Thanks Kieth it is on wireless, but only recently has started doing this. It has been okay for about 12 months, why has it started just now an not 12 months ago? any ideas ? thank you for responding to my post.
Probably wireless interference causing multiple re-transmissions and causing the HH3 internal buffer to overflow and crash the home hub.
You could try a different wireless channel, or connect using a cable or powerline adapters.

Wireless is getting more congested and the problem is only going to get worse.

Iphone 3Gs turns its self off when i go on to the internet

Hello,
Can anyone please help me my Iphone 3Gs turns its self off when i go on to the internet, especially when i go on to google. When i am on the internet browsing my phone screen just goes blank then i need to turn my phone back on.
This happens all the time and it gets so bad that the internet doesn't turn on and turns its self straight off.
Thanks

You need to go through the basic troubleshooting steps as described in the User Guide:
Restart phone
Reset phone (press both home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears.
Restore phone in iTunes using a backup.
Restore in iTunes as a new iPhone, without using a backup.
BTW, are you really still using long obsolete iOS 3.0 as your profile states?
Is your phone jb or hacked? In that case, SOL.

HT1939 how come my apple power mac g5 turns its self off when i try opening a page

can you help my apple power mac g5 desktop is truning its self off when ever i try openning a page.or going online.it had recently been updated with os x 10.5.8

Hello,
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

IPOD RESETING ITS SELF

My ipod is just reseting its self. it keeps showing the apple logo and does nothing else but reset. i dont know whats wrong can someone help.

Mine did this aswell... my response may sound funny, but here is what's happening, and what I did to correct it. In my case, the hard drive was infinitively reseting because the needle on the drive was knocked out of place. Taking the iPod and hitting it on the palm of your hand rather firmly, corrected this issue for me... if this kind of bothers you, simply take it to your local Apple store and they'll replace it for you..

My ipod touch keeps turning the volume down by its self and when i try to turn it back up it wont let me also when the sound is off the speaker that comes up when you turn it on down on the screen wont go it just stays there it doesn't go!Any ideas why?

I got my ipod for christmas this year its the 4th generation.It keeps turning the volume down by its self,when i try to turn it up it does not work. It wont let me i dont know why so i cannot play music on my ipod which defeates the reason i got it.Also when it turns the volume down its self or i on the rare occasion that the volume works and i turn it down the speaker comes up and will not go.It stays there which is making my ipod difficult to use.Its been doing this for about a week now.I used it alot and i feel lost without it haha. Does anyone know why its doing this? Or a way i can fix it? I've cheaked for updates and there is none!
Thankyouuu
it looks like that when it is locked and when its unlocked it looks like this

Have you checked the volume button? It might be physically stuck. To determine whether a hardware repair is needed, you need to follow these steps:
1. Try doing a hard reset:
Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
After that: test the device to see whether the issue is solved.
2. If the issue is not solved, you should backup the device and restore it as new.
In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup.
If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
Good luck

I have bought an iphone 5 from cash converters, I'm waiting for a sim to arrive from my provider. I have left the iphone on the last two days and both days it's turned its self off when I went too look at it. Is this right or could my phone be faulty?

I have bought an iphone 5 from cash converters. I'm waiting for a sim from my provider to arrive by post. I have left my phone on and twice it has turned its self off, is this right or is my phone seem faulty? I haven't been able to try the phone out yet as I didn't have a small SIM card. I'm worried as to why it would be turned off when I didn't turn it off.?.

If it turns off again take it back it,s not your problem ask for a refund or replacement

Home Hub 3 WiFi - poor connection even when 2 metr...

My Home Hub 3's WiFi has always been **bleep** but lately it seems to be getting worse. Most of my devices are connected via Ethernet and are fine but my WiFi devices suffer problems: poor speeds, high/fluctuating pings, web pages slow to load.
Laptop (WiFi):
Speed test = 31 ms ping, 4.6 Mbps down, 7.0 Mbps up Google.co.uk ping = 27 ms, 48 ms, 301 ms, 14 ms
Server (Ethernet):
Speed test = 10 ms ping, 64.4 Mbps down, 16.3 Mbps up Google.co.uk ping = 8 ms, 8 ms, 8 ms, 8 ms
My server is actually busy doing networking stuff during this, yet has an excellent connection. The laptop's connection is pitiful, with pings all over the place (presumably due to constantly dropping packets). I actually managed to fix this last night by switching from 801.11b/g to 801.11b/g/n on the Home Hub but that didn't last since I'm having the same issues today. I've tried choosing automatic WiFi channel and switching manually to the least busy channel (1/6/11), and I've tried changing from 20 Mhz to 40 Mhz. Neither has any effect. I've also tried rebooting the router, which doesn't help.
I know it's a problem with the Home Hub since it happens with both of my phones also. Plus it occasionally seems to work fine. Is it just dying? I haven't ever moved it from its current position, which is in the centre of my flat.

up to you but using any of the other available channels does help in the majority of cases

No, but try restoring it:
Make sure you are following the instructions in this procedure to the letter. Here they are, with emphasis on some easily overlooked requirements:
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release only the Sleep/Wake button.
Continue pressing and holding the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Note: If you see the "low battery" screen, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears (iTunes icon and USB connector) release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the "recovery mode" alert ("iTunes has detected a phone in recovery mode").
Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you do not see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. Be patient since it sometimes takes several of these attempts before you are successful.
If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Select the device in iTunes and choose "restore from backup".
If you still can't get it to work, you have done all you can and only Apple will be able to help.

Tried everything I can. Must be a hardware malfunction. After hours on the phone to BT can't get it to work. Will BT send me another Bt Home Hub 3 for free or will i have to pay?

If you are currently within a minimum contract for BT Broadband, then your Home Hub is guaranteed, and BT will send you a new (or reconditioned) one. That assumes that you've gone through the endless fault-finding on the Indian help line.
Otherwise, you could re-contract and make sure you specifically ask for a new one. Or buy one from BT. Or buy one off the well-known internet auction site.

Home Hub 5 Firewall bug causing dropped DSL connec...

We've had infinity 2 since the start of December (2013) and have had nothing but problems with it. It frequently (5x a day atm) drops the connection, sometimes it fails to re-obtain the connection so does a full restart.
We had an engineer round who couldn't find anything wrong with our line, swapped us to another cable pair, but after a week of "stabilisation", the problems were still there. We had a "new" home hub, which had been left using a test bench WiFi Id, so I suspect it was another faulty return they've given us. It has been better - possibly 1/2 the number of disconnects, but still having problems. We had another engineer round, who replaced the backplate on the BT socket with a new one, with better rated capacitor for filtering. A few days later, not much better.
What I have noticed from the logs, is that the loss of connection frequently happens a few minutes (normally 2, sometimes 10) after the hub has blocked bogus (normally Chinese) remote admin attempts. Is there another attempt they're making that kills it, or is there a potential bug in the firewall that trips the reset?
08:34:03, 01 Feb.
IN: BLOCK [16] Remote administration (TCP 61.160.195.250:6000->86.134.x.x:22 on ppp3)
08:05:09, 01 Feb.
IN: BLOCK [16] Remote administration (TCP 211.75.112.37:61650->86.134.x.x:80 on ppp3)
It quite often drops the connection just after I have connected using my Android phone (which has no problems with any other device).
The log (before a reset) also includes bogus entries such as:
09:08:18, 01 Feb.
BLOCKED 2 more packets (because of Advanced Filter Rule)
09:08:17, 01 Feb.
OUT: BLOCK [44] Advanced Filter Rule (fw/policy/0/chain/fw_ath12_out/rule/0: UDP 0.0.0.0:68->255.255.255.255:67 on ath12)
Again, the firewall kicking in, just before a reset? Coincidence?
Line stats:
3. Firmware version:
Software version 4.7.5.1.83.8.173.1.6 (Type A) Last updated 15/01/14
4. Board version:
BT Hub 5A
5. VDSL uptime:
0 days, 00:28:57
6. Data rate:
6446 / 52409
7. Maximum data rate:
6616 / 52721
8. Noise margin:
6.2 / 6.1
9. Line attenuation:
0.0 / 23.2
10. Signal attenuation:
0.0 / 21.3
I'll have to give the line a few more days after last week's engineer visit before they'll listen to me again, but I'm considering cancelling my contract on the grounds they're unable to provide me with a stable broadband connection - despite the same line running standard ADSL perfectly well for 4 years
Oh, the HH5 also makes a quiet whining and ticking noise if you stick your ear up to it - is this normal?

You still have the same fault but not with the OR modem. Sounds like the HH5's are faulty
