Disable WRT54G's DHCP server , change it's IP address to 192.168.1.3, and connect a lan port from existing network to a lan port on WRT54G, and don't use WRT54G's internet port for any purpose. It would work

  • New VMS/IPC boxes - speed and pricing

    For the most part, I've been a very happy FiOS customer. The internet side has gone out exactly once in the year I've had the service, and it was restored within an hour. TV has dropped out twice, both times very late at night (I assume for head-end maintenance). Reliability is better than every other ISP I've ever had, combined.
    That said..
    I wanted to snag another STB for the house - found out the local stores had all been closed (I can understand why from the financial aspect, but it was still a shock pulling up to my old store to pick up another STB.. and finding a "for lease" sign, when I'd been by there 2 months prior), so I looked at options online. The new VMS + IPC boxes looked promising, especially since they added the ability for the entire house to pause, rewind, schedule recordings, etc, from any TV - instead of only the DVR being able to do that (though the old boxes could stream recordings from the DVR).
    My chief complaint so far - while the VMS box itself is responsive, the IPC boxes are painfully slow to respond to anything. Picture quality is fantastic, but using them feels, to put it in nerd terms, like using a Pentium 90 with Windows XP and 128MB RAM. They take 5+ to respond to anything more than a channel change (and even that takes up to 3 seconds), and frequently "lose" remote key presses if you try to, say, hit guide, hit page down, then try to arrow down to the channel that you know is on the next page. It literally feels like a throwback to the earliest digital set top boxes from Comcast/Time Warner - the first ones with built-in TV listings in the mid 1990s. The speed is right on par with them; the only thing faster right now is they don't shut down for 30 minutes a day to update the TV listings.
    I've gone through the built-in diagnostics on the boxes to verify signal levels - they're decent (not perfect, but this is a 20 year old house with mostly original coax), but we have no pixelation or picture drop-out, so I would think they could carry the basic stuff between the IPC boxes and VMS pretty easily. The router certainly has no problem handling the 75/35 on the same coax (speedtest shows 85-90 down, 35-40 up, with a ~5ms ping, no matter which cable outlet it's plugged into)..
    My other complaint - why did Verizon move to "rooms" for pricing? I thought I was getting a DVR plus 3 STBs (since I ordered 3 STBs and asked for a DVR), instead of a VMS + 2 STBs - and I'm paying much more than I did for the old DVR + 2 STBs.
    With the griping out of the way - is there a reasonable chance that firmware updates will help with the speed of the IPC boxes? Or is there a chance it's a cabling issue? (I have no problem pulling new coax or cat5e, and I can provide signal levels if that'll help) If not, is there any chance of getting the old QIP7232 DVR + QIP7100 box back (and adding another 7100), and switching back to what I was paying before? I know they're a bit antiquated (especially the 7100s), but they were much more responsive, and didn't make me want to throw the STBs through the window. It just seems really rediculous that I'm paying such a large premium (plus the "upgrade fee") for equipment that, in terms of the user experience, is much worse.
    Again.. been a happy customer for a long time, but the new terminals are super painful to use.
    Thanks.

    If this is the case.  I think I will wait till the bugs are worked out
    Question what were you paying before and after for the boxes.   So what was the old DVR + 2 STB's and the new DVR plus 2 stb's
    Trying to get an idea of what you meant by way more.  Most people said same pricing and a small $20 or so upgrade fee

  • How do i get win 8.1. *pro* for mac parallels, deauthorizing win 8.1 pro and license rules for windows vms

    ok, i've seen this question asked a number of times.  i know the general procedure:
    - first download some installer things to a window box so i can make a bootable DVD / flash drive
    - go the mac and use the DVD / usb stick to install the virtual machine
    great.. BUT :
    1) unfortunately, i'm still really confused at the  most basic part which is where (link) do i actually get the initial download thing to create the 8.1 *PRO* from microsoft and where (link) / how do i pay for the subscription key to install the thing???? 
    i keep seeing a link for windows 8 or windows 8.1 where windows PRO is NEVER mentioned.  i ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE a) PRO 64 bit and NOT vanilla windows and b) it MUST BE A FULL INSTALL (i'm not upgrading from windows 7, 8 or 8.1 NON pro..  i'm going
    to be installing this thing on a brand new system.
    i'm an IT guy for two decades and i can tell you trying to find, download, install a clean version of windows 8.1 PRO is a royal pita and nothing about windows 8.1 PRO is intuitive on the MS site.  it's almost as if they do NOT want you to install the
    thing.   i'm not trying to bust jewels here, i'm just being honest and providing feedback that you folks need to make this much more clear and intuitive.  people really shouldN'T have to post on forums to find out how to purchase, download and enter
    in a subscription key for a base version of an OS.  it's crazy.
    2) once i can figure out how to download, install and register the darn thing ;)... i'm curious how the licensing works.
    2a) first if my windows 8.1 pro experiment on mac parallels sucks, i want to be able to remove the authorization so i can reinstall 8.1 pro on another system.   can i / how do i do this in my scenario?
    2b) i actually already bought windows pro 8.1 about a year ago (to upgrade a laptop that came with 8 that i needed to upgrade to vanilla 8.1 then to finally to pro) so that i could windows phone 8.1 development with simulator on the laptop.  unfortunately
    the laptop maxed out at 4G and the performance of the emulator was ridiculously slow that it's unusable.  i'd love to somehow be able to put the laptop back to windows *vanilla* 8.1 and reclaim my 8.1 pro that i *already* purchased by removing the authorization
    from that laptop allowing me to reinstall the full 8.1 pro with the same key on the mac with parallels.  then i can sell the laptop that has sat there collecting dust for a year and regain my windows 8.1 pro investment vs having to buy another copy for
    the mac. 
    i have no idea how to do this though i think it should be possible.  can anybody tell me where / how i do this?
    note the win pro 8.1 install never went well so i actually had some guy from MS login to my laptop remotely and do the install.. in doing so i believe he wiped away the original windows vanilla 8.1 recovery partition asus put on the drive meaning i'm not
    sure i can get the laptop back to 8.1  or 8 vanilla so i can resell it functionally to another person while removing my 8.1 *pro* license from it.   any suggestions here highly welcome.
    2c)  once i get the windows 8.1 pro installed in a vm under parallels, i'll have one licensed copy running.  my guess is that is what i'm limited to.  but when you start working with VMs the whole purpose is to be able to create multiple test
    enviornments and dispose of them when you don't need them etc.   since the window will be tied to the single mac hw id, will i be able to install multiple *win* vms (duping an exising win vm for instance) from the one license  or must i purchase
    multiple win licenses for each win vm on the SAME system?   if you need a new license for each vm, wouldn't i have to do a FULL WINDOWS INSTALL every time i wanted to create another windows VM.. THAT IS CRAZILY INEFFICIENT...
    there has to be some kind of option to dup a windows licensed vm on the SAME system yes?  what are the rules / procedures for making this work.
    i'm using parallels on mac as an example but the same question would apply to using hyperV (which i know nothing about at this point) as the virtual host platform as well.
    i'm open to well thought out links that actually answer these questions succinctly in addition to comments here
    thanks in advance

    Hello bigbobber,
    If  you have issue in using Windows 8.1 Pro in the software  parallels in MAC?

  • VMS File Extensions

    Hi,
    We have MacOS and Win 95 boxes talking to an Alpha running OpenVMS.
    Our Forte applications run some reports on the Alpha box, due to
    their size etc. However, we want the users (on the PCs) to be able to
    manipulate the resulting files as necessary. At the moment we get a
    list of the files in a "user" directory and display that on the
    screen. Unfortunately, we can't seem to get the version numbers of the
    files (it isn't in the suffix, where I would expect it to be). This is important, as the
    User needs to know which file is the latest version (or the previous one etc).
    Does anybody have any way of getting the version number for a VMS
    file in Forte?
    Thanks in advance

  • VMS Client Channel Buffering Problem

    I just received my new Verizon VMS system which includes 2 client units.  I hooked everything up and all was working as it should except that when watching live TV on the two client units, it will not buffer two different TV channels and allow me to switch back and forth between these two channels and rewind, fast forward or pause.  It will only buffer one channel and when I switch to another, the original channels buffer is gone.  I could do this on all three of my standard HD DVR boxes before swithcing to the VMS and this was a huge feature for me as I like to watch multiple shows or sporting events simultaneaously.  I called support and after about 90 minutes they could find no problem or find any solution other then to send me a new VMS.  The odd thing is when they looked at all of the tuners being used, tuners 3 annd 4 were never getting used.  The odder thing is that it seemed to work properly on one of the client boxes until they did a cold init and then that one also stopped allowing 2 channels to be buffered.
    Should I be able to buffer two seperate channels on the client boxes as well as the main VMS box or did they for some awful reasone take this feature away from the clients??
    Thanks,
    Eric

  • VMS 1100 and Slingbox

    rataylor wrote:
    Thanks! Is STB the same as the new VMS server box? (Will it even work with the client box?)Lots of terms there.  A DVR including the new VMS boxes is a STB.  However the older Verizon STB's and DVR's will not work the VMS box.  Only the new IP boxes work with the VMS box.   And the IP boxes will not work without at least one VMS box.  The previous STB did not have to have a DVR box in order to work.

    Thanks for the suggestions. I think the problem is my Slingbox is the original "SOLO" model and the new FIOS equipment uses 1080i for signal. It would probably work if I got the new Slingbox 500 which also uses 1080i. One last question....if the Client & TV are hooked up via HDMI and the SOLO is connected to the Client with the component cables, can it send a signal to both units or does it have to be connected one or the other? I know it worked set up like that with the old DVR I had but I think that had more than one tuner whereas I've read the client just has one.

  • VMS new install - IP box issues

    Installed my VMS and 2 IP boxes without issue.  However, I am now seeing a problem between the IP boxes.  I only have the 3 total units.  While watching a channel on IP1, if I put the same channel on IP2, IP1 freezes, as if it were paused.
    To correct the problem, I need to turn off IP2 then change the channel on IP1 to something different and then return to the original channel.  Anyone else seeing this?  We have to be able to watch the same channel on multiple TVs...

    I did a bit of Googling after I've been working this issue for several hours straight, and it seems I have the dreaded "NF3 vs 6800" issue.
    I have flashed the BIOS to clock the BFG 6800GT OC back down to 350/1000 and even went so far to push it back to 345/1000.  I have turned fastwrites off, the hidden ATI/NV setting in the BIOS is turned off, I tried pushing the voltage to the card up to 1.6 and used NiBitor and RivaTuner to try and force the 2d/3d times to be the same. 
    Nothing worked.  I'm still getting annoying "RGB pixilation" as well as periodic UI freezes for half a second.  Called BFG and they said they knew of no issues, and after doing a bit of searching on this board, it seems to be an NForce vs. 6800 problem.
    Has anyone got any other ideas before I go over to the darkside and purchase a VIA board?

  • VMS & IPC Low MOCA speeds Check your COAX!

    To much load on the COAX? Two 4-way by directional splitters and the router sits on the first splitter.
    Make sure in is in and out is out.
    Quantum TV ROCKs! Now that I removed the sand.
    Enable Client Ethernet option with hopes they built it with Gigabit!
    System Log
    LAN Coax
    LAN Coax Link Low Rate <TX 89Mbps/RX 113Mbps>
    Actiontec issues, did not see this prior to Quantum TV?
    Why does the router report this if the Ethernet is supporting the computers at Gigabit, and MOCA LAN is supporting the IPC Clients?
    The clients should not care at this MOCA speed?
    Does it matter that the LAN is running slow, since the MOCA WAN and LAN are at a different frequencies, and MOCA WAN not used with Ethernet WAN configurations?
    Or would this too cause a bottle neck on the bridge, because with Gigabit LAN it should not?
    Come on Verizon get a router with MOCA 2.0 and decent Wifi!
    All VMS and IPC devices report a good SNR. Is this only an issue with the load on MOCA it you are running MOCA WAN?
    ONT, 1- MI424WR-GEN3I, 1- VMS-1100, 3- IPC-1100, and 1- Media Center Network Tuner. Now say I add another VMS-1100 or more clients.
    The CSR was clueless, and kept wanting access to my private network and PC. I don't think so. Do what you wish on your network, mine is mine!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Make sure in is in and out is out.
    Quantum TV ROCKs! Now that I removed the sand.
    Check your in and out splitter connections and make sure they are tight and in is in and out is out.
    I will be the first to admit when I double check my work and find I was wrong. Hey what do you want when your reconnecting  coax cables after running Media Center extenders on Ethernet for 16 months in anticipation.

  • Any way to increase the default Heap size for all Java VMs in Solaris 8

    Hello,
    I have a java product that deals with large databases under Solaris 8. It is a jar file, started by a cron job every night. Some nights it will fail because it runs out of Heap memory depending on the amount of records it has to deal with. I know that I could increase the java VM heap size with "java -jar -mx YY JARFILE" command but I have other java products that are showing the same behavior, and I would like to correct them all in one shot if possible.
    What I would like to do is find a system or configuration parameter that forces all Java VMs to use a larger MAX Heap size than the default 16M specified in the Man page for Java. Is there a way to accomplish that?
    TIA
    Maizo

    You could always download the source and modify it.

  • How many VMs can be build using below configuration

    Hi,
    I have ESXi 4.0 cluster with 6 ESX box.Each box has 8 CPU with 2.66GHZ speed (Total ESX cluster CPU resources is 127 GHZ (48 Processor) and memory is 328 GB. I have deoploy to VMs with configuration 4GB RAM,2VCPU.
    Can anyone please let me know how many VMs can be deployed with configuration 4GB RAM,2Vcpu on this Cluster?
    Thank You

    It will be hard to say with out knowing the load in the VMs -  with aligh load you should easily be able to get 80-100 VMs on the cluster.
    Is there a reason why you are using 2 vCPUs - best practice is always to start with a single vCPU and add more if needed - doing this will increase the number of VMs possible -

  • Windows Update on VMs seems to only work one at a time

    I have a handful of Win 2012 R2 VMs (running on ESXi) I've inherited. I've tried 3 or 4 times to update them now since taking them
    over, and noticed the strangest thing - only one of them will download updates at a time. If I start the update on all of them, the others will just hang at 0%. A little while after one finishes, another one will finally start to download. I'm completely stumped
    as to why/how this could be happening. Is this even possible, or just an incredibly strange coincidence? Is there anything I can check to prove one way or the other? I'm wondering if it's something odd like they were all cloned from one base VM in some odd
    way such that WU is seeing them as the same server when they try to connect or something... Other computers can connect to WU while this is happening; it's just this little cluster of VMs that were all built together.

    Hi Allison,
    Just addition. Did you check if those problematic VMs can access internet at the same time? For example, can
    those VMs browser any webpage successfully at the same time, not just download updates? Meanwhile, please check if there has policies on router ports to limit the number of MAC addresses per port.
    Hope this helps.

  • Error while executing action SMCO in VMS Build-to-Order process.

    Hello All,
    When I execute the Action 'SMCO' for service order confirmation, the system says that the action cannot be executed due to the error: "Actual date(s) is in the future (check parameters)". Also the Actual start & End Dates are blank in the service order. This is creating a problem such that the Action 'SMIO'-Create Billing request for service order cannot be executed for completion of the Build-to-Order process.
    Is there any customizing setting in ECC - Customer Service (CS) component which is causing this error?
    Thanks in Advance,
    Pramod

    HI Kaustubh,
    Thank you for the response.
    The Action matrices I use are ECMM (Primary) and ECSD (Secondary) and the set up is perfect. I was able to do it earlier and we also had a detailed system walkthrough but it seems to be different now may be due to some customizing changes.
    It seems to be an issue with the setup in customer service (CS) which is controlling our  VMS. I am executing the actions in the sequence SMNO (service notification) then SMOR (service order) and then SMCO (service order confirmation). Now the issue seems to be with service order confirmation where my Actual Start and End dates are blank which should not be the case to confirm the service order (SMCO).
    Pleaes let me know if you need more information on this.
    Regards,
    Pramod

  • Migrate Roles failes when migrating VMs with legacy network adapters (2008R2 - 2012)

    I'm working on a upgrade of Hyper-V 2008R2 cluster to Hyper-V 2012 cluster. I am using the "migrate roles" feature of failover clustering to migrate the CSV's and VM's. The wizard ask to which switch the VMs need to be connected on the target cluster.
    All VMs with network adapters can be started in the new cluster without any issues. If you look at the XML file of the migrated VMs with normal network adapters, a new XML has been generated in the proper 2012 format. However, all VM's with a legacy
    network adapter fail to start. Also there is no migrated XML file in the VM directory. It is impossible to check or adjust the settings of the migrated VMs with legacy network adapters using the failover clustering console.
    I have reproduced the issue in my lab several times, and it seems like a bug.
    There are several workarounds, but I am looking for a real solution.

    Hi,
    We recommend that you use the legacy network adapter only to perform a network-based installation or when the guest operating system does not support the network adapter.
    If the virtual machine continues to use the legacy network adapter it will not be able to leverage many of the features available in the Hyper-V virtual switch. You may want
    to replace the legacy network adapter after the operating system is installed.

  • Create a UK based image for VMs

    Hello, 
    We are trying to install an application which requires a UK (en-GB) locale, however have not had much success in trying the default images, then converting them to UK regional settings (via group policy, copy settings..." function in Region and
    Languages or via the registry).
    Given we can't get the out-of-the-box images working, we have turned to creating the basic VM locally stating with UK settings, then uploading the image.
    We assume that once sysprep has been run and the image provisioned within Azure, the locale will be configured to US.  Based on this, we are trying to use unattended.xml to set everything to UK settings, so the machine never is configured to US at any
    stage.  On doing so, the provisioning eventually fails.  Reading around the subject, articles state to delete unattended.xml and other articles state that the unatteneded.xml can conflict.
    The question is: Can certain settings be placed in the unattended.xml and if so, can the regional settings be placed here (does anyone have a successful example file used in Azure)?
    If the unattended.xml can not be used to achieve this, can anyone suggest (ideally with detailed steps) how we can achieve a VM with UK based regional settings (not just a US one which we then try to update via registry or the "copy settings..."
    function in Region and Languages)?
    With thanks,
    Richard

    Hi Richard,
    Azure uses an unnatend.xml file as part of the deployment process for new VMs. Currently it is not possible to upload your own unnatend.xml file
    to choose roles, features of settings to be added during deployment.
    I recommend you to submit your requirement in the link below:

  • CVI in CRM 7.0 and ECC 6.0 IS-A VMS

    Hi experts
    I'm seeking for techinical advise on solution for CVI (Customer-Vendor Integration) in the given landscape.
    Refering to an excellent article from Mitchell Faiman (SAP) in CRM Expert and SAP help for CRM 6.0, we've done all the needfuls to set up but still has some issues.
    We're implementing a landscape with CRM 7.0, ECC 6.0 EhP4, NW EhP1, and IS-A-VMS (Vehicle Managmeent System). One of the key requirements is keeping BP master data clean and consistent across the landscape, including having the same ID, and having a mechanism to keep any changes reflected across the chain regardless of the change being made in CRM or ECC. In VMS, there is a requirement to have end-customer created as BP (role VLC001), as well as being a customer (KNA1) for SD Sales transaction and vendor (LFA1) for kickback payment in ECC. This is where we thought of CVI as the ideal solution. The ideal flow for us would be to have BP created in CRM (role CRM000), then via MW object BUPA_MAIN creates BP in ECC (hoping to find a way to default the role to VLC001 here as well, but that's another issue), and then with CVI, consequently creates a customer and vendor record, and extend ECC-BP with the FLCU00/FLCU01/FLVN00/FLVN01 in the process. (Flow diagram: CRM-BP -> ECC-BP -> ECC-KNA1 & ECC-LFA1)
    Once I've gone through the setup as mentioned in the article and SAP Help, I then proceeded to create BP in CRM only to find an error in the outbound queue in CRM reporting a syntax error in ECC program SAPLSFP_CRM. It turns out that there is a missing structure in ECC table which has not been activated (Actual error message is "The data object ES_FKKVKP does not have a component called ZAHKOND_SC" . We found out that this structure is related to FI-CAX (that explains the use of function module FSL_BUPA_MAIN_INBOUND instead of COM_BUPA_MAIN_INBOUND in Faiman's article). 
    The problem is, we simply cannot activate FI-CAX as that is considered another IS solution/business function, and according to SAP notes, only one IS solution can be activated per environment (we already have IS-A-VMS). That's a brick wall for us, and I wonder if there is anything we can do to overcome this.
    Obviously I have created an OSS note to SAP and has been in touch with the support consultant, who have advised on the restriction as mentioned, but no further solution is recommended just yet.
    A few questions here:
    1) Can you validate our understanding of the CVI concept and the flow?
    2) Will the slight change to the flow to rather create BP in ECC, then via CVI create KNA1 and LFA1, and consequently via MW object CUSTOMER_MAIN create BP in CRM work? If not, any solution to this at all?
    I would appreciate your valuable feedback and a proper solution that solves our issue will be awarded with points (as always).
    Thank you

    Just an update.
    SAP got back to me after a few dialogue to confirm that the function i was intending to use (CVI via FSL) is part of FI-CA, and is considered another IS function. However, since we already have IS-A installed (switched ON), it is not possible to activate such function in the same instance as the general rule from SAP is that no more than one IS is activated in one SAP instance.
    I did not quite understand this restriction though, and wondering how automotive company who sells cars as well as act as a financial leasing company would live within the SAP environment.
    We've resorted to enhancement solution (one-way activation), which is only half a solution we expect CVI & CRM MW should be able to offer.

  • Automatic Delivery creation through VMS

    Dear Automotive wizards,
    We are using the Vehicle Management system for or automotive process as a distributor and retailer.
    The sales order - delivery settings are NOT for automatic delivery creation. However, in some cases, the delivery is getting created aytomatically in the background.
    Have done some introspection in thes 'some' cases and found that they pertain to our 'used care business'. Therein we are using only standard document typesand no changes have been done in their settings. But in some of those cases whenever a sales order is created from the VMS the R3 is also creating a delivery. This delivery doenst show in the vehicle history hence has to be dug out by looking in the dpcument flow for the sales order. The order / delivery setting are NOT for automatic creation.
    Do advise how to go about resolving this unnecessary 'speed breaker' in the IS AUTO highway!
    Thanks and regards,
    Tariq

    Thanks for the pointers but I have explored that earlier and the info therein shows that the delivery was created by the same ID and at the same time when the order was created.
    In fact the user is oblivious of the situation too since he/she is working in the VMS and from there they are supposed to move on to create the order after the delivery. But this delivery gets created by itself in the R3, and you would recall that the R3 docs dont get reflect and hence do not update the VMS vehicle status. thereby the vehile status is still as "sales order created" in VMS but the R3 has as "delivery created" there being a mismatch the VMS stops further processing.
    By the above you woujld have also got to know that we dont have batch processing or anything like that, pure simple and manual creation of dlivery through the VMS.
    The strangest thing is that it happens for only some of the times, and for only some of the users. I have tried comparing he roles for access but all have the same access. Would there be any settings for storage location specific in R3 for delivery creation? or likewise?
    Thanks and regards,
