E2500 - Returning due to possible bug, flaw or a lemon unit.

I bought this 4 days ago at a major retailer brand new. Most things have already been reviewed here, but I thought I would add my experience.
I am an advanced user, as such I should not have even used the setup CD which came with it (And a Cisco Chat agent told me this). I don't like that the password for your wireless security AND your router management has to be the same. I might give my kids the wireless password so they can stream netflix or whatever, but I don't want them having the Admin password.
I got it set up and working pretty well. I did flash the firmware with the latest official build from Linksys FW_E2500_1.0.03.004_US_20110928.bin and that seemed to go fine. Everything was going pretty well UNTIL I went to the http://192.168.1.1 Router administration management page and set the Local Management Access to HTTPS and unchecked the HTTP access and saved my settings.
From there on I was LOCKED OUT of my router's administration web setup. Yes, I used https://192.168.1.1 to get to it, but I got a certificate warning which was normal, I ignored it. Then I was told by my browser that the connection was reset. Tried IE9 and Chrome. No luck. I had just upgraded from a simple WRT120N and that had almost the same interface and it would always let me use HTTPS to securely connect to the router.
I tried this twice. I had to do a hard reset by pushing a pen into the hole underneath the router for 15 seconds and starting over. Luckily the second time I had backed up my router configuration, so it was easy to restore. But due to this problem I am returning the router. It is a basic function and Cisco could not help me at all and said no one else had reported this.
Is mine just a lemon? Has anyone else used HTTPS on this successfully? I think I'm going with one I saw on an auction site that is popular with a different refurb router with a 2 yr warranty for about the same price as this. I like the idea of a gigabit router anyways.

That would be nice, wouldnt it? I contact support using the live chat feature and was told that since its been more than 90 days since I purchased the device I could PAY for support in order for them to review this issue. Can't say that I am impressed that a company like this would expect its customers to pay additional for them to fix an obvious flaw in their firmware.
Here is a part of the chat:
from (17163) to All Participants:
I just checked the entitlement status of the device and according to the system your product is outside of its Complimentary Support Period which means that we have a few options for support.
from me to All Participants:
really, how long is the support period?
from (17163) to All Participants:
90 days.
from (17163) to All Participants:
We do have a few options that we provide to all of our customers. First is our online support website
where you can read some troubleshooting articles regarding the issue that you are experiencing today.
Or, we have our Premium Phone Support Options. The first is 29.99 which is a per incident plan which
means I can connect you to one of our 2nd Level Technical Support Representatives to help you with your
issue that you are having today.
from (17163) to All Participants:
The second is 39.99 and that allows you to call us for 6 months for any issues that
you are having with your device.
from (17163) to All Participants:
Also each of these offerings come with a 14-day grace period so you can call back at anytime if you are
still experiencing the issue or need additional configurations performed.
For this we accept Visa, Mastercard or AMEX.
If you are interested in finding out more I can have a technician give you a call right now while I am still
connected to you via chat.
from me to All Participants:
No, if I were going to spend money because your company has such a short support window, i would rather spend it on the product from a company that provides an adequate support window. I am kind of shocked that you only provide 90 days of support.
from me to All Participants:
I guess I will just have to deal with the fact that your firmware is faulty with only an insecure method to configure it or seek to replace it with another product that functions properly.
from (17163) to All Participants:
If you like ----, you can call our phone support to further check the router without the fear of disconnction. The number is 1-800-326-7114.
from (17163) to All Participants:
Alright?
from me to All Participants:
ok, but i dont see much of a point if I cant get any support without have to pay additional money for something that is a firmware issue. but thanks for the info
from (17163) to All Participants:
Alright.
from (17163) to All Participants:
For further information, please feel free to visit our website, http://homesupport.cisco.com for troubleshooting steps that can help resolve your problem.
I will have to consider whether to purchase another product from Cisco/Linksys the next time I need to pruchase a router for my home, or for anyone in my family when I help them out. They have done a good job of turning away an advocate of their products if they have no problem allowing their product to be insecure and won't even support it longer than 3 months! without thinking they can demand more money...

If Apple thinks that they can intentionally leave “key” features out of the iPhone just to make us think that the iPhone2 is a “significant update”, then Apple isn’t the company I thought it was. Make your phone the “best” it can possibly be for the time it comes out. Don’t leave out “standard” smartphone technology that will make people think twice about trashing their Treo or Blackberry. Adding true GPS or upgrading the internal memory is a different story, but things like the inability to copy and paste, the inability to record video, and the inability to use voice dialing should definitely not be issues with iPhone’s release, especially due to the fact that Apple had more than six months to test the thing. I really hope Apple fixes a lot of these “flaws” immediately or else iPhone won’t be as successful and as respected as it could have been.
Just trying to help. Please forward this to the appropriate iPhone Development department.
Thank You

Possible Bug In Apex 4.0.2

Hi Everyone.
I would like to report what I think is a bug in Apex 4.0.2.
If you go to my workspace on apex.oracle.com:
Workspace = EEG
Username = [email protected]
Password = galaxy (all lowercase)
Run the application: 37796 - Elie_Various_Goodies [no credentials are required]
This app was imported from my 4.0.1 workspace at my job. On the page I created two Date Picker items, P1_BEGIN_DATE and P1_END_DATE. I set them up so that whenever a user selects a begin date, a dynamic action "MANAGE_DATES" fires and automatically sets P1_END_DATE to this selected begin date value. Now when a user goes to select an end date, the displayed calendar starts at the previously selected begin date rather than the default of "Today".
All of this worked fine on my office (4.0.1) workspace. However, after exporting this app and then importing onto apex.oracle.com, none of this functionality would work. Even worse, whenever I try to select a begin date or even an end date, the selected dates never make it into the date picker fields. Displaying the "Session" window shows these fields as empty.
It was only after I copied the two date picker fields and also re-created my dynamic action (P1_BEGIN_DATE2, P1_END_DATE2, MANAGE_DATES) did my functionality return.
This behavior is quite strange. I can only think this is some sort of bug attributed to the export/import process when exporting a 4.0.1 app into a 4.0.2 workspace. I am not sure if this bizarre behavior happens with non-date picker items. Nor am I sure if this beavior would be repeated if I export/import from 4.0.2 into the another 4.0.2 environment.
Another strange thing I noticed. If I change my date picker items to be "date picker (classic)" type items, the dynamic action does not work at all. This is true in both 4.0.2 and 4.0.1. I'm not sure if this a bug or not. It could be that the classic date picker is just not "javascript" enabled so to speak. If that is true, then it would have been nice if the docs would have warned us about this.
Has anyone else seen this behavior?
Thank you.
Elie

Hi Joel.
First let me thank you for the warning about allowing "everyone" access to my workspace.
You're correct, of course. Anyone could destroy anything within my workspace. I guess I was too trusting especially as I have seen many posts on the Forum where others have given access to their workspace so that responders can offer help. I really should be more discreet about this. Again, thank you. Needless to say, I have changed my password.
With respect to the possible bug, the MANAGE_DATES dynamic action is intended to be a submit page because that is the only way I can see to get BOTH the P1_END_DATE date picker item as well as the end date textual field to be assigned the selected P1_BEGIN_DATE. I tried to use a dynamic action in which javascript sets the value of the end date textual field to the selected P1_BEGIN_DATE value. This works without the need to submit the page. Unfortunately, this does not cause the P1_END_DATE date picker item to default to this value. Instead, the default remains at today's date. This is why I finally resorted to a dynamic action that submits the page whenever a new value is selected (that is, a "change" event) from the P1_BEGIN_DATE date picker item.
All of this works in my office 4.0.1 environment. However, I was puzzled when this fails under 4.0.2 on the hosted web site at apex.oracle.com. This is why I posted a "possible" bug in 4.0.2.
I hope this all makes sense.
One more thing, as already mentioned in my original post, this "defaulting a date picker" functionality does NOT work at all for the "classic" date picker items in both 4.0.1 nor in 4.0.2. I realize one can implement this functionality (I' guessing) my using, say, a "onChange" javascript call to submit the page. It's just funny that the "classic" date picker items are not acted upon by the dynamic action MANAGE_DATES that submits the page.
Thank you.
Elie

Possible bug? formatted number 0 displays as 4,294,967,295

This is really two questions in one. First, I have a routine
that sometimes provides a result of 0, which is *sometimes*
displayed in an AdvancedDataGrid column as 4,294,967,295, which I'm
assuming is somehow a meaningful number (largest int?). Anyway, I
have an ADG with a column defined as:
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Remaining work"
labelFunction="rem_work_fmt" textAlign="right" />
The labelFunction called is shown below:
private function rem_work_fmt(item:Object,
column:AdvancedDataGridColumn):String
var num:String =
numberFormatter.format(item.get_remaining_work());
trace ("result: " + num);
return num;
The trace output prints: "result: 0" as expected, but the
number displayed in the grid is sometimes 0 and sometimes
4,294,967,295.
More weirdness, this only happens to the last column in the
ADG. I call the same format logic on a different column and have
never seen the wrong result. Also, the same underlying function
"get_remaining_work()" is called elsewhere on the same data and the
result is correctly displayed in a text field as 0.
Second question, I've run into some other possible bugs,
which I haven't reported because I found a work around. How does
one do that in the beta program?

lw1001,
Bugs can be filed in the public bug base at
http://bugs.adobe.com/flex/
You'll need to sign up before you can submit bugs.
Also, if you can attach the bug files to the bug report, it
makes it a lot easier for Adobe to investigate.
Let me know if you have any further questions/problems.

A possible *bug* in java jcombobox

Hi all,
I think i found a possible bug in java jcombobox .. i am sure some of you must have already experienced it..
supposedly you put a jcombobox in a jpanel
returned the panel from a method to a calling method..
and that method adds it to another panel that it had created to a frame..
and if this happens dynamicaly at runtime, as only after u click a button..
meaning : without adding the combobox or the immediate parent panelto the contentpane .. directly..
Then,
your combox's keylistener may not catch events fired.
.. this has happened to me many times.. and always i could only find a way out
.. by adding the combobox to panel that is loaded during startup itself and is
.. not returned through a method call.
Your opinions please ?
'Harish.

All components in a UI are created at run-time.
When you create your JFrame you call pack() to align and resize the UI. This validates all the components, and sets the default focus on what ever component should have the focus at start up.
When you create components and add them as children of another component you have to validate the child and parent. This can be done by calling JComponent.validate()
As for keylisteners not getting called, this might be fixed if you call grabFocus on the new combobox. I can't see a reason why any listener would stop working.
For me to really understand what your talking about. I'd need to see source code reproducing this problem.

Possible bug with iTunes 11 ?? (with Smart Playlists)

Hi folks
New to Apple Support, but after upgrading to iTunes 11 earlier today (on my Mac Mini) I've discovered a potential bug / difference in the way it operates compared to earlier versions. Can someone else try something similar and see if they get the same result - I think I read somewhere that v11 is not available on Windows yet, so I cant compare what happens there
I've imported all our CD's into iTunes, and we've set up several Smart Playlists (SP). Using the Rating setting for the songs, we can break them up into groups, eg
Rating 0 = not yet processed
Rating 1 = not interested in listening to again
Rating 2 = kids songs (for our children)
Rating 3 = christmas songs
Rating 4 = songs i like, but my wife probably wouldnt
Rating 5 = songs we both like - good for background music etc
Using Home Sharing to our iPad's rocks !!
Now, onto the bug.
Using the SP that has just songs with Rating 0, I could play any song, set the Rating to whatever, and naturally once set, that disappears from the SP
In all earlier versions of iTunes, playback would continue with the next song, so I could set that Rating, etc etc. Worked really well to churn through a chunk of songs in say 15 minute blocks
With iTunes v11, playback stops as soon as I set the Rating.
How can you help ?????????? Set up a smart playlist with whatever criteria you like - make sure you have a number of songs returned and ensure Live Updating is set, have a song playing, and make that song no longer valid for that SP. Anyone doing this in earlier versions of iTunes should have the next song begin, and if this is a bug, then those using iTunes 11 will have playback stop
Sorry for the long post, but in order to determine a potential bug, you need to describe the situation and how to test it.
Thanks for reading
PS I'm on a 2010 Mac Mini with OSX v10.7.x (whatever the current release of that is) and just upgraded to iTunes 11

Soo, maybe it isnt possible bug, but the way Apple have changed iTunes when going to v11. Stooopid
Anyway, found this link about downgrading to an earlier version. I've just completed it and found one or two "errors" in the method, which I'll detail below
http://www.emacconsulting.com/apple/itunes/downgrade-itunes-11-to-itunes-10-7/
In the latter part of the instructions
11) Open your iTunes Music Folder.
If you never moved your iTunes folder it’s located here:
Your HD/Your User/Music/iTunes
Or go to the Finder type: Command + Shift + G
Paste this into the the dialog: ~/Music/iTunes
If you moved it to another hard drive, you will know where to locate your iTunes folder.
12) Open the “Previous iTunes Libraries” folder.
13) Find the most recent copy of the “iTunes Library 2012-xx-xx.itl” file.
Normally it will the last file at the bottom of the list.
14) Drag a copy of the file into the iTunes folder.
15) Delete the “iTunes Library” file.
16) Change the name of the “iTunes Library 2012-xx-xx.itl” to ”iTunes Library” with no .itl extension.
In #11, I simply went to "My HD"/Users/"My User"/Music/iTunes
Copied the latest .itl and moved it up a directory level
The old file in #15 is called "iTunes Library.itl" - which I renamed, and renamed the copied version back to "iTunes Library.itl" = though I do have extensions showing, some people may not and hence wont see the .itl
Anyway all is fixed in my world, and when I launched v10.7, it asked me if I wanted to upgrade to v11 - I said No and not to prompt me again. Playcount issue is resulved, as is changing SmartList criteria with playback continuing
Apple - please correct these bugs before releasing any new versions of iTunes... you've made a very large number of people unhappy

Possible bug found in Mac Os X Tiger 10.4.11 in conjuction with iPod Touch

Dears,
I think I've found a possible bug in Mac Os X version 10.4.11 in conjunction with iPod Touch.
When the iPod is connected during boot, my Bluetooth hardware fails to be detected. When I restart the portable without the iPod connected, my Bluetooth hardware is recognised & activated again. It is reproduceable.
1. Attach iPod Touch before starting the MacBook Pro
2. Boot the Macbook
3. Bluetooth hardware should be rendered inoperative
Restore functionality:
1. Detach the iPod Touch
2. Reboot the portable
3. Bluetooth hardware is restarted / recognised.

Possible Bug with Drag-and-Drop Being Published via HTML5 - Getting "Undefined" Error When Dragging Object

Hello,
I came up with a way to use drag-and-drop interactions that will take advantage of file input so that I may create a drag-and-drop interaction that uses one draggable object over and over allowing multiple scoring/tracking possibilities. Example use...is having the draggable object be dynamic in that it randomly changes its text so that a learner can drag a term it's possible classification.........thus allowing the possibility of having many terms easily loaded without having to redo a drag-and-drop interaction for each needed terms/classifications updates/changes.
My Issue: When using a variable to represent the text for a draggable Smart Shape object, I'm getting the error message "undefined" when, clicking/pressing on the object, as well as during the drag of the object. This issue occurs when publishing the project in an HTML5 format. Flash interestingly enough seems to work perfect...but we are not interested in publishing via Flash any longer.
To better help you explore this error message, I've set up a test project so that you can see when and how the "undefined" message shows up during a drag-and-drop interaction. I've also included the Captivate 8 project file used to make the exploration project I'm sharing in this post.
Link to Captivate project I created for you all to explore "undefined" error message": http://iti.cscc.edu/drag_and_drop_bug/
Link to this Captivate 8 Project file: http://iti.cscc.edu/drag_and_drop_bug.cptx
It's pretty interesting how things react in this demo, please try the following actions to see some interesting happenings:
Drag the Yellow (or variable drag box) to the drag target.
Drag Black Hello square to Drag target and click undo or reset - watch the undefined message come up on the Yellow (or variable drag box).
Drag the Yellow (or variable drag box) to the drag target and then use the undo or reset.
Move both draggable boxes to the drag target and use the undo and reset buttons...
Anyhow, I know you all are sharp and will run the demo through its paces.
I'd really be very honored if anyone help me figure out how I could (when publishing out to HTML5) no longer have the "undefined" error message show up when using drag-and-drop with a variable for shape text. This technique has been well received at the college I work at...and I have many future project requests for using such an idea on a variety of similar interactions. I'd love see a solution or see if this might be a bug Adobe may be able to fix!
I tried to find a solution to the issue documented here for quite some time, but I was not able to find anyone with this problem much less attempting the idea I'm sharing in the help request - save the darn "undefined" message that comes up!
Many thanks in advance for any help and/or direction that you all may be able to provide,
Paul

Hello,
I just wanted to supply a minor update related to my drag-and-drop question/issue stated above:
I did another test using Captivate 7, and found that the undefined error (publishing as HTML5) does not appear and the variable data remains visible - except the variable data turns very small and does not honor any font size related settings.
I did go ahead and submit this to Adobe as a possible bug today.
Thanks again for any help related to this issue. If the issued documented above is solved, it will allow many amazing things to be done using Captivate's drag-and-drop for both regular type projects as well as interaction development for iBooks!
Matter of fact if this issue gets fixed, I'll publish a Blog entry (or video) on way's I've used Captivate's drag-and-drop to create dynamic learning activities for Higher Ed. and for use in iBooks.

Possible bug: Saving array with extended and double precision to spreadsheet

If one concatenates a double precision array and an extended precision array with the "build array" vi and then saves using "Write to Spreadsheet File" vi any digits to the right of the decimal place are set to zero in the saved file. This happens regardless of the format signifier input (e.g. %.10f) to the "Write to Spreadsheet File" vi.
I am on Vista Ultimate 32 bit and labview 9.0
This is a possible bug that is easily circumvented by converting to one type before combining arrar to a spreadsheet. Nonetheless, it is a bug and it cost me some time.
Solved!

Spreadsheet save bug.vi ‏9 KB

Hi JL,
no, it's not a bug - it's a feature
Well, if you would look more closely you would recognize the "Save to Spreadsheet" as polymorphic VI. As this polymorphic VI doesn't support EXT numbers internally (it only supports DBL, I64 and String) LabVIEW chooses the instance with most accuracy: I64 (I64 has 64 bits precision, DBL only 53...). So your options are:
- set the instance to use as DBL (by right-click and "Select type...")
- make a copy of this VI, save it with a different name and make it support EXT numbers (don't rework the polymorphic VI as you would break compatibility with other LV installations or future revisions)
And yes, those coercion dots always signal some conversions - you should atleast check what's going on there...

Can someone confirm a possible bug with Universal Access?

Can someone confirm a possible bug with Universal Access?
I have a Mac Pro 3,1, 10.7.1 but if you could confirm or not this possible bug with any model.
In Energy Saver preference pane:
Set Mac to never sleep.
Set Display Sleep to ~2 minutes.
In Desktop & Screen Saver:
Set screen saver to start at ~1 minutes.
In Universal Access:
Check Enable access for assistive devices.
Check radio button Zoom to On.
Zoom in window not checked.
Confirm that Zoom works by pressing:
⌥⌘= (option, command, =).
Set screen back to normal by pressing ⌥⌘-.
Let screen sleep after screen saver starts.
Wake screen and see if ⌥⌘= still works.
Thanks … Ken

Other than the time intervals (smallest Screen Saver kick-in is 3 minutes), it works fine for me - at least I can still zoom in/out after waking the display.
Tested on two different MacBook Pro models in 10.7.1

Unable to move scrollbar due to forms bug

We use Headstart for Designer 6.i.
I have spreadtable in the form with verticall an horizontall scrollbars.
In PRE-FORM trigger I used procedure qms$config.set_spreadtables_resizable('TRUE').
In the running form when the window is resized the error message is displayed:
'Unable to move scrollbar due to forms bug' and verticall scrollbar is lost.
But in Headstart demo this utility works OK. I can't find solution for this problem in oracle Helpdesk.
Thanks for reply.

Martina,
There is a bug in forms that won't allow you to change the 'x-pos' of a scrollbar to a value bigger than the width defined for the canvas at design time. So, if you stretch the canvas and set the 'x-pos' to a bigger value, you get a runtime error from designer. If you look in the Headstart User Guide under re-sizable spreadtables, you will see that we recommend that you put the vertical scrollbar on the left side of the screen instead of on the right side when using a resizable spread-table. That's what we did in the demo application.
Regards,
Lauri

What are the changes / enhancements / or possible bugs in LR 5 Auto Tone

Can anyone explain what, if any, changes, enhancements, or possible bugs were introduced in the functionality of Auto Tone since LR ver. 5.0. The reason I ask is that I get different results for the Exposure and Contrast adjustments when applying Auto Tone (using ver. 5.3) from the results (using ver.5.0) shown in the book "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 CIB" in the "Using Quick Develop in the Library module" section, step 4 on page 37. (This difference in results between LR versions was confirmed by the authors of LR5CIB.)

I'm not sure about any new bugs but the radical exposure mis-calculations have been improved. I had photos that were over exposed to 5 (and even 10, believe it or not) that were exposed to a more appropriate 2 or so following the improvements (in Lr5.2 if memory serves). It's also less likely to radically underexpose.
Enjoy, (in my opinion, it's much better)
I think there may have even been further improvement in Lr5.3 but I can't swear to it - seems to preserve a little more contrast than in 5.2 - could be my imagination..
