Sudden drop of performance

Hi All.
I have had BT BB for well over a year with zero proat all, until recently
for the last week or so my connection to the net will just drop out, the router stays connected but pages will time out and then all of a sudden it will work fine again for a few minutes.
these are my stats just now after a reboot of the router and connection to the master socket.
CRC's are probably the problem, but I have not touched the connection etc, so the problame has to be with either my line or at BT's end.
any ideas on how to solve the problem's?

sorry but does your internet connection remain ok but you have problems getting pages to load - you are not dropping internet connection? with the manual reset <10min ago it is a very short time to see if there is an error problem
your noise margin is set at the new 'norm' of 3db which is normally used for good lines but sometimes it does couse problems especilly at night as the noise margin erodes and errors increase. do you find problem mainly at night?

Radeon HD 6750M - Sudden drop windows 7 user experience index scores and performance in Battlefield 3

Ok I have a strange problem regarding the performance of my graphics card Radeon HD 6750m in my bootcamped window 7 and maybe in OSX,here's what happened.
Firstly I noticed this when going to load up Battlefield 3 which has been ruining fine on low settings since it first came out, but today i loaded the game as usual and when i started playing i noticed that the performance had completely bogged down to about 1 fps and had became unplayable so had a look at the video settings and they were all the same (set to the lowest possible) so i quit the game and restarted the game/machine a couple of time but no change, still completely unplayable for no apparent reason.
So next a checked my Windows user experiance index number and notice that windows had detected changes in my hardware so i ran the test again, previously my scores were
cpu: 7.5
ram: 7.6
graphics: 6.9
gamming graphics: 6.9
Hdd:5.9
overall score 5.9
the new test results came in and every things else had stayed the same apart from the two relating to the graphics had some how changed, the new results were:
cpu:7.5
ram:7.6
graphics: 3.9
gaming graphics: 5.7
overall score
I was completely confused how such a drop in performance could happen as i have not changed any of the hardware? is almost like the performance has halved relating to my gpu.
I have tried reinstalling drivers but still no resolution
I was wondering if anyone else had had this problem and what the possible causes could be and how a could fix this
my hardware is:
MacBook Pro 17-inch, Early 2011
Processor 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6750M 1024 MB
hdd: 750 GB

Yeah its all very strange, in my opinion it must be something to with the drivers. After I had relised that something had seriously changed with my hardware setup in the way windows recognizes the graphics card, I tried reinstalling different versions of the drivers for the AMD Radeon HD 750M and one version gave me a small improvement of about 0.2 in the windows user experience thing scale in the category that scores the graphics (cant remember which version the driver was was as it was a spur of the moment thing) so could be a driver problem but it was working fine using the preview drivers AMD provided on their web site before.
I have also tried using the the original disk that bootcamp created during the install to re-install origianl divers (basically all the necessary drivers for windows to recognise hardware in Macbook Pro) and that never made any difference.
This also happened before the windows update that you wrote about Cuziuzi (its was an optional update for the windows 64bit) because I installed this after battlefield 3 had died on me thinking it might resolve the problem.
on a sidenote steam is refusing to lauch games on osx and i'am the process of re-downloading the game again to try and fixes the issue (have only got L4D2).
I am going to look into it tomorrow and try to figure out what the problem is and post some info about drivers specifications and some more clarifying information.
Hopefully my GPU is not in the process of dying on me after the constant heat bombardment it has to endure thanks to Apples great design philosophy of visual aesthetics over functionality, fingers crossed Battlefield has not fried it!
Also cziuzi what's ur hardware specs?

When I am on Firefox, my Netzero email page suddenly dropped to very small print. AOL OK. How do I increase size of the print so I can read the email?

I was using Firefox to read my Netzero email. The print suddenly dropped down to very small and I have difficulty reading the email. Netzero said to oper Mozilla Firefox, click "tools", click "options", and click "content" to change the font to a bigger size. But when I clicked the brown "Firefox" button on the Firefox page, I do not see the buttons Netzero told me to click. Can you tell me what they are referring to or just tell me how to increase the size of the font when I am reading email on Netzero. AOL email font size was not affected when I clicked AOL to read the email there.

Sudden drop in transfer speed

I have been trying out a WRT1900AC router for about a week and just developed a MAJOR drop in speed from the router to the computer while doing a file transfer:
This thing has been sending files to and from the router's esata and USB3 port at over 50 MB/s until just now.
I can still write to the drives attached to the router at 50MB/s + all day long. Getting files from the drives have suddenly dropped to 300Kb/s on the esata and the USB3 ports
Tried rebooting/powercycling the router, disconnected the drives and reconnected them, same result.
Anyone else run into this?
Funny, I just got done posting in another thread how fast this thing moved files to and from external storage. Now this,,,,,,
Maybe the universe is telling me not to keep this router?

1. What file sizes do you usually transfer? What are the file types?
For testing I used larger files (IE: ISO files, larger zipped files, etc.) rather than just copying folders or small files.
2. Are the files being transferred to and from your computer and a storage drive (hooked to the WRT1900AC)?
Files were moved all over: from a WD Mycloud (hooked up to 8 port gigabit netgear switch) to my computer. Also have a Toshiba 1TB USB3 drive plugged into the WRT1900AC USB3 port and an older WD 2 x1TB enclosure hooked into the WRT1900AC via the eSATA port. For testing I moved files all over the place: From the Esata to the computer, to the USB drive, to the WD Mycloud and back again. Also mixed up going from point A to B, then from point C to point B, etc. In all cases the slowest speed I get is 50MB/s + with some transfers topping out at 90MB/s!!!
3. If it's a storage drive, does it have USB3 ports as well?
Yes
4. What is the link speed of your computer?
Wired Gigalan
Routers do not usually need to be rebooted every now and then. They should be running 24/7. My guess is, the wired or wireless adapter may have adjusted speeds consequently dropping file transfer speeds.
Agreed. I can count on one hand how many times I had to reboot my last router over the 2+ years I had it.
Heres the other thing: the need to reboot is not just associated with file transfers. I get the "cant connect with the WRT1900AC" message just going into the user interface from time to time as well as being unable to see storage folders in Windows explorer from time to time. In these cases I can still go online, surfing and doing whatever. The router (according to the Smartlink page) just seems to disappear. Which doesnt make sense since if the router cant be seen online, how is it that I can still go online?
Anywho, I still have this week before I lose the ability to return/exchange it at Best Buy. Will see how things go.
And thanks for the reply and suggestions,,,,,,,,,,

BT Got back 24hrs later and said there was a fault between exchange and our house which was now fixed, however, no explanation whether this was the cause of the previous problems. Also, yesterday evening HH4 rebooted and after checking the event logs a new PPoE session had started. Called them again and they told me BT would still be carrying out checks on the line - whether that was the case or not I'm not sure as that happened at the start of all this three weeks ago (a new PPoE session started during middle of night) prior to this everything was fine since installation on 31st July.
Also ip profile has dropped from approx 38Mbps to 34Mbps since installation and no-one can explain why.

BT Inifinity - Speed and Latency - Sudden Drop in ...

Hi All,
I hope someone can help me here, I'm really just looking for some advice and an opinion. I have had BT Infiinity for around a year now, and, barring the first few weeks, i have had a stable connection of around 68000kbps down (sync) and 20000kbps up (sync), with a usually low ping of around 5ms to most UK Servers.
The last few weeks i have had a sudden drop in sync to around 54000kbps, showing attainable as 62000kbps, up speed has also dropped a few meg. to top this off, the interleaving depth has gone from a solid fast-path that i used to have, and was completely stable. to a depth of 1050 (down), up is strangely still on fast-path though.
do you think i have a line fault or is something effecting noise on my line? The biggest bug bear for me about this is the latency, as I am an an avid online gamer, when I'm not working or entertaining my 1 year old son.
Before i even touch a gaming server, i seem to have a ping of around 20-35ms, which as other gamers will know, is not good.
i have included a few graphs for the ones who know more about VDSL than i do, as my FEC errors seem unusually high.
Thanks in advance peeps :-)

Hi john014,
Thanks for posting. Have you tried the quiet line test? Dial 17070 option 2, it should be quiet but if you’re getting any noise on the line we’ll need to look into that for you.
If it’s all clear can you try posting a few tracerts i.e. one to the game and one to the BC site for comparison. I’m sure we can help with this.
Cheers
David

Sudden drop of speed - internet vitually unusable ...

Hi all
I had a look round the service status page and saw nothing for my area, so wondering if it's just me, but last night as I was playing my usual evening online poker, I basically lost all connection.
Now, I'm on Total Broadband Unlimited, have a Home Hub v2, and have done since February. Am in the WD17 area, and nothing has changed from when it's been working fine all these months.
So, as I was merrily playing along, the 54.0 Mbps connection suddenly drops out to..... 1.0 Mbps. And stays there. Do a Hub reset - no improvement.
So come back from work today to see if there's any improvement - and marginally. It's now randomly fluctuating between 2, 11, 15, 18 & 54. Still pretty much unusable.
Any ideas?

Drop in performance after installing kb3020114

Hi, few days ago all my programs and apps started working slower for no particular reason. Web browser needs more time to load websites(especially those that are using flash), weather app takes a long time to load and the game I've been playing(LoL) has
sudden drops of FPS. Does anyone else noticed anything wrong? I'm not sure if this is this update but after restoring system before it was installed everything went back to normal, until it has installed again.

Audio Suddenly Drops Out

I have produced a video using FCE 4 that is approximately 34 minutes in length. Pretty standard football highlights video with 10 separate chapters. The projects ends with a number of photos set to music (approx the last 4 minutes of the video).
The final product plays just fine in FCE, in the .mov file, and after exporting to iDVD. I have burned 3 disks so far in iDVD and about 31 minutes in (after several photos) the music track cuts out. I have done several projects like this before and never experienced a sudden drop out of the music. I am using the new iLife 11 which I believe iDVD is the same as '09.
Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong here? I read that it may have to do with Chapters which makes little sense because the .mov file and iDVD versions play fine.
Any help would be appreciated!

OK, here is what I have done and I am still experiencing the same exact issue:
1. Created 35 minute video using FCE 4. Couple hundred pieces of video sewn together in the first 9 chapters and about 240 photos (shown at 2 second intervals) in the last chapter of the video
2. Created both a mixed down and non-mixed down version
3. Exported using Quicktime Movie
4. The .mov versions of both movies play all the way through with no issues. Entire video, audio, and music all in tact and play seamlessly
5. Created DVD's using iDVD.
6. About 104 picture into the last chapter, or at the 31:08 mark the pictures continue to the end and the audio (music) mutes. This happens exactly at the same time on both the mixed down and non mixed down versions.
7. I went back to test the original FCE file and it is good all the way through, I also tested the .mov versions and both (mixed down and non mixed down versions) are good, I also tested the iDVD file and both versions play all the way through on my iMac.
8. DVD's both lose the audio at the same time.
Aaaaarggggghhhhh! Thanks in advance for any helpful solutions.

Sudden improvement in Performance

Hi,
Other day we reduced flash cache   to 180 G from 560 (as per the doc, flash cache should be between 2 to 10 times of the SGA,our case it's 24 g)
After that performance improved considerably.I came to know that the sudden   enhancement was due to release of certain amount of
memory which was held for storing the   details of the blocks in the flash cache
i.e
For every block   flash cache , at least 200 bytes (2.4%) are reserved in buffer cache for keeping the metadata .
So in the earlier case (flash cache as 560 g)
560 *2.4% =13.44 g is reserved in the db cache.But after the reduction to 180 it became 4.32 .
So shall I assume that this increase    of 9 g in db cache is the sole reason for the sudden improvement in performance?
Anybody having any different idea ,please share ...
Platform OEL 5.5
Version 11.2.0.2 (3 node RAC)
db_block_size 8192

Volume suddenly drops in iTunes 11.1.4, on 10.9.1

Volume suddenly dropped to VERY low. Turning off sound check helped sligtly, but levels are still abnormally low. This symptom only exists when iTunes is the playbac device. All other sound sources (QuickTime Player, Peak, Logic, DVD Player, etc.) behave normally. What is wrong?

Never mind... somehow I moved the iTunes master volume down!!!! Argh!

Im using phone 3GS 32GB, my signal was very poor but whenever i insert my sim to other phone, there's no signal problem.. When i change position, the signal suddenly dropped. my software version now is 4.3.5.

GoodReaderUSB originally worked by transferring files to a special location on a user’s iPhone, which iPhone’s GoodReader app was able to access. However, accessing this location was a violation of Apple’s iPhone SDK Agreement, because the app had to access files outside its own private storage space, which is forbidden by Apple.
Because of this, your only choice to fix this. at this point, may be to restore your phone as a "new" device in itunes and NOT from backup. Follow this by syncing your content back to your phone. Unfortunately, ALL saved data on your phone will be lost.

Broadband speed suddenly dropped

For the last 7 months we have had good BB speeds of around 6Mbps this has suddenly dropped down to under 0.5Mbps.
I have reset the Home Hub 2 & had it plugged directly into the test socket on the master unit which has not changed anything.
I ran the BT Speedtest which gave the following:
Download speedachieved during the test was - 414 Kbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 50-500 Kbps.
Additional Information:
Your DSL Connection Rate :5824 Kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 448 Kbps(UP-STREAM)
IP Profile for your line is - 500 Kbps
I did notice the blue "b" led flashing yellow a lot last eve, far as I know this means the Hub is updating itself
Any ideas?
Thanks
Dave
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Welcome to the forums
If you post the full stats from your router
For homehub – type 192.168.1.254 into your browser
Navigate to ADSL Settings or use the A-Z at the top right of the home page and scroll down to ADSL Settings and click on it
Click on More Details and then post the full results.
Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal
your ip profile is low this is due to disconnections and providing you can maintain a stable connection with no hub restarts for the next 3/5 days your profile should increase automatically this will then improve your download speed
Then someone here may be able to help and offer more advice.

T430s battery capacity sudden drop

Hi, I have a look at my battery report today and found something really awkward. I bought the computer seven months ago, and the battery start with Design capacity 44,000wWh, while the full charge capacity is quite closer to the design capacity. However in the battery report it shows that two weeks ago the design capacity suddenly drop from 44000 to 40734mWh in one week, and then afterwards it drop to 39000mWh. And the actual full charge capacity seems to linger around 37000mWh. Is there something wrong or is my battery just wear out naturally? Best,Eddy

Full charge capacity will decline with battery age and number of recharge cycles. Lenovo warrants their batteries for 1 year. IIRC if the full charge capacity drops below 80% of design capacity in the first year you are eligible for a new battery. 80% of 44,000mWh is ~35,000mWh. I would keep an eye on full charge capacity over the remaining 5 months of your warranty.
