Netstat -a   How do I terminate those connections?

Hi
I am having tremendous problems with my internet. After just a few minutes when restarting my modem & router (I have Virgin Cable broadband) the internet is at a speed of just above 4Mbps on a supposid 20MB connection, the internet latency goes from between 30-40 to over 900 sometimes upto 2000!
I called Virgin who asked me to do a netstat -a on my "dos prompt" on my mac by typing in cmd (god I hate it when they don't support any other OS from windows!!!) from which the results showed there were over 16 IPs with active connections running, they then told me that's the problem and to contact Apple to close the connections which are active "within the computer hardware".
Now, I don't know an awful lot about the terminal interface in Mac and I certainly can't find a simple answer in google about how to close off these active connections.
Can someone lend a hand in whether these are active "hardware connections" and if I can indeed close them?! My speed/latency is awful which is making my experience on Modern Warefare2 terrible!! :o(
Many thanks in advance
Ken

BUT I would not believe what they told you. I have more than 16 open connections on my mac and it's internet is just fine.
Unless you have a buggy application, some of these connections I would bet are normal.
Try rebooting without any startup app, see if it's still happens. If it does, your problem might just be THEIR problem.

  • How do I close all connections to a schema ??

    Hello there,
    I got to drop the existing user. When I tried to DROP USER <user name> CASCADE, it displayed a message that read cannot drop a user with existing connections.
    I have killed all sessions that are open to this schema.. Still I am facing this problem?
    How do I know those connections and how do I close them ???

    Did I say that? Read my post again.
    It says
    First of all, change the password for that user to make sure that no one can connect to that user. Then kill all sessions of that user

  • I want to delete a few contacts, apps, pics etc from my iphone, but when I delete and connect to my laptop they sync and come back again. How can I delete those items and not get them back when I connect my iphone to my laptop?

    I want to delete a few contacts, apps, pics etc from my iphone, but when I delete and connect to my laptop they sync and come back again. How can I delete those items and not get them back when I connect my iphone to my laptop?
    Also where exactly on the laptop is teh data stored.
    Thank you!!

    go to 'Edit' in the menu bar. Then choose 'Preferences'.
    you'll see a pop-up and there's a tab called 'Devices' there. If you click that, you will be able to check a box that says 'prevent automatic syncing for iPods, iPads and iPhones' or something like that.
    Hope this helps
    NB: if you don't even see the menu bar that has options like 'File, Edit, View, etc', first click the black/white square button on the top left of your screen, and then click 'show menu bar'. It should pop right up.
    Good luck

    that's what I am doing... after viewing the report, I call the close method on the window closing event of the container window. but the connection is still open. I had a lot of other issues with my jdbc driver but after downgrading to an older version those issues are resolved.Only this one is still there! Is there any other way to close the connection (like using dbcontroller or etc.)?

  • I backed up my ipod during a windows backup.  how do i find those ipod files(not itunes) in the windows backup files? i've tried searching and i can't find

    i backed up my ipod during a windows backup.  how do i find those ipod files(not itunes) in the windows backup files? i've tried searching and i can't find

    so i plugged in my ipod and it asked if i wanted to backup the files before restoring it. 
    Do you mean iTunes asked if you wanted to backup files before restoring? If so the it is in the location I posted. You don't need to navigate to the backup. Once your restore your iPod it will ask if you want to restore from a backup and present you with the backups made before hand.
    To restore information from a backup, use one of the following methods after connecting your iOS device to the computer with which you normally sync:
    -Click the File menu and select Devices > Restore from Back up.
    Or
    -Open the iOS device's Summary tab. There are two ways to access this:
    -Click the device button in the upper right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper right corner. The device button will then be visible.)
    -From any view in iTunes, click the View menu and select Show Sidebar. Select your iOS device in iTunes under Devices.
    -Click the Restore Backup button.

  • I backed up everything to icloud, wiped my phone, synced to that backup, and only some of my photos are there. How do I get those photos back?

    I backed up everything to icloud, wiped my phone, synced to that backup, and only some of my photos are there. How do I get those photos back?
    I went to apple store and they walked me through this except for the syncing part. I went to sync everything at home and a lot of my photos aren't there. When I scroll all the way down, its just a loading spiral thing.
    Also, now I have new stuff, that I don't want to get deleted.
    Is there some way to put my icloud pictures on my computer as well?

    If the restore process is done, or seems to have stalled, and it didnt' restore your camera roll photos, all you can do is try restoring the backup again.  If it's still restoring, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and tap Stop Restoring at the bottom.  Then go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens again and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud backup and follow the prompts.
    Be sure your phone is connected to wifi and your charger while it is restoring the backup.  You might want to move it closer to your wifi router for the strongest signal possible.

  • I my harddrive with my photo library went bad, but I have the photos on my ipad, ipod and iphone.  How to I get those photos back into iphoto on my macbook?

    The external drive with my photo library went bad, but I have the photos on my ipad, ipod and iphone.  How to I get those photos back into iphoto on my macbook?

    Are the photos you want to send back to your mac on your iPad, iPod, iPhone saved to the camera roll? If you have photos in other albums (not camera roll) share them to the camera roll.
    Then connect your device via USB and lauch iPhoto. You will see your device as a camera in iPhoto.  Import those photos like you would import from a camera.

    My new Mac Air continues to disconnect from WiFi after going to sleep.  When waking it up I have to manually re-connect.  How do I keep it connected?

    I had this problem too and solved it by doing a clean install. After that it was gone.
    This is a drastic method since it takes quite some time to reinstall lion and all your software.
    Thoughts I had why it started working after a clean install are the following:
    It looked like the airport wasn't able to reconnect fast enough before the connection timed out. So what could have prevented my mac from being able to connect fast enough?
    Apps that consume processor cycles. I love what I would call 'System Enhancers', little apps that enhance my workflow (Moom, Alfred, Dropbox, Default Folder etc). I'm not saying that these are the problem, they might be programmed processor friendly, but check if you have apps that consume processor cylcles. It might prevent airport from being able to reconnect quickly enough before it times out.
    Mobile Config profiles. Another thought I had was that I had a mobile config 802.1X profile installed for the company were I worked. It used TTLS to connect to the corporate network. This profile might have gotten in the way.
    And a sidenote...
    Routers with hardware acceleration might also be a problem. My router is a Wireless Gigabit Router 300N WL-351 and has hardware acceleration. As soon as I activate that my wifi connection keeps dropping. It is as if a Macbook Air can't handle that amount of optimisation.
    That's it, hope it helps those who are still having the problem.
    Best, Jan

  • How to choose NIC that connect to Internet

    Hello,
    I am developing VoIP application using Jain-SIP. it works nice in WinXP but when I try it on Ubuntu i got an exception :
    "javax.Sip.SipException InvalidArgumentException"
    after searching it on google, it tells that ubuntu return "127.0.1.1" when I execute InetAddress.getLocalhost().getHostAddress();
    it was lead me to a forum that told a way how to get all interfaces physical and logical address, here is the code :
       for (Enumeration ifaces = NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces(); ifaces.hasMoreElements();) {
                    iface = (NetworkInterface) ifaces.nextElement();
                    System.out.println("Interface :"+ iface.getDisplayName() );
                InetAddress ia = null;
                for(Enumeration ips = iface.getInetAddresses();ips.hasMoreElements();)
                    ia = (InetAddress)ips.nextElement();
                    System.out.println(ia.getCanonicalHostName()+":"+ia.getHostAddress());
                }it works beautifully. but....
    my problem is, if one computer has 2 NIC, let say 1 Wireless connection and 1 ethernet connection, how can i choose one of those connection that connected to the internet ?
    thanks.

    in case when an application start to run, or being installed, we need to configure "hosts" file in etc directory which need a super user priveleged, how can we do that ? Your app cannot solve all possible problems. At some point you must require that a system has certain things and make no guarantees if the system doesn't have it. One path you could take is to add a step to your installation instructions and require that the user verifies that the setup is correct.

    Consider restricting the unauthorized IP address using "deny" or only allow the authorised IP address usign "allow" in the core Adaptor.xml
