FREEZE & RESTORE REQUESTS SEVERAL TIMES A DAY!

After updating my 3G to version 4.2.1 my iPhone keeps requesting me to restore it for several times a day!! (Windows XP).
I've tried everything: uninstall all Aplle software, install a fresh iTunes.
And all the restores I performed  last week were useless. It keeps freezing and requesting a new restore!!
Has anyone experienced (and solved) this unconvenience?
Thanks

gdgmacguyThanks for your prompt reply, but have also tried this with no avail... :-(

  • My Macbook Pro keeps freezing and crashing, several times a day

    Since I got my computer, it has been freezing. The little pinwheel will come up and nothing will work. It used to go away and my computer was usable again, and now I have to force shut my computer down by holding the power button down and turning it back on. Lately, it will shut down by itself too with no warning, and will 'turn off' twice and then after the second one, a gray folder will pop up with a question mark and I have to hold the power button down again. It is ridiculous. It doesn't matter what programs I use; internet--I used to use Safari but then I switched to Chrome hoping that would help and it reduced it to five a day MINIMUM to three a day or so, but now it's just as high as before--, Word, iPhoto, iTunes, Skype, just having the computer on in general. It doesn't matter. I am losing my homework, and I can't afford to lose papers from Word because my computer decides to freeze randomly. I called and they said to hit F3 and to switch desktops when that happens and close out the non-responding program there, but I can't do that, because it's the computer itself, and it never lets me switch desktops. Absolutely nothing works on the computer at all.
    I went to Apple and they ran two scans on their computer, I don't know which ones, and they both came back and said nothing was wrong with the laptop, but something CLEARLY is. This isn't normal. I didn't pay almost 2,000 for a computer to never be able to actually use it because I have to turn it off every few minutes. So far today, and today alone, it is happened SEVEN times. And I've only used it five times today, for a period of about an hour each.
    It did this before I got the new update for Yosemite and whatever was before that. I've had this since mid to late August of this year. It does it just as much as before I updated, probably more now.
    I am at my absolute wits end. I need help, and nobody knows what to do for this. Has anyone had this problem and been able to fix it?

    Three beeps indicate a RAM problem. Is this the original RAM or have you upgraded it? The fact that this seems to happen when you move it sounds like the RAM might not be seated correctly or maybe the contacts are dirty. If you're comfortable doing it, you can remove the RAM modules and clean the contacts with an eraser. Try one module in the machine at a time. If one is bad, that will help you isolate which one.

  • Mountain Lion freezes my iMac several times a day, whats the problem?

    and i do so whith what ever program I´m working with, Safari, Firefox, Adobe Illustrator or InDesign CS6, Mail, and so on …
    is ther a bug in Mountain Lion 10.8.2?

    Make sure your system is up to date with all available Software Updates since this problem was supposed to have been fixed some months ago, but I understand it remains for some users.
    Assuming everything is up to date, try this: Using the Finder's Go > Go to Folder... menu, open the following folder
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
    Drag these three files to the Desktop:
    com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
    com.apple.network.identification.plist
    preferences.plist
    This will only make copies of them. If they still exist in the folder, select each of them and then drag them to the Trash. You will need to authenticate with your Administrator name and password.
    Restart your Mac and log in again. Your wireless network will not be selected automatically, so select it from the Wi-Fi menu. The three Preference files above will be replaced with new ones.
    Use the Mac and determine if this made any difference. If you think it's fixed, you can drag the three files from the Desktop to the Trash. If not, you can always drag them back to the original folder. You will have to authenticate again, and your previous network preferences will be restored.

  • After iOS 7 download have to do "hard resets" several times a day...phone freezes and shuts off

    After ios7 I have to do "hard resets" several times a day. Phone freezes and shuts off.

    Hello Hockey2013,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Usually for an iPhone that is doing this I would recommend resetting the device, but you do that already. Next I would have to recommend backing up to iTunes, then restoring the device.
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    After you restore the device I would set it up as new and use it for a bit to see if the issue persists. If it does not, restore from your backup and then test it for a bit again to verify that it works.
    Regards,
    Sterling

  • IMac Freezing Several Times a Day

    My iMac is freezing several times a day. It started out just when I went to wake it from sleep in the morning, but now it is more often.  I read about similar issues on the discussion boards and have taken the following actions:  I have gone into Disk Utility and run "Verify Disk" and received "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be ok."  I also used the Activity Monitor to check CPU activity, RAM availability, Hard Disk availability, etc. and everything seems fine there (57.4 GB open).  However, when I checked Console Messages, there have been none since 1/16 at 4:37pm.  It has been over a month since the freezing issue has been going on (& becoming more frequent) so I wonder if there is a relation/cause there?  Any help welcome -- thanks!

    Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
    How much RAM & free Disk space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
    Open console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last problem  & the Startup right after that for clues.
    In the Memory tab of Activity Monitor, are there a lot of Pageouts?

  • My MBP "13 freezes several times a day

    My MBP "13 freezes several times a day. Suddenly the spinning ball apears fro 2-3 minutes,  then disappear for 30 secs and re-appearing for 2 minutes. There seam to be no pattern in which software is  running at the time this occours. I have just installed new RAM and I have 150 gig available on my 500 gig HDD.
    Anyone?
    G:-)

    Hey,
    My advise would be to open Activity monitor, look at what takes up the most threads while you're working normally. See if there are any background apps causing overloads, also look at how much of the RAM is being addressed in the system memory tab.
    Alternatively if you find that very little of the computers CPU is being used and in this case i would advise verifying and repairing your disk permissions through Disk Utility
    Finally if this doesn't fix your issue, you may be looking at a software issue. Are you running 10.8? Upgrading may address and fix your issue.
    350GB is still a fair amount of information for the computer to process. You can also move your non immediate date onto an external harddrive to save internal space. Things like iphoto library, itunes library, films and
    i agree with clintonfrombirmingham it could be signs of a failing harddrive. Make a backup and see Apple.

  • Firefox freezes several times a day on my Imac so that I have to close it by force quit.

    I have used several versions of firefox and each one freezes several times each day on my Imac. The only add on I use is the Ebay sidebar. When Firefox freezes the only answer is to "force Quit".
    I do not have this problem with any other search engine (safari, opera,chrome).

  • Upgraded to Lion, my iMac early 2009 freeze several times a day

    Hi all,
    Since my upgrade to Lion (1.6.8 -> 1.7.3 and now 1.7.4), my iMac 2009 freeze several times a day.
    the screen (wallpaper and windows) change of color ... i saw some artifacts and ... a moment, my mouse stops to move, my only way is to reboot my iMac.
    before my upgrade, my iMac ran a week without a reboot .. :-!

    In addition to having adequate RAM did you repair disk permissions after the updates? If not then please run Disk Utility (Applications - Utilities - Disk Utility) and run Repair Disk Permissions, I would recommend doing so 2x. If you see messages, you can normally disregard them per Apple's Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions messages that you can safely ignore advice letter.

  • My iMac running 10.10.2 keeps crashing several times a day. It does a automatic restart and gives me a option to send in a report. Any ideas what might be causing this?

    My iMac does an automatic restart several times a day. It gives me a option to send in a "panic" report. This happens randomly during the day and night. Any idea of anything new that might be causing this? I am up to date on all applications.

    Mac users often ask whether they should install "anti-virus" (AV) software. The usual answer is "no." That answer is right, but it may give the wrong impression that there is no threat from what are loosely called "viruses." There is a threat, and you need to educate yourself about it.
    1. This is a comment on what you should—and should not—do to protect yourself from malicious software ("malware") that circulates on the Internet and gets onto a computer as an unintended consequence of the user's actions.
    It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the computer, or who has been able to take control of it remotely. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. AV software is not intended to, and does not, defend against such attacks.
    The comment is long because the issue is complex. The key points are in sections 5, 6, and 10.
    OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
    2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user. Internally Apple calls it "XProtect."
    The malware recognition database used by XProtect is automatically updated; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
    The following caveats apply to XProtect:
    ☞ It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
    ☞ It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
    As new versions of OS X are released, it's not clear whether Apple will indefinitely continue to maintain the XProtect database of older versions such as 10.6. The security of obsolete system versions may eventually be degraded. Security updates to the code of obsolete systems will stop being released at some point, and that may leave them open to other kinds of attack besides malware.
    3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't been checked for security by Apple unless it comes from the App Store, but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. That may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below.)
    Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
    ☞ It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
    ☞ A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could simply ignore the consequences of distributing codesigned malware.
    ☞ An App Store developer could find a way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail due to human error.
    Apple has taken far too long to revoke the codesigning certificates of some known abusers, thereby diluting the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. Those lapses don't involve App Store products, however.
    For the reasons given, App Store products, and—to a lesser extent—other applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, are safer than others, but they can't be considered absolutely safe. "Sandboxed" applications may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think before granting that access. Sandbox security is based on user input. Never click through any request for authorization without thinking.
    4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against unknown ones. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.
    5. The built-in security features of OS X reduce the risk of malware attack, but they are not, and never will be, complete protection. Malware is a problem of human behavior, not machine behavior, and no technological fix alone is going to solve it. Trusting software to protect you will only make you more vulnerable.
    The best defense is always going to be your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "Trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and Internet criminals. If you're better informed than they think you are, you'll win. That means, in practice, that you always stay within a safe harbor of computing practices. How do you know when you're leaving the safe harbor? Below are some warning signs of danger.
    Software from an untrustworthy source
    ☞ Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, doesn't come directly from the developer’s website. Do not trust an alert from any website to update Flash, or your browser, or any other software. A genuine alert that Flash is outdated and blocked is shown on this support page. Follow the instructions on the support page in that case. Otherwise, assume that the alert is fake and someone is trying to scam you into installing malware. If you see such alerts on more than one website, ask for instructions.
    ☞ Software of any kind is distributed via BitTorrent, or Usenet, or on a website that also distributes pirated music or movies.
    ☞ Rogue websites such as Softonic, Soft32, and CNET Download distribute free applications that have been packaged in a superfluous "installer."
    ☞ The software is advertised by means of spam or intrusive web ads. Any ad, on any site, that includes a direct link to a download should be ignored.
    Software that is plainly illegal or does something illegal
    ☞ High-priced commercial software such as Photoshop is "cracked" or "free."
    ☞ An application helps you to infringe copyright, for instance by circumventing the copy protection on commercial software, or saving streamed media for reuse without permission. All "YouTube downloaders" are in this category, though not all are necessarily malicious.
    Conditional or unsolicited offers from strangers
    ☞ A telephone caller or a web page tells you that you have a “virus” and offers to help you remove it. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
    ☞ A web site offers free content such as video or music, but to use it you must install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "downloader," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one.
    ☞ You win a prize in a contest you never entered.
    ☞ Someone on a message board such as this one is eager to help you, but only if you download an application of his choosing.
    ☞ A "FREE WI-FI !!!" network advertises itself in a public place such as an airport, but is not provided by the management.
    ☞ Anything online that you would expect to pay for is "free."
    Unexpected events
    ☞ A file is downloaded automatically when you visit a web page, with no other action on your part. Delete any such file without opening it.
    ☞ You open what you think is a document and get an alert that it's "an application downloaded from the Internet." Click Cancel and delete the file. Even if you don't get the alert, you should still delete any file that isn't what you expected it to be.
    ☞ An application does something you don't expect, such as asking for permission to access your contacts, your location, or the Internet for no obvious reason.
    ☞ Software is attached to email that you didn't request, even if it comes (or seems to come) from someone you trust.
    I don't say that leaving the safe harbor just once will necessarily result in disaster, but making a habit of it will weaken your defenses against malware attack. Any of the above scenarios should, at the very least, make you uncomfortable.
    6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
    Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
    Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it—not JavaScript—in your browsers.
    Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a padlock icon in the address bar when visiting a secure site.
    Stay within the safe harbor, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself.
    7. Never install any commercial AV or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they are all worse than useless. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use one of the free security apps in the Mac App Store—nothing else.
    Why shouldn't you use commercial AV products?
    ☞ To recognize malware, the software depends on a database of known threats, which is always at least a day out of date. This technique is a proven failure, as a major AV software vendor has admitted. Most attacks are "zero-day"—that is, previously unknown. Recognition-based AV does not defend against such attacks, and the enterprise IT industry is coming to the realization that traditional AV software is worthless.
    ☞ Its design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere. In order to meet that nonexistent threat, commercial AV software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
    ☞ By modifying the operating system, the software may also create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
    ☞ Most importantly, a false sense of security is dangerous.
    8. An AV product from the App Store, such as "ClamXav," has the same drawback as the commercial suites of being always out of date, but it does not inject low-level code into the operating system. That doesn't mean it's entirely harmless. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
    An AV app is not needed, and cannot be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful, if at all, only for detecting Windows malware, and even for that use it's not really effective, because new Windows malware is emerging much faster than OS X malware.
    Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else. A malicious attachment in email is usually easy to recognize by the name alone. An actual example:
    London Terror Moovie.avi [124 spaces] Checked By Norton Antivirus.exe
    You don't need software to tell you that's a Windows trojan. Software may be able to tell you which trojan it is, but who cares? In practice, there's no reason to use recognition software unless an organizational policy requires it. Windows malware is so widespread that you should assume it's in every email attachment until proven otherwise. Nevertheless, ClamXav or a similar product from the App Store may serve a purpose if it satisfies an ill-informed network administrator who says you must run some kind of AV application. It's free and it won't handicap the system.
    The ClamXav developer won't try to "upsell" you to a paid version of the product. Other developers may do that. Don't be upsold. For one thing, you should not pay to protect Windows users from the consequences of their choice of computing platform. For another, a paid upgrade from a free app will probably have all the disadvantages mentioned in section 7.
    9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.
    10. As a Mac user, you don't have to live in fear that your computer may be infected every time you install software, read email, or visit a web page. But neither can you assume that you will always be safe from exploitation, no matter what you do. Navigating the Internet is like walking the streets of a big city. It can be as safe or as dangerous as you choose to make it. The greatest harm done by security software is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They may then feel safe enough to take risks from which the software doesn't protect them. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.

  • My ipod touch 4g audio and video is totally not working. Updated the ipod with the latest version and also tried to restore it several times and that didnot work. Sound system is totally not working. plzzzz help..

    My ipod touch stopped playing videos and music for the past three days rest all are working fine.
    I doubt the sound system is gone. i tried restoring it several times. I havent mishandled it. Few days back there was audio distortion and slowness so i upgraded to the iOS 5 but the audio/ video doesnt work.  Alerts ,sounds ... donot work..Please help me out...

    Try a restore to factory defaults/new iPod.  If still problem then you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • 1.1.2 causes my classic to crash several times a day

    I updated my classic to the latest firmware (1.1.2) and, for the first time in the history of my iPod usage, it has started crashing suddenly several times a day. It always crashes when selecting a new song, podcast, video, or audiobook, never during playback or other menu navigation (although maybe once or twice when navigating to a "leaf" menu in the menu tree). This is infuriating because it causes me to lose my place in the audiobooks and podcasts I have listened to since last crash. Is this a known issue? I haven't seen it discussed in the forums.
    So, although I do notice some minor performance improvements in 1.1.2, I will be attempting a downgrade to 1.1.1 shortly. I just need the 8+ hours free to wait for my 120 gigs of content to load after a restore.

    Before reverting back to 1.1.1 see if another update to 1.1.2 works after a restore. It may have been a glitch with the update. It's worth a shot.

  • My iMac loses connection to my AirPort several times a day.

    My iMac loses connection to my AirPort several times a day, and I have to manually select the AirPort each time.  My other devices (laptops, iPads, iPhone) never lose connectivity to the AirPort - just the iMac.  What is going on?  It is just inconvenient to take the extra steps to reconnect my Wi-Fi every time I want to use my iMac.

    Make sure your system is up to date with all available Software Updates since this problem was supposed to have been fixed some months ago, but I understand it remains for some users.
    Assuming everything is up to date, try this: Using the Finder's Go > Go to Folder... menu, open the following folder
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
    Drag these three files to the Desktop:
    com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
    com.apple.network.identification.plist
    preferences.plist
    This will only make copies of them. If they still exist in the folder, select each of them and then drag them to the Trash. You will need to authenticate with your Administrator name and password.
    Restart your Mac and log in again. Your wireless network will not be selected automatically, so select it from the Wi-Fi menu. The three Preference files above will be replaced with new ones.
    Use the Mac and determine if this made any difference. If you think it's fixed, you can drag the three files from the Desktop to the Trash. If not, you can always drag them back to the original folder. You will have to authenticate again, and your previous network preferences will be restored.

  • Several times a day my HP Laptop disconnects and reconnects to my WRT600N router.

    I’ve installed a new WRT600N.  (Firmware Version: 1.01.35 build 5_20080115).
    My install was a “Linksys EasyLink Advisor” guided and is generic.  SPI Firewall Protection is enabled.  Security Mode is enabled for WPA-Personal.
    The laptop I use with router is an HP/Compaq 6710b (also new), running XP Pro.  The built-in WiFi adapter is a “G” type (Intel PRO/Wireless 394ABG) with “Windows Wireless Network Connection” enabled.
    Presently I don’t use the “N” capability of the router.  However, I plan buy a 2nd laptop with an “N” WiFi adapter soon.
    The router works well…most of the time. Signal strength is “Very Good”.  However, several times a day my HP Laptop disconnects and reconnects to the router.
    Each time this happens I get a “Linksys EasyLink Advisor” prompt stating “Network Problem!...the connection to the router is not working”.
    After experimentation I realize that most often the connection will restore by itself…or worst case; I can re-detect and restore the connection using either the “Linksys EasyLink Advisor”  wizard OR the “Windows Wireless Network Connection” wizard.
    Besides losing the connection, the most annoying part of this is that after the connection is restored and the “Linksys EasyLink Advisor” wizard message remain indicating: “Network Problem!...the connection to the router is not working”.  
    Suggestions?

    There are many causes for poor wireless connections, and many solutions:
    First of all, give your network a unique SSID. Do not use "linksys". If you are using "linksys" you may be trying to connect to your neighbor's router. Also set "SSID Broadcast" to "enabled". This will help your computer find and lock on to your router's signal.
    Poor wireless connections are often caused by radio interference from other 2.4 GHz devices. This includes wireless phones, wireless baby monitors, microwave ovens, wireless mice and keyboards, wireless speakers, and your neighbor's wireless network. In rare cases, Bluetooth devices can interfere. Even some 5+ GHz phones also use the 2.4 Ghz band. Unplug these devices, and see if that corrects your problem.
    In your router, try a different channel. There are 11 channels in the 2.4 GHz band. Usually channel 1, 6, or 11 works best. Check out your neighbors, and see what channel they are using. Because the channels overlap one another, try to stay at least +5 or -5 channels from your strongest neighbors. For example, if you have a strong neighbor on channel 9, try any channel 1 through 4.
    Also, try to locate the router about 4 to 6 feet above the floor, in an open area. Do not locate it behind your monitor or near other computer equipment or speakers. The antenna should be vertical.
    Also, in the computer, go to your wireless software, and go to "Preferred Networks" (sometimes called "Profiles" ). There are probably a few networks listed. Delete any network named "linksys". Also delete any network that you do not recognize, or that you no longer use. If your current network is not listed, enter its info (SSID, encryption (if any), and key (if any) ). Then select your current network and make it your default network, and set it to automatic login. You may need to go to "settings" to do this, or you may need to right click on your network and select "Properties" or "settings".
    If the above does not fix your problem, download and install the latest driver for your wireless card.
    Some users have reported improved wireless performance by switching from WEP to WPA encryption.
    If you continue to have problems, try the following:
    For wireless n routers, try setting the "n Transmission Rate" to 162 Mbps, and the (wireless g) "Transmission Rate" to 54 Mbps.
    If you still have trouble, download and install the latest firmware for your router. After a firmware upgrade, you must reset the router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch. If you saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.
    Hope this helps.
