squeezebox radio wirelessly-really annoying!
Did you set it up correctly?
If you use a different router with ADSL, then you need to make sure that the authentication is set to PPPoA.
You can use a user name of [email protected] and a password of bt

Unable to connect Logitech Smart radio to Home Hub...

I am trying to connect my Logitech smart radio via wireless to my homehub 3.
It has connected successfully in the past but is now failing to connect with the comment "unable to connect using password nnn"
nnn = my wirless key.
I have reset the radio to the factory defaults, powered off and on the hub all to no avail.
Other devices can connect via wireless using this key.
Any help would be apprecaited
Thanks

Connect Time Capsule to BT Home Hub ?

I recently purchased the Time Capsule and want to connect it to my BT Home Hub, using the Airport Utility on the CD that comes with Time Capsule I follow all the on screen prompts about adding it to my existing wireless network. The Time Capsule updates and then a message comes up about it re-starting, after this message closes the Airport Utility shows an error message and says that no Apple wireless device can be found. I have to reset the Time Capsule for it to show up on the list again
My BT Home Hub is WEP protected and I've seen a few posts and forums around the web saying that the Time Capsule is WPA protected. If that was the case why does it give the option for WEP passwords.
Anybody else had this problem or knows of a workaround ? - I don't want to have to change my security settings on my BT Home Hub to WPA/ WPA2 as this will have a knock on issue with other items I use on my wireless network.
Any assistance would be appreciated as I spent 5 hours last night playing around with settings to no avail - All I managed to connect was the Time Capsule to my Mac (just to make sure it was working).
Regards
Andrew

Silly question, but how should I initially set up the Time Capsule to set it as a secondary router ? by creating a new wireless network or something else - do I need to attached the ethernet cable from my main wireless BT Home Hub for intial set up ? *NOTE: I currently have the Time Capsule attached by wireless to my Mac so therfore cannot access the internet at the same time without changing network.
I'm currently at work so forgive the abbreviated exact terms for the selection process for adding the Time Capsule, should I select the first option from the list when prompted ie "to add or replace device on wireless network..." as oposed to selecting "add device to existing wireless network" ?
I understand about setting it to "bridge" just wondered the best way to get to that point to allow me to do that.
Any further assistance would be very much appreciated

Anyone had problems connecting iPad 2 to BT home Hub?

My mum is having difficulties setting up iPad to BT Home Hub 2.
While it recognises the network it asks for IP Addressn Subnet Mask, Router and DNS information.
BT claim they cannot help but need Apple to fix...
Really?

I would not rely on the hotspot map, as its not very accurate, and you have to be very close to a BT Wifi hotspot, to get a connection.
If it works at home, then your ipad must be working properly.

Problem with password in home hub manager

Hi
I have a pc and a laptop connected wirelessly to homehub 3. connection is fine having swapped the hub for a new one.
The problem I have now is that when i go into hh manager on the laptop, I cannot enter a password to get to settings.
I get admin as user and cursor won't work in password panel.
On the pc it works fine. It's no biggy as I can acess settings on the pc but anyone know why it is happening?
This is the screen I get. Different to the usual one.
To prevent unauthorised access, your BT Home Hub's settings are protected by a password. To change the settings in your BT Hub Manager, you'll need to enter your admin password, then click the 'OK' button on this page. Please remember the password is case sensitive.

Swapped from a what version hub? It does sound like you may of been using a v1 or v1.5 hub prior to using the hub3
What happens if you go to saved passwords on your laptop, locate the 'admin' one, make a note of it just in case and delete it. Does this allow you to access the hub manager now?

Connection to email via iPhone Home Hub 3 BTInfini...

Suddenly unable to connect to my email via my iPhone. Connecting wirelessly via Home Hub 3 to BTInfinity. Get the message 'Yahoo server unavailable'. My wife can access her email on her iPhone and we can both get to email via desktop PC connected wirelessly to HUB. Settings on my iPhone identical to my Wifes. Any ideas why mines has stopped working please?

Could just be the intermittent, random problem with the Yahoo! servers that's been discussed at great length on the forum, eg here. Seems to have improved but problems are still being reported. Hopefully it will soon go away; if not you should get some expert advice if you report back here.

Connecting hi-fi amp to home hub 4

Hi, first time post, home somebody can help.
I've recently purchased a TEAC CR-H700DAB tuner/amplifier that should be able to connect wirelessly to my home computer(s) to stream recorded music.
When switching the device to the relevant function it displays "Network problem".
According to the YouTube clip at:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nygu__aHbFo
...the way to set up an initial connection is to switch the amp on (with its antenna raised) and check in your router to find the IP address of the new device - the example shown in the clip is a Netgear router, but I assume that the BT Home Hub ought to work in a similar way. However, the only devices it picks up are the two existing laptops.
I'm at an impasse! Any suggestions?
Mike

Yes, I have the manual (although mine is slightly different).
When I follow that initial setup, I get as far as (on p. 34):
When you select "Wireless":
1. Turn the MULTI-JOG k-n-o-b [1] to select "Search AP", and then press the ENTER button.
2. Turn the MULTI-JOG k-n-o-b [1] to select the access oint to connect, and then press the ENTER button.
After (1) above, it says "Searching..." and then "Not Found" - which I assume means that it is not connecting to the Home Hub?
My laptop, which is in the same room, connects to the Home Hub with no problem.
[1] The forum software absurdly censors that word to **bleep** !!!

Anyone else had problems with range on Home Hub 2?

I've just received a Home Hub 2.0 today in order to connect BT Vision and was excited to connect it and get my Vision box set up. Having had a Voyager 2091 router before, I disconnected this and proceeded to follow the instructions to the letter to set up the Home Hub. After an hour of failed attempts to connect wirelessly to my laptop, I eventually managed to connect and moved downstairs to my usual location in order to finish preparations to set up everything needed. Looking at a cross-section of our house, it looks like a square divided into four quarters, with the room in which the router is located (the spare room) in the upper left and the room I normally work in (the living room) in the lower right.
I usually sit quite close to the wall of the living room closest to the spare room and the router has always been located near the doorway of the spare room, allowing the least amount of distance between my laptop and the router. When setting up the Home Hub, I made sure that everything was in the same locations as usual. However, on moving downstairs, by the time I was halfway downstairs, I had lost the connection to the Hub, and by the time I had reached my usual spot, it couldn't even find the Hub when I tried to reconnect. Bearing in mind that I have always had (and indeed currently have at the moment, from the same spot as I just mentioned) an 'excellent' connection to the net using my router, I can only assume the problem is with the broadcasting range of the Hub. Has anyone else had the same problem, and if so, can you recommend how I can rectify it? I've tried all the directions I can find but to no avail.

HomeHubs are notoriously variable in their performance. Some of this may be due to the antennae, which in some models are stuck to the case with double-sided sticky-tape, falling off and not being in the correct orientation to give the best range.
I looked at this in some detail last year here. Most HomeHub 1.0s and 1.5s I looked at then had very poor range when compared to other wireless G routers.
Since then, HomeHub 2.0As have become a little more common and they show similar variation to the earlier models and some have an even shorter range. If you get a good one, the range isn't bad. If you are unlucky enough to have, or get, a bad one - complain.

Problems with BT infinity Home hub and Apple TV

I've just changed over from Sky Broadband to BT Infinity. Broadband speed is about 37 which is fine and when using the Apple TV I have no problems connecting to the Internet for youtube or downloading films but I cannot access my music or films on my Computer in iTunes. It doesn't show up at all under Computer on the Apple TV. Homesharing is turned on and all worked perfectly OK before when using the Sky Router.
Are there some settings which I need to put in the home hub to allow access to my computer and/or iTunes ?

I has a similar problem recently with my Apple TV not picking up changes to my network until I had reset it by using the remote and pressing "menu" and "down" for 6 seconds described here.

Connect a printer to Bt Home Hub usb plug and acess the printer on my mac

Hi,
I have the new BT Home Hub and i connected a printer in the usb socket of the hub.
Does anyone know how i can print with the printer.
The printer is a HP Deskjet Series
And i have a iMac

I have a BT Home Hub 2.0 and usually connect my printer to my hub via a LAN cable. However, a friend has just switched to BT and asked me whether this was possible. If you plug in the printer via USB the Homehub Manager page states that +*No USB device connected*+ and if you look on BT's website they say this:
{quote:title=BTs website post:}
The BT Home Hub, including the latest BT Home Hub 2.0, aren't print servers. Connecting a printer to the USB socket won't work, and BT can't help with this.
There are reports from some customers elsewhere on the Internet claiming they've managed to share printers in this way. But the success might be specific to the printer used by these customers, and the Hub doesn't support this feature.
{quote}
However, the following link provides shows that it is possible: http://www.wallaceit.co.uk/witarticle80.aspx
I'd be interested to see if this works.

Connect Netgear access point to Home Hub?

Before I switched to using a Home Hub 2, I was using a Netgear router/modem (DG834G).
And I also had a Netgear WPN802 access point connected to the DG834G router/modem (via ethernet cable), and this enabled me to connect to internet using wifi from another location in my house. Just seemed to work.
But I can't seem to get this to work with the Home Hub. When the access point is plugged in to the Home Hub, it doesn't seem to show up in the Devices part of the Home Hub, and I can't connect to the access point via its default IP address (192.168.0.231). I can't see anything in the Home Hub to configure to make this work. On the access point, the ethernet light is lit, which suggests that it can "see" something on the other end of the cable (and the light goes out when I unplug the other end from the Home Hub).
Any hints?
Thanks.

You will need to change the default IP address of the Netgear WPN802 so that it is in the same subnet as the home hub.
The full details on how to do this are here http://kbserver.netgear.com/pdf/wpn_802_ref_manual.pdf
Look at page 23 and change the IP address in the Basic settings.
You could change it to 192.168.1.231 if you wish. It would still not show on the home hub because it is manually assigned. But it should work fine.
I have an additional Belkin wireless access point on my hub, which uses the address 192.168.1.200, and that works fine.

Remote Desktop Connection Problem in Windows 7 Home Premium

First off i have changed most of my computers in the house to static IP addresses. I only configured one static IP address to the router which is my laptop out of the two computers i am working with. Desktop and Laptop. Second I have enabled the Remote Desktop
on both computers and changed the firewall setting for the computer or the anti virus software. I tried the netstat -a but dont understand how to read it and when I did i never saw a host or port number for 3389 at all.
Then finally I went into the registry/regedit to try to see if I had the port number available and port 3389 was not there is just had #"2" in hexadecimal and the file says ehshell.exe which I have no clue what that means. When i click on that it
does not have the Port Number as the Title nor the port number itself as decimal which should be 3389 as decimal data but instead it has 2 as the data for hexadecimal. I can change the data for the port numbe and change to 3389 but I can't change the title
from ehshell.exe in the decimal value to PortNumber? The letters on my keyboard just will not coroperate or respond but it will highlight the word and thats it but not make a change to the data value ehshell.exe to something else.
Is it supposed to do that or what I wonder does anybody have any solutions to this so I can get my Remote Desktop running as soon as possible and no I do not have an Nvidia graphics card. I dont know what the problem is so can somebody please help
me? I need it for my Windows Server 2008 R2 class next semester and I need to be able to remote to other computers and devices.

Problem connecting to Home Hub 2 with a Kindle Fir...

My parents have just bought a Kindle Fire HD and I'm helping them set it up, but I'm having to do it via Skype video because I live a long way away. This is their only wifi device; their PC is connected to their Home Hub 2 via Ethernet cable.
They've got wifi connectivity, but when they try to access the internet on the Kindle they always get directed to the BT Fon login page. Would I be correct in thinking that this is because they're actually connected to *somebody else's* Home Hub 2 in the same street? My parents left the SSID of the Home Hub as the factory default, and that's what they looked for in the list of available networks, so presumably one of their neighbours also has a Home Hub 2 and also hasn't changed the SSID?

OK, interesting. So each hub broadcasts two separate SSIDs? I'm sure they said they were connecting to "BTHomehub2-NHRR"
Yes, that is the case, unless they opted out of BT wifi/FON. If they never intend to use any of the free BT hotspots when away from home, then opting out will remove those extra SSIDS.
The automatic connection to BT FON is a common problem. On most devices there is an option to "forget" the BT FON/BT wifi connections, and the device should not re-connect to them.
See if you can get them to do that first, then try and reconnect to BTHomehub2-NHRR, entering the wireless key when prompted.
Do they have any other wireless devices connected to the home hub 2?

Home Hub 3 - Connection dropping from N to G?

Hello all; I hope someone can help me with this!
I have recently installed the new Home Hub 3 (replacing a Home hub 1). I have it connected by wifi to a Mac which has a built-in 802.11 connection. The reason I changed to Home Hub 3 is that next month I am getting a digital box for the TV which works best using a 802.11 N connection speed.
Normally, the connection is by 802.11 N (I can see this on the Mac SysInfo), and I get a solid 5 bar connection. However, sometimes this drops to 1 or 2 bars, and the wifi speed drops from N to G. When this happens, I cannot change it back to a N speed without rebooting.
Does anyone know what might be causing this? It seems to be random. The computer is not moving, and is only about 12 feet from the Home Hub with clear air in between. Is it likely to be the Home Hub which is causing the change, or the Mac? Is there anyway to "lock" the Homehub to only broadcast on N?
Thanks for any answers.

the only problem changing the BT Home hub 3 wireless channel manually it stops the new software from finding the best channel one of the features of the new hub. they advise this in the product page details (section taken shown below).What i found was to experiment hub positions my example i have 3 story house so i placed the hub on the second floor away from fridge /microwave/ wireless phone etc on the 1st floor. the wireless computers are on floor 2 & 3, it improved reception by 50%. the computer down on floor 1 is connected by ethernet.
Change wireless channel
Your Hub is always monitoring the wireless channel it’s using and if it detects too much
interference it will automatically change to another channel. If you want to manually
change to a channel of your choice, follow the steps below, but this will stop the
automatic channel selection feature.
1 Access Hub Manager by typing bthomehub.home into your web browser.
2 Click Settings.
3 If asked, enter your Hub Admin password. You’ll find this on the bottom of your Hub.
4 In the Basic Settings menu, click Change the wireless channel to avoid interference.
5 Click the Refresh button.
6 Wait a minute for your device to pick up the new channel.
