Streaming bbc radio, connection drops out, have to manually reload.

W7 pc, 4GB ram, virus/malware free. 10 mb/s cable access.
I stream BBC radio 4 in separate window. PROBLEM - connection drops out, never re-connects, have to manually reload. Changing BBC feed from nornal to low bandwidth makes no difference. No ISP bandwidth cap. No problems with other downloads (updates, jpegs etc).
Is there a download manager - don't think it can be the BBC site.

BBC at least in the past has often had problems with its Edge Servers and so listeners outside the UK would have problems that took a long while to be solved, the BBC's support system often failed to pass on info regarding problems. Specific countries/ISP s would have problems but as long as the UK service was unaffected the BBC tended not to notice.
I have not recently used BBC iPlayer online. The overseas low/high bandwidth on the iPlayer stream did not do anything other than restart the stream, overseas users only got the one low bandwidth, the option was an artefact.
AFAIK the BBC does still stream Flash and Windows

As you are using a Widows computer try both streams one may work still.
The BBC no longer has a support forum, but you could look at

As always worth trying clearing the browser cache, and the BBC related cookies.

Re: streaming bbc radio, connection drops out, have to manually reload.

Regarding this question (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/885229) the "HAVE TO MANUALLY RELOAD" aspect of the original question was completely ignored. Why is this true, and why was it ignored? Can't loss of a connection be detected by an Internet radio player? Can't the player automatically attempt to reestablish the connection? Are all players based on the same faulty code? They sure seem to be.

MacBook Pro Airport connection drops out

I have a new and really cool MBP.
I have a 2 year old Airport Express connected to a Motorola Cable Modem creating my wireless home net.
I also have a 2 years old iBook G4 with no problem connecting to the airport.
My new MBP has no problem too when is connected to the AC. BUT when I run my MBP from the battery, the connection drops out randomly.
It's annoying and I cannot find any helpfull support or working solution at Apple.com nor at the other similar thread on this forum. I've tried some proposed solutions. But none worked more than some minutes (which mean that actually they didn't work).
I have some questions about all this:
1) Anybody knows if this is a Hardware or a Software issue?
2) Apple officially said anything about this problem?
3) Can I use my purchase warranty in order to demmand a replacement?
4) Is there any official or unofficial solution that really works?
Please, help. I think it's very stupid to have a nice and really expensive laptop without real wireless capability,
Who want a wireless connection if you aren't able to use it when you are not connected to the AC????
If I was running Vista on Dell or HP laptop I would understand. But on a Mac???
COME ON APPLE!!!!!
This is the 2nd BIG problem I am facing with my new MBP since I bought it on July. I am frustrated and tired. First I couldn't use Motion 3 for like a month because of a bad update. Now I realize the wireless capability is crap.
I have the feeling that the older Apple Computers are better... at least they work!

I had the same problem on my MacBook Pro for the last month or so after "updating" to 10.4.10. Yesterday I tried Loki's fix but couldn't connect at all after that. So I did an archive/install of 10.4.9 and it works better than ever before. I get full signal and it is a lot snappier and faster. The problem is likely in the 10.4.10 update, hopefully Apple will get that fixed in 10.4.11

Hi there,
I have exactly the same problem, all lights are on but no connectivity. A reboot of the router always fixes it, but frankly I shouldn't have to do that.
The wireless interface is incredibly flaky too, it's constantly dropping out and only a restart will fix it. BT support told me this is caused by interference and I couldn't be bothered to argue with them. Sounds like a new router may be the way to go.
Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,
Justin

Internet Connection Drop Outs when remote administ...

I did not want to trouble anyone here if I thought it unnecessary but now I feel that I do need some assistance so this warrants opening a new thread.
BT Infinity Option 2 customer with BT HH 4 and its separate modem - not hacked so cannot read any useful information or login to see what is going on and both BT and the manufacturer long ago removed the open source code of the modem.
I am quite confident now that these disconnections happen when a remote server/attacker attempts to gain access to my network. These can be from China, Iran and other places too. Sometimes Ministry of Defence? I don't know why I get these connection attempts and most of the time I see BT HH 4 does block these so why I get disconnected I have no idea?
I made a post in an old thread before opening this thread and said it was due to firmware upgrade but I misread the date! It was not updated since the 8th of May I think. These disconnections have been happening only this past 4-7 days with the most 4 days with intensity greater than the 3 before. I am not 100% certain it is caused by the remote administration that is blocked.
What happens when this takes place is the BT servers are then unreachable sometimes and I cannot regain a connection for up to 3 hours at a time, usually it is 5-10 mins max though. Without looking at my event log, any ideas?
I want to get different gear now and never wanted to use BT equipment anyway because I want greater control and options to configure. I would like to go with DD-WRT or OpenWRT Router with Integrated VDSL v2 modem. Anyone here that may suggest one that supports either of these open firmwares? Not so much the concern to prevent any security holes or backdoors but just as much if not more for versatility and configuration and just having control over my network. being able to do upgrades when I want and not when my ISP decides needs doing. And before you say BT do not have backdoors then why would they admit they can remote login to devices and storage contents with their pwerline adapters even. I remember reading a news article quoting BT as admiting this. Anyway, that is not my main concern here, as much as privacy and security is not a crime it is rather rare online. First I need to get to the root cause of this.
BT HH 4 is not reporting any DDOS attacks and even if it were I would not expect to experience any disconnection. I used to get tons of floods from DDOS attacks years ago when using Netgear routers and never exeprienced any downtime, but that was with another ISP. I don't detect any malware or anything like that and rarely download anything on this machine, I know web browsing can infect a system but I don't think that is it.
I want to go back to how I used to do things. Any help with this is appreciated. I will need to get my router login details because I was never given those when I singed up with BT Infinity Option 2. I don't even know what my BT email is but do believe there is a way to recover that under my account. **In the past we have had intermittent connection drops and loss of sync but this is not the same right now.
Edit:
** Just to clarify that was before we upgraded to BT Infinity Opt 2. This is the first time any probs with this service since upgrade and that must be about 6 months or more now.

When running BT HH diagnostic it printed out that the username for login had changed and needed resetting or for me to enter my own in that I was NOT given! Anyway, when going to select manual reset it had not changed from default at all so I think this is just some default BT diagnostic that is false. I realise that other BT customers are affected by this with the BT HH5 but mine is HH4...my posting probably isn't as clear right now as I have not slept as much past few nights trying to figure this out. This is happening at different times of the day but more often during early hours.
So I am getting these WGET TLS error(s)
How do I enter in log excerpt from BT HH? Forums says my post exceeds 20K chars...

Internet connection dropping out throughout day; problem NOT with provider

My computer's connection to the Airport Express base station has no problems at all. But the internet connection goes out literally dozens of times a day (at no predictable schedule); this has been happening for almost a month. I originally thought the problem was with the internet provider, but I'm now beginning to think that either my settings are wrong, or that I have a corrupt file somewhere. Here are the details:
I connect via a cable modem (Time Warner - Road Runner). I know people have had problems with Time Warner, so I assumed that was the issue; however I've had 3 service calls and they've checked signal strength inside and out, and swapped out the modem and the cables. I don't think it is simply problems in our geographic area (i.e. greater Los Angeles) due to the fact that the Internet fails sometimes 40-50 times daily, and the problem began when I upgraded from an old Airport base station to a brand new Airport Express about a month ago.
The airport/internet connection is shared 3 ways: two MacBook Pro computers and one iPhone. My Airport's internet settings are as follows:
Configure IPv4 using DHCP.
DNS Servers: 66.75.160.63 and 66.75.160.64 (note I have already tried swapping these for OpenDNS -- this did NOT solve the problem)
Domain name: socal.rr.com
DHCP Client ID: [blank]
Ethernet WAN port: Default-Automatic
Connection Sharing: Share a Public IP address
DHCP Beginning Address: 10.0.1.2
Ending Address: 10.0.1.200
DHCP Lease: 4 hours
NAT settings are all unchecked
One of the main reasons I believe that the problem is with my computer's settings or a corrupt file is that I can fix the problem whenever the Internet "goes down" almost 100% of the time by doing the following: after loading Airport Utility, I make ANY trivial change (i.e. changing the DHCP lease from 4 hours to 5 hours) and then click UPDATE to refresh the Airport base station. This fixes the problem almost 100% of the time. But then, anywhere from 10 minutes to 3 hours later, the Internet connection goes down again. [Unplugging the power from the modem, waiting 30 seconds, and plugging it back in ALSO fixes the problem almost 100% of the time, until it goes out again a little while later.]
Also, I have tried disconnecting Airport and connecting directly to the cable modem via Ethernet. The problem remains exactly the same -- I can connect, but then the connection fails soon after. Unplugging then replugging the modem fixes the problem temporarily. So I do not think the problem is a defective Airport base station, nor do I think it is the modem (which has been replaced), nor Time Warner.
I can't think of what else to try -- but any advice would be greatly appreciated -- it's impossible for us to work with the Internet constantly going out throughout the day, every day.
Thank you!

10 or more connections drop outs a day

Hello everyone this is my first post here so hopefully you'll be gentle. After having sky bb for over 4 years i decided to change to bt after the consatnt connection drops. Anyway i ordered bt broadband in nov 2010, and recieved it in feb 2011 (i know buts a long frustrating story) . My broadband is pretty much the same , i would love to phone up bt , but after the nightmare i had getting the broadband i dont want to talk to any overseas ppl , as i cant understand them and they cant understand me . Maybe beacause i talk fast and from newcastle..I have my stats here but im unsure how to read them. I would love if any of you can give me any help.. Thanks in advance ..

How do I make a CD from a BBC Radio 4 programme I have recorded using EyeTV

I am using a MacBookPro OS 10.7.5
I have tried in vain using Toast 7 Titanium Version 7.1 to make a CD from four 15-minute BBC radio programmes recorded on EyeTV DTT Version 3.5.4. I cannot get Toast, set for Audio, to accept the four files.
I would also like to make a CD from a MPEG-1, Layer 3, 12.9 MB audio file which is encoded with LAME 3.98.
I recently bought Wondershare, but am having difficulty in using it also.
I would be eternally grateful to anybody who could talk me through this. Thank you.

MPEG StreamClip isn't exactly intuitive in its operation. Here's another method you coiuld try (no guarantees).
Download VLC Media Player (free).
Drag the file onto the icon for the player (probably you will have a .ts file). From the File menu choose Streaming/Exporting Wizard.
Select Transcode/Save to file; select File.
Tick Transcode Audio: choose Codec - Uncompressed, integer 512kb/s
Tick Choose and give it a name. It will save as a .wav which should burn in Toast.
Alternative method: get Audio Hijack Pro ($32), then you can play the original file and record it to WAV or AIFF file in real time.

Wireless connection drops out for no reason

I have a macbook with 10.4.11 update. I had my macbook since october last year and had no problems. About two months ago now i have this problem were my wireless connection drops for no reason, my modem/router shows everything is working normal with its lights on the front panel.
My setup is, motorola sbg900 on a cable 80000mbps wireless network, firewall off on my modem, firewall on on my mac (its always been on), Playstation 3(wireless), PC(wireless, but is switched off), another pc which is wireless and also off, nintendo wii off as well, and a baby monitor.
I have a feeling its nothing to do with my setup(except for maybe port forwarding) but am wondering if it is an update issue bug that needs to be fixed(thats what im hoping).
One other thing, when my connection drops in the menu bar and i select it to see which networks are availale, my network motorola8566 is not visible, another 'motorola9522' and 'wireless' network is?My prefered networks dont list any of these in system preferences. Then all of a sudden those other networks dissapear, my network is reshown and i can select it no propblems. What gives? Any help would be great, thanx in advandce

I have the same issue with my wireless connection being dropped. I have the most recent version of leopard 10.5.2 . The other macbook in this household also has 10.5.2 and has no problems with dropped connections. I tried resetting the pram which helped at first until I used my macbook on the battery alone the problem started to reoccur. Help?!?

Connection drop outs & lots of errors reported

Hello,
I've been having countless issues with my broadband connection dropping 4 or 5 times a day at least for about the last 12 months. A BT engineer visited my property earlier this year as a result of problem (Which I assumed to be my homehub 2.0 at the time), the engineer said that there were lots of errors reported on the line and as far as I'm aware he replaced a section of the cable from the road to my house but there has been no improvement (If anything it's actually worse now).
I was sent out the BT Homehub 3.0 believing that it could possibly be my Homehub 2.0 that was failing but I found that was even worse than the old Hub 2.0.
I've tried contacting the broadband technical department a few times this week but was told by the automated service that BT were experiencing "major technical problems" and to call back at a later time.
I'm at a loss as to what the problem could actually be now, (I've had the line checked, taken the cover off the openreach facia and plugged directly into the socket, changed filters countless times and even tried multiple hubs from both BT and bought a Netgear router but no change).
So I'm left posting a message in here to see if someone can once and for all sort my broadband gremlins out .
I've posted some stats reported from my hub as of 1pm on the 14/10/11 :

Its not the speed that is the issue(even though that's not great), It's the drop outs which are becoming more and more frequent and a lot worse since the engineer visited to replace a section of my line.
For what I need the internet for its starting to become a burden rather than a help.
Here are the BT speedtest results anyhow :
Download speedachieved during the test was - 2250 Kbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 1200-4000 Kbps.
IP Profile for your line is - 2469 Kbps

Speed falling, connection drops out

My BB speed used to be about 5.4Mb. Then BT upgraded the exchange and it fell a bit. Then it suddenly dropped to 288K - after 2 weeks I called BT and an engineer came round. He said the drop in speed was caused by me turning off the router during the day and at night - the new exchange needed me to leave it on; he got the speed reset and it was about 7Mb for a week, then dropped to 2Mb - now is at about 6K and I assume will keep falling.
I leave the router on 24/7 as the engineer said I should (though I am NOT happy to do this as it uses power and as it gets warm it could be a fire risk) - but about 1 in 3 days the connection has dropped by the time I get home from work, or it drops overnight.
I am using a Netgear router that has NO issues before the exchange was 'upgraded'.
(When the connection 'drops' the router shows the internet connection is active but the PPP has failed).
Please BT - un-upgrade the exchange (Bristol BS3) so I can have a reliable usable connection again.

Hi Peg
Welcome to the forums.
Can you email us at [email protected] with your account details and a link to this thread. Can run some diagnostics from this end to see why your connection has dropped so much.
Cheers

When in googlemail firefox keeps connecting dropping out and reconnecting,and crashing.

When in googlemail inbox, Firefox constantly keeps dropping out and reconnecting,(as seen in the tab) and often crashes when one is writing or sending a message.

Try to start Firefox with the about:blank page by creating a copy of the current Firefox desktop shortcut and add a space and <b>-url "about:blank"</b> to the target field.
Try to delete the sessionstore.js file in the Firefox profile folder to prevent restoring the crashed session.

Error streaming BBC radio feeds through RealPlayer...

Problem
I am experiencing a problem with the version of Realplayer Mobile pre-loaded on a Nokia E90 running Symbian S60 (version s60.30.19.02M 10-May-2007 09:58:18). The problem occurs when trying to stream the BBC live radio feeds at www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/radio/listen after selecting an ‘RM’ feed there is a couple of seconds pause followed by the error message “Disconnected. Try connecting again?”
Environment
The phone is connecting through my home wifi router (a Netgear WGT624v2) which acts as my network hub. This network hub services a home PC and a work laptop base station, via Ethernet cables, and also to various wifi devices such as PSP’s, laptops and the phone.
The internet connection is supplied by a broadband router (an SMC SMC7404 BRA UK) connected into the wifi network hub via Ethernet
All devices – the mobile, the hub, the broadband router – are running on the current firmware versions.
The wifi connection to the phone works for both web and email. Realplayer mobile plays video and music files.
Further Information
I can successfully stream the www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/radio/listen feeds over my home PC (Windows XP service pack 3) using RealPlayer (Version 11.0.3 Helix Powered Build: 6.0.14.806) which obviously routes through the wifi hub and the broadband router.
On casting around various forums I notice that there may be an issue with Realplayer mobile using different ports than Realplayer. Although, there seems to be no official information on the port settings someone has suggested the range of 6970 to 7170 on UDP is correct. Although, I’m uncomfortable opening such a large range I have allowed port forwarding on the wifi hub to the mobile (no, the mobile is not using a static IP address but I have confirmed that the IP address is correct).
I have also opened both 6970 and 7170 ports on the broadband router for UDP (note not the full range.
Correspondingly, the Realplyer mobile Streaming settings on the phone are :
Proxy->Use Proxy : “No”
Network->Default Access point: “mywifihub”
Network->Online Time: “Unlimited”
Network->Lowest UDP port: “6970”
Network->Highest UDP port: “7170”
Help ?
I’m obviously looking for some guidance here. Can someone please solve my problem ?
I’d like to know:
• Why is realplayer mobile is connecting in a different way to realplayer ?
• What are the ports that realplayer mobile requires, and why does it need them ?
• Is there anything else I need to do to get this thing working ?
Many Thanks,
colin

The mobile listening page on the BBC site is OK for live streams, but if you want to listen to programmes that have already been broadcast, you need to go to the "listen again" page.
I have this working today, perhaps because the BBC have fixed it (I'm sure I tried the same thing the other day).
Here is an example for Radio 3:
* Go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio3/listen/index.shtml
* Find the paragraph that starts: "But if you want to listen to a programme broadcast in the last 7 days..."
* Click on the link: BBC Radio3 iPlayer
* Choose the programme you wish to listen to. Episodes of
daily programmes can be found for the week after they have been broadcast: click on "show more episodes"
* Click on the link of the programme you wish to hear.
* A message comes up, inviting you to click on a link to listen in Real Player
* Click that and Real Player opens. Adjust volume using right or left joystick button.
You cannot fast forward or rewind programme, but at least you can listen.
Wonderful. My only minor gripe now is the number of clicks necessary, but at least it works.
A quicker way, and definitely the best of you are using a normal computer rather than a smart phone, is to go to the programme's own page, and follow the link to the last programme(s). On S60 you get the invitation to click to open real player for less than a second, followed by the suggestion to instal Real Player.
Check it out in a few days, when I guess they'll have fixed this much more practical route.
Do post back if this works for you, or if anything is not clear.
I tried this on an E90, but I suppose any S60 phone should handle it.

Wi-Fi connection drops out on Satellite P100-354

Hi,
hope someone can help me.
Mz Wi-Fi Connection keeps droppimg off. Sometimes it works for hors and sometimes it happens after some minutes.
I have a P100-354 with Windows Media Center Edition. My wifi card is a Intel Pro/Wireless 3945 ABG Net.
I installed the latest driver from the Intel page (Version 10.5.1.72) - No success.
I dont think it´s the router (Speedport W700) because it never happens with my work laptop.
Hope you can help me out - any help appreciaed!
Thanks in advance!!

Hi, perhaps you should try let the intel card do the wifi connection, and not windows; of course, you know that in 'properties' of the wifi connection in 'tcp/ip : properties : 'obtain an IP address automatically,and 'obtain DNS server address automatically' is ok, then 'advanced : in 'WINS' - enable LMHOSTS lookup and - enable Netbios over TCP/IP is turned on. Save this configuration.this configration is mine caus i use a router. If you use a fixed TCP/IP address then the configuration is otherwise.
Then go to the properties of intel pro wireless for configuring the wifi connection and normally there shoudln't be no problem.

Streaming bbc radio, connection drops out, have to manually reload.
