WRT54G erratic connection after firmware upgrade

I upgraded my firmware last week to v8.00.6 and now our internet connection is erratic for both wired and wireless connections. We are constantly having to reload each site because the first attempt fails to connect or only partially loads (http://192.168.1.1/ also fails to connect frequently).
I've reset and rebooted the router and tweaked the MTU settings.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks!

Tech support had me change the MTU to 1492. So far, so good. We'll see if it lasts.

T410i SSD user and master password problem after firmware upgrade

Hello.
I have problem with my Corsair Force 3 120GB SSD. After firmware upgrade of SSD my master and user HDD passwords are no longer valid. I'm stuck on BIOS screen and cannot unlock my SSD. After firmware upgrade procedure i got BSOD. Same happened during firmware upgrade on my previous SSD (INTEL X25-M 80GB) but after restart everything was OK. Please help!
Previous firmware version: 1.3
Current firmware version: 1.3.3
SSD connected to another computer shows RAW partition data, but firmware version is 1.3.3 - seems like update was successful.

My X301 Intel x18 got bricked also after a BIOS update then secure erase (was going to sell it). I plugged it to a USB kit and onto a desktop and it was recognised and able to format. But plugging it back to the lenovo it is still a brick. My lucky star there was warranty it was replaced by lenovo.
You may want to try it and extract the data, if it works. And hopefully you can still format it and made it work pluggin back to the lenovo.

PC-Suite sync fails after Firmware upgrade of E65

After firmware upgrade of E65 PC-Suite stops syncing Calendar & Contacts from outlook. No error messages, just "0 entries has been updated".
- PC-Suite updated to 7.0.9.2
- Outlook 2003
- XP Prof.
Any ideas?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The funny thing is - the notes are synced???? If I restore some old contacts they'll double up in outlook, so I think the problem is, that the sync app doesn't see the outlook contact & calendar folder.
Does somebody has an idea?

Crippled 192.168.1.1 page after firmware upgrade

hi,
i recently upgraded the firmware of my WRT160N V2 to 2.0.03.
but since then when i login i get a crippled page on 192.168.1.1 with not even a menu. so i cant even downgrade. is there something i can do?

It is good to know that the issue is resolved
After firmware upgrade it is always recommended to reset and reconfigure the router and I think that is why you were unable to see the menu on the setup page of your router.

T1000 wont boot after firmware upgrade if SCA6000 is connected

Hi guys,
as u may have guessed from the topic, I had a T1000 server with a sun SCA6000 crypto card mounted in the PCI slot. All worked fine until i tryed to upgrade the firmware on the server to the last available release (6.7.8 with patch 139435-06 ) . After the upgrade procedure, the system did not boot anymore. This is the console output with POST after the poweron command:

sc> Guessing an hardware compatibility problem, i tried to remove the SCA6000 board and the system booted again without an hassle.
Unluckily, I need the SCA6000, and I don't have any other server in which to mount it, so I tried to downgrade the firmware to the release I had before the upgrade:
firmware version: 6.6.7
patchid: 136928-05
but the system does not boot anymore with the SCA6000 connected. I even tried an older fw release just to be sure (fw 6.6.1, patch 136928-01), with the same result.
I did not find mention of any incompatibility in T1000 or SCA6000 documentation.
Any help would be REALLY appreciated
Many thanks in advance.

Hi,
This looks similar to the bug 6630313 :: http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-1-6630313-1
As described in the bug document, it is due to lower f/w rev. on the SCA6000 and solution is to upgrade the crypto card f/w to 1.1.0 /1.1.0 (bootstrap/operational )or later.
Another workaround would be to install system f/w 6.2.4 or 6.2.8 which works well with crypto card f/w 1.0.4/1.0.7.
Copying relevant part of the document for ref.
=======================
Work Around: The card is recognized by obp and prtdiag with firmware 6.2.4, so at this point customer is using firmware 6.2.4 as workaround.
Customer's crypto card is currently running 1.0.4/1.0.7 bootstrap/operational firmware. Customer can upgrade the card to newer firmware such as 1.1.0/1.1.0 by moving card to a system that boots successfully such as Ontario T2000. After such upgrade, install the card back into T1000 which should boot successfully with sysfw 6.4.0, 6.5.5 or 6.5.11 posted on Sunsolve.
Another workaround is customer can downgrade the T1000 sysfw to 6.2.8 so they can boot with the crypto card. After the T1000 is up and running with sysfw 6.2.8, customer can upgrade the crypto card fw to the latest 1.0 patch on the T1000 itself, then upgrade the T1000 sysfw to the latest
version posted on Sunsolve. This workaround does require customer to have access to an Ontario T2000 system.
Another workaround is customer can downgrade the T1000 sysfw to 6.2.8 so they can boot with the crypto card. After the T1000 is up and running with sysfw 6.2.8, customer can upgrade the crypto card fw to the latest 1.0 patch on the T1000 itself, then upgrade the T1000 sysfw to the latest
version posted on Sunsolve. This workaround does not require customer to have access to an Ontario T2000 system.

WRT54G ver.6 no WLAN after firmware upgrade

I just did a manual firmware upgrade for the router (WRT54Gv6 v1.02.2_fw)... when I went to rest it by holding down the rest button for 30 seconds, nothing appeared to happen. The light for the WLAN is now out. When I go to directly connect it to a computer, it says 'limited connectivity' local only. The Power, 1, and Internet lights still blink. I cannot access the web browser utility at 192.168.1.1 (nothing loads). Resetting still doesn't appear to do anything (lights don't flash off or change or anything)... Any ideas?

Open a DOS window and do "ping 192.168.1.1". If you get replies, there's still a chance. If it times out or any other error message then it can't be helped. If the router is less than 3 years old, call linksys for a replacement.
The box said windows xp or better... So I installed Linux!

WRT54G Ver 1.1 Firmware Upgrade

I was experiencing some connection problems that were causing me to cycle the power on my router a few times a week. I decided to upgrade the firmware to 4.21.1 hoping to resolve this issue. The firmware upgrade completed and all configuration settings were put back as I had before the upgrade.
Since the update, I cannot connect to the internet through my DSL when connecting through the router. I can connect to the internet when my computer is directly connected to the modem. I called Linksys and I was told to reset the router three times. Had no results.
Can anyone help me out with this? Or is there a place where I can download the old firmware that I originally had?
I have a WRT54G ver 1.1 and Bellsouth DSL
Thanks
(Edited post for guideline compliance. Thanks!)
Message Edited by JOHNDOE_06 on 11-20-2007 08:55 AM

--Update--
I solved the problem. The Bellsouth DSL modem is in bridge mode after it is either reset (hard button) or configured via the web utility.
WITHOUT connecting the router to the modem, configure the router to be PPPoE insted of DHCP. If the router is connected to the modem while still in DHCP mode, the modem will assume the router is a computer. This will kick the modem out of bridge mode.
So the steps to solve the problem are:
1) Disconnect ethernet between router and modem.
2) Reset modem / put in bridge mode.
3) Connect to router via web utility and configure PPPoE settings.
4) Connect router and DSL modem via ethernet cable.

HP 5524 Wireless does not work after firmware upgrade

HI,
I have just purchased an HP5524. After initial problems setting up the WPA key from the printer screen, I connected via USB, found the printer and swapped to wireless successfuly. I then installed the printer software on all my computers at home successfully over wireless.
The printer then needed a firmware upgrade to support eprint (?), which is successfully connected, downloaded the fireware, installed and went through the boot cycles successfully.
However, ever since wireless will not work. Before I return it to the retailer as "not fit for purpose" I thought I would ask the forum. The diagnostics downloaded a tool, which I went through, but this did not offer solutions that I had not already tried.
Thank you

Hi,
Thank you for posting you query,
In order to resolve the issue, please make sure the printer is placed closer to the router and uninstall the printer drivers already installed and then start the instalaltion and seelct teh connection type as wireless network. Then select use USB to configure wireless and when prompted conenct the USB cable and then select the network and enter the encryption key follow the onscreen instructions.
If the issue still persisits, please open the browser and in the address bar enter the IP address of the router and click on GO. This will take you to the router configuration page. On the router page, please click on Wireless Setup and please make sure SSID Broadcast is enabeld and the Wireless Mode is set to Mixed or 802.11 B/G/N and the Wireless Channel is set to 11 and click on Apply. Then try to connect the printer to the network by using the CD.
Say "Thanks" by clicking the Kudos Star in the post that helped you.

Content Copier wont restore after firmware upgrade

I upgraded my N95 8GB to the latest firmware this morning (30.0.018), took 2 complete backups using Contect Copier V4 prior to doing so, but after the upgrade every attempt to restore contacts, settings, etc has failed.
I've tried doing the recommended re-formatting procedure, followed by a restore, which did not help. I've tried restoring individual items only, instead of the whole lot, which also didn't work.
According to the log at the end of the restore, the restore completed successfully. Reality suggests otherwise though.
Could anyone please help?
Thanks,
Adriaan

Right, I've tried using OVI, which did NOT resolve the problem. In fact, it gave identical results to the content copier included with the nseries suite.
I've written to Nokia support who have replied as follows:
"In this instance, allow me to suggest a few workarounds in order to rectify the issue on hand.
First, I suggest that you delete any data not needed from your Nokia N95 8GB to free up the internal memory of your phone before restoring the backed up file. I would like to also suggest that you select the content files that you want to restore to the Nokia N95 8GB. Once you have connected your Nokia N95 8GB to the PC and launched the "Content Copier" application, please select the content file types that you want restored on the phone.
However, if you are still unable to restore the backed up file to your Nokia N95 8GB, there may be inherent issues with your Nokia N95 8GB that may prevent you doing so. In this case, please take your phone to your nearest Nokia Care Point for an assessment. The Nokia Care Point will assess if a repair is required and advise if this may be covered under warranty."
So it looks as if I'm going to have to take it in for repair...

N97 cannot use as modem after firmware upgrade

Hi, sorry if this is a repeat post but driven to distraction.
I use my N97 as a modem to connect to the internet from my laptop when I'm away from home. Since upgrading the firmware I cannot connect through 1 touch access or direct through dial up.
When attempting to connect through 1 touch I get as far as connecting device and then I get the message "Failed to connect device".
I have removed the modem through internet properties and reinstalled PC Suite (after using PC suite cleaner). I am running windows 7 but was connecting through 7 before the firmware upgrade.
Now I'm at a loss. Anyone got any ideas?

Saw another post here that said they make a completely new network with a different name and it worked. I decided to give it a try and it actually did work!!! Don't have any clue why but I don't really care since my network is running again.

BEFW11S4 constant disconnect after firmware upgrade

I was having trouble with my router losing connection every 2 hours or so . I have downloaded and installed the latest firmware and now it keeps disconnecting almost every 30 min. I have a static IP on my main pc and dhcp enabled for my xbox360. I have checked the cables if they were bad by swapping them but the problem was still there. Any help would be very much appreciated.

After a firmware upgrade, you must reset the router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch. If you saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.
Also, please list all the static LAN IP addresses that you are using on your network.
If you are not using the default DHCP server range of 192.168.1.100 thru 192.168.1.149 , then please state your DHCP server range.
Are you running any peer-to-peer (P2P) software? If so, this is a known cause for router slow downs and disconnections. Temporarily stop using the P2P software, then reboot router, and see if this corrects your problem.
Who is your ISP? Are you on a cable system? Some cable systems monitor the MAC address of the devices connected to them, and eventually boot off any MAC address they don't recognize. If you are on a cable modem, try cloning your MAC address (done in the router), and see if this corrects the problem.

Did scan to Diskstation stop connecting with firmware upgrade CLP1CN1516AR

I use my HP 8600 N911g almost daily to scan to LAN network attached storage, in this case a Diskstation. As of today I cannot scan to the Diskatation any more, it just will not connect. I have tried powering off in turn the printer, the router, the diskstation, letting each sit for 1 or more minutes before restarting, to no avail. I can print from my laptop to the printer, i can ping it via IP address and computername, I can open up its web interface and test the network locations - four are defined on the Diskstation, none of them connect. I created a new definition of an existing folder on the Diskstation and tested that, it also could not connect. From my laptop (Windows 7 SP1 64) I can access the Diskstation folders fine through both Windows Explorer and a command line interface. HP diagnostic tools on my laptop all run fine except for the scan test, which pulls in both sheets of paper from the ADF tray but the second sheet does not quite get ejected and the test locked up my printer; cancel and power button did nothing so I had to unplug it. I noticed yesterday that my printer said it was downloading an upgrade but eventually it aborted. Today I ran HP 8600 tools and it said I was up to date. It reported firmware version CLP1CN1516AR, which I understand was released 7/20/15. Could this upgrade be the problem? My printer is connected via ethernet to a LinkSys router that is bridged wirelessly to a Verizon FiOS ActionTec router to which the Diskstation is ethernet attached. This system has been in place for a year or so. My laptop, bridged router and printer are all within 3 feet of each other, the ActionTec is 30' away through two walls, my latop rates the ActionTec 4/5 bars in Windows icon or -59 dBm from Xirrus WiFi Inspector, from near to the printer. Vey frustrating. Any ideas, please?

I was called by HP Support, they reached me Friday just as I was about to leave to go on vacation for two weeks. They had read this thread and knew it was more than just me. They acknowledged a problem and assigned me a case number but closed my ticket, I need to call them when I am back on the 24th August so we can work to find a solution. They will open a new ticket then.
I hope HP will contact you and open a ticket for you and resolve the problem and issue a new firmware upgrade including the fix so that I can try it when I return, but that might be a stretch as presumably it goes through some QA testing before they release it. At least they should start working on it with your help.
Please keep us posted on any developments.
For a workaround I enabled scan to computer and email scan. I tried webscan interface and it scans but when finished it says click the save button to save but there is no save button, the two scan and cancel buttons remain unchanged from before initiating the scan. I tried both of those and they do what they say they do and don't save. I can see a preview mini image of the page and if I hover over it it presents a series of icons including a diskette but when I click that I can go through the motions of saving but the file is empty. The email scan is easiest to use, I send to myself and it takes a few minutes after scanning to appear in my inbox and sent folder. From there I can download to NAS or forward as an email. But compared to scan to network it is much slower and more labor intensive.
Good luck, both of you (pcni & greylisted).

HP8600 Plus won't send or receive fax after firmware upgrade

Hi All,
Suddenly my HP8600, refuses to send or receive fax. I get the message "Can'r send or receive fax" immediatley after power up. I have a strong feeling that the problem started after an automatic firmware upgrade to version OJP8600_N911a_R1435A . Unfortunately there does not seem to be a simple way to downgrade or is there? HP refuses to tell. I have checked the telphone line and the connection also tested with another fax machine. I tried resetting several times without any success. It is just out of warranty and works perfectly in all other respects.
Do someone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Bondra12

Hello @Bondra12 , welcome to the forums
I understand you now cannot send or receive a fax, and I am here to share my suggestions with you.
No, you cannot reverse a firmware upgrade from my knowledge. I would suggest however, troubleshooting the fax problem by trying out the steps from this guide: Cannot Send or Receive Faxes
If the problem does happen to continue, and I wish that it doesn't, to give us a call to see if you have any out of warranty printer options.
Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region. http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-phone-assist.html

Linksys SRW224G4 Fail After Firmware upgrade

Hello Everyone,
I am a newbie in this forum, so please excuse me If I may not make all things right.
I have a serious problem with my Linksys SRW224G4 managed switch.
After the one and only time that I have tried to update its Firmware, a couple of weeks ago,
although that the firmware upgrade ended with a success, When I tried to reboot the switch
the device went broken. Now it does not recieve an IP from the DHCP, hence I cannot see it in a list
with the IP scanner.
I have read and followed the manual, in order to be able to connect to the switch with Hyper Terminal
via an RS232 serial port cable and managed to reach up to the following screenshot.

It's not unrecoverable. It just looks like the existing image didn't take and the boot process wants you to load a new one over the serial link. You're using HyperTerminal, so you already have what's necessary to load the image.
As soon as the switch indicates that it's downloading code using XMODEM, select the file transfer option in the HyperTerminal menu and upload the "SRW2xxG4_FW_1.2.3.0.ros" file using XMODEM. It will take awhile, but should recover the switch.
Also, make absolutely sure that you're using an SRW224G4 revision 1.1. If you upload the firmware from the 1.0 firmware, this sort of thing will happen.
If you happen to have a revision 1.0 switch, you can still recover it via XMODEM, but use the "fesm-12216.ros" firmware instead.

Apple programs will not recognize Internet connection after Tiger upgrade

In January, I posted the question below. I wanted to update it, but this site has archived it and will not allow responses. In the hope that I may help someone else, I am repeating my question, now that I have the answer.
===============================================
ORIGINAL PROBLEM
Last week, I upgraded from 10.3.9 to Tiger. Ever since then, I have had trouble using Apple's programs that require internet usage: Safari, iTunes, Software Update, etc. All of these programs think I am not connected to the Internet. But I am; I can use Netscape, Internet Explorer, and other non-Apple programs on the web.
Furthermore, it's not consistent. Sometimes Safari will recognize the connection. I'll be using Safari, looking up websites, when suddenly it will quit connecting, giving me the message, "Cannot connect to the server," no matter what server it is, even apple.com (so I have to use Netscape to access my .Mac and this Support screen).
How can I resolve this?
==============================================
The problem was that my Earthlink Access software was setting a proxy on my connection. Netscape & Firefox worked because they ignore any proxies; the Apple programs (plus Shiira and Internet Explorer) didn't connect because they use the proxies.
Why did it sometimes work? Well, if I first used Safari to go to a secure website of my bank, somehow that opened up the connection and then I could continue to use the Internet and Internet based programs like iTunes and widgets. However, if I tried to use an Internet-based program before going to the secure site, then it wouldn't work.
After months of phone calls and e-mails and sending data packets and all such stuff with Apple Care, they finally stumbled upon this answer: Uncheck the proxy box. And that did it. At first I had to uncheck it every time I started up the computer, but now it stays unchecked and I can use my Apple programs with no trouble.
I just wanted to share this with you in case you also had trouble with Internet connections after upgrading to Tiger, because I did see several other people had this same trouble.
Movable flat-screen iMac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6) 1.25Ghz processor, 256 MB memory (DDR SDRAM)

For the record, could you state each Proxy box you ended up unchecking please? I'll attempt to submit a user tip with credit to you for finding this solution.
