Firebird connection problem over LAN

Hi, people this is my 7th day i fight with firebird on Arch to work on my LAN in work.
The database is working on localhost when i go ./islq and select * all is ok and i see
all that crap in my fdb base.
At first i must say that port 3050 and 3051 are open and all other things that i configured
like ssh, nomachine and murmur are working and i can connect to them even over internet.
But when i try connect to database over lan i got connection refuse errors and info that cant connect
to database.
Firebird is 2.1.3 CS installed from official tarball from firebirdsql.org
Before Arch on server was CentOS and firebird was working fine
i changed the os because i love Arch and crappy CentOS was slow
and after some updates start to crashing.
Plz post your ideas and concepts i need help !!
PS. sorry for my English i hope you understand me

Did you try install firebird from AUR!?

  • Firebird connection problem

    Hello Freinds,
    I have posted this message before regarding the connectivity problem with firebird database, running inside the FreeBSD O/S.
    When I try to create a connection object through JCA-JDBC driver but i could not get it, instead I got the Exception like this
    Exception:
    Error Codeorg.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBSQLException: Resource Exception. Unable to com
    plete network request to host "3050".
    Failed to locate host machine.
    The specified name was not found in the hosts file or Domain Name Services.
    Reason: Unable to complete network request to host "3050".
    Failed to locate host machine.
    The specified name was not found in the hosts file or Domain Name Services.
    What does it mean, and How to solve this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Is '3050' the name of the host you're trying to connect ? Or is it the port-number ? Sounds like your connection URL may be incorrect. Alternatively, you might rely on name-resolution of a netbios (windows machine name) which isn't going to work if your JDBC client is not running windows.

  • Connection problems using LAN with WRT-160n

    Hello everyone.  I am having a big problem conneting to the internet using a LAN to my computer.  The things that I have wireless are the PS3 and Wii, but they work fine (well except when I bought the Wii I had to change some Wireless Settings that i found here in the forums).  When I just run my cable directly to my modem it works fine.  As soon as I hook up the router the problems begin.  I can use google and thats about it. Does anyone have any ideas??

    It is possible that you are wirelessly connected to your neighbour's network and your router is not configured...
    To configure your router follow this if your ISP is Cable...
    If your ISP is DSL follow this

  • Cisco AnyConnect connection problem over WiFi

    Hi guys, 
    I'm having some problem with Cisco AnyConnect connections.
    hardware: ASA 5515-x with AnyConnect Essentials.
    software:  ASA Software Version 9.1(2)8
                    anyconnect-win-3.1.05187-k9.pk
                    Internet Explorer 11 on computers
    Problem:
    Can't connect with the AnyConnect WebLaunch on WiFi. 
    it's stucked for about 20sec at "Please wait while the VPN connections is established"
    Then we get this error message "The IPsec VPN connection was terminated due to an atuchentication failure or timeout...."
    If I click Connect in the AnyConnect Client it connects and I login with my credentials without any problem.
    First thought was that my test-computer was the problem, but have tried with 3 different PCs with different hardware.  
    If i plugg in a network cable it works perfect with the WebLaunch.
    Has anyone experience the same problem and have a solution?
    Thanks in advance!

    Robin
    Update: 
    I still go the problem, I've updated our FW to ASA9.2(2.4).
    Anyone have a clue? It works good on two of our ASA5505.

    The Windows Vista PC that were having problem connecting via AnyConnect, were they an upgrade from Windows XP? If they are, and they have AnyConnect installed prior, it needs to be uninstall prior to upgrading to Windows Vista as per the AnyConnect release notes:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/docs/security/vpn_client/anyconnect/anyconnect24/release/notes/anyconnect24rn.html
    Also, you might want to double check that the Vista is either with SP2 or Vista SP 1 with KB952876.

  • Wake over LAN

    Since updating to X.6.8 my MP has problems waking remotely. I'm connected to my router by Ethernet.
    I haven't tried all that much to resolve this as I'm not aware there is anything else but the wake over LAN checkbox to enable this service. I have tried unchecking the box and re-checking it, I've also tried restarting my router and setting a different length of time before the MP goes to sleep.
    Oddly enough I can wake the MP if I try a little time after it goes to sleep, but if I leave it for several hours it won't wake.
    It isn't just one situation/application that won't wake it either, my Apple TV won't, shared devices from the finder on other macs won't and other services like the Apple remote app and eyeTV app from the iPhone won't either.
    Any thoughts.

    hoping someone can help me here, as I want to accomplish WOL in my workplace. I'm in a building that has a central router that divides the internet into 4 different offices (into jacks in the wall). The central router is a linksys befsr41 that I don't have access to because it belongs to the property manager. The central router's ip address is 192.168.1.1 This router is not wireless, but I need wireless in my office, so I have my wrt54gc in my office to use with my tablet pc. I've gotten my computer to wake up no problem over LAN at home, over WAN at home (from remote location), but when I'm at my office (2 routers chained together) I don't know what I need to do to get it to work consistently. So my questions are: 1. What settings, if any, do i need to change on the central router? Do I need to port forward to the IP of MY router (or my CPU)?? 2. Same question for my router? I've looked all over the net and can't find any info on what to do for WOL in a multiple router environment such as mine. I guess I need to somehow tell that magic packet thingy to go through the central router, then through my router, and recognize my MAC address and ip. I really appreciate help in this matter.

  • Wake-over-LAN with WRT54GX2

    I'd like to wake up my computer over the internet, so I'm trying to use the Wake-on-LAN feature.
    I can get it to work when waking from the local network....but I can't over the internet. I've read that I need to forward the right port to 192.168.1.255, but I can't forward to that address.
    Is there anything I can do?

  • Remote Speaker connection over LAN

    Even the Genius bar were puzzled over this one....
    I have several airport express's and an AppleTV on my network connected wirelessly and hard-wired to my LAN.  I also have an iMac & MBA on the network which both use itunes.  The MBA can stream music to all the airport devices with no problem at all allong with iphones & ipads.  but my iMac which contains my master library will not play to any of the airports or appleTV when it is connected to the LAN.....? 
    If I disconnect the iMac from the LAN & access the network wirelessly I am able to stream to remote speakers. 
    my first thought was to bond my LAN connection to my wireless conncetion, but I lost internet connection when I did this.
    Any suggestion?

    is anyone aware of any third part applications that allow you to bond a lan & wireless connection?  it seems strange that the airplay function works well when the mac is connected to my network wirelessly...
    the Apple genus bar have recommended that I take all my network equipment into the store to try and resolve the issue, byt I am reluctant to do so as it is a lot of equipment.

  • HOME LAN CONNECTION PROBLEM

    HOME LAN CONNECTION PROBLEM
    I set up a 2 unit home net with a Linksys WRT54G Router, One PC hardwired to Port 1 and a Notebook conected via the wireless port. Both PC are Pentium and WXPPRO.
    When I try to browse the local workgroup ("MICASA") I get the following error message: "You have no access to "WorkGroup". You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The server list for this workgroup is not accessible at this moment."
    Wireless has MAC filter enabled and security disabled
    I restricted DHCP adresses to only 2 => 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.1.101
    Win XP Pro Firewall is disabled in both PC
    I worked as ADMIN with proper password in both boxes. Full file security enabled.
    Shared both C disks with proper local and share permits.
    In registry both PCs have: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/Lsa/"restrictanonimous"=0
    I could see both PCs in "my network places" for a couple of days, with full and proper file sharing, and then both pc's dissapeared. Both PC's access internet properly.
    The obnoxious message listed at the beginning began appearing when I click "Workgroup" in "my network places". I tried everything, including unsetting and re-setting file sharing for C disks. Nothing happens.
    The W2K Resource Kit Browser Monitor reports no brouser on the LAN.
    I can ping one adress from the other and I can log onto the other box shares by typing the name in Windows Explorer (\\Pentium or \\PCdeLidia)
    Any clue will be welcome

    Thank you, timelord.
    I checked the Node setting (ipconfig /all) and it is "broadcast".
    So, I decided to start all over again.
    1) I un-shared all shares in both computers (The notebook and the desktop).
    2) I reset the linksys router and used the Linksys setup wizard to reconfigure it from 0 (cero) - dropped (disabled)  ALL security - Left only admin setup password - Changed the workgroup SSID from "MyHome" To "Home" - just to be sure.
    3) Run network setup wizard in desktop (WXP Pro). Sharing Printers and files enabled.
    4) Stopped and Disabled the WXP firewall in the Desktop (it was disabled, but the network wizard enables it and leaves it running)
    5) Rebooted the Desktop
    6) At this point, I finally could browse the local lan and see my desktop listed
      My Network Places / All the Net / Microsoft Windows Network / "Home" / "Pentium" (my desktop)
    7) Went over to the notebook and re-checked all file-sharing was off, then I erased the WI-FI profile in it (uses the Intel wizard), changed the workgroup name from "My Home" to "Home", Rebooted it and connected it to the Wi-Fi "Home" net that was detected. ALL security disabled, including WXP Firewall.
    8) Now, the whole net is visible from both PC's
      My Network Places / All the Net / Microsoft Windows Network / "Home" / "Pentium" (my desktop)
      My Network Places / All the Net / Microsoft Windows Network / "Home" / "PCdeLidia" (my wife's  notebook)
    9) I enabled a couple of shares in both machines and I could browse them and connect to them
    10) Finally, all goes to hell: I shut-off both PCs and the LinkSys router. Then I powered the linksys, and then the Desktop. The notebook still OFF. And Voilá, same awful post:
    "You have no access to "WorkGroup". You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The server list for this workgroup is not accessible at this moment."
    I'm not even able to see myself.
    One tip: I used the browser monitor from W2K. Before, I was able to see 3 (three) lines listed, no browser. Unfortunately, i did not write it down. Now I can see only the following 2 (two) lines:
    MiCasa \Device\NetBT_TCPIP_ {€ unknown  (Not an Euro sign, something like that)
    MiCasa \Device\NwlnkNb         unknown
    Now I have to quit, no more time, I'll continue later and keep you posted
    Thank you again

  • LAN connection problems

    Hi, I am having connection problems with my AirPort Extreme base station. I have had it working in since March 2005 just fine, that is until 2 weeks ago.
    I have an iMac G5 connecting to the AirPort base through a Ethernet cable and an iBook (graphite G3) wirelessly via an airport card. The AirPort base is wired to the DSL modem via Ethernet cable. With the iMac not connected to the base station the iBook works fine on the wireless connection. The iMac connects fine to the internet when connected to the DSL modem directly. But, when I connect the iMac to the base station I am losing my internet connection to both the iBook and the iMac. I have checked the IP address being fed the iMac and am getting a 169.??? number which, as I understand is a bogus number used to signal problems, a red flag.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks for your help.

    Make sure that you have PPPoE disabled on your iMac.
    I have checked the IP address being fed the iMac and am getting a 169.??? number which, as I understand is a bogus number used to signal problems, a red flag.
    An IP address starting with 169 indicates that your iMac could not properly communicatewith the DHCP server.

  • Hub broadband connection problem - requires regula...

    Hi,
    We've been having problems with our connection. Often the hub stops broadcasting wirelessly (and will cut out over LAN as well), but all of the lights remain blue on the hub. Weirdly enough, the network still appears as an available WIFI/LAN connection, but any computer that tries simply can't connect to it. The only way of solving this is to reset the hub - otherwise 
    We've had a new hub, 3 engineers come round and tell us that "The line's fine, everything at the exchange is fine, you should be getting 7-8 mb/s.", and not to mention hours and hours talking to BT's call centres in India.
    Still we have to reset the hub sometimes up to 20 times a day.
    I have absolutely no idea what the root of the problem is, but there is a recurring theme as to when it's more likely to cut out:
    When you download 2 or more files at a time (and I'm not talking about illegally torrenting stuff)
    When more than one person is connected to the hub
    When it's plugged into the main socket (?????????)
    Apart from the last one (which doesn't make any sense whatsoever), it seems that whenever the line is in heavy use, the hub stops broadcasting.
    All my friends with various other providers (to the best of my knowledge) haven't had any problems like this, and I will definitely not be renewing my contract with BT.
    In the meanwhile, does anyone have any suggestions? We've tried changing the channels.
    Here are the stats from our ADSL line (just running the bt speedtester at the moment, will post up results when it's done):

  • RG54G2 Wireless Router Internet Connection Problem

    Hi,
    (apologies for the long message - trying to cover all details - summary: wireless router often drops internet connection)
    I recently bought an RG54G2 Wireless Router, a CB54G2 PCMCIA Wireless card and a D-Link GWL-630 PCMCIA Wireless card.  In addition to two laptops connected to the wireless router WLAN, I have two PCs (one Win WP Pro SP 1 and one Win98SE) connected to the router via wired LAN.  I also have a SurfBoard SB3100 Cable Modem connected to the WAN port (this connects to my ISP -  Optusnet (Australia) via DHCP).
    The problem I have is that the internet connection is disconnected many times a day (often every few minutes, sometimes an hour or so).  I am able to reconnect by resetting the wireless router via the wireless router configuration page.  When the internet is disconnected I am still able to access the computers on the LAN/WLAN (via Windows Explorer and Ping), I am also able to ping the router and the Cable Modem, but nothing outside of the cable modem.
    Also, when the internet is disconnected the System Status page indicates that the router is still connected to the internet, and the Diagnostics page passes the Test Connection test, though no external pings work.
    I did not have this problem when the cable modem was connected directly to the Win98SE PC (and other PCs via ICS).
    I have disabled the WLAN and the problem still exists with only the wired LAN.
    I have changed numerous settings in the wireless router config page with no success (eg disabling DHCP and setting each IP address, minimising LAN and WLAN speeds to 10 and 11MBps plus others).
    I have upgraded the wireless router firmware to R1.0.6.0 (no change to the problem).
    Searching on Google I have found several other cases of routers with unstable internet connections (none refering to the MSI routers), but none had solutions that helped my situation (most replies suggested updating the firmware).
    Any suggestions of how to make the router internet connection stable?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    maybe this is the FIX 4 wireles router internet connection problem
    please let me know if any one fix the problem with this tips
    thankz

    Subject: SOLUTION to my router loosing connection to Windows XP
    Reply | Reply to Author | Forward | Print | Individual Message | Show original | Report Abuse
    I am happy to report that after 8 days of constant battles, reboots, phone
    calls, cable pulling, router changing, it seems that I finally have found a
    combination that has had me using Verizon DSL account for over 12 hours so
    far without any kind of interruptions.
    Since so many of you tried giving me comments and suggestions, I felt that
    it is necessary for me to post this here so that the next person will not
    (hopefully) need to go through this hell as I did!
    My original problem was that when after I purchased a D-Link Wireless Router
    DI-624, I would get disconnected from Verizon DSL at least once every 2
    hours or so. My internet access would "freeze" and then a little popup box
    at the bottom right system tray would tell me that the "LAN cable has been
    unplugged".   After about a minute or so, my internet connection would be
    back working   This was NEVER happening during the 2+ years I was using my
    Westell modem alone (running in router mode).
    Please keep in mind: The problem I was having was not wireless related as
    it was happening to the desktop computer to which the router/westell was
    connected to!
    During these last 8 days, I tried: one DI-624 wireless router, two Netgear
    614v3 routers and two Linksys WRT54G v.2 routers. In addition, I received a
    brand new Westell 2200 modem from Verizon.   I also tried about four
    different CAT-5 cables. Here is the final outcome:
    I have the Linksys WRT54G (version 2) wireless router connected to the
    Netgear Fast Ethernet FA310TX network card in Auto-Sense mode (using the
    built-in XP drivers, as Netgear told me that there was never a newer
    revision released). I have DISABLED the built-in 3Com Gigabit LOM (3C940)
    network card (via the ASUS P4C800 Deluxe motherboard BIOS), DISABLED the
    Zero Wireless Configuration service, and have put in the IP/Gateway/DNS
    address numbers inside my Windows XP Network Connections | LAN setup. My
    operating system is Windows XP Pro SP1 and the modem is a Westell 2200
    configured as bridge only.
    If my situation continues to be stable, I *might* try to go back to the 3Com
    built-in card (disable any power management) and then re-enabling the Zero
    Wireless Configuration services. But in reality, I am happy with the way
    things are and have already spent enough time trying to get my router to
    work with Verizon DSL without having it drop connections!
    Now, the next step will be setting up the WIRELESS part of this. I don't
    even yet have a laptop with me on the premises, but the 802.11g card that I
    already have is the D-Link DWL-G650. I hope and assume that this will work
    okay with the Linksys...
    One thing I must say is that I never realized that how many problems other
    users are having. I would have thought that since 802.11x has been around
    in the mainstream by now 2+ years, that things would have been much more
    "system friendlier".   And again, my issues were not even WIRELESS related.
    All 3 tech supports were not really helpful, as none of them realized that
    the problem is somehow between the router and Windows XP (Ethernet card?)
    loosing a connection, which of course results in Verizon DSL loosing the
    connection also.
    One other comment about the Netgear 614 v.3 router: A number of people have
    responded to tell me that they have had this random "router resetting"
    happen to them (where the routers behaves as if someone turned the power off
    and then back on, and the lights flash) just as if you first turn it on). I
    was lucky to witness it myself during one of the "disconnects" that I had.
    This was actually the reason why I went back to try the Linksys one more
    time. So, I would definitely recommend staying way from this 614 (version
    3) model.
    Once again - THANK YOU everyone!

  • Unending connectivity problems -- and Desktop Help...

    I'm wasting so much time on connectivity problems that it's positively wearying. Prior to the installation of BT Infinity here in April, I had a low quality broadband service because of the length of the line from the exchange: if I could get a download speed of 1.2Mbps and an upload of a quarter of that, I was doing well. 
    BT advised that thanks to fibre optic, my Internet should run much faster. So we had Infinity installed. I'm registered with Speedtest.net so am able to see my performance record.
    The average download speed is now aroun d 6Mbps and the average upload, more than that at 7Mbps. How an upload speed can consistently be faster than a download escapes me.
    But I'm not familiar with the ways of Internet connectivity and try as a I might, can't get my head around it.
    This desktop computer runs Vista OS. Vista was **bleep** when it came out and is renowned for its botched handling of Internet connections. So I'm not blaming BT for the literally unending connectivity problems that are occurring now, with line drops, speeds slowing to a crawl, and no guarantee that any connection will last. But it would be good to actually use BT software to help fathom out what's going wrong here, and today's typical morning which looks like this:
    1) Boot up computer. Automatic connection to hub via Netgear USB wireless adapter. Hub is on ground floor of this 3-storey property but signal strength from hub  is excellent, as confirmed by inSSIDer monitoring, currently showing 54 with no other networks anywhere near that figure.
    2) Perhaps 5 minutes after connection established, it's then lost. 'Local Only' is displayed. This is, apparently, a known Vista problem. But Microsoft has issued a fix for it. I know this, because it took 100 hours of ploughin g the Net to find out that MS had finally admitted to one more Vista screw-up. I've used the Microsoft router "fix it" before and it didn't work ("failed to process") so uninstalled it and have DL'd it again now and run it. This time it says it has fixed everything.
    3) Computer is re-booted to make the fix effective. Computer connects to Internet. Speedtest.net check yet again confirms that upload speed is faster than download speed.
    4) Connection dies. So much for Microsoft Fix It.
    5) Windows diagnostics reports that it can re-set the IP profile (or something.) I click yes. The re-set goes through. Connectivity is restored. 10 minutes later, connectivity is lost. Just a red X in the tray. No connection of any kind, not even that daft 'Local Connection' only alert.
    6) Reboot. Yet again. BT Desktop Help was installed here and ran OK when we were using our Netgear DSG34 router. But since the change to the BT Hub, the BT program has never run at all. So-oo. . . It has been uninstalled. And then re-DL'd and re-installed. And though the installation  has been completed, clicking on 'launch' has failed to launch anything. But anyway. An hour ago, in one of the brief periods today when the Internet connection was holding up, I Revo-ed out the earlier install, DL'd BT desktop Help and re-installed it. . . and I'm still at the same stage as always, with a  Firefox browser page that's open and completely blank and has been for the past 30 minutes.

     Repeated page re-loading gets nowhere. Malwarebytes PRO is turned OFF to prevent any possibility of blocking and the antivirus is termporaily SUSPENDED. This PC runs on Windows standard firewall but even turning that OFF doesn't get the page to load. Copying the address into Internet Explorer in case there's a Firefox problem merely results in Firefox being opened and the same blank page running there.
    7) After all that. . . Connection lost yet again and this time, Windows cannot connect at all. It reports that the "wireless network security key is not correct". I happen to know that it is, because this is maybe the 20th time it has reported this in the past 10 days and every time I have to key in the "correct" key all over again. . . at which point Windows still says it isn't correct and cannot repair.
    Turning off the computer completely, unplugging from the wall, holding in the power switch for a full minute to clear the circuits, traipsing up and dowen three flights of stairs to turn off the hub, then wait, then turn the power back onm again. . . Ah, wot fun times I'm having here with my particular versioin of Infinity (as in, an infinity of connectivcity problems.)
    Summary: I seem to be being simultaneously hit with one issue after another.
    I'm bewildered as to why ever since Infinity was installed here, my upload speed is generally faster than my download speed. I'm not happy with endless Internet connection failures though am thinking that Vista is playing a large part here with its "wrong security key" and unending 'Local Only / Limited Connection' failures. I do miss my Netgear router and the ability to access a fantastic help menu and re-boot directly from the desktop without having to keep going up and down three flights of sdtairs to do so (I haven't been able to find out how toe access the BT Hub remotely.)
    Above all though: I'm  really tired of repeatedly trying to run freshly downloaded and installed BT Desktop Help software but getting no further than a blank page because the program has stalled.
    If anyone has any advice / suggestions, other than to buy a carrier pigeon, that'd be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Thanks again to John and gg30340. Here's an update:
    1) BT Desktop Help removed completely from this computer. The uninstaller itself mopped up everything, which surprised me. But anyway.
    2) Bt Home Hub manager set up and working. Had to input serial number and create new password. All of this sounds fairly easy and would be if one had the device near the desk. But the idiots who built this property shoved the BT master socket inside the garage next to the door. Our two home computers are on the third floor. To ensure the wireless signal strength is OK, the Hub and Infinity module/device/whatever it's called are on a high shelf. It's a major job to even reach the darn things, never mind read the labels seeing as how the BT Infinity engineer was good enough to tidy up the cabling and make a very tight connection to the wall socket.
    3) I had hoped to be able to back up the Hub's settings, seeing as the software provides for Advanced Settings / System / Backup. But not on mine (Hub 3.0). All that System allows is choosing which internet clock to define the accurate time. Everything else in System is just a pattern of short lines as if trying to indicate that there's some text there but it's invisible.This is now my second encounter with BT software which, for whatever reason, isn't functioning as it should on this PC.
    4) Hub reset to factory fresh, according to BT guide.
    5) Reset appears to have achieved nothing apart from requiring the password to be popped in again. After reset, it wasn't even possible to connect to the hub manager. Internet connectivity was eventually established for all of 30 seconds and then, gone.
    6) Computer was shut down and then booted anew. Internet connectivity is still. . . dreadful. One minute everything's fine and then, literally,. the next minute a webpage won't load. Even opening the Hub Manager has taken three attempts, i.e., disconnecting from the Internet, re-connecting, failing, and trying twice more until success. Yet all the time these failures are occurring, the tray icon is showing a steady, unwavering green icon for Local and Internet access -- despite the fact, there manifestly isn't any.
    7) Speedtest. net tests are actually showing upload and download 'trajectories' going slower and slower and finally halting at some point on the arc, then after a period of up to 30 seconds, suddenly becoming animated again. Speed test results with broadband speed checker UK and Think Broadband's checker are so at variance with one another, and with Speedtest, net, that it seems all three are using different technologies in pursuit of the same thing. Either way, upload speeds continue to be much, much faster than download speeds, a state of affairs I certainly have never encountered before.
    8) Speedtest net tests taken in the past 10 minutes, with one test following on from its predecessor, begin at 8.24 down/8.88 up, followed by 5.24 down / 6.40 up, followed by a mind-numbingly lonnnnng 0.62 down / 8.70 up -- in other words, a continuous yo-yoin g of Internet connectivity to the pooint that it actually might as well not even be here (I've had to make five attempts just to get on to this forum. . .)
    9) BT Speedtest will necessitate disconnection of everything downstairs and all boxes being lugged up here. This is actually going to require uncoililng tied-off cabling and hanging off a stepladder to do so -- though I surely can't be the only person in Britain who doesn't have a nice, handy BT master socket in their study or lounge. That said though: until we switched to Infinity, we *never* experienced these kinds of horrendous connectivity problems and never had need to unplug the Netgear router downstairs and bring it upstairs to connect directly to tjhe desktop PC so BT's own test could be run.
    I'll just have to get to work dismantling stuff tomorrow. However, I have to say that after a factory re-set which has changed nothing at all, I'm beginning to think there's a problem with the BT line itself (hence why I'm happy to follow the advice here, though less than happy at the prospect of the messing about involved.)
    Thanks, you two, for your patient help, and also for clarifying the situation re the three signal paths being shown on inSSIDer. At least I know that's usual now! And now, hopefully, when I press 'Post', I won't be faced with an endlessly spinning Firefox circle culminating in  what may well be, or seem to be, the 57,938th time today of seeing "Page Not Found". . .

  • Network connection problems, please help!

    I have had an iPod Touch (4th generation) for over a year now and it worked fine. Today, something went wrong with my network connection. One moment it says that I'm connected to a network, and a few seconds later it says I'm not connected... Then a few seconds later it's connected again. I have full wifi bars, and it does it throughout my whole house. The wifi symbol keeps going on and off. I tried turning my Verizon Westell Model 6100G Modem off and back on because this normally fixes my wifi connection problems. This didn't work. Then I tried turning my iPod off and back on. This didn't work. I tried turning the wifi off and back on. This didn't work. I tried forgetting my network and signing back in. This didn't work. I also tried resetting the network, and this didn't work either. I'm not having any connection problems with my laptop, it's working fine. It's only my iPod. I'm still able to use the wifi, but for a split second, it will not work. I'm not sure what else to do. It's very annoying! I'm going to see if it does this at other peoples houses with their wifi. Can any one tell me what's wrong and how I should fix it? My only theory is a broken antenna...Please help! Thanks!

    I have two things you could try.
    1. Plug your iPod into the host computer that which the network is based around because sometimes the network has trouble identifying a device if it has been a while since you plugged it into the computer.
    2. Find some way to get your network information (IP address, Subnet Mask, Router, DNS numbers) from another device on the network (e.g. laptop). Then go to Settings > Wi-FI and find your router and tap the blue arrow to the right of the name and tap the tab that says "Static" and enter this information accordingly. Then exit back to the network names menu and re-enter your passcode for your network (assuming you have a passcode)

  • Interactive report performance problem over database link - Oracle Gateway

    Hello all;
    This is regarding a thread Interactive report performance problem over database link that was posted by Samo.
    The issue that I am facing is when I use Oracle function like (apex_item.check_box) the query slow down by 45 seconds.
    query like this: (due to sensitivity issue, I can not disclose real table name)
    SELECT apex_item.checkbox(1,b.col3)
    , a.col1
    , a.col2
    FROM table_one a
    , table_two b
    WHERE a.col3 = 12345
    AND a.col4 = 100
    AND b.col5 = a.col5
    table_one and table_two are remote tables (non-oracle) which are connected using Oracle Gateway.
    Now if I run above queries without apex_item.checkbox function the query return or response is less than a second but if I have apex_item.checkbox then the query run more than 30 seconds. I have resolved the issues by creating a collection but it’s not a good practice.
    I would like to get ideas from people how to resolve or speed-up the query?
    Any idea how to use sub-factoring for the above scenario? Or others method (creating view or materialized view are not an option).
    Thank you.
    Shaun S.

    Hi Shaun
    Okay, I have a million questions (could you tell me if both tables are from the same remote source, it looks like they're possibly not?), but let's just try some things first.
    By now you should understand the idea of what I termed 'sub-factoring' in a previous post. This is to do with using the WITH blah AS (SELECT... syntax. Now in most circumstances this 'materialises' the results of the inner select statement. This means that we 'get' the results then do something with them afterwards. It's a handy trick when dealing with remote sites as sometimes you want the remote database to do the work. The reason that I ask you to use the MATERIALIZE hint for testing is just to force this, in 99.99% of cases this can be removed later. Using the WITH statement is also handled differently to inline view like SELECT * FROM (SELECT... but the same result can be mimicked with a NO_MERGE hint.
    Looking at your case I would be interested to see what the explain plan and results would be for something like the following two statements (sorry - you're going have to check them, it's late!)
    WITH a AS
    (SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
    FROM table_one),
    b AS
    (SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
    FROM table_two),
    sourceqry AS
    (SELECT  b.col3 x
           , a.col1 y
           , a.col2 z
    FROM table_one a
        , table_two b
    WHERE a.col3 = 12345
    AND   a.col4 = 100
    AND   b.col5 = a.col5)
    SELECT apex_item.checkbox(1,x), y , z
    FROM sourceqry
    WITH a AS
    (SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
    FROM table_one),
    b AS
    (SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
    FROM table_two)
    SELECT  apex_item.checkbox(1,x), y , z
    FROM table_one a
        , table_two b
    WHERE a.col3 = 12345
    AND   a.col4 = 100
    AND   b.col5 = a.col5If the remote tables are at the same site, then you should have the same results. If they aren't you should get the same results but different to the original query.
    We aren't being told the real cardinality of the inners select here so the explain plan is distorted (this is normal for queries on remote and especially non-oracle sites). This hinders tuning normally but I don't think this is your problem at all. How many distinct values do you normally get of the column aliased 'x' and how many rows are normally returned in total? Also how are you testing response times, in APEX, SQL Developer, Toad SQLplus etc?
    Sorry for all the questions but it helps to answer the question, if I can.
    Cheers
