'FTTC_Consumer_Eth_Hub_2B' suddenly appeared in 'M...

I guess the title says it all. But I have 2 PCs sharing an Infinity HH 2B via Eth cables. One older one running XP-SP3 and one newer one running W7. No issues detected on either, but today the XP-SP3 machine popped up a UpNP’ detection for a new device, an 'FTTC_Consumer_Eth_Hub_2B' which it has located in 'My Network Places’.
I'm assuming the new device is the Home Hub 2B and/or the Infinity modem. Can someone confirm please?
The issues being:
1. As far as I can tell, W7 hasn't detected or reported this - should it have?
2. I've had Infinity and both the hub and modem for many months, virtually since it became available in my area, and I had a Hub 2 with 'up to' 20M from BT before that. Why has it waited many months to announce the arrival of the hub (if indeed thats what it is).
The Hub is running Software version 4.7.5.1.83.2.11.2.6 (Type B) if that helps.
If it isn't the hub, then I guess I have some searching to do. I've scanned with Spybot S&D and my AV (both updated) and all clean as expected. Just as a double check.
Thanks for any info

the ability for your computer to discover upnp devices in not activated by default on xp it apperes that it has been activated recently on win XP
i assume that it is also not turned on on win 7allthrough it may be and its just that you have never click on the page to search for them
to turn it on in win 7
start-control panel- network and sharing centre- advanced sharing settings - click the button for turn on network discovery -save changes
then to see network devices open network and sharing centre then clcik on multiple networks (the one befor internet but after your computer name) it should now search for upnp devices

  • Bridge suddenly appearing in Russian instead of English

    By opening Bridge (CS4) yesterday, it suddenly appeared in Russian, instead of English. How to change this back?

    It was my understanding that one could not change the language from the purchased edition, so like I say this is odd.
    I would reset the preferences to factory defaults and see if that gets it back to English.  To do this close Bridge and then press and hold the Ctrl key and start Bridge.  You should get a  reset window with 3 options.  Choose all 3.

  • In the midle of a song the screen gets dark, then suddenly appear the home screen of ipod and the song stops.

    i have updated my ipod 4g to ios 5.0. everything went great, but something is not right cause sometimes in the midle of a song the screen gets dark, then suddenly appear the home screen of ipod and the song stops. help-me, what should i do?

    It occurs with both ripped songs and ITMS songs, but not always the same songs. Just this morning, I had a song skip ahead, then put down the ipod for a few mintues, came back and that same song did not skip ahead at all. I've been on a stretch now of about 20 songs with no skipping whatsoever. Hmmmmmm....
    I've used all the five "R"'s multiple times to no avail. It just seems so random, it frustrates me.
    Thanks for the help, King

  • "Black Frame" suddenly appeared

    A black frame has "suddenly" appeared on my screen. It is about 1/16 in. wide, rectangular and about 3/4 the total size of my iBook screen. It will move (with my cursor), doesn't go beyond the screen dimensions and doesn't seem to affect usage other than being a nuisance. Wasn't there yesterday. Have worked with the posted "Universal Access" & "Voice Over" suggestions -- but that had no effect. I use OS-X and upgraded to version 10.4.8 which I downloaded today.
    Would appreciate any ideas on how to retire my "black frame."
    Bob

    It's ANOTHER "Universal Access" feature. Go to the "Seeing" pane and click the Zoom "Options..." button. Uncheck "Show preview rectangle when zoomed out".

    If you are using an unsecured or shared wireless network, then it could be just another user's computer name. If your sharing settings are correct, you have no worry. However, It would appear that at least some of the other user's settings are less than optimal inasmuch as his/hers is openly being displayed.
    The next time you check into a hotel and use their wireless network, you are likely to see a number of other user's computers. Some just the name, as they share no files. While others are wide open, and their file sharing is on.

  • Why does revolving gear wheel suddenly appear

    After I have been working on my iMac for a while (an hour or so), the revolving gear wheel suddenly appears exactly where it does upon startup, and I am dead in the water. No keyboard or mouse entries work. My only choice is to completely shut down the computer and start it up again. Nothing seems to be prompting the appearance of the gear wheel. When it appears, I might have one or two programs open, or as many as half a dozen. Again, this is the gear wheel, not the colored pinwheel. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

    Unusual behaviour in terms of when the centre spinning gear appears.  Suspect you may have a problem on your internal disk. 
    Ensure you have a complete backup of your internal drive if possible.
    It may help to restart in “Safe” mode.  Restart but quickly hold down the Shift key as you boot.  After you successfully boot in Safe mode, the restart again but this time just a normal boot without holding down any keys.  When you are in Safe mode not all features on your machine will function, not to worry about that; just boot in safe and then reboot normally.
    If this doesn’t work, you could use Disk Utility to examine and repair the internal disk if needed.  Start the computer from your Install DVD by holding down the ‘C’ key with the Install DVD inserted in the optical drive.  But don’t do an actual install.  Enter your language preference and then when the first install panel shows up, go to the Tools menu in the menu bar and select Disk Utility.  Click on your Macintosh HD entry and do Verify Disk Permissions and Repair Disk Permissions.  You should repeat Repair Disk Permissions a couple of times.  There will be some things found that shouldn’t be any problem, but you’ll note possibly several permissions that are repaired.
    You can also run Verify Disk and Repair Disk as well which may correct some broken files or directories that may be the problem.

  • My photo has suddenly appeared on my emails-how do I remove it?

    My photo has suddenly appeared in the upper right hand corner of all my emails. How do I remove it?
    At the same time, when I print my emails, the format has chaged. It rearranges my text-if I have breaks, lists, etc it puts the dialogue into continious sentences, ignoring my layout

    Remove your photo from your address book card.
    Only you see this by the way, it does not get sent.

  • All photos suddenly appear "black" within their frames.  Help!

    Between importing photos from my camera and quitting, then reopening the program again a few days later, my photos all now suddenly appear completely black (the same color as the window's background). In every photo folder I have, the correct number of photos appear. They are even oriented the way they would be, except, of course, that the contents of each photo (highlighted in blue, or with the usual thin white frame) is blank. Slideshows show blanks (black screen) with music playing as usual. The iPhoto library still contains the photos, with thumbnails, and I can open the files and view the photos in the iPhoto library using Preview.
    Why can't I see the photos within the program itself???

    Lude:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Are you referring to the thumbnails or the full sized image in the Edit window?
    It's an issue in iPhoto 6 that some fixed by updating to 10.4.6 using the COMBO updater followed by a repair of disk permissions with Disk Utility.

  • What is 9fee28000000 under shared hardware in my finder window, this has suddenly appeared.

    What is 9fee28000000 under shared hardware in my finder window, this has suddenly appeared.

    Yes it appears to be something on the network, however I haven't added any devices and don't own any PCs!  I've had the same network configuration for some time - this device has just appeared.
    I was hoping someone else might have seen this device ID before as I certainly did not add it knowingly.

  • Sync Icon On my Top Menu Bar Suddenly Appearing !

    Hi,
    After 3 weeks of Lion, Icloud and Ios 5 Update, I notice the sync Icon on my Top Menu Bar. On clicking it it shows me SYNC NOW option.
    What is this for ? It was never there earlier and I have not changed a single setting & not done any recent updates either. Why is this suddenly appearing. On  Googling for the same it shows only how to remove it by Option Dragging it off... But does not say how to get it back. Do i need this ?
    The only change I Notice  just yesterday when I saw this Sync Symbol, is that on adding or deleting Calendar events on my Iphone, I would have to launch iCal on my Imac Earlier to see the updates. But now even though iCal is off (QUIT), it automatically launches and updates the entry. This is great but I only want to know how is this all happening automatically since just yesterday.
    On my other User profiles it is not hapening automatically and the sync icon is not visible !
    Please help.
    thanks
    cyrus !

    you can remove the sync icon by holding down the command key and then drag the sync icon from your menu bar

    Repeatedly, this error code suddenly appears on the screen and I don't have a clue what it means or what to do:  "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player to run slowly.  If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive.  Do you want to abort the script?
                                             No     Yes"

    Hi,
    Some "movies' are actually Flash files.
    This means the Flash App will play them (possibly in a browser in some cases).
    Depending where this item is and how it is playing it may be effected by other things
    A web page can include javascript.
    Apple uses javascript here to help with creating the posting box, the Edit options, Adding pics/smilies and the like.
    Sometimes the javascript can be what is called a runaway process and gets sort of stuck in an endless loop.
    If it is a free standing item then it might be triggered by AppleScript on the Mac. (or be modified in some way)
    Again if the Script (normally written with a upper case S) is not perfect it can cause problems.

  • All of a sudden 1000  photos have suddenly appeared on my Iphone and I can't delete them and can't find them in my stream either.

    All of a sudden 1000 photos have suddenly appeared on my Iphone that came from my own computer and I can't delete them.

    You'll have to deselect the photos in the photo pane in iTunes on your computer and then sync the phone again, this will delete photos that have not been taken with the phone but synced from the computer.
