WRT400N Frequent disconnects and now Connection Not even Viewable

We purchased this router looking for the speed and ability to have 2.4 and 5gh at the same time. Have 5 laptops connected but only 2-3 used at a time. 2 dell, 1 Toshiba and 1 vaio. Once I installed it took an hour to get the internet to be recognized and wireless to work. SInce then every time I put the computer on sleep or shut down the internet disconnects. The reconnect was usually fast , maybe 5-ten seconds. However yesterday we started experiencing the internet connection dropping all together and the router/connection not even being recognized on the wireless option in the Network and Sharing section of Windows 7. I have never seen where you can't even click on the connection to diagnose etc. As of this morning there was still no connectivity. I have rebooted the DSL (Brighthouse Cable) modem, rebooted and rest the router numerous times. The internet might show back up for a few seconds, and then drop again. I'm two seconds away from returning this puppy as it's only been a few days since we got it. Any insight or help would be greatly appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Login to the setup page of your Router and below change the MTU size to 1350 and click on save settings, then under the wireless tab change the wireless channel to 1 or 11 and click on save settings. Now again try to connect to your wireless network.

My iPhone 3 is stuck in Recovery Mode and now will not even come up in iTunes

I bought my phone last week and only received it yesterday and last night, i was updating it on itunes, when it went into recovery mode.
I have tried many different ways of getting it out and nothing has helped at all.
And now, my iTunes will not even recognise the device.
When I was trying to restore the phone it kept coming up with code 1015.
Please help!

Morning lisa-mariefromqld,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software.
For more information on this, take a look at this article:
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694#error1015
To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.
For more troubleshooting on this, take a look at this article:

After running Office 2011 for 1 year with no problem all programmes stopped working today. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and now can not even put in registration key. Is it Security Update 2015-003 problem?

After running Offcie 2011 for 12 months with no problem, today I can not open any of the programs.
Have followed some advice forums but no resolution.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled and now get the same error when trying to open one of the programs and trying to add activation key.
Updated with Security Update 2015-003 yesterday is this causing the problem?
Running Yosemite 10.10.2

Me too. It has been 3 days since I have no access to iCloud mail. No matter I check it on iCloud.com, Mac, iPhone or iPad, the mail app says I have incorrect password. Specifially, when I check email on my Mac, the message below appears and prompt me to type in the password. I am sure that I've entered the correct password already.
The iCloud IMAP server “p99-imap.mail.me.com” rejected the password for user “my user name”
Enter your password again or cancel.
Staying away from email for a day is OK, but definietly not for 3 or 4 days. Someone, please tell me what to do. If it has to do with the servers, Apple, PLEASE FIX IT ASAP!!

Did the iPod connect before?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

I was downloading podcast video in my itouch using wifi, but suddenly my wifi got disconnected and now there is a link in my podcast list which on opening uses wifi to play that video. I want to delete that link. Right to left swapping is not working.

I bet this is too late but...
Are you trying to print through the airport express wirelessly or the built in wireless of the lexmark? If you want to use the airport express, there is no need to mess with the wireless printing on the lexmark at all. The airport express will be easy to set up, all the wireless setups through the printers are a pain.

You cannot backup photos to iCloud.
You can enable Photo Stream (in Settings > iCloud) but only for 30 days and only a max of 1000 photos.
Then what does this mean? It was copied from the kb article that I posted above.
Reducing the size of your Camera Roll backup
If you take lots of photos and videos with your iOS device, you may notice your Camera Roll takes up most of your iCloud Storage backup. To check the size of the Camera Roll backup on your device:
On your Home Screen, tap Settings.
Tap iCloud.
Tap Storage & Backup.
Tap Manage Storage.
In the Backups section, tap your device.
In the Backup Options section, the backup size is displayed under Camera Roll.
To reduce the size of your Camera Roll backup, save your photos and videos locally to your computer with iTunes, and then manually back up your iOS device. If you want to keep your photos and videos on your iOS device, you can turn off Camera Roll in Backup (see the "Deleting backups and turning off Backup for your Device" section above) orpurchase additional storage.

TS3048 my wireless mouse is not working at all. I have changed the batteries and still nothing, not even a flashing green light. I am using someone else's computer to ask these questions as I now can't use mine. Help!!!

I just had the same problem. And I found the solution, on Youtube.
The problem is that these ******** at apple designed the battery compartement, the distance between metal contacts too big.
That means the batteries plus or minus poles are not touching the corresponding contacts in the mouses battery compartement.
Most likely the battery doesn't get pushed up to touch the plus contacts.
I used a fingernail to push the battery up and tadaa, the green LED came on.
The guy in the Youtube video just put some folded aluminium foil under the minus poles for bridging the gap.
See here, "How to fix the Apple Magic Mouse!":

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

My IPhone4 keeps buzzing randomly and now it wont even charge

My IPhone4 keeps buzzing randomly and now it wont even charge !! Please "HELP"
Info:
IPhone 4
Version : 5.1
I was having this problem with the vibration IPhone keeps vibrating randomly with no notification don't know what's the problem with it !!
And currently when I tried to charge it it wont charge I tried to do some research about this issue and have read some of the same problem
here in the forum with same issue and done almost everything changed the cable , core , usb did the hard reset still nothing !!!
Any idea would be appreciated . Thanks
Updated:
I discovered that its not a battery issue
The reason is that it's chargeable while the phone is switched off completely !
after a while you can see the battery charge is full 100%
but when it's switched on the phone wont charge or recognized
the cable from wall charger or usb so I the ITunes won't sync or see the device !
I think its something with the software !
I tried to update to IOS 5.1.1 but after downloading
it wont install the new update I got this message;
"Unable to Install Update"
An error occurred installing IOS 5.1.1
So that only chance which I think it might hwlp solving the problem is dead now
I really have no idea what to do other than taking this phone to Apple
:If you have similar issue you can write here or you can check the following post

OK folks I started my deep research about this issue ( MY problem )
Don't know if some one out there is even got similar issue
The battery is charging well while my phone is switched off so last night
my Iphone runs out of charge completely 0% so I plugged the cable
and switch it on after a while and all the sudden it shows that the battery
is charging while its switched on !!
If you want to do this you have to plug the charging cable first then turn off
your Iphone and wait for a while then turn it back on ( sipmle off ) no need
for the (Hard) Reset or recovery mode / DFU mode .
Just as a normal way to of switching off your Iphone by
Holding down the sleep/wake button at the top right-hand corner of the iPhone for a few seconds.
This will bring up a screen asking you to run the slider across the screen to turn off the iPhone.
Wait few seconds and repeat that with holding that same sleep/wake button at the top right-hand corner for like a Sec and it will turn on , Then you can
see that your phone is charging while its on !
If you unplug your charging cable this will ruin the whole plan and if you
you plug it again it wont show anything and will not be able to charge
while its on and you have to repeat that procedure.
Now we are sure that out Dock and Charging Port and battery are working fine , So whats the problem here and why my PC wont detect my Iphone ??
Well I assume its from a part called ( PMU IC ) Power Management Unit IC
http://www.buyforapple.com/product_images/j/iphone4_power_management_un__72870.j pg
Check this out :
http://youtu.be/MJPKuLy7XQQ
So I think my main problem is from that tiny part that makes all that
problem I have now so I have to replace it first just to make sure before
replacing any other parts so this is the start I hope this was the problem
that caused all this !!!
If you have any similar issue to mine I really appreciate any advice ,
suggestions regarding this matter .
Thanks for reading
Have a great time

! just got a new docking system so i plugged it in to my computer because it wasnt the wall charge type, so I put in my ipod, then straight away my screen went white and now its not doing anything! i press the home and lock button nothing happens... then i plug it in my computer it doesnt come up in itunes or even the copmuter. please help i can not live with out my ipod!

Your post is abit confusing, especially on getting those weird messages and emails,( assumed in your Windows machine.)
Most likely you have Restored the iPod using the new Macbook pro, using the same name as that in your Windows machine, hence the duplicate name warning, as it is trying to sync Automatically.
If you are syncing your iPod to both the Mac and Windows, you must set it to Manually Manage Music, in the first machine that you setup iTunes with the iPod. Read thsi Apple Support Article
In iTunes, Preference, tick on Prevent devices syncing automatically
Hopefully your music are still in both your iTunes library,
Connect the iPod to the Mac
Restore it (just to fix any filesystem corruption by the Windows end)
Set it to Manually Manage Music
Sync your selected songs in your library.
Whern sync complete, Eject it
Connect it to your Windows PC.
Select the song in the library
Sync it.
It should work if your ipod Hardisk is not giving any problem.
Good luck!
