Windows 7 and WRT54GS2 connectivity problem

I have a WRT54G2s router - I currently have a XP laptop and Brother printer working wirelessly with this router. I received a new computer that is running windows 7. I can see the router at full strength and am able to connect to it but once I connect the signal is reduced to one bar and never increases. When I see the network before connection it shows at full strength. Any insight as to why this is happening? I have tried disconnecting all other devices from the router to see if there is interferance - also sitting right next to the router the same thing happens. I can hardwire with ethernet calbe and it works fine but once I try wireless - again the W7 computer sees it at full strength but once I make a connection it is so weak I can barely get an internet connection. Please help - this is incredibly frustrating - I have updated to the latest version of firmware and when I try and use the network troubleshooter in windows it tells me it cannot detect the problem and sends me to a website that is of no help.

Did you tried to connect to any other network and checked if you are facing the issue?
Well make sure that you are using Security Mode as WPA2.
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
Click on the Wireless tab
- Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
- Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbors network...
- Set the Wireless channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
For Wireless Security : -
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key.
NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
Change the Beacon Interval to 75,Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304,Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 and Click on Save Settings...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...
This should fix the issue for you.

PHP and MySQL Connection problem

I am trying to make a PHP MySQL on a remote server connection in Dreamwesaver CS3.
When I enter the information (host, user, password, etc.) and hit TEST, I get the following error message.
"Access Denied. The file may not exist, or there could be a permission problem. Make sure you have proper authorization on the server and the server is properly configured."
I know the user, password, etc. work, as I can access the MySQL database with other software.
I checked with my host and they say there are no permission problems on their end.
I have checked the settings on the Test Server page in Site Setup and everything looks correct and works there.
I have not seen this particular problem described in other forum postings (although there are a LOT of postings on this topic!).
Any help would be appreciated.

I thought my testing server was the remote server and is always on as far as I know. I don't know how to turn it on or off.
Is there some other testing server that I should be aware of?

Remote and keynoteRemote connection problems

Hello
I have installed the Remote App, and bought KeynoteRemote, but I cannot make any of them talk to my Macbook correctly.
IpodTouch (2G, fw2.2.1), Remote.app (1.2.1), Macbook alu (10.5.6), Itunes (8.1.1).
Ipod and Macbook are on the same Wifi network, the firewall is set to let Itunes (and keynotes from iwork09) pass thru.
I can see the iPod appearing in Itunes (and keynotes), both will ask me the passcode, I enter the numbers and nothing more happens.
iTunes asks for them again, keynotes says the ipod is not responding.
What else should I lookk for to solve this problem ?
Thanks

Try setting your firewall on your MacBook to Allow all Incoming Connections. Do this at least long enough to see if that will allow you to connect. You can also use the Set Access for specific services and applications setting.
These two articles discuss ways to troubleshoot the apps:
Remote: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1741
Keynote Remote (from the manual) Using Keynote Remote
If you have an iPhone or iPod touch, you can purchase and download the Keynote
Remote application from the App Store and use it to control your slideshow. After
you’ve purchased the Keynote Remote application, you must link it to your computer
before you can use it. To do this, your iPhone or iPod touch and computer must be on
the same Wi-Fi network.
You must open the Keynote slideshow document on your computer before you can
begin to control it using the Keynote Remote.
To link your Keynote Remote:
1 Open Keynote on your computer and choose Keynote > Preferences.
2 Click Remote in the Preferences window and select “Enable iPhone and iPod touch
Remotes.”
3 Click the Keynote Remote application icon on your iPhone or iPod touch.
4 On your iPhone or iPod touch, create a link to Keynote, following the instructions on
the device.
A passcode appears.
5 In Keynote, click the link button next to the remote device that you want to pair with,
and type the passcode into the window that opens in Keynote.
6 Close Keynote preferences.
I would get the iTunes app working first and then work on the Keynote remote. It is probably the same basic problem effecting both.

MacBook Pro and Airport connection problem

My MacBook Pro has a volatile connection to my Airport Express base station.
I have a 2-month old 15.4" MacBook Pro (Intel Core 2 Duo), all software updates are installed, etc. I connect to the internet through an Airport base station. For the past few days my MBP has had a dodgy connection, slowing down at seeming random and then occasionally disconnecting from the base station entirely, although the Airport icon on the MBP is always on. While downloading a file I noticed that the speed of the connection was incrementally slowing until it stopped, and it was only after a couple of retries and then connecting to the base station again (by finding it amongst the other networks on the pull-down menu that you get when you click on the Airport icon) that my connection resumed at its previous speed.
My 12" PowerPC iBook connects to the internet over this Airport base station at full speed, no problems.
I've tried resetting the PRAM on my MBP without change.
One possibly noteworthy change is that this past week I updated my Parallels software to 3.0, which may have an effect based on some of the other threads I've read.
What now?!

After trying all of the above the suggestions, the problem returned as before. However, after digging some more I discovered that the issue appears to lie with the 10.4.10 version of the Mac OS; when I checked the software log under the system profiler I noticed that I had installed that update at about the time my Airport problems began. Apple then quietly released a v 1.1 combo update to 10.4.10 on July 2nd, which once installed appears to have resolved the problem. You can find the download at http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10410comboupdatev11intel.html
What's curious is that originally Apple listed that the v 1.1 combo update resolved some issues with RAW image data, and some sound problems, which don't seem to have anything to do with Airport.

Broadband/internet and wireless connection problem...

Towards the end of 2101 I received an email informing me that BT would be upgrading my local line and I could expect a much improved service. Whether this 'upgrade' has been the cause of my problems or is merely coincidental I cannot say. Prior to my experience since this time I could count lost broadband in hours per year (I never had internet or wireless connection problems).
Since the end of 2010 I now regularly lose my broadband completely every six to eight weeks. 'Home Hub cannot connect to broadband.' There is a worsening loss of speed? over a period of two to four days at the end of which I need to phone BT three/four/five, etc. times until they manage to locate the problem and fix it. It is always some problem they find on the line or with their equipment.
I always mention that this is an ongoing problem. Never do they take any action to escalate the issue.
This week things have become considerably worse.
I have started to lose my internet connection now. 'Safari cannot connect to the internet'.
There are now two issues which arise concurrently.
I phoned BT, finally the operative in India (through a very poor BT wireless phone connection) changed the channel of my router for me. He mentioned something about changing the address and password. This seriously exacerbated the situation. My password is not recognised now when I am asked to reconnect by selecting a network.
The next occasion on which I lost my INTERNET connection and tried to reconnect I got the message 'Airport has the self-assigned IP address (...........) and is unable to connect to the internet.
I phoned BT to report this and was told that this indicated an adapter problem and the problem was now out of BT's hands. I Should contact Apple.
I did so. Apple said I should contact BT to change channels. I explained this had caused the problem and they were now refusing to assist me. Apple tried everything that they could think of to resolve the issue (despite not being required to do so). Eventually the only suggestion they could make as BT had refused to help was to reinstall my operating system. Extremely drastic. But I can now connect wirelessly again.
Service is still intermittent requiring constant restarts to regain connections.
BT's response to a formal complaint was more of the usual banal questions, the usual tests, the usual promises of 'something would be done'.
Their systems are not set up to make any sort of accurate diagnosis of customers' issues. They seem to have a set number of 'fixes' into which they try to fit all problems - one would assume simply to save costs - their cost saving exercises are now costing me money.
That's all for starters.
Any suggestions?
Solved!

I have a similar problem, since BT "upgraded my broardband" my home hub looses internet connection at least twice a day and I have to power reset it. the broadband shows as connected but the internet connection is lost, if I try reconnecting it fails and only a power resetr will work. I have a temp solution by fitting a time switch to the mains adaptor and reseting it at 0200 each day. but before the upgrade the home hub had worked for years and no problems. i have also replaced the origonal home hub 1 with a home hub 2 to see if that improves the situation.
welcome to the forum
This subject has been marked as solved by the originator and you will get more response if you start your own subject rather than continue here.
if you start your own subject just cut and paste your post and then in order to help please can you post the adsl stats from your router may need to 'show detail' to get all stats (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and navigate to adsl or use a-z, if netgear enter 192.168.0.1) and run btspeedtester (MAC users may have problems) http://speedtester.bt.com and post the results .
are you connected directly to the NTE5 master or test socket or to somewhere else? Do you have any phone extension sockets in your home?
Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal
Someone may then be able to offer help/assistance/suggestions to your problem

Vista and AX connectivity problem

Hi there, I've been trying to connect my wife's new Toshiba Satellite to our home network, but I'm having trouble. We use an Airport Express 802.11 g/n that we just bought and everything has worked fine on it before. We both have Macs, and this is her work computer. Her old one ran on Win XP and was fine, but this new one with Vista is cutting in and out on us randomly. I guess it boots her off the network, but I'm not sure. I've been looking around the forum for a while now, and the best solution seemed to have more to do with network printing. But this is just a connection issue, and nothing else. Any ideas? Thanks.
Daniel
Oh by the way, the Airport Utility sees the Toshiba and seems to think it's connected just fine, from the summary page. It shows up there. Thanks.

As I explained in my first post, I used BCA to create the partitions, and the 32GB reference in the Instructions refers to whether you want to read and write to the Windows partition in both Windows and Mac sessions. Under 32GB you can, over you can't.
Besides when I did it last time, I created a 350GB partition with no issue and installed Vista on that. I just don't understand why this time it won't see the drive.
One other small piece of info. When the Boot Camp partition is created and I restart and press the ALT key, I only see the Macintosh partion and the Windows Disc CD. Should I see a Boot camp icon at that point?
Thanks..

Bluetooth keyboard and mouse connectivity problems

I have an Apple bluetooth keyboard and Mighty Mouse connected to my Macbook Pro 13", running ML 10.8.1.
The keyboard and mouse will constantly disconnect and re-connect on their own every few minutes. I'll see the "connection lost" notification, and then shortly after the "connected" notification. Also, even when the keyboard is connected, it often becomes unresponsive and/or strange things happen, such as the special characters menu appearing above the cursor (which I believe there is a keyboard shortcut to invoke, but I'm not doing that; it appears on its own).
This never happened in Lion.
Any idea what's happening and how to fix it?

Tiger and USB and Classic connection problems

I have two instances where a USB device that worked in Panther/Classic will not connect/work in Tiger 10.4.3/Classic.
One is StylusRIP software from Epson that I use to print Postscript files (mainly from IllustratorCS) with my Epson Stylus 3000. When it's working, the RIP runs in Classic, but shows up as a printer choice in the Print Center. It worked fine in Panther/Classic, but since I upgraded to Tiger the printer is not recognized. The printer works in OSX using the non-Postscript driver, so I know that basic connectivity (cables, ports, etc.) is OK.
The other is a RoboLab USB infrared transmitter. Same scenario.
While troubleshooting the transmitter, I tried booting into OS9 (on my G4) and the connection was made. It worked fine. I tried the same thing with StylusRip, and it too worked fine, the printer was recognized.
My USB Epson scanner still works in OSX, but it has a native driver.
Can anyone tell me what could be different about the way Tiger handles USB that could affect the interoperability with devices/software that require Classic?
Any suggested troubleshooting? Is it possible to "reset" the USB ports? I've reset the PRAM, haven't tried resetting NVRAM.

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I am running 9.2.2. The only thing that changed was the update to Tiger. I have called ESPON, and they refer me to Adobe because they licensed the RIP from Adobe. I've not had any success with that yet. The last update of RIP does not support the Stylus 3000 printer, and I don't think it's native anyway. The set-up I was using was a "non-supported workaround", so I may just be out of luck. Which is a pain, because the printer still has some miles on it. I may try to see if I can use an older Mac running 9.2.2 as a print server.
Robolab has an OSX native update out, so we will get that.
What I found curious was that both pieces of software, or the USB connectivity required by both, was broken by Tiger.

Apple keyboard and mouse connection problems with windows 7

Hello everyone,
I just completed the installation of windows 7 home premium on my bootcamp partition, and even though in the beginning my keyboard worked properly after installing some windows updates it stopped working.
So, i tried to reinstall the specific bootcamp drivers(as described in installation guide), I also tried repair drivers but the problem continues!
Has anyone experienced something like this ? Could you advise me something?
Thank you!

Hi lolarennt,
Have just done the same as you on the same system. It took over 12 hours of mucking around. Had lots of problems with the black screen issue, mouse not working, failing to load error message 0x80070071 ( all this from memory... saw it a few times LOL). The bottom line was I started up in Mac version and using disk utility repaired permissions and then started a fresh and sixth install. To cut a long story short, this fixed my installing issues. My mouse didn't work initially, an issue with "DPInst.exe" something to do with the 64 bit install. I then updated the win7 programme using the update windows function and things now work fine. Granted the mouse does take a short while to work after starting Win7(10seconds or so) but no further problems...yet! BTW I had to update something like 79 installs totalling over 250mb and if you go down this path don't interrupt the updating process, because you'll have to restore and redo the updates ( I did thinking the system had shutdown). I only updated win7 not any other MS programme. Enjoy

Jabber for Windows and Unity Connection Voice mail out of sync

Hello all,
Now that Jabber is pretty much part of every install you begin to notice some trends. One trend that I have noticed happening across several of customers is complaints about Jabber and the Voicemail server getting out of sync. It’s never really been a wide spread issue but it has be noticed by several of my customers enough so that I’m reaching out to see if others are experiencing the same problem. Here are the symptoms, a person sitting at their desk they have a physical phone, and a windows PC running Jabber 4 Windows. They miss a call and the MWI lamp gets lit on the phone but not on Jabber. When you click on HELP / Show Connection status, you see all green checks, and Voicemail shows connected from Jabbers standpoint. When you exit the application and come back in, then it sync’s back up just fine. I have never seen it happen myself, but to be honest I’m never at my desk enough to even notice if my phone lamp is lit.
Anyway has anyone had similar issues? If so is there a fix?

Symptom:
User logged in Jabber and do not log-off/sign-out for more than 24 hours and then jabber does not receive new voicemails from Unity Connection. User will be able to receive voicemails from other interfaces like Outlook, TUI but voicemails will not show up in Jabber.
Conditions:
User does not sign out from jabber for more than 24 hours since last log on.
Workaround:
Sign out from jabber at-least once a day and sign-in back so that subscription will not expire in Unity Connection database.
Voicemail does not sync if Jabber left logged in for more than 24 hours

Can be fixed, depends on releases, TAC offered me a fix in version 10.5(1)ES29

i got stopped at 7th step whre its asking me password ...
when i agve it compeleted 50% then got disconnected
i did all above settings which are mentioned above , but still did not got success . plz help me its an urgent
Anajli

Hi Anjali,
Generally it takes more than half an hour to Import CR Content from Server.
If this fails, there should be network connectivity failure or some connectivity issue. I dont think there is any problem with portal or SLD.
As you say >>i got stopped at 7th step whre its asking me password ...
This clearly indicates there is a connectivity failure that asks for the password. Check whether you have set any time out option.
Regards,
venkat.

Lumia 620 & Windows Phone App Connection Problems

I've been having problems with a Lumia 620 connecting to the Windows Phone App on my Windows 8 laptop. The App keeps reporting that the phone has a problem and is not playing nicely. I've eliminated the laptop as the issue as my Lumia 920 connects without a hitch. I'm guessing the issue is with the Lumia 620's software as it was recently updated in the past two months. Any solutions out there apart from resetting the phone?

you could try to uninstall the windowsphone app from your laptop and reinstall it to see if maybe it wasn't connecting and loading the drivers correctly.

Hibernation not working correctly and ThinkVantage connection problem

Hi -
I searched this but couldn't find my problem. I'm sure it's out there but didn't see it.
My computer will not go into hibernation on its own. I have it set to go off after 1hr not on battery. I don't have a mouse hooked up to it or any other external device. Does anyone know why this is. It will not go into standby mode either. The only feature that works is shutting my LCD off.
If anyone has a solution please let me know.
Also, I would like to get rid of my ThinkVantage connection manager. Is there a way to make it go away without uninstalling? I would rather use Microsoft's manager instead.
Thank you,
Lenovo T500 - Windows XP Professional

For the wireless connectivity...
Having two wireless clients both trying to control the card usually causes problems. My suggestion:
1. Use Access Connections, but create the WZC (Windows Zero Config) profile within Access Connections by using "Use Windows to configure wireless" under the wireless security type. Be sure before you do this, that and previously existing profiles under WZC that you created and gone. (So basically have to recreate the profiles and new ones under Access Connections)
or
2. Uninstall Access Connections and use WZC exclusively. Trying to use WZC to manage wireless with Access Connections installed will just cause problems (disconnects, etc...)
