Not seeing comcast speed bump possible router problem

I got a letter in the mail this week about the speed bump from 50 to 75 Mbps and to just power cycle equipment and done Ran a few speed tests and average 51 down /11 up I power cycled my modem and router and PC again and had the same results. I did some googling and did not find anything related to my problem. I found something about slower speeds over wireless and some settings to change, but I m going over the wire. I still made the changes to see if they would help, disablling (Home Network Defender) and noticed no change with that. I master reset my router and no change. I directly connect to the modem and ran a speed test and was seeing 83 down /11 up. So this has me thinking time to buy a new router. Current hardware setupModem:TM702GRouter: WRT610N V1

I should have been more clear on my first post. I did end up using that as troubleshooting method the same day I made the post. I removed the router from the mix and was seeing the bumped up speed of 83 down and 12 up. So I unplugged the modem for 2 minutes no battery came with this modem since Comcast wanted extra for it which is lame, but I have Tripp Lite Smart 1500 lcdt. Plugged the modem back in and let it fully power up and finish booting up where all the green lights were solid, plugged up the router and waited a few minutes for it to wake up, then did a speed test and was back down to 51 down and 11 up. So currently I'm just running a direct connection to the modem with no router.

Possible router problem

Hi all
I have a Netgear DG834G wireless router and iam not sure if i have a problem with it. I have a 8mb BB line. When I log in to the router it tells me I have a downstream speed of 5400 kbps which I think is quite good the upstream speed is 448 kbps which again I think is normal. For the last few days safari seems to be working slow as in loading pages ect. I have tried a BB speed test and it tells me my conection speed is only 1500 kbps. so what gives. It looks to me that the problem is with the router as iam getting high speed at the router but a slower speed at my mac. It makes no difference if i connect wireless or with an ethernet cable. I have checked all my settings and they are all ok. So any ideas I dont mind buying a new router if thats the problem but I dont want to throw it away if its ok. Prehaps someone could advise me of a good router to buy.
Thanks Rob

Don't junk the router. Speak to your ISP as a first step. Send him your test results as attachments, but ensure they have been derived from a router connection direct into the BT Master Socket. Try both the socket on the front of the box and then into the socket behind the removeable lower section of the Master Socket, that is where the "BT Domain" starts. Use BTs speed test page.
What the router says is the connection speed (what I assume is the meaning of your first refernce to speed) is a sort of theoretical maximum speed derived from a sort of test that does not exactly replicate normal data transfer usage.
The actual data transfer speed would vary from that according to the number of spiders in the junction boxes and other transient variables and there is also a matter of contention.
The ISP can only grouse to BT if there is such a deficiency that they can argue an actual FAULT that BT could correct. They probaly would try but could not force the issue.
If there is a fault other than as above it is that ISPs speak about speeds such as 8MBPS that no one has ever got. You might try a "Trading Standards Complaint" along those lines. The ISPs will say that they only promise speeds of "UP TO 8MBPS" and that means anything from one bit per second to 8MBPS unless you could get a court to say otherwise.
The Netgear router will not be at fault.

Can't see a blank CD possible firmware problem

Sorry to repost, I tried to edit the first post and it was too late
I need to burn a CD.
I just put a blank CD in the CD drive but I can't see it on the desktop.
I have CD-Write -R,-RW I checked the system profiler
When I look at the CD through disk utility it thinks it is a DVD rohm and it said it can't read it and it ejected it. I tried 2 CD's of the same type and another of a different type.
I just had a colleague look at it and he thinks it might be a firmware problem.
thankx,

hey thanks anyway, I just did the software update for this machine and rebooted and now I can see the CD.

Can not see Stored Procedures owned by "Code Owner"

I am using Data Source defined with "CR Oracle ODBC Driver 5.0" in "Data Source (ODBC)".
But in Crystal Report XI, I can not see CodeOwner when I can created a new connection using ODBC (RDO).
I can see CodeOwner and all SP defined under it when I use "Oracle Server" directly or use sqlplus.

I'm using Window XP with Oracle 10g2R
To be more clear,
I have an ODBC Data Source defined as "DEV" and when I created a connection using ODBC, I can only see some database account section like: APP, APPREF, PUBLIC, SYS, SUSTEM. But I can not see CodeOwner.
If I connected without using ODBC, I can also see CODEOWNER and then all its stored procedures.
So why I can not see Stored Procedures defined under CODEOWNER using ODBC?
I have an exsiting report, even I can not see CODEOWNER, but I have no problem to run and preview the report also to "verify database".

Basic Questions on ActionTec MI424-WR Router - problems with poor download/upload speed

First, I will get to the point and ask my questions, then will explain what's happening - I'm interested in hearing whether the right actions are being taken to solve my problem.
1) After perusing the forums, I see frequent reference to the "Rev" version of the ActionTec MI424-WR Router. How do you find the Rev version? I have logged into the Router and in the "System Monitoring" icon, the Router Status lists my Hardware version as 'A'. Does this mean I have Rev 'A'?
2) What is Verizon handing out these days for Routers? Mine is being replaced, and I am wondering what to expect. I have Verizon FIOS Phone, TV, and Internet service, and have the 25/25 Internet service. Will they give me another MI424-WR? If so, what Rev level are they likely to give me?
Here's why my router is being replaced - opinions/comments/advice welcomed.
For the past year or two, I've consistently measured (via speedtest.speakeasy.net) about 30Mbs download, and around 22-25 Upload. Lately, I noticed that my downloads were quite slow, so I tested my speed at the above website, which I had not done in many months. I measured only about 2-3 Download and 1-2 up. Note all of what I am discussing hear takes place with hard-wired ethernet, NOT wireless.
I tried testing from multiple computers, running XP, Vista, and Windows 7. All getting consistently similar poor speeds. I verified my account still is supposed to have 25/25/ service, which I verified online.
Tried rebooting the router, no change. Then tried hard reset (pushing in the recessed button, holding it for about 20-30 seconds. After it reconnected to the Internet, I tested speed again. No change.
Interestingly, I tested wireless speed on the laptop I have. Speed is MUCH better, around 15 down, and 10-12 up.
I tried the speed optimization tool on two of my PCs, it made no improvement. Finally, got into an online chat with a Verizon Tech. He did some tests on the line, we repeated some of the things I already tried, and then he asked how old my Router was...I am pretty sure it is the original one I received when I first signed up for FIOS, around 5-6 years ago, which is one of the reasons I asked how to tell which rev level I had. So the tech concluded the problem was probably my Router.
I TEND to agree, especially because I recently had an "anomaly" on my network. My son complained one day that Internet was down. When I got home, I found out my NetGear Gigbit switch was dead, and two of my hard-wired ethernet network printers could no longer talk to the network. I replaced the switch, so now I am thinking perhaps the Router was damaged somehow. I have no idea what the cause of this anomaly was - everything that connects to my network was plugged into Triplite ISOBAR surge protectors, but that only protects AC power.
I would think a hardware failure would completely kill the ethernet portion of the router, not simply reduce speed, but I could be wrong. Anyone been through something similar to this before? I expect to receive the new Router next Thursday, so hopefully I should know by then, but still - what should the next steps be if the new router does not fix the problem?
Thanks for any comments, insight or shared experiences you might be willing to share...
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This is embarrassing.
Smith6612, you are absolutely correct, and you nailed it!
When all this mess started, I checked my Verizon account to make sure I was signed up for 25/25 Internet. I was.
I don't know what has happened, but after reading Smith6612's response, I went back to recheck my account. I was set up for 15/5! So, the speedtest measurements I have been getting the last couple of days are exactly what I should be getting. Two possibilities:
1) My Triple-Play bundle must have expired in the past two weeks by coincidence.
2) The Verizon tech may have changed my account profile when I worked with them online last week, although this was never discussed.
At any rate, Smith6612 wins the prize. It certainly explains the download/upload speeds I am getting. I have logged into Verizon and signed up for a new bundle. According to their website, my new profile should take effect Tuesday 1/10, so after that point, I should be measuring 25/25 again.
Thanks to all who responded to this thread. I will update this thread to confirm after Tuesday. I get nervous whenever I have to change anything with Verizon - although everything has worked fine for the past few years, we have so many services with them - Cell Phone, TV, Internet, and Home Phone, that I worry something will go wrong with the billing, but we'll see.

"Speed bump" problem: when previewing on the iPad, the first page of each new chapter or section sticks and loads slowly. How can I fix it?

I am building a book with text and photographs in iBooks Author, basing the design on my publisher's layout for the hard copy version. Whenever I introduce a new section or chapter, I hit a "speed bump" when previewing on the iPad. As you read, the first page of the new chapter or section is very hard to turn and sticks as it loads. Within each section the pages flow very easily, but when you reach the next section you hit another speed bump. I have experimented with many possible solutions to no avail. It does not seem to matter whether the new section has images or just text; the speed bump occurs regardless.

Joel Pickford wrote:
However, I am finding that using fewer sections with more content in them minimizes the problem (i.e. fewer section-transions means fewer speed bumps). This is contarary to the support page's suggestion of keeping chapters and sections smaller. I am not having any problem within each section, even with lots of full page photos.
That recommendation was made, presumably, to reduce the length of the delay for each chapter. More content in the chapter means more delay when changing chapters. Of course, if you have lots of little chapters, the delay can still be annoying because, even if only four or five pages in a chapter, the delay is still noticable. Just pick something that works for your book and don't worry too much about the delay. Your readers will be familiar with it if they've seen more than one IBA book.
Will the choice of color space, s-rgb or Adobe rgb 1998, affect file size?
Should I try to compress them more- say, level 5 or level 4 in Save For Web?
Should I size the images for the iPad 2 instead of the iPad 3 retina display, since there are more 2s out there?
Which color space you use does not affect file size. Apple recommend to use sRGB, so I would stick with that. As to compression and sizing, only you can decide. Try and borrow an iPad 2 to make a judgement at what level of compression and resolution you think the images start too look bad. Your high-rez images for the new iPad will be down-sampled for display on the older models, which will introduce additional artifacts.
For my book, I simply used images at 1024 x 768 resolution. When viewed on a new iPad, they look just fine. The lower resolution is basically unnoticeable (at least for my purposes). You can view a sample of my book here: "Djembe Construction: A Comprehensive Guide". If you think the images there are good enough for your purposes, you could down-size your images to half their resolution, which will reduce file size about around a factor of three.

When I have video clips on my timeline, they do not play in the monitor screen. I hear the sound track but can not see the image. To test if my new files are somehow the problem, I went back and used video files that I used successfully a year ago, and they no longer play in the monitor window. I hear the sound track, but do not see any video. Have I changed some setting that controls video playback in the monitor window?

Thanks for the follow up.
Missing in this equation were the version of Premiere Elements that you were using and the computer operating system on which it was running. But...
The deed is done. But.....Until now and after you went ahead and moved to version 12, we now learn what version of Premiere Elements you were using. We still do not know the computer operating system involved.
You just said Premiere Elements 10. Premiere Elements 10 is hit by a serious known display issue if the computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card. In this issue, the only remedy is to roll back the driver version to about May 2013. The description of the problem and how to do the roll back are described in one of the Announcements at the top of this forum. What video card/graphics card does your computer use?
On another front, Adobe will be releasing a new version of Premiere Elements any day now. No one but Adobe knows the feature set for the new version. That type of information is announced at the moment of release of the new version.
So the remedy to the problem that you presented in this thread could have been...
1. Rolling back the NVIDIA GeForce driver version to about May 2013 if possible (Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, may not be possible)
2. Move to another version of Premiere Elements (which you did)
I offer the above for consideration so that you can review your decisions. We are pleased to learn that Premiere Elements 12/12.1 works for you.
Please do not hesitate to ask questions and ask for clarifications, but remember that the answers are in the details.
Best wishes,

Bought 4th Gen 3TB TC - streaming TV over the internet is now so slow and now is constantly buffering. It seems the Airport Utility is always 'searching for new networks' - don't know if this is the problem. It's not the internet speed as checked that.

Bought 4th Gen 3TB TC - streaming TV over the internet is now so slow and now is constantly buffering. It seems the Airport Utility is always 'searching for new networks' - don't know if this is the problem. It's not the internet speed as checked that. I took my old router upstairs and was streaming TV via my ipad seamlessly - the same program via the TC was constantly buffering.
I just expected to be able to plug in the TC, so a simple set-up and experience wireless both upstairs and downstairs in my house. For some reason the range is low and speed veru disappointing.
I am far from being an IT expert but I would welcome advice about setting up this TC so we can enjoy the product as it was designed. Please HELP!

No silver bullet........but my suggestions may drive you in the right direction.
1. Unplug the power cable from the TC and wait 10-15 minutes before powering back up.   Seriously wait!
      Proceed to #2 if this dosen't help.
2. Unplug the power cable from the TC, ubplug the power cable from your Broadband Modem (assuming it's a cable modem), disconnect ethernet, and cable from modem.
2a. Wait 10-15 minutes then re-connect cable, ethernet, and power back to modem (your modem should power up unless you have a power switch) wait for all the modem lights to come on EXCEPT activity.
2b. Connect ethernet from modem to TC, and plug in the power cable to TC.
      Proceed to #3 if this dosen't help.
3. Reconfigure the TC.........Read here........http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3728
All really simple to do....if you need additional help let me (us) know.

Having problems with one computer not "seeing" the Airport base station.

Aloha:
I have an Airport router hooked up to the internet via Cable. I have a laptop and G4 desktop talking to the the Airport Base Station via their respective Airport cards. This allows me to get to the internet with both of my computers. This system has worked just fine for several years, but recently my desktop computer has started to be unable to connect to my Airport Base Station. At first it was intermittent, but now it has stopped completely. The laptop continues to be able to get to the internet via my Airport base station.
The desktop is running OS 10.3.9 and the airport card in the desktop passes the hardware test that came with the laptop. But it can no longer see the signal from the ABS.
What might my problem be?
Dan

Hi Clinton:
I have tried that to no avail. I don't see any
signal, so I see no networks "in the box below" to
choose. My airport card does not see a signal, but
the airport card checks out ok in the hardware test.
Thanks for replying, Clinton, much appreciated.
Dan
Have you tried choosing "other..." and then entering the name of your network?

My AirPort Extreme can not see my SMC router

I have a new MacBook Pro. It can see other routers (in my neighborhood) and connect to the internet by ethernet cable into my SMC router but it can not see the SMC router wirlessly. I have no security on my router right now. Any ideas?

I have the exact same problem: SMC Barricade G 2408WBRP-G-CA with v2.08 firmware. Because there's lots of talk of problems with WEP, turned that off, but no luck, the built-in airport card of the powerbook won't connect to the router.
I have successfully connected to a Cisco access point at work with 128-bit WEP with no problem at all, so I'm certain the hardware in the machine is functioning... just not with this access point.
This is a brand new 17" Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro that I just received... all available software updates applied.

I have a new iPhone 4s. I have a home wi-fi network using Cisco Linksys2000 router with all settings per this article - phone will not see network if set to 5 GHz channel width - solution?? 2.4 works but is not optimal with other devices in home (computers; tivo). Have others seen this? Any advice is much appreciated.

Stephen Spark is right - your best alternative is to use a simultaneous dual band wireless router like the AirPort Extreme. Your Cisco Linksys2000 is not a dual band router, meaning that it will be constrained to operate at the slowest speed of all the devices on your network.
The AirPort Extreme's dual networks will support all your 802.11n devices as well as all your 802.11b/g devices on both the 2.4 and 5 GHz frequencies simultaneously.

I hate the new downloads-in-a-tab scheme. This was an unnecessary change in my book (if it aint broke, don't "fix it").
So in order to get it back, I performed the about:config browser.download.useToolkitUI change, but now all I get is a blank download window that pops up every time I download something.
Is there something else that I need to do? I've checked the change and it was saved, but it didn't resolve my issue as much as it just caused me a new issue.
