PC disconnects from VPN after several hours, can't reconnect until PC reboot.

Hi,
I started using a private VPN for video gaming in general since last month, but I've started running into a problem I cannot fix... my PC tends to disconnect from the VPN after a while (6~12 hours of use?) and I can't reconnect to any VPNs until I reboot my
PC.
However.. my normal internet connection seems to work fine.
When I try to reconnect to the VPN after I get dropped, I'm welcomed by this error:
http://puu.sh/bicqT/0a6f1f8537.png
I'm on Windows 7 64bit and I use the default windows VPN client... idk what's it called, it's what you setup in the network and sharing center.
I've tried the following things:
*restart network adapter
*diagnose the issue with windows 7 network diagnostics
*/flush DNS cache
*/release and /renew lease
*reset internet connection
*using a neighbor's internet connection and I'm still unable to connect to any VPN until PC reboot.
-- diagnosing the wireless adapter after the disconnect from VPN happens leads to this...

http://puu.sh/bibq9/a10d3246d1.png
I cannot repair it through diagnostics.
Anyway, it's a problem on my end because I share the VPN with 2 other friends and they don't experience this problem... >_<
If there's any information missing, please tell me and I'll provide.
Thank you for any help!

Hi,
could you tell me do you run more than one VPN connection on your PC?
Did you try to delete and re-configure the VPN?
What type of security software are you using? Any kind of software which might block the traffic or close the port in case it thinks that something fishy is going on?
Could you determine which manufacturer is your Wireless card, visit their website and download the latest drivers directly from their site. Or if you are using laptop, visit manufacturers website and download wireless drivers.
You can try to update the drivers manually.
What about that 'Enable logging' thingy? Can you enable it and when the next time disconnection happens, you might determine what is the exact issue with the VPN.

Flash app disconnects from FMS after an hour

I have developed a Flash chat for a client using FMS2. The
application is used by goups of 5-15 people, who will use it for up
to 2 or 3 hours in one session, sometimes even longer.
Many of our users are complaining that they consistently get
disconnected after about an hour. They can usually log back in
immediately. Are there any known issues with connections being
lost?
A second problem I'm facing is that periodically my entire
interface(AS2, SWF7) stops interacting properly. No user
input(click actions, text input) is received, and several animation
scripts stop updating. However, the application is still connected
and new messages are received. Again, users report this behavior
consistently after an hour. I know that is an extremely ambiguous
problem, but I've been going crazy trying to isolate the problem,
if anyone has even a guess, I'm all ears.
A few facts about the chat:
- It uses a persistent RSO to store chat history
- Chat messages are sent from client to server, and processed
by server and put in the chat RSO
- User listing and info is in an RSO, which is created by
ther server and modified by the clients. It is modified frequently
by all clients when they type, setting a "isTyping" flag to be
rendered by their name on each clients user list window
- I'm using a complex custom message renderer, which includes
emoticon support and dynamic attach/removal of message clips when
scrolled(to prevent application slow down as the chat history gets
long).
- Our users I believe are are using somewhat older computer
equipment, and are fairly minimal in computer literacy/experience.
Any help would appreciated.

I solved my interface problem. Long story short I
accidentally had an endless loop in teh suers RSO that was causing
focus to be constantly stolen and placed on a certain textfield.
However, I'd still be interested to know if there are any
problems with connections dying after an hour, or any amount of
time.

No internet access after disconnecting from VPN

Summary:
windows fails to restore normal network after disconnecting from a VPN network, the PPP adapter which represent VPN connection stays in the interface list even after disconnection. system has no network access to anywhere.
Synopsis:
a. Win 7 Pro x64 Client computer in a home network without any corporate firewall software connects successfully to VPN using windows VPN connection. (Rasdial)
b. after disconnecting from VPN, client lost internet and local connections.
c. ipconfig -all shows PPP adapter (VPN) still exits as an network interface in nonoperational state.
d. pinging any ip address except localhost results in "no resources" error.
e. trying to dial VPN again results in "element not found" error.
Solutions I tried so far:
ipconfig -release and ipconfig -renew.
Disable / Enable Wireless Adapter.
rasdial "vpn connection" /d
currently the only solution is restarting the PC after each VPN usage which is very frustrating.

Hi Ivan and thanks for your reply,
I tried "netsh winsock reset", unfortunately it didn't fix the problem.
The status Icon is normal, no indication of limited or no connectivity, I can ping and open the router webpage at 192.168.1.1.
here is the result of ip config command, hope it helps, if you want I can provide netstat result or any other net diag command you want.
as you can see the PPP adapter still in the list which it shouldn't be.

There are several login keychain items I'd like to get rid of. I've deleted them but they come back after several hours. How can I get rid of them for good

There are several login keychain items I'd like to get rid of. I've deleted them but they come back after several hours. How can I get rid of them for good.

Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
          Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked
          Keep login keychain unlocked
is not checked, check it.
Select
          Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

My iPod shut off randomly and will no longer turn back on. I plugged it in to charge it, but after several hours it will not turn back on. What should I do?

My iPod turn off randomly. I plugged it in to the charger, and after several hours, it still will not turn on. I even plugged it into my computer and pulled up iTunes, where it showed up on the screen as plugged in, but still it will not turn back on. Any suggestions on what I should do?

- First try resetting the iPOd:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
- Next try restoring the iPod via iTunes, first from backup and if still problem to factory defaults/new iPod.

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?

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

recently bought a samsung NX30 camera which came with lightroom 5, after several hours of googling i got it setup properly with the correct camera raw to be able to access my raw images. I found my old laptop was very slow when processing the hundreds of images I usually take on a weekly basis. I bought a new faster laptop but when I looked for the cd with the software and serial I could not find it in the Xmas clutter. I downloaded a trial version of lightroom and got it working on my new laptop. Is there a way to access the serial number from my previously installed version and insert it into the trail version to make it work for me?
Myron

Mea culpa
While i registered all my cs2 thru 6 versions and my lightroom 2 thru 4 versions and recorded the serials and saved the adobe registration emails. Since this came as a freebee with the camera i neglected this vital step. I have the instslled version on my old laptop but want to install it on my new one. Thanks to Jim Hess I got the serial so all is well in my world and I will register it with ADOBE

My ipod classic will not sync my content, even after several hours.

My ipod classic will not sync content, even after several hours. I have restored the ipod, got a new dock connenctor, manually synced a few songs. This is frustrating. I am considering sending the ipod for service. What do I do?

How is your iPod configured to sync TV Shows? What options do you have enabled from under your iPod's TV Shows configuration tab in iTunes?
No error messsages when you sync your Classic with iTunes? Try resetting all warnings with the device by right->clicking on it from under Devices in the left hand pane of iTunes and choosing Reset warnings. Then resync your device to see if any errors appears.

Firefox becomes very sluggish after several hours of usage

In the past 2 weeks, after several hours of use, firefox becomes very sluggish. Cannot switch tabs easily. Cannot type emails easily, etc. If reboot computer, works fine at first, but again, after several hours, becomes sluggish again. This happens to both my computers which are on a network. A technician suggested a virus, but have not seen any virus messages. Use AVG 2013 virus software.

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Disconnect dialup connections after 1 hour - ACS (Radius)

Hello All,
I need to disconnect dialup users after 1 hour - limit session. Using ACS 3.3 RADIUS config. Looking at the RADIUS attribute [027] Session-Timeout to do this. ACS documentation indicates this does not support PPP sessions. However this link http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk59/technologies_configuration_example09186a0080094671.shtml#hw
indicates it can.. I am goint to test but thought I'd put it here in case anyone has this working.

Tested and working fine :-)

JRE / JWS failure after several hours

I encountered a strange problem when trying to login to a SquirrelMail application that only occured with three out of seven browsers I use for testing. After making sure that all cookie and security settings were the same in all browsers, I happened to notice that in the failing three, there were some error messages shown in the Javascript console.
So I thought it would be a good time to make sure my JRE was up to date. I installed the latest level, but that didn't help. Then Inoticed the Java Web Start package (but didn't notice that it was supposed to be part of the JRE). I downloaded and installed that, and the three browsers started handling the login properly.
However, after several hours all three started failing again.
I repeated the JWS installation, and they worked...for a few more hours.
I repeated this cycle several times, and it was always the same: the login page was processed normally for several hours only after a reinstallation of the JWS package.
The browsers that are failing are: IE, Opera and Firefox. The ones that are not affected by this are NetScape, K-Meleon and Slim Browser.

but i kept on having download failure.
May be your internet connection ...

Toshiba 40L7335D turns off by itself after several hours of use

My Toshiba TV 40L7335D periodically turns off by itself!!!!

FF4 starts using all of available CPU after several hours, needs reboot.

This used to happen in the previous release version of FF, and it's apparently still the case in FF4.
Everything works fine after I start FF4. I have 50+ tabs open and visible through TabMixPlus and FF is fast and snappy just like I want it to be, but after several hours (most often when I come back to the PC in the morning) it starts hogging too much CPU. I don't care so much for memory, I have plenty of that to spare, but once it maxes out a core once per second, FF completely slows down about that often and becomes completely unusable. I have to reboot it every time to fix that.

If you try by Ethernet you can verify if the issue is with your WiFi network or if your appletv is defect as most users do not suffer as you do
