Illegal use of my broadband

On the 11th August rang BT as I had an email on the 9th August saying I had used over 7GB of a monthly maximum of 10GB
Fault was raised, they agreed that it was unlikely we could use that amount in a week. Tech support advised and helped me change the password - I then went on to try and speak to someone about resetting my usage - as it was obvious to all I talked to that someone had been able to access my BT Hub without permission. Went round in circles, different departments, after an hour or so I gave up.
I have rang again today and after 1hour and 15 mins it was still not resolved - the last person I spoke to in tech support said they would put me through to billiing - I said no as that it is where I started and they only wanted to increase my monthly allowance - which would just cost me more........ which is what I am trying to avoid this month. Tech support said in the last week we had used only 1GB - again I said it would be physically impossible for us to use 7GB the first week. I was told I must have given the access code to someone else to use. I said that I had not - someone has accessed my BT hub without my permission. I also said that I should have queried last months usage of around 7GB as we only averaged about 2GB a month with eclipse.This is only the second month with BT and it looks like I am probably going to go over the 10GB, which will count as my first over usage through no fault of my own. Can anyone reset at BT reset my usage before I go over my monthly usage. Thank you. Jacky

Well, as I mentioned before, if it's a HH2 and the rear of it is in view of the public, then every Thomas, Richard and Harry will be able to see the wireless key and make full use of the Internet.
Hi.
Although possible, that's not entirely true. If the user has altered the wireless key, then viewing the back of the hub will not help
But how many out there in BT land actually do change it?
BT only prompt the user to change the default admin password if and when they first access the hub.
At least BT thought about the label design on the HH3, keeping it hidden until needed.
I reckon hardly anyone would change the wireless key to be honest , but I wonder how many leave them in a window ...

Windows 8.1 laptop cannot connect to the internet using USB Mobile Broadband stick.

I bought a new laptop and it came with Windows 8.1 installed. Well, things worked perfectly until I wanted to connect to the internet using my mobile broadband USB stick. I installed the software that came with the stick, and my laptop recognize
the stick but I still cant connect to the internet. The stick workes perfect in my Windows 7 and Windows 8 laptops, but IT DONT CONNECT WITH MY WINDOWS 8.1 LAPTOP. What can I do to troubleshoot this???
HOPE I AM SPECIFIC ENOUGH THOU...

The PC Repair Guy,
If you haven't already, verify that you can connect to the internet through some other means such as Wi-Fi or Ethernet with your laptop to rule out any network setting issues. If you are able to connect successfully to the internet, use that opportunity
to make sure you have
Windows 8.1 Update installed as well as any other applicable updates your laptop may require.
You may also want to check the
Windows Compatibility Center to make sure that your device is compatible with Windows 8.1.
Another possibility is that the driver your laptop is installing for the device isn't the correct one. Check the device manufacturer's site for the most up to date driver they have available for Windows 8.1.
Hope this helps!

I have been using WRT54G wireless broadband router and WU...

I have been using WRT54G wireless broadband router and WUSB54G on my home PC for the last 2 years. It was working fine until recently I encountered serious connection problem.
The WUSB54G cannot connect with WRT54G.
Error message " Cannot assocaite with the access point.
I have checked the followings to try and solve the problem.
1) Refresh site survey the WUSB54G does not show my SSID, but it can show my neighbour'sSSID.
3) When I use my notebook with built-in wireless network adaptor to access wirelss broadband there is no problem at all. I can access my SSID.
4) I have try reseting the WRT54G and changing password but still can not solve the problem.
5) Uninstall and re-install
5) I have installed a new USB adapter (WUSB54GG) thinking that it could be the old WUSB54G is faulty. But still encounter same problem.
I am using Window XP Professional. What could be the problem?
Please provide your professional advice. Thank you.

Hi, Try to update firmware of router. You can get latest version from www.linksys.com/download, Hope it will help you

you have used a method that was implemented in JRE1.2 -- IE's native JVM 1.1.4 or 1.1.5 . You can do one of two things:
1) convert your html file to make it use a new Java plug-in, or
2) change your code to call a comparble method that is available before 1.2

Illegal use of keyword "SELECT"...

Hi,
I am new to TimesTen and using version 11.2 with Hibernate.
I get the following error while running my application--
*01 Feb 2011 12:03:29,201 [WARN] org.hibernate.util.JDBCExceptionReporter: SQL Error: 7025, SQLState: 37000*
*01 Feb 2011 12:03:29,201 [ERROR] org.hibernate.util.JDBCExceptionReporter: [TimesTen][TimesTen 11.2.1.7.0 ODBC Driver][TimesTen]TT7025: Illegal use of reserved keyword "SELECT", character position: 459 -- file "ptSqlY.y", lineno 8158, procedure "reserved_word_or_syntax_error"*
Would really appreciate some help as tyo how to fix this problem.

I've spoken to various folks today about this. I'm not a Hibernate / TT dialect expert by any means. However, this SQL is a (sort of) documented restriction in TimesTen. This usage of SELECT is a 'derived table' and, unlike Oracle and many other databases, TimesTen currently only supports these in the FROM clause but not in other places such as, here, a projection list.
So, it's not a bug but a limitation of our current SQL implementation.
With regards to where it's coming from, based on the info that is provided, we think that the source of this SQL error is not directly from Hibernate or from the Hibernate dialect class that the application uses. We think this scalar subquery in the select list is defined in a Hibernate mapping document as something called a derived property.
In Hibernate, Java object fields are usually mapped to table columns using a property element within the hibernate-mapping element like this:
<hibernate-mapping>
<class name="com.timesten.tptbmas.Tptbm" table="TPTBM">
<composite-id name="key" class="com.timesten.tptbmas.TptbmPKey">
<key-property name="vpn_id" column="vpn_id" />
<key-property name="vpn_nb" column="vpn_nb"/>
</composite-id>
<property name="directory_nb" column="directory_nb"/>
<property name="last_calling_party" column="last_calling_party"/>
<property name="descr" column="descr"/>
</class>
</hibernate-mapping>
This is the usual case, however, it is also possible to map Java object fields to 'derived' values from the database table. These 'derived' values are expressions in the select list instead of simple column references.
A 'derived' property is defined in the property element using the 'formula' attribute.
For example:
<property name="descr" formula="'VPN ' || TO_CHAR (VPN_ID) || ' extension ' || TO_CHAR (VPN_NB)"/>
The value of 'formula' is any valid SQL expression that can appear in the select list.
Our belief is that you are defining a scalar subquery for 'formula'. For example:
<property name="descr" formula="(SELECT COUNT (*) FROM DUAL)"/>
And this generates the error when executed against TimesTen.
The solution is to rewrite 'formula' using a select list expressions that TimesTen supports - or change things to avoid the need for a derived property in the select list.
If this doesn't solve it, it's probably best to log an SR so we can obtain various files from you that we would need to look into it further.

Illegal use of LONG

I create on table say "TAB" with a column as long datatype
create table tab
(name long);
now i need to create another table structure similar to "TAB" say "TMP_TAB"
create table tmp_tab
as
select * from tab;
But this gives the following error..< ORA-00997: illegal use of LONG datatype >
Can anyone please explain me the reason for the following error?

If you have Oracle 9i, then
Quick and correct solution: Don't use LONG - Datattype !
It's obsolete, use CLOB instead.
If LONG- Datatype is inevitable (why ?), then
declare
v_sql VARCHAR2(32767);
begin
select dbms_metadata.get_ddl('TABLE', 'TAB', 'SCOTT') INTO v_sql
from dual;
v_sql := replace (v_sql, '"SCOTT"."TAB"', '"SCOTT"."TMP_TAB"');
execute immediate v_sql;
end;
/but it's a bit tricky ....

Illegal use of LONG datatype

While I was insert a rows into the same table I am getting an error. I am having one long column in table list. I am getting following error while I was inserting a row.

Using 3G cricket broadband to connect Wii to internet??

I really don't know what I'm doing, can anyone offer any advice?
I'm trying to connect our Wii to the internet using my Cricket Broadband 3G USB modem, plugged into my MacBook. I've tried to create a network with internet on, and it won't work. Will not find the connection, even though the signal is full. The Wii can see my computer's network, but will not connect.
Is there something I'm missing, or doing wrong, or does anyone have any other way of doing this?
Thanks in advance,
Angelique

To gain Internet access for the MacBook Pro, you will either need your own Internet service provided by an ISP or access to another Wi-Fi network that has Internet service.
Your MBP has a built-in wireless adapter, called an AirPort Extreme Card. This adapter is able to connect to just about any Wi-Fi network available today.
If you opt to get your own Internet service, most ISPs will provide you as a minimum an Internet modem. Some also offer a wireless version of this device. For those that do not, you will also need an Internet router (wired or combination wired/wireless) in order for your MBP's wireless to connect.

I just purchased a MacBook Pro and I can not use my Clear broadband.

I just purchased a Mac pro book and I can not use my Clear broadband. A message pops up saying the operating system is running in 64 bit mode . Please switch to 32 bit mode. How do I swich the mode and will this cause problems. There must be other MacBook Pro operators that use Clear broadband as their internet connection.

Never heard of them but I Googled and took a look. Seems as if they offer either a USB modem or a 'home' modem - which do you have?
If you're on a newer Mac (and I see that you are) and running Mountain Lion you cannot start up in a 32-bit kernel. I'm not sure if thise is directly related to the question, actually, as some applications will actually let you 'open' in 32-bit mode. If you're using an application that runs the modem software, try selecting it and doing a "Get Info" (Command-I) from the Finder and see if there is an option to "Open in 32-bit mode".
Good luck,
Clinton

Error "Illegal use of 1PC resource in transaction" with Websphere 4.0

Hello All:
I am developing with the webpshere application developer 4.0.0 old version because the proyect requirements.
I am connecting with jdbc driver to an Oracle DDBB.
I use the OracleConnectionPoolDataSource driver.
When i try to modify or enter new data at the DDBB at the console appears the error at the topic:
Illegal use of 1PC resource in transaction
I have only one database set with that driver and i think that i use only one instance of the DDBB.
I have been looking at documentation and inet and this type of error appears when you try to use two instance of the same database or one instance of two diferent databases at the same time with an 1PC (one phase commit) driver. And it does appear that is the case.
I have found at google the following link at the IBM webpage:
http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=0&org=SW&doc=4000986
that refers to my error and offers an efix for the websphere application server. I have tried to aply the patch but it doesn't aply well.
Can someone who has used or is using this version of the websphere help me with this error please?

I just figured this out on my own. After looking again at the SQL Server views, I noticed they all still had the text column selected in the view even though we're not importing the column into the OWB repository view definition. I recreated all the views w/o the text columns and re-validated the maps. Problem solved.

Illegal use of LONG datatype error message when i create materialized view

Hello to all
I want create read only materialized view replication environment two of our tables have LONG datatype when i create materialized view against on them
I recieve this error message
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW MDB.TOAD_PLAN_TABLE TABLESPACE aramis REFRESH FORCE WITH ROWID AS SELECT * FROM MDB.TOAD_PLAN_TABLE@arahisto
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-00997: illegal use of LONG datatype
00997. 00000 - "illegal use of LONG datatype"
Do you know any resort solution for it?
thanks

You can not use longs in materialized views over a database link, you can however take a part of a long over to a materialized view.
I have gotten this to work in the past l had to create a PL/SQL function that you can use to extract the character data from the long column and use that to
as part of the function you will need to pass in the columns of the table that will identify the unique records so you can pick out the long column
example function
-- you will need to make sure this funtion is in the remote location as you can not select longs accross a DB LINK.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION MDB.TOAD_PLAN_LONG_CONV
(pass in the primary key columns for the table)
RETURN VARCHAR2
IS
v_long VARCHAR2(32767) ;
BEGIN
BEGIN
-- need to select the long column into the PL/SQL variable
SELECT long_column
INTO v_long
FROM MDB.TOAD_PLAN_TABLE
WHERE key_columns = passed columns ;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
IF SQLCODE = '-01406' THEN
NULL ;
ELSE
RAISE ;
END IF ;
END ;
RETURN SUBSTR(v_long,1,4000) ;
END ;
Then when you create the materialized view utilize that function on the long column.
create or replace materialized view MDB.TOAD_PLAN_TABLE TABLESPACE aramis REFRESH FORCE WITH ROWID
AS
SELECT column1, .... columnx,
MDB.TOAD_PLAN_LONG_CONV@arahisto (primary key column list) as long_column_name
FROM MDB.TOAD_PLAN_TABLE@arahisto ;
See if this will work for you? Keep in mind however this solution will not get the entire long column only as much as a PL/SQL variable will hold of it.
