BT homehub CONSTANTLY disconnecting.

I've just about had it with BT internet, what a joke this is.
Over my 2-3 years with the company I have had countless connection issues, those coming from a problem that I've still not established due to the terrible technical 'support' that is provided upon dialing the free 'support' number, the same technical 'support' that had blamed the problem on me initially but then went on to say it was a fault at their end 2 weeks later, the same technical 'support' that has sent people over to change my master socket and ADSL filters, the same technical 'support' that has left me in the situation that I am in today (and have been in for God knows how long), that situation being one where my internet doesn't last much longer than 10-15 minutes on my XBOX 360 without cutting out and lasts around 30-45 minutes everywhere else because the Broadband will disconnect and flash an orange colour.
What on earth can I do? I've done everything that BT can possibly suggest, such as line tests, posting my stat's on forums, etc... and it just seems hopeless.
I CAN'T wait for the day I lose touch with BT and sign up for Virgin internet, and unless somebody stops these problems that are occurring, that day will be VERY soon.

Skype constantly disconnecting and muting others' voices

I'm on Windows 8.1, and am running the most current version of Skype.Despite this, in the past couple of days alone, Skype has started acting up. I will go on skype, it will load every message just fine, I can join calls, I can talk and be heard, video works fine both ways, and I can message... Just that I can't hear what anybody in a call is saying. I can hear the notifications and the test sound, but not my friends' voices. What's more perplexing is that after 10 minutes or so I can start hearing them. Which brings me to the second problem... I only have so much time before skype disconnects me. I have been constantly disconnected from Skype despite a continuous internet connection. Somebody please help!

Make a direct connection from your PC/laptopto the modem which will eliminate the homehub. Follow this guide to do that. Use your computer as normal to see if it disconnects. If it does not disconnect you will know that there is nothing wrong with your line/connection and it may be a faulty hub . Obviously this must be done with a wired connection and no wireless devices will work while you are doing that.
Step 1: Remove the homehub from the modem
Step2: Connect your pc/laptop into the modem using LAN1 port
Step3: Open network and sharing centre on windows and click set up a new connection or network
Step4: Connect to the internet then click make a new connection Broadband PPPoE
Step5: Username [email protected] and the password as BT
Step6: connect, If it doesn't,keep pressing try again until it does.

Magic mouse constantly disconnects and can't get it to connect without rebooting the computer. Anyone else have this issue

How do you solve the problem of the magic mouse constantly disconnecting? I have changed the batteries and turn it on and off, but the only way to get it to reconnect seems to be re-starting the computer. Any thoughts? Thank you.

Greetings Beth,
Wireless devices are susceptible to interference. Review this article for common sources: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3048#5
They are also very sensitive to low power. Make sure you are using VERY fresh batteries. If they have been sitting on a shelf for months they don't count as fresh IMO.
Troubleshooting steps to try after you read that article at the top:
Remove the following to the trash: Macintosh HD > Library > Preferences > com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
Restart the computer and re-pair the mouse and keyboard
If issue persists reset the SMC:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
If the issue persists reset the PRAM:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
Hope that helps!

SOLUTION to your HP printer going offline and/or constantly disconnecting from the network

If you are having a problem printing, scanning or faxing with any HP Printer because of it going offline and constantly disconnecting from the network, here is the fix!
I figured this all out after many unsuccessful attempts with HP Support, my Internet Service Provider and various troubleshooting tasks including reinstalling HP software over and over and over. Well, through self teaching on the internet and 6 grueling months of research, I FINALLY figured it out. OMG! I am a Paramedic (not IT) and somewhat computer literate but by far no expert. I here all of you! Nobody seems to have the answer but I am 97% sure that I do. Either way, please reply back and let me know that this did in fact work for you! :-)
It doesn't matter if your printer is installed wirelessly or wired. Don’t worry about reinstalling your software, no recycling your printers’ power or your Router/Modem. The reason your printer is unstable on the network and continues to either go offline or disconnect from the network is NOT because the software is glitched, it’s not a firewall problem per say, it’s not a router problem, there isn’t a problem with your power cord, it’s because most networks use a “range” of IP addresses and for security purposes, it sort of “cycles” the various devices’ IP addresses to decrease the chance of an attack. A printer is no threat but the “network” doesn’t possess human intelligence so it doesn’t know this. Below are my step by step instructions on how to basically make your printer hold its IP address (static IP) instead of changing back and forth through a cycle therefore dropping your printer off the network or disconnecting.
Funny, if you are someone who has had items in your print cue, they won’t print, and you turn your printer off and then back on and suddenly your documents print…well, join my club. The reason this works is because when you first turn on the printer, it starts with the same IP address before it cycles. If you are someone who sits there for a while and suddenly your documents print without you changing anything…this is because through the IP cycle change, it hits your printers IP address and the network will allow it to print. Not very funny, I know. It took me forever to figure out why my printer would print sometimes but not all the time. Since I figured this out, I can SCAN, PRINT and use all of the features of my installed HP software such as HP Solution Center, Photosmart Essentials.
On your printer, go to menu/setup/network and press OK. Inside the network menu, print a "network configuration page" so you can see the IP address and other settings for your printer.
Now, go back to main menu on your printers’ screen. Or you can go to your web browser and type in the IP address using the decimals too and this will take you to your printers’ web page. Choose: setup\network and press OK. Look for IP settings and press OK. Choose "manual" instead of "automatic". Enter the IP address there manually as well as the default gateway which you can see on the network configuration page that you printed earlier. Note: If you manually set the printer's IP, make sure that it is outside of your router's DHCP range. Otherwise you may run into an issue with duplicate IP's on your network. (If you don’t know how to do this, write back and I will explain). Don’t forget to click “save changes”. Now, restart your computer and print anything you want. :-)
A trick I often use with printers in DHCP networks:
In Printers and Faxes right click on the printer and select “properties”. Click add a new port. Choose standard TCP/IP port configured to the printer host name. Read the hostname from the printer's network configuration sheet.
Using my method means that you always connect to the printer even if its IP changes (which may happen with dynamic configuration). This does not jeopardize your network security. It just tells your printer to stay put and stop traveling the IP address highway. :-)
This question was solved.
View Solution.

The DHCP range is the range of IP addresses the router hands out automatically as devices join the network. The DHCP range is determined by the router and each brand has a range set at the factory (that can be changed by you).
Your D-link's DHCP default range is 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.199. So, outside the DHCP range is .2 to .99 and .200 to .254.
Attached is a handy cheat sheet.
You can change this range by entering the router's settings page - type the router's IP address into a browser, enter the login info and navigate to the DHCP settings area (varies based on router, hunt around).

E2000 Constantly disconnects from XBOX Live

I'm not having an NAT issue, but my e2000 is constantly disconnecting from XBOX Live. About every 3-5 minutes I get disconnected. My wireless is working perfectly, this is only an issue with XBOX Live.
I've followed all the examples on the forums here, like:
http://homecommunity.cisco.com/t5/Wireless-Routers/Need-HELP-to-change-NAT-type-to-open-on-Linksys-E...
and
http://homecommunity.cisco.com/t5/Wireless-Routers/Open-NAT-xbox-live-problems/td-p/337375
and I have double checked every setting. I'm not sure what is causing this issue.
I've set the MTU, unchecked UPnP, entered port forwarding range to XBOX's static IP address, and set the DMZ to my XBOX's MAC address.
So, what is causing my router to constantly disconnect?

Try the following steps:
A] With the help of Cisco Connect Software (if at all you have installed the router with the help of this software)
1] Open the software and go to the option which says "Router Settings"
2] Then click on the option which says "Advanced Settings" which will take you to the router's configuration page.
3] Then Click on wireless Tab select Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 6, 9, and 11. Click Save Settings....
B] If you haven't installed Cisco Connect then you can log on to the router's user interface using it's default IP address in the browser which is 192.168.1.1 and type in 'admin' as the password leaving the username field blank. This will take you to the router's web interface and then follow steps as mentioned above to make the changes.

Wireless constantly disconnects

Hi,
I am running an extremely old laptop (inspiron 4100) with lxde. The card I am using is a linksys PCMCIA the chipset is BCM4306 Rev 3.
The wireless would constantly disconnect and not reconnect using "Network-manager". I am now trying to connect manually from terminal using iwconfig (the internet here only has WEP) and it is not doing any better. Is this a driver issue most likely? Should I try to reinstall the network card?

Do you actually know from using other networks that the problem isn't the signal? Constant disconnects have only ever bugged me when the signal was weak or the connection really strained.

My internet continually disconnects. When I added my airport express, I had to call Verizon (my provider) and have them "bridge" my modem. Ever since, my connection constantly disconnects and puts up the message "Could not find a PPPoE server".

My internet continually disconnects. When I added my airport express, I had to call Verizon (my provider) and have them "bridge" my modem. Ever since, my connection constantly disconnects and puts up the message "Could not find a PPPoE server".
Any ideas? I probably have something wrong in my computer settings.

You should restore your modem to router condition and set the Airport Express to 'Bridge Mode'. A full explanation and the method of doing this is here:

My mac osx 10.7.3 constantly disconnects from airport internet.

my mac osx 10.7.3 constantly disconnects from airport internet. I am able to reconnect every time but do this every 10 mins. i went to try and change channel but no airport base stations were found. i am positive it is not the router as all other devices stay connected. cant find any answers to my problem, just tons of others with the same issue!!!!

You can't discount your router just because the other devices work. The first thing I'd recommend doing is restarting the modem and router, then checking the router has the most up-to-date firmware (need to check that owners manual) and then you can check some other things like DNS settings and router channel conflicts with neighbors.
After restarting the router and double checking the firmware is up-to-date then I'd recommend checking the channel your router is on and what your neighbors use. You can download and use iStumbler, this will scan your area. If you are like most users neither you or your neighbors have changed the router channel from the default 5 or 6 channel. Look to see what channels are not being used and reset the router's channel. If that doesn't work then reset the DNS settings from the defaults your ISP uses. If you get to the point where the DNS does need to be reset here are the instructions:
1. System preferences
2. Network
3. Click Advanced
4. Click DNS tab
5. Click + sign
6. Add 208.67.222.222
7. Click + sign
8. Add 208.67.220.220
9. Click OK.
10. Exit System Preferences
If you want more info on the DNS please read CNET's DNS Article and MacWorld's DNS Troubleshooting articles. If all that fails then you can simply toggle the wi-fi on and off on the w-fi menu in the upper right of your screen.

Android phone constantly disconnects and reconnects to vpn

When using verizon 4G the android anyconnect constantly disconnects and reconnects. When it is connected for about 10 seconds it is working normally. This does not happen on the phone when the user is connected to wifi. It is only on 4G.

I experienced the same problem with my Lumia 800 and the MyWay audio/navi/BT telephone system in my previous and current Citroën C5 (both latest model (PhIII)): http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Nokia-with-Windows-Phone/Bluetooth-and-3G/td-p/1288591 .
I first thought it had something to do with switching from G to 3G and back. But in the end I discovered that BT on the Lumia 800 just disabled itself, while connected to my cars BT system. I have started the procedure to send my Lumia tot Nokia Care. Keep You informed.

Magsafe2 Power Cord constantly disconnects from MBA

What's the deal with this new power cord? There's a horrible seal from the charger to the computer and it's constantly disconnecting. This seems like a horrible engineering mistake. Is it just my cord or is this hapenning to everyone? They seriously need to fix this ASAP. ***?

Mind has done the same since new, it was a real pain at times. This AM I took a screen wipe and cleaned both halves of the connector. Just got a little black on the wipe but it made all the difference, it holds very tightly.
If I had to do it again I think I would just clean one half then try it. To me it seems like it holds too well for such a light computer; I can easily pull it straight across a flat surface with the cord now.

Whilst using airplay my devices constantly disconnect. I am trying to update my software on my apple tv as it says there is an update available but it will not work.

Intermittant issues are often a result of interference. If on wifi try ethernet. Make sure router is up to date. Go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC) to get a report of the network, look for signal strength and noise.

Verizon 4G LTE Router constantly disconnecting and other issues

My Verizon 4G LTE Router constantly disconnects. It requires a power off reset to come back on. Unfortunately, I dumped a perfectly reliable DSL connection for this. Worse yet, it is in a second home, and used to remotely monitor my temperature and security camera. I'm an not there every hour of the day to power cycle this totally unreliable device!
Also,I've had this device for a couple of months now, and have yet to be able to get my security cameras working. Now I can't even tell if my furnace is on - with winter coming if I can't monitor the temperature remotely, my pipes and well pump could be seriously damaged. What is going on with this thing????

Blazey, I appreciate you trying to help.
So, what you are saying is I have a few options:
     1) Do nothing and keep paying for a service and hardware combination I purchased directly from Verizon that doesn't work
     2) Spend $600 on top of what I have already spent to get limping along
     3) Spend $600 + buy another more reliable router that doesn't hang all the time
Where is option #4 - Verizon should fix their problem(s), or release me from my contractual obligation so I can go back to a rock steady DSL connection!
This is totally unacceptable.. I am not trying to use some 3rd party hardware on their network. I purchased this directly from Verizon so I DIDN'T have to worry about it working. They swore to me that this would be a plug in replacement for my DSL. Now after some more reading I discover it is not even close. It does not support port forwarding without shelling out another $500 for a static IP. I can assure you, I did not pay for this with ATT's DSL service. I feel duped and am pretty outraged by this.
What's worse is, I do not have "eye's" on my vacation home almost 300 miles away while this is happening. A little difficult to just "pop" over and reset it - which is what Verizon support suggested I do.

Airplay / mirroring constantly disconnecting

So I'm hoping someone can provide some pointers. I've posted about this before but my problems were simply brushed off as network issues, and I know that's not the case. I have two third gen Apple TVs running the latest updates: one is directly connected to my router, and the other wirelessly over wireless N. I have two Macbooks (an rMBP and a 2012 Macbook Pro) that I use Airplay through, or mirroring. Both disconnect constantly. I'll be playing a song through iTunes and a minute later, it's only coming through my computer speakers. I'll be mirroring a show and suddenly it disconnects. I'm having this problem when Airplaying through iTunes directly, or when holding down option + volume and choosing Apple TV, or when choosing the Airplay icon from the bar near the clock. It does this on both Apple TVs and on both of my Macbooks. My audio receiver in my living room has Airplay options and I have absolutely no problems when I Airplay directly to it... it'll stream all day long.
It was suggested I use a program to ensure that my wireless network is not on the same channel as other networks nearby. Just to humor the idea, I switched from auto channel to wireless channel 4, which no one else is on. No solution. I've been waiting for over a year now hoping an update to the Apple TV fixes this to no avail. I was hoping that upgrading my Macbook to Mavericks would fix it, but no dice. I'm really not impressed with Apple TV. I feel like I've tried every possible solution on my end and have narrowed it down to the Apple TVs just being crummy. Hopefully someone can make a suggestion outside of giving up.
Thanks

I've posted this response on a number of related posts.
After going through a NUMBER of troubleshooting options, I realized that when I recently moved my TV Setup, I had the ATV directly next to my router. The second I moved the ATV more than 6 inches away from my router, AirPlay worked flawlessly.

Internet constantly disconnects. Need expert advice

Hello and thank you for reading this.
The problem I have been having with my home internet for the past year is that it is constantly losing connection. Sometimes it's as often as once an hour, sometimes only a few times a day.
I have logged onto router to see what happens when it disconnects and sometimes Broadband and ISP are both disconnected and sometimes Broadband is connected and ISP is not.
I think it is an issue with the router sharing a 2-in-1 wall adapter with the phone. I have noticed that when the phone rings or gets hung up the internet will usually disconnect at the same time. When the internet goes down sometimes it'll connect back right away, but usually it takes at least 1-5 minutes before connection is reestablished.
Also as further evidence of this theory when using the house phone there is a lot of background static on the line.
I know that this can be caused by DSL signal interfering but I am confused because I use a DSL filter on my phone.
My setup is an actiontec gt784wnv router sharing a 2Wire 2-in-1 wall adapter with a house phone + cordless phone combo.
I have a 2Wire DSL filter hooked up to the phone line going into the wall. and yes, it is correctly installed.
I am hoping someone can verify my suspicions and point out to me the problem in my set up.
Should I try replacing the DSL filter? Mine is a few years old is that past due? Or is it another problem?

I used Google to lookup dsl goes down when phone rings
here are a few of the results back..

IPhone constantly disconnects from itunes

Hi Everyone,
I have an 8gb iPhone which is giving me serious grief with sync'ing. When I connect up the iPhone through the USB cradle itunes will fire up and recognise the iPhone - it then starts disconnecting and reconnecting and you get pop-up windows with errors. Currently i am getting "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because an unknown error occurred (0xE8000001)".
I am trying to connect this to my new MacBook Air running OS X 10.5.2, itunes 7.6.2 and the latest iPhone update.
I have tried lots of things (including calling mac support), what i have done so far is:
- standard unplugging and reconnecting everything
- using a different cradle
- ensuring latest patches on everything
- software reset of the iPhone
- hard reset of the iPhone
- removal and complete re-install of iTunes
- disabling of bluetooth, wireless and networking on the Air (incase it was an IP conflict)
I have tried this on a different computer (mini mac running Windows XP) and I don't have any problems at all.
I am now out of ideas! I have tried a couple of things from the various forums as well but I haven't found anything which is resolving my problem. At the moment I now have an iPhone which has nothing on it because it cannot sync.
Anyone got any ideas????????
Regards
Neil
I am now out of

I have some more information - it's not an issue with iTunes/iPhone or sync cradle. I am now getting the same problem with a USB memory stick - I was quite happily using the memory stick to transfer files between my windows laptop and the airbook and after a while it started doing exactly the same think with it constantly connecting and disconnecting. I was mounting/unmounting correctly on both machines so it's not that - in /var/log/system.log i saw loads of these errors - disk1s1: media is not present.
I have just plugged my iPhone directly into the airbook and I have the following errors in /var/log/system.log - I wonder if this is actually something to do with the last security update which caused me no end of grief trying to connect to my company network.
