Please help! connection problems

ok I've been working on this for several hours now and can't figure it out. I just moved back home and my connection was working some yesterday but I can't get it to work anymore.
It says I'm connected but it won't receive any packets. I changed the SSID name and removed the old SSID's. I reinstalled my wireless pci card drivers and switched pci slots. I updated the router's firmware (it's WRT54G). I changed Advanced Wireless Settings as suggested: Beacon Interval: 50; lowered Fragmentation and RTS threshholds by 40 each. I switched the router to channel 11.
I've tried repairing the connection many times (some times it works, most times it won't renew IP address); I've also reset the router many times.
My computer skills are intermediate but certainly not advanced. I can't directly connect it to the modem via cable b/c I don't have the necessary hardware (modem card?). I talked to tech support and I was able to "ping yahoo.com," google, etc successfully but it just won't receive packets...Please help!

The best thing to do at this point is to go back over setting up the wireless security settings again and make sure that while you are setting up these settings that you connect an Ethernet cable from that computer to the router then perform a power cycle
You need to remove the power cable from the Linksys router, then remove the power cable from the modem, wait about 60 seconds, then plug in the modem, then plug in the Linksys router. Wait about 3 minutes while the modem and router sync back up. Once all light are back on,disconnect the ethernet cable and now try to connect.
Here are instructions to follow if you need them
Setting up your wireless connection in your router.
*** Step #5 = you can choose the type of encryption that fits your set-up, the example I give is: WPA/TKIP+AES
***Also Pay close attention to the security and security key information and make sure it matches. (What is entered in the router must be entered in the computer.
1.Open Internet Explorer and type 192.168.1.1 into the address bar.
2.You will now get a sign-in box, User Name = (Leave Blank)
                                                       Password = admin (all lower case letters)
3.Once the set-up page opens, click on the Wireless Tab as youwill need to change the settings. A) Wireless Network Mode = Mixed
              B) Wireless Network Name (SSID) = Choose any name and do not use Linksys.
              C) Wireless Channel = 1, 6 or 11 is best, so see which work best for you.
              D) Wireless SSID Broadcast = Enabled.
4. Now go to the bottom of the page and click on save settings.
5. Click on the Wireless Security Sub tab.
              A) Security Mode: WPA
              B) WPA Algorithms: TKIP + AES
              C) WPA Shared Key: Type 24 letters, and numbers using lower and upper case letters
              D) Group Key Renewal: 3600
6. Once again go to the bottom of the page and click on Save Settings.
7. Now you can close out of this page.
8. You will now need to enter the security info into your computer. I will now give you 2 links, depending which operating system you have, Vista or XP you will follow the one you have.
Vista = http://www.home-network-help.com/wireless-adapter-configuration-in-vista.html
XP = http://www.home-network-help.com/wireless-adapter.html
Now try to make a wireless connection.
Good Luck,

Please Help Connection problems G4 and Airport Extreme

I have a G4 Quicksilver and a Airport Extreme Base Station. Wireless internet has been working great for several years. Purchased a new G5 and moved my G4 upstairs one floor. The G4 airport connection worked fine for about one day. Now everytime the G4 sleeps or restarts it can't find the AEBS. Lines in airport icon on desktop turn from black to gray. I opened Airport Admin Utility and AEBS does not show up. I know the signal is getting to that room because I also own a G4 powerbook and can connect with it. If I open internet connect and turn airport off and on I can sometimes get the signal back and connect but loose it as soon as the computer goes to sleep. If I bring the G4 back down stairs where the AEBS is I can connect no problem. I took out the airport card and reseated it and made sure the antenna connection wash pushed in all the way but no luck. Any Idea?

You may check the following points:
1. Do you have neighbouring wireless networks on the upper
floor?
2. What are your walls and floors made of? How many of them
are you crossing from your AEBS to your G4?
Are you passing through all of them perpendicularly?
3. With Internet Connect open, try to move and turn your
G4 to improve the signal strength. Does it change a lot?

Help Please! Connection problems!

Hello,
I received an Iphone3 yesterday from my friend as she no longer wanted it. When I was with her with the phone it would connect to her home internet fine with no problems, so didn't think i'd have an issue.
I've brought it home and it would connect to my Plusnet home internet connection. It wont even bring me up the option to connect or enter my password.
The internet will connect to my orange contract but i don't reall want to use that.
I don't know much about this technology and really no sure what to do.
Please help!!
Thanks
Charlotte

I Mean It wouldn't connect to my home Plusnet broadband

Please Help! Problems with Windows Vista 32-bit on Boot Camp (Wireless/Etc)

We recently purchased a new aluminum Mac Book (13 inch) with Leopard (10.5.4). I attempted to install Boot Camp and Windows Vista 32-bit. I can successfully alternate between both operating systems with no problems. However, I am having 2 problems:
1) I cannot connect to wireless internet. No connections will even show up when I attempt to connect, its almost as if an adapter hasn't been installed.
2) I cannot set up the trackpad to do right click.
I've read articles everywhere and nothing has helped. Can anybody please help me??? Any support/advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
- Pierce

dpierceNKC:
Welcome to the Apple discussions.
It appears that you may not have installed the boot camp drivers. Boot into Windows and insert your Leopard installation disk in the CD/DVD drive. This should automatically begin installation of the necessary drivers. Reboot the computer when instructed and all the hardware should work as designed.
The right click is accomplished by placing two fingers on the trackpad and then depressing the trackpad button. This should also work after the drivers are installed as instructed above.

It is obvious that noone is going to reply to me, so I have kind of solved this for myself,
for some unknown reason my origonal program that worked fine doesnt now.!?!?!??!?
However decided to approach problem from another side, and give both my desk and head a break.
Below is now how I am connecting to a database and return a connection to it, it works,
public static Connection getConnection() {
String databaseName = "jdbc:rmi://" + "localhost" + ":1099/jdbc:cloudscape:CloudscapeDB;autocommit=true;create=true";
try {
Class.forName("RmiJdbc.RJDriver");
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
System.out.println("PopulateTables: caught getting connection: " + e);
Connection con = null;
try {
con = DriverManager.getConnection(databaseName); // , user, password);
} catch (java.sql.SQLException se) {
System.out.println("PopulateTables: caught getting connection: " + se);
return con;
Thanks me.

Urgent, please help-- connection does not close

Hi,
We are using Txdatasource, Oracle thin driver in WLS6.1 sp2. The problem we have
is that we open connection and pass the connection as parameter to third part
tool to generate report, but the tool doesn't close connection after finish, then
the connection is left never being closed, and our connections in connection pool
soon used up, have to restart weblogic to reset. the connection pool is set to
allow shrink, but those connections are not recycled. Please help, how do we somehow
set up WLS or database so that if a connection is not used for some time system
automatically close connection? Thank you very much. your help is greatly appreciated

Hi Chun,
I don't think it's possible whithout changing code. Primaryly it's because
it hard to tell whether connection is abandoned or still in use. So you have
to make changes in your code.

Hi,
Thanks for reply. The reporting tool is supposed to close connection butit didn't.
And now we need some quick fix on it without touching code.
Seems like the used connection can not be garbage collected because theconnection
I used yesterday is still not recycled today. ( I monitor JDBC in WebLogicConsole,
the "connections" column on "Monitoring" didn't change). No matter how bigI set
the maximum number of connections, the connections will use up finally andwe
have to restart WebLogic server.
Is there any way to make connection drop after some time?

What prevents you from closing connection after control is returned
back from the reporting tool?

we somehow
set up WLS or database so that if a connection is not used for sometime
system
automatically close connection?Weblogic closes connections that were not returned to the pool when
they are GC-ed. Yet you should not relay on this feature as by the
moment a connection is closed the pool maybe already used up.
The other option I was thinking about is that it's possible to size
of the pool you use is too small for the application. Did you try to
increase (let say double) size of the pool?
FYI having shrinking and refresh enabled doesn't make much
sense in most of the cases. You can improve performance and
stability of your application by setting initial number of connections
to max and setting refresh period to let say 99999.
Hope this helps,

Please Help Printer Problems

I have just bought an Airport Extreme Base Station. I have a Mac Book, iBook G3 and a Win XP Laptop that I have so far connected to the network.
On the base station itself I have a Western Digital My Book External Hard Drive and an HP Photosmart C4180 all in one printer connected via a USB hub.
All the computers can see the external hard drive but I can only get the Win XP Laptop to print. The two Apple laptops will not print.
One last thing all my computers connected to the internet wirelessly via my BT Fusion Home Hub before buying the base station. When I first installed the base station I connected the WAN port to the BT hub. As far as the base station is telling me everything must be setup right as I have the solid green light.
What am I doing wrong. Please help I love Apple products and really do not want to send this back.

I'd like to suggest you go to www.tune-up.com and download and install this program.
You get a 30 day free trial to start. If you sign up as a reseller you can get the program for $29 after that.
I'm not an employee of the company but I just recommend the program as it has fixed many a friends
problems and has kept my computers and my familys computers running straight and clean with no problems.
Even if you don't buy the program after using it and it fixes your problems you can uninstall it and consider it a blessing.
I'm sure once you see what it can do you will think twice to buy it.
Other than that, I don't know much about your system to even begin to try to tell you what to do as a troubleshooter.
It could be any number of things that are wrong with it. Number one, the registry might be really messed up.
Tune-up will fix that fix off for you. A computer is like a car, it has to be kept in tune in order to keep running right.
Another problem area is malware and viruses. We all know about them but do we ever really know if we might have been bit
by any of them. Most times not until something serious causes us problems. Can I suggest another program you might try?
AVG Internet Security 2011 at www.avg.com. It's another 30 day free trial program. I am also a reseller and have all my computers
and family members registered and using it.
I can tell you that with only these two programs installed on your computer you can rest easy and use your computer without any fears or problems. Let me know how it goes for you. Good luck.

Please help : connection in the LAN

hello every one ...
I have a Lan network .. i want to enter another PC by using JAVA ...
I Know the User Name and the password ... so how can i do that ...
please help ...
best regards

Again, what do you want to do once you connect?
If you want to run command line programs you can use Telnet. To do this you will need to obtain a telnet server that you can run on the other machine. Most Unix and Linux systems come with one of these. For windows you will need to buy one or find a good Open Source or freeware server. If you have the cash (about $300USD) you can get the Hummingbird Exceed software, it has a Telnet and FTP server built in. As we all know Windows = M$.
Once you have the server you can write a client to run commands, reply 7 to Telnet to Unix box from Java App provides a simple swing client to run commands over telnet.
Another choice is to write both the client and the server. I've posted examples of how to do this on this forum. My examples are just a simple multiuser chat program, but the code could be adapted to other uses.
Again, the question is, what is your requirement?

Itunes & safari & help -connection problem

My Macbook is not allowing me to connect to the Internet using Safari, but firefox is working normally. So is my Mail.
ALSO when I try to connect to Itunes Store it says there is a connection problem and it times out.
AND when I try to look up issues in Help it doesn't go to the page. Just stays on the front pages.
Do I have some sort of connection problem ????

What you will want to do, is go to the Quicktime Page
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
And download the update of Quicktime.
You have 7.0 of QT downloaded, and iTunes7 needs 7.1.3 of QT on your computer.
Download that and you'll be fine.
That download includes iTunes as well. It should work.
Good luck,

Please Help, Mobo problems

Hello all, i have the new K8N neo platinum nforce3 motherboard and it has been working fine up until today when i attempted to install a stick of 256mb of PC2700 memory. After i installed the memory properly, i attempted to boot up my computer and i got the Diagnostic Sound of RAM problem. Nothing is showing up on my screen so i cant enter BIOS or CMOS. Please help i need my computer back asap

I cannot even get into BIOS. I boot up and get a blank screen and the diagnostic sound So tried to reset the jumper and that didnt work...my only other solution is that i get a few sticks of PC3200 memory. Another suggestion i hvae recieved was that i fractured my motherboard. Possibly a little hairline fracture in my motherboard that would render it useless. But why would my motherboard turn on if it was fractured? doesnt make sense. Computer powers on, but no visual on the screen and Diagnostic sound indicating a RAM problem.

Please Help, Numerous Problems

Had a problematic iPod not being recognized by windows, resetted, remformmated everything. Sent it back, got a new one. reinstalled itunes, reinstalled ipod update, same problem. Only now, it's stuck on do not disconnect whenever plugged in and whenever not plugged in displays the exclamation and folder with www.apple.com/ipod/support written underneath. Please help me, i am really upset as I have been having these problems for a long time

Well, I've now gotten back to the point where it's the iTunes problem again, my pc recognizes that my ipod is plugged in, but iTunes doesn't. And I tried updating the software, but it says that the ipod isn't supported.
I guess this makes me more certain that I'm going to switch to OS X and get a powerbook. I highly doubt that Macs have these problems with ipods. I guess I could get mad at Apple and say it's their fault, but my guess is it's a software issue, one relating to XP, oh well.

Please help! connection problems
