Drop in connection with peripherals!

Dear BT Brain Trust...
I have a heating system that can be accessed from mobile broadband out side of the house, port forwarded through a BT HH3 and also a wifi printer and apple TV. This all connects and works fine, for a while. I look to strem something from the apple TV and it isnt seen on searching Airplay devices, if a go to apple tv it shows a good connection to the HH3. the same happens with the printer, it cant be found from other devices but the printer display would suggest it is connected.
I can reset the router and everything is fine for a bit.... The most annoying however is the heating controls, connection suddenly stops working remotely and i have to get a neighbour to go around to the house and reset the HH3 in order for me to control the heating... obviously this is not the ideal solution...
Any ideas?
Thanks Andy

Ok..... thanks.... I will try that! So no advice about fixing channels, static IP addresses, separating frequencies? I know this has been a problem with home hubs since the dawn of Home Hubbing but what is the actual problem, and any successful fixes with out buying a new router? I personally think the range of the wifi from a home hub is very descent!!

MacBook Pro dropping bluetooth connection with HP Officejet 100

I've recently started developing problems with my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.7.4) maintaining a bluetooth connection with my HP Officejet 100 Mobile Printer.
The problem I'm seeing is that when I send something to the printer, everything starts out okay, but then after about 10 seconds, the bluetooth icon in my status bar indicates that it is no longer connected. The printer pauses for a minute or so and then spits out the half-printed page.
Anybody else seeing this? Any suggestions on how to fix?

I have a similar issue, albeit a different bluetooth printer from yours.
According to a review on CNET's website, the dropping of bluetooth connections seems to have been introduced in the 10.7.4 update and did not exist in the 10.7.3 version of the Mac OS X Lion software.

DroidX dropping Bluetooth connections with 2010 Honda Accord

I hope soneone has an answer for this one.
My phone drops the bluetooth connection with the HandsFreeLink in my car (2010 Honda Accord w/Nav) after a period of time (20-30mins). The phone call is still active. Only the bluetooth connection is cutoff. The car will not recognize the phone until I either shutoff and restart the car or pull the battery on the phone and reboot it. This does not happen with my wife's motorola flip type phone.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you all for posting your questions and concerns!
I can imagine how frustrating it gets when experiencing the Bluetooth connection problems! Just want to let everyone know our Product and Bluetooth Team are aware of the issues with connectivity since software update, and are working diligently to provide a permanent fix as soon as possible.
We will keep you updated!
Thanks for your patience, and for choosing Verizon Wireless!

Hp 6535b drops usb connection with kvm.

I have a hp 6535b and have a kvm attached to it. It drops usb connection on a regular basis and it is very annoying. I am not sure what i shoud do about it so any help will be appreciated.

Hi!, Ranothil: If you have the next cable and "null modem" (http://commerce.hpcalc.org/serialcable.php), you can transfer, anydata, from HP50G, to PC and viceversa, across Connectivity Kit (Conn4x), without problem. Please, see this link, with instruction's, for transfer data with serial cable, null modem and connectivity kit ... http://sense.net/~egan/skb/ and/or ... http://www.hpmuseum.org/cgi-sys/cgiwrap/hpmuseum/archv017.cgi?read=125259 Note: Better, if you transfer data, from HP50G to, PC and viceversa, across the microUSB.

WRVS4400N Drops Internet Connectivity with PORT SCAN

I just installed a WRVS440N router and it appears that every time a PORT SCAN happens, the router just shuts down and drops Internet Connectivity for about a minute or two, then once the PORT SCAN is done everything seems back to nomal?
I have heard many complaints about this router and wonder does anyone else have this issue?
I also have very erratic Internet connections speeds and I turened off the IPS feature and that seems to help. I am running version 2.0.8 Firmware.
If anybody has any tips or tricks to improve this router would like to hear. I can only say I regret buying this thing.

I suggest you to play around with the wireless settings on the router, Like changing the wireless name , channel and the type of wireless security.
This link will guide you;http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=80&vw=1&articleid=3698
Also, you check the firmware of the router by going to the status tab on the interface.

Dropping wireless connection with Apple Wireless Keyboard

I've got a new bluetooth chip in my iMac from support at my location, a new wireless keyboard and I'm still having issues. Wireless connection dropped 6 times typing this one sentence. Aaargh. I've been busy with this ever since I bought the computer. On irregular intervals (absolutely no regularity whatsoever) the computer loses connection with my Apple Wireless Keyboard. So if I have a new iMac, with a new bluetooth chip and a new keyboard how come this issue is still an issue? It's driving me mad. And possibly the guys at the centre as well.

Hi mvoltage
Do you have any appliances with motors or other mobil telephone devices setup near the iMac?
Both motor flux fields and Cordless Phone Base Stations can and will interfere with the operation of the iMac's wifi and airport signals.

VCS drop a connection with same endpoint Polycom HDX after 2 hours

Hi ,
i ' ve a problem , with a VCS Control and some Endpoint Polycom HDX.
I use a TMS and 2 mediablade MCU registered on VCS.
I connect various endpoint with ip address (in the VCS there is a Membership rules for the internal private ip address) , but same endpoint after 2 hours drop a connection.
I examine the problem with a sniffer:
10.253.40.4 is the Endpoint
10.49.64.190 is the VCS Control
from the vcs i can see: (10.49.72.20 is the mediablade - codian MCU)
I DON'T KNOW what can drop the connection.
in my network i've another gatekeeper.
If i register the same endpoints at the other gatekeeper and i call this with the e164 number the connection works very well and there isn't any fault.
Only whit a VCS there is a problem.
The VCS and the other Gatekeeper are uder a pix cisco firewall, bau there a rules that permit all ip from the network.
The specialist have verify the firewall and there aren't any drop.
what can i do ?
i try to modify the timer on the H323 vcs parameters, so:
can you help me , please ?
Thanks in advance

but when i modify the timer (call time to live or time to live) i can reset the vcs o re-register the mcu ?
Thanks in advance

I'm stumped on this one. WRT110 drops Internet connectivity with Windows 7.

I've had my router for a good 4 years now. I have Time Warner RoadRunner for my ISP. Running Windows 7 on my laptop, and have several devices connected at different times via wireless.
I was having Internet dropouts multiple times per day. Powering down the router for about 10 seconds fixed it until the next one. I figured the router was dying, so I bought a new one. Had the exact same issues, so I returned the router and kept the WRT110. Next step was to swap out my cable modem. I got the newest one they had (which is a Cisco). This still did not fix the problem. So I put up with it. FYI - this is not a modem issue. Many times I have checked to make sure I have Internet connectivity via a direct connect to the modem, and it has always had a steady Internet connection, even when the router has dropped Internet.
Then one day my hard drive crashed on my laptop. I decided to throw Ubuntu on my new hard drive. I ran it for a month or more, and I noticed that the Internet dropouts almost completely went away. I didn't have to get up and reset the router every hour or two. Well after getting a bit tired of Ubuntu, I re-installed Windows 7, and now the dropouts are back, and more annoying than ever.
The only thing I can come up with is the wireless driver Windows is using is somehow affecting the router in the way it and the wireless adapter are talking. It seems to only drop Internet when I'm using the laptop. Even if I just have the laptop powered on, and I am trying to watch Netflix on my TV, or browse apps on my tablet, I will lose Internet.
Anybody have any suggestions? (I just lost Internet again while typing this, and I just reset it 15 minutes ago)

Apple TV Dropping WiFi Connection with Home Sharing

I am currently having trouble with my Apple TV and Home Sharing. My Apple TV will connect to my WiFI network (which is only 802.11g) and stream from either the iTunes store for movies, and from YouTube using that connection fine. My trouble starts when I try to connect to another computer with Home Sharing. When I try to connect to another computer (my MacBook Pro, for example, which is also on the same WiFi network) to stream content across the network, the Apple TV looses it's connection, and then the router kicks everything else on WiFi off the network. I am using WPA for WiFi security on the router. I turned off WPA, and everything streamed across the network fine, no drop outs on the Apple TV. I can stream from a desktop connected to the router via ethernet fine (with or without the WiFi security enabled). I think it is probably the router (it is just a little DLINK I picked up a little while back), but I wanted another opinion or some troubleshooting ideas before I do.

I am having this problem too, I also have a dlink router. Everything works fine until I try using homeshare, after a minute or so I lose all wifi router connections on everything connected via wifi, iPad,iPhone and aptv2. I have to wait for the router to reset/restart to use again. It's very odd, it even happens if I connect the atv2 via Ethernet so it's not a wifi glitch.
Any suggestions?

WRT54G dropping internet connectivity with Clearwire modem

I recently switched ISPs from Comcast to Clearwire. I'm linking two laptops with v. 6 of a WRT54G, which I used successfully for a couple years with my comcast service. The Clearwire service is working ok, but lately every day, sometimes twice a day, my internet speed slows to a crawl and finally stops. While this degradation of connectivity occurs, my status bar on my computer shows good wireless connection at 54 mbps and I have 5 lights on the clearwire modem, indicating best signal. I can unplug the power to the router, then after 30 seconds or so when it boots back up, I'm back to full speed on the internet. This tells me (I think) that I have an issue with the router rather than my internet connection. I'm running the router in secure mode. Is this thing just getting sick and tired or do you think there is something to be tweaked here? Thanks.

You need to Upgrade your router's firmware...
Download the Firmware...
Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device : -
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on a computer hard wired to the router...
In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1...Leave the username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful" After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
Now reset your router :
Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...It should work now without dropping the Internet Connection...

TC drops wifi connection with hidden SSID on restart/logout?

All in all I'm new to the Mac family as of January and have only one complaint...holds true to the Airport functionality in Leopard. I experienced the Airport/2Wire DSL gateway dropping wifi signal I found plenty of on the support forums.
I figured buying the TC would solve the problem yet it still is a problem if I hide the SSID? My XP PC connects fine whether hidden or broadcast, in fact I had an easier time connecting and using TC via my work PC then with my MBP? I see and connect via wifi no problems in XP parallels or my work PC, hard drive connects as well. Yet as soon as I hide the SSID after I get my MBP connected, when I logout or restart I can not find or even search for the network. I have to enable/broadcast again to get the MBP to connect. Once I hide it I'm still good until I restart or logout of any of the accounts?

Hello:
I just purchased a new Motorola DROID 2 Global, and am having difficulty connecting it to my home WiFi network. My router is a DLINK 655 router, which I have set to 802.11n only with WPA2 encryption and I do not broadcast the SSID. I have gone through the setup process on the DROID 2 by entering the SSID on the phone providing my password etc. The phone keeps attempting to connect to the WiFi network, but just cannot do so. I have a Lenovo laptop which has no problem connecting to the network at the same time, and I have connect it many times.
If I change the router setting to broadcast the SSID, the phone will connect. But as soon as I hide it again, the connection will drop. The saved network setting on the phone will show "Not in range" even though I am standing right next to the router, and the phone connected to it just a minute ago when the SSID was being broadcast.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a solution to this problem or is this a known limitation of the phone?
A soft reset may resolve your WiFi connectivity concerns. Please remove the battery from your phone while is ON. Re-insert battery after 10 seconds. Power phone ON and allow it to register applications.

E51 Drops Bluetooth connection with Car Radio afte...

Hi Guys,
Just wondering if anybody has seen this before. It seems like a few people are seeing this but I have yet to find a solution. My phone pairs perfectly and works as it should for about the first 30 mins, then for no reason, it drops the bluetooth connection and I either have to power my phone or radio on/off. This is very annoying as it has now dropped the call too and I am force to redial.
Sometimes it does not even last 30 mins, and might happen after only 10 mins or so.
Any ideas would be great.
Thanks.

Yes, I have a similar problem which is a real pain if the call is dropped mid-conversation. Have you installed the MS Exchange email client from Nokia because that may cause a disconnect during a poll update.
Other than that I can't suggest anything, except it would be good to get a solution to the problem!

HT1595 BT Home Hub1 drops broadband connection with Apple TV 3

Hi.
Just got Apple TV3 home and set up which was easy to start, but as soon as I try to homeshare my BT broadband connection drops and needs reset - using home hub 1. Is there a settings fix or is a new router the only option?
Thanks,
Col.

Hi.
Have checked my firmware which is up to date and have also disabled my firewall to check if it was creating problems but no change. BT channel change not helped yet but could take 12 hours to activate. Broadband works perfectly until I attempt to open any Apple TV application then it drops. Also I mistakenly quoted I have Home Hub 1 but I actually have HH2. Channel change might help but tbh I don't hold out much hope.
