WRT54G reset itself, internet slow now

One day I come back home and my internet is down. I find out after going to the 191 page that it reset its name back to linksys with no security or encryption. I had to change it back to WPA and change its name back. Now my internet is slow and none of the video sites (hulu, youtube, megavideo) stream, they buffer endlessly. Can somebody help? Much appreciated.

Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
Click on the Wireless tab.. Wireless Network mode should be mixed...Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbors network...Set the Wireless channel to 11-2.462GHz.. Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
For Wireless Security : -
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...Change the Wireless security mode to WEP.
Click on Advanced Wireless Settings..Change the Beacon Interval to 75,Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304,Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 and Click on Save Settings...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...

My iPhone reset itself and is now asking me to reconfigure it. I connected it to my computer to do it on iTunes, but it says that it can't... It went back to the configure screen as it was when I first got it but I've had this phone for about half a year. It was fully functional until about yesterday. Someone help.

WRT54G resetting itself at random times

Hi my router resets itself at random times it could be after 2 mins from the first reset,10 mins after, a few seconds after or could go the whole day without resetting itself. i have the latest version 7 firmware. i seem to notice that sometimes when someone uses our other computer that accesses the internet through it wirelessly that it happens more often but i cant really confirm. Need help on this please it really is causing alot of problems.

In this case i think you need to Re-Flash the firmware on your Router. Go to website linksysbycisco.com/downloads.........insert model no of your router in serach tab......select proper version of your router........download the firmware file......save that file on desktop.
Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device : -
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on a computer hard wired to the router...
In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1...Leave the username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful" After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
Now reset your router :
Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

Counter on iweb reset itself and is now not working anymore

My counter on iweb reset itself to 0 somehow, and now it's stuck on 0 on the bunch of the pages. What happened and how can I fix this? I tried removing the counter and putting it back, but that didn't work. Thanks!

Sometimes .Mac counters freeze up periodically. I saw two different posts recently about people not being able to use the search feature and another about missing comments, so maybe .Mac features are having some issues at the moment?
You might try "Publish ALL to .Mac" in the file menu, however this might cause them to reset anyway, I am not sure...

Itunes reset itself- authorized songs now unauth and says 5 of 5. why?

i bought music from itunes store w/ a gift card from xmas. my power cord got accidentally unplugged and my laptop died. when i rebooted, my itunes had reset. i had to reimport the whole library, and now songs that were once authorized on my machine are now coming up that all 5 of 5 are authorized- even tho this machine is one of the 5!
somehow, in the mix, the first album i bought seems to have dissapeared (i have over 150 gigs of music, not sure what happened. just recently noticed it was gone). When i go to 'purchased music' it only remembers what i've bought since i had itunes crap itself and reset.
what gives?
itunes music purchasing really *** sometimes.
powerbook g4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

When you reach the limit of 5 authorisations you have the option once a year to deauthorise them all in one go and start over:
About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93014
You can delete your "Purchased" playlist and create a new Smart Playlist and set as rule:
Kind - contains - protected
This playlist then will contain all your purchases and always will be up-to-date.
When you make a new purchase, your 'Purchased' playlist appears again, you can then add your previous purchased music to it.
Although the 'Purchased' playlist is a special one, it behaves like a normal playlist and you can in fact add and remove anything.

Can anyone please tell me why my ipad keeps resetting itself and is slow on Internet since last update

Can anyone please tell me why my ipad keeps resetting itself and is slow on Internet since last update

I have tried doing restore but nothing is working. It has only been happening since the last updates

My internet is now regularly going slow.

My internet is now regularly going slow. If I restart my hub it goes straight back to the fastest speed I can get.
I have a BT Home Hub 4 (Type A) | Software version 4.7.5.1.83.8.130.1.17 | Last updated 29/04/14.

in order for the forum members to help please can you post the adsl stats from your router you may need to 'show detail' to get all stats (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and navigate to adsl or if HH4/5 then go to troubleshooting then logs or WAN and you are looking for 2 line together when hub last connected to internet and they will show your connection speed and noise margin or if netgear enter 192.168.0.1). Then run btspeedtester (MAC users may have problems). when first test completes then run diagnostic test and post the results ( do not reset the router).
are you connected directly via a filter to the NTE5 master or test socket or to somewhere else? Is the master the only phone socket in your home?
Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal
Someone may then be able to offer help/assistance/suggestions to your problem

WRT54GS v6 Resetting Itself

One week old WRT54GS v6 worked fine until two days ago...
I noticed that the power light was flashing rapidly, then going steady for a while, and then flashing again. I tried to log into the router and I could not. Unplugged, and plugged directly into my cable modem (TimeWarner), and I still didn't get any connectivity.
Rebooted, and all worked fine w/o router in the loop. Downloaded newest firmware from Linksys, reset the router (which took 4 tries for it to finally reset itself), loaded up new firmware, and all was fine.
Worked for the rest of that night, and all through yesterday. Now the thing has reset itself again!?
It's doing the exact same thing, and before I go through the trouble of jacking with it all over again, anyone got any ideas on how to completely avoid this?

powr light blinking, try first to set static ip on the pc and forced the ethernet card that you have on the pc that is connected directly to the router.. and after that try to ping the 192.168.1.1 that is the ip address of the router.. if you got replies... you can revive tha router by upgrading the firmware of the router...
have a great day...

I downloaded an add-on to have firefox reset itself everytime I close/reopen. Now I want to remove it. It's not listed as an add-on. How can I get rid of it?

I downloaded an add-on to have firefox reset itself every time I close and reopen it. Now I want to remove it, but it's not showing as an add-on. How can I get rid of it?

You can check the target line in the Firefox desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties) to make sure that nothing is appended after the path to the Firefox program.
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
*Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

Bought 4th Gen 3TB TC - streaming TV over the internet is now so slow and now is constantly buffering. It seems the Airport Utility is always 'searching for new networks' - don't know if this is the problem. It's not the internet speed as checked that.

Bought 4th Gen 3TB TC - streaming TV over the internet is now so slow and now is constantly buffering. It seems the Airport Utility is always 'searching for new networks' - don't know if this is the problem. It's not the internet speed as checked that. I took my old router upstairs and was streaming TV via my ipad seamlessly - the same program via the TC was constantly buffering.
I just expected to be able to plug in the TC, so a simple set-up and experience wireless both upstairs and downstairs in my house. For some reason the range is low and speed veru disappointing.
I am far from being an IT expert but I would welcome advice about setting up this TC so we can enjoy the product as it was designed. Please HELP!

No silver bullet........but my suggestions may drive you in the right direction.
1. Unplug the power cable from the TC and wait 10-15 minutes before powering back up.   Seriously wait!
      Proceed to #2 if this dosen't help.
2. Unplug the power cable from the TC, ubplug the power cable from your Broadband Modem (assuming it's a cable modem), disconnect ethernet, and cable from modem.
2a. Wait 10-15 minutes then re-connect cable, ethernet, and power back to modem (your modem should power up unless you have a power switch) wait for all the modem lights to come on EXCEPT activity.
2b. Connect ethernet from modem to TC, and plug in the power cable to TC.
      Proceed to #3 if this dosen't help.
3. Reconfigure the TC.........Read here........http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3728
All really simple to do....if you need additional help let me (us) know.

IPod Randomly Reset Itself, Now Apps Are Not Working!(4th gen)

So, I was just browsing websites in Safari when this happened. I'm pretty sure I got linked to Tumblr and then my iPod decided to reset itself. After that, many apps refused to work, including Safari. Puffin Web Browser still worked, but it said that I was located in the United Arab Emirates, when I'm in the United States. Many YouTube videos refuse to work now also. I honestly have no idea what happened, and any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

my hd dvr box just randomly reset itself for no reason, and now it only displays the channel, wont let me bring up a guide, dvr or information about the program, athe channel up and down work, however it wont bring up information about the channels at al, any help on this would be appreciated, i reset the box and router and nothing happened..... ive had nothing but problems with these CROOKS at verizon, cannot wait to leave them
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Your box is probably taking new code. Leave it be for 15-20 min. Each time you reset it, you re-start the code download - just making it take that much longer.

WRT54G resetting to factury default by itself???

I have a WRT54G router Ver. 5 with firmware v. 1.02.5. This is the second time this has happened to me but the router reset itself to the factory defaults. I lost all my configurations. Does anyone know why this would be happening? I'm saving the configuration this time but it will be annoying to keep having to reconfigure the router.
Any ideas?

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 download and install (or re-install) the latest firmware for your router. 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.
If you still have trouble with the router forgetting its settings, then the router is malfunctioning, and it should be replaced. A router that forgets its settings is not secure.
