Hard Router Reset
What router settings return to defaults when the router is reset with the reset control on the back? I need to reset the encryption type and password: I'm having problems with WEP2/PSK.

The router will reset to the settings Verizon programmed into it when you recieved it.
So the SSID will reset to the one listed on the sticker on the side of the router
The WEP key will be back to 64bit Wep Hex. Also located on the sticker on the side of the router.
Any and All personalized settings (DMZ, port forwarding, parental controls, etc) will all be reset
Username and password for the router will be reset to ADMIN / password

my ipad 1st generation will not locate wi-fi networks. i have reset and have done router reseting, still nothing. any suggestions?
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

Airport Extreme in extender mode does not reconnect after main router reset.
I have an Airport Extreme 4th Gen (extender). set to extend the signal from an Airport Extreme 5th Gen (main). Whenever the main router resets (after reconfig, etc) the extender does not reconnect. I would have to restart the extender before it will connect again to the network. However, my Airport Express set to extend will automatically reconnect. Is this a settings issue? Please advise.
Ok, well I am hoping you are not doing a re-config of your 5'th gen all the time? This should only be done very rarely... we're talking like less than once a year for many people. Unless there's something else going on there, I wouldn't worry about it if you have to power-cycle the 4'th gen once in a few blue moons.

No Remote DVR After Router Reset
Remote DVR was working fine, then after router reset it no longer works.
This is very poor system design.
Rebooted DVR - No joy.
Can ping DVR so know it is on the network
DVR Self Diag passes all test and listener 1 is started
FiOS TV Central Error Message: "There was an error while processing your request. Please try again later."
Router has TCP port 35000 forwarded to DVR port 8082 (192.168.1.100:8082)
before reset it was UDP port 63145 forwarded to DVR (192.168.1.100)
Did I already mention this is very poor system design.
Motorola QIP-7216
Actiontec MI424-WR Rev. COne other thing you can try.
Unplug the dvr from power
Power cycle the router
Once the router comes back up, then plug the DVR back in
When the DVR boots back up, supposedly the rules for the remote dvr will be reloaded into the router. Sounds strange but I've been told it works.

Hard factory reset and my findings
Alright...I decided to do a hard reset on my phone after having a few issues with froyo. I had TK taskiller installed previous to doing a hard reset. The two biggest issues I had was my texting seem to lag when I was texting. Like it couldnt keep up. The other issue was my batter would go from 100% to like 86% within an hour of little to no use.
I performed a hard rest. (powered off phone, press the down volume and press the power button, select clear storage.) This complete resets phone, even had to reactivate the phone.
Charged phone all night as usual. Had it turned off while charging throught he night, as usual. Battery was still at 100% even after an hour. Phone was at 86% at 2pm. I took it off the charger at 7am, mind you. Also I did not reinstall my app killer after hard resetting but I did reinstall all apps the I previously had. I exported contacts to sd card before resetting so all I had to do was import them back to phone after reset. There is no longer any lag in my text usage.
My findings....battery performance has definitely increased, in fact it is almost 9pm and batter is at 76%. This is an extended battery, mind you, but...it was the same battery that was below 50% at this time before the reset.
In summary, the small issue with texting has been resolved and my battery is definitely lasting longer. As to why the battery lasts longer, wether it was due to reset or just not having app killer, I do not know. So yeah....hard reset and no app killer worked great for me!I also did a hard factory reset. I was using the 3500 extended battery, and after the upgrade to 2.2, what used to be 6 days on a single charge was reduced to only 2 days. So, I did the hard factory reset. I DID NOT find that to be helpful with the battery usage.
But, what I did find is that if I leave my WiFi turned on, the battery drains much more quickly than if I shut it off and only turn it on when needed. However, this was not a problem under 2.1. I left the WiFi on all the time. -
Spontaneous hard factory reset
Two days ago, I turned on my iPad to play a little GodFinger. I found that the "Connect to laptop" starting screen was on. I figured this was some way Apple had of forcing customers to take an update for security reasons or some such. Imagine my shock when I found out that this was a spontaneous hard factory reset. I have to take a sync from 6 weeks ago and reset from there. I'm furious. I cannot believe that I'm alone with this symptom. Has anyone else suffered this?
Curious,
MatthewJust back from vacation in Arizona, where I bought the iPad2.
Had it now for 2 weeks, everything fabulous.
Updated to OS ver 4.3.1 yesterday.
Downloaded various apps, incl. Numbers etc.; keeping them in 6 folders, so that all are accessible from main home screen.
THEN DISASTER:
(sorry if longwinded, but I want to give as much background as possible - I don't want to hard-reset if at all possible!)
A couple of hours ago I created various test emails on the Mac, each with a different file attached, e.g. jpg, txt, doc, pdf, xls etc. and sent them out.
Then, from the iPad, I looked at these emails in 'Mail'.
They all opened ok, and apart from an wmv video file I could open all of them.
While in Mail and looking at one of the files, pdf I believe, things went wrong.
I could not get out of the viewing screen back to the mail box menu.
Pressing the Home button got me back to the Home screen.
Touching Mail icon brought the 'frozen' file view again.
So I pressed the 'Off' button. Screen went blank and the little rotating whirl appeared in the screen's centre.
AND THATS THAT !!
It has been whirling now for over an hour. Pressing either Home or Off button, even for 10 seconds or more, does not change anything.
I then connected the iPad to the Mac.
iTunes gave error code 0xE8000065 and ''connected iPhone can't be read...''
So now I have plugged the iPad into the mains, via the power cord, so as not to run out of battery charge.
Tomorrow (UK time) I shall call Apple Care.
Any thoughts??? -
Laptop shut off during hard drive reset
My laptop shut off during a hard drive reset and now it says to do a system reset but I don't know what to do
Sure sounds like a hardware problem to me. To verify that you would need to attempt to restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media.
If you failed to create it, you can obtain it from Toshiba. Scroll down to Get Recovery Media here.
For instructions, see the section Restoring from recovery media, which begins on p. 57 of the User's Guide.

Reformat Hard Drive - reset network?
Hey ya'll!
I was wondering if reformatting my hard drive (the one connected to the router) will reset my network. If so, is there any way to avoid this?
Thanks!buddyboy101 wrote:

If what you are asking is....
if you reformat your computer, that happens to have an ethernet cable attached to your router, will it reset or modify your network or your router settings....
then the answer is
no this will not modify your network or your router.
if your router provides dhcp, then you should have no issues at all
if your computer is using static addressing, then you will have configure your NIC. -
Network Settings After Router reset
My telephone switchboard had a fault (unknown to me) which made my ADSL Router interfere with my telephone. Initially I suspected that my router was faulty and went through a sequence of checks to isolate the problem. this included resetting the router to its factory settings. The switchboard problem having been fixed, the interference from the router ceased (the router was not the problem) and I proceeded to reconnect to my ISP but could not do so. The router gave solid DSL and Ethernet lights and I appeared to be connected but I could not open any pages in Safari. In desperation, I booted from my external hard drive; I was able to connect straight away and was able to reset my ADSL username and password. However, this only works on my external boot drive. When I re-boot using my internal drive I am unable to open any pages in Safari. It appears that something in my Network settings (?) on my main drive has been corrupted, but I cannot work out what (It is not Safari as that worked okay when I was booted from the external drive). Could it be my Network Preference Pane? How should I proceed?
Andy, many thanks for your input. I had already done what you suggested but tried it again. Diagnostics could not isolate the problem. The only difference in behaviour was that during the diagnostics process the 'Ethernet' light flashed at about 5 second intervals. Prior to using the diagnostics tool all 3 lights were steady and the Network preferences panel stated that I was connected to the Internet on built-in ethernet. When I open Safari, however, I get the dialogue box that I am not connected to the Internet and offered Network Diagnostics.
This is why I believe that my problem is a faulty Start-up item or extension (does OSX have 'extensions'?) but I do not know how to identify where the fault lies. I have searched my systems using Spotlight in an attempt to find a Network or Internet related file with a recent modification date but this has drawn a blank. Frankly, I think that there are just too many files for this approach to work. I guess that I can try replacing likely sounding files one by one, but I am afraid of making the problem worse by this approach.
Thanks again for your comments, but I remain open to any new approaches to solving my problem. -
i just got an ipod 5 and the person that had it before has it link to there apple id and didnt give me a password i did a hard reset and nothing happen it still asking me for a password how do i bypass that cause i want to start useing it

Hello, I am having some major troubles connecting my iPhone 4S to my home wifi. When I try to connect on my phone, it says I have an incorrect password. That's not possible because I can connect my MacBook to the same network with the same password. I have reset my network settings on my phone, reset my router, called apple support, triple checked I was trying it in correctly, I have no clue what's going on.
The only thing different is I just moved, but I have the same router/phone/internet provider.
I've seen some discussions of router security options being the problem, I have my router connected to : WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES].
The other options are: WEP , WPA-PSK[TKIP] , WPA2-PSK [AES] , WPA/WPA2 Enterprise.
My troubleshooting and understanding of all this is pretty limited, my applecare service did not help, please can anyone help me?
Thanks!If the issue happened after an update, you may want to go into an Apple Store. Be sure to let them know exactly what's wrong with the device.

Ive tried resetting network settings, tried selecting join networks>other> and manually put in network and change security to WPA, ive tried resetting my phone, ive tried updating firmware on my wireless router. I dont know what else to try??? my husbands iphone3 is connecting to our wi-fi.

After a router reset, can't get second PC to access the internet
I had my wireless router (WRT54G) and printserver working fine and then a problem with my DSL had me resetting both boxes (yeah I should have know better). I've fought back and have everthing working for one PC that has an internal wireless but my other PC has a WPC54G wireless card and I can't get it to work. Both PCs are XP, SP2. The Linksys appl says that it contacted the access point but can't access the internet. It has always been flaky about this but usually gets to the internet. It does have a good IP address, the WEP key and channel are right but 'no joy'. I can ping the router and the printserver but I can't bring up the router's home page but I can print to the printserv. I did not change the modem to 'bridge' yet.
TIA....jackWhat is the IP Address you are getting on the computer...?It should be in the range of your router.IP Address should be 192.168.1.x, Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1 (assuming your router is 192.168.1.1)...
If you get the above mentioned IP Address, Subnet and Gateway Address then you should ping the Gateway, type ping 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...If it gives you request timed out then disable any firewalls, security software on the computer...
If you get 4 replies then type ping 4.2.2.2 and press Enter, if you get request timed out, then you need to upgrade your router's firmware...If you get 4 replies then type ping yahoo.com and press Enter...If you get replies for Yahoo then you should get the Internet after adjusting the browser settings...
Adjusting Browser Settings : Open an IE, click Tools >> Internet Options, then delete all files, cookies, history, forms...Goto "Connections", make sure Never Dial a Connection is checked, click on LAN Settings and make sure all the options are unchecked...Once you are done click on O.k...Close the IE and re-open it...
If yahoo times out then provide static DNS on your WAN Connection...
Click on the Start button >>> Settings >>> Control Panel >>>Network Connections- Right click on the icon for Wireless Network Connection and go to properties- On the 'General' tab select 'Internet Protocol TCP/IP' and click on the Properties button- Select 'Use the Following DNS Settings' Preferred DNS 4.2.2.2 Alternate DNS - 4.2.2.3>>Click on Ok button to Save and Click on "Close" on main Properties window...You should be able to go online... -
Router resets on certain web pages....Help
Until this morning my BT Business hub has worked flawlessly then suddenly when I attempt to go to my Bank log in the router will reset itself.
I cannot fnd any other web page where it does this and my laptop is working fine through the router.
Anybody got any ideas.
ALecGood, Internet Explorer can cause problems, especially if the space reserved for Temporary Internet Files is more than about 20Mb.
It may be work checking that, as the default value is usually very large, and can slow web browsing quite a lot.
