Devices Missing from Home Hub 2 List

 I have seen many entries on various forums about people connecting device and not seeing them on the network list.
I had this problem and went through all the suggestions and finally did a reset to factory defaults. This cured the problem temporarily but it returned the following day.
After lots of analysis it seems that the HH2 can only display 10 devices at any one time, so when I added the 11th device to my network – it does not seem to matter weather its wireless or not, it is not in the list – delete an existing entry and refresh and the new device appears.
Is this normal behaviour or is my HH2 faulty?

From what you are saying this is normal for these things.
Its much the same on the home hub 1. Sometimes devices do not show as connected, even though they exist in the main device list. I get the impression that the web display only updates if the device has been active for a while.
There is nothing in the firmware to trigger anything, when a device status changes.
If I log into the telnet interface on the HH1, and use the command "hostmgr list", the device is shown on the list.
Telnet is not available on the HH2.
I would not rely too much on the device list. If you really want to see if a device is present, then simply "ping" it.
I actually use static addresses on my network, as it makes it easier to detect if a device is active.

  • Calendar missing from iCal's list.

    Noticed today that our Work calendar is missing from iCal's list. Checked partner's iMac, iPad, 2 iPhones, MobileMe. Missing from all of them. Turned off syncing with MobileMe on both iMacs & all other devices. Quit iCal/Calendar on everything.
    In Finder window selected ~/Library. Entered Time Machine. Selected ~/Library/Calendars. Selected a timeline a few days back. Clicked Restore. Said 'Keep both', & removed original from Library folder.
    Opened iCal. When it first loaded the calendars, Work was there, but it quickly disappeared and what's more, events added in other calendars since the timeline date chosen were there too. So there's something else (to do with Sync Services?) I need to turn off or delete....?
    I'll be very grateful for enlightenment here.
    OS is 10.6.8

    These are evidently MobileMe calendars, to which the Apple Tech Note linked to above does not apply; and turning off syncing in System Preferences>MobileMe>Sync has no effect on iCal syncing which no longer uses that method.
    This is why your calendar is disappearing: MobileMe sees it as deleted, so every time you add it back in from Time Machine (whereupon it has an earlier modification date than the deletion) MobileMe brings it up to date by deleting it, and also updates the other calendars.
    There is a method for dealing with this issue, though it's a trifle complicated and you need to work through the steps carefully and exactly. The process is detailed here:

  • Adobe reader plugin missing from firefox plugins list on redhat 6.1

    Hello,
    I'm having a problem with putting adobe reader 9 plugin installed on firefox 3.6.17 on redhat 6.1 (64bit)
    (Not recreatable on redhat 5.4 with same versions of reader and firefox)
    Even though nppdf.so appears in the directory /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins directory with 755 permissions,
    when I start firefox, it is missing from the plugins list.
    How can I ensure it is properly installed or what steps can I take to debug the problem deeper?
    Thanks!!

    Thank you for your post miditt1.

  • Chirping noise from Home Hub 3!

    Sorry about the rather vague subject title, but since a reboot early this morning (following a local BT exchange problem yesterday) my new Home Hub 3 keep making small 'chirruping' noises!
    A bit like the sound Nokia mobile phones make when their batteries are getting low, but quieter than that... I probably only hear it because it is about a metre or so away from me!
    I have certainly never heard it before, and wondered anything to be concerned about, or is it some sort of resynchronisation procedure perhaps?
    Has anyone else noticed anything similar?

    Hi,
    Sorry for not having replied on here before, 
    Had a chuckle at some of the comments, but things seem to have quietened down a bit now, so perhaps the baby birds have finally flown the nest!
    My Home Hub seems to be working well at present anyway, so all I want now is for BT to lay about 3 miles of fibre optic cable from our nearest exchange to the cabinet immediately outside my house, and I shall be a very happy bunny!
    Hi Montala,
    Glad you took it in good heart, but you can see we couldn't miss the oportunity.
    As regards the fibre cable, You never know

  • "events" is missing from iPhoto source list / left-hand menu

    The "events" menu option is suddenly missing from the left-hand side menu of my iPhoto library.  See screenshot:
    Photos, Faces, Places, but no Events!  It used to be there and now it's not, not sure what happened.  When I open a different iPhoto library it is there, so it seems like a problem with my iPhoto library?  I tried rebuilding the iPhoto database and that didn't fix it.  The event data still seems to be there, when I browse the photos view pictures are still grouped by events.  Anyone have any suggestions?  I'm using iPhoto v 9.6 on Yosemite.  Thanks in advance for your help!

    Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

  • Time and Date - Clock Widget missing from home scr...

    What is the solution for missing clock widget from home screen after Anna update from Nokia Care !!!
    Reinstalled from Nokia Suite, still clock missing - any solution.

    Depress your home screen and wait for the 'Edit' menu to appear, tap an empty widget box (Plus sign) to open your widget catalogue, scroll down to the bottom of the catalogue and select a widget called Time and Profile, this should do it...... Unless if it's missing from the catalogue itself.

    These two roles are for accessing BPC, for administration , you need to assign admin task profile to user.

  • Swap from Home Hub 3 to 4

    Help. I currently have a home hub 3 which has a cable in the back into ADSL. It is wireless.
    I have just got a new Home Hub 4. This has 2 leads - red one for Broadband WAN and yellow one for Ethernet.
    Which do I plug in, the red Broadband or the yellow Ethernet?

    See link for setting up Homehub 4 broadband guide.
    http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/44413/c/1243
    Remember you will need to connect all your wireless devices to the new Homehub. You need to scan for the Homehub's SSid (name) wich will be something like BTHomehub4-xxxx. and once you have clicked on it you need to enter the wireless passkey that is found on the Homehub label. It i not the Admin passord.

    I have had a crackling noise and burning smell come from my Home Hub 5, as a pre-caution I've turned it off.  But depsite repeated attempts to get a replacement from BT no-one on the phone or via the live chat system seems to understand!
    Any chance on getting help to get a replacement please?

    You will need to phone them back and tell them what the problem is. This time tell them that flames have come out of it.
    Obviously do not plug it back in.

  • PC keeps disconnecting from home hub.

    Got a very annoying problem, for some reason my computer keeps disconnecting from my home hub. Its got much worse recently and I have no clue what is doing it. Sometimes it can stay disconnected for a couple of hours and when you finally get the connection back it says it cant connect to the Internet. Also my network adaptor cant find my hub but it will find my neighbours even though the hub is just down the stairs from my PC. Signal it good-excellent. There are 2 other computers using the same hub but the are totally unaffected by this.
    Would really appreciate some help.

    from your comments I assume you are using wifi 
    you can try downloading inssider3 (istumbler if MAC) and then run it. This will show the broadcasting networks round about you and their channels including your own. If you then enter your router and change your wireless channel to a free or less congested channel.

  • Creating New Smart Playlist by Album name - Missing From Drop Down List

    I hope i'm not the only person with this issue but since upgrading to Windows Vista i have noticed a very annoying little bug with iTunes.
    When trying to create a Smart Playlist there is no longer the option from the dropdown list to create a smartplaylist using the perameter 'Album'.
    Any lists created when my PC was using XP still have the correct parameters in place but you cannot create any ne ones.
    I have tried creating a new library without success. If i revert back to XP there is no problem.
    Are Apple aware of this issue? If not, how do i contact them to report this bug?

    Is there any way on the homehub 3 to block users on the wifi without it giving them a notification?
    When you use the parental lock down between certain times when the user opens a web page it says they've been locked down by the hub but I don't want them to get this notification just to be completly disconnected?
