WRT54G ports show no connection when connected to laptop

I was trying to setup my father-in-law's dell inspiron 510m on XP to the wrt54g. he used to an ethernet cable plugged directly into the modem. When i plug in the computer to one of the ethernet ports (1-4) notne of them lights up and the computer displays network cable is unplugged. ive tried plugging the router from port 1 to port 2 and they both light up and the computer can connect to the internet directly plugged into the modem but for some reason cannot communiacate with the router. everything else works just fine but i cannot get these two to talk. he has a v3 router if that makes any difference. i sat on the phone with customer service and they said that my router just went bad and to send in for a new one, but i think there is something else that can be fixed. any ideas?

This maybe caused by incompatibility issue on your network card on the pc and the router. Both just cant synchronized with each other.
I suggest you do this first:
go to www.linksys.com/kb and look for answer id 945, this will force the card of the computer to run it on 10mbps initially while you configure this router.

What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue? Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?

Ipad 3rd gen shows blank screen when connecting to projector via HDMI AV adapter. I have an ipad 2 that works perfectly. Projector is a Dukane ImagePro 8106HA. Only difference I see is that the ipad 3 owner has not updated to IOS 6. Any thoughts?

Ports Crystal Reports uses when Connecting to a Universe as a Data Source

I have a couple of Crystal Reports that use universes as a data source. On my Windows 7 machine I am getting an error message that "Logon Failed", rather opening and running the same report on my Windows XP machine, I get the results from the universe as expected. I have tried multiple universes that report against different databases (Oracle, SQL Server, Sybase, etc) and I am getting the same vague error message on my Windows 7 machine with Crystal Reports 12.3.0.601.
Can someone please tell me what ports are being used within Crystal Reports (other than 6400) when connecting to the CMS and pulling back data from a universe? The odd thing, is that I can connect to the CMS, see the universes that I have permissions too and even see the objects within the universe, but I cannot view the results. This is a pretty high priority for us, so I would appreciate any feedback possible.

Hello,
"Seems contrary to the concept of isolating users (in this case designers) from connection details. I can only be hopeful that report users will not also have to have connections configured on the local workstations to view these reports ;-)"
As long as you use/set Saved Data with the reports then they don't need the client installed. If they hit Refresh to update the data then obviously they need to be able to connect to the data source, how else are they going to get it.
Think about it, you sit down to write a report off of a database you don't have access to? How are you going to create a report....
If you planning on sending out reports for viewing only then export them to PDF or some other type, then DB connections are not an issue, the PDF's are for viewing only.
Another concept is DB Security. Using NT Authentication or DB Authentication unless that user hitting the refresh button has access to the DB it won't prompt for log on info or if they don't provide the correct log on info they can't see new data.
It's all about security, CR does not save the Password in the RPT file, if we did anyone could get it and hack your database.

Issue with Adobe Drive showing 2 drives when connecting to a HA environment

I am using Adobe Drive 5 and when connecting to a HA application it shows 2 drives. Even if I use the direct IP of one node 2 drives show up
Any idea how to stop a second drive shown up?

I have "SMB/CIFS" not "SMB/CIS" - does that make a difference? (I'm in uncharted waters here...)
When I go to Configure it, the default Workgroup is "Windows" in what looks like a drop down menu, but there is nothing else in the menu.
The WINS Server: is blank and I can't type anything in it.
I changed "Windows" (because I can type there) to the Workgroup of my school, and tried again with the same results.
The "Apply" and "Revert" buttons are grayed out. Only a few of the options are checked: AppleTalk, Bonjour (grayed), LDApv3, SLP, and SMB/CIFS
Authentication is set to Custom Path (/Netinfo/DefaultLocalNode)
Contacts set to "Automatic" (same path as above)
I'm trying to be a thorough as I can in my description, because I'm unfamiliar with this utility and want to make sure I'm not missing anything.
Thanks.

Nokia X6 Always show MTP Device when connect PC

Why my Nokia X6 always show Found New Hardware "MTP Device" when connect to PC Select USB mode: PC Suite?
My PC Windows XP SP3
Is there any way to solve this problem?
Thank!

Same problem here. This is how you can make it go away.
Go to Control Panel > Taskbar & Start Menu.
Then on the Taskbar menu hit "Customize" That will show you the current items in your taskbar. You should have one that says "<no title>" - that is the MTP Device. Click on the "Hide when inactive" and change it to "Always hide".
Still, I don't think it addresses the issue directly so if anyone can tell us more about this problem it would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Try restoring the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If your iPod is with in the one-year warrranty, not abused and defective Apple will replace it.

No internet connectivity when connected to BTOpenz...

Having moved to BT and paid the extra £10 a month over O2, to allow my mobile device to access BTOpenzone and BTFON, I am finding it extremely difficult to get my money's worth.
The BTFon app has only twice managed to automatically connect to and gain internet access. Another couple of times, when mucking about with Safari (it's an iPod Touch) I've managed to stumble across the BTOpenzone landing page and manually log on.
But most of the time, while the BTOpenzone and BTFON networks can be joined in Settings (and shows a tick) then Safari says that I am not connected to the INternet, and BTFon will come up with either "this wifi hotspot is temporarily unavailable" or "not connected to the internet".
This is now even the case when I am at home and connected to my on HH3, the BTFON and BTOpenzone connections will just not allow internet access or come up with the Openzone landing page.
Now in the case of my own HH3, checking the IP address I note that it starts with 10 as in 10.227.71.139, when connected to BTFon or Openzone (it's 192 when directly connected to the SSID) and the router is 10.227.71.137. There are just the two DNS entries 192.168.22.22 and 192.168.22.23.
The sticky above says that the IP shouldn't start with 10, and that the HH3 needs reset.
Now, the HH3 is still just a few weeks old, and I am not inclined to reset it as I can access the normal SSID network anyway. But it occurs to me that if it requires a reset so soon, then most folks' HHs will also be in this position. It also means not only that no-one can use my own BTFON and explains why most others are unavailable to me when I am roaming.
If that is the case I am wondering why I bothered paying the extra to move to BT and has huge implications for the functionality of BTFON in general.
If the above is all correct then I think that BT should sort out the firmware and roll out to all HHs automatically that are opted in to (or not opted out of) BTFON. the firmware should identify what it is that makes the homehub issue IP adresses starting 10 instead of 192, and fix that without a reboot.
This will then allow devices to connect, without requiring users to try and find the one HH in the area that does not require rebooting.
Of course I will be delighted to be proven wrong and that there is some simple solution to the above!

Although I'm not an i'anything' user, did you do this when you first used the app?
taken from http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/btfon-wi-fi/id384404559?mt=8
Here's how to use it for the first time:
1. Download and open the app and then click on ‘I’m a BT broadband customer’
2. Type in your @btinternet.com email address and password then read and accept the T’s and C’s. This will automatically opt you in to BT Fon
3. When you’re in a BT Fon or BT Openzone hotspot for the first time, click on Settings on your iPhone home screen, then Wi-Fi and select BT Fon or BT Openzone (you won’t need to do this again but must do this to use the app for the first time)
4. Open the BT Fon Wi-Fi app and you will automatically be logged in
5. If you want to connect to your Home Hub rather than BT Fon, you simply click settings on your iPhone menu screen, select Wi-Fi, and then choose your Home Hub
