EA6500 HELP WORST ROUTER EVER!

Okay first off this is the worst $200 for what I thought was suppose to be a superior router.
okay this is whats up.  Since I first got the router last year it's been stuck on version 1.1.28.146856 and can never update it.  when it says the router will reboot it shows there's no internet connection for the longest time and I have to unplug it to reset it and 50/50 chance it says it's updated then later when I come back it's still not updated and yes I unzipped the file cause auto update doesn't do anything.
Plus on top of that I have to reset my router every 24/hrs and sometimes less with whats suppose to hold multiple devices. (which maybe only 4 are connected)
I went from a little netgear 150 to my first linksys cisco and unless this can be fixed this is the worst router ever.
I've given this thing long enough time and I've researched how to fix the problem and all forums are saying either return it and try again or it's junk chunk it in the fire it's worthless.

every so often since I get tired of having to unplug the power and back in so I can get internet connection.  Forgot to add I also have the RE1000 which I believe does nothing.  Also the front where it lites up cisco is always flashing on and off as well.  I've also maybe factory reset it twice in the year I've had it but it doesn't act any different even if I do.

  • EA6300, Worst Router Ever

    So, I try to log into this brand new EA6300 router, using the default password on the back, and the default IP address of 192.168.1.1, which I find out by connecting a client computer to it with DHCP and doing "ipconfig" like any networking professional would.
    I get a login screen at 192.168.1.1, but the default password does not work.  I try again and again.  I try a different webbrowser.  Still no luck.
    So I try to do a reset the device to factory defaults, by holding the reset button in for 20 seconds when I power it on.
    Now when I try to pull up the Router's webpage, at 192.168.1.1, it redirects me to:
    http://linksyssmartwifi.com:52000/ui/dynamic/setup/welcome.html?target=192.168.1.1%2F
    Now I don't know what this BULL**bleep** is, but this redirect is now in my DNS cache, I can't get it out, and I can't pull up the routers home page at all, and it is really pissing me off.  No browser works.
    So I try to connect it to a cable modem, and the client to an ethernet port, and maybe if its connected to the internet it will resolve this horse**bleep** and give me some kind of access page.
    Nope, no access page, no internet, nothing.  Cablemodem works great with a dlink router I already have configured.
    This router is so smart it is stupid as F############.
    How the hell do I get into this box to set it up.
    From now on, throw out the manuals and setup CDs and all that bullcrap you people bundle with the router, and on the front of it in big large letters, write the default IP, the default password, and the reset procedure to set it to the factory defaults.  That's all we care about.  None of this horse**bleep**.  Its so elementary people....  

    The setup CD that came with the router contains only the documentation for the router. See it here: http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=38cde2cfa77a45aaa96187c5ae05fa45_Setting_up_the_Li....
    Setting up the Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Routers, EA6200, EA6300, EA6400 and EA6700 is made easy using the Smart Setup.  The Smart Setup Wizard is embedded in the firmware and is available even if the router does not have an Internet connection yet and the router is on factory settings.
    Smart Setup benefits:
    • It allows you to configure the routers through a web browser on your computer, mobile or tablet without the need of any Setup CD or downloaded software.
    • You also have the option to bypass the wizard and directly access the router’s interface instead.
    NOTE:  The CD included in the packaging does not contain any setup software.  It only contains your router’s documentation.
    And this router like the other newer EA router models (EA6700, EA6400) does not have a Classic firmware. I posted a reply on the other thread (http://community.linksys.com/t5/Wireless-Routers/EA6400-unable-to-setup/m-p/662482/highlight/false#M...). I am pretty sure you can get this router setup.

  • Blackberry Pearl- Why it's the worst phone ever made

    Here's why I think the Blackberry Pearl is the worst phone ever made.
    1. I can't get photo's off of it. My G1 takes a few seconds. I've worked with this Pear for hours upon hours cannot get my photo's off of it. The Desktop manager really bites too no help there. I really dislike this phone. The software just as bad. I guess they were on the move when Desktop manager was getting written.
    2. The phone on occasions would lock on letters instead of numbers. There wasn't an intuitive way to get it unlocked. I found it more intuitive to get a my return from the IRS than it was to get the phone back to dialing numbers.
    I'm having my kids dress up as a Blackberry Pearl for Halloween. I'm going to make a Halloween Movie Freddy Kruger attacks people with Blackberry Pearl the topper scene features unsuspecting Pearl user getting tied up and has them attempt to copy their photos off to a PC and the video gets put on Youtube for Christmas. 
    Very unsatisfied with your product.
    Don Quixote 

    I want to join the fun here and list all the different reasons why I'm very unsatisfied with this phone.
    The actual phone part of this phone is pretty slow.  It accepts a phone number almost 3 times slower than I can type it in.  Even typing a name on their handy search bar takes forever to get a result.  If I type to fast, it just ignores a couple of my numbers so I have to delete and retype, at the same super slow pace.  I'm guessing that it searches all sorts of contact and history lists to give me cool suggestions, and that's what makes it so slow.  Either way, it irritates me to no end that the basic reason I have this thing is slow as dirt.
    All 3rd Party and Blackberry apps require the Blackberry data service.  Even though there's WIFI on this phone, you simply can't connect to anything except the Browser (and even the Browser requires some setting changes to bypass the upsell screen).  This phone CAN do 3rd party services and other applications without the Blackberry data service, but they just don't allow you to.
    Sometimes my phone just turns off.  I don't normally mind the 3 minute boot up process, but when I'm in the middle of something and my phone turns off for no reason, it just compounds my frustration.
    The keyboard freezes up all the time.  After a good 1-5 minute "please wait clock", I finally get a message saying there was an error and my input application had to be reset.  Sometimes it doesn't quite reset all the way and I have to pull the battery and again wait for the long boot up process.
    Its a little unreliable.  Besides the phone turning off at random and the keyboard freezing, I still have problems other problems.  My bluetooth turns off and sometimes doesn't come back.  Once I had to get a new phone sent to me in order to correct that problem.  Pressing buttons doesn't always get a response, especially the green "call" button.  If the phone is bogged down, it just ignored commands, which is pretty frustrating especially if you press a button and accidently double enter a command that is both the "on" and "off" options.  Also, sometimes the screen fades out (like its suppose to) but doesn't come back when you press keys.  Or the external notifications just don't turn on.  It somestimes just doesn't read my memory card.  The zoom feature on my camera also got stuck.
    Other small gripes involve having no caps lock, the SureType never learning from my typing ("Hey" always goes out as "Get"), its overall slowness, the looseness of the back casing, the low quality camera, and so much more.
    I don't suggest this phone to anyone.

    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />

    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.

  • C3-01 The Worst phone ever nokia released....

    C3-01 The Worst phone ever nokia released....bcz of no poor software,does not provide basic functions where other cheap phone do,
    touch screen Problem...and so on....

    I contributed to this thread earlier:
     http:///t5/Cseries/C3-01-Problems-and-Limitations/m-p/1050133/highlight/false#M20370
    Since then I've resolved the WAP problem; but as the OP has stated, the problems I've had with mine have been far and away more than all the phones I've had in the past -combined!
    It fails on calls (I'm paying of the call, but nothing can be heard)..Today my touchscreen decided to go AWOL. and locked up..so I took out the battery, same again..then the battery AND the SIM card. Same again..It wouldn't unlock, the only buttons that worked were the push button ones...Then it decided it would work a little, and auto scrolled (Yes really!) the side bar..The it defaulted to the help screen without being touched (Battery out again)...then it worked as it should..but now...if I try to press an icon, it moves up the screen as I press it, so I can't actually open (for example) messages or my address book. If I hold the menu icon down for three seconds, it will eventually open up, but the rest won't..but it might all change in an hour or two..So yes, i agree with the original message it is probably the worse phone Nokia has released.

  • Beyond frustrated with worst computer ever

    I think I may have the most unlock/worst macbook pro ever created. Hang with me here.
    Background: Back in February my computer started becoming unresponsive and i went to the Apple store and turns out i had a dent in the side of my computer, an impact that likely busted the hard drive. Got that fixed and my computer ran great.....until about three weeks ago. Same thing started to happen again (stuff stopped working, lots of pinwheels, computer becoming completely unresponsive), I take it in again and lo and behold, there is another dent in the side of the computer, damaging the hard drive.....again. My computer barely leaves my desk other than to take it to class in a protective case, so this is perplexing to me, but i get it fixed anyways.
    Everything is all good for a day or two and it starts happening again. Great. The pinwheel shows up constantly, pages stop loading and crash almost every page...forcing me to manually power down the computer almost every time with the power button. Computer isn't even usable at this point. I go in to the apple store....again....and they tell me the last repair missed the real problem: the cable attaching to the hard drive. They fix this for free and i'm excited because this should be my ticket to a workable computer! Two days later....same problems again. Computer functions briefly well, then just completely freezes up, pages start crashing, and buttons (wifi, battery, finder arrow keys) start vanishing. I call Apple this time, on the phone, and they tell me what the 'REAL' problem is! When they went to fix the hard drive, they copied a portion of my hard drive onto it to save some of my info, and that portion was likely corrupted and so THAT is the problem! I deleted my hard drive info with the help of the Apple guy and reinstalled the OS software, in essence a brand-new computer and OS system.....with a week old hard drive.
    Everything was going great, computer was running faster than ever for a few days and occasionally a page would crash or computer would become unresponsive every ten or so hours, nothing like before, so I thought 'this is normal, my computer is finally okay. Last night, the same problems from before came back. The pinwheel progressively appeared more, pages started crashing almost every load, it took 10-15 min for my computer to start up and for the apps to show up, buttons (their text) on the top right of the screen and on finder are completely gone...again, the app store doesn't load and just produces a grey screen, etc, etc. My computer is fast for about half an hour, then just becomes completely unresponsive again and I have to manually power it down.
    Chrome also loses all my log-ins every time the computer gets turned off, despite my settings being set to 'remember me' and in the past never having this problem.
    tl;dr my computer has been 'repaired' three separate times in the last two weeks with three different solutions and is still at times completely unusable, crashing, buttons vanishing, etc. Worst computer ever. What is the issue?

  • Feedback for HP Sleekbook (Worst experience ever)

    I bought a Hp Sleekbook 14 after lots of friend and relatives told me to go for hp so i did.  Its hardly been two weeks and pin of my sleekbook adapter broke and when i call hp representative to replace as it is under accidental and damage warranty, they said we can't as charger is not covered under warranty, this was my first bad experience with hp, other companies replace charger also but hp doesn't. Second, when i went to hp service center, the workers talked so rashly that it frustrated me and they even didn't provide a solution.
    I would never ever recommend hp especially hp sleekbook to anyone, and what sort of charger is hp making that it get easily broken up and not even providing a replacement or new adapter at lesser rates.
    So this is my last request to hp if they can help somehow.
    Thanks

    i too have had the worst experience ever with hp. i brought the new sleekbook at the beginning of this year  a week after having it the screen turned black and stopped working luckily i was able to get a new computer under warranty, but then after 4 months of having it my charger broke, it too was not under warranty and i had to pay FULL PRICE, which i find to be absolutely ridicously especially when im a uni student and im living on my own with no help from parents, the hp service people were very un helpful and did not seem to care about my situation and my fustration with what had happened as my laptop is nessersary for assignments. they then went on to tell me that there was no chargers left in NZ for my particular laptop and had to order in which would take up to 2 weeks, but then they got my hopes up telling me they found a spare and i was able to purchase it the next day when my money came in because i did not have enough at the time as the charger was well over $100. i then rung up the next day to find out they do not hold, even after they ha promised me they did and had sold it to another person. after days of fustration and anger i got my charger. its now been two months since i purchased a new charger and the new one has broken again. i DO NOT want to pay full price for another charger which is bound to break again and i sure as hell do not want to go through the stress of the poor service i recieved. i would never suggest to anyone to buy hp.

  • Droid X: WORST phone EVER

    Worst phone EVER.  DO NOT BUY.
    * Constantly reboots
    * Constantly drops data connection
    * Totally ignores third-party email for about an hour on its own which is absolutely CRITICAL.
    * Will only get email immediately when its powered down, then up.
    * 3G coverage blows.
    I HATE AT&T and APPLE, but I miss my iPhone already and its only been a week.  But it WORKED, ALWAYS.
    They should renamer this the ROID X, because it is a PITA ***!
    I had a bag phone in the '90's that worked better than this.

  • Firefox 4 -- Is it the worst browser ever?

    I was using Firefox 3.??? and was prompted to upgrade to a newer version. I agreed to up-grade to 3.6.16 but when I went to download this I was fed Firefox 4. I have tried using 4 for about two weeks on an old Vaio laptop running Windows XP. It is unbelievably slow and crashes in every other site. Watching video online? Forget it. I loathe this new browser.
    I have just uninstalled 4 and reinstalled 3.6.16. This was very easy (a) download 3.6.16 from FileHippo or similar source. Go to your [drive name]:/programs/mozilla/firefox/uninstall folder and click on uninstall. Do not click the tab which uninstalls your personal bookmarks and add-ons etc. 4 is gone. Don't need to reboot. Just click on 3.6.16 and install. Everything up and running in one minute. 3.6.16 is what I expect from Firefox -- easy to use, lightening fast, and no site crashes (except when visiting this site, curiously enough). Will be staying with 3.6.16 for a year or so to give the nice folks at Mozilla time to (a) tar and feather those responsible for this fiasco then burn them at the stake (b) scrap 4 and (c) go straight to Firefox 5 without stopping at Go or picking up $200 as they pass.
    So, my question, is Firefox 4 the worst browser ever? I dunno but it is certainly the worst Mozilla browser I've ever tried using. Do you agree? Discuss.

    Downloaded version 4 today. Worst move of the day. I don't have the time to learn a whole new layout. It wasn't broken - don't fix it. Does NOT support Billeo which I use all the time. Deleted 4 and re-installed 3.6. Will NOT upgrade again.
