Can't connect to a majority of webpages using the RG54gs residential gateway
I'm stumped with the MSI Residential Gateway.
We primarily got it as a gift for my father-in-law who had just aquired a centrino laptop. He started complaining that he was not being able to download his e-mails. Found out later, it was because the gateway shuts off the connection after some time of inactivity and on occassion after a few minutes. There was some improvement after I installed the new firmware (feb release) but it was still there.
I decided to bring it home and test it on my network. I immediately noticed that I couldn't visit all the sites I used to. It seemed that all the secondary sites were no longer available. An example is, opened google (can connect), google searched for RG54gs and come up with the msi website but when I click on the link to the msi website, I get a page not available error. This is also the same thing that happens to the rest of the links. I hooked all connections back to my accton router and I'm able to access all site again.
Can't figure out what the problem is?
There was a suggestion that for Ppoe connection you're suppose to leave the "connect on demand" button disabled. I found a little improvement when it was enabled. All this is using the wired part. Using the wireless is totally useless with almost everything unaccessible even though the signal is excellent.
Sorry for the long story but it's really got me to a point where I don't know what else to do.
Are you sure that this did not happen on the morning of June 15th when the major web sites were actually unavailable due to Akami problems?
Check the RG54GS configuration and see what DNS server it is using. Check the configuration of the PC and make sure it is using the RG54GS as the DNS server.
You don't mention if you are ADSL or cable. An incorrect MTU length (guess at 1400 if your service does not tell you) can cause connections to be dropped.
I use ADSL and could not connect at all until I got the new firmware, since then things have been OK. I am on a very marginal ADSL connection.

HT1947 I can't connect my iPhone to my iTunes using the Remote app
I've looked at all the instructional help threads, done everything multiple times and when I connect my iPhone to iTunes, it still doesn't work. The Remote app icon doesn't show up under devices in iTunes. I have tried to reconfigure my iTunes settings but I can't find the option, "Look for ipod touch, iphone and ipad remotes" under my preferences. HELP!
If your iPhone is not seeing your computer, then something on your network is blocking it. Do you use any security software on your computer? Check your router to make sure that it is not blocking any of the following ports, referred to your router manual if you need to do so:
80 TCP (http)
123 TCP/UDP (time server)
443 TCP (https)
554 TCP/UDP (rtsp)
3689 TCP (daap)
5353 UDP (mdns)
Specifically, home sharing uses TCP port 3689 and UDP port 5353 to communicate with other devices. -
My 13" mackbook pro can't connect to my 55" SONY Bravia using the HDMI cable
Neither unit sees the other. I'm using a brand new Apple HDMI cable for macbook pro. Is the SONY just incompatible?
Thanks...One of the best features we never heard of is the Mac's ability to specify an entire basket of Wi-Fi settings at once, by bundling them into a "Location" settings file.
When you get to a new place, use
System Preferences > Network > Wi-Fi > (assist Me) > (Assistant)...
... and set it up from scratch -- taking care to specify a new "Location" with a meaningful mnemonic name particular to School, Starbux, or whatever will remind you which to choose.
Be sure to close the window and save changes for them to take effect. -
When I connect my iPad2 to my tv using the AV adapter I can hear sound for everything else except movies. I can hear tv episodes, music, YouTube videos, etc. anyone have an idea of how to fix this issue? Thank you for your help in advance.
Just connect the new iPod to your computer and setup the iPod via iTunes (instead of via wifi).
If you want to copy all the infor from an old iPod touch to the inew iPod see:

My ipod 5th gen says it is connected to the internet and i can go on apps that require an internet connection but whe i try to use the weather or another app that uses your current location it cant find me???
If you open the Maps app where does that say you are located?
For location the iPod uses the location of nearby routers that are in Apple's database of routers and their location. Thus it appears that Apple's database is incorrect. You do not have to be connected to the router, just within range.
Apple periodically updates their database based on information they obtain from iPhones, The iPhone has to have turned on the option to send info to Apple. no one has found another way to get the location of a router added/corrected.
You can confirm that by going to well-know place with wifi like Starbucks or McDonalds -
Can I connect a 4 TB USB drive to the airport extreme and use it as a network drive for Time Machine
Can I connect a 4 TB USB drive to the airport extreme and use it as a network drive for Time Machine
Yes, if the drive is formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
The USB port on the Time Capsule is under powered, so you may need use a powered USB hub with the 4 TB drive...even if it has its own power supply. -

How can I connect to Oracle and SQL server at the same time?
I have been trying to find a way to connect to Oracle Database through the developer 2000 and SQL server at the same time. I need to return some data from Oracle Database and some from the Sql Server Database. And update both through SQL. I find there is such a thing as the Oracle Transparent Gateway for SQL server. I can't find it on any of my CD's or through OTN downloadable files. If anyone can point me where to get this. Or tell of another way this can be accomplished I would appreciate it. TIA.

As far as I know you have 3 options depending on your specifications. I don't think option #3 will work if you need to actually join a
SQL Server table to an Oracle table.
1. Oracle Transparent Gateway. I haven't used the Oracle Transparent Gateway but my understanding is that Oracle gateways are
separate purchased products from Oracle. I've never seen any free/development versions of it anywhere. You'll need to contact
your Oracle sales rep about it.
2. Heterogeneous Connectivity. There's something called Heterogeneous Connectivity that could work for you - depends on what
version of Oracle you're on and what OS. You basically set up an ODBC data source on the Oracle server and modify the listener.ora
and tnsnames.ora files. You can then create a database link to SQL Server just like you would to any other Oracle database. You can
check your Oracle documentation for how this works. There's also some very good documents on Metalink that tell you how to do this
as well as a Heterogeneous Connectivity forum on this site.
3. Use the exec_sql package available in Developer 2000. This allows you to open and execute cursors to remote databases within
Developer. We have an account validation process that uses this - when a person enters an account number in a form while logged
into Oracle it validates the account is valid in our main accounting DB2 database. We also pull HR information from DB2 into Oracle
this way. If you're using Forms 6i exec_sql is a built-in command, in Forms 5.0 and 5.5 you have to add it as an attached library to
the form. I think you also need the OCA options installed from the Developer software to have access to the library in Forms 5.0 and
5.5. The library will be in the $ORACLE_HOME\oca20\plsqllib directory for these versions. The Developer documentation should have
additional information.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by this - do you mena connect to the Mac to access streaming media or perhaps you were wondering if the AppleTV can behave as a wireless extender to give network access to the PS3 - it can't.
If you are looking for media server solutions there are several available that run on Mac, some free some commercial.
Free include:

Can you connect your Ipad to a projector using Bluetooth
Can you connect your Ipad to a projector using Bluetooth, if so what projectors, My situation is that I want to connect my Ipad3 wireless to a projector where there is no wifi available so the apple TV and airplay won't work.
No.
If you have an Apple TV, get an Apple Airport Express wireless router which is small enough to fit on your pocket. You can set up a wireless network without having to have internet for your iPad and Apple TV to be connected to.
Or use a wired connection. -
I can't import vertical photos to my iPad using the camera connection kit. Horizontal photos import fine, but verticals have a red exclamation mark, and do not import. Help!?
I have the same problem and apple needs to fix this - but in the mean time you can manually select the vertical photos then "import - import selected" and you can get your verticals. We need a better fix. THIS IS A BUG!

ichat can't connect to my AIM account, gives me the error "Cannot log in to AIM. General error. Try again." Please help!
HI,
Your specs say OS X 10.6.8 which would be iChat 5.x.x in Snow Leopard.
This version by default tries to login in to the AIM server called login.oscar.aol.com on port 5190 using the TCP protocol.
An internet connection is made up of 65535 of these so called ports (more like TV stations)
Most routers have ports up to port 1024 which means some of the iChat Login Ports are above this.
Two ways to Solve this.
1) Change the Login port iChat uses
2) Change the way the router opens ports.
For 1) go to iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts
Highlight/select the AIM account.
In the Info Tab deselect the "Enable this Account" to make sure you are Logged out.
In the Server Settings change the Port to 443
You can decide not to use SSL as well if you wish (the server name automatically loses the leading "s")
For 2) log in to the routers set up pages and make sure it is doing UPnP
This allows the computers to tell the router which ports to open. It also allows multiple devices to use the same ports.
For iChat this allows it to Screen Share as this happens on an unlisted random port.
Opps forgot a couple of things.
If you are using an APple ID registed at Apple ending in @mac.com @me.com or @iCloud.com then the passowrd at Apple has to be 16 characters or less to work with the AIM servers.
Additionally the iCloud issued @me.com and @iCloud.com one require you to use iChat 6 in Lion or Messages in Mountian Lion due to changes Apple made to the security of letting AIM "read" the passwords.
