Connectivity issues because of many users on at the same time.

I notice this has been getting worse and worse, and last night my wife almost didn't get on in time to finish a college assignment.My wife noticed that there were about 7 or 8 people online at the same time. It seems anytime there are 5 or more we cannot connect at all.
 After a few hours we noticed there were only 2 people online, and what do you know we got on right away. Is it possible that over the years we have exceeded our bandwidth and now are just too overloaded? It sure seems that way, and was pretty much proven last night.
 Is there anything I can do about this? love to switch to FIOS ,but I'm afraid our mayor is in bed with Comcast (so to speak), so chances of getting FIOS here are pretty much nonexistant.

Without knowing which router you have (Verizon has supplied several different DSL router/modems), it is hard to give specific directions for your specific router.
1). You can determine your speed by connecting to your router (http://192.169.1.1) and logging in.
Usually the user id is Admin and the password is passwd or password, but on some routers there is a sticker that identifies the password. If nothing works, try reseting the router. Once you are logged in, print out the 'transceiver stats', that will tell you what the speed on the link between you and the central office is. If you post that information, we can also tell you if your line can support a higher speed than you currently have.
2). Once you are connected to the router, you can also check the wireless settings. If you have never set it up, it may be an unsecured network, in which case anyone can use it. You probably want to change that. While everyone says how wonderful WPA2 is, the reality is that any security, even WEP will very effectively discourage and effectively prevent others from using your wireless network.
Good luck.

  • How many users can view the same report at the same time in obiee answers

    Hi All,
    How many users can view the same report at the same time in obiee answers..?
    What is max and minimum number of users.
    Do we need to increase any system configuration.
    Thanks,
    Jagadees.

    Hi,
    Many users can view report at same time.It depends on the server if it can accept those many users at same time.If number of users increases OC4J may not work properly.

  • Connecting to multiple Airport Express base stations at the same time?

    I want to be able to use wireless internet and stream music to my stereo at the same time, but I only have a single internet connection behind my stereo and it's connected to the Pay TV. My options seem to be getting a new line installed behind the stereo so I can insert this into the same Airport Express base station I use for my music, or buying a second Airport Express base station and connecting it to one of the other internet connections in the room, then connecting to both Airport Express base stations at the same time.
    Is this possible? Are there other alternatives?
    Many thanks

    Nate, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Once you have a network, you can connect multiple AirPort Express (AX) to that network (wirelessly or via Ethernet). When your computer joins that network it can access all the AX.
    You could take your current internet connection and run it into an inexpensive router with multiple Ethernet ports (not the AX). If this is a wireless router then your AXs could be located elsewhere and connect as wireless clients to that network. Once you computer joined that network it could stream music to the AXs.

  • Several user status at the same time

    Hi Export,
    As I found, we can only choose one status from the list in WBS. Is there any config can make it possible to select multi status in one time?
    Thanks,
    Liang

    Hi
    yes you can select more then one user status at the same time
    For example you create user status like this in OK02
    1     INIT     Initiative
    2     DRPR     Draft Proposal
    3     PLAN     Fully planned & costed
    4     AFEA     502-Approved
    5     RELE     Released for execution
    6     HOLD     On hold
    You can select the user status from the above list
    If you set the Initial status flag for the user status
    If a status is marked as an initial status, it is automatically activated in an object when the object is created
    Thanks

  • Can I connect multiple bluetooth headsets to my iPod at the same time?

    Can I connect multiple bluetooth headsets to my iPod at the same time?

    After 1 or 2 reboot system I managed was enter my MacBook Pro my AppleID and it is connected I managed so to have the flow of "Stream Photo" from my iPhone 4 S to my iPad 2 on the MacBook. But incomprehensible how the function "find my Mac" not recognize the MacBook Pro in "iCloud.com" or App in the iPhone 4 / iPad 2. Thus I do little "see the iMac, iPhone 4 and my iPad 2" and not the Macbook Pro !?!

  • CS3 Camera Raw Too Many Files Open at the Same time alert!!!

    Please help me. I keep getting this error message in Camera Raw that says there are too many files open at the same time - but I only have 100 open:( Please help - I was getting this error with CS2 and thought upgrading to CS3 would fix it and it didn't!!!

    > "10 or 100 - you can quickly go through a stack of images in ACR and make any desired changes you want. Whether making the same or similar adjustment to similar files, or making radically different adjustments to different images as appropriate".
    I've done this with far more than 100! I think my maximum is 425 raw files, invoking ACR from Bridge without Photoshop even loaded, and it worked well. (I've also done 115 JPEGs in order to crop them under extreme time constraints).
    It can be very slick. For example, if I use a ColorChecker a number of times in a shoot, it is easy to select just the set (perhaps 100 or so) that a particular ColorChecker shot applies to and set the WB for all of them.
    Furthermore, in case people don't know, you can set ratings on raw images while many of them are open in ACR. (Just click under the thumbnail). It isn't as powerful as Lightroom, but it is not to be dismissed.
    I suspect that it is possible to apply sensor-dust-healing to lots of images in the same way, and certainly it is easy to apply presets based on various selections.
    Perhaps with AMG (Adobe Media Gallery) it will be sensible to use the above capability to process 100s of raw files, then create a set of web pages for the best of them, in not much more time than it would have taken in Lightroom. I judge that Lightroom is the "proper" tool for the job (perhaps after 1.1!), but Bridge+ACR can go a long way.

  • Firefox has suddenly stopped connecting on one of three user accounts on the same computer. That account still connects with Safari - but not Firefox. A clean-install has not solved the problem. Help?

    Three user accounts on the same computer all link to a single copy of Firefox 3.6.8 - but one of them has suddenly lost its ability to use the program. Firefox opens in that account, but it cannot connect to the Internet. 'Done' appears at the lower left of a blank Firefox page [it's set to load a blank page initially], as though a page had finished downloading ... but Firefox does not actually generate any Internet activityx.
    Previously, the Firefox connection for this account was smooth and reliable. I haven't added, upgraded or downloaded any new programs, nor made any other computer changes in recent weeks or months.
    Puzzlingly - that same account still connects successfully to the Internet via Safari. And the other accounts on the same computer continue to use Firefox with no problem - including a test user-account that I set up today to help troubleshoot the problem. The blockage is restricted solely to Firefox with that one user account.
    Following your Support page instructions, I did a clean-install of Firefox 3.6.8, removing both the existing Firefox 3.6.8 and the Library/Application Support/Firefox folder. Going the extra mile, I checked all accounts to be certain that no Firefox folders remained in any of them - then emptied the Trash and restarted before installing a freshly downloaded 3.6.8. But blimey - the blockage still persists for that one user account.
    Firefox shows no visible cookies that might influence the connection. [It's set to delete all cookies upon closing anyway.] And I see no obvious instructions in Mac's firewall or any software program to refuse access to Firefox. The computer is stand-alone, not networked. And in any case, Firefox works just fine in the two other user accounts.
    Deleting the hobbled user account is not feasible. So what is causing this roadblock? Did I miss a step in the clean-install? How can that account resume using Firefox?
    Thanks in advance for your advice.

    If files already have been downloaded then remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder.
    You can also delete active-update.xml and possibly updates.xml (stores the update history).

  • Connecting Ipod and External Hard Drive Source at the Same Time

    As I have a laptop computer with limited hard drive space, I connected an external hard drive source to store my music and photos and other non essentials. I received a 5G IPod for Christmas and the only issue I am having is that my IPod will not work if it is connected to my computer at the same time as my external hard drive. This poses a difficulty for me because I do not have the space on my computer to store the music that I would like to add to my IPod. If anyone knows how to resolve this issue, I would be eternally grateful. Please forgive me if this topic has already been addressed.

    as of right now this cantb be fixed.... i have the same probelem... we and thousands of other people are going to have to wait until this relase a fix for this probelem... sorry i feel for you

  • DS - 2 users working at the same time

    Hi,
    I'm using DS 4.0 SP3 Patch 4 and I'm wondering if it possible to use DS by two person in the same time?
    I make some process and other person make another project but we use the same repository database.
    Is it only depende on license version, or I should use my own repository database, and second person their own?
    regards

    From the What's new in DS 4.1 Guide:
    Support for Windows User Access Control (UAC)
    Windows Vista and newer versions of Windows include a security feature known as User Access Control (UAC). In general, UAC addresses issues in system stability and security by running most applications with standard user rights instead of administrator-level rights, as in previous versions of Windows. In this version of SAP BusinessObjects Data Services, UAC support has been improved so that standard users do not require elevated access rights in order to run Data Services applications such as the Designer.
    Previous versions of Data Services stored all configuration options in a location that required elevated access rights to modify. Because of this, standard users could run applications such as the Designer only in elevated access mode.
    The Data Services installation program now creates additional environment variables: DS_COMMON_DIR on all platforms, and DS_USER_DIR on Windows platforms.
    User-specific configuration options have been moved to a new file in DS_USER_DIR, where standard users have full access by default. This allows a standard user to run applications such as the Designer without requiring elevated access.
    Means you need to upgrade to 4.1, and not 4.2 as of my previous post (my mistake).

  • Multiple iTunes open in multiple 'user accounts'- at the same time

    We have three people in our family, each with their own iPod/iphone, we sync our iPod/iphone on the same computer but in different ‘user accounts’ in xp.
    Now the problem is ; only one iTunes program can run at a time, so if one person is downloading a podcast and another logs into their user account then they can’t open iTunes because it is open in another user account already.
    There must be a way to run multiple iTunes at the same time in different user accounts?
    Anyone?

  • Multiple users draw at the same time

    Hello there,
    I am very sorry if this is the wrong place for posting this question.
    I am trying to create a java2D application where multiple users can collaborate to draw on canvas (at the same time from two or more machines). The first user should act as a server and all other users should be the clients. I want the drawing to occur in real time. I have some ideas (like using Monitors and java synchronization) on how to do it but I am not sure if this is the right way to approach such a problem.
    Also I know that I will need something like a Buffer to store changes and a way of communication...
    I would appreciate it if anyone could help me. Guidance or a simple example that can help me to understand the logic behind it so I can develop it myself.
    Thanks in advance for your time...

    I've implemented this project to provide "whiteboard" capability to an existing chat client. The "model" for the drawing was an SVG document (rendered using Apache Batik) and the communication between clients was the SVG (XML) snippets and their location in the document.
    Only difference is that one-to-one was supported with clients. One-to-many required a server-side component, but there's no reason one client couldn't have acted as the server.
    So my recommendation is SVG, then your communication layer is really a simple XML document editing protocol. Our protocol is here but was never approved as a XEP by the XMPP council. The date's wrong; that protocol was updated as recently as 2008.

  • Wi-fi connection on HP Deskjet 2540 and network at the same time?

    Hello
    Please can you tell me how to keep my connection to my wi-fi printer whilst connected to my Virgin Media Broadband? Every time I want to print I have to switch off the Virgin network connection and connect to the HP Deskjet Wi-fi, and then switch it back again to Virgin to browse or send emails.
    Thank you for your help

    Hey there @AC33 Welcome back
    I understand you are looking to install your printer on your network, so you can use the internet and printer at the same time. By the sounds of it, you may be connecting the printer currently, using the Wireless Direct feature, which will only allow you to connect to the printer or the network at a time. Basically, the printer is acting like a network.
    Here is a link for you to check out. It will help you install the printer on your network:
