WRT54G, Firmware Version: 8.00.2, Stops routing after a day, Requires Power Cycle to Work Properly

WRT54G, Firmware Version: 8.00.2, Stops routing after a day, requires a quick 10-15 second power cyc... work properly for a day or so before powering down again….
I was using for years the BEFW11S4 Model without any issues before it finally failed. Due to loyalty, I went out over a month ago to purchase the current model. The problems did not pop-up until month of December… The issue had me thinking at first was the internet connection…
Any advice on dealing with this issue… Is it a Software and/or Hardware? It appears to be a software related condition…
For those other WRT54G users that appear to be having similar issues, regardless of the firmware, it would appear we all seem to be facing the same condition of resolving the issue after a power cycle…
Is there anyone out there that has already resolved this issue (e.g. Configuration changes)? Does anyone have input that Linksys is actively working on this issue?
Although I am sure we will find a solution, having to cycle the power is a bit disappointing since my older model had no such flaws with my current internet connection…
Thanks for the support out there….

If you have an Intel wireless card you can try this. I came across this link on the forum a days ago and it seems to help. The problem is that my problem was much more intermittent than some people are experiencing. It mainly seemed to appear when undocked the computer or if there was a power outage during the day. I would be interested to see if it works for you or if I'm just chasing my tail. I've seen other suggestions for changing the thresholds in the router which may be related.

WRT54G firmware failure leaving no access to router config

I have a WRT54G router. Running Vista SP2 64-bit on a laptop wired to router. When I first tried to upgrade the firmware I was connected wirelessly. (I know, please just think it but don't type it) During the upgrade the internet connection disconnected and the upgrade failed. I am connecting right now wirelessly using someones unsecure network. I attempted to upgrade the firmware to 8.00.7. Since then I am unable to access the router config using IP 192.168.1.1. I have read as many posts as I can handle. I have checked and that is the IP showing in Vista, (Network & Sharing, view status, properties) however I cannot ping that IP. It times out every time. I have done all the resets (10 seconds and up to 1 minute) on the router and power cycle etc. Nothing. I downloaded the firmware utility and I get an error message everytime that it is unable to get responses from the server. I have tried my password, which I think is gone due to all the resets, and am using admin as the password. I have disabled my firewall. I do have Network Magic and when I checked control internet access it says I am able to do so. Is there a way to disable Network Magic? Can that be the issue? When all this started I had my own internet connetion. I'm in the process of moving so I have disconnected my internet service. Since I'm only trying to connect to the router locally, do I really need to have a live internet connection? Please, HELP! I don't want to buy a new router. This one has been very reliable. If I do have to buy something new, can you recommend something just as reliable.
There have been 2 or 3 times where it looked as though I was going to be able to connect to config interface and the firsrt basic screen loads with minimal data and no clickable links to allow me to change screens. The "&" from one of the links that is supposed to appear but does not, is the only thing that appears in that area and if I click it, I either get a error from IE that it cannot connect, or, it takes me to the Ports screen with minimal data and I cannot progress from there. In the top right corner of the screen, it does show the firmware version is 8.00.7. ?????
P.S. Obviously, I'm not very computer savvy so excuse me if I'm missing the obvious.

Adjust the MTU size of the router. To determine the value of MTU that should be set on the router, follow the link below.

Router.attach(String, Class ? extends ServerResource ) not working properly

I am having getting router.attach() to work properly
Server server = new Server(Protocol.HTTP, 8182, new TestServerApplication());
server.start()
Here's the code that's in the client
ClientResource clientResource = new ClientResource(
"http://localhost:8182/contacts/123");
The following code does NOT work
router.attach("/contacts/123", ContactServerResource.class);
Exception in thread "main" Not Found (404) - Not Found
The following code does NOT work
router.attach("/contacts/123", ContactServerResource.class, Router.MODE_BEST_MATCH);
Exception in thread "main" Not Found (404) - Not Found
* using attachDefault results in the call being handled properly
// success!
router.attachDefault(ContactServerResource.class);
I also tried something different rather than using a Server.
Component component = new Component();
// Add a new HTTP server listening on port 8182.
component.getServers().add(Protocol.HTTP, 8182);
// Attach the sample application.
component.getDefaultHost().attach("/contacts/123",
new TestServerApplication());
component.start();
In this case router.attach("/contacts/123", ContactServerResource.class) is still called and it still fails to work. You have to attachDefault() to get it to work
I can't think of anything else to try. Anybody have any ideas? thank you

Try running your query directly into the database and make sure it actually returns a row. This may get you started with the debugging process. Are you doing any stacktraces or System.out.println(theException); in your catch blocks? This may also help if there is an excpetion. You may need to consult your server logs (unless you have some sort of console running) in order to see the results of any prints.

WRT54G Firmware version problem

hello people i gotta problem and if you can please help me...
I have a WRT54G wireless router v7.2.00 (defoult firmware)
in here last firmware is 8.2
http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/support/routers/WRT54G/download
i download this file, but can't install...
then i find this...
http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-eu/support/routers/WRT54G/download
in here last version is v7.2
**bleep**?!
now can you tall me, can i upgrade v7.2.01 to v8 or v8.2?

From what I’ve remembered, I don’t think there’s a v7.2 for WRT54G. I do know though that WRT54GS has v7.2. If I were you, check the FCC ID number because you will be able to determine the correct version there. Loading a firmware from a different version might damage the router so it is not advisable to proceed with that firmware.

Firefox setup (version 8, 9, 10) stops/disappears after extracting files

XP 64 English
1. None of my browswer worked properly with different issues: IE did not started at all, Firefox 10 crashed after error window (Microsoft), et.c
2. Firefox cannot be reinstalled, extracted file than disappeared.
3. Removed all internet browsers, made virus and malvare scans reseted winsock, IP and network.
4. Could reinstal IE8 and Safari and they seem to work.
5. With Firefox I have the same problem: setup (8, 9 and 10) extracts files then disappears.

There is no "unblock" in the Properties box (see attached). I have to add that it happens with every "setup.exe" not only with Firefox.
Some could be launched by renaming them.

Help! I have an iMac 24" OSX version 10.6.8 my iphoto is having problems. It will not open properly. All I get is the little wheel going around and around. My iphoto is iphoto'11 version 9.2.3(629.52) What should I do to make it work properly?

Help! I have an iMac 24" OSX version 10.6.8. My iphoto is having problems. It will not open properly. All I get is the little wheel going around and around. My iphoto is: iphoto'11 version 9.2.3(629.52). What do I need to do to remedy this? I recently installed InstallMac. I don't want this on my computer. I don't know how to get it off. I'm afraid that is what scrogged my iphoto. Can anyone tell me how to correct this situation?

Re: iPhoto:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Acrobat XI Pro: Licensed / activated version in trial mode and expire after 30 days

First, when viewing a PDF file, my licensed Acrobat XI Pro (v11.0.10) closes the PDF and shows accept license agreement window.
I accepted the license-agreement.
Then a window showed up telling me to log-in into my Adobe-account, clicked on log-in.
Log-in window did not appear though.
I re-launched Acrobat and it is now telling me that it is a trial version for 30 days.
Great!
"Help->Deactivate" is greyed out.
I may go into my Adobe account, Acrobat XI Pro is listed there, together with the key.
Now what?

Later:
with thanks to the solution from Vikrantt Singh
on: Re: Acrobat XI Pro Repeatedly Asking to License Despite Registering/Activating
minor exception - in my case the folders
\Adobe PCD
\SLCache
were located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe
so:
1) Delete the Adobe PCD-folder under C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe PCD
2) Delete the SL Cache-folder under C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\SLCache
3) Delete the Sl Store-folder under C:\ProgramData\Adobe
4) Launch Acrobat again and activate
Now things are fine again.

Version 6 wants to instal on my computer i've tried but wont work properly had to uninstal I have windows xp

FLASHES ON SCREEN I SHOULD UPDATE TO VERSION 6 BUT SAID ADD ONS WERE NOT AVAILABLE WAS VERY SLOW COULDN'T USE IT LIKE IT WAS SO I HAD TO DO SYSTEM RESTORE TO GET THINGS BACK AND UNINSTALL FIREFOX 6, PREFER THE ONE I AM WITH NOW WHICH IS 5 I THINK

I ended up finding a solution.....went to Firefox tab on top left of browser screen. Went to help, restart with add-ons disabled. This takes you to the Firefox Safe Mode text box. Select "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults. This seems to have worked, as there is no longer an AVG Secure Search directed screen. Also, I installed Avast. Have had it on my tower PC and another laptop for 2 years with no issue. Screw AVG!!!

Do I need to keep old versions of CS on my PC in order to have the most recent work properly?

I recently started a new position and plesently found my work station already set up with Creative Suite 5.5, but then saw CS 4 and CS 3 as well. When I asked IT why they were all there, the response was that upgrades build off of one another. If we were to uninstall 4 and 3, 5.5 wouldn't work.
Now, this isn't my first time around the block... I've never done this in the past in any other position. In fact, I remember how much work it was to install the new software and then uninstall the old, frequently running into problems along the way.
Is my new IT department right? Or can I uninstall the older versions in the hopes that my computer works faster/better?
Thanks!

Hi HeatherSenger,
It is not necessary to have old version of Creative suite already installed in your machine. You can uninstall the old version form your computer and there will not be any problem.
When you buy an upgrade of any creative suite let say for example if you buy an upgrade for CS6 from CS5.
You start the installation of CS6 and it will ask for the serial number --- the moment you enter the serial number for the CS6 upgrade it will ask for the serial number for the previous qualifying version which could be CS5 or any eligible old version
After entering both the keys it will continue the installation.
So you just need to have the serial numbers of the both versions at the time of installation.
Thanks

N93 no new firmware version available

Hi,
I'm a brand new discussion board user.
I' bought my N93 thre months ago. My phone ID is 0531236 and my firmware version is 11.0.034.
I've bought also a bluetooth headset BH-900 but it does not work. I've found in this board that there is a new firmware version (20.0...)
that seems to fix the problem. If I try to update my phone via PC application I receive "no new firmware available" as answer.
Any problems with my phone and firmware version?
Thanx in advance for any replies

You can prevent freezing router by enable Security->Firewall->Filter Multicast option in your router setup.

HT3669 After update the printer HP Deskjet F300 Series stopped working properly

I would like to notify you that i use drivers for HP Deskjet F300 Series Version 1.0.1 and after this update the version upgraded in version 2.0.0 and the printer stopped working properly. I removed from library all folder of HP drivers and then i re-install old version from .dmg file from this official link of HP and now it works properly again.

Hi ds5710,
I understand you have a Deskjet F300 series printer that is currently telling you it's offline and won't print. I will certainly do my best to assist you in resolving this issue.
If you're using Windows, I would suggest you start by downloading and running the HP Print and Scan Doctor as it should be able to rectify whatever is causing your printer to show as offline.
If that doesn't resolve your issue, or you're using a Mac, please get back to me with which version of Windows or Mac that you're using and I will certainly see what else we can do!
Please click “Accept as Solution ” if you feel my post resolved your issue, as it will help others find the solution faster
Click the “Kudos Thumbs Up" on the right to say “Thanks” for helping!

Acrobat stops showing after 5 seconds.

Our version of arobat reader stops showing after 5 seconds when we open an element on our company website.
Is it the software that is the problem or the element on the website.
Below is our website: If you go to it and click on the link "100% recycled", a pdf opens up. On our computer it stops working after 5 seconds or so.
http://www.ecorubbishclearance.co.uk/Pages/Mattress_Disposal_London.aspx
Can anyone tell me if the same thing happened to you when you clicked it.
Thanks in advance,

I have no problem viewing that online PDF for as long as I like.
What is your operating system? Browser? Reader version?

I have a WRT54G Wireless modem with firmware version 1.02...

I have a WRT54G Wireless modem with firmware version 1.02.1 Mar 4 2003. i down loaded the latest firmware for the modem but i can't install it. I get the erroe message"incorrect image file".
What is wrong?

Which version of the WRT54G do you have? If it is not clearly stated on the router, go to Wikipedia.org and search for WRT54G, then you can use your router's serial number to determine which version of the router you own.
The version of the router is important. Each version has a different set of hardware in it, so each version takes a different firmware.
You can only load the firmware that corresponds to your model and version.
