Fios modem,Problem with wire running to modem from bedroom

I have and I run a internet wire to my other room its about 10 to 15 feet ,going through the wall,and the PC is new and a very good one,at first it didn't work So we got another internet wire only work when it wanted to So we were told to get a new internet card (wrong). So I brought it in here and hook it up it works great NO Problems felt So sorry for my Dauther its most likely we got the wrong wire its black and the one the version uses is yellow.
My question is there different kinds of internet wires ,So I can get my dauther the right one.
Thank you so much

The color really has little to do with it. Any Cat5 or Cat6 ethernet cable should work. The router has auto crossover so it should connect regardless. Be sure you are plugging the cable into one of the LAN ports and not the WAN port on the router.
1. What operating system are you using?
2. What is the model of the router you are connecting to?
3. When you plug into the router, does the light for the port you plug into turn green? It should be the LAN # that corresponds to the connection you plugged into. No green light indicates a connection issue with the cable or Ethernet port on the router or PC.
4. Check the network connection on the system tray next to the clock. Does it have an red X on it? Icon with two montiors and a globe.
5. If you are running windows Vista or Windows 7, you can try the connection wizzard by right clicking on that icon and selecting connect to a network.
I hope this information gives you a starting point for troubleshooting. Also there is a tool you can download and possibly install on the computer to assist you in troubleshooting.

Possible internal modem problem with older iBook (Mac OS X 10.3.8)

I have an older iBook - from year 2000 or 2001. So its airport card is so old it's stopped reliably working & I don't know where I could find a replacement. In the meantime I want to get internet connection on it so I've tried plugging a phone cord from the wall outlet (that I always use succesfully for my desktop PC) into the laptop and typing in the phone #, account name and password of my desktop's internet account under "internal modem." BUT I keep getting a busy signal over & over when I dial up. I called my ISP & they thought it's a problem with my laptop's modem. I called Apple & they thought it's an issue with the ISP. Help?

Hi,
So its airport card is so old it's stopped reliably working & I don't know where I could find a replacement.
If you have been using an internal wireless network, the router (base station) should (normally) allow you to connect via an Ethernet cable from the corresponding port in the iBook as well.
BUT I keep getting a busy signal over & over when I dial up
Without knowing any details, this seems to indicate that the modem does work. Wrong number/own number? Have you checked that everything has been entered correctly according to the instructions from the ISP?
Could KB article # 106748 possibly be of any help here?

I guess I should have asked for the "definitive" fix. I read several "fixes" but it seems no one knows if Apple has a definitive fix. Kind of like going into an Apple store and getting three different answers from three different reps. At least they are not rude and no, I don't have a problem searching the forum.

Problem with: select 'c' as X from dual

Problem with 'select 'c' as X from dual'
I get 2 different results when I execute the above with SQLPlus (or java) depending on the instance I am connected to. For one instance the result is a single character and for the other the character is padded with blanks to 32 chars in the SQLPlus window (and java). Does anyone know what database setting causes this to happen? Is it a version issue ?

If the databases are on different Oracle Homes you may want to check the sqlplus global logon files for any set commands.
If you executed the two sql statements from different OS directories you may also want to check your sqlpath for sqlplus .logon files.
Try issueing clear columns and repeating the statement. Are the results the same?

OneKey Recovery 6.0. Problem with back up operating system from recovery cd'ies

Hello, i have problem with back up operating system from recovery cdies.
When i acceped start button to backup partition system i get an alert "space not enough"
I had linux before and i whant change it to windows back. i deleted all ext partitions. I have all unlocated space.I shouldnt have problems.
Please help me

I would use something like Partition Magic or Acronis Disk Director to first create a FAT32 partion for your C: Drive where your OS will go and be sure to leave 10GB or so unallocated for the secondary FAT32 Partition where your "factory image" will go.
You then create a Logical Drive with the unallocated space and make it hidden (PM or ADD will do this). Install your OS (preferably Windows XP if you want less problems) and then after you have setup everything the way you want (drivers, applications, etc), then use Acronis True Image to create your "factory restore" image on the hidden partition and activate the Startup Recovery Manager.
This is the way I do it and it works like a charm!

Intel iMac with Speedstream 5100 modem - problem with connection

I am running my internet/email using a Speedstream 5100 modem. My service is with SBC Yahoo (dsl line). My modem with stay up for a while and then at some point during the day decide not to work any more. I must turn it off and turn it back on (sometimes 3 or 4 times) to get it to work.
Is anyone else using this modem? Any problems with it? Should I call SBC and ask (or demand) a new modem???
Thanks!

rick,
Still having problems with my imac g4.
I called tech support today and I told them about all the problems that I was having. He had me put the current operating system disk that I was currently running on my computer and he had me run the utility file and nothing found.
Then he had me run the operating system disk that came with the computer but my computer froze up and I could not run it. He told me to take it in for service and that it was a hardware problem. After I hung up with the tech the computer started up and I ran the operating system disk and it said no problems with the hardware.
While the computer was still running,I got on the internet to go to the site that you listed above because I wanted to print a copy of the site to take with me tomorrow.
My computer froze up with 18 repeated lines of errors.
I will be taking it in for services tomorrow.
Will let you know what I find out.

Modem problems with neo2 865pe (help?!)

I just upgraded my computer today with the exception of sound card/cdrw/dv/modem everything is new!~
My problem is that I have modemblaster ESS chip modem and I am running windowsXP SP1. Windows sees it using IRQ18!
I have onboard FD controller, LAN, Com1, LPT1 enabled,
I have disabled com2 and onboard sound.
I have 2 optical drivs using the ata66 connector and 1 serial ata 80gig HD using both in native mode.
When I try to connect to the internet the computer immediatly disconnects. My ISP (earthlink) says this is a windowsxp or motherboard(modem) issue that they won't help with.
I purchased these upgrades just for online gaming and now I cant even get online. Windows XP says com1 and com3 are active yet there is absolutely nothing installed. I haven't installed anything but INTEL INF drivers, new bios (tried 1.0 and 1.40) and windowsxp updates. The modem is using the latest driver as well.
Windows XP shows the modem and S-ata controller are both using IRQ18 and nothing I do to manualy change the irq for pci slots in bios seems to have any effect.
Thanks in advance

When I built my computer I think the exact same thing happened to me. I could dial up but as soon as it began authenticating it would immediately disconnect me. I had a broadxtnd modem (something like that), on a guess I tried buying a different modem a Zoom and it works just fine. I tried all of the PCI slots with the old modem and none of them worked, this new modem is working just fine.

Problems with new Motorola SB6120 modem and BEFW11S4

I upgraded to Charter Communication's high-speed Internet and after a couple of weeks purchased the SB6120 modem to replace my old SB4100 as the speed was progressively dwindling. I cannot get my BEFW11S4 v2.0 router to work with the new modem. I have spent hours myself, with Charter and with the IT people through my work trying to get it to work (I am a remote office employee). The modem only works direct to my laptop. The second PC in the house uses the wireless service from the router so it's offline. I have reset the router to factory defaults. It looks like the router just does not see anything from the modem. The modem is a DOCSIS 3.0 unit. Is this just too much for my old router?
Thx.

The MAC address field was already filled, but i cloned it again following your linked instructions. I used the Phys Addr associated with my "Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection #" ("3", in my case). This did not solve the problem.
I also noticed an "Ethernet adapter Network Connect Adapter" listing with a different Phys Addr and with a description of "Juniper Network Connect Virtual Adapter". I think this is used for logging into my employer's VPN network, so I ignored it for the MAC cloning exercise.
So, problem still remains:
- Modem direct to PC works fine
- Modem to router & router to PC, does not --- but all the lights on the front of the router look normal.
I looked more into MAC addresses and in the Linksys Setup page there are TWO places showing this:
- Next to "WAN IP" --- this is where I entered the MAC address from the first paragraph above.
- Next to "LAN IP" --- this shows the MAC address of the router.
Do these appear to be the correct MAC addresses for each "location"?
Any other assistance is appreciated!
Thanks.

3G BT Broadband Huawei Modem problem with Tecra M5 or XP

Please can you help?
I have a Huawei E180 USB stick for accessing mobile broadband that was issued by British Telecom (BT). I want to use it with my Toshiba Tecra M5 (Model PTM 50E - 013013EN) laptop running XP Professional (SP3).
When inserted it is recognised by XP as a Huawei device but its pre-installed driver software does not autoload.
When I manually install the drivers downloaded seperately via BT connection manager software, I receive a generic/non specific Windows hardware conflict warning and the device will unfortunately not complete install and function.
I have spoken at length with BT support but despite sending me a replacement device and checking USB power supply the problem persists and they have been unable to help resolve the issue and have left the problem with me to try and resolve simply saying I must have a problem with my laptop!
As far as I am aware my Toshiba laptop and XP operating system have the latest released updates and other USB devices such as flash storage and WinTV tuners all work perfectly when installed so please can you advise what else I can try or what further information I can supply for you to assist me?
The device does install and work as expected in another Windows Vista Home Premium PC.

Eureka...Success thanks to Google and Huawei support.
Having run a Huawei diagnostic tool and displayed hidden devices in device manager, I discovered old Fusion and Globetrotter 3G/GPRS drivers were still installed despite having been removed by the add/remove software utility. So I finally uninstalled them from device manager.
This must have helped avoid any potential conflicts however, I think the main issue was missing usb.inf and usb.pnf files from windows\inf once I obtained them from another XP SP3 PC (a known good install) and put them in that folder, rebooted, reinstalled BT connection manager and rebooted again.
Then as soon as I inserted USB dongle it did everything it says on the tin!
So in the end a relatively simple fix in a matter of minutes....What a pity then since the end of July, I have had to sweat blood and tears myself, facing the wrath of 'the financial director' for wasting our money and my time, to eventually find a solution from Huawei (the manufacturer/supplier of the BT device) when BT Helpdesk could/should surely have got this answer quicker themselves and I bet this is a solution that many others will find resolves their problems as well. What a waste of hours and hours on the phone to BT Mobile Helpdesk.
Still a couple of minor glitches (do I really need 3 or 4 clients (2 at least from BT) trying to manage my wireless client?) and Desktop Help doesn't even support the 3G BT mobile device so why does it insist on trying to when I lose a signal?
Hey ho, rant mode over, the good news is I still have 4 or 5 days to use my 1GB 'free' allowance for this month. Finally, thanks to Tim Naish and Archibald Duffer on BT forum for their time and hope they find this solution of interest.

Fios upload problem with firefox

just got 25Mb/25Mb Fios along with the Extreme HD tv service installed today and was having upload speed problems while running Firefox. Had speed of 25Mb download but 4-7Mb upload. Tested with IE8 and got download of 24-25Mb and upload of 21Mb. Did another test with Google Chrome and got better result same 24Mb-25Mb download and 23-24Mb of upload. What is the problem here with Firefox? Currently running Window Vista Ultimate 64-bit version all updated to latest version, Intel i920 OC to 3.8Ghz, 6GB of Corsair Dominator DDR3 triple channel ram, Asus Deluxe P6T motherboard, ATI Raedon 4870 X2 (yea i know its a little old, but was waiting for the new videocards to get a little cheaper before upgrading to either the ATI 5870 or nVidia 470), harddrives are 300GB Velicoraptor and 1TB Seagate 7200rpm and 2TB WD Green drive. Use this PC mainly for online gaming MMO's and FPS's games. This PC was built around 2 years ago so parts are a little old, but was having no problem at my old home with Fios 15Mb/5Mb plan, got what i paid for there with the Firefox. 15Mb download and 5Mb upload everytime i tested the speed out for 3-5 months since it was installed.
Ran both Speedtest.net and Speaskeasy.net tests. Fios guys even ran the optimizers and that didn't help at all, they said since this was an issue with Firefox and not IE or Chrome that was not really Verizon problem since i was able to get ~25Mb upload speed on the other 2 broswer. Is anyone else having problem with their Firefox Upload Speed?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Be sure you have the latest version of Firefox/3.6.6. Some of the older versions may have had issues. I did a google search and only found the postings for upload speed issues from 2009 and back.

Problem with threads running javaw

Hi,
Having a problem with multi thread programming using client server sockets. The program works find when starting the the application in a console using java muti.java , but when using javaw multi.java the program doesnt die and have to kill it in the task manager. The program doesnt display any of my gui error messages either when the server disconnect the client. all works find in a console. any advice on this as I havent been able to understand why this is happening? any comment would be appreciated.
troy.

troy,
Try and post a minimum code sample of your app which
does not work.
When using javaw, make sure you redirect the standard
error and standard output streams to file.
Graeme.Hi Graeme,
I dont understand what you mean by redirection to file? some of my code below.

A few problems with Leopard running on my White iMac...

I have only found 2 problems so far with Leopard running on my iMac. First off, the most annoying one:
Sometimes, especially when switching users, the screen turns to the "gray screen of death." You know, the one with the request to restart your computer in like 4 languages and a huge picture of a power button... anyway, it is getting quite annoying and I wish I could make it stop. It has also happened when I have been dealing with moving large amounts of data, "large pictures, movies, etc.)
And now, the second problem. I was just looking up the memory left on my hard drive when I noticed something I hadn't before. my 160gb hard drive had 50gb left. not too strange there. but when I checked through all the things (apps, users, system, library, developer, etc.) in it (I simply did apple-i and checked the gb each of them took up) and after a quick add-up on my calculator widget, all the things in the hard drive added up to 50gb. so I have 50gb free, 50gb used and a 160gb hard drive. How does that work? Do I need to do something to get that extra 60gb back or is it just gone???

You can run the same command without the 'sudo' prefix. It might

Problem with MRP running

Hello Gurus,
i have a problem with my product. lets take an example. my semifinished product abc is made up of a, b and c.
i have made them(abc, a, b and c) to use MRP type VB. i made palnning file entry and BOM and then i run the MRP.
I run single item multilevel MRP for semi-finished product abc, it showed me result in MRP running only for abc but not for a, b and c.
can u please tell me where i am making any mistake.
regards

Hi Maggi,
If you have used mrp run for single item,single level planning (ie) md03, it will plan only for that particular material & will not plan for the dependent material in the BOM.
If you run with t.code md02, MRP run for single item,multi level, all the dependent requirements will be planned.
Also VB is for reorder point planning. ie if you maint reorder level as 100 for a,b & c materials & if the stock goes below 100, say 50 Nos. for all the three material. Then procurement proposal(Pur req) will be created for 50 nos for all the material(a,b,c).
If you use MRP type PD, there is no question of reorder level, during mrp run system check the stock of the dependent requirements. If there is a shortage procurement proposal are created.

Problem with Macro Running When Closing a Document

Hi Folks;
I'm trying to develop a Visio macro that runs when I close a document, but I've run into a snag...
The problem is that the code below only works when I press the 'X' in the corner of the document to close it. If I try to close it using
File -> Close, I get the error "Run Time Error -2032464741 (86db0c9b) An exception occurred", and the debugger highlights the first 'Application' line.
I need the code to work regardless of the close operation, and I'm not sure how to make that happen (since I assumed it should've work the same regardless).
Private Function Document_QueryCancelDocumentClose(ByVal doc As IVDocument) As Boolean
Document_QueryCancelDocumentClose = True
If MsgBox("If you made changes, did you UPDATE the Diagram History? (Select Yes if no changes were made)", vbYesNo + vbCritical + vbDefaultButton2, "Warning - DIAGRAM HISTORY UPDATED?") = vbYes Then
Application.ActiveDocument.Pages.ItemU("Diagram").Layers.Item("Warning").CellsC(4) = 1
Document_QueryCancelDocumentClose = False
Else
Document_QueryCancelDocumentClose = True
End If
End Function
Any help would be appreciated.
Zang

I'm betting your typical "try this" response is not what anyone wants. But since you've chimed in... my problems with the Visio event model are PLENTY. Print and save events that cannot be cancelled, document close that doesn't fire on application
close, and Application.BeforeDocumentSaveAs that occurs WAY AFTER the document has been saved are just a few. (Did Microsoft even test these events??) The official Microsoft response to ALL of this was, in a word, "repurpose" it. Essentially they
advocate completely rewriting the actual Save and Print portions of the interface and corresponding logic in Visio by intercepting keystrokes and redirecting ribbon extensibility idMso ="FileSave" and idMso ="FileSaveAs" commands to your own methods.
To quote paid support:
"You may repurpose Save command in Visio as suggested in my previous email, however there is a design limitation that does not allow repurposing Print backstage button.
In order to achieve Visio Print repurpose, the workaround is to hide the print back stage altogether and plug with custom backstage ribbon xml."
We now also repurpose idMso="FilePrintQuick", idMso="FilePrintPreview", and idMso="FileClose" customUI commands, but we still had to use the logic above to catch save before closing.
Valid methods that work while Visio is active will fail within Application close. IT IS A BUG IN VISIO. That is what this post is about.
