My Home Hub Homepage has disappeared?

Hello!
Recently I tried to access my Home Hub Home page via server at 192.168.1.254 and getting a "The connection has timed out "The server at 192.168.1.254. is taking too long to respond.""
Has BT changed it's HH address? Why can I not access it?

bthomehub.home does not work and 192.168.1.254 should work anyway as its the ip address.
Hi.
Are you using a wireless connection or wired ? Have you tried a different browser ?
It's possible that some form of local security product (e.g firewall or AV) has interfered.

After downloading V. 5, my Fast Dial homepage has disappeared and I can't get it back??

After downloading and installing V. 5 my Fast Dial homepage has disappeared from the opening screen. All of the webpage logos are gone, and the opening screen is blank. I have not been able to restore the Fast Dial homepage. How do I restore the Fast Dial homepage with all the logos?

This does not help. The checkbox is checked. The Downloads window is listed in the list of windows in the Windows menu, though it isn't shown in the set of windows displayed by Exposé when I display only the Firefox windows. Somehow it seems to exist as a non-appearing window.

The Home share icon has disappeared

I Have had apple TV for a week now, yesterday the home share icon dissapeared from the top of the page on my MAC air. I can stream Music and share photo's with Pioneer TV but cannot share anything viewd on my Mac. Apple tv is otherwise working fine ? Any help appreciated.

Hi oggy60,
I recommend checking out this article of troubleshooting steps for when the AirPlay icon is missing:
Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4215
The icon will only appear if your device or computer is logged onto a Wi-Fi network which has an AirPlay-enabled recipient, such as Apple TV (2nd generation or 3rd generation).
If you are still unable to see the AirPlay icon, try one of the following steps:
Verify that your AirPlay-enabled devices have the most up-to-date software or firmware.
Verify that your iOS device has Wi-Fi turned on. Enable Wi-Fi on your iOS device by going to Settings > Wi-Fi.
Verify that all your AirPlay-enabled devices are logged on to the same home Wi-Fi network (check the home network names on your devices to confirm).
If trying to AirPlay, or AirPlay mirror, to your Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation), ensure that AirPlay is enabled on your Apple TV as well. You can enable or disable AirPlay on Apple TV in the AirPlay menu: Settings > AirPlay
Check Internet or network connectivity on all affected devices.
Temporarily disable firewalls (both network and local) and security software. Security software and firewalls may block ports that AirPlay uses to stream content. You can often resolve issues with security software by updating, correctly configuring, or uninstalling security software.
If attempting to use AirPlay from a third-party app or a website from your Safari app on your iOS device, confirm that the app or website is AirPlay compatible (refer to the developers of the app or website for additional information).
I hope this helps!

How do I re-install the home toolbar, it has disappeared!

I updated my version to use facebook and since then I have no toolbar. I loaded yahoo as my homepage and there is no toolbar on that either

Hit the '''Alt''' key ''(Cmd for Mac)'' to show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark.

Home Hub 5 - does not seem to broadcast 2.4ghz ban...

Hi, I have Infinity with a HH5 and have been having wireless connection problems with certain devices (mobile, laptop WiFi radio). Following recommendations I have performed a factory reset and set both bands to now have separate SSID's. Nothing I have can see the 2.4ghz band (even my 5ghz devices which I assume are dual band). My Blackberry Curve 9360 is only 2.4ghz so cannot connect. I have manually entered the 2.4ghz settings into more than one device but that does not work either. I fired up a Home Hub 2 and that gets seen. Any ideas anyone??
Thanks in advance, Graham.

2.4GHz disappearing on HH5 has been onging for many users for some time:-

https://community.bt.com/t5/Other-Broadband-Queries/HH5-2-4GHz-Wifi-stops-working-once-per-day/m-p/1...
BT is (or should be) aware of the problem, so we just have to wait for a solution.

Wifi connection issues with Home Hub 5

Hi can any body help because I am starting to get very frustrated with the Home Hub 5 and it's wireless connection.
infinity 2 was installed at my house in the beginning of September, everything worked Ok for three weeks then for no apparent reason the hub kicked out all of my wireless devices (phones, kids iPods, tablets etc) at 6:45 one morning. When I got home from work I rang BT and was told to perform a Pin reset. This seemed to work but less tham 48 hours later at exactly the same time in the morning the hub kicked out all of my devices again, this time I just pressed the restart button on the top of the hub and everything reconnected but the Wifi range within my house had dropped. A few days later the hub kicked all my devices out again (each time it has done this the light on the hub has remained blue showing it is supposedly working OK)
One evening this week the hub of its own accord cycled through all the colours of lights indicating problems and that it was restarting. Today at 10:15 the hub kicked all my Wifi devices out again. I have contacted BT every time this has happened and told them about the poor range of the Wifi signal.
I do not want to be restarting/resetting my Hub every couple of weeks i need a permanent solution.
One of the reasons I switched from TalkTalk to BT when fibre became available was the fact that the Home Hub 5 was supposed to be the best provided router by any of the networks, being the only one that is an AC class router. The thing costs £130 if you want to by one. Quite frankly the £60 TP-Link dual band router I bought when I was with TalkTalk had a better range and was more stable. I would switch back to that if I knew BT's router settings (but they like to keep that a secret)
I really am beginning to regret switching from TalkTalk. Please someone restore my faith in BT.
Sorry for the lengthy rant but I hope you can understand why I've ranted for so long.
Nick

Hi imjolly
Sorry its taken a while to reply to your post.
I wanted to try BT's latest attempt at a solution before i tried your idea.
Since your reply the Home Hub 5 has dropped the Wifi connection to my devices another three times.
The second time less than 30hours after BT's so called fix, which was to make sure the 5Ghz channel was not syncing with the 2.4Ghz channel. Tonight it went again and BT's response was to take the router out of smart channel selection and manually select channel 9,6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 36,40,44 or 48 on 5Ghz. Well I havent even bothered with that, if the prats at BT would look at their records they would see they have already suggested that.
This HH5 is the most unreliable piece of garbage i have ever had the misfortune to use. WHY OH WHY did I leave TalkTalk
I have tonight tried your solution. Fingers crossed that this works.

BT home hub 4 wireless connection issue on the Xbo...

Hi all,
It has been flagged to us that there may be an issue when connecting an Xbox 360 to the new BT home hub 4.
As many of you are aware the new BT home hub 4 has dual wireless bands broadcasting in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz range.
It seems that when connecting an Xbox 360 wirelessly to the hub 4, the Xbox will state that there is an error, like the one below.
“There is more than one network in range that has this SSID, please change your router SSID before proceeding”
This issue seems to be due to the fact then when the Xbox scans for the available wireless networks, it sees both SSID's and insists that one of them must be changed in case of a conflict.
This is an Xbox 360 issue and not a hub 4 problem
When Xbox 360 was released some 8 years ago dual band routers were very uncommon; so the Xbox has not been setup to deal with this type of connection.
To correct this issue we have some steps that you can follow so that you can connect to the hub. You will need to log into the BT home hub manager and change the SSID on the 5 GHZ band being broadcasted from the hub.
Steps to do this are as follows…….
Log in to the Hub 4 in the normal manner setting up a new password or using the custom password that has been setup by the customer then navigate to the Advanced Settings
Then select continue to advanced setting
Then select wireless
Then select 5GHZ
After that you will need to change Sync with 2.4 from yes to NO
After this has been done you will then be able to change the SSID of the 5GZ band adding a number or a letter to the end
After all this has been done you will then need to click apply to save the changes
You will now be able to connect the Xbox in the normal way using the default wireless key

Try changing the wireless channel in the hub. Enter 192.168.1.254 then go to wireless switch to manual and try another channel. You can try downloading inssider3 which will show netwrorks and their channels round about you

Home Hub 3. Constant connectivity loss. Event log ...

Trying to get any kind of service out of my BT Infinity provision nowadays is like trying to arrange a tsunami in a desert.
Time after time after time after time, the Internet is working normally but then a page refuses to refresh and attempts to open another website result only in 'page not found' even though the Internet-connection icon is glowing steadily in the tray, and when I ask Windows to check on things, it reports that no problems have been found and the connection is working normally.
Except, of course, it isn't. I am not a technical expert and therefore haven't much of a clue where to start with this. My Vista OS runs with Panda Cloud AV and Malwarebytes PRO and Windows Firewall, all three of which have always played nicely. Prior to switching to BT Infinity, I had 'ordinary' BT broadband via a Netgear wireless router. The service was trouble-free.
This morning, I decided to delve into BT Home Hub Manager to re-set to factory default. That in itself took some doing because clicking on the Firefox bookmark got me nowhere at all: I had to sit here and wait for 10 minutes before the Hub page suddenly appeared as if out of nowhere.
I found in the event logs a seemingly unending chain of firewall related reports. Rather than read 'em all, I just hit re-set and whoa-hey, after a 5 or 6 minute wait, everything was fine and dandy again. . .
Until, 20 minutes later, it wasn't. Despite the re-set, Internet connectivity was shot to pieces. I'm on Amazon UK and click to open a new page in a new tab: Page Not Found. On the BBC News website, click on a link to open in a new tab: Page Not Found. Reload any of those exisdting, open pages and the reload circle just spins and spins until. . . Page Not Found.
Unfortunately, I can't make head nor tail of the log reports in the Firewall section, but typically they read:
IN: BLOCK [16] Remote administration
BLOCKED 1 more packet [because of Remote Administration]
IN: BLOCK [9] Packet invalid in connection
BLOCKED 4 more packets (because of Packet invalid in connection)
IN: BLOCK [9] Packet invalid in connection
BLOCKED 20 more packets (because of Packet invalid in connection)
BLOCKED 40 more packets (becuase of Packet invalid in connection)
And so it goes on. . . and on. It's not even clear to me if the Home Hub is doing the blocking anyway, but if it is, then I can't begin to figure out why websites like Amazon UK, BBC News, Speedtest and even Google Maps should be BLOCKED.
Help appreciated. . . always assuming, this post actually gets through -- I've no idea if this page has gone down or not, because though it's on-screen, that no longer means anything at all.

Thanks, Ray. Just managed to get back on here, there's been virtually no connectivity at all. One odd thing has been that the Home Hub Manager has opened OK. But it is no longer in agreement with the computer about whether or not connectivity exists. For example:
1) Click on disconnect in HH Manager, and it reports that the task has been achieved and the button changes to 'connect'.
But no disconnection has occurred. The Internet icon is still in the tray in its 'connected' state. And it's possible to go on the Net and briefly open up a website that isn't in the FF cache. But then everything fails again. Alternatively:
2) Click 'disconnect' in the tray control and the icon changes shows a bid red x. But the HH Manager doesn't agree. It continues to report that the computer is connected to the Internet.
I'm baffled and wearied. I'll have to relocate the Infinity set-up from downstairs to where this computer is; I'm assuming, I leave the modem in place (the new white flat thing the engineer brought when he installed Infinity)and just disconnect the black HH3 and brin g it upstairs and plug it into the PC?
Thanks for your help, much appreciated.

Home Hub Phone

Didn't know whether to put this in here, or ordinary BT Phone area, so please forgive me if its in the wrong one
My Home Hub Phone has stopped working, doesn't ring when dialled, i cannot dial out from it, it appears in the manager as connected/registered.
Have tried the following things....
switching phone on and off
deleting and re-registering phone
restarting whole Home Hub
all done, and phone re-registered on system afterwards, but nothing.
Even when i dial a number on it, then go to hit the green button to send the number, it wont even attempt to dial.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

yes - its not easy to get the cover off a 2.1 phone is it??? - Anybody got any tips ??
Garfield - I have just noticed there is a reset facility on the menu/settings /option 9.
There is a handset settings reset or full reset. Might be worth trying the full reset if you cant get the cover off

Put Home Hub 5 in another socket - flashing red

Hello
Before we moved into our home, the upstais office was used as the main socket for the BT infinity which the previous occupants had. This socket is the MK 1 socket I believe.
When we moved in, the BT engineer fiddled around and put one of the dual MK 2 sockets in the kitchen and put the home hub into that one. I have now decided to move the hub upstairs the older socket, but as you can guess, it won't work.
There is a dial tone and the phones in this socket work fine, but the home hub 5 has a steady orange light and the little broadband light is flashing red, indicating no broadband.
As someone who knows little about the workings of telecomunications in a home, I really would appreciate some advice on what the problem is, and how to solve...

Other occupants will be connected using wireless, or broadband extenders.
The home hub is in the best place, to ensure you get the best connection speed. I would not attempt to change anything, and it would cost you £130 if you called an Openreach Technician in to change things, as the way its been installed, is the correct way.
You could end up with a very unreliable broadband connection, as the extension wiring would interfere with the signal.
If the wireless signal upstairs is not strong enough. Then there are some solutions on this page.

Do Not Wish To Use BT's Home Hub 4 After Infinity ...

Hi
I am due to have BT Infinity 2 installed next Thursday 1st August and want to prepare as fully as I can in readiness for the visit.
Right now I am with Sky Unlimited Broadband getting 13.5 down and 0.7 up. I am promised at least 58 down and 17 up - we will see My Sky Router currently operates in "Modem only mode" and feeds my own router, a Netgear WNR3500 which serves my house well for both ethernet and wifi.
What I require from the Engineer's visit is for him to do whatever he has to with the "Master Socket", and swap the BT Modem for the Sky one and continue to utilise the WNR3500. i.e. I'd rather not use the Home Hub 4 router if at all possible. The Home Hub only has 1 gigabit ethernet outlet whereas my Netgear router has all 4 sockets enabled for gigabit lan. Indeed I have a further 4-port gigabit switch linked into the Netgear for other device useage.
So can a simple swap of the modems suffice?
Will the engineer need to tinker with the Netgear's settings - if so what will he need to do please?
I don't want the Netgear router's settings disturbed if it can be helped as they have been set up with many devices (ethernet and wifi) in mind and I seriously do not want to have to mess with them post Infinity 2.
Can anyone shed some light please on whether this will be possible (I believe it can) with some details as to the settings that need to be made to the Netgear router for it to operate alongside the Infinity 2 modem please.
Many thanks in anticipation of advice

Hi all - thanks for your replies.
Yes I am fully aware that it is a 2-box installation and that the BT Engineer will fetch an Openreach modem with him this Thursday to swap with the Sky one.
I am just concerned that with 2 x media players, 1 TV, 2 Blu ray players, a PS3, 2 x servers, 3 x mobile phones as well as 2 x desktops, 1 x Sky box and 4 laptops in our household, all networked either by ethernet or wireless, that any tinkering with my existing router or network settings, could knock one or some of these devices out.
I agree that maybe it could be best for the engineer to install the HH4 in the first instance - indeed I would like to see if the wireless coverage is better than my Netgear Router's. To be fair to the HH4, the only thing making me want to stick with the Netgear is that the HH4, like most modems supplied by internet providers, is not fully equipped with 4 x Gigabit Ethernet ports. My Netgear provides Gigabit Ethernet to 3 separate rooms, all Cat-6 cabled and when Streaming High Definition - lets say a Blu ray image 3D with DTS HD Master Audio it is imperitive that I have Gigabit Lan ports. There is a debate as to whether T/100 ports will suffice - the maximum bandwidth I have noticed playing anything is around 85mbps, which in theory, should work with T/100 ports but I think I will feel easier with Gigabit ones.
It will be cool to try out the HH4 though as I have heard good things regarding it's wireless coverage. Our house is large and in one upstairs room wifi is "hit and miss" - if for example you get a connection that is good but it can easily disconnect - extremly frustrating when watching catchup TV! I have tried with a "Wireless Extender" but this cuts down the speed. That said with a possible 58mbps on tap with Infinity, the Extender's ovehead will still leave a sizable speed.
So in summary as long as the Engineer doesn't tinker with my PC's settings - but I believe BT state I must make my PC available (what for?) - then I am cool with the initial installation of the HH4.
Problem is I cannot make the visit this Thursday as I am working, so my daughter needs to be taught a few things so she can understand the Engineer and relay back to me. I have to tidy things up too lol! The floor of my study where everything will be, including the existing and new master socket, is a right mess so I will start tidying up later.
So finally please assure me that my network will not be affected in any way and when I disconnect the HH4 and substitute the Netgear Router, all I need to do is amend my router's Basic Settings to provide a Username/password login as mentioned above and to switch to "OTHER" (Internet Type), which will place the Netgear in a position to accept a PPPoE signal from the modem.
If I have missed anything please let me know.
Thanks again for taking the time and interest in reading this thread.

You can register most DECT portable phones against the home hub bas station, if that is what you are trying to do.

NAT TYPE 3 on PS3 using BT HOME HUB

Recently I have noticed that my NAT Type has changed from OPEN to STRICT on my PS3. This is causing problems when connecting to online games. Quite often I will not be able to connect to game, friends will not be able to connect to me if I am host and also I get signed off the PSN network randomly. This has only started happening recently.
I have read about this on other threads and it appears to be a problem with the BT HOME HUB. I have the older white version (not sure what model type).
Can anyone advise if BT intend to address this common problem with connecting to online games through a BT Home Hub?
It would appear that obtaining NAT Type 2 from NAT Type 3 can be quite a tricky process. Again I would be grateful if anyone has any advice on how to do this and whether ti is worth trying.
If this issue is not resolved soon I may have to consider if I will renew my contract with BT as it would appear it is a recent upgrade to the BT Home Hub that has caused the problem.
I did not have any major connection issues until recently.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

try this mate,it was for my old bt205 but when i got my first hub i had to use these settings also.oh and another 1 to look for is in your hub settings 192.168.1.254 then go in to advanced settings and look at your network ( have your xbox on ) your hub should list the things connected to it,now pick the xboxlive from the dropdown box and pair it up this should always give you open nat,if it goes strict again unplug router/hub power line for 2 mins then reboot and reboot your 360.
