Lose connection since 'upgrade' with Netgear DG834...

All used to be lovely in our house - ADSL stayed up for months on DG834N - My PC connected with ethernet worked lovely, All the laptops, PS3, WII, PSP, visitors net books and posh phones worked fine on wireless.
Got a crackle free line, get about 3500 down, 1000 up no problem.
Went on holiday around 10th Aug, came back and the dreaded customer migration 'we have upgraded your broadband' email  had arrived!
Since then it disconnects once a day or so, but can stay up for a couple or three days. It is the link from router to internet that fails, all devices wired or wireless fail. The local part stays up, the connection icons on pc just lose their 'little worlds'!
Strange thing is DSL and link lights on router stay green and config page reports connected ok but no device can access the net.
I can re-power the router, can press disconnect then re-connect on the routers config page or press reboot on config page, and it will then reconnect and all devices will be ok for several hours, speed seeming ok.
Not a very bad problem, but my Mrs / son always seem to moan 'my worlds gone out it not connect' at most inconvenient time.
Don't think it anything to with the physical line or wireless - Have had crackly line problems and it caused LEDs to turn amber and flash. All the wiring is secure now. Wireless still connects fine as far as the router, can access the routers page on any machine.
Dont think a load of stuff about wires and sockets be much help, think it something different.
Thanks for your consideration Biffa

Hi Flaming Death
Sorry that is an incorrect statement as you can turn fon /openzone off if you wish
Bt also state you can use any router you wish so sorry your "conspiracy theory " is false and totally unsupported
Yeah because BT would never do something behind its customers backs like

or
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/03/03/openzone_opt_in/
Also, to turn fon/openzone off, takes 48 hours apparently and even then doesnt do it until you hardware reset the router. So stfu, you have no idea.

    So disappointed with IOS 6.  I'm having weak wifi connection since upgrading to it.  Can Apple do something about it? Can you at least reset it to IOS 5.1.1?

    Sorry Jim for the wrong question because I'm getting frustated with my IPAD since I can't use it for surfing internet with a faster speed.  Ipad was very convenient to use until this IOS 6 upgrade.  Tried all the suggestions in the forums but still gets back to weak wifi connection.

  • AFP won't connect since upgrading to Mavericks

    Since upgrading to Mavericks I cannot connect to my QNAP TS-210 via AFP; this means my Time Machine can no longer find my backup disk and no longer works. Anyone else having similar issues?
    I have tried the usual quick fixes:
    Firmware is up to date
    All OS updates installed
    Server reset
    DHCP renewed
    DHCP switched to try manual setup
    IP changed on server and Mac
    It's odd as when connecting to server I can enter my login ID and it seems to be validating it ok but then doesnt connect to the server at all?
    Any suggestions welcome!

    Use a supported Time Machine configuration.
    OS X Mountain Lion: Disks you can use with Time Machine
    "Note: Some AFP disks from manufacturers other than Apple don’t support Time Machine. If your network uses an AFP disk, but the disk doesn’t appear in the list of devices available for Time Machine backups, contact the disk’s manufacturer."
    Your complaint is very common with NAS devices. Some work and some don't. If they appear to work, they may fail upon attempting to restore from the backup, or they may fail every time Apple updates OS X. Given the goal of a backup strategy, using anything other than a supported TM configuration is not an option.

  • Mighty Mouse loses connection since 10.6.8 update

    Hi I have recently installed the 10.6.8 OSX upgrade in preparations for the Lion release and I am having problems with Mighty Mouse losing connection.
    Basically the mouse operates fine until the mouse is static whereby it loses connection, I then have to wiggle the mouse around and click the mouse to regain connectivity, if the mouse remains still for even a second it just drops again.
    I have tried changing batteries, removing both my mouse and keyboard from the bluetooth preferences, adding them as favourites as well as doing the PRAM and SMC resets.
    I only assume the problem is linked with 10.6.8 update because prior to this update the mouse was working without a hitch.
    My keyboard appears to be working without the same problem.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    I encountered the same problem as you report after the upgrade to 10.6.8 on both my family's MacBook Pros. I had no problem with my MM up to that point. Thereafter, the MM would not work I went thru' the same steps as you did to try and overcome the problem. It pairs OK and says it is connected but the MM will not work. If you switch off the MM, a message is received "Connection Lost". The keypad mouse works as does an USB mouse, but no MM despite numerous attempts at resetting, clearing, replacing batteries, bluetooth reset, etc..  I am as baffled as you were and put the fault down to the SL upgrade, but I suppose the upgrade may (somehow) have blown the MM, but it still lights up and says it is connected!!. WEIRD!

  • Vnc, ssh ports intermittently not accepting connections since upgrading to 10.10.1

    Since upgrading I cannot remote access my mac book air 2014. Prior to the upgrade I did not have any issues. I have not changed any networking / firewall settings.
    Sometimes it works, other times the vnc and ssh ports do not accept connections.
    Running nmap on another host on the local LAN reports all ports as being filtered.
    Other times, nmap shows 22, 5900, and the AFP port open, as expected.
    I know there have been reports of wi-fi issues, and this machine is using wi-fi.
    Is it possible that when the screen blanks after a period of the machine not being used, that the wi-fi connection is going into a power down mode?
    I don't see the ports being filtered when I am using the machine, it's only after I've left the house and I try to remotely connect.

    On looking at the secure.log on the iMac with OSX10.6.8, I see these entries at each attempt to scp into the iMac:

  • No broadband connection since upgrade to 20mb

    Since being upgraded to 20mb broadband I cannot get on the Internet. My line tests ok, all the lights on my hub are green, and I have had an engineer visit  and we did a connectivity test, the result showed all ticked except the DNS authorisation. The engineer stated that this was an ongoing problem in our area with a few customers affected. He said the problem has not been sorted out yet and some customers have had no broadband for 2 to 3 weeks with no solution in sight. Has any one had this problem and if so who did you contact to sort the problem out.

    This may be of interest

  • Won't stay connected since upgrade

    Hey gang,
    Got a brand new iTouch last weekend and upgraded the SW to v3.1.2(7D11). Ever since then, it won't stay connected to my wireless at home once it's turned off. Turn it back on and enter in the passphrase and all is good. At work it seems to be fine. Not sure what to look for.
    Thanks in advance
    Toy4rick

    Well, it looks like it's being caused by SSID not being broadcast. As long as I have it broadcasting, all is well, as soon as I disable this, it won't connect after a restart.
    This is my second iTouch, the first one had a bunch of dust appear under the glass and the Apple store replaced it no qualms, couldn't be happier My first iTouch didn't act this way and was running the previous version of software. It wasn't until i got a new unit and updated to this version that the issue started.
    I have 2 other iTouch's in the home with the older software and they don't have any issues with SSID not being broadcasted.
    Any additional thoughts?

  • Itunes store won't connect since upgrade to itunes 8 (vista)

    ever since i upgraded to itunes 8, it won't connect to the store. it says the network has timed out after only trying for like a second. Right when i click the itunes store button, the error pops up immediately. I have vista. When i run a diagnose, it says "Internet connect verified, but then it says "secure link to itunes store failed". how do i fix this? thanks

    iTunes 8 has created a serious problem with usbaapl.sys and Windows Vista, the device driver for the iPhone and possibly for every other iPod. According to my research, about 1/3 of all Vista users who have installed iTunes 8 are experiencing the problem. It caused me to have the dreaded BSOD about five times before I did a full system restore from my backup drive to get rid of iTunes 8 and go back to iTunes 7.7.1.11. The new Genius Bar apparently allows Apple to advertise more songs for you to buy while poorly putting together custom playlists based on your song choice and your iTunes music library. Pandora.com does a better job of creating custom radio stations for you for free than iTunes 8 does using its custom algorithm and your song library. iTunes 8 has now become a giant piece of bloatware. Apple should know better by now after experiencing the debacles of the MobileMe launch and the poor connection quality of the G3 iPhone. Apple now seems to be putting the bottom line ahead of all else including satisfied customers other than Apple's lunatic fanboys. Steve Jobs should know better and kick some *** at Apple's programming department.
    Come on, Apple. Get back to being known for doing things right the first time.

  • Why does my iphone lose signal since upgrading to ios7

    Since I upgraded to ios7, my iphone 5 constantly loses signal.  It does so just about every 10-15 minutes.  I have tried reseting my network settings, I switch to airplane mode, I do a hard reset.  And nothing works.  Prior to upgrading I never had this problem, now its constant.  I am going to try to get a new sim card, but since this only started when I upgraded (almost the exact moment), I dont see that fixing it.  I have to try to resend almost every text message, and safari pages never load. I have even been trying for days to post this question, but finally gave up and used my computer.  I would really appreciate any help

    Perfect.

  • Previews lose edits since upgrade

    Since the 3.1.2 update I'm experiencing an odd problem.
    Previously edited images seem to lose some of their edits, at least in "preview".
    Open the image, at first the edits appear as the image "loads", then when the image completes loading, the edits disappear.
    Prior edits still appear with "dots", so they can be re-applied.
    Yet after I close and re-open the Aperture, they disappear again.
    This behavior is not consistent across images. I haven't found a pattern. old, new, pre upgrade, post.
    Also, a few images (many fewer) have badly distorted previews.
    All I can think of is to rebuild the entire database, but frankly I'm apprehensive about trying that.
    Neither problem ever happened with prior versions of Aperture.
    Thanks in advance for any advice anyone can provide.     //       jim

    Hi Jim.  I don't have much to offer, but since no-one has picked this one up:

    Aperture doesn't have "edits".  It has Adjustments.  I'm being picky -- but for a reason: the only conduit of communication we have is this very narrow straw of typing to each other.  It is important to be specific and accurate 100% of the time.

    What do you mean by "dots"?  How are your re-applying?

    Repairing and/or rebuilding your Library feels dangerous, but isn't really.  Particularly if you have a verified complete back-up, which you should have every time you open Aperture.  So if you don't have one, make one, then follow the officially sanctioned trouble-shooting steps.
    I recommend repairing your Libraries as part of regularly scheduled maintenance (once or twice a month).

  • ITunes 7.0 can not maintain a network connection, since upgrade

    I am stuck in dial up country and recently upgraded to iTunes 7. Until then I was having no problems downloading songs (even though it took a while). Now I am getting an error saying the network connection was reset and to check settings and try again. When this happens I am still online so that is not the problem. I have tried shutting down and restarting, clearing my DNS cache maually, keeping another window open that is connected to internet and closing everthing but iTunes. I also have run the network diagnostics in iTunes and received the following information when the iTunes store connection status failed -Network Connection Information
    Active Connection: MSN
    Connected: Yes
    Online: Yes
    Using Modem: Yes
    Using LAN: No
    Using Proxy: No
    Firewall Information
    Windows Firewall is off.
    McAfee Personal Firewall is installed.
    Connection attempt to Apple web site was unsuccessful.
    The network connection timed out.
    Connection attempt to iTunes Store was successful.

    The network connection timed out.
    I have purchased a season pass to a tv show and a entire album and neither will download. Please help me!! Thanks!

    Ive downloaded the Quicktime installation and so far got quite excited in the hope that this would at least help recover the new iTunes. But alas, iTunes now fails to install at all and an error message reads:
    "Quicktime was not installed properly, please re-install Quicktime and try again"
    I therefore re-installed the Quicktime application repeatedly with limited success with the same error messaging reappearing on each ocassion. It's starting to verge on the point of frustration now as every attempt I make at installing iTunes ends in failure.
    I don't want to give up as I have new tracks that I'm desperate to upload to my iPod which I've not been able to.
