Only V1 hub works on my line. 3 x V2 hubs wont con...

I've been with BT Broadband for years. The V1 hub was fine - but when I got the V2 hub a year or 2 ago, it just refused to connect to broadband. The light flashes, then settles on solid amber - no connection.
I went through various tests with the call centre - and now have 3 x V2 hubs in the house! None work on my line. All the same, yet plug in the V1 hub and it works away!
I gave up trying - but the V1 hub is down on wifi range now. Its obviously on its last legs. 
What can I do? Would one of these V3 hubs be any different or are they just a reboxed V2 hub? Need to sort something out but know full well that if I ring the call centre in india, I'll have to start all over again. I know theres somethig wrong with my line - not the hubs. 
Thanks in advance 
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Are you using the ADSL cable that came with the V2 hub?  or re-using the one that came with the V1 hub?
I know it sounds stupid, but I've seen cables with 4 pins connected, and some with only 2 pins connected.
I suggest using the V1 ADSL cable with the V2 hub (as an experiment).  If that works, you're golden.
p.s. If you think this post was helpful, and you want to stroke my ego, press "thanks"

  • Mid 2011 Macbook Air - Yosemite keyboard and trackpad stopped working, the only button that worked was the power button, only one USB port works.

    I have a Mid 2011 Macbook Air.
    Upgraded to Yosemite last week.
    Three days ago I was using my Macbook Air for the first time since upgrading to Yosemite. I had been using my Macbook Air for approximately 30 minutes, I was using safari and the keyboard and trackpad stopped working (would not respond). The only button that worked was the power button.
    I rebooted and they were still not working. I plugged in a USB mouse and external USB keyboard, only one USB port would work (the Left USB port if looking at the screen) so I had to swap between keyboard and mouse.
    After logging in there is a bluetooth icon at the top of the screen with a sawtooth line through it. Bluetooth is unavailable and the bluetooth icon is missing from the system preferences menu.
    If I run a hardware test by holding D (on USB keyboard) at startup it says that no problems are found and at the conclusion of the test the keyboard and trackpad start working again. When I log on the bluetooth is working again.
    I shut down the Macbook Air and when I started it again the keyboard and trackpad and right side USB ports were all not working again. I logged in using the USB keyboard and mouse and the bluetooth not available sawtooth icon had returned.
    I ran the hardware test again and at the conclusion of the test the trackpad and keyboard started working again.
    I have tried deleting com.apple.Bluetooth.plist and com.apple.Bluetooth.plist.lockfile from /Library/Preferences/ and tried resetting SMC and Power Functions but this did not fix the issue. The only thing that seems to work is running a hardware test - obviously I don't want to do this every time I use the computer.
    I do not believe any hardware is faulty/damaged - I think it has something to do with bluetooth/Yosemite.
    I do not have the Macbook with me at the moment, if you have suggestions that I can try or additional checks/info you require please let me know and I can get back to you.
    Thanks,
    John

    Hi!
    I have exactly the same problem, and I can't find any solution.
    I can't even track down the root of the problem: the Bluetooth/Wifi module? The trackpad? The keyboard/top case? The logicboard?
    I've tried all the usual: SMC/PRAM reset, clean install, kext cache clearing.
    Any suggestion is greatly appreciated!

  • Cannot get the 5.1 Multimedia Centre Audio/USB Hub working

    Hi there,
    I wonder if anyone could help save my sanity...
    I have been using a Toshiba Tecra A8 laptop now for sometime with no problems. This is running with Windows XP. I love it, its great, all except for one thing.
    I REALLY miss my Creative 5.1 speakers for listening to music to in my box room when working from home.
    They just sort of sit there on the windowsill, pining to be used....
    So, I thought to myself, there MUST be a 5.1 USB external soundcard that I could purchase to allow these speakers to be operational once again. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that Toshiba themselves made such a thing!!!
    In my simple way, I believed that it must be the best solution, to purchase an accessory of the same manufacturer as the machine itself.
    This would be a doddle and I would once again be listening to quality top end and punching bass......WRONG!!!
    I have now installed and uninstaled the software 3 times.
    The thing works lovely as an additional USB hub, perfect, no probs at all, but try to get a single note of music from the thing? Forget it!!!!
    I can get sound from the laptops speakers when the usb lead is not connected in.
    Everytime I do connect the multimedia (?) centre to the laptop I get the "Found new hardware" wizard come up & I am too simple to be able to simply tell the damn thing where the files that are now necessary might be.
    So, I ask for all of your powers to solve this before I load the laptop, the speakers, the multimedia (?) into the car and head off to Toshiba HQ in Addlestone to demand satisfaction.
    Many thanks for anything you can do to help me hear sound through these speakers once again.
    Soulster

    About Multimedia Centre Audio, I have no idea.
    1. May be damaged USB 4 port mini hub itself lead to
    2.USB Interface Damage
    3. Chassis front interface, leading to voltage instability
    4. Used to extend the line leading to insufficient power supply to USB 4 port hub Interface Device Not Recognized
    *Recommendations directly to the device plugged into the USB port on the back-end chassis (without extension)
    5. There is also a very important factor! Now USB, anyone can produce, it is clear there will be a problem, is not compatible with the system, more terrible thing is that these parallel imports please some of the manufacturers rookie programmers to write some of the junk drive and cause problems by virtue by virtue (such as something very popular in China)! So, bought brand on all right!
    6. It is possible that the wrong front USB access, and perhaps pick the wrong chip burned
    7. Motherboard BIOS settings

  • Firefox frequently freezes. I can't click on anything (tabs, menu buttons, bookmarks, etc.) The only button that works is the upper right close button which when clicked will ask me if I want to "save & quit." Then I have to restart. Help fixing this?

    Frequently when I use Firefox it will all of a sudden freeze. It no longer will accept any user input from the keyboard or mouse. I cannot click on any of the open tabbed pages I have or on my bookmarks or any of the menu buttons. Nothing works. When it happens if it is loading a page it will just freeze in the middle of loading it. I've tried to see if the freezes are caused when it loads certain types of content (java, flash, etc...) but there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to when it happens or with what types of pages. I cannot find a pattern. The ONLY button that works is the close button in the upper right hand corner (X). I can click on that and then Firefox will prompt me with it's regular message asking me if I want to save and quit, quit, or cancel. I'll hit save and quit and then reopen Firefox. It opens my tabs and if I was in the middle of a post it generally will still remember the text I've typed (except Facebook!).
    It's beginning to drive me nuts and I'm really hoping to find a fix to this.

    You will also notice that your shift key will be emulated. Meaning that keys you will try to press will press but they will act like you are pressing the shift key when you are doing them.
    Try this, minimize the firefox window by pressing the tab on your taskbar. After doing that maximize it again. You will magically be able to click any link on your page. When you navigate to a new page however, the entire situation will start all over. My only remedy is rebooting and hoping it doesn't happen again soon.

    Yes, it indeed boggles the mind.  I'm of course referring to the fact that your post concerns Verizon Wireless products and services.  This forum is dedicated exclusively to Verizon Communications services.   As you probably know, Verizon Wireless and Verizon Communications operate as separate companies.
    If you need help for a Verizon wireless product or service, it's best to direct questions to the Verizon Wireless forums.  You can reach them by clicking on "Wireless" (either here or at the top of the page).
    Good luck and I sincerely hope you get your issue resolved.

  • When I plug in headphones or use audio jack only one speaker works.

    There is only one speaker, the other side is the microphone.

  • My MacBook Air headphone jack only left channel works

    Builtin speakers are working fine on my MBA 2012, but when I plug any kind of headphone into the jack, only left channel works. If I tune output balance to right, then sound nothing.
    I found there are only four metal contacts in the jack, two on each side, then one for ground, the other one for left channel, none for right channel,  what about yours?

    At last, found it isn't a problem, actually any 3.5mm headphone of standard can work, just plug into the jack fully ( only one mm left ) .  enjoy ~~

    In iTunes go File -> Library -> Organise Library -> Reorganise Library.
    Then quit and restart iPhoto.

  • It seems I cannot use Sky Go even if I use Firefox. The only one that works is IE 11.

    I was using Google Chrome, but it seems they do not support Silverlight which Sky Go use. I was told that Firefox would work. It doesn't. The only one that works is Internet Explorer 11, which is very slooow. Why can't I use Firefox to view Sky Go?

    My Sky homepage. If I want to watch cricket say, it come up with ' sky go unavailable at this present moment'. If I log on to my IE 11, sky go works Ok. I have the Silverlight add-on or plug-in whatever you call it.
    Still no joy in Firefox.

  • Firefox the only browser that works?

    I'm having a really strange problem...
    Since maybe a couple weeks ago Firefox is the only browser that works for me. Other browsers can't seem to connect to ANY website. I've tried Safari and Opera... they don't work.
    I have:
    tried several different wifi signals
    reinstalled Safari, Opera, and Firefox
    reinstalled OS X (archive and install)
    repaired disk permissions
    No matter what I do, Firefox is the only thing that works

    That's not a particularly good thing. Browsers should NEVER ignore system wide proxy settings. They need to change that.
    Firefox has 3 Proxy modes:
    a) No proxy
    b) Auto-detect proxy settings for this network
    c) Manual proxy configuration
    The default is "No proxy"
    If you select "Auto-detect proxy settings for this network", Firefox will use the Network proxy setting.

  • HT1923 This article contains the only thing that worked for me.  I also had to sign out of iCloud and uninstall it.  Then I had to delete all files and folders from all of those applications that were under Program Files, Program Files x86, and Users.

    This article contains the only thing that worked for me.  I also had to sign out of iCloud and uninstall it.  Then I had to delete all files and folders from all of those applications that were under Program Files, Program Files x86, Program Data and Users.  My iPhone 4 will now sync with iTunes both in its USB-connected  mini dock and over Wi-Fi.  It's unfortunate (negligent programming on the part of Apple?) that the upgrade to iTunes 11 did not remove all of those files as part of the upgrade process. 

    I am having the same issue....Same address for years - same as USPS - I tried 5 times (3 macs and 2 iPhones) and now i have 5 CHARGES for 1.00 each on my credit card. I took the credit card info off so they don't charge me anymore. How can they charge me yet still not allow me to download free updates and say I have an invalid address? I'm sure I will spend weeks or months trying to get a credit out of these incompetent idiots.
