No Web Pages on WRT54GL - Big Mystery

Here’s a good one for someone to try to figure out
Issues
1> Unable to view web pages on x2 PC's
2> Unable to remote desktop from PC no1 to PC no2 but can do this the other way around.
3> Unable to access the router’s config pages locally at http://192.168.1.1
Current Set-up
PC no1 = Win XP
PC no2 = Win 2003 Server
Cable DSL - with Virgin Provider - Internet port on the router
Router = Linksys WRT54GL
Ø       Port 1 – PC no1
Ø       Port 2 – PC no2
Ø       Port 3 – HP Printer
Ø       Port 4 – Nothing
I bought a WRT54GL a few days ago, set this up with no problems. I connected the DSL to the Router, then PC no1, then Pc no2, then printer. Got internet access & local network connectivity on all PC's.
Then my power supply blew up on PC no2. I upgraded the motherboard & replaced the PSU. I then tried connecting this back onto the network through the router. No web sites through Internet explorer. Just "This Page Can Not Be Displayed" I also tried Opera & Firefox browsers & ran the internet connection wizard.
I turned the router off & tried setting everything up again but now I have issues with PC no1 not being able to see web pages as well
I tried browsing to http://192.168.1.1 (routers config pages) on both PC's but I get "This Page Can Not Be Displayed". I can ping 192.168.1.1 fine. I turned DHCP off on PC no1 & gave it a static IP of 192.168.1.103 & gave PC no2 192.168.1.104 Still no luck.
Now here's the weird thing. I can ping each PC from one another but I can only remote desktop from PC no2 (server) to PC no1 (Win XP). If I try to do this the other way around it just takes forever & then times out with no error. I can also browse files on the C: drive of each PC from the other PC.
I tried my cable modem straight in to PC no1 & this works fine. Then in PC no2 & again this works fine so I definitely have a router issue. Now here's another weird thing, I cant connect to my router locally on http://192.168.1.1 but I can connect to it remotely using https://82.38.145.136:1981 .On the very same PC I can access the router remotely I am unable to ping the router address of 82.38.145.136
Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on??

Ok back to basics, I reset the router, un-plugged the cable DSL modem & started from scratch
Powered on the DSL modem after 30 secs
Plugged this into the router
Enabled DHCP on both PC's by taking out the static IP's from each network connection.
Now got this sucker working on the server Box - internet working fine but still having problems on the Win XP Pro box.
I booted the Win XP box on the 2nd OS (Win XP Por 64 Bit - clean install) & it worked fine so my gues is the Win XP Pro OS is screwed.
I did an IP config on the Win XP Pro box & got 192.254.123.127
===============================================
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
Unable to renew the Ip address - media state disconnected
===============================================
If I remove DHCP & give the XP Pro box a manual IP of 192.167.1.100  I can see the other server PC, remote desktop to it & all the rest but I cant connect to the internet or get onto the router at http://192.168.1.1
me think format time is upon us!!!!
Gandalf - I would have upgraded the firware but I'm very wary of this. The last Linksys router I flashed caused constant issues, same with motherboards Ive flashed. They've never been right since.
Can anyone offer a solution to this dilema with the IP?? its obvious it wont work with a 192.254xxx.xxx address but whay is it giving me this when it gives the right address on the Server Box?? Am I right in thinking the router is the DHCP server?

  • Web pages appear too big

    web pages are way too big and i can't fix this. PLEASE HELP ME!!!

    Hi, exactly what is too big and in comparison to what else. Please remember we can not see what you are seeing.
    * are you looking at webpages that are mainly text, is the text to big or too small or ok and you can read it ?
    * does [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/home/?as=u this] firefox support page display ok ?
    * is text size normal, and does it all fit on the width of the screen without you needing to scroll ?
    * do you know what screen resolution you are using ?
    Some things you could try:
    * ZOOM use control key and the plus or minus key, or use View-> Zoom note that also includes a 'text only' option
    * Full Screen View: key F11 or View -> Full screen will hide some of the bars so you see more of the webpage (press F11 again to return to normal)
    There are options for setting minimum text sizes, and also addons to change all sorts of things, sometimes with special scripts, but lets just try the simple things first.
    Note in Windows XP your screen resolution may be reset to different valuses using
    * Start -> Control Panel -> Display -> screen resolution
    Note that has a slider and towards the "more" end will give more pixels, that usually results in more text or words being displayed on a screen or webpage, but each word being smaller.

  • Sometimes web pages seem too big to fit in my screen...

    ...I can't see the far right side of many web pages I visit,(including the previous "Ask a Question" screen),...None of the Display/screen resolution options enable me to fit the whole page inside my screen,However,When I click the screen maximize button,(located on the upper right next to the close page button),..back and forth,I get a momentary glimpse of the complete page,but it only flashes a moment,then goes back to missing the far right of the page.,It seems to be up to 1/4th of the page is missing from the right side,affected pages include "Gmail",My Bank page,(where my "log out" button,and a sub menu are hidden),..and many others.,All my settings seem to be correct as best I can tell.,...Thank you.

    This issue can be caused by the Babylon Toolbar 1.1.8 extension
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: <b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)

  • Toolbar fonts way too small web pages way too big

    Upgraded to FF23 which I freaking hate FF since 18 but don't have choice for my security. Font on toolbar is about 6px and webpages are about 300% of what is normal by looking at other pages. I know I know I've heard about going to the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx in about:config but this only serves to reduce the font size on toolbar to about 2px. I have my settings on my machine set to 113% font size adjust but changing layout.css.devPixelsPerPx default setting does nothing but make webpages 300% enlarged and font size on toolbar almost okay.
    I already have enough addons and why should I need to add two more just to see a webpage at its regular design size. An image that is 43x43px is showing up at 55x55px. The exact webpages look perfectly normal in all other browsers. So in spite of my support for FF projects I guess I will be leaving since users are not considered valuable.

    cor-el: Thank you very much for your reply but I do not know what the Context Menu is or where to find it. I'd appreciate some further help. Thanks

  • Cant play swf in web page

    I imported one flv file(large-80MB) in Flash 8 and used
    Mediaplayback component to play it in Flash.It works ok.I generated
    a html page with .swf file .When I copy the html page (with code)
    in my web page(asp.net) I can not see the video.Is the file size
    (flv) has to do do something?
    I thought that since swf is a small(68.8Kb) file it should
    play in my web page.
    Does big flv files once converted to swf gives
    trouble???

    yes i did..
    i was able to resolve the problem.my content path was not
    correct.

  • Web pages too big

    At 2.30 this morning certain web pages expanded so that some parts of them became unreachable. At the same time, the scroll wheel began to zoom just the visible part of the page in and out instead of scrolling up and down. THe second problem stopped after a few minutes, but the first is still evident. It is most commonly found with google products. The pages still appear correctly in IE9

    Extensions that do not work properly can also cause Firefox to miss the release of the Ctrl button.<br />
    Usually it helps to press down and release those status keys (Shift, Ctrl, Alt) a few times to make Firefox recognize the current state once again.

  • Web pages too big to view without zooming out each one.

    I have to zoom out each new web page manually to see it all on the screen.

    I lose the percentage +/- buttons at the bottom right that make it easier to zoom out. The oversized pages do not change. Thanks.

    Thank you. 

    The browser has always been a bit of a weak point on the BB.

  • When I print a web page, the font size is always the default (which is good for screen reading, but too big for printing), even when I use Text Zoom to make it smaller.

    How can I change the font size when printing web pages?

    When you zoom in, it is like using a magnifying glass - the underlying image remains unchanged, as you have found out.
    You may be able to enlarge the bird to some extent without distortion and without pixilation by resampling.
    Go image menu>resize>image size. Be sure that "constrain proportions " is checked in the dialog.

  • My web page at 100% is too big for my screen, at 75% it's kinda hard to read. Can I get it to like 85% and keep it there permatly. Now I have to take time to change it on every page! Thanks.

    Every time I cahnge web pages I have to stop and resize to 75%, ehich is a little small. But 100% won't all fit my screen. Can I get to like 80 or 85% and keep it like that so I don't have to resize every page? Thanks.

    Which add-on did you install that shows you the percentage for page zoom?
    The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox and there's no display of zoom %.

  • How to send quiz results to a web page?

    Okay, this should have taken 2 minutes, not 2 hours. Very frustrating. Here is the situation:
    * Downloaded Captivate 5 Trial Version
    * Created based quiz (which took forever to figure out how to set the correct answers -- HORRIBLE user interface for setup, but that is another issue)
    * I want the results sent to a web page. I will code the web page & database calls, etc. to handle the information (I am a web developer). Just need the information sent somewhere!
    Several big issues here:
    1. When setting up a URL for the "Pass or Fail", nothing happens. User not taken anywhere. No "Post Results" button shown. The Captivate file just ends and that's it. ??
    2. Finally figured out that I needed the "Internal Server" option chosen to have a Post Results button shown. Okay.
    So when I click Post Results (after answering the 5 questions correctly), I am shown a login box. Why? What is this for? This is not needed. I am going to an INTERNAL SERVER. It is none of Adobe's business what this person's name/email is. What gives? Okay... anyways, I enter my own Adobe login information. It then says "Connecting..." then I get a Status Message that says "Unknown Error". Keep in mind this will be used by a general audience, of which approximately 99.9% will not have an Adobe ID, nor should they need one.
    How I can easily have the Captivate file redirect the user to pages like this: Confirm.aspx?pass=yes or Confirm.aspx?pass=no.
    I don't need anything fancy. But I do need something that works. This is terribly frustrating and I'm about to say it just doesn't work. Please tell me I am wrong.
    Thank for your time and for reading this.
    -Randy

    The Quiz Results slide's Continue button actions are set under Quiz Preferences > Pass or Fail > If Passing Grade etc. By default, the Continue button is set to just continue on to the next slide after the Quiz Results.
    After the user clicks the Continue button on the Quiz Results slide any Pass/Fail actions you've set up there will be evaluated and executed.
    So if the user achieved a passing score, and you set up an action such as Go to URL in Current Window for that case, then the user should find themselves redirected to that URL.  If there was a different action for Failure, and the user failed, then that should happen.  But either of these will only happen after the Continue button is clicked.
    I tested this by setting www.google.com as the go to URL and it worked.  To see if the URL is the issue, try using another URL that you know everyone can get to.  If that works, try to find out why the URL you want to use is not working.  If no URL works, something else is interfering with the action.

  • Save Web Page to String or File

    Hi,
    I'm trying to save a web page to a file or preferably to a String. I need the html coding from it. I tried with the next code:
        public static String saveURL(URL url){
           try{
              URLConnection uc = url.openConnection();
              InputStream raw = uc.getInputStream();
              byte[] data = new byte[100*1024];
              raw.read(data);
              raw.close();
              return (new String(data));
          } catch(Exception e){System.out.println("Utils saveURL");e.printStackTrace();return null;}
        }But it worked with one site and it didn't work with another. I got this message from the one that didn't work:
    < ! D O C T Y P E H T M L P U B L I C " - / /
    Do you know a better method to save a web page to a String? Could it be that the web page i'm trying to save is protected? I don't think so because Internet Explorer is able to save it. Thank you.

    your buffer may be big enough, but the wrong assumption you are making is that read() actually fills the buffer. It may read less data than that, as you are experiencing right now. The read() method returns the amount of bytes it actually reads, so use that information to keep reading data in a loop until you get it all. This link contains an example how to do that:

  • How can I refresh only a section of a web Page

    Hi,
    I am generating a web page using pl/sql. This web page has
    multiple sections in it. Only first ten records of each
    sections are displayed and the user can click on <prev> <next>
    button to display the prev/next 10 records. e.g.,
    Section 1 - Previous Names
    Smith
    Owen
    McDonald
    <<Prev 10 Next 10>>
    Section 2 - Previous Addresses
    111 State St.
    121 Altamont Ave.
    48 Apt 1., Bleeker St.
    <<Prev 10 Next 10>>
    Section 3 and so on ...
    My dilemma is that if a user wants to display the next ten
    records of a Section (e.g. Previous Names), I only want that
    part of the page to refresh instead of the entire page to reload
    again (similar to an ASP using Remote Scripting).
    Can this be done in Oracle using PL/Sql?
    Thanks
    Vic

    Each Section is independent of the other i.e., the change in the
    contents of one section shouldn't affect the contents of another
    section. This works fine. I am able to change the contents of
    a section without affecting the contents of another section. I
    basically keep track of each sections starting position.
    Though this works fine and gets me what I want, it's not very
    efficient. Each time a section's contents change (by clicking
    prev/next) the whole page needs to be reloaded. I want only the
    section that was clicked on to reload.
    In Active Server Pages (asp), a person can use "remote
    scripting" to reload only a part of the page without reloading
    the entire page. I was wondering if this could be done using
    PL/Sql as well?
    I could certainly use frames but that's not an option. Frames
    are a big no no here.
