Switch from Home Broadband to Business ... modem hates me now

So we deicded to switch our service at home to business as we run a home business. The "reverse migration" took forever, we never received the email letting us know it had finally happened our net just stopped working, and when i rang telstra they informed me we were business now.. We were given a new sign in for the modem of an @direct.telstra.net address which i entered, applied and hey presto net was back, then it was gone. Restarted the modem AGAIN, checked it and the sign in had reverted back to our home plan sign in. I re entered the business log in, applied and hey presto net again.... It lasted a week EXACTLY and now tonight ive had to restart and reenter the business sign for about the last 4 hours. Anyone had similar? Anyone able to help??? We are using the telstra provided modem TG 797 

If it's pulling the residential details from them then yes there is a system on their end that needs updating.
When you connect to the server it see the 'MAC' address of your modem. This is a unique serial number/fingerprint that no other device has.
It is then checking this MAC against it's database and saying, oh this modem doesn't have the 'right' details in it and that means this customer might not be able to connect to the internet. So via the TR-069 (technical jargon) protocol it sends the username and password directly to the modem and says these are the right details, use these.
However, as you know, those details are in fact now wrong. So Telstra need to update the system that is sending the details to either stop doing so, or to use the new business username/password.

    I switched from an iPhone to an LG g2, but now all my iMessages keep going to my old iPhone rather than the new one.  I know the resolution to the problem is to turn off my iMessage, but I no longer have the iPhone because I sold it to the phone carrier.  Question is how do I turn my iMessage off through a computer that is not a mac.

  • Switch from BT Broadband to BT Infinity

    Hi,
    We've just upgraded from BT Broadband to Infinity 1 at home but we're have a lot of problems with it!
    1) Wireless connection problem - When we upgrade we kept the original BT Hub 3 which has always worked fine, but since the openreach engineer came its been very problematic! We got told no settings needed changing but the Hub now won't let my Windows 7 laptop in all the time! If I'm in the same room as it I have about 1 in 9 chance of a connection, but in my bedroom above the Hub ( where I've never had problems before! ) I have zero chance!!! This is dispite at WiFi checker showing good sign!!
    I know its not the laptop as it still connects to my works BT Hub fine! ( Writing this at work )
    2) I know its only been installed 5 days but I'd of expected the connection to be more stable by now, the speed fluxs from 0.06 - 32!!
    Any ideas people?

    Problems like this can be resolved using Google you should be glad you have BT Infinity, I have been waiting 41 days just to get Infinity and nobody has responded to my help requests on my thread from BT Staff.

  • How do I switch from Home Sharing to my own account?

    I currently share an account with my family but I want to move my iPad to my own account without loosing everything on it. I could really use some help! Thanks

    Whenever you switch routers you must turn off the cable router for a period to allow it to reset the MAC address of the first device to connect. This can be 1min or 15min or longer.. so try shorter period first.. remember the first device that connects to the cable modem captures the IP.
    With the whole network off, wait a 1min (or longer) time.
    Power on the cable router.. wait 2min for the cable modem to stabilise and connect.
    Power on the TC, plugged in to modem.. wait 2min..
    Power on the clients.
    If it fails to pick up public IP redo with a longer time.
    But this only applies for a cable modem.. if is a modem router combined tell us and we can give a different setup.. ie bridged.

  • Ipad is switching from home screen to power up screen

    My ipad is jumping back and forth from the home screen with the slider bar to the power on screen with the apple logo.  it is completely unresponsive and when I do a reboot (holding power and app button for a few seconds) it powers off and powers off.  When I restart it does the same thing again.  any suggestions?

    Actually, if you're ever stuck, with the option to wait around while a big project opens to reselect and quit, or not, you can edit the XML directly in Textedit... In App Support/Color, the prefs file contains an entry like <singledisplaymode> (sorry I'm on an iPad ) which is Boolean - set it to true or false, save it et voilà!

  • Switching from Family Plan to Business account

    I have been a customer of Verizon for years & have boasted about the service they provide.  However, recently I have tried to change my account from a Family Plan (5 phones) to a Business Account (needing 7-10 phones) & found Verizon was far from accommodating.  After setting up the account with a rep, I was informed that my company did not have enough credit history & I would need to pay a $125 deposit PER PHONE.  This is insane.  I could understand if I were a new customer, but I have a perfect payment history with Verizon for the past 4-5 years & they want an $875 deposit just to change my plan.
    Oh, the rep was quick to inform me that I would receive my deposit back in a year with interest.  What an idiot...don't patronize me!  In a small business, cash is king.  Every dollar my company spends must see a 2 dollar return minimum....quickly.  Verizon is clearly making a statement that if you're an existing customer, they'll give you great service...but you're stuck in your plan.  Verizon also clearly has no intention in helping small businesses grow.
    In doing the math, I have found it cheaper to pay off & end my current Family Plan with Verizon & join Sprints business plan.  I really don't want to, but might have to....unless Verizon steps up & does the right thing.

    Verizon will screw small business out of money any way they can.  I got screwed when my business experienced call volume surge and incurred a massive overage amount. No notification from Verizon whatsoever.  They at least cut the overages in half.

  • Just switched from Qwest DSL to CableOne cable internet and now my mac won't connect to the internet.

    I've spent 2 hours on the phone with CableOne and they can't figure our why my MacPro isn't connecting to the internet through their Arris modem. I can connect to my network and see all my computers... so the ethernet port is working but the internet won't connect. I've tried Safari and Firefox browsers. My PC connects using the same ethernet cord with no problems. I've also tried connecting the computer directly to the modem with no results. And the ethernet port says it's connected and gives me an ip address. I'm out of ideas at this point. Any suggestions?

  • Switched from DSL to cable, need help getting TC back on line.

    I just switched from dsl to a cable modem to access the internet and my service provider doesn't offer support for my TC. Where can I find out how to change my settings (I guess from PPPOE to DHCP) to allow internet access from my wireless network? It seems like a matter of plugging the right numbers into the right place but I don't know where to find the numbers or where to put them exactly. Any help is appreciated.

    Hello Sivad72. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I suggest that you first perform a "hard" reset on your Time Capsule (TC). Then, perform a complete power recycle of your network components to get them "talking" again.
    Power Recycling Steps
    1. If the modem has a reset switch, use it to reset the modem. Wait at least 5-10 minutes for the modem to initialize.
    2. Remove power from the modem. If it has a backup battery, remove this as well. Wait 5-10 minutes. Replace the battery, and add power back to the modem.
    3. Perform a complete power recycle of your network components as follows:
    o Power-off the modem, TC, & computer(s); Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the TC; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the computer(s)
    4. Contact your ISP to have them perform a "modem reset."

  • From normal broadband to infinity

    Ok, So on Friday 7th i switched from bt broadband to bt infinity.Before the engineer left he logged onto his handheld using my wireless connection and showed me a film and how there was no buffering.I logged on my pc and speedtest.net gave me a test of 31mb.
      I was advised in next 3 days this would be up and down until it settled at the estimated speed i was given at around 64mb.So off he trots and i go out.When i get back i discover bb had dropped out.It came back on again and when i did a test it was at 0.2-0.4mbps..After phoning up i was told by bt this was because line was settling in for 3 days.
      I am pretty sure that in this period the speed should not be this low..it is at the point where it is useless.I tried explaining this but got nowhere.It is now Sunday and no better.

     Download speedachieved during the test was - 18.19 Mbps
     For your connection, the acceptable range of speedsis 16 Mbps-18.98 Mbps .
     Additional Information:
     IP Profile for your line is - 18.98 Mbps
    Well not what they told me i would get if i switched to infinity, and not what i got after engineer left.
    When i do test to see what my line is capable of it tells me a download speed of 62.8 mbps.When engineer left i was getting 32mbps.This was on wireless connection.I know i will loose some not being wired, but this result is pants compared to what i was told i would get and what i got in the first few hours of having infinity.
      I have always used wireless and was getting 17mbps on old BT Total Broadband,so are they telling me by getting infinity i get a 2mb increase?
    Great News! You can get superfast fibre optic BT Infinity
    62.7Mb* 
    Download speed
    20Mb* 
    Upload speed
     This is the result of the BT Speedchecker and what made me go for infinity

  • Switched from PC to Mac and syncing iPhone issues

    I switched from a PC to a Mac computer and now my iPhone 4th generation will no longer sync to iTunes.  Any suggestions?

    Is you computer authorized for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase the apps (in iTunes>Store>Authorize This Computer)?   Did you check "Sync Apps" on the apps tab of your iTunes sync settings and check the apps you want to sync?
    For contacts, are you trying to sync your contacts with a supported program on your computer such as Outlook?  Did you check to do so on the Info tab of your iTune sync settings?  Caution: be sure not to sync with an empty contacts or calendar app or you will lose both.  Be sure there is at least one contact and one calendar event on your computer prior to syncing, which will trigger a merge or replace prompt when you sync (choose merge).
