Ichat won't work when connected to links WRT54GS ROUTER

does anybody know why ichat wont work behind linkswireless router (WRT54GS) i tried opening the port 5190 and still doesnt work on G5 running tiger. Pls help????

Hi Joel,
Many LinkSys set uppages look the same.
This one is for the WRT54g (no S at the end)

In the Adminstration option you should find UPnP which is an On or Off setting.
Try that.
Also check that the modem and the Linksys are not both doing DHCP as this creates subnets which ichat also doe not like

IChat AV not working when connecting wirelessly thru Netgear router

Ok, I have read nearly EVERY forum out there about this issue, and I have tried nearly everything. I even called Apple. Noone can seem to figure out what the deal is.
I have a Netgear WGR614 v5, and it is connected to a modem that I got from RoadRunner (Time Warner Cable).
My cousin, who has a Mac identical to mine, is set up in the same fashion with a Netgear router.
Neither of us can get a video connection using iChat. When we click the Accept button, it says "Connecting to ...." and then we both get an error that basically says there was a "communication error".
I was informed of an Apple test address that I could test it with. AIM username is appleu3test03. I added it to my iChat buddy list, and clicked on the camera icon, and voila! It connected and I get an iPhone video (which is what is supposed to happen)
So, what EXACTLY is that supposed to tell me???? The Apple test site says that means there is no problem with my connection, but that the issue is on my end somewhere....but I don't understand how that can be.
Anyway, I don't have ANY firewalls on, and it works when I am connected directly with an Ethernet cable.
PLEASE!!! HELP!!
Thanks
Cynthia

Hi arvideo,
OK IS the UPnP on in this device ?
And no Port Forwarding or Services set ?
IS it the only device connected to the internet ? (is there another router or a modem ?)

Internet won't work when connection goes through WRT54GS wireless router

I get the page not found error when I open the internet when my connection goes through my WRT54GS router. It works fine when it is plugged into the wall, although I have to disable/enable the local area connection in the network connection to reset the IP address.
Any suggestions?

Who is your ISP. You can configure your Router manually.
If your Internet Service Providor is Cable follow this link
If your Internet Service Providor is DSL follow this link

Time caspule only works when connected through my dLink router first

I have a dlink router that was always my network router in my home. I hooked up a time capusle from the lan output of the dlink into the internet input port on the time capsule and it works fine. The time capsule and dlink are both wifi hostpots. When I connect my time capsule from my modem direct without the dlink the LED will not turn green. WHy is this and how do I remedy this.
Thanks
Colin

The easiest way is to "hard reset" the Time Capsule and reconfigure it using AirPort Utility.
Make sure it is connected to the modem first. Remember to power down the modem before changing its connections.
To "hard reset" the TC: make sure it's powered up, then press and hold its tiny reset button and keep it depressed for five to ten seconds, long enough for its LED to flash amber rapidly. Release the reset button. Then, the LED will glow amber steadily for about a minute. Then, it will flash amber, slowly, about once every second or two, waiting for you to configure it with AirPort Utility.
This will not affect your backups. You might need to re-select the TC's backup disk in Time Machine's Preferences, but your existing backups will not be lost.

My nano works when connected to a computer but won't work when unconnected. The battery is full.

My nano won't work when it is not connected to a computer. It won't even reset. If I pull it into my computer it will work and it shows that the battery is full. What might be the problem?

Then that sounds to be the Apple ID that owns this Mac, the OS and any preinstalled apps. Did that Apple ID set the Mac up when new?

HT1363 hi, i use an old but great black photo/video ipod. Suddendly it won't recharge, when connected it emits several clicks and an ipod icon appears together with the apple support email address. I have tried to restore and reset but it won't work. Any

hi i use an old black 60G photo/video ipod. Suddenly it won't recharge, when connected to the pc it emits several cicks in serires and then it shows at intervals a low battery signs and another sign, a sad faced ipod icon with the apple support email address. Any clues and to how I can rescue it? Thank you very much. Alf1962

I am having essentialy the same problem, but my iPod came from a PC and is now on a PC. The person who gave me the iPod didn't give me the wall adapter piece, so I bought a "Griffin" brand that was said to be compatible with this model. When I first plugged it into the wall, the Apple appeared with a bar underneath as though it was loading the new software. When the bar got to the end, the "plug into the wall" icon reappeared, but when I plug it in to the wall now, that icon is the only thing that shows, even after resetting and trying to run diagnostics.
When I doc the iPod on a charger I have or plug the USB into my computer and "reset" it, a battery with a charge icon appears, but there is no "motion" in the icon so it doesn't appear to be charging. The screen eventually goes back to the apple then to the "plug it into the wall" icon. HELP!!! Is is possible the wall adapters isn't the right one? Should I be charging through a firewire cable instead (which I also don't have...)?

Presumably you are connecting it from the *Dock Connector.* In this case, the controls on the car stereo should be controlling the iPod and the iPod's controls are disabled.
If you are using the car's connection interface, consult the car manual to find out how to control the iPod. If you are using an adaptor between the iPod and car, ask the adaptors installer or manufacturer.

Installed Windows 7 on bootcamp but now my wireless mouse won't work when in windows. What can I do?

Installed Windows 7 on bootcamp but now my wireless mouse won't work when in windows. What can I do?

assuming it is an optical mouse (no ball etc.) then there aren't any moving parts involve in the motion detection
so there's a faulty component or connection
from what you describe it could be just a loose/broken connection, so if you know someone familiar with electronics see if they can open it up and have a look

There is a hardware problem. Whether it's worth it to you to have no working phone for 2 months until you can update vs paying for replacement/repair now is a question only you can answer.

Hello Breejumpp,
Try Reset ( No Data will be lost )
Press and Hold the On/Off switch (On top your iPhone) and the Home Button (Button at the bottom of your iPhone screen). Hold both the keys simultaneously for atleast 10 to 15 seconds and you should see an Apple Logo coming up on your screen, once you see the Apple logo you can then release oth On/Off switch and Home button and wait for your iPhone's Home screen.

Will a DVI to HDMI adaptor work when connecting the ipad2 to a projector?

Will a DVI to HDMI adaptor work when connecting the ipad2 to a projector?
I have connected my ipad2 to my HDTV and it works perfectly. I'm trying to connect the ipad to either the DVI port on my classroom laptop or to my Promethean board so that I can mirror educational apps for my students. Does anyone have suggestions on how to make this work?

No, there's not any damage to your MacBook.
