This router has mind of it's own "linksys-n" unsecure keeps popping up with wireless disabled

I bought this router WRVS4400Nv2 recently and I have been behaving strange since then and here are a few instances
1. Factory reset - Login to admin gui and it times out every few mins ( Which is normal ) but after a while it just gives up the time out feature. I can login to the console on a dozen computers and leave it on forever and it would never timeout
2. Refuses any firmware upgrade not matter what I get from Cisco tech support even after a complete factory reset
3. Even with wireless completely disabled!! linksys-n pop's up every now and then with no security setting. Anybody can get in and snoop on your network.
4. I can go more and more but I will stop here
I know there are some back doors into this router which I tried after having this problem and I was shocked to see a product from cisco to a small business having such back door's hidden.
It's a shame that this product should ever be released in to this market with so many holes.
I spent hours with tech support and their answer was "Just return it or we can do a RMA".
Watch out before you buy this product. You will be naked in the network world with this product.
If anybody has a very good explanation to this, I would like to hear it from cisco 

I would then recommend to call the Cisco Small Business  Support Center, a list of phone numbers can be found at  :

  • My iphone 5 wont let me update apps keeps popping up with old apple id how do i fix this

    my iphone 5 wont let me update apps keeps popping up with old apple id how do i fix this??

    All apps downloaded/purchased are tied to the apple ID used to download/purchase them.
    If you change your Apple ID and do not wish to use the old apple ID and password to update them, you have to delete them and redownload or buy them under the new apple ID.

  • This Accessory Is Not Compatible....." Message Keeps Popping up!!

    This Accessory Is Not Compatible....." Message Keeps Popping up!!
    this keeps popping up without anything being plugged into it, it also kills my battery, My phone is about 18 months old and I dont think it is still covered under warranty. Any help?

    There's probably some debris in the docking port. Try cleaning it out with some canned air.

  • Difficulty Cropping - crop window has mind of it's own

    When I crop photos (Edit - Crop), the crop window has a mind of it's own.  I select crop, click and drag a corner or edge, and then another, and the window moves and resizes to something else.  It takes a number of tries moving the window or edges back and forth until I can get the crop that I want.  Note: I do not have the restrict aspect selected.  It's very anoying.  What to do?  (iPhoto '11 v9.4.2 on OSX 10.7.5)

    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
    (On 10.7 or later: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
    (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • My itunes keeps popping up with this; the itunes library .itl file cannot be found or created

    i found my itl files and even when i click on them it still pops up with that message what do i do?

    Hello EliCooper,
    It sounds like when you open iTunes, it says your iTunes Library.itl file cannot be located.  If you know where this is located, you need to point iTunes to this file to avoid the error message.  I found an article with the steps to choose your iTunes Library.itl file:
    Steps to create or choose a different iTunes Library file
    If iTunes is running, quit iTunes.
    If you are using Windows, hold down the Shift key and from the Start menu and choose All Programs > iTunes > iTunes.
    You should see one of the following screens:
    Once you get that dialogue box, you can click on Choose Library and navigate to your iTunes Library.itl file.

  • H520 PC has mind of it's own .....

    I have had a Lenovo H520 PC since August 2013. After a week or so the PC, having been closed down properly, would spontaneously start after a few minutes and occasionally after being 'off' for 30 minutes or so.  I contacted Lenovo who advised me to reset the PC. This did not solve the problem.   After a short time I contacted Lenovo support who agreed that there was a fault and arranged to have the PC uplifted for repair or replacement under warranty. It was uplifted and sent to Germany and after 2 weeks it was returned with a report saying that it had been repaired.  -
     Our service team has repaired your device
    and it has been fully tested. It is now technically
    sound and functioning perfectly.
    We trust you will enjoy it.

    After a couple of days the PC started to display the same fault and does so intermittently. Lenovo claim to have repaired the fault but there is no evidence of this.  Is this something I have to put up with indefinitely?  Am I over-reacting to what some may consider a minor fault?. Contrary to what Lenovo say, the PC is not functioning perfectly.

    On my PC, it was Microsoft scheduled tasks waking the computer. I examined the scheduled task list and disabled any (about 50 to 100) that were on a time schedule. That fixed the problem for me.

  • Power/Standby Button has mind of it's own.

    Tonight, after my iPhone working (almost) properly in the past, I checked it today and I was unable to turn it on by pressing the lock button. I then pressed the home button, unlocked it and when I tried to lock it, it would not respond to me pushing the button.
    Also - it is continuously trying to power down, I've tried hitting cancle and powering it down, niether seem to give me control again. When I do power down, it turns itself back on.
    I have had my phone for about two-three months and I have not abused it that much at all, I noticed about third week of having it that, at times, the only way it would turn on is if it was on the charger. This happened twice, once turning it on via the charger, it was fine the rest of the week.
    This glitch seems to have worn off.
    I was wondering, what is going on and what can I do?

  • I did something so that when I am on fb on this comp., I can't see anyones pics, or my own. I saw something pop up with the option to undo, but didnt get to it in time. I was right clicking on photos trying to copy and paste. Any one know what I did?

    When i right clicked on pic, an option was there .I can not remember what it said except something like "Block fb"

    You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
    *Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions" (e.g. sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net)
    *Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
    *Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    *Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • Downloaded an app and now my safari keeps popping up with ads and words are hyperlinked on webpages. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Hi,
    I was downloading Skype for mac last night, and now my safari isn't working correctly (has a lot of popups and and words are hyperlinked on my webpages I pull up now. I think I have the 'DownLite' trojan but I am unsure of how to get rid of it. I saw a post in March that Linc helped with describing how to fix it, but unfortunately, it didn't work for me (because I think mine is in a different folder but am unsure how to find it). I have the UNIX shell script diagnostic scan if needed. Can anyone help me get rid of this?? Thank you for your help!

  • Itunes won't install and keeps popping up with an error, any ideas on how to fix this?

    Alright so I had recently gotten an iPhone and it didnt recognize when i plugged it in. I tried a bunch of stuff and eventually deleted iTunes and anything along with it. When I tried to reinstall an error box kept popping up. And this happens EVERY time! I am really at a lost of what to do now because I really need iTunes back.

    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.)

  • My crazy Android has a mind of it's own!

    I have an Android HTC touch screen that I bought from Verizon last January 2012, actually two of them. I started having problems with one of the phones about 6 months ago with the screen not unlocking as though it was not responding to touch at all. A few months later the other phone started having the same problem only worse. It has gotten so bad that the phone seems to have a mind of it's own. I have watched it flip around wildly and call one of my contacts on it's own many times. I have even watched it get on the internet and apps all on it's very own. I was on the phone a fews weeks ago with Verizon CS Rep. about my Veroizon Bill. I mentioned the problems with my phone to the CS rep. I ask if Verizon knew of any problems like that with the Android and she said "No, but those touch screens are really touchy". I got online today to see what I could find out about problems with the Android HTC. There seems to be a long list of people having the very same problems with this model. I have shut it down and pulled the battery several times to try and reset it. It NEVER works. I have an 11 hour trip this weekend with a child. Could you please contact me today or tomorrow. Please contact me via email if I don't answer because I can never tell if my phone is going to let me answer it! You can also contact me on a land line for the next two days.
