New black hub

Been having trouble with disconnections on my Netgear router. Sky are sending me new black hub but I am apprehensive about this after reading on the forum the trouble users are having and there is a lot of bad publicity about this hub. Is anyone actually happy with the new hub? I don't want to go from the frying pan into the fire!

Personally, I never had any trouble with mine, but the majority of my kit at home uses a wired connection.
Wireless was just phones/tablets and the odd laptop, just basic browsing, which was fine.
However, it didn't cope well with high speed streaming (which my son frequently complained about once he discovered the joys of Minecraft videos on YouTube!).
My solution was to use a second, higher spec, router and disable the Sky Hub WiFi altogether.
Ultimately, only you can say whether or not it meets your needs.

HP Photosmart Premium Fax All-in-One Printer-C309a-new black ink cartridge will not print

i just installed a new black ink cartridge (manufactured by HP) when print quality became poor in the middle of a job. it completed the job fine, but when i have tried to print subsequently, only those parts of the document that are in color/greyscale will print. the black is simply absent from the document. the supply level is showing as fine and all diagnostics indicate there is no probem. i have not received any error messages. i have tried turning the printer on/off. i have tried cleaning the printheads. i have tried uninstalling & reinstalling the cartridge. i do not have any additional black cartridges to try to see if that will solve the problem, but as noted above, it did work initially. i am just printing to regular plain white printer paper. i have tried all the relevant steps in the HP troubleshooting document for poor print quality posted elsewhere on this page. nothing has worked! someone else's post mentioned resetting the printer, but did not say how it was done. any ideas on a solution??? thanks!
This question was solved.

To reset the printer, follow these steps:
While the power is on, remove the power cord from the back of the printer. Wait at least 30 seconds, then connect the power cord to the back of the printer, then turn the unit on. That will complete a power reset.
Now, missing black during printing can be a result of a couple of things. If it is only missing say when printing from Word, then the print settings within Word are set to grayscale only (or something similar) which would exclude the black cartridge. If it is from all programs, then it is either the main print settings set to grayscale only, or the printhead/cartridge is clogged up/dirty. If it is not the print settings, then create a print quality report and follow the steps in this document:

How I copied all my Outlook Express data to my new Black MacBook

Hi there!
I just made the jump to the "Apple side" buying a shiny new Black Macbook, and having already got a lot of usefull information from this forum, I just wanted to give my little contribution...
Here follows how I managed to copy ALL my Microsoft Outlook Express messages, settings and accounts from my "old" PC to my new MacBook:
I just installed Mozilla Thunderbird on my PC and let the automated "import" function transfer all my data from Outlook Express; then I installed Thunderbird to the MacBook too (skipping all the setup procedures that start at the first run of the program).
Then, on the "PC side", I located the folder where all the Thunderbird profile data is stored: it is something like "xxxxxxxx.default" (in my case "voakmfhs.default") and is stored in "C:\Documents and Settings\Windows_User\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles"
So it was just a matter of copying all the "xxxxxxxx.default" folder from the PC to the Mac (on the "Mac side" just search for the "Thunderbird" folder and then open the "Profiles" subfolder where you have to copy all the stuff)
The last step is to edit the Thunderbird "profiles.ini" file on the Mac, replacing the name of default folder that was assigned during the installation (which you can safely delete), with the name of the one copied from the PC...
For any further question, feel free to ask
Hope this is of some help!
Ciao for now
Sergio

Trying to download the new Black Ops app and when downloading it says I don't have enough storage space. I made sure I had 1.31 GB of space(like it requires)but it still says I don't have enough space. I even tried to delete more 2.5 GB (I have iPhone 4S)

I was trying to download the new Black Ops (Strike Team) app and when I try to download it, it says I don't have enough storage space. I made sure I had 1.31 GB of space (like it requires) but it still says I don't have enough space. I even tried to delete more 2.5 GB (I have the iPhone 4S) and the app specifically says that is is compatable with iPhone 4S. I even tried rebooting the phone a couple times before downloading, but it still says the same thing.

The app you are trying to download my be a zipped file and more space than 1.3GB. go to settings/general/usage and delete what you no longer want to make more space

Port Forwarding not working on new Home Hub 4

Hi all,
I'm trying to get port forwarding going on a new Home Hub 4, specifically so I can access my Netgear Stora through its web interface on my LAN.
I've set the rules in port forwarding for the following ports:
Port 80 is HTTP Server
Port 443 is HTTPS Server
Port 21 is FTP Server
Port 22 is SSH Server
All these are now open and connect to Stora, which has an address supplied by DHCP.
However, when I check with various online port checkers, none of the ports are open and checking the trouble shooting logs of the BT Home Hub shows that the connection is being rejected. This is a sample of the message that is shown:
IN: ACCEPT [57] Connection closed (Port Forwarding: TCP 192.168.1.69:22 <-->86.141.184.236:22 [184.72.89.72:42894] CLOSED/TIME_WAIT ppp1 NAPT)
What can I do to make port forwarding work? I can't change the IP address of the Stora as I need to get into it via its web interface to do that.
I can navigate directly through Explorer to the files on the Netgear Stora NAS but not through the web interface.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

i think by applying a static DNS i got it working, not 100% sure yet. edit: yep that worked, everyone can connect once again.

Photosmart C7280 All-In-One won't recognize new black ink cartridge

Black ink was very close to running out, purchased a new one and replaced it. Now whenever I try and print something I get a popup that says: "Install new black ink cartridge if available. To continue with other colors, press Continue. Black color will be simulated. Text and photo quality will differ from those printed when using all cartridges. If empty ink cartridge is not replaced soon, all printing will stop. To cancel, press the Cancel button on printer."
I've tried turning it off and back on, taking all the cartridges out and putting them back in, etc. I printed a test page and black prints just fine, but whenever I try to print from Ctrl+P I get that error. How do I solve this problem?

Thank you for your updated information.
Since you are able to print from you computer and the printer isn't indicating this message, then I would recommend uninstalling the software. I will provide a HP document here to help you. (If this printer is connected by a USB cable, then please remove it from the computer.)
Next, please clean your Temp folder on your computer. I will provide a document on performing this step here.
Now, install the full feature software from the HP website here. Make sure you choose your correct operating system; Either 32 bit or 64 bit. I will also provide a HP document on Installing the Printer software; Either USB or Wireless Connection.
This should remove this error message you are receiving. Please let me know if you are still receiving the same message.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

I have a canon printer with a mac computer. For some reason whenever I print something the ink on the page is all green not black like it should be. I put in a new black ink cartrridge but that didn't change anything.Does anyone know why this is happening

You posted in the OS 9 & below forum. What OS X version are you using? What model Canon printer? Canon printers have a test print capability (open the Printer Utility). What happens when you do a test print? Are all the printer cartridges in their proper location? Sometimes when you print "black", the printer uses a mixture of the colors to get "black". In the Printer Utility, check the levels of the other cartridges. There may be one color that is clogged.

Why is my clear case scratching my new black iphone 5?

I bought a clear case from amazon, it seems to have scratched the paint off my new black iphone 5 near the lock button. I bought the case to protect the phone, not scratch it! I was careful with the phone so dirt couldn't get trapped I there so I don't understand why it has scratched? Maybe a soft case would be better?

Return it immediatly.

Printer won't accept new black cartridge

laser jet 2605dn does not accept new black cartridge

There are Black cartridges and Photo (black) that are not interchangable. Some further information that may help identifying the correct cartridge is shown here. Your B209a does not use a Photo cartridge, you need Black.
If you Contact HP they may exchange the Photo cartridges with Black.

Installed a new black ink printer cartridge in hp office jet 6500 e709n and it is not printing out

installed a new black ink printer cartridge in hp office jet 6500 e709n and it is not printing out anything with Black ink. I ran all the diagnostic tests including cleaning the cartridges, cartridge alignment, shut off the printer unplugged it, restarted, shut down computer retarted. All the other colors work except for the black cartridge. I checked the vent on cartridge and it is they way it should be. How can I print with Black Ink? very upset!!!! Have got to get something printed ASAP

I've got the same with a new black ink cartridge. The display keeps alerting that you have to renew the ink. Tha's oke but the printer does not print black/White.
Do i have to replace the collor ink also at the same time?
Does it mean that if you replace black and not the color that it's NOT possible to print b/w?

Fixing a IP address on new infinity hub

Hi All,
For various reasons I want to keep the same IP address on my laptop (wired connection).
So I went to advanced settings/home network/devices and selected "yes" to keep the IP address as the same.
Worked fine at first.
But now it seems to ignore the fixed setting and allocates a new IP address every time. Looking at the device lists there are numerous entries for the same laptop. Some with "yes" selected some with "no" selected.
Have tried deleting the extra entries but still have the same problem.
Anybody else had this problem or know a solution ?
thanks
David

Hi Ectophile,
It was set to receive a DHCP address. Last night I tried with fixed addressing. It works ok , but I've got over ten different OS installs. It worked fine with my netgear adsl modem/router. So I wanted to keep it the same with the new BT hub.
It makes life easier with new installs as most start with DHCP enabled.
It seems that the device list keeps the connected status and on a reboot of the laptop a new address is allocated ignoring the mac address associated with the IP address.
