Voyager 205 Router: Has anyone cracked it??????

Hi there,
Sorry if this has been posted before - I did a quick search and couldn't see anything.
Basically, I know people have had problems getting AV to work in 3.0 using the Voyager 205 router on BT broadband.
My question is this: Is it actually possible to audio or video chat with someone who is also using this router on Bt broadband?
I have seen lots of talk about opening ports but has this actually solved the problem for anyone?
I'm using a 1.25GHz eMac with 512MB ram running 10.4.2
Thanks!!

At last, someone else with the same problem... and maybe an answer for you (although we are still having problems).
My brother (in Belgium) and I (in UK with BT Voyager 205 router)have been unsuccessful in getting Ichat to work between us. We have been trying all of the problem solving tips you find on the web, and I was beginning to think it was my router.
However, we found a link to a US based chap where you can test your Ichat to see if it works. Both of ours did with him (hoorah! and relief to see a normal dressed guy at the other end, who is also happy to give advice), but it still does not work between my brother and myself. (Does anyone know why? We both have the latest downloads of Tiger, we both have latest Mac's, and have tried everything we can think of.)
The web address of the US guy is:
http://www.mvldesign.com/videoconferencetutorial.html
His website tips are easy to understand and lots of things to try first. You can also try to link to him to see if your camera/ichat works at all. (Try after 11pm as I think he's West Coast US.)
Hope this will be of use, and good luck.

Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive?

Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive? Apple support tech tried to tell me it wasn't possible and that the only NAS Time Machine could back up to is the Time Capsule, but I'm not buying it. I know it's doable, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which External HDDs will work and which ones won't. If not My Book for Mac, is there an External HDD that will work? (Running OS X 10.9.1 - Mavericks, btw...)

Given the nature of backups, my recommendation has always been to use a strategy that is unequivocally supported by Apple. As you already determined Apple Support unequivocally informed you that your proposal will not work, unless your router is an Apple AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule.
The exhaustive list of devices supported by Time Machine amounts to the following:
AirPort Time Capsule's built-in hard disk (any model)
External USB hard disk drive connected to a Time Capsule (any model)
External USB hard disk drive connected to an AirPort Extreme (current model only)
A hard disk drive directly connected to your Mac
That is all.
Use whatever backup device you want, but you should be aware that this site is full of reports of misery from hapless individuals who had been using NAS devices for Time Machine backups, only to find that they were incomplete, corrupted, or useless when they were required. Apple won't care if you lose your data while using a Time Machine configuration specifically excluded from their technical support documents.

Have you synced this phone, with iTunes, while the passcode was enabled? If so, plug it in, iTunes running, & hit the Restore button on the Summary Pane. This will also erase the phone.
However, if you have not synced, while the passcode was enabled, you will not be able to do this without first enereting the passcode. If that's the case, try recovery mode:

RG54GS and bt voyager 205 adsl router

hello
does anyone have an answer to help me with my problem ?
i have the RG54GS i will plug it into my adsl voyager 205 . ethernet slot and connect to wan on RG. and share my internet with pc downstairs ,which will recieve via wireless usb 11.b adapter (msi also)
but i cannot access my resi gateway via the ip . i will enter the default into my browser and it will say ,using ie .6 page not found or if i use mozilla firefox unable to access.
i have also tried connect direct thru ethernet on pc into wan on RG and even lan on RG. no joy
i tried all things . i just want to tell it that i am fix ip and set up so i can share internet.
ty in advance for any ideas
deanosbeano

yeh all is fine, i can ping everything except this default ip. 192.168.1.254 i get timed outwith i.e and with firefox get connection refused.
seen the other topics on this , but it says about the dhpc thing start/ctrl panel/network/ ethernet marvel youcon in my case/tc icp. here i get auto or manual adress. my voyager dictates my static. which is above with diff last number.
so do i put same ip in the marvel which my voyager uses . or do i put the default . i tried both to be honest. and all seems fine cept i cant browse just join with games . but my rg wont let me ping it so i cant set it up to send info to my 11b downstairs.
oh for a jargon free walkthru with screenies .

Has anyone enabled time machine using a linksys router and external hard drive? And if so how?

Has anyone enabled time machine using a link sys router and external hard drive? And if so how? I have a Linksys E4200 wireless router with a usb port on it. I also have a Western Digital Elements 1TB external hard drive. I would like to be able to use this hard drive with time machine. Has anyone done so and if so how can I do so?

You might get some responses, but we don't see many Linksys users on an Apple forum so it may be awhile before you see an answer.
It might be useful to point out that Apple does not even support Time Machine backups to the USB port on their own AirPort Extreme wireless router, so we may be heading down a very slippery slope here.
I've tried Time Machine backups on an AirPort Extreme router a number of times in the past. It's just not reliable. Works for awhile, then has corruption problems. Or has corruption issues immediately. I once went a month or so and thought I had it nailed, then got smacked with a corrupted set of backups again.
But, I guess you never know. It might work on the Linksys. If you decide to try this, I would suggest that you have another backup plan in place for your important data.
Hope that some Linksys users will respond so we can all learn.

I smashed my IPAD glass and after having it repaired I am no longer able to access wifi unless I am right next to my router. Has anyone else had this experience and what is solution?

I smashed my IPAD glass and after having it repaired I am no longer able to access wifi unless I am right next to my router. Has anyone else had this experience and what is solution?

Given the complexity in merely getting the thing open, that is likely. Or they forgot to reconnect it. See #14 and from #52 on down in: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Installing+iPad+2+GSM+Bluetooth-Wi-Fi+Antenna/6166/1

Ea 2700 has anyone been able to configure this router for trapping on a port

ea 2700 has anyone been able to configure this router for trapping on a port....if so can you help us?

Hi,
What do you mean by trapping on a port? Is it the same as port forwarding? The following link might help:

BT Voyager 205

Hi
Is anyone having the trouble with their BT Voyager 205? I have one and it very very often crashes and all of the lights on the router come on. I then have to switch it off and on again to make it work.
Please help.
Adrian.

BT Voyager 205 & iChat - How to make it all work!

I have just been going through **** to get iChat working with a BT Voyager 205 modem/router.
In the end I contacted Apple and an extremely helpful iChat Engineer from Apple contacted me. With his patient advice and tutor-ship we succeeded in making it all work perfectly.
And what you have to do is a 2 minute job. This is a direct cut n paste of his email to me less my IP address, you just put in yours. No port forwarding or port triggering nonsense. No static IP rubbish. It's all in the Voyager.
Here you go:
Open up a web browser and access the 205 control panel at http://192.168.1.1
Select the 'Advanced' option on the left of the screen to open up the advanced configuration page and then click the 'Advanced....' option.
Enter your username and password when prompted, the default username is 'admin' and the default password is also 'admin'.
Select the 'IP Routing' option in the menu on the left and then choose 'NAT Virtual Server/DMZ' from the NAT Options.
Left click on the 'Add' button and then select 'DMZ' from the rule flavour menu.
Enter a number not previously used by another rule into the 'Rule ID' box, '60' should be fine for most people.
In the 'LAN IP Address' enter the IP address of the Mac found in Network Prefs(I guess it is 192.168.1.XX)
Left click on the 'Apply' button and then left click on the red 'Save' button on the left.
You should then get a confirmation window which you can just close.
All done.
You have now put your Mac in front of the Voyagers Firewall in something called the DMZ or DeMilitarized Zone. If you don't want anymore tinkering, turn your Firewall off in Sharing Prefs and you are good to go.
If you feel insecure you then need to open a few ports in your Mac's Firewall in Sharing prefs.
Click Add and a sheet opens.
In the Port Name select Other
TCP Ports add 5190, 5298 (type them in exactly as I write them here)
UDP Port Numbers add 5060, 5190, 5297, 5298, 5353, 5678, 16384-16403 (type them in exactly as I write them here)
Description add iChat AV to give it a name.
Click OK
Then turn your Mac Firewall on. What you have just done means that though your Mac is not protected by the Voyagers Firewall, it is protecting itself. However, opening those ports allows iChat to communicate through the Mac's Firewall.
Now enjoy iChat.
This tutorial assumes you are using Tiger and Panther.

Hi SolidSilver,
That's a different way of doing things.
He has led you through this
http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/BT/Voyager205/iChat.htm
but has gone for DMZ rather than the 23 ports that need to be set up. (the pics only show port 5190 and you need more to AV chat)
If you do fancy the tinkering to get the 205 to be a Firewall as well you have to follow the page to set up port 5190 fo both TCP and UDP
Next you need to do the other 22 ports on UDP
They have to be entered one at a time in the 205 so it is time consuming.
5060
5678
16384
16385
16386...
and the others in between
....16402
16403
The above form your post and this will only work if your computer always gets the smae IP address from the 205 each time it is turned on.
If you have any connection problems check the System Preferences > Network for your current IP and see if that is where the 205 is send ing the data and amend as required.

AMSN & iSight & BT Voyager 205 - not working

Hi All,
I am wanting to use aMSN with my isight and using an ADSL router Voyager 205. However for some reasons (common i understand) the router needs the ports changing to allow the isight to work, checked out how to do it, called BT and still no luck, NOT WORKING. Need it to work to talk to my son in Brasil, and he on Windows!!!!! MSN
Keep getting the message:
type IP-Restrict-NAT
Listening - False
YOu are firewalled or behind a router
Webcam extention is loaded
Capture extention -QuicktimeTcl is loaded
IM not firewalled so it seems it is the router not finding the isight.
It gives a link to a Q & A with solution but doesnt work with my router for some reason.
CAN ANYONE HELP PLEASE.
[email protected] if you can please or [email protected] on MSN (or aMSN)

Hi
Dont Know about aMSN, first try upgrading the firmware on the 205 see http://www.zensupport.co.uk/KnowledgeBase/article.aspx?id=10453 please read carefully.
Also this is how to getting the 205 working in iChat http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2772641&#2772641
Also you might be better off using skype, Mac version http://www.skype.com/download/skype/macosx/20beta.html

Bridging voyager 205 and PPPoE in order to vpn int...

I have a BT voyager 205.
My company gave me a watchguard XTM21 so that I can VPN into their network.
I have bridged the voyager as per http://support.zen.co.uk/kb/Knowledgebase/Voyager-205-Bridging-Mode
On the watchguard, I have set the external interface as PPPoE and given a user name and password.
I have always been aware that the username and password for the PPP where ignored by BT as per this link http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/forums/1/helproom/202818/bt-broadband-router-settings/
so I have just used [email protected] as the username.
The watchguard insists on a password so I just used a dummy password (again see above link as to why I believe that to be correct.)
Bottom line is that I can see an address in the gateway column for the external watchguard interface, but an IP address of 0.0.0.0
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thanks for any help.

Thank you for your reply and assistance. I will run a capture and post back.
One other piece I left out: When in bridge mode if I do: ping google.com -f -l 1464 it works. Any higher and I get the following from the internal interface of the ASA.

Has anyone else experienced web pages in Safari being unexpectedly re-directed to knock off MMO ad sites like 'League of Angels'?

As recently as one month ago, I started experiencing a phenomenon where web-pages I was on would randomly be redirected to ad sites for knock-off MMO's. For example, if I had left a tab open to an article on Cracked.com, but was reading a different tab, the Cracked article would re-direct itself to another website. This usually was a minor annoyance, in that I would just have to go back a page in my browser, but this evening I was watching an episode on HBO Go and in the middle of streaming the video the web page abruptly changed to League of Angels. Has anyone else experienced these strange re-directs, or know what is causing them?

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "Model Identifier." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Has anyone taken their iPad 3 to Apple over Wi-Fi issues?

Has anyone taken their iPad (3rd Generation) Wi-Fi only model to an Apple store and tried to use AppleCare to solve their Wi-Fi issues?
*Start: Problem/Rant*
I had an iPad 2 Wi-Fi only model and I never had an issue with it. When the iPad (3rd Generation) was released, I went ahead and bought it. However, from day one, I never had the wireless strength of my iPad 2.
I'm a college student, live in a dorm, and I am fairly tech savvy. This problem confused me for the longest, as no environmental factors had changed and my iPad 2 would still connect at full bars. I read on some forums that many new iPad 3 users had reported that their new iPad had poorer signal strength in general after running many different diagnostic test. Apparently the radio in the device isn't as good picking up reception as the iPad 2.
After conducting some dB tests of my own, I found this to be true indeed. But I could live with it, as my iPad (3rd Generation) still connected to Wi-Fi for my dorm (as I am close to an access point). However that wasn't the end of my problems. Anytime I watched Hulu, Youtube, or streamed a movie that was at least an hour long, my wireless signal would drop completely and would pause the video to give me a blue pop-up box stating that I had no Internet connection.
I noticed that my wireless icon had gone away, but after about 1 minute it reappeared. The video wouldn't resume, so I had to refresh the page and go back to where it got stuck previously. A minor inconvenience, but still a problem. The first time, I wrote it off as a legitimate Internet problem on my campus's part. However, the same problem occurred again, about an hour later. I quickly went to my computer and tested the connection and I still had Internet. After this point, I setup two wireless devices on the same network and waited for it to occur, and when it did, I was able to conclude that it was my iPad's fault.
In the interest of getting it to work and my own curiosity, I tried all the standard troubleshooting steps such as: Rebooting the iPad, restoring the iPad, connecting to various encryption types such as my campus WPA and WEP network types. I even got a wireless router with a direct Internet connection, turned off the encryption and tested this on different channels and even g/n networks. I still get one to two minute periodic wireless network drops.
I've had this iPad 3 since launch and aside from the Wi-Fi thing, it has been great, but it has finally gotten to me. The other day, I was running low on time and was uploading my professor's notes to Dropbox that I had recorded on my iPad when the signal gave out for it's regular wireless fail and it ruined a presentation. Yeah, first world problems, but when I paid so much for this and have invested so much of my own time to fix something that should of worked in the first place, it is kind of infuriating.
/end rant
I am going to an Apple store tomorrow and using my AppleCare warranty while telling them my problem and hope that they can fix it. However I am worried that since it appears to be a hardware issue, that they won't be able to fix it. Also my iPad 3 has no screen protector and even though it is used, it is in perfect condition (I used a case for the exterior). I don't want a refurbished model which may have minor scratches (on a retina screen this would drive me insane). I am OCD about keeping my expensive stuff safe and scratch free. I know that I should of brought it in the moment I noticed the issue, but I was secretly hoping that it was just a bad firmware/software issue that would of been resolved with iOS 6.0 (obviously it wasn't) and my store doesn't accept returns on any Apple Products (Barnes & Noble) even if you open it in front of them, however they do offer AppleCare which is what I am hoping can fix it. I'm still within my year warranty, have the original receipt and box.
Does anyone have any experience with a similar issue or a wi-fi issue at all with the iPad (3rd Generation) and using AppleCare? I've read horror stories about employees doing terrible things and is it safe to not restore my iPad and just hand it over to them? I know this is just me being lazy, but is it alright for me not to delete/restore my iPad before handing it over to them? Like I don't have to worry about them posting on twitter or checking my email? After two semesters, it is kind of a hassle to put everything back on there, anyone have any bad experience just handing it over?
Lastly, is there anything I should do, before handing it over to them? Like taking pictures of what it looked like, before they handled it? Is there a way to register with Apple the MAC address of the iPad so they know that I am the owner? (well, I guess my email should be associated with that).
I know it is a long read, any questions answered would be appreciated (it doesn't have to be all), and if people want, I'll update on my experience with AppleCare regarding my issue and if it gets resolved.

I've seen a few posts from users that had wifi problems getting a replacement iPad.
A refurb iPad has a new screen, battery and back plus warranty.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

If my iPhone 5 has a cracked screen, can I still trade it in for the iPhone 6?

If my iPhone 5 has a cracked screen, can I still trade it in for the iPhone 6?
I know there is the promotion to trade in for a free iPhone 6, but will Verizon take a cracked phone?
I would hope at the least to still get a discount if not a straight up trade.
Appreciate any info if anyone knows.

You can get an appraisal for your phone here https://www.trade-in.vzw.com/home.php5
I think to get the best price towards an iPhone 6 you have to have the appraisal submitted and new phone ordered by tomorrow (9/30/14) You buy the new phone on contract price then they email you a Verizon gift card after they receive your phone and make the final decisions on how much to give you. (Suppose to take 2 weeks after mailing old phone in)
