Unable to access some websites on E900

Hello,
I recently purchased E900.
But I am having issues with web access. Only few websites are accessible. Others don't open up.
- Using latest firmware
- Tried multiple browsers on multiple laptops
- Tried disabling QOS.
If I bypass the router and directly connect to modem, everything works fine.
I know there is some issue with router.
Please help.
~Yat

Was a Factory Reset performed before and after any firmware updates then set up from scratch?
Was the router working before any firmware updates? Is Auto Update enabled?

Router Placement
Forum User - "Well I feel really dumb. After moving the router away from other electronic devices my speeds are back to normal. Just a heads up for anyone experiencing slow speeds, you might want to move it away from other electronics and see if that helps."
3-6' feet minimum safe distance between devices.
Placement on main level floor and central in the building and WELL ventilated is preferred. Not in basements or closets as building materials, or near by electronics devices could interfere or hinder good signal propagation.

Unable to access some websites since installing new WRT300N Wireless Router

I have just replaced my old Belkin router with the new Linksys WRT300N, all of my connecting devices are Belkin & Linksys PCI or inbuilt Atheros and IntelPro 3945ABG Net on my laptops.
The issue that I have is that since the upgrade a number of sites (yours included) do not connect straight away, I have to refresh the page until it connects, some do not. This is not browser dependant as I have IE7 and Mozilla and the problems occurs in both.
The wirless is setup with DHCP enabled on the first page, any ideas?

Try to update the router's firmware. I heard, the latest firmware on their site should fix it.

Unable to load some websites after an update to IOS6

I am unable to load some websites in both Safari and Google Chrome. This did not bother me until I found at that I cannot access some websites I can access before and frequent. I am unsure if this was caused by the update to ios6, but this incident only happened after the update. I am unsure as well if this is related to the problem of me unable to connect to itunes and app store after the update. I've fixed those by changing my DNS to 8.8.8.8 and changing the time trick. I've also noticed that twitter and some apps crashed a lot. I have no problem connecting to the wifi though. Thank you in advance.

Some additional details I have also noticed. Some images will not show or appears as a blue and white question mark in some websites. Even here in apple website.

Can't access some websites using time capsule

Everything has been working just fine with my time capsule and my imac and just today I couldn't access some websites for some reason. I tried many other sites including this one and can get to them no problem. I have been through all of the airport settings and trouble shooting and can't find any problems, also the other 2 computers and my blackberry can't access some of the same sites either, I am stumped. Does anyone out there have any idea whats going on? Thanks for your help!

Welcome to the discussions!
Suggest that you contact your ISP. It sounds like their DNS server is overloaded at the moment, but also unlikely that they will ever admit it.
It wouldn't hurt to power cycle your complete network as well. Just power everything down, order is not important.
Start the modem first and let it run a few minutes by itself.
Then start the next device connected to the modem, probably your Time Capsule, and let it run a few minutes.
Then start your computers and devices one by one the same way.

Can't access some websites from XP machines on the network, but Win7 PC's ok

Hi,
We have a SBS installation with both XP and 7 PCs on it. Within the last couple of weeks the XP units have become unable to access certain websites, although others are ok. Windows 7 PC's are fine. Pings to the affected sites are also ok from either XP or
7. Despite a lot of effort trying to discover the reason we are not any closer to a solution. Could anyone suggest how we might track down the source of the issue ?
Many thanks

Hi,
Please try to reset the IE on the XP client. This issue may be caused by misconfiguration of the Internet Explorer.
Please check if there is any firewall rule block the TCP port 80 of the specified website.
To check if the TCP port 80 is open, please use the portqry tool.
To download the portqry, please click the link below,
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24009
If the TCP port 80 is block on the specified website, please check the network settings. Normally, this issue is caused by the misconfiguration of the firewall. Also, incorrectly configured proxy or router will cause this issue too.
If the TCP port 80 is open, we may need to perform a network capture on the XP client.
To download Network Monitor, please refer to the link below,

HT1338 unable to access certain websites

Unable to access certain websites using safari browser. any ideas!!!!

One of the first things you want to try is if you can get to these same sites on TMG itself. Create an Access rule that allows HTTP and HTTPS from Localhost (TMGs network adapter) to Anywhere (it's under Computer Sets). Apply it and then make sure that IE
is not set to use anything for a proxy. Clear all the boxes. Can you browse these sites? If not then your proxy clients will not be able to. Open a command prompt and use nslookup to see if TMG is resolving the sites. Remember that proxy clients rely on TMG
to do the name resolution for them. If it is not working then you will have a problem.

Some users on network unable to access a website

I am not sure on the root of the problem with this on, so I don't really know where to post, but thought I would start here.
We are a 12 person office on a small network. Someone here was trying to access a website (http://www.shutterstock.com), and the site would just spin and spin and eventually time out. We tried on some of the other machines, and they could not access it either, with the exception of one machine, which can access the site with no problem. All of us are running the same version of everything, same security settings, etc. Anyone have any thoughts on why 1 person on the network can access the site, and the rest of us cannot?

One possibility is that the one person who can access it is using custom DNS settings (or everyone else is and that person is not). Compare your settings in System Preferences > Network , click on the connection you're using in the left pane, and click the Advanced button. Then click on the "DNS" section and compare your settings in the DNS pane.

Safari suddenly no longer accessing some websites

I am on OS 10.4.9 using Safari 2.0.4. I'm aware both are outdated, but for various reasons I have chosen not to upgrade because I haven't really had any need to. But some weirdness has happened regarding my Safari and this is perhaps more a curiosity question than anything else (in part because everyone I talk to offline is suggesting I switch to Firefox or Opera anyway).
My Safari has developed a case of "Sudden Website Dropsy" or SWD. That is when a website that worked perfectly well a couple of days before no longer works properly, or at all, a few days later.
There are 3 examples I can cite:
1. CNN.com. The site still works, but the formatting is messed up, and videos often cause Safari to close.
2. TVshowsondvd.com . I was able to access this site up until Tuesday. Then it gave me a 404 error thereafter. I thought the site was dead or offline until I discovered I could still access it using an old version of Netscape. I contacted the webmaster and he said he'd changed nothing and has no idea why Safari overnight would forget the site existed.
3. Attempts to access any of the Wikia websites results in an instant quit by Safari. Again, this was an overnight development. The main Wikipedia site, however, still works fine. Again, I'm able to access the Wikia sites using my old, unsupported, outdated Netscape browser, which seems to suggest Wikia didn't upgrade beyond Safari 2's capabilities.
I know we're always supposed to upgrade our programs and systems and the reason for me not doing so is a mixture of paranoia (the last major upgrade I did cost me my ability to access to some major work-required software so I'm willing to sacrifice some bells and whistles to be able to keep my job running smoothly), but I don't feel this is one of those cases where I'm trying to make my old Safari do something it isn't capable of. These are websites that worked fine days or, at most, weeks ago, so there shouldn't be an access issue. The sudden 404 on that one site is perhaps the most puzzling.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Alex

Web sites change over time, using new coding, new technologies, etc. You're using an older version of Safari, and it has issues that can easily cause you to be unable to access certain web sites or cause Safari to crash. That is why you need to upgrade to 10.4.11 and the latest version of Safari. No tonly does it fix numerous bugs, but also closes a variety of security vulnerabilities.
You gain nothing by not doing it, and you risk everything. Your paranoia can be solved if you simply get a backup plan in order for your Mac and follow it. One of these days something bad will happen, at the worst possible time. I've yet to see or hear of anyone who lost their data by upgrading to 10.4.11, so now is the time to do it.

Unable to access particular website but others have no problem

I am unable to access schiffradio.com

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Unable to access certain websites

for the past week or so I've been unable to access a number of websites. they're timing out halfway through the connection. other sites hosted by the same companies work fine. looking through the archives i found a similar issue from a year ago in MD. I'm in MA. a group ticket was opened for that MD issue and the problem ultimately was resolved, although i'm not sure what the problem or the solution were.
