue you are facing.
    There is an updated print driver for your product which was released:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategor​y?os=4062&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=3883​...
    Check if this newer print driver helps.
    To answer your other query about selecting a different size media vs inputting different size, the printer actually does not allow it to protect it from overspray on the carriage.
    I work for HP.

  • I got some serious problems installing flash player on windows, please help?

    i got windows 7 but using a safari browser cause none of the other browsers work on my computer, and i have flash player 11 installed but thats just way to outdatet since most of the websites i use require a newer version. so i was wondering if anyone knew how to fix this little problem of mine, i have tried all the things on adobes support site but nothing seems to help, please help me ?  

    Suggest you do the following.
    Download the uninstaller from here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550
    Choose to Save and save it somewhere you can find it easily again. Do not choose Run.
    Disable any AV shields like file scanners which kick into action as soon as you uninstall/install anything. If you're not sure how to do that, consult this list for instructions: Disable Antivirus
    Run the uninstaller to remove Flash from your system. Be aware that it also uninstalls it from any other browsers you might be using such as Firefox, Opera etc., but not from Google Chrome.
    Reboot, disable AV shields again and then go to the same site once more to download the installer: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550
    When you see the prompt this time, choose Run to install immediately.
    If you use Firefox, Opera or any other browser where Flash is a plugin, download the installer for those. Flash in Google Chrome is embedded and will auto-update, so no need to worry about that one.
    N.B. If you use Windows Live Messenger or any app which uses Flash, disable it before you run both the uninstaller and the installer.

  • Serious problem with my iPod Classic/iTunes

    I have a 6th Generation iPod classic (80 GB), and recently, I have been having some serious problems with it.
    When I connect it to iTunes, there is usually no problem, it shows up, plays and displays the music correctly, etc. However, if I try to ADD any music to it, iTunes will freeze, then close, and within 5 minutes, my entire computer will freeze completely, and be shut off. For whatever reason, happen when my iPod finally disconnects because my computer turned off, all of my music is missing from the library (This doesn't happen every time it freezes, because I try to disconnect my iPod manually before everything freezes). The music is still on the iPod, (it says that I have XX.X GB of "other" instead of music/videos), but it doesn't show up. When I plug in my iPod, iTunes says that there was a problem and I need to restore it. The first time this happened, I lost over 5,800 songs, but I forgave Apple, because these things do occasionally happen, plus I had no idea what exactly went on. The SECOND time happened within the same week, after I had put 800 songs back on the restored iPod. The first time happened when I was using iTunes 10 (which is seriously buggy on my computer, and freezes often), so I switched to iTunes 9 (still buggy, but doesn't freeze quite as much), and the same thing happened. So now I'm thinking it's my iPod's fault. My iPod does a whole host of minor problems over time such as making certain songs cut off at a certain specific point for no reason (Always the same song, always the same cut off point, and I can't fast forward past it, I also can't delete the songs because if I highlight them on iTunes, iTunes will freeze, and if I find them under the music folder in iPod control, my computer will freeze), freezing the entire iPod for seemingly no reason, and somehow messing up my album artwork (it will appear as "Colourful Static"), along with alot more.
    I know this is a troublesome problem, but if anyone could somehow shine some light on this problem, it would be tremendously appreciated.
    Thank you
    -Eric Luna

    Unfortunately, when a hard drive starts clicking that means it's going bad. The mechanism is having trouble reading the drive. Since the iPod is mostly just a harddrive and a battery I have a feeling that this is your problem.
    watch this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMm6c3fr-fU
    about 25ss in is where the clicking starts. If it sounds like that, but softer and more muffled since it is a smaller drive that is being enclosed then I think you might be SOL. Maybe if you're iPod is still under warranty you can get a credit and go for a touch and avoid moving parts all together?

  • Serious Problem. Help!!!

    Hi. Im having some serious problems. Some of my programs refuse to load. None of the Microsoft Office programs will open. Omnidisksweeper wont load, nor will Windows Media Player. I used Microsoft Word this morning. Now nothing. I ran Monolingual and have no idea if that messed it up or not. Pleeeease help!

    I did the same thing with the same results- only native intel apps, no rosetta. I installed in place via the disc one of the system discs and everything was back to normal.
    btw, I only saved 360 mgs with monolingual- seems somewhat shy of what I was expecting- having heard there were close to 2 gigs worth on other posts regarding monolingual.

  • Serious problems with WYSIWYG

    Hi,
    I have some serious problems with placements in 3.0. Items sits just fine i design mode, but in quick preview or in browser preview, items goes all over the place.
    The only way to go around the problem is to shift the item in design mode and make successive previews to see, if the item now sits correct. And even this metode is not optimal, because sometimes this action moves other objects on the page in preview as well....
    This ofcourse means, that I do not have any WYSIVYG at all.  And the worst is, that I never know which of the items on a page will course the next problem. Very, very frustrating!
    My last updated version (must have been 2.3...) was faultless. I made a customer site in this version before upgrading.
    This page has now been approved, but opening the site in version 3.0 is futile. In designmode everything looks fine, but in preview it looks like something I tried to code myself.... I don't know what I will tell my customer, but it's not good. Not good at all.  
    I have attached two screendumps. The first one shows the page in design mode. Everything looks fine and every item sits correct. On the second screendump you see the slideshow is going up and behind the topbar, which is center pinned. Notice that there is no scrollbar, so I can't scroll down. This problem is just one of the above mentioned. Other problems are text or pictures that refuses to align horizontally, pictures that goes way out to the top - or the bottom....
    I tried to check the sticky footer on and off, but no result either. I have even rebuilt the version 2 site, pasting the items anew, but still it goes wrong in the browser. 
    Am I the only one experiencing this problem? If you want to see the muse file, you are welcome.
    Regards a very unhappy customer  

    Hi Sachin, no, But I do have a center pinned topbar. I have tried to un-pin the topbar, but the problem with misplaced items still appears. Its important to emphasize that in designmode everything looks fine, but in preview or a browser files are misplaced or hidden behind each other.
    I tried to check the sticky footer on and off, take away footers on the masterpage etc. because it seems that something on the page is pushing or attracting some of the placed items.
    The problem basically is, that Muse 3.0 does not give me WYSIWYG, and that is a dissaster for a designer!
    Regards
    John

  • My iPod 4G is havin some serious probs

    Hey,
    My 4th gen ipod has been having some serious problems. All of the sudden the other day when i would plug it up to update, it would say "the volume ipod can not be read from or written to" and i reformatted it and tried it and got the same message, and even tried it w/both the usb and firewire cord. I called apple extended warranty and the guy told me it sounded like a bad harddrive so he sent me a box and i sent it to apple and they sent it back saying nothing was wrong with it. So when i plugged it up after that it updated fine, but now half of my songs get skipped on my ipod, it will bring them up like it is about to play it, then it just skips to the next one... any ideas?

    I would try to restore the iPod and re-load the music back on it again.

    I'd make sure to read the contract and any associated fine print really, really carefully before doing this. But back to your question - this is more of a marketing question and I'd suggest hiring a good marketer (or become one) to make the most of this opportunity.
    And how do you find a good marketer?
    I'd suggest using Seth Godin (http://sethgodin.typepad.com/) as your guide/model. If the person you want to hire knows and follows Seth's good marketing advice, you'll likely do very well. If they don't know who Seth Godin is and are obsessed with SEO rankings and email blasts, I'd be very worried (that's not to say SEO rankings and email blasts are "wrong" but that they shouldn't be the only options in your marketing approach).
    Good luck!

  • Serious problems with my Shuffle (1GB)...

    Alright I am having serious problems with my Shuffle that have been going on for some time.
    1) Whenever I plug my Shuffle into the computer the green light stays on constantly and my computer doesn't detect it.
    2) My PC 50% of the time crashes about 10 seconds after my Shuffle is plugged in.
    3) Whenever I get my computer to detect my Shuffle it automatically disconnects and reconnects itself very quicky (every 30 seconds or so).
    4) Whenever I try to update the drivers on it it displays an error message on my PC saying "Disk Write Error" in the update window.
    Any suggestions?

    I'd give this a shot:

  • What do i do ? My i phone 4 has no option to reduce the motion picture. It is causing me a serious problem. Can anyone please help ?

    After several attempts to get some help from Apple, it has become clear to me that my i phone 4 has no options within accessibility to reduce the motion picture.
    I have a serious problem with the new software but unfortunatly i cannot go backwards with this update. Apple for obvious reasons will not advise any downgrading options. Can anyone please help me? Is there a third party option here. I do not want to pay for a new phone or replace the i phone as i run a mac,desktop and i pad... !! Thank you.

    It's only that I'm not clear why you are reluctant to post it. If you have a podcast in the iTunes Store then it's there for the world to see - they might search on its subject or title, for example, even if they don't actually know about it from you. If you look at other posts in this forum you will see that usually people post their URLs and then I can examine the feed and hopefully find out from that what the problem is. Without this information no-one can give you anything more than wild guesses.
    If you are still reluctant to post the details and want to have a bash at diagnosing the problem yourself you may find my web pages helpful:
