Can not connect to iChat

Hello. I have had this issue for months now. I can not connect to my iChat account or even AIM account, just a few rare times.
It says "Lost connection with iChat/AIM"
"The connection to the host was unexpectedly lost."
I have had this for a long time now. This annoys me. I have no problems to connect to the internet. So what is it?

With AT&T PPPoE DSL service and a SpeedStream modem/router like the one you have, you probably should put the SpeedStream modem/router in bridge mode and then configure the Netgear router to handle the PPPoE login and password.
You should be able to access the SpeedStream from a Web browser by typing in the IP address on the bottom of the modem and then enter the password located on the bottom as well.
The following instructions are based on another SpeedStream model, but they may be close enough for you:
1) Click the PPP locations button.
2) The modem may ask your for the Modem Access Code again. If so, type it in again and click continue.
3) Select the radio button labeled, "Bridged Mode (PPPoE is not used)"

    ah yes, i had the flets program last year i believe. then i switched to OCN.
    if you want to try to connect with another chat program besides iChat, we can try that. you can send me an email with an im name to [email protected] i had some problems with flets and had to call them about it, but it didnt really get resolved so i just switched when i moved to a bigger city.

  • Can't connect to ichat via gmail account

    Hi!
    I can't connect to ichat via gmail account.I created a new account via Preferences window in ichat settings but still can't do it. A pop-up window is shown and it asks to enter a password as ichat cannot log in on my gmail account.I know that i enter a correct password.  has anubody such a problem? how can i find out if it is a problem with the password, or my account name.

    Hi,
    1) The Google Talk option needs to be Enabled in your Google settings.
    2) The name (ID) you enter in Messages or iChat needs to be exactly as you see it when you are logged in to the Google Mail web page.
    (there is a difference between @gmail.com and @googlemail.com IDs)
    3) If you are using the Specific App password method you need to correct password.
    4) In the server Settings (App Menu > Preferences > Accounts > Google Account > Server Settings) try setting port 443 if the 5223 one is not working.

  • Can not connect outside of Lan to with rtsp PVC2300

    I have the following cameras set up at my office
    1 - PVC2300
    2 - WVC54GC
    3 - AXIS 225FD
    I have a BEFSR81 Router
    I have a computer on Windows XP running the surv software to record.  Everything with that is good.
    I also have 2 desktops.
    I have been playing around with the rtsp feed with the pvc2300, but have run into a few problems.
    1(a).  I can not connect outside of the LAN with RTSP with either the VLC player or quicktime.  It connects and asks for a password and then just hangs.
    The PVC 2300 local address is 192.168.1.102 with ports 554, 5000-5010, and 6970-6999 forwarded on the router.  What am I missing?
    1(b) I can successfully connect with my blackberry bold, although when I try to change the default port (554) to something else (I would like to RTSP my the AXIS camera as well,  so I will need a different port) it connects on my bold, but then says server is unresponsive. What am I missing here?
    2.  The voice with the PVC 2300  using http outside of the LAN (internet) lags quite baddly and is choppy.  This happens without fail when I have all 4 cameras running, which I understand is upload bandwidth problem.  But it also happens when I connect to just the PVC2300.  I do have a connection to all 4 cameras inside the LAN to the XP running the surv software, but that is it. Is the my router acting buggy?  I have unplugged the router for 5 sec, and it fixed it for a while, but it always comes back.  I have donwloaded the latest firmware for the router and PVC 2300 and that didnt seem ot fix it either.  Suggestions?
    3.  This is more of a question.  I know the mobile streaming of the PVC 2300 does not include voice.  Is there an app or way that I can just get it to my Blackberry.  Even if I didnt get the video, voice is sometimes more important to me.
    I hope Ive been clear enough in my description, Im very self taught (google is amazing), but I am in no way a techy.
    Thank you in advace for your help.
    Colin

    Glad to hear you are successfully using the SWVMS16. That program is really cool and useful. I just cant tell you how that model of Linksys Router can work for you here (that is not a model we support on this community as its not small business)
    Regarding RTSP access, are you also including the mobile.sdp in the URL?
    RTSP:///mobile.sdp   I noticed in the camera GUI with the newer firmware, you can specify an access code under mobile settings after checking the enable mobile streaming box.  That word may be what you have to include, so check that too...
    Try this locally first and then remotely is the easiest way to see if you got it right, then it just becomes a routing or firewall issue to figure out.
    But your forwarded ports look right and should be opened.
    Under advanced settings, you can define an alternate HTTP, HTTPS or RTSP port
