Frequent loss of connection with HH5

I upgraded to infinity and got a HH5 a few weeks ago. Initially it was great, stable and down load up to 26 Mbps. Now, I lose the connection several times each day and this evening it dropped the connection about 4 times in an hour. The speed now is down to 9 Mbps. Any ideas on what is wrong or what I can do?

Thank you for your comments.
Speed is not the problem, now up to 18000 in any case. It is loss of connection. I don't understand computers so not sure what information you requested. Here is most recent event log details if that would help.

Methods to detect loss of connection with CRIO

I am developing an application with CRIO. The CRIO has an application in real time in which you are sharing a variable temperature. In my host PC I have an application that will receive this temperature and stored in a database. I need to detect the beginning of my program if present the CRIO and prompting a loss of connection and the system can not initialize.

This is the cRIO code. All it does is continuously update a variable that can be read by the HMI. It is important that this loop runs faster than the HMI loop to prevent false alarms.
The HMI code may look something like this. It is reading the variable being written to by the cRIO. If it does not change, the communication code is not running. You would probably want to do something if Comm's Lost goes true other than turn on an indicator.
There are many ways to do this and you may receive some better ideas from the forum.

Loss of connection with Belkin router

I have been using a Belkin N450DB router with my Westell modem for over 2 months. Everything was fine until 4 days ago when my router lost connection. I have tried the self heal with the router and the troubleshooting with the modem. I currently have internet with just the modem hooked up but have lost connection 3-4 times this way over the past 4 days. I have no connection with the router connected now. It says wire unplugged. I was thinking it was the router but have found out another DSL customer in my town has the exact same issue and he has a different router. Did Verison reset some security programs that won't allow my router to connect or is Verison DSL having issues we are not aware of in Greenwood, DE? It is just strange that two residences are experiencing the same issues in different areas.

Frequent loss of connection to email server

Every few days, although not following any obvious useage pattern, one of my email accounts stops being able to connect to the mail server. To fix this, I have to delete the account, and then recreate it. I've tried every other suggestion or fix described in these pages and elsewhere - nothing but a delete and recreate works, and it's only temporary.
This is a fairly simple fix - however it is intensely irritating that I have to keep doing it. When the error occurs, I can still access the account via webmail, and can still receive and send from my PC to that account. So it's not the Mail Server being offline etc, just can't connect from my iPhone 5.
My other email accounts on the iPhone continue to function normally, so the Mail app is working.
A search of this community shows many different versions of this issue, which has persisted across iOS6 and 7 upgrades on the handset.
In short, I know how to resolve the problem - I really want to know why it occurs, and why I keep having to resolve it every week or so. I want to fix the problem once and for all.
If it helps, it's always the same mail account, which is an IMAP one (as are my other ones).
Any suggestions gratefully received! How do I raise a bug report with Apple, for example?
Thanks all...

A quick Google search does not yield anything. I have to assume in general Apple uses industry standard protocols (and they use the sticklers for using the actual protocol). Everytime I have had problems with wifi and Apple equipment (including the iPad) the solution was that the wifi router (or the servers handling the traffic) were found to need replacement (or re-programming). And this was not due to Apple. My latest issue was the hotel in Singapore. Both my PC laptop and iPad could not find the wifi signal even though the router was in the room. At first we went around rebooting and unplugging everything. Once past that silly step they agreed my equipment was fine but their server pay-wall was an issue (the hotel manager's iphone could not see the wifi either).
So probably an issue with the Cruise ship wifi routers, or their pay-wall servers to follow your computer (to be sure you have paid for your service).
Often the users equipment is blamed and Apple products in particular. But I suspect the majority of the time it is the wifi equipment.

Loss of connection with Broadband from modem/hub.

Hi guys,
Just had BT Infinity installed last Friday and within an hour of the engineer leaving, the blue broadband light on the HH3 turned to Red. After going through all the troubleshooting you get from the page that displays when you try and access the Internet, I couldn't find anything wrong, tried restarting the HH3 and turning it off and on again with no resolution.
I then decided to power off the white openreach modem even though the DSL light was still lit and green and hey presto, after this restarted and I restarted the hub again, it came back on.
The problem is that since then, I am losing the connection in exactly the same way every few hours. Sometimes in the space of a few minutes and this is highly frustrating when the hub is downstairs and my PC is upstairs and I have to keep going up and down to reset it. Using Hub manager to restart the hub has no effect as I need to restart the modem as well.
The engineer did say that the speed will go up and down over the next 10 days and you may lose connection for a few minutes but the connection never comes back on again. Yesterday morning I noticed it had disconnected so left it all day while at work and still no connection when I came home.
Now being a Windows Network administrator, it seems to me that there is an issue with the hardware somewhere and I would think that the issue would be with the modem as this has to be restarted in order for the connection to come back on again.
Has anyone else had this same issue? I had the old BT Home hub before on regular broadband and had no issues whatsover. A colleague of mine said his father had the same issue and they had to replace his modem and hub because the engineer told him the hardware is rubbish and it kept burning out.
I don't want to have to spend more money getting a decent router, why should I? BT should provide hardware that works and is of good quality.
Can anyone else comment on this or can any mods get involved please? I'm starting to regret getting this after only 5 days!
Many thanks
John
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi John,
I've been going through exactly the same thing as you for the last 2-3 months. My first few weeks on Infinity were fine actually, then Homehub started dropping connection to the broadband a few times a day, now it's every 10-15 minutes. It's been ongoing for a couple of months now and last week I received a replacement Homehub after contacting one of the mods here. No change, in fact if anything it's worse. It's entirely useless to me to be honest, I can't watch anything online, play any games online and to work from home I have to use a 3G dongle (it's slow, but at least it stays on for longer than 15 minute intervals).
Anyway, needless-to-say my BT Infinity experience has been terrible so far. I've seen a few posts on here from people who have had what has sounded like a similar problem and they have swapped out the Homehub for a 3rd party router and have found it to solve the problem completely. It's something I have considered, but until BT actually admit to me that the cause of the problem is their crappy hardware then I'm not going to risk spending the money.
The mod that contacted me did mention that if the replacement hub doesn't fix the problem (it hasn't) then it might be an issue with the PPP session/RAS server and that he'd report the fault to BT Wholesale for me if that is the case. I e-mailed him this morning asking him to do so.
Good luck!

Loss of connection with storage

Hi,
I have 3 IBM server hosts (Server 2012) and 2 ds3500 SANs connected through fiber channel through a switch. The VMs and SANS are clustered. The MPIO setting is Active/Optimized and Standby for the controllers (seems to be required for the ds3500). The last
two times the hosts rebooted (during Cluster Aware Updating) the Active/Optimized and Standby settings got reversed for some of the CSVs and connection was lost. That caused some of the VMs to fail. (No failover.) I had to go into Disk Management on all the
hosts and reset the Active/Optimized and Standby paths, then restart the VMs. Anyone have any idea why the MPIO settings are not sticking? Thanks.

A few notes:
This seems to be a vendor provided MPIO - not the Microsoft MPIO. If so, then it's best suited for a discussion with vendor support.
Do you have a quorum disk for your cluster? If not, I recommend adding a quorum disk regardless of the number of hosts. I'm assuming default quorum configuration.
Also, consider upgrading to 2012 R2. There has been significant improvements with storage and clustering.

Loss of connection with Plex app

Thought I'd bring up this problem here, although it may not be a NAS problem. After I turned on the "Power Schedule" to turn off the NAS at night, the next morning I had no access to Plex. A reset did not help getting access either. The only way I could get it back was to do a complete shutdown, wait 15 minutes, and then back on. I have since turned off the "Power schedule" and I didn't lose access. I also have the "Squeeze center " app running and it appears to resume OK. So, at this point there could be something configured wrong in the Plexapp, somehow the Sqeezecenter app is blocking Plex, or the NAS is not restarting all processes after a resume.

Hi and welcome to the WD community
When you have the power Schedule on and reboot the drive does Plex work or must the drive shutdown in order to work properly?

Loss of wireless connection with 350n

I am having a terrible time with loss of connection with my 350 N wireless router. The router itself is on top of a bookshelf less than 50 feet away from both of my wireless desktops, and faces straight down the hallway that both rooms the computers are in open from. Often when I start up my computer it refuses to acknowledge that there is a wireless network present in the house and the only way I can make it detect it is if I powercyle the router--which is a pain. Even sitting directly next to the router it will never recognize better than 85% signal strength. And when I load (not play, just initiate loading) download-heavy content such as streaming video or an MMORPG program the connection will often drop and then reconnect seconds later. Upon performing a speed test it unfailingly indicates that my upstream is twice as fast as my downstream, which reads at only around 1165 Mbps--which is absurd as my modem is provisioned for and often surpasses 16000Mbps. What on earth is going on and what can I do to overcome it? I'm getting desperate here.

I have fixed my problem by upgrading the router firmware to version 1.03.7 from version 1.03.5.
The issue I had upgrading the router was it would fail at about 80% when using the router to do the upgrade soooooo, this is how I did it ( stolen from another thread )
Be warned! If you do the below and you have custom setting on the router you need to write those setting down first!!!!!!
1. Download tftp.exe using this link (ftp://ftp.linksys.com/pub/network/tftp.exe)
2. Download the new firmware (version 1.03.7) at Linksys download site
3. Reset your router by pushing and holding the reset button in the rear for 30sec
4. Configure a static IP address (192.168.1.50 with Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0) on YOUR PC
5. Connect a network cable from your PC to your router
6. Test that your PC is talking to the router by openning a DOS window and type "ping 192.168.1.1" (without the paranthesis) and you should get 3 replies.
7. Double click on the tftp.exe
8. Type in the IP Address for the Server: 192.168.1.1
9. Password is "password" (WITHOUT the paranthesis)
10. For the BIN file, click on the square-button and browse to the BIN file that you've downloaded from the LinkSys Site (WRT350N_1.03.7_US_code.bin)
11. Click on Upgrade
12. After the upgrade is successful, perform the reset, again. IMPORTANT!!!! PUSH AND HOLD THE RESET BUTTON FOR 30sec then let go.
13. POWER light should be blinking during boot up then stay SOLID
14. Now, change YOUR PC IP seeting back to what they were before you started this process.
15. Start InternetExploder and surf the net
16. GOODLUCK!!!
As soon as I did this, my laptop wireless started working 100% and right away.

My two iMacs frequently go offline when I have our iPad and two iPhones-5 connected with Airport Express (2nd edition). If I disable WiFi on my three "i" devices no problem. Any thoughts on this?

.....doesn't that seems to suggest the modem?
That is what I have suggested....twice now. From posts above:
My opinion would be that it is likely not the ISP, unless you have complete loss of Internet service for all devices at the same time......it is the Comtrend device....
and
I believe that the problem lies with the modem, and not the ISP signal.
Your ISP will likely have a different opinion, though. Please keep us posted on your progress.

What are possible causes for frequent loss of wireless mouse connectivity other than the batteries ?

What are possible causes for frequent loss of wireless mouse connectivity other than the batteries ?

Wi-Fi or another interference source. Try turning off the Wi-Fi and see if the problems continue. If that solves the problem, see if you can set your Wi-Fi to run in the 5 GHz range.

Frequent loss of internet connection has me stumped ideas anyone???

I have an almost new 24" Imac and I have been having connection issues recently with Comcast and I am going, no wait am insane. I had a Belkin router that was going flaky and got a new one but it was worse than the old one and after trying no router for a week and no lost connections I bought a Linksys and it was great for about 3 weeks and then suddenly loss of connection again. I used to have both a G4 QS733 and also an Intel Mini that had similar problems, the Mini was so bad in fact I ended up exchanging and selling the new on Ebay without even opening it up. I have replaced EVERYTHING in the past year startiing at the pole every cable and ethernet cable as well as the modem and the router (3x on that) and the computer has been changed out. I noticed when this happens my pc is still able to connect which makes it even worse because it all leads back to the apple being the problem. I noticed the problem returned a few days ago and I think it was right after a bunch of updates ( I currently am running 10.4.10) so maybe that is the problem??? Just seems weird to have a total of 8, yes 8 macs have the exact same problem but I have had about 40 different pc based laptops hooked to the same connection at various times and NONE had a problem. I get the feeling this is a simple incompatibilty issue between the Apple and the routers but I am out of ideas.

Hi Tim Hartzell!
I may be off-base here, and my apologies if so, but I have a feeling you're having exactly the same connection issue with each of your Macs, not because they are not compatible, because they are in fact compatible, but due to misunderstanding how to perform one particular step of the initial setup of the Mac. This comment is not meant to slight you, as at one point I did EXACTLY the same thing and had the same results (I once used Comcast), and that's why I'm answering your question.
This isn't unusual if during setup of a Mac (the Welcome! procedure/program) you incorrectly identify and answer the question at the top of one particular page in the setup process:
"How Do You Connect to the Internet?"
Recall that one?
The question means how does your Mac connect - not how does your network connect. Therefore, if you are connected to Comcast via a cable modem, then have a router wired to it, and your Mac wired to the router with an ethernet cable, the answer should be:
"I connect to my local area network (LAN)."
You should NOT answer: "I use a cable modem to connect to the Internet."
If your ever change your Mac's connection back so that it is no longer connected to your network, but is instead connected directly to the cable modem, you'll find the same issue in reverse, and you'll have to reconfigure by answering with: "I use a cable modem to connect to the Internet."
The good news is that there's an easy fix, and you don't have to dig out the Install Discs and re-install your OS to fix your problem, nor do you reconfigure all your settings each time you change your connection method. Simply:
Open System Preferences, open the Network panel, click on the "Assist me..." button at the bottom of the panel, followed by clicking the blue "Assistant..." button in the drop-down box. [Do NOT click the "Diagnostics..." button.]
"Network Setup Assistant" will open while System Preferences will remain open behind it. On the "Introduction" pane, for convenience enter "ethernet to router" in the "Location Name:" box and click the "Continue" button. On the "How Do You Connect to the Internet?" pane, activate (by clicking) the radio button left of "I connect to my local area network (LAN)." and then click the "Continue" button.
Read and proceed. After configuration is completed you will see in bold at the top "Congratulations! You Are Connected." Click the "Done" button and Network Setup Assistant will close and quit. There should be a message box in front of System Preferences stating that "Your network settings have been changed by another application." That's as it should be, since you just used another app to make those changes, so click "OK" and close.
Finally, change the "Show:" selector to "Network Port Configurations" and select (highlight) the line "Built-in Ethernet" and simply use the mouse to drag the entire line to the top of the list. If you use wireless to connect to a printer, move "AirPort" into second position on the list, and follow by clicking the "Apply Now" button at bottom right.
The above will change none of the previous settings in other configurations that are maintained in the Network panel of System Preferences. The name of each of those different configurations is displayed in the "Location:" selector for you to choose how you wish to be connected. You should now see on that selector the name you earlier gave this new configuration - "ethernet to router"
While it may appear to be confusing, you'll notice that after you switch from one configuration name to another and have clicked the "Apply Now" button - the settings that you will see on each pane will be the ones that are appropriate for that configuration. That means that if you want to connect directly to your cable modem again, bypassing your router and your network, you'll need to change the "Location:" selector back from "ethernet to router" to whatever the current setting is called, followed by clicking the "Apply Now" button.
Once you have a working configuration, be careful not to edit any of its particular settings followed by clicking the "Apply Now" button, as that will alter the configuration so that it may no longer work.
Rather than haphazardly editing a working configuration, it's less confusing to simply initiate an entirely new configuration, as you've just done above. If that would then continue to work better for you, say for a month or so, then the prior configuration, and other old configurations, may no longer be necessary, and can be deleted from the "Location:" selector.

My MacBook Pro (new 13") losses connection with Time Capsule.

My new Pro 13" will lose connection with Time Capsule every day. I also back up a MacBook Air (about 1 year old) that maintains connection. If I reboot Time Capsule the Pro will connect and backup to it but will lose the connection the next day. Does anyone have any idea how to address this?

You may want to take your question to the Time Capsule forum - while all of us here use MacBook Pros, the real Time Capsule experts hang out on that forum.
Good luck,

"Lost Connection with AIM" repeatedly

Hi there,
I'm using a new Linksys WRT54GL router with the DD-WRT v23 firmware -- which is otherwise fabulous, by the way -- but since going with the router iChat has been pretty unreliable. I can't connect to my sister in England (I'm in Canada): we keep getting "insufficient bandwidth" errors (I'm on a very hi-speed cable internet connection, so I don't think it's me!). Moreover, AIM frequently kicks me off iChat with the message "Lost connection with AIM".
I've configured my router using instructions linked from this forum. I'm forwarding the following ports to my computer:
5060
5190
5220
5222
5678
16384
And while I can connect to other users okay (except my sister, it seems), staying connected it a real issue. Can anyone recommend a fix?
Thanks,
Aaron.
PowerBook G4 15-inch 1.67 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.5) The last PowerBook ever!

Hi Aaron,
This last port should be a group of 20 ports (16384-16403)
iChat needs 4 ports from this group to do 1-1 Audio or Video chats.
Many Linksys have UPnP. It is found in the Administration tab. If you have this you could use this. Disable the Port Forwarding if you do.
Also port Forwwarding points to one IP/computer. If this is the case for you and you still have the device doing DHCP there is a cance you computer's IP has changed if it goes to sleep or is shut down when the lease time runs out.
Check this on your computer and the Port Forwarding settings.

'Disk Utility has lost connection with Disk Management Tool' w/ RAID 10 set

Using 4 internal drives, I have specified the following setup for each:
2 partitions, 1 'speed' of 5 GB and 1 'data' of whatever remains.
The 4 speed partitions stripe to a single RAID volume correctly.
The 4 data partitions are used to make a RAID 10 volume as follows:
The first 2 data partitions are mirrored to make a 'data-A'
The next 2 data partitions are mirrored to make a 'data-B'
These complete correctly.
Upon attempting to strip data-A and data-B in order to finish the RAID 10 setup, Disk Utility quits with the following message:
"Disk Utility has lost connection with the Disk Management Tool and cannot continue. Please quit and relaunch Disk Utility'.
A search here and on the nets reveals only that this message appeared in 10.3.x when attempting to repair disk permissions and had to do with a rogue iTunes support file. This is occurring on a blank system (no iTunes installed) so I don't think its the same cause.
Note that I was able to complete this setup under Tiger several times without issue, so it seems to be unique to Leopard. Does anyone know what is going on and hopefully suggest a workaround?

To answer my own issue and leave a marker here for others, I was able to successfully set up a RAID 10 partition using diskutil, indicating that the problem is Disk Utility itself and not the RAID implementation.
Disk Utility has proven itself to be bugridden (must restart frequently to get updated view of volumes; drops device names at various times; etc.) and this latest bug would seem to suggest that it should be avoided in favor of diskutil for any serious RAID construction.

How to connect with sony bravia.

Hi,
I'm trying to connect my Mac pro with my Sony Bravia LCD TV. I bought a MiniDP to VGA cable and I already had a VGA extension to connect with my TV. I used to use that cable to connect my other laptop and worked ok with frequent "no synchronisation". Once I connected all, nothing happened. I restarted the PC but nothing happened. I tried to play around with all connection, but nothing happened. I do use windows XP in my mac pro as well and it didnt work their either although my other PC working fine with same VGA cable. I'm not very sure my MiniDP to VGA cable is working or not? Is there anyway I can check its working. Also, someone (sorry forgot the name) in the forum said, HDMI works better then VGA. What do I have to do to connect my PC through HDMI. Is there any direct cable to connect MiniDP and HDMI? Thanks for your help.

The best way to test if the VGA adapter is bad or not is to try it with another display, preferably a computer monitor instead of a TV. If it doesn't work with a monitor, then that's stronger evidence the adapter is bad.
There are MiniDP to HDMI adapters. Here's an example of one. I believe this company will ship internationally. You might be able to find UK sources for similar adapters.
