Desktops get "Server Not Found" errors with WRT160N

I'm sharing my WRT160N with 2 laptops and 3 desktops. My laptops connect to the internet ok... drops now and then tho... but my desktops frequently get a "Server Not Found" error. After repeated "try again" clicks, it eventually connects again. Any ideas??

Try this ;
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
Under the Setup Tab...reduce the MTU value to 1300 and save settings.
Also reduce the card speed of the dekstop... (assuming it is window XP)..Click on the Start button >>> Control Panel >> Network Connections >> Right click on the ""Local Area Connection"" icon and select properties-Here click on the "Configure" button- Click on the "Advanced" tab- In the "Property" box highlight Link speed and duplex/Connection type/Network or Media type- And in the "Value" box select 10 Mbps half duplex/ 10 base T/10 base half mode and click on OK..  Now restart the computer.

  • In Firefox, I keep getting "Server not found" error - CONSTANTLY!

    Two days ago I started getting the "server not found" error, off and on, daily. It is happening on both my desktop iMac 10.7, and my Windows 7 laptop. I keep having to hit the "Try Again" butting, and sometimes, several times, before a web site will finally launch. The only two extensions I have on both, are the Adblock Plus and the Last Tab Close Button, both of which, have been installed on said computers for months and months and months.
    I went in and changed a setting to the "auto detect proxy setting", hoping that would work, and it did not.
    I have Firefox version 21 on both computers, and it seems the problem started shortly after this latest Firefox update, and at the SAME TIME on both computers.
    I do not have virus protection on my iMac, nor on my Windows 7 laptop, at the moment, but I have run online software to check for anything, and no issues, so I believe, it is not that which is the issue.
    The firewalls on both computers are working fine and no issues there either, I have not changed any firewall settings, on either computer. It couldn't be the firewall, in my opinion, because this annoying error message started happening on BOTH of my computers, at the same time; I work on my iMac in the morning, then switch to my laptop in the afternoon, and same issue continues on both, and started at the same time, on both.
    Is there something broken in Firefox from this last update of the browser?
    Does anyone have any suggestions as to why both computers are having this issue, at the same time?
    I have not tried using I.E. yet on my laptop, I rarely have ever needed to use that browser, and I hate it, so I don't use it.
    Any help or suggestions, would be appreciated.

    I followed those steps, but clearly some steps are missing. How do you "enable each extension one at a time"? The only choices I see in Safe Mode are "disable" and "remove."
    And why is it that every other update to Firefox breaks Firefox? I've had to install add-ons just to be able to use it in Windows 8 with a touchpad.
    Now that I think of it, it doesn't even matter any more. After years of Firefox loyalty (even after Firefox users have dropped to 28%), I'm off to download Google Chrome (up to 52%). I'll miss Firefox, but not the on-again, off-again performance.

  • Getting "server not found" errors randomly. If I reload the page comes up fine. Why?

    I'm on a Mac running 10.6.5 and using Firefox 3.6.13. All of the sudden pages I visit all the time are coming up with "server not found" errors, but when I refresh the page comes up fine. Sometimes the page loads, but in html code and all jumbled.
    How do I fix this? Very annoying. I've been using Firefox for years and it's never done this. Nothing's changed with my connection or settings.

    You detailed the situation very well dezi.
    Amazing that so many people have this problem yet NONE of these so called "AWESOME" developers deem it important enough to address the issue.
    I still have the exact same lame problem as you with 3.6.whatever it is now.
    There are quite a few of these random"Server not found" threads scattered around here,all with a mounting number of "people have this problem"
    On my old MacBook Pro, which runs 3.5.16, I have no such issue.
    After 6 weeks of exhaustive research the only thing I have found is a fix aimed at PC users in which you alter the about:config settings (not that it would work for us or that if it is even possible) that affect something called DNS fetching. I am not a computer person so all the jargon about do this-do that goes over my head. However, to get this solved I will learn what it takes.
    I hope we get some real answers soon
    (and none of that "empty your cache and cookies" garbage either)

  • Random "Server Not Found" errors.

    Since I updated to the most recent version of Firefox I'm randomly getting "Server Not Found" errors when I try to navigate to sites via searches, direct links, and typing in the URL. Anyone know what's going on?

    Adding som info whilst bumping the thread:
    the 400 Error page renders with:
    400 Bad Request, The HTTP client sent a request that this server could not understand.
    the 404:
    404 Not found, The requested URL /apex/f was not found on this server.

  • Server not found error message

    This is the second time I've "posted" this problem. Maybe the first time didn't take.
    I get SERVER NOT FOUND error message.

    What main page? I take it you did not write your message on the bad
    Firefox. There are several things that could be the problem.
    Some problems occurs when your Internet security program was set
    to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your
    updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow
    Firefox to connect to the Internet again;
    * Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version)
    * Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs, then add it back. For detailed instructions, see

  • Intermittent "Server not Found" errors

    For the past week, I've been getting intermittent "Server not Found" errors. It'll happen when going to a site. I re-read the site and it might open to it. Go to another site, it works fine. Go there a minute later and "Server not Found." Just started last week, and I've found no real answer online. I've found a lot of people discussing this, but no real, solid solutions.
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://

    One of your add-ons might be the culprit too. Try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] with all add-ons disabled. If that solves the problem, see [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and possibly [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

  • Installer - all day I get Server not responding Error code 207

    Trying to install CC Desktop - all day I get Server not responding Error code 207. Is this an internet performance issue or a real issue with the server?

    Hi,
    Thanks for the suggestion Romit. I believe the reported error code was installer app code rather than Windows error code.
    I have now had my broadband installed so have retried this install again, rather than on original public wifi. I'm pleased to say that it has all installed very well. I'm therefore pretty sure that it was an internet performance issue.
    Hope this helps anyone in the future.

  • Get file not found error when I try to sync

    I get file not found error when I try to sync Iphone.

    SteveDVD,
    The use of the .WMV was because that was part of the Library .EM template. I would not anticipate problems with other formats, so long as they are supported and the same for all of your Menus in the Project.
    If you have done several Motion Menu Renderings, you might want to clear Encore's Media Cache, just in case it is still referencing previous Render files.
    And yes, the re-Importation should yield the same result as Linking/re-Linking.
    Unfortunately, I do not have CS4, so I can't test this for you. There do seem to be a few real Bugs in the various CS4 programs, and maybe this is one?
    That "File Not Found" rings a bell in my feeble brain. Seems that there was a post on that, but I do not remember it being related to Motion Menus. Maybe search will yield something of use.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • I can't fix the "Server Not Found" error

    Ok, when I started up Firefox I was greated with a "Server not found" error, so I thougt to myself, " Ok, I'll just follow the instructions shown". Didn't help, still didn't work. So I dcided to use Internet Explorer until the issue fixed itself, didn't work. So I tried the 64 bit version, that worked. So basically what I'm trying to ask is: is there a 64 bit version to Firefox, or is another solution what i need?

    Close all of your anti-virus software and restart your FF.

  • Frequently get 'Server not found', have tried all articles solution, what now?

    Frequently get 'server not found' when accessing web sites, no particular websites just randomly all sites, clicking 'try again' always resolves. I am thouroughly sick and tired of this error and no working soloutions! Have tried 'about:config' settings; pipelining, script_run_time, ipv6. Have tried reinstall of Firefox and update of firefox. Have allowed firefox in my firewall which is 'Comodo' and have deleted entry and re-allowed it again. Have tried firefox proxy settings on all choices of settings. These things do not fix the problem. I cannot find anymore information or solutions to try, I have searched everywhere and everything and tried all the things Ive found as mentioned above. What is the problem? Can it be resolved? How can it be fixed?

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Trying to track a package on FedEx website and get "Framework Not Found" error message

    Either by clicking on the email from FedEx and launching Firefox or by opening the FedEx website and entering the tracking number, I get "Framework not found" error and the search stops. It worked with previous Firefox versions but not with the new 4.0.1 version. Any suggestions?

    I tried it with firefox and chrome and have the problem in both browsers, so it is not browser specific.

  • Why do certain of my Firefox windows start getting "Server not found"?

    Several times a day, one or more of my many Firefox windows gets into a state where it gets "Server not found" whenever I try to browse to a new URL. Internet Explorer is not affected.
    I usually run Firefox with ~4 windows and more than a hundred tabs. The problem sometimes affects only one of those windows. Sometimes I can solve it by closing and then reopening the window. Sometimes I can solve it by closing and then reopening Firefox. Sometimes I can solve it by rebooting.
    It's hard to say when exactly this started. The computer is only two weeks old.
    I have experimented with the solutions discussed here (played with my firewall, verified that I am not using a proxy server, network.dns.disableIPv6, network.dns.disablePrefetch): http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox%20cannot%20load%20websites%20but%20other%20programs%20can

  • 'Server not found' error

    I'm currnently having issues with my internet connection. I keep getting 'server not found' when loading web pages. But when I open my network preferences, it says I'm connected.
    I've tried using other browsers but they won't work either. To confuse matters further every other wireless device in the house works fine.
    Can anyone help me?

    I've seen some on here report connectivity problems when they are using WEP WFi encryption - if yours is WEP you could try changing it to WPA as it sometimes seems to resolve the problem.
    You'll need to go into your router's WiFi settings to change it. To get to the configuration page for your router you'll probably need to input http://192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 into your browser - if one of these doesn't work you'll need to find the instructions for your particular router.
    If the above doesn't help you could try this:
    System Preferences>Network, select the troublesome connection on the left and click on the 'minus' button to delete it. Then click on the 'plus' button and from the pop up window select 'WiFi' (assuming that's what you want) and try to set the connection up again, you'll need your WiFi password.
    Good luck.

  • Random Server not found error in firefox

    for the past few days i have been having the "Server not found" error in firefox whilst browsing it happens at random and fixes when i restart the browser or reconnect my internet connection

    mersne wrote:im not sure since as i said closing and reopening firefox fixes it so i cant trust any other browser and i cant simply switch since i dont k now if its affecting another browser or not
    you can't trust any other browser?
    Try chrome at the same time. See if it works, when firefox doesn't.
