Wireless connections are unusable (slowdown) when Wired connection is being used?

Why do Wifi connections slow down to a unusable when the Wired connection is being used continuously (e.g. downloading software, media, large files)?
How do I stop this?
I don't want the Wired connection to have some form of SuperGod priority over Wireless connections.
We are using the Linksys WRT54GL router
Ping/Latency times go from less than 100ms, when Wired connection is downloading, it shoots up to 550ms+ to over 1 second.
Websites just time out or take 5 minutes to load a broken form of it as if it half the HTML cut off in random places and the stylesheet is missing.
Download speed goes from 15Mb/s to .2 Mb/s

Thanks.
Is that the only way it will work, device-MAC address one?
What does Ethernet Port priority do?
I enabled QoS with its default setting on which has all the Ethernet ports set to Low and it did absolutely nothing to improve usability.
Does Wired QoS have any effect on Wireless connections?
Does the field for Optimizing Game Apps affect applications on computers using a Wireless connection?
There is a Wireless QoS section... However it doesn't have any options in it to select devices, port priority, or anything...?
What does enabling WMM Support do?

Disabling Wireless NIC when Wired NIC is being used ?

Hi all,
I understand that Cisco Secure services client has this feature.
However I need competitor info about this ?
I know that Juniper Odyssey also does this.. but howabout Checkpoint or Websense Endpoint Clients ? Anyone has any document or info ?
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately we don't use any third party supplicants except Intel PROSet.
Someone had mentioned this can be done via PROSet...I upgraded my version to the latest (12.4) but didn't see that option anywhere.
Could someone please confirm it's indeed available within Intel PROSet, and if so, how do I enable the feature that can disable wireless when docked or connected via wired?

All of a sudden my new iphone will not hold a charge even when it is not being used and I can't figure out why???

my battery drains even when iphone is not being used. It is a relatively new phone and this battery draining just started and I can't figure out why????

Yes, thank you. My apologies, I was typing one handed and did not add that.
Anyway, I have tried deleting the cache, deleting my pics and then re-syncing, etc. and nothing is working This is very frustrating, as I had no problems up until about 2 weeks ago, and now all of a sudden, I have this issue......UGH!

Interruption of Wireless Connection while phone use

I have been experiencing interruptions of wireless connection to my notebooks when we use a 2.4GHz wires phone.
I called the Verizon customer service about this problem, and they guided me through the changes of band channels.
As the service staff told me that the channel 11 is the best channel, we still have the same issue even though the signal
seemed to get stronger before in normal use. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
Or should I change the Verizon wireless router?

If it is possible, change the channel of your cordless phone to 1 and wireless router to 11. If the phone doesn't give you this option, I would simply purchase a new phone. Do not go for the 5.8ghz phones because they will transmit 2.4ghz frequencies from phone to base and still interfere. A DECT 6.0 (1.9 ghz) phone is the new type of phones. They are crystal clear and do not interfere with Wireless B/G technology.
HUH??? Whacha talkin about Willis?
5.8 Ghz phones transmit at 5.8 Ghz, not 2.4. Hence the 5.8Ghz. The only wireless transmission is from the handset to the base and that is the frequency that the phone is rated for. There is no other transmission on the system.
Edit:. Ok, I did some research and found that SOME 5.8 phones transmit 5.8 from the base to the handset and then 2.4 from the handset to the base. However, Most do not. The ones that do this is to save on battery life of the handset. Most transmit on the 5.8 both directions, but there are some that do use the 2.4 on the return. So you do have to look at the phone before you purchase to see which it is.
As for the problem the thread started on. You've got the reason, the phone and internet work on the same frequency. The channel changes can help but are not a solution. You may find a channel that reduces the drop offs and many people do find that this is an acceptable work around, some even reduce it to the point of it not being an issue anymore. BUT the underlying problem is still there. Every device responds differently to the interference problem. The ONLY solution is to change the phone to one that works on a different frequency. Since the wireless internet cannot change frequencies, changing the phone is the only solution. The other options are all workarounds and bandaids. If your lucky they may help, but if your like me, your not that lucky.

References are becoming invalid when passed to an actor using the Actor Framework

I have having an issue with passing a couple of references to an actor using the actor framework 3.0.7 (LabVIEW 2011 & TestStand 2010 SP1).
Some background:
My application has three main components:
Main VI -- is not part of any class and Launches UI Actor.
UI Actor -- Launches the teststand actor
TestStand Actor -- Initializes and starts teststand.
The two references showing similar behavior (invalid reference) are the TestStand App Manager control and the "Current VI's Menubar" reference. The App Mgr control is on the front panel of the UI Actor's Actor Core.vi. The menubar reference is retrieved in the block diagram of the UI Actor's Actor Core.vi
Now,
When I run the Main VI I get an error in the TestStand Actor's Actor Core.vi (Remember Main VI launches UI Actor launches TestStand Actor) because the App Mgr and menubar references are invalid (. I have checked and verified that in this scenario the references are valid in the UI Actor before it launches the teststand actor.
If I run the UI Actor's Actor Core.vi stand alone (i.e. run it top level) the App Mgr and menubar references are passed to the teststand actor, no error occurs, and the code functions as expected.
Why would these references be invalid by simply starting a different top level VI? Could it have something to do with when the references are passed vs. when the front panel is loaded into memory?
I tried putting the App Mgr control on the front panel of the Main VI and passing it to the UI Actor and then to the TestStand Actor. This works....
Anyone have any experience or knowledge to why this is occurring?

Generally, references in LV are "owned" by the hierarchy they are first created in, and the hierarchy is determined by the top level VI. Once the hierarchy goes idle or out of memory, the references created by that hierarchy are automatically closed. That's usually what causes something like this - the reference is created in one hierarchy (let's say the main VI hierarchy) and then that hierarchy stops running.
I don't know the AF well enough to say if that's really the case (I actually thought that it always launches a separate top level dynamic process, which I assumed is where the UI actor's core VI would always be called), but that might help explain it. If not, you might wish to post to the AF group in the communities section.

Mail won't send mail when in wireless mode but works fine when wired

Ok, this happens all the time. I have several pop email accounts, all of which work fine when I am hooked in to an ethernet cable, but Apple Mail won't send any of my outgoing mail form any of my accounts when i'm am working wirelessly.
I always get a message like:
Cannot send message using server smtp.name.net
I try to switch servers and I cycle through all of them, getting them same message, followed by things like:
The server response was: 5.1.2 Bad or missing RCPT domain k39sm5757680wah
Any advice.

Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list. Leave checked (enabled) only the port configuration needed to connect to Internet and Built-in Ethernet (in that order if not the same), uncheck (disable) the rest of network port configurations and see whether that helps — if it doesn’t, turn ON again the ones you want enabled.
You may use “network locations” to more easily switch between network settings if necessary, as described here:

EXTEND WIRELESS CONNECTIVITY OF UC500 USING AP 1130G

Hello guys,
I have a uc500 which is setup with three ssids, GUEST,DATA,VOICE. My problem is that the wireless signal is very weak in some areas of the office so i decided to extend those ssids using an ap.
Could you please assist me with the configuration settings on the ap so that i have the same ssids on both uc500 and the ap?
I know that a trunk link should be created between those two devices but i have never worked with an ap so i don't know what configuration it needs to extend those ssids.
Please find below the config on uc500

Now to test that I actually roam between the two APs or if a wireless device just locks onto the first strongest signal and then stays homed to that AP regardless of changing signal strengths.
That will depend to a large degree on what devices you are talking about.
A Mac computer will usually automatically "switch" wireless access points as it moves from one area to another.
But, devices like the iPhone and iPad usually will not do this. Instead, they tend to hold onto the signal from the original device to which they have connected.....even if you move them closer to another wireless access point. Nature of the beast with iOS.
If you want the iPhone and iPad to pick up the best signal, you will need to get in the habit of temporarily turning off the WiFi on the device as you move it from one area to another, then turn the WiFi back on and the device will usually pick up the signal from the strongest access point.
Sometimes.....the iOS device will switch access points on its own after a few minutes, and sometimes it won't. So, manually turning WiFi off and then back on is probably the best way to get the iPhone or iPad to connect to the strongest signal.

How do I connect my apple tv to my tv when the HDMI is being used for the freeview box?

I have an apple tv that I want to set up to my tv. Currently the HDMI on my tv is connected to the HDMI on the freeview box we have. How do I connect all three?

Melaniejf
You can buy an HDMI splitter or switcher to take two (or more) inputs into one port. Just put a search into your search engine and they will come up or visit your local electronic shop.

Colours are not changing when a certain value is used

Hi all. This might look strange. But anywayz...
I am developing a game related to controlling trains and preventing them from clashing into one another. Naturally, my game allows the user to control the colour of the signals present at each station. My game has 3 layers: the first one does the game calculations, the second does the rendering aspects of the game, and the third constantly passes latest game data to the rendering layer.
Now, the data for the signals comes from the first layer as an array of Integers. The array is named 'aspect'. Below is the code:
switch(aspect.intValue())
case 1:
objGraphics.setColor(java.awt.Color.RED);
break;
case 2:
objGraphics.setColor(java.awt.Color.ORANGE);
break;
case 3:
objGraphics.setColor(java.awt.Color.GREEN);
System.out.println("green");
The default colour of all the signals is red. Now while the game is in progress, if the user changes the colour of the signal to, for example, green, the change is not reflected on-screen. However, the SOP call works fine - the word 'green' is printed in the console.
What further surprises me is that if I change the statement 'case 1' to 'case 4', and then while the game is in progress, change the colour to green, then the change is reflected on the console.
I placed SOPs to find out if the values inside 'aspect' are correct. Ya they are correct - they contain values '1' at the start of the game, and when the user changes to green, then they contain '3'.
So what could be the problem?

Jeez... sorry.. my mistake.
What I was doing was this: for drawing the signals, I take all the signals from the Calculations layer and store them in a Vector. Now this becomes a Vector of Integer arrays.
In the Rendering layer, I have a loop which draws the stations. I also have a method which draws the aspects for each station. Inside the loop, for each station, I call this method. But I don't know what I was thinking while writing the method - I wrote it such dat it draws all the signals for all stations. Thus, for each call, it would redraw all the signals, not the ones for the current station.
I have changed dat now, and it works. When the user selects a station and then selects the signal he wants, the change is rendered onscreen. Yippee!!
sabre150, u were right after all!!! Also, thanks to all those who stopped by to rack ur brains over an issue that shouldn't have been one in the first place.
But what I don't understand is this: Even with my wrong code, shouldn't the change be rendered? Ya, I know it was rendering the signals repeatedly, but then it should have rendered them rightly, isn't it? Or am I not getting something?

How do I display ethernet connection is being used rather than WI-FI connection in the menu bar/elsewhere?

I have a new 13" retina MacBook Pro - I have wi-fi connection but also a thunderbolt/ethernet adapter that allows me to connect to my network
Sometimes, the ethernet connection does not connect and I do not notice for a while (possibly a dodgy TP-LINK plug adapter thingy)
My question is - how can I display that I am connected/using the ethernet connection rather than the wi-fi? The wi-fi symbol stays in the menu bar but it would be nice to see that I am using the ethernet connection instead
Many thanks
Mike

I don't think you can do that. You can only display the WiFi connection on the menu bar.

Built in isight 'not connected' or 'being used by other app'

i just bought a macbook pro (os x 10.4.5; 1.83 ghz; upgraded to 1gig ram) yesterday, and when i attempted to open Photobooth to take a pic with the built in isight camera, an error came up saying, "Photobooth cannot open because either no camera is attached or the camera is in use by another application." i literally took the machine out of the box, went through some of the setup, then shut it down again...did i do something wrong??

it ended up being a hardware defect, so apple kindly replaced my system with no hassles! thanks apple!!

What happens when the Powerbook is being used as a laptop?

Sorry if you read this twice - I mistakenly posted it as a reply rather than a question. I am waiting for my new Powerbook along with an Airport Extreme Base Station. I plan to network the Powerbook with 2 PC desktops and a PC laptop.I know I will have to use the Powerbook to configure the network, but I want to know whether it will have to be present and connected whenever the network is in use - it is, after all, a laptop and therefore sometimes not in the house. There are only two of us living here, each of whom will own a desktop and laptop when the Powerbook gets here. Would it make a difference to accessibility when the Powerbook is travelling if we connect one of the desktops to the lan port on the Base Station instead of running everything wirelessly?

Lenono Vibe X2 Battery Die even when phone is not being used

HI,
I baught Lenovo Vibe X2 couple of months back, and I continuously noticed that the battery of my phone die within 4-5 hours. Even i am not using my phone at all it doesn't work for more then 7-8 hours.
I am seriously not able to understand what to do with this mobile. Having a new mobile in my hand with charger connected everywhere i go. This is not acceptable from such a big brand.
I would like to add one more thing, after use of 10-15 minute it heats up like a buring stove.
I upgraded it with the updates but nothing worked at all, and now i am in serious trouble as my job is to travel a lot.
Please suggest me what to do.
Thanks,
Santosh
XXXXXXXXX
Moderator note: Personal information removed for member's protection.

This is not usualy for the X2. The X2 does not really heat up and the battery should last for at least a day with normal usage. I don't have the X2 but it should have about 4 to 5 hours of onscreen, that is when you have the screen on for 4 to 5 hours that is how long it should last. With moderate ussage you should last a day.
It could be either that you installed some apps that are killing your battery or you get some third party viruses or malware. If this would be the case you could reset the phone to factory settings and get everything that should not be there deleted and wiped out. I would not even do a back-up to make sure all is deleted fully and truly.
Second, your phone could have some hardware issue and for that you are best to cotact the service center and they might repair or exchange your unit. Finally, if you go the Settings > Power management > Power consumption details --- you will see what app or hadware is consuming your batter the most, and based on that you can act.

Screenshot - when option key is being used to view the info

Hello
I want to take a screenshot of the "WIFI detail information" that you can view ONLY, if you hold the "option key" and select the WIFI from the menu bar wifi icon. If you do this (option key while selecting wifi) then apple yosemite osx shows you the detailed information about the wifi you are using in real time e.g. speed, channel, noise etc.
I wanted to take this "Screenshot" of the wifi settings I can see, and select the wifi hot spot by my ISP but i cannot take a screenshot as the standard screenshot keys are not accessible if I am using the option key already.
I need this screenshot, to try and help me troubleshoot a problem. That problem is --- my local ISP is trying to tell me there is a problem with my apple macbook and my apple iphone (3gs), as even though I select the wifi, no internet is coming thru and my iphone uses my mobile broadband rather than the free wifi hotspot, my ISP as been marketing is available to me. This problem is intermittent. Sometimes it works as suppose to and somedays it does not. As a temporary measure, I turn OFF mobile data and then i know for sure when the wifi is working or not.
So in my troubleshooting steps, I wanted to show the ISP the difference I see of their WIFI settings, on the days it works and the days it does not work. As same macbook and same iphone device and same ISP plan(number) and same free wifi hotspot location trying to connect to the ISPs free wifi hotspot. In fact I have tried 3 of the free wifi hot spot locations on the days it does not work in location 1 and all the same problem, no internet.
thankyou for your time
regards,

sea3,
After displaying the WIFI detail using the option key, use Command (⌘)-Shift-3 to take a Screenshot of the entire screen.

Why does the string indicator revert to default value when it's not being used?

Can anyone explain to me why one of the two string indicators in the attached VI reverts to it's default value (empty) when the case structure is false?

LabView bug.vi ‏8 KB

String 1 is wired to the connector pane...that's why you're seeing this behavior. Disconnect String 1 from the connector pane and it will behave just like String 2. Likewise, connect String 2 to the connector pane and you'll see it get blanked out too. I'm not really sure why we empty the value when it's wired to the connector pane, but the behavior goes back to LabVIEW 8.0, maybe earlier.
