Broadband goes down when using sky on demand

we have bt broadband, sky on demand wi fi connector and also netflix/bbc i player/you tube through our dvd player. we find sky on demand very slow to download and frequently lose our broadband connection to the pc/laptop when downloading. this occasionally happens whilst viewing netflix etc through our dvd player. any thoughts please - sky have sent us a replacement on demand connector but it has made no difference

can you run btspeedtester and when first test completes then run diagnostic test and post results 
btspeedtester
if wifi dropping then you can try downloading inssider3 (istumbler if MAC) and then run it. This will show the broadcasting networks round about you and their channels including your own. If you then enter your router and change your wireless channel to a free or less congested channel.
inssider3.1.2.1

  • [SERIOUS]    sqlplus goes down when using Nested MView

    I've been struggling with MView these days.
    I made an Mview and made another netsed Mview which is built on first one and other tables.
    At first, it was no problem making nested MView.
    But when query gets little more complexed, then creating nested Mview made sqlplus DOWN!!!
    It goes not-responding.
    Even more, now plain select sql from first Mview makes sqlplus go down too!!
    e.g select * from mv_myfirst;
    When I look into all_mview_analysis view for the status of mv_myfirst, it seems ok, known_stale ='N' and invalid = 'N'.
    Does anybody can shed light on this situation?
    Or can anyonw tell me how-to submit question to Thomas Kyte's famous asktom.oracle.com site?
    All Mviews are refresh complete on demand.

  • Please help Internet goes down when using iPad and Mac book pro at samtime

    When I am using my iPad and my wife is using her Mac book pro at the same time we both lose Internet connection. We are using a gateway 2wire wireless router supplied by AT&T. Both devices have the latest updates we have reset network settings reentered wep password rebooted router and restarted both devices with no luck. We bought both of them at the same time so we are new to the Mac world, not sure if it is related but our new 2nd gen apple tv also seems to power on for no reason even after I put it to sleep and the remote is put away so no accidental bumps. The apple tv is connected via an either net cable not wifi. Any info would help thanks.

    The fact that your using WEP security could be the problem. Try switching your router security settings to WPA or WPA2 with AES. If you don't know how id suggest contacting your internet service provider to get directions on changing the wifi security settings. The iPads wifi chipset supports AES encryption at the hardware level which increases performance and battery life. I'm not sure about your Macbook though.

  • HT4199 Had problems with my broadband going down at weekend, since it came back on unable to join wifi BT say it is because my wifi settings are missing on my iPad can anyone tell me where to find seething details IP address etc

    Had problems with my broadband going down at weekend, since it came back on unable to join wifi BT say it is because my wifi settings are missing on my iPad can anyone tell me where to find seething details IP address etc

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

    Hi,
    You could try increasing the java heap size, though sometimes an issue can occur if you are trying to delete a member when a workflow process has started, do you have one running?

  • The chat box goes down when i do split keyboard and I can't see what I am typing

    The chat box goes down when i do split keyboard and I can't see what I am typing

    I noticed that you responded to a very old thread about the split keyboard that I was in a couple of years ago and you asked this question about Skype and the spli keyboard.
    I Googled the question and the very first thing that I found form the Skype community was the recommendation to disable the split keyboard or just not use it, like I already stated.

  • Photoshop CS6 shuts downs when using the move tool

    Photoshop CS6 shuts downs when using the move tool. It seemas to run fine until i try and use the move tool. PS worked fine just a few weeks ago and now it has this issue. What can i do to resole this issue?
    Thnaks,
    System Specs
    Windows XP Home SP3
    AMD Atholon 64 X2 Dual
    2GB RAM
    Video Cards
    Radeon 7200
    NVIDIA GeForce 8400GS

    Two displays are OK on one adapter, Two displays adapters are not OK. http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/gpu-opengl-support-photoshop-cs4.html
    7. If you are using more than one video adapter, remove the additional cards.
    Multiple video adapters can cause problems when OpenGL and Photoshop use the GPU. It's best to connect two (or more) monitors into one video adapter. If you have to use more than one video adapter, make sure that they are the same make and model. Also make sure that they both support the same versions of OpenGL and Shader Model. Otherwise, crashes and other problems can occur in Photoshop.
    Note: Using two video adapters does not enhance Photoshop's performance.

  • MBP suddenly shuts down when using the superdriveP shuts down when u

    Randomly my husband:s MBP shuts down when using the super drive. What could be the cause of this?
    Appreciatte your Help

    Yeah, I hope it is just a firmware-problem. AND that Nokia will release an update soon. The version on my phone now is 021.013, and it is from July. A firmware update is long overdue now, especially after all the other problems reported with this phone. And btw I have turned the phone on and off several times without this helping to fix the radio-issue...
    I guess I will have to return the phone soon, if Nokia is unable to release a fixed firmware.

  • Can I disable the "corners" that turn down when using Parallels?

    Can I disable the "corners" that turn down when using Parallels?

    "Auto Save" is Apple's term, I guess. Its controls are so well-hidden I'm flying blind here.
    But as I put it in a note to a magazine dedicated to Apple:
    I think Auto Save is one of the dumbest things Apple has ever come up with -- oh so typical of what Bill Gates used to give people: lots of extra stuff no one ever asked for, and no one at his company ever thought through.
    Say there's a conflict with a program or two I'm trying to use. Machine locks up. I force quit and shut down -- probably without ever seeing the option of stopping Auto Save.
    When I open up again, what am I faced with? Yup, exactly the same mess I just tried to get away from.
    Boo, Apple!

    It's possible you've got a 'hot corner' set up. If you have and move the mouse to a certain corner of the screen it'll do as you describe. Have a look in System Preferences>Mission Control, bottom left of the window click on the 'Hot Corners' button and see if there is anything in there.

    When writing your question
    Any other details that would help us out with your issue: This issue suddenly occured, my phone is still in good condition (1.5 years old).
    Basically, my issue is whenever I go on the browser (or Opera and Ebay), my phone announces it is out of battery (even when on around 80%) and then shuts off. You can turn it back on with a battery pull, however the same will happen again if you try and go on the internet. Recently, it has got worse, turning off without a warning.
    Anyone else had this issue?

    I have the same problem, mine even shuts down when I'm using the phone. When I plug it to a power source, it comes back on. I was going to post this but decided to see if anyone had this problem, glad I did. I will take your advice and get a new battery and hopefully it will resolve my problem too.
    Thanks.

  • WLAN goes down when WAN goes down

    Hi
    I have 4 AP with EAP enabled. The authentication servers are located globally and the authentication request goes to the server situated in another country. My problem is that when my WAN goes down my WLAN also goes down immediately. Does the AP communicte with the server even after authentication, Atleast after authentication it should keep my authenticated machines in the network
    any help is appreciated
    ashish gupta

    if you use a Cisco ACS server, click on "Interface Configuration" and "Radius (Cisco Aironet)" Make sure that "Aironet-session-time" is checked.
    Then, you can change the session timeout in user or group level.
    Other ways to resolve the problem:
    1. install redundant links to the site
    2. configure a second radius server on all access point. The second radius server can be one of the APs locally. If you configure "radius-server deadtime ?", the AP will not communicate to the radius server for a period of time if the radius server does not respond for 3 times. Of course, you have to populate the centralize user database to a number of APs.

  • Live! Cam Voice Shuts Down When Using Motion Detection Feature

    I'm running XP Media Center 2002.
    I just installed Live! Cam Voice. Started using it and is was fine out of the box. I updated the drivers and i also decided to update the drivers for my SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS.
    The problem only seemed to occur when using the Motion Detection. Shortly after using it, I'd get a Microsoft error prompting the WebCam Center to shut down.
    First I uninstalled the software and reinstalled it using the original drivers on the supplied disk. I still had the problem. So i rolled back the drivers on my sound card. That seems to have fixed the problem... Thought you'd want to know.
    To be clear the Cam driver I'm using is .0.8.206. I believe this is the one that came w/ the install disk. Hope this helps anyone else who's experienced similar problems.....

    I have the same problem. I only get 6-7 fps max. I've never seen anything above 0 fps which is a disgrace. My computer is and Athlon64 X2 4800 with 2GB RAM so it's nothing to do with spec. This behaviour was the same in driver version .0.8 as well as the latest one... .0.02 or something.
    Also, since the last driver update, the whitebalance and focus when on automatic is dreadful. I'm not impressed.

  • IMac shuts down when using Safari 2.0.4

    My iMac shuts down when I visit certain websites such as Pogo or video sites. Took it to the Apple store and of course the problem wouldn't replicate there. They kept it to check out the scripts and logs to see if they could find a problem - without success; although they did suggest my house is haunted. Brought it home and it quit again.
    We thought perhaps we were getting interference from other wireless devices and unplugged our cordless phone which worked for a day. The computer always turns back on so its more of an annoyance than a real problem, but I'm baffled.
    It also happened once when I was downloading from the iTunes store, but is most prevalent with Safari.
    We have wireless internet connected via ethernet to an Airport Express.
    Any ideas? Thanks.
    iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.10)

    Hi Barry -
    Yes I do live near a ghost town (kinda) - Virginia City, NV. And I did tell any unwanted visitors to leave.
    Actually, in the last year, they have replaced the Super drive, power supply, inverter and logic board. The only reason I'm not thinking power issues is that it only happens when I'm in Safari or iTunes. I would use Firefox except I've got java issues with that. I can (and do) use the machine for other things all day long without problems. I can use Safari all day long as long as I'm not playing on Pogo or certain video sites. Maybe Pogo is haunted?
    It also doesn't happen on my husband's iMac on the other side of the house. Is there something that could cause enough interference to actually make the machine shut down? Oh, the antennae for the satellite TV and internet are on the roof directly above me, if that would have anything to do with it.
    Thanks for your help.
