Major failure on BT network

I cannot access several Internet since yesterday. They include bing.com, iTunes Store, tesco.com, eBay.co.uk, adobe.com and many more. In any browser on any machine here at the office I get "connection timed out".
Phoned BT just now and they reckon I need to reboot my router and that all these websites are working perfectly fine for them.
However our hosting provider in London have emailed me the following: "There seems to be an issue with BT at the moment. We have had 2 or 3 other customers also on the BT network call in and say that they experiencing the same issues. We have checked on our end and everything seems to be fine on our network."
The issue they speak of is being unable to access certain websites, including our own!!
Is anyone else having a problem?

I'm having the same problems in Cumbernauld. Some sites not loading or partly loading after 5+ minutes.
A chat with a BT support person online suggested there was a known problem with 3rd party websites and that I wait up to 48 hours for it to be resolved!
Annoying thing is that the service status page does not reflect what must be a major issue. Apparently there were 'problems accessing web pages' yesterday which have been 'resolved'.
Even worse is that my missus can't get online to do the Christmas shopping so Amazon might be in danger of going under.

I've had the same problem when I installed the latest version of SQL developer (1.2.1.32.13) on a machine that still had an older, working version. My problem went away when I changed from an IP name to an IP address. on the connection setup window.

Error on start up - Internal failure - A secure network communication has not been cleaned up properly

when i start with firefox 4 beta 6 an error message pops up saying internal failure. A secure network communication has not been cleaned up properly. Please explain what does it mean and how can a secure network be established.

That is [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=588511 Bug 588511]
You should only get that alert once after you start the 4.0 beta version.<br />
Be sure to use a separate profile for that 4.0 beta version if you still use the regular 3.6.x version as well.

Unexpected Call Failures during physical network failure

Our layout:
We have a private network for Mediation Server<->PSTN Gateway traffic. (This is a legacy that we are moving away from.)
We have a multi-node FE Pool. The FE Pool has redundant "corp" NICs using Windows Teaming (~failover) that serves clients and our SIP trunk, but a single NIC to the private network for the PSTN Gateway traffic.
The Mediation Seervice is listening on both "corp" and "pstn" NICs.
What happened:
The PSTN network cable for ONE of the mediation servers ("LyncFE1") was cut inadvertently.
The experience:
Approximately 5 minutes after the cable was cut, "LyncFE1" recognized all gateways were offline. (expected)
Users did not lose connectivity to the server, as the "corp" NICs were unaffected. (expected)
Inbound calls routed around the failure, as the PSTN gateways are configured to do. (expected)
Outbound calls for an indeterminate group of people would fail consistently with 503 errors and the logs clearly indicated no routes available. These users were not all hosted on LyncFE1 (per a get-csuserpoolinfo of some of the affected users).
(NOT expected)
I expected that the Mediation Service on "LyncFE1" would recognize that it had no routes, that other servers (let's say "LyncFE2") did have available routes, and that it would then route outbound calls to the other servers via the "corp"
NIC.
Thoughts?

Hi,
As the available route is associated with Lync client policy. So If you want to use the other route, you need to associate these users client policy with those route using Lync Server Control Panel or Lync Server Management Shell.

4.2 Update Failure. "The network connection timed out"

After downloading 4.2 just before installation the error message pops up:
"The was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone "XXX". The network connection timed out.
Make sure your network setting are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later"
This happens on different machines in different locations (IPs).
What is it and to fix it???

I have had the same problem trying to update to 4.3 on both my iphone 4 and my kids' ipod touches. The problem seems to come after the huge 400-700MB downloads when itunes extracts the software or verifies the download with Apple. This is what seems to get blocked by the firewall.
Turning off Kaspersky Internet security for the duration of the software download and update sorted the problem.
I could not find a different solution. Once it is completed then you can re-enable your security software.
If you are really paranoid about turning off your security software then I guess you will need to mess around with the firewall settings to allow itunes free access through the firewall but it may take some trial and error.

Software update failure due to network problem

I am always connected to the internet via a good connection. However, every time I try to run a software update, I get the following error message
"A networking error has occurred: timed out (-1001). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again."
But my netwrok connection remains good and intact. Anyone able to help me?

One thing you'll want too check is that your computer is pointing at Apple's software update server. Also verify that your firewall isn't blocking port 8088, which is used for the software updates.
To check what software update server is being used, check
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate
Look for the url with port 8088. If it's pointing to Apple, I believe it will look something like swupdate.apple.com:8088. If it's pointing to something else, you can change it back from a Terminal command line:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL "http://swupdate.apple.com:8088/"
(all one line .. line wrap was due to length)

Hard Drvie Failure (twice after network problem!)

Hi I have a MSI K7N2 Delta-L SKT A 8xAGP DDR400 Nforce2 6ch Sound LAN USB 2.0 Motherboard just over a year old. Whilst networking with my laptop the main pc went into blue screen state but as I was able to carry on with my internet connection I left it for about an hour. Upon trying to turn on the next morning it would not recognise my hard drive and it was making an awful noise. I replaced the hard drive and reinstalled windows all ok for the last week (apart from an icon by the clock saying that one LAN connection had limited connectivity issues - my linksys 5 port hub was connected). However last night I again networked but was unable to access the internet on my laptop - this morning the new drive is making an awful noise and I am getting the same disc read errors??????
Is this likely to mean a new MOBO and if so is it possible that the hard drives r ok but something is wrong with the MOBO? Also is it likely that the processor, graphics card and ram r damaged??
Thanks in advance...

The power supply has been upgraded 11 month ago due to the machine restarting after upgrading to the MSI board and quicker processorb with no observed faults. I am running:
Jeantech 400w atx power supply
1 x AMD Athlon XP2500 333FSB 512 L2 Cache Barton Retail Boxed Inc Heatsink & Fan with 3year Warranty
1 x MSI Fx5700-TD128 8x AGP 128MB TV-Out DVI DirectX 9 Retail Box
1 x MSI K7N2 Delta-L SKT A 8xAGP DDR400 Nforce2 6ch Sound LAN USB 2.0 Motherboard
1024mb ram (2x512)
LG DVD rewriter
Plain DVD ROM
Card reader
floppy x 1
160gb Baracuda drive
40gb Maxtor drive
both making bad noises and not being detected at startup by bios
A friend has suggested resetting the bios via the mobo jumper (just gunna check there is 1)
Same fault has happened twice after networking (which had been fine previously) only difference was the blue screen and then the limited connectivity message the second time so i think it is unlikely to be a psu fault as it had been stable for 11 months. More likely to be mobo is my first impression although it has been great upto now.
Thanks

Major problems with Wireless Network

Hi,I currently have a network that has 7 Cisco aironet 1200 devices on it.(2 of which are repeaters)The network has been stable for months untill recently..At random times different waps will just go down. They will occasionally come back on themselves but I usually have to do a power cycle. Also sometimes they will just not accept clients, again until a power cycle.We have 2 main devices that generally have around 15 devices on each. This morning one of them had 25 clients, and the other had 4. Then when I checked later this had been reversed.When the waps go down, there is nothing that jumps out in the logs(to me anyhow) some "Interface Dot11Radio0, Deauthenticating Station Reason: Disassociated because sending station is leaving (or has left) BSS" messagesAny tips on what could be wrong or where to look first?Its doing my head in..Cheers

Are you in a large office complex? Any chance some network admin in an adjacent building/floor just installed a system that can terminate your APs as if they are rogues? Have you ran any tools to look at interference? Have you tried running a packet sniffer?

Major issue trying to network with windows computer via smb

I'm pretty much ready to get rid of osx all together at this point and go to windows 7. I've tried all kinds of tricks for mount/unmounting smb shares, but I still constantly get random lockups...sometimes not even coming out of sleep. Any one else having this many problems with trying to access shares on windows? the worst part is when these crashes occur I can't force terminate any processes only a hard power down and restart fixes it.
any suggestions would be appreciated

That got me thinking. Are you just connecting via the Finder? Maybe try setting up Autofs. I used it with sshfs all the time. Unfortunately, I know little about SMB.
I was looking for a good link and came across this PDF from Apple. I have never seen it before but had done quite a bit of research on autofs. I have to find more of these "Technical White Papers" from Apple.

I have bought a 'brand new' iphone 4 from e-bay. The seller said it was on o2, but it will not take an o2 sim? Tried all of the major networks and it will not take any of them. Seller is very unhelpful and I don't know how to find the original carrier. C

Hi
I have bought an Iphone 4 from ebay. It was listed as brand new and on o2. The phone has never been activated but it won't take an o2 sim, in fact I've tried the majority of the UK networks and it just keeps saying sim not supported please insert the original sim. The seller is very unhelpful and I'm a bit lost now. Can anyone help? I'm an iphone novice, am I doing something wrong?

The only option here is to contract 02 and ask them why the phone won't work. If the phone is supposedly locked to 02, then they are the only ones who can help you. Try contacting them to see.
If they can't help you, then I'm afraid that you have been had on ebay and it is never a good idea to purchase iPhones and anything of an expensive nature there - you can never trust what people say.
You need to contact the seller and either ask for the original sim card for the phone and if the phone is actually locked to 02 or you just tell them that you are returning the phone for a full refund.
If the seller is not being helpful, then you can file a dispute with ebay and ebay will then sort it out for you and you should be able to return the phone for a full refund.
Bottom line: Don't buy an iPhone from ebay and if you want an iPhone on 02, go to an 02 store and buy one - they have plenty in stock - my local branch has iPhone 5's in stock and they still have the iPhone 4's if you want one.

Network reset failure to download movie

I am unable to download already purchased movies from iTunes onto my mac. They will begin to download and then fail and the error message says Failure due to Network Reset. I have contacted Apple twice with no resolution.

Two possible problems.
1) ~~~~~~~~
Check your firewall to make sure Digital Editions is not blocked. Maybe check by (temporarily) turning off firewall.
2) ~~~~~~~~~
There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0 (and 2.0.1). Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.
(You can have them both installed at once if you like.)
Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.
http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/cant-install-digital-editions.html
The forum software is sometimes corrupting the link above. There shouldn't be a blank in 'editio ns.html'. The following redirects to the same page: http://tinyurl.com/diged172
Some people have found ADE trying to upgrade automatically.
It appears (not 100% sure) that if you install ADE2.0 as a new install (not as an upgrade) that your 1.7.2 will continue to run.
Probably best to say no if 2.0.x installation asks if you want to migrate your library.

Lost LAN Connection in MS Exchange 2003 network

Hi everybody.
I have a connection problem which my ICT consultant can't solve or even figure out the cause.
In my company there's a MS Exchange 2003 network. I'm the only one running a Mac (Air bought in early 2011), as the others need to work on Solidworks and need Win machines. In order to connect with email and calendar I'm forced to use Parallels Desktop with Win7 installed to use Outlook and Access for our Internal Self made database.
What is happening is that sometimes when connected through WiFi the server connection is lost, causing loss of work if I had some files open from the server.
Considering that we have some interferences in our area I got the USB Ethernet adapter.
Worse than ****.
When cable connected the connection to server is lost every minute, not only if the Mac goes to sleep, but even during normal work. Unless I "stimulate" the finder every 30 seconds the server connection get lost, sometimes is sufficient to click on the saved preferred positions in the side bar to wake it up, but most of the times if I'm working on files on the server this is not sufficient and the job done is lost.
Also this sometime cause a major failure in the system and I'm forced to shut down the Mac by holding the button.
Any clues?
Thanks

Thanks for the help on making restore points, and on getting Boot Camp 2.1; I recently updated Apple Software Update to 2.1.1, so that's working, and it did suggest BC 2.1 as a downloadable. I'll probably do it manually, though, just to be on the safe side of things, as I don't trust Software Update even in OS X for most things (except to tell me what updates are available; I usually download and install everything manually anyway). Windows Update is a different matter, as I can't get most of the patches it offers by myself (not that I haven't tried--most are available only through the utility).
As for backing up and restoring from a clone on a second hard drive: I can't afford to do that at the moment, as I can't afford the hardware, software, or time needed to prepare a clone backup. And besides, as I said before, I don't do enough in the Windows partition that demands such backup work be done. I use Vista primarily for things I can't do in OS X, with Windows-specific apps.
Still not sure how to go about updating the LAN port driver, or if it even needs to be updated. If BC 2.1 doesn't do it, I'll look up the vendor through whatever link Windows Update provides for me. And I haven't received any word from Verizon about my modem needing a firmware update, but then again I haven't contacted them about it yet, and I'm not sure I need to, or if it really needs to be updated. I'm just hoping that if the connection drops again that it won't be necessary to update or replace the modem, that the problem remains in software. (Of course, I'll take whatever precautionary measures I can, but I can only do so much myself.)

Crashes when running applications from network share - "Windows cannot access the file for one of the following reasons"

Hi,
starting a couple of weeks ago, we get the following error(s) when running applications from a network share. We don't know what causes this, we are not aware of any major changes in our network infrastructure or client/Server configuration. We did upgrade
a lot of machines to Windows 8, but the issue also occurs on older Win7 computers.
We figured out a workaround though: The applications run fine when launching from a FQDN share (like
\\share.domain.Company.com) and only cause problems when running from
\\share directly. They have worked fine for years without FQDN though.
Any ideas?
Error Details (the Kind of error differs greatly):
# 1 #
Log Name: Application
Source: Application Error
Date: ...
Event ID: 1005
Task Category: (100)
Level: Error
Keywords: Classic
User: N/A
Computer: vmDEV
Description:
Windows cannot access the file for one of the following reasons: there is a problem with the network connection, the disk that the file is stored on, or the storage drivers installed on this computer; or the disk is missing. Windows closed the program XYZ
because of this error.
Program: XYZ
File:
The error value is listed in the Additional Data section.
User Action
1. Open the file again. This situation might be a temporary problem that corrects itself when the program runs again.
2. If the file still cannot be accessed and
- It is on the network, your network administrator should verify that there is not a problem with the network and that the server can be contacted.
- It is on a removable disk, for example, a floppy disk or CD-ROM, verify that the disk is fully inserted into the computer.
3. Check and repair the file system by running CHKDSK. To run CHKDSK, click Start, click Run, type CMD, and then click OK. At the command prompt, type CHKDSK /F, and then press ENTER.
4. If the problem persists, restore the file from a backup copy.
5. Determine whether other files on the same disk can be opened. If not, the disk might be damaged. If it is a hard disk, contact your administrator or computer hardware vendor for further assistance.

Hi,
>>The applications run fine when launching from a FQDN share
It sounds like a DNS suffix issue. When this issue occurs, please try to ping share on the client, then check if the corresponding IP address is correct. If the IP address is wrong, please adjust your settings of DNS to make sure that the client can resolve
the share correctly.
If it's very hard to change the settings of the DNS for some reason, as a work around, we can add the entry into the clients' hosts file.
Best Regards.

What are the host network requirements for a 2012 R2 failover cluster using fiber channel?

I've seen comments on here regarding how the heartbeat signal isn't really required anymore - is that true? We started using Hyper-V in its infancy and have upgraded gleefully every step of the way. With 2012 R2, we also upgraded from 1gb iSCSI
to 8GB Fiber Channel. Currently, I have three NICs in use on each host. One for "No cluster communication" on it's own VLAN. Another for "Allow cluster network communication on this network" but NOT allowing clients, on
a different VLAN. And lastly the public network which allows cluster comms and clients on it (public VLAN).
Is it still necessary to have all three of these NICs in use? If the heartbeat isn't necessary any more, is there any reason to not have two public IPs and do away with the rest of the network? (two for fault tolerance) Does Live Migration
still use Ethernet if FC is available? I wasn't sure what all has changed with these requirements since Hyper-V first came out.
If it matters, we have 5 servers w/160GB RAM, 8 NICs, dual HBAs connected to redundant FC switches, going to two SANs. We're running around 30 VMs right now.
Can someone share their knowledge with me regarding the proper setup for my environment? Many Thanks!

Hi,
You can setup cluster with a single network but that leaves you with single point of failure on the Networking front, it is still recommended to have a heartbeat network.
Live migration would still happen though Ethernet, it has nothing to do with FC. Don't get confused, you had iSCSI for storage which used one of your VLAN and now you have FC for your storage.
Your hardware specs looks good. You can set up the following networks -
1. Public Network - Team two or more NICs (based on bandwidth aggregation)
2. Heartbeat Network - Don't use teamed Adaptor
3. Live Migration - Team two or more NICs (based on bandwidth aggregation)
Plan properly and draw guidelines to visualize and to remove single point of failure at all points.
Feel free to ask if you have some more queries.
Regards
Prabhash

W530 WIN 8.1 upgrade Optimus NVidia driver failure

Just upgraded to Win 8.1 and upgraded to the latest Optimus NVidia drivers. Major failure. On reboot, the screen remains blank, occasionally shows a small flashing image on a few pixels,lower left side of screen, occasionally shows the mouse pointer. Able to use thumbprint but still no video access. Seems like it is booting up but can't see anything. If I force bios back to the Intel 4000 only, all works fine EXCEPT MY CAD PROGRAM!
Went onto NVidia site and downloaded their recommendation and it is now booting into NVidia mode except for this:
I am using 8.1 boot direct to desktop (old style win 7) when I hit the windows key into win8 mode, the screen starts flashing and won't stop until I get it back to the win7 desktop.
Any ideas??

All,
We will look into the update for W530 as well. Being a dual GPU system, I'm wondering if we are seeing a variant of what is going on in this thread with S440 / S540 ?
I'm wondering if a Windows update installed a different version of the intel driver and it is not matched?
Can you share what version of drivers are shown installed?
