Question regarding homehub and Open reach router -...

Hi all,
  I had infinity installed earlier this month and am happy with it so far. I do have a few questions regarding the service and hardware though.
  I run both my BT openreach router and BT Home hub from the same power socket. The problem is, if I turn the plug on so both the Homehub and Openreach Router start up at the same time, the home hub will never get an Internet connection from the router. To solve this I have to turn the BT home hub on first and leave it for a minute, then start the router up and it all works fine. I'm just curious if this is the norm or do I have some faulty hardware?
  Secondly, I appreciate the estimated speed BT quote isn't always accurate, I was quoted 49mbits down but received 38mbits down - Which I was happy with. Recently though it has dropped to 30. I am worried this might continue to drop over time. and as of present I am 20mbits down on the estimate . For the record 30mbits is actually fine and probably more than I would ever need. If I could boost it some how though I would be interested to hear from you.
Thanks, .

Just a clarification: the two boxes are the HomeHub (router, black) and the modem (white).  The HomeHub has its own power switch, the modem doesn't.
There is something wrong if the HomeHub needs to be turned on before the modem.  As others have said, in general best to leave the modem on all the time.  You should be able to connect them up in any order, or together.  (For example, I recently tripped the mains cutout, and when I restored power the modem and HomeHub went on together and everything was ok).
Check if the router can connect/disconnect from the broadband using the web interface.  Leaving the modem and HomeHub on all the time, go to http://192.168.1.254/ on a browser on a connected computer, and see whether the Connect/Disconnect button works.

  • Answer the following question regarding GUI_UPLOAD and Open Data Set

    1. what’s the connection or relationship of S_GUI to GUI_UPLOAD?
    2. GUI_UPLOAD saves files to local directory of a use while OPEN DATA SET saves/archives files in the server directory.  Where is the risk directed towards consuming disk space?  Server disk or workstation disk space?

  • Question regarding roaming and data usage

    I am currently out of my main country of service, and as such I have a question regarding roaming and data usage.
    I am told that the airplane mode is sufficient from keeping the phone off from roaming, but does this apply to any background data usage for applications and such?
    If the phone is in airplane mode, are all use of the phone including wifi and application use through the wifi outside of all extra charges from roaming?

    Ann154 wrote:
    If you are getting charged to use the wifi, then it is possible.  Otherwise no
    Just to elaborate here, Ann154 is referring to access charges for wifi, which is nothing to do with Verizon, so if you are using it in a plane, hotel, an internet cafe etc that charges for Wifi rather than being free .   Verizon does not charge you (or indeed know about!) wifi usage, or any other usage that is not on their cellular network (such as using a foreign SIM for example in global phones)  So these charges, if any, will not show up on the verizon bill app.  Having it in airplane mode prevents all cellular data traffic so you should be fine

  • Question regarding MM and FI integration

    Hi Experts
    I have a question regarding MM and FI integration
    Is the transaction Key in OMJJ is same as OBYC transaction key?
    If yes, then why canu2019t I see transaction Key BSX in Movement type 101?
    Thanks

    No, they are not the same.  The movement type transaction (OMJJ) links the account key and account modifier to a specific movement types.  Transaction code (OBYC) contains the account assignments for all material document postings, whether they are movement type dependent or not.  Account key BSX is not movement type dependent.  Instead, BSX is dependent on the valuation class of the material, so it won't show in OMJJ.
    thanks,

  • **question regarding 3G and wif**.

    I have a question regarding 3G and wifi. I have #G activated as well as wifi, when I go to retrieve mail for example I get a pop up asking me if I want to connect to a wifi network…should I have wifi and 3G activated at the same time, and why am I getting the pop up…
    Thanks

    You can have them on at the same time, but they will not be used at the same time for data. The order of preference for data is WiFi > 3G > EDGE > GPRS. You're getting the pop up, most likely, because you have Settings > Wi-Fi > Ask to Join Networks set to ON. You can set that to OFF, and the iPhone will still join known (i.e. previously used) WiFi networks automatically.

  • Question regarding Dashboard and column prompt

    My question regarding Dashboard and column prompt:
    1) Dashboard prompt usually work with only for columns which are in subject area. In my report I've created some of the columns which are based on other columns. Like I've daysNumber column that is based on two other columns, as it calculates the difference of two dates. When I create dashboard prompt I can't find this column there. I need to make a prompt on this column.
    2)For one of the column I've only two values 1 and 0. When I create prompt for this column, is it possible that in drop down list It shows 'Yes' for 1 and 'No' for 0 and still filter the request??

    Hi Toony,...
    I think there was another way of doing this...
    In the dashboard prompt go to Show option > select SQL Results from dropdown.
    There you need to write your Logical SQL like...
    SELECT CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN PERIODS.YEAR ELSE difference of date functionality END FROM SubjectAreaName
    Here.. Periods.Year is the column which is already exists in repository's presentation layer..
    and difference of date functionality is the code or formula of column which you want to show in drop-down...
    Also write the CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN PERIODS.YEAR ELSE difference of date functionality END code in fx of that prompt.
    I think it helps you in doing this..
    Just check and inform me if it works...
    Thanks & Regards

  • Disgusted by BT bad service and Open Reach - charg...

    Having some serious issues with BT and Open Reach, right from day 1. 
    Part 1:
    When I opened BT phone account, rude BT operator got my name and address wrong after saying she had been there 15 years and knew her job, I had to waste valuable time to correct this.
    I asked for Ex-Directory number - read next...
    Part 2:
    Booked the engineer, when he arrived, he was late and wasn't happy. He told us he wasn't meant to be there, he was covering for someone - very unprofessional attitude.
    He got a phonecall from a friend and told them he was going to 'get out of here', this was a Friday. He left in the middle of the job. We had already waited enough for the installation and we had to wait another weekend to get it finished.
    Part 3:
    Eventually got connected, but the phone started ringing 3 times a day, we got recorded messages, silent calls and people trying to get info from us. This was supposed to be an Ex-Directory number...
    We googled our telephone number and found out that it was from a recent local Commercial Vehicle Rental business.
    Our internet provider told us there would be a charge if we changed the number, and we would have no internet for a couple of weeks. 
    We called BT, they offered no suitable solutions, we would have to pay the internet charge even though it was BT's mistake.
    Part 4:
    We are still getting as many nuisance calls. BT said they would register us with TPS -  they didn't. I had to, plus registered with other bodies BT didn't tell me about. I have told BT there is an ill person here who is suffering stress from the calls but BT will not block known numbers.
    Part 5:
    On Monday 23rd April we lost our phone connection, so we called BT and had to push for an engineer to come before Thursday. He came on Wednesday without our knowledge and put a card through our door pretending that he needed to access the property to fix the fault.
    Interestingly that was a lie, because the line had been cut outside. How do we know? Read next...
    Part 6:
    A very rude, unprofessional and mannerless Open Reach engineer came on Thursday, (after another long phone call to BT), told us our neighbour had cut off two BT lines and a Sky connection, and they were here to fix it. 
    At the end of the job he told us he would be applying a charge to US, even though he knew our neighbour a few doors down had cut our line while he was cutting his trees. The charge is in the region of £130.
    I believe the neighbour is a BT customer, but BT told me they are not going to pursue the charge with him, even though the engineer's report stated the neighbour is the culprit.
    BT and Open Reach are cowardly, bullying customers who are not responsible, while they should be pursuing those who are responsible for vandalising BT's property. They charge their innocent customers anyway and let them go through the stress of disputing unlawful charges from BT and Open Reach.
    So far we have wasted valuable time, made dozens of useless phonecalls, are very stressed.
    We are disgusted with BT and Open Reach.

  • Question Regarding MIDI and Sample Accuracy

    Hi,
    I have 2 questions regarding MIDI.
    1. MIDI is moved by ticks. In the arrange window however, you can move a region by samples. When doing this, you can move within values of the ticks (which you can see on your position box that pops up) Now, will this MIDI note actually be played back at that specific sample point, or will it round the event to the closest tick? (example, if I have a MIDI note directly on 1.1.1.1, and I move the REGION in the arrange... will that MIDI note now fall on the sample that I have moved the region to, or will it be rounded to the closest tick?)
    2. When making a midi template from an audio region, will the MIDI information land exactly on the sample of the transient, or will it be rounded to the closest tick?
    I've looked through the manual, and couldn't find any specific answer to these questions.
    Thanks!
    Message was edited by: Matthew Usnick

    Ok, I've done some experimenting, and here are my results.
    I believe those numbers ARE samples. I came to this conclusion by counting (for some reason it starts on 11) and cutting a region to be 33 samples long (so, minus 11, is 22 actual samples). I then went to the Audio Bin window, and chose to view region length as samples. And there it said it: 22 samples. So, you can in fact move MIDI regions by samples!
    Second, I wanted to see if the MIDI notes in the region itself would be quantized to the nearest tick. I cut a piece of audio, so it had a 1 sample attack (zoomed in asa far as I could in the sample editor, selected the smallest portion, and faded in, and made the start point, the region start position). I saved the region as a new audio file, and loaded it up in the exs sampler.
    I then made a MIDI region, with and triggered the sample on beat 1 (quantized, on the money). I then went into the arrange window, made a fixed cycle length, and bounced the audio. I then moved the MIDI region by one sample to the right. I did this 22 times (which is the number of samples in a tick, at 120, apparently). After bouncing all of these (cycle position remained fixed, only the MIDI region was moving) I imported all the audio into the arrange on new tracks, and YES!!! The sample start was cascaded by a sample each time!
    SO.
    Not only can you move MIDI regions by sample, but the positions are NOT quantized to Logics ticks!
    This is very good news, and glad I worked this out!
    (if anyone thinks this sounds wrong, please correct me, but I'm pretty sure I proved it, in my test)

  • Question regarding IWDTree and context Value Node naming

    Hi,
    I have a question regarding the IWDTree / IWDTreeNodeType components.
    I have a context looking like this:
    Context
      + ResponseNode
        + PersonNode (1..1)
          + PersonAddressNode                    (empty node, placeholder)
          | + AdresNode (0..n)
          + PersonChildNode                      (empty node, placeholder)
          | + PersonNode (0..n)
          |   + PersonAddressNode                (empty node, placeholder)
          |     + AddressNode (0..n)
          + PersonParentsNode                    (empty node, placeholder)
            + PersonNode (0..n)
              + PersonAddressNode                (empty node, placeholder)
                + AddressNode (0..n)
    The context represents a person, a person's address, and a person's children and parents with their respective addresses.
    As a result, on different branches, a PersonNode and AddressNode can appear.
    And for some strange reason, all PersonNodes and AddressNodes link to the same ResponseNode.PersonNode.PersonParentsNode.PersonNode and ResponseNode.PersonNode.PersonParentsNode.PersonNode.PersonAddressNode.AddressNode respectively, irregardless of their branch...
    Is it illegal to have multiple PersonNode and AddressNode node names, and should they be named uniquely?

    Generally, node names need to be unique inside the context, attributes in different nodes can have same names. I wonder if the context structure you described will result in code without compile errors.
    The WD Tree can only be used with recursive context nodes or with a hierarchy of non-singleton child nodes.
    Can you give an example how your tree should look like at runtime?

  • How to change an "answered question" icon to and "open" one

    An hour ago this morning, I re-opened a thread of mine that had already been answered. Unfortunately, I could not easily locate the instruction or button that allows me to convert the "answered question" icon to an "open question" icon. I want to change it so those people who filter their screens to view only "open question" posts will find mine.
    Please advise if this can be done. If so, how can it be done?
    Thanks, in advance.

    Unless the question is the identical question, please open a new discussion topic. Otherwise, you will present us with a long chain of discussion to wade through to find your new question, and I know I for one...if I think I've already worked through a questions...don't want to wade through it again.
    If it is indeed the same question, it is not as clear. It must be the IDENTICAL problem or situation you are facing to "reuse" a thread.
    I recommend...especially if you are at all on a different tangent...referring to your earlier thread with a link. State your new question clearly in the title, and present your case succinctly, with links.
    What sort of efficiency are you trying to achieve by reopening a question that has been "answered?" If you have already marked responses as helpful or as answers, there's very little pay for considering your reopened question. (joke) Help the Forum economy by opening a new thread!

  • Question regarding battery and warranty

    Hi all! I have a quick question about how and if my warranty applies to my battery. After about a year and a half of ownership (I have the three-year extended warranty), my battery has gone completely down the toilet. It wasn't a problem before, but this year I have to lug my T61p around a lot for lab work. My battery is now rated at... 39.75Wh when it shipped at 84.24Wh. This is a pretty drastic difference. In any case, I don't think that this is covered by warranty, but figured that I'd ask before I drop $180 on a new battery (ouch). And, speaking of, if my suspicions are correct, does anybody know where I might find a 9-cell battery for the T61p? All I'm seeing on Lenovo's website is the one for the N100... which doesn't... match very well. Yaknow.
    Thanks a lot!
    ThinkPad T61p [June 2008]: 2.5Ghz Penryn Core 2 Duo, 4GB DDR2 RAM, NVidia Quadro FX 570m 256MB, 160GB 7200RPM Fujitsu HDD, 1920x1200 WUXGA Matte LCD, Windows 7 RC1

    Is either of these appropriate? I'm wary of the one on Amazon, as there are other (off-brand) batteries that are advertised as being Lenovo ones (though those generally sell for  a lower price). The other one just looks like I'll have to call up to buy it.

  • Question regarding selectOneMenu and PROCESS_VALIDATIONS(3) phase

    The thing is that i have a simple selectOneMenu
    <h:form id="SearchForm">

    </h:form>Now when i hit submit button i can see that the bean method searchCaseBean.caseTypes (used in the <f:selectItems> tag) is executed in the PROCESS_VALIDATIONS(3) phase. How come? I dont whant this method to be executed in phase 3, only in phase 6.
    If i add the this in the method if (FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getRenderResponse())
    public List<SelectItem> getStepStatuses(){
         List<CaseStep> caseSteps = new ArrayList<CaseStep>();
         if (FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getRenderResponse()) {
              caseSteps = getCaseService().getCaseStep(value);     
         List<SelectItem> selectItems = new ArrayList<SelectItem>(caseSteps.size());
         for(int i=0; i < caseSteps.size(); i++){
              CaseStep step = caseSteps.get(i);               
              String stepStatus = step.getStatus() + "_" + step.getSubStatus();           
              selectItems.add(new SelectItem(stepStatus, step.getShortName()));
         return selectItems;
    } Now i get a validation error (javax.faces.component.UISelectOne.INVALID) for the select field and only phase1, phase2, phase 3 and phase 6 is executed.

  • Few questions regarding Training and event management

    Dear All,
    Can you please help me with the following queries regarding Training and Event Management:
    1. How to freeze a completed business event so that no changes to its record (like delete/update attendee details or event detail) is possible?
    2. How to get feedback from attendee/faculty with a predefined format with rating (1-4 scale)
    3. How to maintain department and category wise training man/hrs or training man/days?
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Toa

    Hi Toa,
    1. Run report RHHISTO0 via SA38. Once the business event is flagged as "historical" no further changes can be done.
    3. SM30 - T77S0 - Make the following swtiches active:
    SEMIN AINST
    SEMIN APART
    Then when events are followed up, these training data is recorded to employee 2002 infotype. You can report on it via PT90 (for department-based selection use "Further selections")

  • Question regarding NAT and directed-mode

    Hello,
    I have two WAE 574 devices and a CM 274 all running code level 4.3.1.6, The CM is behind a PIX firewall. There is no firewall between the branch and core WAE. The branch device is behind a NAT router. The CM and SSL ASA rea behind a PIX 515 firewall. The branch WAE is running inline mode and the core WAE is using WCCP redirection. Both the CM and SSL ASA are reverse NATted on the PIX firewall. The branch WAE has the primary interface unchecked on the CM and is using the NAT address.
    I am getting asymmetric route issues. This is because for some reason the NAT address of the branch WAE sends the SYN which is responded to but the ACK is coming from the unnatted private address. When I turn off directed mode I can see optimisation start for some sessions but not for the SSL
    ASA.
    Example
    Branch WAE Private 192.68.1.45
    Branch WAE Public 206.99.88.10
    CM private 192.168.20.9

    Although the PIX NATs the CM address, the core WAE is still still seeing it's private address.
    Do you have any idea what could be causing this ?

    I am a Mac newbie (9 months) and quite happy expect i freeze all the time after i installed lion, but that is for a different thread.;)
    I had all of my pictures on an external hard drive.  I had them organized in folders by year (also had a Year/edited for family photos we changed) and then by date/event...ie, 2011 04-05 Easter Dinner at Dad's. 
    When I got my macbook pro, I hooked up the hard drive and iphoto took care of importing all the pictures.  (i have upgraded to iphoto 11).  At first, I LOVED it.  Putting face names in the pictures, etc, but after a while i got tired of having to reorganize them to find pictures the way i used to. I have over 15,000 pictures and renaming (even with the batch option) and moving them, and fixing dates, etc was becoming overwhelming.  I found myself longing for my very simple folder organization.  So i went  to look for the folders, eventually found them and found out there were folders for originals, modified, thumbnails, etc.  and when i went in my originals, they weren't in folders I had originally had on my external drive.
    My wife, who is our picture editor, preffers photoshop and i have a windows laptop that i want to use for nothing other than pictures.
    So......my question is:
    How can i best take my photo's and put them back on a hard drive and then transfer them to the other laptop?  Is there anyway to recover my old file system (deleted off the hard drive, except for an old backup but i have added thousands of pictures and have no way of telling which ones are in iphoto are old or new).  I am fearful that if I just copy iphoto to the hard drive that the windows laptop will not read them, or that it will still show up with all of the different folders (original, modified, thumbs, etc)
    And/or, is there a program to manage pictures for my macbook pro that will keep photos in folders more similarly to how i did before, so it will be easy to move pics from one laptop to the other.
    Thanks!!!!

    1. You know that iPhoto can do all this.
    2. You can sort by Date -> View Menu -> Sort Photos.
    3. You can search by date -> Click on the Search icon and select calendar. Then you can find all the pics from any day, month or year
    4. You can search by date using Smart Albums too.
    5. You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
    6. No there is no way to export back to your previous system. It's gone. You could have easily imported while mirroring that system, but it's too late for that now.
    7. To get Photos out of iPhoto: File -> Export.  Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
    8. iPhoto can run a Referenced Library (where you have your own folder system) but I don't recommend it - especially for people unfamiliar with iPhoto and Macs. It also adds no extra functionality at all. It's just dumb storage.
