Any ideas on getting airplay to work with u-verse router?

Ok, so my airplay is just horrible on my apple tv/iphone/macbook pro combo.
Airplay is a total joke, it will play to the apple tv for maybe 20 seconds and then it just gets all choked. The "remote" app does the same thing. I upgraded my internet connection thinking that at&t would come out and give me a new router too, but i guess they just bump the download speeds to the router. I'm pretty sure that the router is the problem. It's a "2wire" 802.11g supplied by att.
Any ideas would be appreciated. I'm going to call the support number for the apple tv, but it's been my experience that support people are just looking at the same simple trouble shooting info that is posted on the internet. So i'm not expecting much.

well i did get airplay to work better by trying all the channels in the router and settling on channel 4 as being the most reliable.
Now if I could only get netflix to stream without stopping every minute or so. We have a 12mbps internet connection. Which is about 4 times faster than the standard At-t connection speed
I still think that this stuff requires a much better router than most people have. My router is a G router, and it seems maxxed out. I wish i knew that things would work well with a faster N router.

  • Any ideas for getting AirPlay to work???

    I have been researching the subject of enabling AirPlay on my iPod Touch (Gen4) and iPad2 for quite some time. I have read a number of blogs and articles and reviewed many of the postings on this forum. Unfortunately, none of the information has allowed me to enable AirPlay on my iPad2 with my Dell running Windows7.
    Here is what I have done thus far:
    1) I have enabled Home Sharing on my iPad (under iPod settings) and on iTunes on my PC. In using the Remote app on the iPad, I can see my library.
    2) I have made sure both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network.
    3) I have performed a plethora of restarts on the iPad.
    4) I have disabled the firewall on my PC.
    5) I have performed so many syncs I have lost count.
    6) I have gone through the troubleshooting steps provided on the Apple website.
    7) I have validated that iTunes is current, using 10.2.1.1.
    Everything that I have tried has yielded the same result, I am unable to see the AirPlay icon in the iPod app, videos, etc. Two things to mention, although I was under the impression these two things did not matter: 1) I do not have any music on the iPad (I didn't think it mattered) and 2) I do not have any videos on the iPad.
    Any ideas what I can try next?

    AirPlay lets you stream content from your iOS device to an Apple TV or an AirPort Express.
    From here:
    http://www.apple.com/ios/
    Get even more play out of AirPlay — the wireless technology that lets you stream content from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your HDTV via Apple TV.1 In addition to music, movies, and photos, AirPlay now streams video from your Photos app. So you can shoot a home video and instantly share it with everyone in the room. Even AirPlay-enabled apps and websites get the big-screen treatment with iOS 4.3. And if your photos are the feature presentation, you can play a slideshow with all the stunning themes available on Apple TV.

    Is this issue specific to one PDF file or all?
    What exactly happens when you try to use any drawing markup?

  • Airplay not working with non-apple router

    I use an airport express only for playing music in a remote location. It stopped working after I switched my main wireless router from a Time Capsule to a Linksys running Tomato USB firmware.
    The Express is set up as "join a wireless network" with the correct SSID and password. The light on the Express is green and the main router status page shows it is connected, but Airplay cannot see the Express from either iTunes on my macbook or my iPhone. Also I cannot see the device in Airport Utility. When I connect the Express to my computer with ethernet, Airport Utility can see it and so can iTunes.
    I have another Express hooked to the network via ethernet and everything works fine with that one.
    Surely Airplay should work with non-apple wireless routers. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    thanks

    Factory reset the express, and try to make it join again...

  • Any work around ideas to get Shake to work with Yosemite?

    Alright, now that I have confirmed the sad news about Shake on Yosemite: Does shake still work with OS X Yosemite? I imagine I will eventually need to upgrade for the sake of my other software... Any ideas for a work around for when the day comes? Any cheeper options than running Mavericks in Parallels (Seeing as I would have to buy it)?

  • Any way to get multicam to work with HD?

    I am using multi-cam mode in Premiere and it is essentially unusable because of lag.
    I am presuming this is caused by a bottle-neck of the hard drive, as my system monitor is showing only 50% RAM usage and ~80% cpu.
    I have tried everything i know to try to ease the process: only using multicam window (no preview/source), changing playback/pause resolution to 1/8th, closing all other programs, constantly saving and restarting, disabled multi monitor(only using one screen).
    Still nothing is helping.
    Is there anyway to prevent this lag?  Aside from building a better machine?
    I am running 5 full hd cams, 2 of which are constant wide angles, so I dont need a preview of them (but still need to be able to select them in the mixdown).  Thought I could disable certain previews, but no idea if that is really an option.
    Can i downsample the originals just for editing sake then revert to the full rez on render?
    Can i pre render files? 
    Can I close other things that are hurting my performance?
    I think its rediculous this can't work in some fashion.  A project that should be done in real time is taking me 10x as long because I have to constantly pause and wait for the video to catch up.
    Any ideas would be super helpful
    I am running an i7 8 core, 8gb ram.  System drive is 120gb solid state, all media files on a seperate 450gb 7200 rpm.  Analysis files are on the solid state drive.

    Thanks for the input everyone.  Through trial and error, I found a few useful tips I will share.
    1st, you can disable any of the viewable streams, yet still retain the ability to click on them while doing a live mix.  You don't see the image (duh) but it my case this resolved the issue. 
    I was doing a mix of 2 stationary cameras and 3 operated cams (recording a band live at a theatre), so I didn't need to preview the stationary cams.  I turned them both off in preview (the tiny eye in the setup sequence) which meant only displaying 3 streams instead of five.  I was able to use full playback resolution with no lag at all.
    I also tried enabling 4 cams, which worked while reducing the playback qaulity to 1/8th, and this too seemed to work fine.  It seems im my case, 5+ streams is the limit.
    This was 1920x1080 @ 60 frames.
    Also based on my system monitor, RAM and CPU were not in any short supply.  I feel the issue lies in the HD or bus, but have no way to test this.
    Anyway, thats it on my end.  Super stoked I can use this feature, it makes life so much easier.
    On that same note, in my next computer build, I want a machine capable of handling more streams.  Any suggestions on the best RAID configuration when it comes to multi cam HD?  I am also curious to see if splitting the files onto an external drive(s) and the internal storage would make a difference.  Cheap hack, but if it works........

    There are no setting on the iPod. Unlike the iPad wich morrors the iPad display, TV out on an iPod only displays TV out on apps that support TV out. The Video app is one such app.
    Is that you problem?
    Otherwise:
    Try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

  • How can I get Airplay to work with my 3TB Time Capsule and my two AV receivers

    I have researched the net to death and my only solace is I don't appear to be alone. I have a 3TB Time Capsule that has a Denon and Pioneer receiver attached to it by ethernet. Also connected to the time capsule our three apple TV's. I can use airplay with my iPhones and iPads to the Apple TV but can't get either the Denon or the Pioneer to show up as Air Play options on any IOS Devices or my two Mac's.
    I have the latest firmware on the Denon and Pioneer, the latest firmware on the Time Capsule and Mac's. I have tried power cycling, inserting a switch between the receivers and the time capsule but to no avail.
    Any suggestions would be greatly

    You can't officially as it relies on hardware.
    A potential software solution is Airparrot.

  • Any ideas on getting CDM to work in non-global zones ?

    I'm trying to find a way to use SGD in a Solaris containers enviroment. For the most part this works great except I can not get the client drive mapping to work. This is due to the fact that nonglobal zones are unable to be nfs servers however I see in the client.prf file I can add a different host to the config as the nfs server. has anyone tried this and gotten it too work ?
    when I try I am able to physically mount the share but if i let SGD do it I get :
    nfs mount: localhost: : RPC: Program not registered
    nfs mount: retrying: /smb
    any thoughts ?

  • Cannot Get Airplay to Work with Airpot Express on PC Laptop

    Until recently, I had Airplay available on both my PC Laptop (Windows 7) and MacBook Pro (OS 10.8.4). I have had to reboot Airport Express because of a power failure. The MacBook immediately picked up the Airport Express and iTines Airplay works fine. However, the laptop cannot find Airport Express, When I run Airport Utiliity, it scans and rescans but cannot locate it. iTunes on the PC does not let me configure for Airplay. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Cannot get VPN to work with new WRT400N router - wired works

    After successfully using VPN with my WRT45G v3 wireless router for years the internet connection suddenly quit working. Called Linksys and they suggested buying support or getting a new router. I bought a WRT400n dual band router.
    I have a work laptop that is Windows XP and a personal laptop that is Vista. The wireless network is up and running; both laptops can connect to the internet. The problem is when I try to use my work laptop and VPN to the company network the internet connection on that loptop drops and I have to reboot to reconnect. If I use the ethernet port on the router the VPN works fine.
    I can use a limited access version of the VPN software on my personal laptop with no issues (limited due to security restrictions). 
    I have called linksys support, my ISP support, and company support. My company support suggest that it is a security setting on the Linksys wireless network.
    Has anyone run into similar issues? The VPN software is by Juniper Networks  - Network Connect 6.4.0.

    Make sure all the Ports required for your VPN software are forwarded on your router...Try to reduce the Security to WEP on your Linksys router...
    Also change the MTU Size to 1300 and see if you are able to connect to your VPN...
    If nothing works you should reset and then re-configure your router...

  • Still can't get airplay to work!!!!!

    Grrrrrrrrr. Still can't get airplay to work with either my iPad or my iPhone to my atv2. Everything has the latest firmware, including my airport extreme. Airplay is turned on in options on the atv2.
    Everything is on the same network. I even switched networks but still nothing.
    I do not see the blue icon that let's me stream to the tv.
    What the heck am I doing wrong?

    Hi,
    Your profile indicates you are running v10.5.7. If that's the case, you need to update your system software to v10.5.8 which is the minimum requirement for the iPad.
    Click the Apple () menu then click: Software Update...
    And make sure Bluetooth is not enabled on either the iPad or the iPhone. Tapping Settings / General / Bluetooth.
