BT Infinity 2 but only getting 16 Mbps wired, can ...
I just got my BT Infinity 2 installed today. After running several speed tests on a wired connection via a ethernet cable, it seems my download speed is set to 16 Mbps and my upload speed to less than 0.6 Mbps. Considering the cost of BT Infinity 2 is quite high compared to the next best one, is it possible I can downgrade but still get the same speeds?
When I enter the also newly-installed phone number in the BT Speed Checker, it tells me I can only get up to 8 Mbps downloads. But when I claim I don't have a phone number, and just enter my Flat # and Post Code, it tells me I can get 16-20 Mbps downloads. I don't understand why it's giving me two numbers.
It's a bit sad I'm paying for up to 75 Mbps speeds but I can only get 16 Mbps even when wired. And actually when I ran a speed test wireless, I was getting the same speeds of 16 Mbps. I'm in the same room as the Hub so maybe that's why. No other connections are using my wireless either. Not even my phone atm.
Either way, I guess I want to know the answer to either one or both of the two options:
1)Why am I getting only 20% of the "up to 75 Mbps speeds"?
and/or
2) How to go about downgrading to maybe BT Infinity 1 instead of 2 so I pay less but still get the exact same speeds of 16 Mbps?
P.S. Is it possible my speed will increase over the next few days? Since the Post Code speed test said up to 20 Mbps, I'm assuming that's as high as it can go...

how to get screen content onto external VGA screen? Do have thunderbolt-VGA adapter but only get screensaver across
VGA and DVI do not carry sound. Only HDMI.
Use a minidisplay-to-HDMI adapter. Then when the TV is connected to the system use "System Prefences > Sound > Output" to select the TV for sound.
Or connect speakers to the output port of the MBP. -
how do you upgrade OS X 10.4.11 tiger to a higher version of operating system such as OS X 10.5.6 as have tried running the upgrade disc on imac 5,1 with intel processor but only get message saying this cannot be installed with no further explanation ?
Retail Leopard disc looks like this;
(The disc itself has the same logo). If the one you've got is grey it simply won't work.
Given the retail and second hand prices of Leopard (usually some on Amazon MP), you'll probably find it cheaper to go directly to Snow Leopard, although there could be software updates and printer driver problems that could nullify the difference. -

Servers connected to Nexus 5548 only getting 200 Mbps of throughput
Servers connected to NExus 5k were only getting 100 Mbps of throughput. So I disabled Flow control recieve on all the ports. After this we are getting 200 Mbps of speed. The servers are connected throuh 10 gig port. Could you guys please suggest why the throguhput is still low? Atleast we should get 1Gbps of thrpoughput.
Hi Adam,
I think we probably need a little more information to go on. Can you answer the following?
What type of servers and NICs?
What OS are you running on the servers?
What cables do you have from the servers to the switch?
Are the two servers in the same subnet or is the traffic between them routed?
If routed, is that in the Nexus 5548 or some other router?
How are you testing throughput?
Presumably you're not seeing any errors on the switch ports that the servers are connected to?

I have tranferred journal from iPhoto to iTunes but only get files cannot get the journal to open up
I have followed the steps to transfer journals from iphoto toitunes but cannot open up the file. Only get individual jpegs How can I see the Journal as it appears on the ipad on my computer?
Yes, sharing to iTunes will only transfer the photos, not the journal.
If you want to view the pages, publish your journal on the web and view it with your web browser. Then you can save it as a web archive.
See the iPhoto help on how to publish the journal on the web - you will need to enable iCloud to be able to do this.
Publish a new journal with iCloud

I am not sure, if you can publish Journals to iCloud using IOS 5 - just see, if it is available. Some iCloud features will not work with IOS 5 (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4759)

My ipod classic crashes after about 2-3 days of being attached to my Kenwood KDC-248C receiver in my Pickup. There are about 2700+ songs on the Ipod, but only get through the first 200 to 300 songs. The screen fades, but there is still power and a charge. Does anyone have a clue because I don't.?
There seem to be compatibilty isuue with KDC receiver and Ipod Classic firmware 1.1.2.
Here is an earlier post on the same problem.

When I start iTunes I get the following message. "A required iTunes component is not installed. Please repair or reinstall iTunes (-42404)". I have installed the latest version of iTunes but still get this message. Can anyone help?
Hello mustangcim243,
iTunes has various components bundled with it that it requires for general usage. I advise that we completely remove iTunes and all of these related components, verify that they have been removed, then reinstall. To do so, please follow the steps in this article:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
Note: it is important to remove the 7 components in order. Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
If the above does not resolve your issue, I recommend we reset the SC Info folder:
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases

(See Step 4: Remove the SC Info folder)

Lost newly purchased Iphone5, Reported complain in police station but not getting proper responce. Can apple help me out for this?
Oh, don't worry. I know exactly. I'm a retired law enforcement officer after 30 years. I didn't mean for them to allow you to use the Internet, I meant for them to assign an officer to try and track the device for the victim. Again, that would require the victim to provide their Apple ID and password, which most would not want to provide.
Pinging the phone as you mention is only when there is probable cause and that is done through the carrier.
I'm glad to see someone also understand that a stolen cell phone is not as important to law enforcement as it is to the victim. It is unfortunate as smartphones get more expensive. Hopefully as iOS 7 makes it debut later this year, the work Apple has done will have some impact on smartphone theft. Other manufactures and carriers are starting to improve here in the states. It never was something carriers worryed about with blacklisting. This is where they were a step ahead in Europe. -
