Trouble with VPN and Verizon MI424WR router - not connecting to company intranet

I need to connect to my work intranet and via VPN. There was no problem accessing both when I had Verizon DSL. Since I switched to FIOS, I can access email via VPN but not my Company's internet and various internal company websites. I saw a previous forum with a similar problem using the Actiontec router, but wanted to make sure I tried a correct fix for my router. My router is connected via both Coax ad Ethernet to the ONT since I signed up for FIOS internet first and then added TV later. I don't know if both are active. I have a spare Linksys wireless G router I can add to the network if needed. My router firmware is 20.10.7.
Solved!

Thanks to all for the suggestions. I could not see how the VPN software was the culprit since it worked at various hotels, Panera bread ... but decided to try to uninstall and re-install the latest version. Viola, I am now working. I plan to leave the linksys router in the system since the speed is significantly faster.

Trouble with Sonos and Verizon FIOS

I am using a Sonos audio system with a Verizon FIOS ActionTec router. Periodically (every week or so) I lose the ability to connect to *some* Internet Radio stations. Some Internet Radio stations won't work at all, some work intermittently, and some work.
ALL of the "non-working" internet radio stations work just fine when I connect from my laptop using iTunes or other internet radio clients. i.e. I can rule out a problem with the internet radio station.
Other services on the Sonos work, both access to my local music collection and access to streaming internet services like Pandora. So I know my Sonos can connect to the internet.
Rebooting the Sonos doesn't resolve the problem. Rebooting the router doesn't solve the problem. Shutting everything down, waiting an hour, and re-starting it doesn't solve the problem.
The only thing I have found that solves the problem is resetting the router to it's default configuration.... Which is strange, since I have changed none of the configuration of the router. But clearly a "factory reset" clears something that a reboot doesn't.
I don't use the WiFi on the FIOS router... I have an Apple Time Capsule downstream of the FIOS router, and the Apple Time Capsule acts as my WiFi access point. So any deficiencies in the FIOS wifi support don't apply.
The ActionTec does provide DHCP and NAT, and of course provides routing between my LAN and Verizon.
My FIOS router is an ActionTec MI424WR-GEN2, running Firmware Version 20.10.7.5. My Sonos setup includes a ZP90 (Hardware version: 1.1.16.4-1, running software version: 3.3, build 14433290) and a ZoneBridge (Hardware version: 1.5.0.0-1, running software version: 3.3, build 14433290).... i.e. all current revs.
I am stumped by this problem, because *most* functions of the Sonos work when I have the problem (including other internet streaming), and internet radio works fine from other devices. If it were a DHCP problem I would expect my Sonos to lose ALL internet connectivity, but that isn't happening.
Any clues or suggestions?

spacedebris, the Sonos has a ZoneBridge which is wired (ethernet) to the Time Capsule (which, despite the name, is not only a network attached storage device but also an ethernet bridge and wifi hotspot.) The Sonos Zoneplayer connects wirelessly to the Sonos ZoneBridge.
While it is possiblle, I doubt that the problem is with the Sonos connectivity to the LAN. I can ping it, connect to it from the Sonos controller (actuall the Sonos controller App on iPad, iPhone, and laptop, which all work), it can access my music collection from my network attached storage (different device than the Time Capsule), and it can access Pandora streaming music over the internet.

DSL modem and Wireless G router not connecting.

Alright this one is weird for me. Two days ago I got a Wireless-G CISCO router. Or a WRT54G2 V 1.5 model. Now I set it up on my XP desktop and at first it seemed fine. I tried to get onto the internet and it wouldn't go. Then I tried to connect my laptop to the router and it succeeded, but the router couldn't connect to the internet.
After calling tec they told me that I need to fully bridge my modem. I'll list the specs down there later. Anyway I wen't back to my laptop, which has windows 7, and checked the router but it has a red X to the SSID and says "The settings saved on this computer for the network do not match the requirements of the network." And the other SSID's around me are fine. Let's not worry about my laptop though. Back to the desktop I learned that for whatever reason my address is 192.168.2.1 and that my modem needs to be fully bridged.
I got the internet to work, but it keeps cutting out. The problem is that the IP adress goes from 192. bla bla to 99. bla bla. It would do this every time I re-cycled the router. It would start at the 192. and give me perfect internet. Then it would switch IP after 30 secounds and go to the 99. which I couldn't do anything online. So do I have to bridge?
Router: Linksys WRT54G2 V1.5
Modem- siemens DSL speedstream 4100
Host computer- XP professional

Oh and would there be a chance the router and modem are all together not compatible?
Thanks

Need help with WRT600N and Verizon FIOS router

The standard Verizon router doesnt have Wireless N capability, so I got the WRT600N (first floor) a while back and connected it to one of the ports on the Verizon router (basement). I have the wirelss turned off on Verizon router.
My problem is that anything connecting to the WRT600N has extremely intermittent connectivity. I have tried to go in to make a bridge between the devices but that hasnt helped.
If anyone could offer me some suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it.
~Christian

Did you disable the DHCP server on the WRT600? I also disabled the firewall as well.

My Verizon MI424WR router resets and drops all client connections without my intervention

I have noticed my devices lose their Verizon MI424WR router and Internet connection (wired and wireless alike) for some time now (months) on a regular basis. Sometimes multiple times a day and at different times of the day. You typically have to be actively using a device to notice these events. I have one client that will display an "Internet Connection Restored" message until I return to view it and I can see that this happens quite frequently overnight when there is minimal Internet usage. During a recent "outage" I quickly ran to the router to find it was in the process of rebooting, however, I did not perform any direct actions (e.g., cycling the power or applying admin config changes) that would have caused it.
What is/could be the cause of this? Is Verizon support pushing silent router maintenance updates that require resets? Am I exceeding the maximum TCP connections the firmware will allow before faulting to reboot? I require high availability and uninterrupted connections and would prefer to know the routers limitations or when any remote automated maintenance requiring resets will be occurring if that is in fact the cause.

My router routinely runs for months between resets, which are caused by me needing to move a cable or a similar. Only once did I notice a reset due to a Verizon update, and that was when the firmware was updated a year or so ago.
You can check the router's up time on the "system monitoring" web page. This will let you know when the last reset occurred.
You should not see resets unless you cause them. The symptoms you describe are not typical. You might need a new router. If you think so, contact Verizon support.
Good Luck.

TS1717 Having trouble running iTunes version 11.0.2 on a Dell Laptop running Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1. Keep getting an error message "the software required for communicating with iPods and mobile phones was not installed correctly..." reinst

Having trouble when I launch iTunes (version 11.0.2) on my Dell Laptop running Windows 7 Professional (service pack 1). I get an error message indicating software required to communicate with iPod and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Do you want iTunes to try to repair this for you? I normally respond with OK and it immediately tells me "could not be repaired. Please reinstall iTunes..." I have done this a number of times to no avail.

I also notice Quicktime is not getting installed at all.
That one is normal nowadays (ever since the iTunes versions 10.5.x).
The software required for communicating with iPods and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Do you want iTunes to try to repair this for you?
Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

I downloaded Firefox 4.0 and it says to re-install the toolbar but I have not been successful in doing so. Can I go back to the older version? I had no trouble with that and I do not like this new version at all.

I downloaded Firefox 4.0 and it says to re-install the toolbar but I have not been successful in doing so. I went to the forums and tried all the suggested fixes but none worked. Can I go back to the older version? I had no trouble with that and I do not like this new version at all. I tried a system restore twice and it did not fix the problem.

I would imagine it's the MyWay Searchbar which is classified by most anti-malware scanners as adware, or even worse as spyware. I say that because I see "SmileyCentral" in your list of plugins and that's an add-on for that particular toolbar. You can disable that via Tools | Add-ons | Plugins.
There are a number of toolbars which won't work with Firefox 4 anymore due to the enhanced protection mechanisms in the browser.
Mozilla recommends that you only install add-ons from its own security site @ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/?browse=featured Generally speaking, those have all been tested and approved. The exceptions are those currently under review which are marked with a yellow banner to warn users that they haven't passed Mozilla's labs yet.

Verizon MI424WR Router Randomly Stops Broadcasting

I have a Verizon MI424WR Router that I use to wirelessly connect several PC systems that run various operating systems. Randomly throughout the day the computers (at the same time) indicate they have lost connectivity to the wireless network. The wireless router doesn't indicate anything is wrong and the modem still indicates it is connected. The only way to fix this is to switch off the router then back on again.
Is my router faulty?
Thanks!
Sarah
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This exact same issue has been happening to my connection. Tech help continually asks me to "reset the router" and that does indeed usually clear up the issue. I've had to do it twice in a row the last two times and i'm quite frustrated with it. I presume my router is bad and I'm soon to call to demand a replacement because having to reset the router every 4 or 5 days to get reliable connectivity is silly.
Here's the other weird thing, when I reset the router then enter the standard 192.168.1.1 to administrate the network, change the SSID and WEP password, etc. It will let me do it on my older Power PC Mac, and my housemates' PC's, but my newer Intel macBook doesn't get any connectivity to administrate at all.
It's very strange.

Trouble with VPN on HH5

You will see that a number of people in this forum have been reporting problems with VPN and the HH5; there is also a firmware problem with some HH3. It is possible that you too have have come up against these difficulties.
However, I see that you are a new customer of BT and there are a couple of problems that BT puts in the way of customers of which you may not be aware.
Go to http://preferences.webaddresshelp.bt.com/selfcare/preferences.cgi and turn off BT address help; it is not compatible with VPN.

I am having all kinds of trouble with itunes and updating my ipad. when I open up itunes, it seems to just sit there, never going to itunes store. when I connect my ipad, I check update and it starts, but then I get this message:backup can't be saved on

I am having all kinds of trouble with itunes and updating my ipad. I open itunes up but it doesn't do anything except open to a blank screen. I try to access the itunes store but it won't go there. When I connect my ipad, and try to update it, it starts and then I get a message that says backup cannot be saved on this computer. I have tried everything suggested to no avail. This is the 2nd or 3rd time I have had problems with itunes. Sometimes I even get a message that I am not connected to the internet.
I have uninstalled and re-installed. Any help?

Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected.

Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static IP, Subnet, Router and DNS manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected. Using Airport for router, latest firmware, no problems with Iphone 4 or Macbook Pro or any other internet devices. After total Restore (factory settings) tried again, showed connected to router, but does not display "check" next to router but little rotating icon even though the wifi range signal shows connected at full strength and it says it is connected. Just can't seem to get it to generate an IP. Any solutions other than turning it on and off again? Not a Merry Christmas morning.

Ok, so, a couple of things: Denisefromwaleska and I have the exact same size/type/color iPod. Now wishing I'd bought the black one maybe...
Second, Airport is an Express and I have a second one that I carry with me when I travel. Tried to connect my Airport Express to the internet and could not although the iPod did recognize the router and tried to connect to the internet for some time, unlike my previous problem. Updated firmware on my travel router, still could not connect to the internet. Going to try to set up a manual Static IP on the travel router here in a few and conect through it although I predict the problem will persist. Back on the Christmas Present Airport Express router, it is back in play and working fine for all devices save the iPod.
Thanks again for all your help, hopefully I can get a solution in place soon,

Did you look up the command line syntax and control options for imp?
You should make it a habit that whenever anyone - especially a stranger on the web - gives you a bit of code or references a command or init parm or any some such, the VERY FIRST thin you should ALWAYS do is look it up for yourself and see exactly where and how it is used and what it means. That is how you grow beyond having to be spoon fed every little thing and become more self-sufficient.
If you had, you would have seen that there is no TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION option for imp and seen that it is an option for impdp. And realized that exp and imp are NOT the same thing as expdp and impdp.

- Take a look in your alert log. One of the first things listed at startup is the initialization parms with non-default values. Read up on each one of them (listed in your alert log) in the Reference Manual.
- Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
- When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again.
