Gate Way Connection dropped - Urgent

Hi,
  We created TCP/IP RFC destination. Through which we are calling the .NET services. The Listener running at .NET side. We can able to call the .NET function module. At this point of time we can see the entry(RFC) in TCode SMGW -->Goto --> Logged on clients.
  But over the period when we call the .NET function we are getting the Dump as follows.
Runtime Errors : CALL_FUNCTION_OPEN_ERROR
"CPIC-CALL: 'ThSAPECMINIT'#Transaction program not registered ""
Error text........... "program TDF_INT not registered"
Description.......... "TP TDF_INT not registered"
AT this point of time we cant see the entry(RFC)in TCode SMGW.
<u>Note:</u> When we restart the Listener at .NET side, i can able to call .NET Function module.
We are able to see whether gate way is opened or not.
Is there any way to Connect the gate way programmatically? Or anybody could say me why we its breaking the connection after some time

Hi
We’re also getting the similar kind of problem. We have .Net connector, but when it talks with SAP , its giving short dump . With "user name " does not exist . Finally we have posted the message to SAP.
What you can do to trace the problem :
You can also run the report: RSRFCTRC (TO Trace RFC ) OR  Tr. S_ALR_87101279.
FYI OSS note # 313971
Symptom
The "CALL_FUNCTION_SIGNON_REJECTED" runtime error occurred.
Dumps or RFC errors occur in the syslog or in the Developer Trace files (dev_w*) for the SAPSYS user in a dialog process.
These errors occur every 5 minutes.
The analysis displays the SAPMSSY8 report or certain function modules used by the monitor architecture as the error source.
CAUTION: Various system components may cause error messages for the SAPSYS (AB0) user. This note is limited to error messages from data collectors in the monitor architecture. Refer also to Note 487873.
Other terms
SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE, X_ERROR, CALL_FUNCTION_SIGNON_REJECTED, RZ20, sapdba, CONTROL_PERF_REQUEST, AB0, RZ03
Reason and Prerequisites
When restarting the system, certain reports (Startup methods) are executed in monitoring, to create subtrees for different subject areas in RZ20 (for example, database monitoring).
For these subtrees to be supplied with data in the current system, additional reports or function modules (data collective methods) must run on a regular basis.
You can start startup methods and data collective methods online or in the background. Online, they run on the SAPSYS user. The SAPSYS user only has limited rights, particularly with regard to RFC calls.
RFC error messages in the monitoring area can occur in customer-specific methods.
However, there are also some SAP standard methods for the database monitoring agent of RFC syslog messages.
An external command is executed via SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE on the database host in these data collective methods (function modules/reports). If they are not running on the database but rather on another application server, an RFC call is started, which causes the SAPSYS user to terminate.
The following methods should only run on the central instance:
CCMS_DB_Freespace_CT
CCMS_DB_Indices_CT
CCMS_DB_LogMgt_CT
CCMS_DB_OptStat_CT
Change this configuration for these methods:
New:
RZ21 -> method definition -> Control -> startup method
X Execute method immediately after monitoring segment start
X Only on central instance
Save the configuration.
Solution
The following applies for methods not provided in the SAP standard system:
Most RFC problems in the monitoring area (RZ20) can be solved by changing the configuration for the data collection methods and startup methods concerned.
1. To find out which data collective method generated an RFC error message, an RFC trace must be generated on the host on which the RFC syslog messages occur. For more information about this, see note 176277.
In transaction SM50, activate the trace for dialog processes until the error message has occurred in the syslog again. The syslog displays the affected work process (for example, dev_w0) and the related dev_rfc* (dev_rfc0) file displays the RFC initiator.
2. In some cases the RFC initiator in the dev_rfc file is a report or function module that is directly entered as a method in
RZ21-> Method definition
In other cases, only a where-used list for the RFC initiator leads to a method in RZ21. The following always applies:
3. You can always specify which host is to be used to execute the method.
RZ21 ->
  Method definition
       -> <Display/Change>
               -> Control -> Execute Method
                  Execution -> Execute Method on
Check whether for your site method (local server,
any server, etc.) and execution type (dialog or background) are set in such a way that in the case of RFC calls (if the method uses these) no authorization problems arise.
4. As of Release 4.6B
You can also specify an executing server for startup methods.
RZ21 ->
  Method definition
       -> <Display/Change>
               -> Control -> Startup Method
                   -> Execute Location of Startup Method.
Check to see whether this configuration is correct.
Up to Release 4.5B: (The problem is corrected as of Release 4.6B.)</>
CAUTION: Here, it is not yet possible to specify the application server to be used to execute a startup method.
In particular, methods that run as data collectors in the background, if they are simultaneously startup methods, are also executed once in the dialog during the system restart. This once-off execution in the dialog occurs on an any server (cannot be specified). If the startup method was unsuccessful, it is restarted the next time you start the interactive dispatcher (after 5 minutes).
! This means that even a method that should !
! actually run in the background, writes RFC !
! error messages in the Syslog every 5 minutes !
Possible workaround.
- Remove the startup indicator for this method
- For all application servers, delete the node
  CCMS Selfmonitoring
   -> MoniInfra<AppServer>
       -> Tooldispatching (short running tasks)
           -> STARTUP<XXXXXX>
that was created for the method affected (name of the method in the long text).
- Start the method manually (Transaction SE38 or SE37).
This bypasses the startup mechanism that causes the RFC error messages
<b>P.S award the points</b>
Thanks

  • BT Wi-Fi connection drops and cannot be closed

    I use BT Wi-Fi on a monthly subscription - 500 minutes for £6 a month, plus 12p a minute for any extra minutes.
    Occasionally my connection drops, and I have to reconnect and login again, which I can do OK.
    But when I check later how many minutes I used, via my online subscription info, it's clear that I end up with two connections running in parallel. The connection which dropped carries on as active in the background somewhere until it is eventually auto-disconnected (after 15 or 20 minutes ?) due to inactivity. So I lose those minutes each time this happens.
    There is no way to close the dropped connection. Even if I log out of my new 2nd connection, it only closes that one, not the dropped one which I can't access.
    Today this happened when I was at the end of my monthly allowance, so because I couldn't close the connection I've now gone around 30 minutes over my allowance, which will cost me £3.60.
    Please can we have a way of closing all connections on a BT Wi-Fi account, to deal with this issue.
    And a refund would be good, as I had no way of preventing my account going into the 12p a minute rate.

  • Internet Connection Drop Outs when remote administ...

    I did not want to trouble anyone here if I thought it unnecessary but now I feel that I do need some assistance so this warrants opening a new thread.
    BT Infinity Option 2 customer with BT HH 4 and its separate modem - not hacked so cannot read any useful information or login to see what is going on and both BT and the manufacturer long ago removed the open source code of the modem.
    I am quite confident now that these disconnections happen when a remote server/attacker attempts to gain access to my network. These can be from China, Iran and other places too. Sometimes Ministry of Defence? I don't know why I get these connection attempts and most of the time I see BT HH 4 does block these so why I get disconnected I have no idea?
    I made a post in an old thread before opening this thread and said it was due to firmware upgrade but I misread the date! It was not updated since the 8th of May I think. These disconnections have been happening only this past 4-7 days with the most 4 days with intensity greater than the 3 before. I am not 100% certain it is caused by the remote administration that is blocked.
    What happens when this takes place is the BT servers are then unreachable sometimes and I cannot regain a connection for up to 3 hours at a time, usually it is 5-10 mins max though. Without looking at my event log, any ideas?
    I want to get different gear now and never wanted to use BT equipment anyway because I want greater control and options to configure. I would like to go with DD-WRT or OpenWRT Router with Integrated VDSL v2 modem. Anyone here that may suggest one that supports either of these open firmwares? Not so much the concern to prevent any security holes or backdoors but just as much if not more for versatility and configuration and just having control over my network. being able to do upgrades when I want and not when my ISP decides needs doing. And before you say BT do not have backdoors then why would they admit they can remote login to devices and storage contents with their pwerline adapters even. I remember reading a news article quoting BT as admiting this. Anyway, that is not my main concern here, as much as privacy and security is not a crime it is rather rare online. First I need to get to the root cause of this.
    BT HH 4 is not reporting any DDOS attacks and even if it were I would not expect to experience any disconnection. I used to get tons of floods from DDOS attacks years ago when using Netgear routers and never exeprienced any downtime, but that was with another ISP. I don't detect any malware or anything like that and rarely download anything on this machine, I know web browsing can infect a system but I don't think that is it.
    I want to go back to how I used to do things. Any help with this is appreciated. I will need to get my router login details because I was never given those when I singed up with BT Infinity Option 2. I don't even know what my BT email is but do believe there is a way to recover that under my account. **In the past we have had intermittent connection drops and loss of sync but this is not the same right now.
    Edit:
    ** Just to clarify that was before we upgraded to BT Infinity Opt 2. This is the first time any probs with this service since upgrade and that must be about 6 months or more now.

    When running BT HH diagnostic it printed out that the username for login had changed and needed resetting or for me to enter my own in that I was NOT given! Anyway, when going to select manual reset it had not changed from default at all so I think this is just some default BT diagnostic that is false. I realise that other BT customers are affected by this with the BT HH5 but mine is HH4...my posting probably isn't as clear right now as I have not slept as much past few nights trying to figure this out. This is happening at different times of the day but more often during early hours.
    So I am getting these WGET TLS error(s)
    How do I enter in log excerpt from BT HH? Forums says my post exceeds 20K chars...

  • Internet connection drops with new HH4....

    I recently signed up to a new deal with BT and had to pay for my HH4. I have it all connected up the exact same way as my HH3. I am receiving a faster connection now but am now getting VERY frequent internet connection drops....
    My PC is wired to the HH so NOT a wireless issue. I have checked ALL my microfilters and seem to be working. Nothing within my home has changed apart from the homehub. I used to be connectiong at around 6.5Mb, I am now connecting between 7.5 and 8Mb....
    9 times out of 10 the connection drops when I receive an incoming call.... but not always. I can make outgoing calls with ZERO issues....

    BT engineer was out to fix the line in February of this year. A new main box was fitted (which I was billed for) and he also fitted an iplate to the box to allow the hub to be connected without the need for a filter since they are built in.......
    an Iplate will not do away with any filters and they will be required on all sockets - unless you mean a filtered faceplate not iplate - 2 sockets 1 adls and 1 phone

  • Home hub 3, broadband connection dropping

    Hi, just a few days ago I recived my new home hub 3. The reason I wanted the upgrade from the hub 1 is because the broadband connection would drop and also the old hub would reset it self constantly.
    The new hub is much better in terms of not resetting itself, if i try and watch something on 4od etc, youtube, it feels like any stress and the braodband connection drops, I had this on the old hub but it feels like its happening more now.
    So much so I decided to make a paint version of my wiring so someone can maybe help me out.
    http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r173/guysy1110/​routerproblem.png
    Sorry the paint image came out much smaller than I wanted.
    The main phone line is dowstairs in the lounge, its split into 2 using a 2 way splitter, one goes to the main phone which has a microfilter attached, the other plug leads up to the spare room and there a phone box (sorry not sure what its called) is in place, this box was split into another one because a long time ago there was a router that lived in the spare room (the split box is unused). Probably confusing people now, but the main box upstairs in the spare room is extended into my room and then a microfilter is used and then goes into the hub.
    The extension cable is FAR too long, possibly 10m of cable wound up and tucked behind the drawers. Could this be a problem? I guess so.
    So my main questions are, if both the router and main phone have new microfilters on, what other causes could keep my router dropping the broadband connection? the extension into my room is FAR too long possibly 10m which is wound up behind my drawers, first off im going to get a shorter cable. 
    Also the microfilter is closest to the hub, would it be better at the first source downstairs, or even in the spare room?
    Any suggestions would be great. thanks.

    Im reviving this thread, so far from the phone box upstairs Ive shortened the cable, It still goes into my room but now instead of having a ridiculous 15m amount of calbing unused Its a straight 3m from the other room to mine.
    This has slightly improoved things.
    However the hub still suffers and drops the broadband connection when under "stress" when the phone rings it sometimes drops, and when downloading files it drops halfway through if the file is large which is a massive pain.
    On the downstairs master socket I removed the facia and did a quiet line test on the inside socket, there was no noise. I used a corded phone. I wasnt sure if it mattered but I tested all other sockets using this method and none had any noise.
    I phoned BT and was advised to take the hub closest to the master socket, but if i do this I have no wireless card in my PC so cannot connect, The obvious option is to get a wireless card but that will cost money. As will buying the power lines.
    Any suggestions? I guess plugging the hub in downstairs and trying to connect to something is the best option.
    Any advice please?

  • BT Infinity Connection Dropping but BT refuse to a...

    Hi,
    So in September we got BT Infinity. It was a hassle and handled terribly by BT customer service but we eventually got it. It's been working fine for around five months but within the last few weeks we have been having connection issues.
    Over Easter I have spent over 10 hours on the phone to BT via my landline and mobile trying to get a solution, but all I have got is a repeated denial of my problems.
    On the 27th March I called BT to report that our connection had been repeatedly dropping over the past few weeks and a fault was opened. I was told I would be updated but no-one called back despite promises they would do.
    I called BT on the 28th March to follow up my issues but was met with an advisor who lacked knowledge in the issue and simply told me to continue monitoring my connection.
    I called BT on the 3rd April as there had been no improvement in my connection, which is dropping multiple times per day, and on this day 7 times. After going through the same repetitive questioning session about how I connect to the internet, a deep line test was run, and it was decisively concluded that there was a fault with the line within BT's retail servers. I was told this would be followed up and promised a call back on the 4th April.
    After I had not received a call back on the 4th April within the time allocated to me, I called BT where I was met with an awfully rude woman who had no interest in helping me and went on to suggest what I was saying was an outright lie and she categorically stated there had been no call back booked despite me having the text in front of me which confirmed it.
    After being told to 'continue monitoring my line', a slightly repetitive phrase favoured by BT Customer Service, I called back as instructed on the 8th April. Again, I went through a repetitive process before finally making some sort of progress and being sent a new home hub.
    My new home hub arrived on the 11th April and made no difference to my problem. I therefore called BT and spoke to an advisor who told me he could only assume the Home Hub was sent in error, as he was absolutely adamant it would make absolutely no difference to my situation. I was told to 'continue monitoring my connection' over the next few days but before he ended the call I asked him a number of questions, none of which were adequately answered.
    Why is our connection dropping? Rather than giving me an explanation as to why it is dropping, he told me that we are lucky it only drops a few times a day! He said 'everyone in the world suffers from a connection which drops multiple times per day' and that 'there is absolutely nothing we can do because there is no problem'. He told me about rate-adaptive lines, which according to him 'are used by every household in the world' and that these lines 'inevitably drop out up to five times a day, which is normal and acceptable'.
    So how many times can it drop before it's considered a fault? The basic answer I received is that there is no limit! It doesn't matter how many times it drops, it absolutely normal! Only if it drops '20-30+ times per day' is it considered a problem worth solving to BT.
    Why do you never call back (in particular, why did no-one call back on the 4th April, and why did an advisor accuse me of lying about the call back)? They said that when the issue is escalated from Level 1 to Level 2, it is impossible to see any contact between the customer and Level 1, so when the call back wasn't arranged as it should've been, there was no way BT could've known. He apologised for this and the way I was treated by his colleague.
    Why was a fault reported on the 3rd April? Why have I not been updated since? Simple answer from BT. There probably was no fault, that was probably also incorrectly opened. Note the key word probably. The advisor I talked to said he had no idea what happened in any of my previous calls and that there was no way he could find out why the fault was opened, or listen to the call (despite all calls being recorded). He said it was impossible for Level 2 to hear the content of any calls made with Level 1 and that it was 'impossible for an advisor to take notes for a call lasting more than half an hour'.
    I recieved a call back today on my mobile where I was told just to continue monitoring the fault. However I was also told, again, quite categorically, that there is nothing wrong and that he would happily send an engineer in three days but that 'he would be able to do absolutely nothing. It would be a waste of time'. The advisor also refused to give any details on how much this would cost and was desperate to end the call saying 'goodbye' despite me being mid sentence multiple times.
    I have now been told to 'continue monitoring my connection' and await another call back on Friday, by which point I will have wasted many more hours on the phone to BT.
    Your customer service is disgusting. Your lack of compassion and understanding is disgusting. The way you totally mislead customers is disgusting.
    And now for my top BT Operator quotes (or near quotes, as obviously no-one has any idea what was said in these calls, not even BT!):
    "If your temperature raised to 100 degrees celcius but then went back to normal, there would be no problem, it's the same with broadband"
    "Everyone in the world has a rate-adaptive line and everyone in the world should expect their line to drop"
    "If your line only drops 5 or 6 times a day there is no problem, you obviously should've known this before you signed up for Infinity"
    "There definitely is a fault.... there definitely isn't a fault" - the trademark conclusiveness of BT
    "We can limit the speed on the phone line, but it would have to be to 1mb" - this is despite absolutely contradictory help published by BT
    But despite these humorous moments, I have wasted a huge amount of time on the phone to BT.
    I have one simple demand. Stop the broadband from dropping multiple times per day. If you cannot do this, let us leave, as you are not meeting your contractual obligations and therefore we shouldn't have to either.
    And please... don't apologise for your colleague not calling back in the first minute of the phone call and then not call back.

    Hi Bryan,
    Like yourself and many, many other people who come to these forums - I have been experiencing the same problems. Constant disconnections, and recently, speed dropping to 4Mb in the Evenings (I'm supposed to be getting 74Mb).
    It's ridiculous with how many people are experiencing these problems and BT are blatently ignoring it. To add insult to injury, this was posted in February. A statement from BT basically saying "Well you're all gonna be having problems, but it's on you."
    Don't fret though, the moderators, and other people from the community can be fantastic help.
    Purchasing an Openreach modem, suggested by ray_dorset, I'll still be awaiting for the Huawei 612, V3b modem to arrive and hoping this will fix the drops in speed. I currently have an ECI modem fitted in, which has stopped the disconnects, but have not stopped the speed drops.
    For anyone reading this who is unfamiliar with modems as I was:
    As far as I know, there's currently two types of Openreach Modems. Every exchange is built with a certain "chipset" which will work best with these modems (explaining in simplistic terms and I could be very wrong, so I am happy to be corrected.)
    The Two Openreach Modems:
    Huawei 614
    ECI
    From the advice I have been given by the moderators, if you're new to BT Infinity, then your exchange may have only recently been built, which is then most likely to have a chipset which will work better with Huawei modems. I'm about to find out this by next week.
    If, in some horrible scenario it doesn't work and the speed is still constantly dropping, then you may need to fork out and purchase a new router (BUT KEEP THE MODEM). Many people have said their internet has been fixed by doing this.
    One of the things I did find pretty hillarious however, is that I did call up BT the other night due to having terrible connections. He told me to take out my modem and just use the home hub 5. He then kept telling me to change a few settings on the HH5 and run a speedtest. Every, single, time we changed something - the speed would get lower and lower, followed by an "Uhhh, monitor your speed over the course of this week and then we'll call you back."
    I'm sorry, but BT customer service have no idea how to fix this, so don't waste your time ringing them. I genuinely feel bad for them too, they have to put up with our **bleep** while the engineers at BT who work on the firmware for the HH5 can't be arsed to try and fix it any further.
    Seriously, mate - just try the steps above, come to the forums if you need help because you're more than likely to get a better answer. I know it sucks not being able to call up BT because they're just going to give you a bunch of BS, but if everyone who had a complaint on this forum worked for BT tech support, maybe there'd be more satisfied customers.

  • Connection drops with arch64 and atheros wireless

    Hi, I've just installed arch64 on my desktop. I have a dlink dwa-556 wireless adapter, with atheros chipset. The card is seen correctly and has been configured. I started a kdemod install with pacman, went on for about an hour, and then it hung, the wireless connection dropped... I tried to start it up again, but only a reboot could help... now I started pacman again and after some minutes bang! connection dropped again...
    this is what iwconfig says

    Tx-Power27dBm

    iwlist says my router has a quality of 30-40/100 and a signal level of around -76dBm
    any help?

    Last edited by sunriis (2009-02-19 18:45:04)

    I think I may be experiencing something similar. I'm also running Arch64 and have the exact same adapter (DWA-556) and every once in a while my wireless connection drops. It only happens once every few days or so, but whenever it happens on my system it seems to cause anything Xorg-related (mouse, keyboard, video) to respond slowly. If I move the mouse around it doesn't move smoothly - it kind of jerks and jumps around.
    Whenever the connection drops like this, I see the something like the following in /var/log/messages.log:
    Feb 16 17:07:26 blacktower dhcpcd[19326]: ath0: carrier lost
    The first couple of times this happened to me, I had to reboot to get the connection going again. I did find another way to get the connection working, though. What I did was unload the modules related to the wireless adapter, reload them, and then reconnect to the network. I wrote a quick shell script to do this for me, which looks like this:
    #!/bin/sh
    sudo rmmod ath_pci ath_rate_sample ath_hal
    sudo modprobe ath_pci
    sudo modprobe ath_hal
    sudo netcfg -d home
    sudo netcfg home
    I'm using the madwifi driver right now and as you can see, I use netcfg to connect to my wireless network here. I've tried the ath5k driver but I seem to have the same issue with that. I haven't really found a solution to this yet, but the workaround of removing the modules, reloading them, and then reconnecting has worked well enough so far. If I dig up anything else helpful on this, I'll be glad to post it here.

  • Airport connection dropping off when computer sleeps

    Starting with the latest 10.4.8 update my airport connection drops when the computer goes to sleep. No amount of configuring will get the computer to recognize my airport. Turning off the power to the airport, waiting, and re-connecting does no good. The only way to get wireless is to restart. Once restarted the airport connection is re-established without any configuration and continues to be fine until the computer goes to sleep. Hard wiring ethernet works at all times without problems.

    thanks,
    i read the doc, looked in the system prefs where my re-connect was set to "preferred" and there was only one wpa network listed. i deleted it from the list then re-added per the apple document. will see if this works.
    in my own mind i don't think this is the solution but am keeping an open mind. the weird thing about my situation is that after the computer sleeps there are no available networks under the airport menu. i know in fact there are 4-6 in my area. after restarting the 4-6, including mine, networks are all there and my network has been connected to.

  • Constant Connection Drops

    I'm Panther (10.3.9), RCN cable, no wireless, no router.
    My connection drops 5-10-15 times a day. Hitting "renew DHCP lease" brings it back. I work at home and am often up/downloading large graphics files, and this is destroying my productivity.
    I tried calling the RCN tech support line. Nothing useful. They said my connection is fine, and besides don't have anyone on the floor who knows anything about macs. I called Apple tech support. Baffled. They said it might be my ethernet card, but were doubtful.
    As a last resort, I brought my computer to a friend's house and hooked it up to her DSL line with the same ethernet cable. It stayed connected for 10 hours straight. I brought it back to my apartment, and the connection dropped. A tech came by and replaced both the modem and the cable today. Connection STILL DROPS. RCN thinks I'm hallucinating or something and continually denies there may be an issue on their end.
    The service worked perfectly for 2.5 months, and then went splat! I didn't do anything at my end. One day it worked, next it didn't.
    Suggestions? I would get a new ISP, but RCN is the only one that services my building.

    This is exactly the problem that I'm having with my WRT54GS v6.
    Usually it will stay connected to the Internet for days, but once in a while (like yesterday) it constantly loses connection.
    My first indication of trouble is a web page not loading or a game becoming disconnected. Browsing to 192.168.1.1 usually works, where I'll see that the Internet has become disconnected. However, sometimes the router doesn't even respond at all, and I'll have to wait and refresh the page a few seconds later. Clicking the "Connect" button usually works to reconnect to the Internet, but it doesn't always work right away and then I have to try several times.
    When this happens, quite often I'll get reconnected for less than a minute before it disconnects again. I have just time enough to verify that web pages are loading normally, online games can be accessed, etc ... and then its gone again. Suffice it to say that this is extremely frustrating.
    I've seen alternate (lower) MTU values suggested here and in other threads. I'll give that a try for a few weeks and see how things shake out. I think the default was 1500 or 1492 or some such. I'm going to lower mine to 1450, as suggested here, or possibly as low as 1300, as I've seen elsewhere.
    Are there any other useful troubleshooting tips that you would recommend for this type of issue?
    Thanks for your help,
    - Adam.
    Edit: I should mention that yesterday I finally removed the router from the network and connected my computer directly to my modem. The Internet connection has been working without any trouble this way. So it would seem to not be a problem with my ISP or modem, and rather with the router, as I had suspected.Message Edited by Kaspre on 08-28-2006 09:11 AM

  • Cisco VPN connection drops on airport extreme on OS X 10.6.7

    I recently bought Airport Extreme and I must say the wifi coverage and strength is amazing compared to the DLink or Belkin routers that I tried. THe whole thing setup like in 2 minutes. Love it.
    Now the problem. I use CISCO VPN provided by work a lot as I work from home frequently. I have found that the VPN connection drops like in 2-5 minutes of connecting. I looked through the several threads and apple response " to use NAT-T in CISCO VPN preferences". Only thing is that I did not see any NAT setting options in preferences and also I am unable to edit anything in the CISCO VPN pref (probably things locked out by our IT who provided the vpn software).
    I also tried someone's suggestion that I switch to manual radio channels in the airport utility config - but that didn't work either.
    Any suggestions?
    I am on OS X 10.6.7 and CISCO VPN CLIENT 4.9.0.1.0180
    URGENT HELP NEEDED

    airport is off how can i turn it on?
    Click on the AirPort icon in the OS X menu bar. Select "Turn Wi-Fi On" or "Turn AirPort On" as appropriate.
    how can i reinstall mac os x 10.6.7?
    I would suggest that you start with the Snow Leopard installation disk. You can then update to 10.6.7 from Software Update.

  • Wireless connection drops and doesn't reconnect (netcfg, wpa_actiond)

    I use netcfg 2.5.4-1 and wpa_actiond 1.1-1, B43 driver (BCM4318 wireless card) with firmware.
    $ uname -a
    Linux vekta 2.6.32-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Mar 15 20:08:25 UTC 2010 i686 Mobile AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 3100+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
    Connecting works fine. I can connect using sudo netcfg <profile>, or it automatically connects me on startup.
    However, after a few minutes (up to 15 at best, usually 3-5) the connection is dropped. dmesg prints:
    "No probe response from AP <macaddress> after 500ms, disconnecting."
    However, netcfg isn't notified of this event, and still thinks the profile is connected. So I have to use netcfg -r <profile> to reconnect. Isn't netcfg supposed to notice this connection drop and try to reconnect again automatically?
    Also, is there any way to increase the 500ms threshold mentioned in the log? I don't think I ever had this problem when I first installed arch in november/december last year.
    Thank you.

    Hey,
    I'm having this sort of problem with my Broadcom wireless card, in my case however the connection seems to drop after a period of inactivity. What you have done might solve my problem. So exactly what modification have you made in netcfg ?

  • Connection drops on a SA520W

    Hi,
    I have the SA520W installed, firmware 1.1.21.
    In some way when i enable my SITE-TO-SITE VPN's i get connection drops via NAT. (so not on the VPN hosts)
    for example i have 2 site-to-site vpn's active, and i'm connected to a external (not inside the vpn cloud) host via RDP the connection drops every 10 seconds and comes back again in also a few seconds.
    When i disable al site-to-site vpn's the external connections are fine.
    Somebody has equel problems?
    Is there a way to get support on my problem, and how?
    Thanks,
    Jan van den Dungen

    Could you post your config?  I am interested in the problem you are having. 
    You should open a case for the problem you are having.

  • Wireless Connection drops after a few moments

    Hello everbody!
    Background: I have a cheap laptop with a windows only ACPI module, so I have to set acpi=off at all times anyway. I tried Ubuntu, which has the wireless problem too, but instead of repairing something bloated like Ubuntu, I now found my way to Arch to make it right from the beginning.
    If the wireless problem gets solved, I want to go on installing the nvdia driver, maybe configure xmonad. (I want to try KDE4 for fun too though, eyecandy you know ) Simple working desktop without getting my laptop heated up like windows does.
    The problem: I set up my wireless connection like the wiki says:
    -The original SSID was "FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7270 Annex A" which I tried to escape with \ and using 'ssid'. This wouldn't work at all, if you have any explanation for that I'd love to know it. I changed the SSID to something without spaces and special characters and the connection would work. But it would be nice to change it back to the original.
    -So it works now. Fine, I thought. But the connection drops after a few moments and I have to "killall wpa_supplicant dhcpcd" and start them again to make it work again. For a few moments only. So I went through the logfiles and found error messages which Google wouldn't help me solve on my own. Now I'm asking the Arch specialists here
    Note: Using the partedmagic livecd, the wireless connection works out of the box and absolutely stable. I believe even a bit faster than under windows. So it has to work perfectly, I just don't know how to make it in Arch yet.

    Thanks in advance to anyone helping me! I really really want to get Arch going. It's ideal for this laptop, no wasting of disk space, ressource friendly, the temperature doesn't go up as much with less cpu usage I guess..
    I've written quite a bit, but hopefully this makes it easier for you to help me! I've included all I thought which could be useful.

    The easiest solution might be to setup NetCfg somehow with your wifi card and access point.  Have you tried that?  Can you find your card's chipset on the wiki?(chances are that your particular chipset will need a firmware put into /lib/firmware.  Again that's found on the wiki on the NetCfg or Wifi page, I forget which sorry.)  Those are two places where I'd look for good information.
    By the way, your rc.conf is way out of date.  You should look at updating it by using the recent rc.conf.pacnew file that you'll find in the /etc directory.

  • Wireless connection drops after time. Please assist.

    Hi
    My problem is that my wireless connection drops every 5-15 minutes.
    I don't know all the relevant info to give.  If there's something I can post that will help let me know and I'll reply.
    I've used netcfg to configure my network.  I have a Canyon CN-WF511 wireless card.
    I load the following 3 modules in my rc.conf;  rt2500pci rt2x00lib rt2x00pci.  I think those are the only ones pertaining to my network card.
    When it drops I just netcfg -a then netcfg default (profile name) and it works for another few minutes.
    Below is my network profile.
    CONNECTION="wireless"
    INTERFACE=wlan0
    #IP="dhcp"
    #DHCP_TIMEOUT=20
    IP="static"
    IFOPTS="192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255"
    GATEWAY=192.168.0.1
    #DOMAIN=localdomain
    #DNS1=192.168.0.1
    ESSID=default
    SECURITY=none
    SCAN="YES"
    TIMEOUT=15
