Upgrade dsl internet
hi!!!
if i want to upgrade the verizon dsl internet to 3mb. Does the verizon charge anything? thank
It is not really an upgrade for dsl 13mg. They explained to me that it is the same service we have been getting but it was called 17-25kb. They have changed up the terminology on us. anyway you will get the same speed as you have had previously. To get more speed you need to upgrade to their fios. sea

I owned an Apple Tv and since I upgrade my internet to higher speed my Apple Tv does not work. Please someone help.
In most scenarios you shouldn't need to forward ports, however if you need to, you may be best contacting your ISP.
As with most router issues, I would recommend that you contact your ISP with details of your problem (assuming that it was your ISP that provided it to you).
There are simply too many manufacturers with different software features and settings and often different names for such features and settings, that the best advice will likely come from those that are knowledgeable about your particular router.
Make sure your router/computer allows access over the following ports

When streaming a movie with the new Apple TV, and using a DSL Internet connection, all audio sound works, e.g., the music track, but the audio track with the actor's voices, does not work. What can I do?
Hi Brian,
Thanks restoring and restarting didn't fix my problem - i have started it fresh and still it doesn't work. Basically I press ONCE on the remote, after the machine has not had any commands for 10 minutes, and the cursor skips from one end of the menu to the other - so I can't choose network or update software etc - I sometimes manage to stop it randomly in the middle of the menu if I press on a command in the middle of the cursor skipping all the menu steps...not sure what the problem is but I have basically not used my brand new apple tv since I bought it for that reason! I should call Apple support I suppose! grrrr hate wasting time with stuff like this!
Thanks for your help though!

Even when I am using Safari or Firefox the spinning wheel of lines especially for face book just keeps spinning and it takes forever to load my pages. It was faster than this before I upgraded my internet service. I Check the speeds and those are fine (using a internet speed test). I have emptied all of my caches, cleaned my Mac with (Clean My Mac), I've taken out all old files, pictures, cleared my widgits, and I don't know what else to do. Is there some configuration I need to address some where inmy preferences? Do Ihave to just live with it? I do want to upgrade to Snow Leopard but, I can't afford that at this moment. Any ideas please forward. Another issue I have is that my IMac will not accept a DVD+Rdl but will accept any and all other DVD' and CD's what could cause that?
Sincerely,
Rochichi98A warm welcome to Apple discussions!
A 2003 iMac cannot support Snow Leopard 10.6; you'd need an Intel processor and that cannot be retrofitted to your Mac. What does "About this Mac" in your Apple menu say for your processor speed? What does it say about how much RAM you have?
If the processor is 1ghz or faster, you can run OS 10.5; otherwise, you are maxed out at 10.4.11.
Also, are you running any commercial ("pay for") anti-virus or security software? They are notorious for slowing most Macs to a fraction of their speed potential.
A too-full hard drive can drag down performance, especially if you don't have a lot of physical RAM installed. If you single-click your hard drive icon and then do command i, you'll see the disk usage. Looks like this:
The value for "Used" should be no more than about 90 percent of "Capacity." In the example image, that drive has about 34 percent of its space used and 66 percent free--more than enough. Please post what you see for your Capacity and Used numbers
There are a few more things we might check but this is a good start.
Awaiting your information,

Trying to get DSL internet. Verizon central office just down the Road less then 1 mile away.
I am trying to get service to my home and its a bit frustrating when the county physical address does not match with any other maps to try and get service. (its not just you). My property has 2 addresses associated with it
{edited for privacy}
and {edited for privacy}
There is a central office just down the Road with your logo on it (less then 1 mile when traveling on a Road with power/phone lines)
My neighbors address is {edited for privacy} if that is easier to find
Our property is on the intersection for {edited for privacy}
The Central office is RONETXXA
when i try to play around with the address trying to find one that is (somewhat close to my address to use as a reference point)
What seems to be the case is so far i have found that i can get Phone service and direct TV through Verizon.
Is this due to the distance the system thinks i am from the Central office or is it just that you do not provide Internet other then wireless even though there is a Central office and phone lines already set up in the area and to my 2 houses.
Also last year we got all the way too getting a phone rep who told us that we would be getting a call from engineering to look into our problem...... that never happened.
I would be most appreciative if you could please look into this.
If there is any more information you need to better understand my situation please do let me know and i will do what i can to provide it.after the holidays i will again call customer support and hopefully i find them more equipped then the check for service plug in i also have access too and no way of dealing with difficult questions.
Is there perhaps a more equipped customer support number that i can call to save me time/effort because my issue is not just a simple plug and check issue.
As it seems again its
A. the system is not showing my adress distance correctly
B. the central office is not providing dsl internet even though the lines are already set up. (that kinda seems odd to me) -
i can not update OS X mavericks, my macbook OS X lion 10.7.5, when i install that show me This copy of the Install OS X Mavericks application, my brother can upgrade with internet that just me can do that
Is your MacBook compatible with Mavericks? Open > About this Mac > More Info, and you will see the MacBook model you have got. Then, check in this site if it's supported > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs
If your Mac is not compatible, OS X 10.7.5 is the most recent version for your Mac. Also, copy the whole message you see when you open the Mavericks installer -
I have a dsl internet conection with a download speed of .66 mbps. I would like to watch netflix with a wireless conection to apple tv. What is the required internet speed?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Netflix recommend a minimum connection speed of 0.5 Mbps, however at that speed many of the other features of the Apple TV will be painfully slow. -
I upgraded my internet explorer from 8 to 11
After I upgraded my internet explorer, now it says that I'm not using internet explorer 8 or flash player is not installed in my computer
Okay I assume this is WINDOWS 8 and IE 11, since it's HIGHLY unlike;ly that ANY system still running IE8 (like Win 2000 or XP) would accept the upgrade to IE11.
IE11 is causing a LOT of problems with a LOT of websites because Microsoft made changes to the code right before the final release and they told NO ONE about it. As a result, Facebook and Yahoo to name juts two, aren't recognizing the browser or Plugins like Flash Player.
Until Microsoft gets a fix released, the recommended workaround is to enable Compatibility View for the affected websites: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11 -
Would upgrading my internet speed improve Netflix performance?
I know there is a lot of controversy surrounding netflix and ISPs which I'm not really interested in. I just know my netflix streaming is terrible right now and I would be willing to upgrade my internet speed if it meant that would improve. Any idea if it would? Thank you/
NO! Don't do it.
You'll just be throwing more money at Verizon with no change in performance. Realistically you could probably downgrade your speed, save yourself money, and see no change in your Netflix performance. -
Hello, it was my first time to purchase a Sisco product and seems like somehow it might be the last..
I've just purchased a WAG120N router + modem and i get random DSL/Internet Disconnects and there seem to be no solution online where people complained repeatedly so hopefully someone would disappoint me and help me out before i start struggling for a refund.
The exact issue is, randomly the DSL indicator goes off then blinks back to steady also where the Internet indicator results in turning off too then coming back on after few seconds of the DSL being steady..
Posted by WebUser Mohamed A. Ghazy from Cisco Support Community AppStep one: Visit http://www.giganews.com/line_info.html and post up the Traceroute the page shows, if you wish. Be aware that your non-bogan public IP Address will show up. It might shown up as the final hop (bottom-most line of the trace) might contain a hop with your IP address in it. Either remove that line or show only the first two octets. What I'm looking for is a line that mentions "ERX" in it's name towards the end. If for some reason the trace does not complete (two lines full of Stars), keep the trace route intact.
For example this what I saw when I was using Verizon

Step two: Can you provide the Transceiver Statistics from your modem?
#3 If you don't know how to get that info:
a) What is the brand and model of your modem?
b) If you have a RJ-45 WAN port router connected to it: What is the brand and model of the RJ-45 WAN port router?
#4 If you have a RJ-45 WAN port router connected to the modem, even if you know how to get the Transceiver Statistics from the modem: What is the brand and model of the RJ-45 WAN port router?

DSL Internet and Firewire Windows network at the same time?
I've got DSL internet via ethernet port on my Macbook and Firewire network with Windows, but it seems they can't work at the same time. If I turn DSL on first than firewire won't work and vice-versa. My guess that's because of the way MacOS X choose which port to use as Windows Sharing. Is there any way to choose manually which port to use?
I'll try to explain this problem as full as possible.
I've got DSL modem which is connected to Macbook via Ethernet port and Macbook is the only thing connected to modem. Then I've got Windows XP machine which work as storage. It doesn't have internet connection and I don't want to share my internet connection from Macbook with it. The only thing I want is File Sharing. Everything work fine if only Ethernet or Firewire plugged. The problem is they can't work together. If drag Built-in Ethernet to top then Mac tries to connect to Internet via Ethernet and it tries to do File sharing via Ethernet too. As the result Internet is working and file sharing is not (it sets ip address of file sharing to Ethernet's ip address). If I drag Built-in FireWire to top then Mac tries to connect to Internet via Firewire and it tries to do File sharing via FireWire too. As the result Internet is not working and file sharing is working (it sets ip address of Internet to FireWire's ip address). I think when Mac starts searching for networks according to Network Port configuration list it found first network and stops searching and network that I set on top is working and another is not. Maybe Mac can be only at one network at the same time? That's why I asked is there any way to set ports for Internet and File Sharing manually? -
I just upgraded my Internet service to 12 MPS. It doesn't appear to work any faster than the 3MPS I had before. The AT&T guy said it may be the computer rather than the connection. I have an iMac intel core 2 duo, running OS 10.5.8. It has 1 GB of memory. I have plenty of memory left. Is there something I can check on the computer to see if it's capable of running faster with this new Internet upgrade?
You certainly are going to see improvements if you download big files, i.e. Apple updates, or watching trailers also at higher resolution.
You won't see much difference if you use peer to peer download. -
Sharing DSL internet connection with WRT54G
I've recently changed from a cable to a DSL internet connection.
On cable I used a WRT54G router to share the connection to a laptop (via Wireless) and a desktop (via ethernet cable).
After instaling the DSL (modem and software) on the laptop, the conection doesn't work.
The set up for the linksys router was updated (changed to PPPoE, and informing the user id and password the provider gave me), via browser, and it is correct.
Now, I can only access the internet when the ethernet cable is connected straight from the DSL modem to the laptop.
If change the cable from the laptop to the linksys router and try accessing the router, it doesn't work, although the connection is indicated as active, and the laptop gets the ip I defined in the DHCP linksys router (192.168.1.100).
Under this scheme, it seems the laptop can't find, neither the linksys router, nor the DSL modem (modem model is Thomson Speed Touch 510 v6), and hence, the internet.
Due to that when I try accessing the Linksys configuration page (192.168.1.1) I receive a message that this page cannot be accessed offline and it's necessary to connect. I can't connect, cause the modem is not found in the net.
That should not happen, the page should be available offline, cause it's a connection that does not rely on an internet connection (the router is close to the laptop).
The same problem occurs with any web page I try to open/load: a message stated it can be accessed offline, and it's necessary to connect, but, again, I can't connect.
I tried using a cable between the laptop and the linksys router, but did not go any better.
Thx everyoneIt is my understanding that the Thompson Speed Touch 510 V6 is an ADSL Gateway modem router. As such, at a minumum, it is probably doing your PPPoE login for you. If this is correct, then your Linksys should not be set to do a PPPoE login. When you used software to install your modem, didn't you have to enter your user id and password and have it loaded into the Thompson? If the Thompson has this info, the Linksys pobably does not need it.
You really need to talk to your DSL provider, or check their web site, to see what they suggest about setting up your system. At a minumum, you will need to know exactly what the Thompson is doing:
Is it doing your PPPoE login?
Is is acting as a DHCP server?
In the mean time, you might just want to try the following:
Try setting the router to "Automatic Configuration - DHCP"
If you are having trouble getting to the router setup page, do the following:
1) power down your modem, router, and computers, and unplug them from the wall.
2) disconnect all wires from the router.
3) connect one computer by wire to port 1 (not the internet port) on the router.
3) power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
4) power up the computer
5) open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1 This should open the router login window. Enter your user name (if any) and password. This should take you to your router's setup page.
If you get this far, set the router to "Automatic Configuration - DHCP", save the setting, then power down the router and your computer. Then reconnect modem-router-computer and try your setup again.
If any step fails, note the exact error message and the status of the lights on the router. Report back with your results. Also, it might help if we knew your DSL service provider.
Hope this helps.

I recently upgraded my internet service with Comcast for faster internet. When I use an ethernet connection I get 50 MB download speed....when I use the wireless connection I get 10-20 MB speed. I have an airport extreme...3-4 years old. Why is the speed so different and are there settings I can change to increase the wireless speed?
If your supposed to be getting 20 Mb/s down via your ISP and both Mac's are not getting that on the SpeedTest, then obviously your router appears to be the cause.
Connect one Mac directly to the ISP's modem, power off/wait 30 seconds/then power on, then power on the Mac. The ISP will connect directly to the Mac, then run a SpeedTest.
Then repeat the same for the other Mac. If both Mac's have a problem then it's possibly the ISP, the modem, your lines to them or on your property, or both Mac's are messed up.
You'll have to keep searching for the cause. Call your ISP and ask then to run a test to see if your getting your 20 Mb/s to your modem, that should clear part of the problem.

My WRT110 Wireless router won't give me a connection to my DSL internet.
I am setting up a home network that includes 2 laptops, 1 DSl modem, 1 wireless (WRT110) router, and 1 printer. The DSl internet is brand new as well and i just got it working as far as for connecting to the internet using a ethernet cord. My next step was to add the wireless router into the mix and allow the laptops to go wireless. I complete the WRT110 wireless router setup wizard and it finishes with it saying i have complete. However, it won't give me the internet signal to where i can connect to the internet (i am still using all 1394 cords and haven't attempted to go wireless yet, figured i should get the connection working before i try to connect wireless). All the lights on the DSL modem are green and its acting like i have a good connection. All the lights on my new router are green (well blue since it is the new kind of router) but still no connection. On a side note, since the wizard was complete i just took a shot in the dark and tried to connect going wireless and both laptops recognize the wireless router and can get a perfect signlal from it. However, when i try and connect to the network it sets there for a long time trying to "aquire network address" then wont connect. I would appreciate any guidance anyone can give me. Thank you
Thank you Very much!
I just moved into a house where they have a router at one end of the house and I live down stairs at the other end of the house. I have my own ruoter so I hooked it up and I had a wireless connection but no internet. I have spent the last 3 days reading blogs on connecting 2 routers. Today I hit upon yours and you gave the IP address to get into the links page settings for the router. Every page tells you how to do what you say but non of them gave the IP address. Again THANK YOU FOR BEING SO KIND TO US NEWBE'S. Yes I was shouting that. I wish everyone would give answers not as though they are talking to someone knows what they are doing but spell it out as if we know nothing cause you never know who may be reading it in the feture.
Any how I now have internet on both routers Now my question is cause it's still a low connection. Is there a way to have one wireless router pick up a signle without a cat 6 cable?
I have my landlords Comcast Internet going to his WRT54G router.
His Router is routed with a 50' cat 9 cable to my WRT54G by the main door upstairs they are about 20' apart would like to move my ruoter down stairs, but the landlord does not want me to string wire downstiars from his router.
Where my question comes in can I connect one WRT54G wirelessly to the other?
I know simple answer is no!
But do you have a Hard answer of YES? I hope so!
