N8: "Data Use in Home Network" changes automatical...

I have selcted the "Data Use in Home Network"  to be "Always Ask".
But i have no Idea why this option changes back to "Automatic". Some times i could not even browse GPRS data after this change happens in my N8. I have to end up restarting the Phone...
Is there a log which indicates why this is happening??...does any log show if some error happend from the phone internally??
I cant share with nokia care too....as it happens randomly one in a week..some times in a couple of days..!!
Any clue on this..any one had the same problem??

Not exactly but I don't seem to be able to stop it connecting to the network. Even with both these settings set to always ask and switch to wireless set as manual the phone connects to whatever network is there without me asking and stays connected.

  • How do I use my wireless Led TV as a second monitor using my home network without any cables? Both of them are connected to home network

    How do I use my wireless Led TV as a second monitor to my mac book pro using my home network without any cables? Both of them are connected to home network

    Having a gateway there is not going to be a problem. We just need to configure the Time Capsule correctly to work with the 2Wire.
    You will need one ethernet cable to connect the 2Wire to the Time Capsule and a second ethernet cable to temporarily connect your computer to the Time Capsule so that it can be configured.
    The 2Wire you have now should already be broadcasting a wireless network, so once you have the Time Capsule setup, you will actually have two wireless networks there.
    Here's how to configure the Time Capsule to work with the 2Wire:
    Connect an ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on the 2Wire to the WAN (circle icon) port on the Time Capsule.
    Connect another ethernet cable temporarily from your computer to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule
    Open Hard Drive > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click Manual Setup
    Click the Base Station tab below the row of icons to assign a name for the Time Capsule, a device password (write this down) and adjust time zone settings
    Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
    Wireless Mode....Create a wireless network
    Wireless Network Name....Your choice
    Radio Mode....Automatic
    Channel...Automatic
    Wireless Security...WPA/WPA2 Personal
    Wireless Password....Your choice (write this down)
    Check mark next to....Remember password in keychain
    Click the Internet icon
    At the bottom, change the setting for Connection Sharing to "Off (Bridge Mode)"
    Click Update at the lower right and the Time Capsule will restart after 20-25 seconds and you should get the green light.
    You should now be able to connect to your Time Capsule wireless network.
    I'm not clear on whether you have tried to setup the Time Capsule to backup your computer. Post back if you need some info on that. We may need to start another thread for that as that will be a different subject.

  • Trying to connect to xbox live using my home network, I need help.

    I have a xbox 360 that I want to connect to xbox live with, using my home network. Every time I try to connect to xbox live the only part that fails is the connecting to xbox live part. This is how my network is set up. I have Cox Cable as my ISP, a Linksys WCG200 gateway(v2), and WRT54GS(v7). The cable wire is connected to the WCG200 gateway, then an Ethernet cable connects the gateway to the WRT54GS router, and finally an Ethernet cable connects the router to my xbox 360. I have contacted Cox, Linksys, and Microsoft about the situation and they all say the problem is the version of the router. Someone told me that I may just need to change the firmware, but I don't know how to do that. If anyone could tell me what the problem is and hopefully how to fix it, it would be much appreciated.

    u might to open port numbers 88 and 234 on your router
    here's how to open ports
    1: open IE and on the address bar, type in 192.168.1.1 and hit enter
               USERNAME: ( leave it blank )
               PASSWORD: admin ( all in lowercases )
    2: click on the tab " applications and gaming "  then click on the SUBTAB port triggering.
    3: you can just name the application like, box or whatever and fill in 88 for each of the boxes in the first line
    4: same goes to application number 2 but you have to put 2304 for each of the boxes and pls do not forget to enable it, then save settings
    5: Teset the xbox if it's now working.
    6: if still not working, go to the SECURITY tab and uncheck the bock that says, " block anonymous internet requests and save settings.
    7: teset xboox agan and if it still won't work
    8: go to the SET UP tab and look for MTU.
    9: set it to manual and lower down the size by 10.( by default, it's 1500. )→ save settings.
              Hope it will help. goodluck!

  • DPC3941T USB ports -- connecting USB drive for use by home network ?

    Can the DPC3941T USB ports be used to connect / access USB hard drive for use by home network ? 

    Thanks for the prompt reply --- I had hooked it up but could never access it.  COMCAST take notice --- how do I enable these USB ports for home networking use ? 

  • For four years Ive been unable to use my home network as anticipated. I have ADSL connection with O2, airport extreme, three expresses, two minis 10.6.8 and 10.7.3, and two pros 10.6.8 and 10.7.3, and a cinema thbolt display. Id like to use bbc iplayer.

    I am unable to stream video and I lose connection frequently. Ive tried it using wireless connection and with ethernet. Ive tried using the O2 router (%series) as a modem for the extreme, Ive tried using the O2 without the extreme - not poss to extend network but MUCH faster, and Ive tried using a variety of other routrers and modems. My flat is 10m x 6m, there are no other wireless devices within or immediately adjoining except for my wireless landline phone that I have changed three times. Every single piece of my home network has been to the genius bar at least three times and the entire network with all devices has been taken twice. Genius bar have found either no fault or no explanation. Applecare dont seem able to tie their own shoe laces and have been worse than useless, suggesting things like checking a plug fuse (good advice but not relevant). I met a chap socially who turned out to be an apple employee home networking specialist. He offered to look at it and came to my flat. I quote him now: "F**k me, its just not supposed to do tha., Theres something seriously wrong with the system. It's an Apple problem completely". However, despite repeated requests I have not been invited to escalate the issue beyond the genius bar. Enen though everything possible is apple (they dont make a modem for ADSL??), all I get from them is it must be the fault of something else.
    PS Ive had my O2 connection checked tens of times and paid for a bt engineer to check my line 4 times.
    PPS The thunderbolt display was sold to me after I refused one on the grounds that the location of my mini was more than 2 metres from the display, and the salesperson reassured me that the thunderbolt connection was universally available and that  would have no problem connecting the display to my mini 5 metres away.
    I may well not be  too bright when it comes to computers, but with their attitude of there being NO SUCH THING AS A BAD/FAULTY APPLE PRODUCT, ONLY SILLY CUSTOMERS WHO HAVENT WORKED OUT HOW TO USE THEM YET, I wish I will soon see their brand will rot in commercial oblivion ****. I have focused this on home netwrking but that is the tip of the iceberg. However, having invested so much of my life and my money in what I have, please can any of you good people out there show me the foolish error of my simple ways?

    Hi Zac, sorry to hear about your troubles, but that's why us other users are here to try to help in these instances.
    Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this connection drop happens.

  • Ipod Touch Won't Connect to Internet Since Using Airport Home Network

    I searched the site, but can't find anything that helps (or that I can really understand). I previously had no problems with my Ipod Touch using my home internet via wi-fi. Ever since I upgraded to the newest airport, my ipod won't connect, and I've tried just about everything, but nothing works.
    I also have an old PC Laptop that used to connect, but it won't connect to the internet either since I got the new airport.
    Thanks for any help you can give me.

  • The name of my home network changed, now I cannot sync my ipad as it is looking for the old network name, can I change this?, the name of my home network changed, now I cannot sync my ipad as it is looking for the old network name, can I change this?

    The wifi sync button is greyed out and it says that I will be able to sync once connected to <previous network name>
    How can I change the default network I use?

    go to,
    Settings > Wi-Fi > select your new network name and join the network (by entering the password for it)
    you should now be on your new network
    For completeness, you could delete your old network by,
    Settings > Wi-Fi > click on your old network name > Forget Network
    I hope that this fixes things for you.

  • HT1338 my mac book pro is constantly "looking for networks" while connected using my home network and other wifi systems. how can i stop it?

    Why is my Mac Book constantly "looking for networks" while i am using wifi?

    If it is constantly searching for networks every five seconds or so, then it is the bluetooth - wifi problem discussed on other threads. I find that system preferences > network and clicking at the bottom on the 'Show wi-fi status in menu bar' button to switch it off, and then back onto the menu bar, solves the problem. Sometimes on waking I lose wi-fi completely and have to reload, but that's infrequent.
    Hopefully Apple will come up with a solution soon.

  • Connecting a OS X.6.2 Mac to a Windows 7 PC using wireless home network

    I have read and followed all of the recommendations on this topic and still can not get it working. Windows 7 sees the MAC, but denies me access to folders. I have set permissions on the Mac, but still no luck. OS X 6.2 Mac does not see the Windows 7 machine in the Network in Finder. Homegroup has been turned off on Windows 7 machine. The wireless router is a Linksys WRT320N. I do get my internet for the Mac through this router, just can't see other devices connected to it. Also Norton 360 running on PC and the Mac shows up on the network and is set to trusted. Any suggestions?

    You can follow this link how to enable file sharing between your Windows XP and Windows 7 Computer.

  • Unable to access website using home network but able to access using school network.

    Hi, I'm currently on a MacBook Pro running OS X Mountain Lion and Safari v6.0.4.
    As per the title, I'm unable to access particular websites, namely abduzeedo.com and fromupnorth.com, using my home network but when I try to access using my school network, I can access it freely.
    The error message I get is: "Safari can't open the page [website] because the server where this page is located isn't responding"
    I've tried clearing my cache, resetting my IP, deleting the library file (or whatever it was that some people suggested in forums) but it still doesn't work ):
    Any suggestions?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Network based and a-gps, data use tests

    i was trying to find this kind of info, but only found others asking.
    i hope this is useful info for others, especially while roaming.
    skip to the bottom for conclusion,
    this is the process i took:
    i called nokia tech support,
    their phone support his horrible,
    the people on the phone don't actually know anything, and have to look up everything you ask them.
    they were the worst.
    i emailed nokia tech support.
    my message was:
    "i would like to know the difference between assisted gps positioning, and network based positioning. these are 2 of the 4 options on my nokia e66 for positioning methods. i would like to know if network based positioning uses internet data from my service provider to obtain my gps position. i am especially concerned with this function while i'm roaming internationally, as i do not want to be charged for roaming data use."
    in about half hour they responded w/ an answer, and then 45 min after that someone else responded w/ an answer.
    the first response, minus the hello's etc. was:
    "In response to your email, Assisted GPS and Network Based positioning methods generate costs related to data traffic so you will be charged for data use. Only "normal" GPS and Bluetooth GPS do not generate additional costs related to data traffic.
    Normal GPS is quite slow and does not work indoors. Therefore, it is recommended to enable at least A-GPS to get a faster position outdoors.
    Network based and Wi-Fi positioning also allow you to update your position inside buildings, but they cannot be used for navigation."
    the 2nd response was:
    "In response to your inquiry, the difference between Assisted GPS positioning (A-GPS) and Network based positioning is that,  A-GPS uses satellites while Network based positioning is based on information of your cellular network environment. It allows you to update your position inside buildings, but they cannot be used for navigation. Both positioning methods generate costs related to data traffic (unless you have configured the device to use Wi-Fi connection to make the internet connection). The cost may vary while you are on roaming. Kindly contact the service provider for information about data transmission costs."
    i can also respond w/ more questions, but instead did some tests, starting with sitting home, indoors, and eventualy moving to a window w/ lots of sky.
    test 1:
    i enabled:
    integrated gps
    network based
    assisted gps
    opened maps,
    set maps to be offline,
    set default internet access point to my home wlan network,
    closed maps,
    cleared all counters and the log on the phone's communication log.
    opened maps
    there is a pink circle around the area i may be in,
    the icon that would show gps satellite strength, changes to show the cell phone antenna icon.
    but the packet data counter is sending/receiving a total of around 3-8kb immediately, and over the course of time, it keeps adding up, every 1-2 minutes, and it is shown as packet data to/from the access point "at&t internet"
    over the course of ten minutes, it's been about 43kb.
    and i can tell on the phone's home screen that the packet data connection becomes active when it does.
    the maps kb indicator still says 0.0kb, with a line through the double arrow packet data symbol.
    test 2:
    now i exited maps,
    cleared the counters and logs
    i turned off a-gps.
    enabled only integrated gps and network based.
    i open maps,
    the same thing is happening as with the assisted gps on, except i connected to my home wlan once, in the middle of connecting to at&t internet 10 or so times.
    everything else is happening the same.
    test 3:
    i exited maps,
    cleared the counters and logs.
    enabled only integrated gps.
    i open maps, and there is no evidence of packet data connection, or wlan connection.
    nothing is showing up in the logs or packet counters, and there is no pink circle around where i may be.
    if i set maps to go online, w/ my wlan as the access point, or at&t internet, their respective icons show up on maps, as well as the phone's home screen.
    the phone's log show respective connections are made but w/ 0.0kb, and the phone's packet counter, as well as the maps kb usage, say 0.0kb.
    test 4:
    set maps to offline, w/ my wlan as access point.
    exited maps,
    turned phone off for a bit to test gps from cold start.
    turned on phone,
    cleared counters/logs,
    enabled only assisted gps and integrated gps.
    open maps, there's no pink circle around where i may be, just the red dot of where it thought i last was.
    there's about 4-5kb of data transfer,
    then i bring the phone to the window where there's a lot of clear sky, and my location is found pretty fast.
    i know that w/o assisted gps, w/ only integrated gps, it takes a while to get the gps signals.
    i went back and forth to/from the window, and there was packet data use again only once more, not continuously like w/ network based positioning.
    so to conclude my tests,
    setting the maps to be offline, still uses a-gps and network based positioning.
    network based uses a more data, continuously,
    which is the opposite of what i thought, i thought a-gps would use more, so i was using network based on and a-gps off while in canada. whoops.
    using assisted gps uses about 5-10kb, which, when roaming, according to at&t, they charge 1.95cents/kb.
    might be worthwhile for getting a quick gps signal, nothing worse than waiting forever for it to connect.
    the only way to be completely clear of data use is disable network based and assisted gps, or set the phone to offline mode.

    A-GPS: This uses information from cell network to get a rough idea of where you are. It then uses this information to figure out which satellites to look for. Result is a faster satellite lock. So A-GPS uses a few kB of data to get an initial position, but navigation is done using GPS satellites, which does not require ANY data connection.
    Network based: This uses information from the cell network to plot the current position when GPS satellite signal is not available, ie indoors, in a tunnel, etc. Position info derived from the cell network is not as accurate as that from GPS satellites, but serves as a stopgap until GPS signal can be re-acquired. Network based positioning used your data connection EACH TIME the satellite lock is lost. So the amount of data used is dependent on the quality of access you have to the GPS satellites. If you don't lose the connection to the GPS satellites, then you won't use any data.
    The ‘offline’ option within the Nokia Maps app only refers to street, POI, etc searches, NOT to A-GPS, Network based positioning or to connecting with the GPS satellites.
    If you want to navigate without using ANY data connection, set A-GPS off AND set Network based positioning off AND set the Internet option in Nokia Maps to Offline. Do this and you will not use any of your data connection allowance when navigating. There is no need to put the phone into flight mode.
    If I've helped you, you can thank me by clicking the green 'kudos' star on my post. Cheers.

  • Can't connect to my home network

    Ever since I switched to BT I've never been able to access my home network via wifi but I can connect to btwifi with fon on my laptop.
    It's never been much of an issue before but now I've started using my laptop more I would prefer to use my home network which is secure rather than a public one.
    Windows will recognise there is a problem with my network but it's not been able to fix the error and it will only grant me local access to the network.
    I have a 802.11g PCI adaptar in the laptop so that shouldn't be the problem. I have tried a 802.11g USB adaptar that I have for the PC on the laptop and funnily enough that will connect no problem. I don't like using the USB adaptar on the laptop too much for obvious reasons and I'm hesitant to spend more money on a new adaptar without knowing the reason my current one won't connect.
    Any ideas?

    There is a known problem with Sonys. Try this
    It could be that your computer has IPv6 selected. Try disconnecting it as follows:
    Select Start
    In the search field type.ncpa.cpl and press enter.
    In the new window right click on your wireless network connection and select properties
    In “This connection uses the following items” section remove the tick beside Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) then press OK
    Left click on Internet Protocol IPv4, click properties . Check the options to obtain IP addres and DNS server address automatically.
    Once done try and connect to internet.

  • Trying to print from a Windows XP laptop to a Mac Home Network

    Help! I have a home wireless network (netgear) using a DSL line. I have an iMac G4 and an iMac G5 cabled to my wireless router and I have an iBook G4 running wirelessly on the network. In addition, I have an Epson C84 cabled to my iMac G4's USB port. All the computers can print flawlessly to the C84 using printer sharing in OS X 10.4.6. My problem is this: I also have a Windows XP laptop that uses this home network for internet access (which it does with no problem) but I want to be able to print to the C84 printer as well from the Windows laptop. I cannot seem to make it work. I have turned on "Windows" and "Printer" Sharing in OS X preferences and I have also tried loading "Bonjour for Windows" from Apple onto my XP laptop but that doesn't work either although it seems to "see" the printer - but gives me a connection error message and won't print.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.
