WRT54G Keeps Resetting - Help!

Just bought router a couple of weeks ago, and it keeps resetting.  First I lose internet connectivity, and when I bring up the Linksys Advisor, it goes into the initial setup like I've never done it.  It worked fine up until a few days ago.  Any idea what is going on?

don't really rely on the easy link advisor sometimes it's not accurate. do you frequently have power outtage in the area?sometimes it affects the settings of the router.also try to configure the router properly if not familiar on how to do that try to get in touch with the phone support

    Hi Darin35;
    Since you have a PowerMac G4, why did you post in the G5 forum?
    You might get more knowledgeable answers if you repost over in the G4 forum.

  • WRT54G keeps resetting the SSID name and wireless security

    Over the past few weeks, my WRT54G (which I've had for about 18 months) has been resetting itself by changing the SSID name back to the default "linksys" and losing wireless security. I have updated the firmware.
    Any ideas of what is going on here?
    Thanks.

    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.
    Routers seem to be sensitive to electrical surges and noise. This can cause them to loose their settings. You should keep your router plugged into a high quality surge suppressor with EMI/RFI filtering, such as the Belkin SurgeMaster Gold Series. A surge suppressor alone is not enough because surge suppression does not start until the voltage exceeds 330 volts. Alternatively, most UPS devices have both surge suppression and EMI/RFI filtering.
    If this does not prevent your router from "forgetting" its settings, then the router is malfunctioning, and it should be replaced. A router that forgets its settings is not secure.

  • K7n2g keeps reseting help

    Read that this board has cpu thermal protection. But at what temp? cpu 57C case37C xp2200.works fine for a while then poof!! It restarts like nothing wrong.I,m totaly updated from bios to xp home

  • Bridge preferences keep resetting.  Please help!

    This is SO frustrating!  I just upgraded to CS4 and my Bridge preferences keep resetting back to factory defaults.  I have reinstalled the entire CS4 and I have also restarted Bridge holding down the option key and still nothing.  I have also repaired disk permissions upon suggestion from Adobe Support.
    Does anyone have any tips on what to do?
    Furthermore, also, in Camera Raw my settings don't take either.  In previous versions of ACR all I had to do was click the option once and everything in ACR would come up the same in subsequent openings.  For example...ACR pops up in a very small window, in CS3 you could click the "full screen" option and each time you opened ACR, it would open full screen.  Now every time I open ACR, it opens small and I have to click the screen larger.  Very tedious.  Same with changing the colorspace under each image...previously I had set it to sRGB and it would stick, however, now with CS4 every time I change it, it reverts back to Adobe 1998. Ugh.
    Can anyone help?  I have been on the phone for hours with Adobe support and everyone seems to lead me on a wild goose chase with no results.
    I am running Mac OS 10.5.8.
    Thank you!

    The easiest way I can think of is to use your original install disk for
    OSX10.5 and choose the option to archive and install a new system.
    The Archive and Install option makes a copy of your old library and creates
    a fresh new one leaving all the other existing files intact.
    However, to be sure first make a back up of all your important files from
    your user account (including the Document, pictures, music movie etc
    folders) if you not already have done so (something you should have... )
    First of all use the Adobe uninstaller to uninstall you CS4 copy (it should
    be in the utilities folder)
    Then run the Archive and Install option from the install disk. You should
    start up from this disk otherwise it won't work. When finished restart OSX
    and use software update to get the latest version of OSX 10.5
    Reinstall CS4 and try again.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks for your help.

  • I book G4 Keeps resetting itself. HELP!

    HI!
    My IBook G4 keeps resetting it self. I have not changed a folder name or anything. When i turn the computer off and turn it back on, it is all back to the "default" settings. I have to start each application new. Like mail. in the last hour I started "mail" 4 times and had to put all my information back in. I-tunes has to restart, but my music is still there, after it gets imported.\
    Now my keychain is going crazy, too. My Safari lost my bookmarks, everything.
    I can't afford to loos everything, so please help me. I looked up in the help topics, but all my folders seem to be Ok.
    Thanks.

    ...if the hard drive was erased the install discs are the only way to resolve this that I am aware of.
    As an alternative, you can buy a copy of the operating system and the iLife product, which is most of what was on the original install disks that didn't come with your system. One source for unopened Apple software is hardcoremac.com.
    However, it sounds like you can log onto the system, yes?  On the menu bar, towards the apple on the left, it says File.  If you click on that can you also click on "new finder window"? If yes, what does it show you?

  • Help! My centro keeps resetting.​.

    My verizon centro keeps resetting when I access the webpro function and I am using the online feature. Any suggestions?
    Post relates to:

    WebPro was for sale at one time from the Palm Store, and was included with the Zire71/72 also...
    I'm guessing the OP may just be guessing at the name of the program.  Hard to believe this old web browser got installed on his Centro, unless a major upgrade mistake was made by the OP...

    then hold down the Home button until the app quits.
    - Restore from backup

  • IPad - after software upgrade the APN settings keep resetting by themselves. There are multilple accounts of this happening. Please help.

    Hello,
    I have a problem with an iPad 2. After the software upgrade to iOS 5 the APN settings keep resetting all by themselves (I set the APN, I get out of the setting by pressing the back arrow on the top left of the screen, I get back in there and the APN setting is gone). Of course, the internet connection si not working. I've seen other people having the same problem on their iPads after the upgrade.
    Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be?

    I too am experiencing this issue - on an iPad 2 using a UK BT DATA plan SIM. This is not an issue with the SIM, as I have tried it in a different iPad and it works without any problems.
    I have also tried all recent iOS updates, hoping it would overcome the issue - but no joy.
    Can we have some assistance from the fine people at Apple please???
    It is getting rather infuriating

  • Ipod keeps resetting at language selection HELP!

    My ipod keeps resetting at the language selection and i can't do anythink except recharge it. How can i get it to work again.

    Welcome to the discussions Patrick,
    It may or may not have said it on there but there is one number for apple support. It is 1-800-APL-CARE. You dial this number during buisness hours and follow the steps given. Since you just bought this (a video ipod right?) you have one year or 90 days of phone and tech support. As for turning the ipod on and off it is the play/pause button and the center button. Center to turn it on and play/pause to turn it off. It is confusing at first yes, but you should get the hang of it. The applecare representatives will/should take care of you.

  • HT1918 I keep resetting my password and it continues to say incorrect password or apple ID, I cannot update apps or purchase apps, please help

    I keep resetting my password and it continues to say incorrect each time I try to update or purchase apps

    I have had that problem. I had an apple I'd as we'll not associated with my email. Once I put it on there I had to buy the apps again. Very upset that I have to pay for app om my iPhone and then turn around and buy the same app for iPad or IPod. This issue with it not accepting my password no matter how many times I change it is very frustrating. Took my password to ask the question but it won't to buy an app! Maybe I will just save my money.

  • Help! Charge Keeps Resetting to Home Screen every minute or so.

    Hi. My Samsung Charge Keeps Resetting every minute or so to the Home Screen. It shuts off anything I'm doing and goes black. It then starts up at the home screen and says "media scanner running" at the top of screen. What I was doing before problem occurred...I was listening to music player yesterday for several hours until battery went dead. I plugged the phone into my laptop to charge the battery and the problem started.

    I don't really know what to do but your battery probably is not charged very well yet.  The USB port on a PC is NOT a very powerful charger.
    Try this.  Plug your phone into the 1 AMP charger that came with it.  After the battery is charged past the 60% mark leave the charger plugged into your phone and then hold the on/off button (top right outside edge of the phone) until you see Power Off.  Touch power off.  After a minute restart the phone.
    If that does not fix your phone do the same thing at one more or maybe two more times.
    I hope someone else may have a better idea.
