TV Guide fails - router problem?

When the guide failed on our main TV is the family room, I tried trouble-shooting it -- no luck. Then I "chatted" online with Verizon's "Raul" for two hours, trying everything he asked, including swapping the box with the one in the bedroom -- Raul thought it was the biox and gave me an 800 number to call to get a swap in boxes. However, before the weekend is over, all but one TV has the same problem. Right now, we get the guide on one TV and no guide on four TVs.
I've worked on this all day so far today. Verizon's In-Home Agent reports that none of the TVs have connectivity with the router. So I've concentrated on that, I've unplugged the router and the boxes, reset the router, accessed the router's control panel to see it seems to be working well. The only thing I can see wrong is this: The router's "WAN Ethernet" light stays dark, though its "WAN Coax" light stays lit. I wonder if this could be the problem; and, if so, how could I fix that?
One thing worries me about a router problem, though: Why would I still have the guide on one of the six TVs?
Anyone have a clue if I'm on the right track?
Thanks,
George

Yes, sounds like a router problem.
The STB has to download the program guide via the router. Each box should download 10 days worth of programing. So when the router goes out it could take as much as 10 days before the guide disappears. So the one box that still has the guide, was the last one to update and had more guide data stored than the others. It will go as well just given time.
If you have rebooted and reset the router, then the problem is either you have a bad router or possibly a bad splitter. Either way, you need to call tech support so they can get a tech out.

Route problem

Hi all, I am new to this forum and also new to Archlinux. I have been using SuSE for 4 years and learned how to use that gui. I never learned the grassroot of linux though. I completed the install on my TPad 600e without any problem at all. I am using a old orinoco gold that has been my standby forever. I have googled and searched this forum for several hours and tried all the suggestions I came across. My problem seems to be the same as many others have had. I had originally thought it was a route problem, but the output or netstat -nr is exactly the same as the output on my SuSE computer. I am not good with words, but let me try a description.
I cannot connect to my home lan at all. I have assigned a static ip and the output of iwconfig verifies that it is correct as I have assigned. When I try to ping my router the system returns the famous "Destination Host Unreachable" As mentioned I have tried to setup my default gateway and it is identical to the the output from my SuSE computer. When I try a dhcp setup and do a network restart the restart always fails. I have gone over and over my conf files looking for a fatfinger mistake but all looks exactly the way the examples I have searched up and I cannot see any typos. I would like to get this figured out for myself but I am out of clues on where to look and would appreciate new ideas.
It is as if there is a firewall in place, but this is a straight from the CD basic install to which I have installe the network section.
I really need to be pointed in a new direction.

Router problems how can I connect direct

I am continually having router problems from my service provider. How can i connect my printer directly to my computer? Thanks

Hi,
You need a printer which supports this first and then use the following instructions:

Mysterious routing problem / interface determination

Hi,
I have a very very strange routing problem with XI.
A message is sent from R/3 to XI and then send via adapter to an external party. The routing is configured well. But sometimes I have the following problem:
A message is received by XI (from R/3). The receiver is determinated. Although an interface determination and receiver agreement is configured, the trace shows "no interface determination fpr party xyz and service abc found". The very strange thing is that finally the receiver interface DELINS.DELFOR01 with namespace urn:sap-com:document:sap:idoc:messages is set!!
Finally, the error message is "no receiver agreement found for "... DELINS.DELFOR01, urn:sap-com:document:sap:idoc:messages", which is reasonable because this receiver interface has never ever been configured!
Any idea why the interface determination cannot be found and nevertheless a completely wrong receiver interface is set?
This error occurs just sometimes for certain partners, but not always with all messages for these partners!
Help appreciated!
Christopher

Hi,
all routing objects are 100% correct. Particularly the receiver service has definitely no DELINS.DELFOR01 interface, but nevertheless the Integration Runtime tries to send the message to this interface. Another strange thing is that in the trace there is the warning "no interface determination for party xxx and service xxx found".
By the way: The Receiver Determination was configured to terminate message processing when no receiver can be found.

Partition failed: A problem occurred while resizing Core Storage physical volume structures

Hi everybody,
I have just installed Yosemite on my iMac and everything works right.
iMac 27" late 2012
3,4 Ghz intel core i7
32 GB 1600 Mhz DDR3
3TB Fusion drive.
Now I need to create a bootable partition to install a copy of Mavericks because some FCPX plugins do not work on Yosemite.
To create a new partition I use Disc Utility, but each time I try to create it the mac show me this error:
partition failed A problem occurred while resizing Core Storage physical volume structures
Why?
What can I do?
P.S. FCPX does not work on a virtual machine, so I have to install it on a new partition
Thanks

Ditto here.
Same problem - I have a Apple_Corestorage partition that can't be unlocked.
You have to do this command to free up the Corestorage partition
diskutil coreStorage delete logicalGroupUUID
In your case, it'll be:
diskutil coreStorage delete E2CDC5FC-DA6E-4F43-B524-8925ABB23883

500 5.4.6 Data command failed: Routing loop detected

I have recently installed OCS 10.1.2 on single box and configured email server. initially i could send email from web client to other domains. Later I made an MX entry in the named server to send and receive emails to the Oracle email server. At that moment also I could send emails to other domains from web client.
I then configured my email on outlook with smtp and pop server pointing to my hosted server. When I send emails to other domain from outlook I received and error "[550] 5.7.1 Rcpt command failed: Mail denied due to site's policy". I searched the forum and found a solution to take care of it. The message id is 1146225, where in I did the following
Enable Routing Control : active
allow message relay : true
allow message relay domain : *
flag process: -l
Recipient Rewriting Rules: $*@your host target smtp,$1@your domain target smtp,
example:
$*@mail.sinux.com.pe,$[email protected],
you should change the next value in smtp outbound
rele smtp : ip of your source mail or relay :port smtp
flag process: -l
After restarting the SMTP inbound and outbound server I didnt get the above error but after few days got a email saying message could not be delivered to other domains (though the message was delivered to my domain) and the errror says "500 5.4.6 Data command failed: Routing loop detected"
Any ideas to resolve it.

E2000 + WAG160N routing problem?

Hi all,
I have a new E2000 router with address 192.168.0.1 connected to a WAG160N Modem router with address 192.168.1.1
and several computers at each router. All have DHCP activated and wifi active and working.
The cascading connection between both devices seems working well only in one direction.
All seems ok as I can access to internet from any computer. Also, computers connected to E2000 have accces
to computers on WAG160N modem BUT computers connected at modem do NOT have access to computer at router.
In fact from a computer connected to the E2000 I can configure the web interface of the E2000 and also the WAG160N
but from a computers connected at WAG160N I have access only to this interface but not to the E2000 interface.
I don't know if could be a routing problem. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Marti

The E2000 is configured to do NAT and thus protects the LAN from the internet side. If it was easily accessible your WAG LAN would be easily accessible from the internet.
You want to set up the E2000 as simple access point:
Unplug the E2000 from the WAG160N and open the web interface of the E2000 from a computer wired to the E2000.
On the main setup page
1. change the internet connection type to Automatic/DHCP (in case you have changed it).
2. change the LAN IP address from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.1.2.
3. Disable the DHCP server.
4. Save settings.
Unplug the computer.
Now wire one of the numbered LAN ports of the E2000 to the WAG160N. Don't use the internet port on the E2000.
That's the best setup you can do with your two routers... The E2000 is only used as simple access point and ethernet switch.

Another routing problem

I just replaced a FreeBSD box with Solaris 10 x86 U5.
I want my Windows boxes to reach internet thru Solaris. At the moment windows clients are able to ping both NICs on the Solaris. However, they can not ping default gateway of Solaris box. There is no problem on Solaris. I can reach internet without any problem.
Before posting, I used routeadm and (1) I enabled only ipv4-forwarding (did not work), (2) I enabled only ipv4-routing (did not work), (3) I enabled both ipv4-forwarding & ipv4-routing (did not help)
I also read about 5 pages of similar routing problems in forums. No clear solution is provided in any of them. I am posting this with the hope to find a solution.

If that's true, then routing/forwarding isn't useful. You'll have to set up the Solaris box as a NAT gateway instead. Ipfilter can do that. There are several cookbooks for it.

But for the return packet, that's not possible. There's no route published.

I agree that this is best in the Encore forum, as there are subscribers there, who do not frequent the PrPro forum.
As for the Check Project, that is not really a full "pre-flight," but just a quick look at the navigation in the Project. It does not carry much beyond the basic DVD/BD specs., and leads to a false sense of security. I have filed Feature Requests for a full pre-flight function, but so far - none yet.
Also, the forum has lost the capability to attach files, as some folk were uploading nefarious files. Adobe is said to be working at plugging the "hole," but until they succeed, we are left without that capability - bummer.
Good luck,

WRT300N V1.1 (Firmware Version: v1.51.2) Connection error. Router Problem! pls help

Hi,
I am having a problem with my linksys router. When i connect from my modem>linksys router>wired/wirelesss computer, i am unable to connect to the internet, but my connection shows 100%(excellent). So, i tried to connect my wired computer directly to my modem, the internet is working perfectly!
So i tried to reset the router, by holding the reset button for 30seconds. and then re-config my router setting. Finally, the internet is working. But when i wake up the next day, and tried to switch on the internet, the router can't work again.
SO i reset it again.It worked. But failed during the next few hours/days.
PLEASE Help me! I do not always wish to reset my router again and again. i will really appreciate your HELP????

Reduce the MTU value to 1300 and click on save settings on the setup page of the router and check.

Skype can't connect - most likely router problem, ...

Lately I can't connect to Skype at home. I've tried a lot of different solutions but none of them work.
The problem started a few months ago when I just couldn't sign into Skype (can't connect). At that time I had no change in any network settings on my computer nor my router. Interestingly enough, I could connect to Skype on Ubuntu (I have dualboot). Though even Ubuntu eventually failed to connect back then (just can't sign in) - still no changes in my network. I couldn't be bothered at the time with the problem so I just didn't use Skype.
However after some time (some weeks or a month or two), when I tried to connect to Skype again, it worked (on Win 7 as well as Ubuntu). Again, no changes to my network have been done in the mean time (Skype might of been updated, but I doubt it was on both platforms at the same time).
So Skype worked for a while until about a month ago, when the problem reoccurred. This time I said I'm going to get to the bottom of this so here is the situation:
I can connect to Skype at work no problem (on my desktop as well as my Android phone)
I can't connect to Skype at home (just won't sign in) on my desktop nor my phone
I have tried:
Reinstalling Skype with cleaning everything that Skype might have left behind
Installing an (a bit) older version 6.9 (because even the latest 6.11 didn't work). Though these two attempts I've come to see are in vain once I figured out that I can't connect to Skype on my phone as well.
Resetted my router a couple of times.
Reset my router settings to default.
Opened/forwarded Skype ports to my (local) IP. I even enabled DMZ to redirected all traffic to my desktop computer (although I'm not 100% sure that that worked as I imagine it should work).
Tried some proxy settings in Skype (Connection options) I found on your forum.
None of the above worked in any way...
My router is a TP-Link TL-WR1043ND with (I think the latest) firmware version 3.13.13 Build 130428 Rel.58290n (hardware is v1).
TLDR:
I can't sign in to Skype at home. It works when I'm at work. I can connect to Skype on my phone if I'm at work (over WiFi) or if I'm on 3G, but not if I'm on my home WiFi. That said, no software firewall can be the problem here, but my router. However I have no more ideas as to what else I can try. This forum is my last hope for finding a solution.
Please help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I do not know the makeup of Skype's internal security policies when it comes to this as they are not too open about this. Most companies are not. These are the only reasons I believe a block would occur based off any company's security policy.
1. A proactive measure - A blacklist of IPs is constantly obtained/updated to include anonymizer services that might harm the network.
2. An active/counteractive measure -
I. Someone uses an anonymizer to SPAM people on the Skype network:
a. Users complain using the abuse option. Users get the IP Auto-banned.
b. The company (Skype) receives the complaints or notices a trend and Manual/Auto bans the IP.
II. Too many people (connections) sign on with the same IP (due to an exit relay/proxy). Due to this being very suspicious, (maybe even DDos-like behavior) the IP is Auto-banned.
I tend to lean more towards the counteractive measure since I don't believe many proactive measures are needed to limit abuse. There is always at least one rotten apple that engages in illegal activity using anonymizers, proxies, etc. that ruin it for everybody. In reality I believe it is a combination/balance of the two. Not to be prejudice against anonymizers, just blacklists to protect the network from known attacks. For whatever reason once the threshold is met, the IP is banned. If I had to guess how long it would be in intervals of 30 days (30, 60, 90, 120, etc.). The whole Internet is not going to banned so the security policies in effect can't be too strict. It's goal is probably just to limit the majority of bad behavior that causes problems for their customers.
Skype is not the only service that reacts this way. Even ISPs will receive notices and in turn will send notices to their customer that since illegal activity (RIAA notices, etc.) is occurring due to a Tor exit relay or some other anonymizer, the ISP will terminate services with that customer if they don't cease (due to breach of contract).
I don't know whether you can limit an exit relay so it can't be used to access Skype. It may be a lost cause. If I made the choice to run a similar service it would be with a whitelist of people I knew who wouldn't use it to perform illegal activity, just remain anonymous when online.
You shouldn't have any issues running a non exit relay since in doing so your IP is not being broadcast all over the Internet like a calling card which an exit relay does. Changing your modem's MAC address is something you need to call your ISP for. However changing your router's MAC address generally does not require that. All that is required is a reboot of the modem, router, and possibly computer if you run into issues. You will probably continue to run into the same problem as long as you attempt to run an exit relay.
Be aware that for every IP that get's banned on your ISP is another IP a person could get issued for 24 hours to a week + after it gets released. Some people then visit this community and complain how they can't connect when it worked not too long ago and how Skype "sucks". So sometimes things like this create a ripple effect for other customers.

Weird Mac:Router problems

Hi all,
I'm having a really annoying problem between my Mac (G5, dual 2.5Ghz PPC running 10.4.11) and a wireless router.
I don't think the problem is with the router or with the router's web access because:
a) My iPhone connects to the router with no difficulties at all and loads web pages at an appropriate speed;
b) My Powerbook (G4 PPC, 10.4.11) connects to the router with no difficulties at all, and loads pages at an appropriate speed when connected both wirelessly and via ethernet;
c) My wife's Macbook (10.5.7) connects with no difficulties at all
d) All the devices that connect ok do so from various locations, often the same location as the G5 or from further away than the G5. I really don't think it's a location problem
e) This is a 'new' problem: the G5 has been connecting successfully to this network for a few years with no problems at all. Nothing has changed that I'm aware of. I was away for a few weeks (machine was switched off) and it worked ok at when I got back but now doesn't.
But the G5 drops the signal, fails to connect (error message = "there was a problem connecting to [name of network], do you want to try again?") and even when connected (ie when the Airport icon shows full signal strength) is either unable to load pages or extremely slow. For example, 15+ minutes to load the router's interface, or similar for a website.
The problem is the same for both Safari and Firefox.
Why? I've fiddled with the Airport arial on the back, I've logged out and in again, restarted the machine etc but am at a loss to think of what to try next.
Can anyone advise what I should try next, please?
Thanks!

Nothing - absolutely nothing at all. This morning, the first time I opened Safari, it immediately responded with one of the standard messages ('Safari can't open the page...'). I quit and reopened it. This time it loaded my home page after a few minutes, but then failed to open this page (Apple Discussions) saying the server unexpectedly dropped the connection. (I've logged on to this site using my Powerbook and Safari from the same desk as my G5).
The only Console entries from today (for the G5) are saying that Dashboard Client needs an update, the weather widget failed to fetch data (unsurprisingly) and the following message (from its time stamp it looks like it occured on start-up):
Sep 14 09:42:58 jasons-power-mac-g5 mDNSResponder: mDNSPlatformSendUDP sendto failed to send packet on InterfaceID 0181B200 en0/6 to FF02:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:00FB:5353 skt 9 error -1 errno 49 (Can't assign requested address) 2706483934
Does it mean anything?
Thanks for your help!
