WRT54G v8 works with 2 iphones, 1 xp laptop, not vista laptop

Got a WRT54G v8, upgraded firmware to v8_8.00.5.002, power cycled everything. Tried WEP & WPA-personal in wireless security setting. Wireless connection showed up as "Connected", 4 bars. Sometimes it showed Connected with Limited Connectivity. It used to be "Connected to security-enabled network" with my old wireless router. My 2 iphones and another XP laptop both work, all able to access wirelessly without any problem. Wired connection to my vista laptop also works. only wireless to the vista laptop not working. I setup everything (via 192.168.1.1) on my Vista HP laptop. Did I need to update anything on my vista laptop? please HELP.

okay. I just had a chat on linksys online-chat for an hour. The technician walked me through, and finally fixed the problem. The key was not to let Vista detect IP automatically on the wireless connection. 1) go to 192.168.1.1, go to Status tab, copy down the DNS 1/2/3 addresses 2) Start->Ctrl Panel->Network Sharing->Manage network connection a) right click Wireless network connection->properties b) select TCP IP V4, properties c) specify IP addr manually IP addr: 192.168.1.20 subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 default gateway: 192.168.1.1 d) specify DNS server address manually type in 2 DNS addresses you copied earlier hit OK 3) restart computer 4) reconnect to wireless network.

Time capsule only seems to work with my macbook pro, not vista. (wifi)

So I received my TC today and set it up. Everything is working perfectly except the new wifi network I created only works with my macbook pro, not my other laptop that has windows vista installed on it. It only works with vista when I take off the password from the network. When it's on, it says something about the settings being invalid for that particular computer. I think it has something to do with the WPA2 encryption.
Any suggestions?

Nobody?

AirTunes works with iPhone 4, but not iTunes 10.1.1 on MBP

I cannot figure out why AirTunes will not work with my MacBook Pro. I know it is not the AirPort Express that is the problem, since I can play my iPhone through it. I can select the AirPort Express and the attached speakers in iTunes, but while it looks like it is playing, no sound comes out.
I am using iTunes 10.1.1 on a MacBook Pro with OS X 10.6.6 and an AirPort Express with 7.5.2 version firmware. Enable AirTunes is selected, which makes sense since the iPhone can find it.
I am not sure if these logs actually explain anything, but I've included them just in cases:
The log on the AirPort Express when I try to play music from my iTunes says: Jan 09 22:23:01 Severity:4 AirTunes stream from fe80::21c:b3ff:fec0:6e8b%bridge0 started.
The log on the AirPort Express when I play music from my iPhone says: Jan 09 22:25:23 Severity:4 AirTunes stream from 10.0.1.7 started.
I would greatly appreciate any help that you guys may have. I have been trying to figure this out for weeks.

if you set a alarm as a single day each night it will ring at the right time just not if you have a reoccurring alarm

My WRT54G only working with ethernet to computer not wirelessly

I have a WRT54G wireless broadband router.
I used to have an ethernet cord from my computer directly to the modem and my sister went online using the wireless signal. I recently changed modems, my sister used the wireless signal for about two weeks. But later when I hooked up my ethernet corded into the back of the router (at first slot 1). My sister could never find the wireless signal. I tried restarting every thing. Not hooking up my ethernet cord, and just trying to get the wireless signal. Didn't work. Help please.

I assume you are using windows XP operating System... So follow this steps ....
Uninstall the drivers for the Adapter from start >> All programs ....
>> Insert the Setup CD in the cd drive>> Click on Exit when the
Linksys welcome screen appears>>Click on start. Unplug & replug adapter ...>> There should be a "" Found New Hardware Wizard ""
that pops up on your screen>> Click on “Install software
automatically “, and then click on next. Once the installation is
complete>> Right click on the wireless network connection icon in the
system tray besides the clock >>Click on view wireless networks and
then connect to your network name.

Appletv remote app and airplay not working with iphone 4S

I have the latest appleTV. I have the remote app loaded onto my ipad3 and iphone 4S. The app is not working with iphone 4S, nor do I get the airplay icon, hence I can't mirrior my phone on appleTV. It used to work. I have deleted and reloaded the app, and still nothing. It worked fined until a month ago or so. I have enabled home sharing.
The app and airlplay are working just fine with the ipad3. I have the ipad and appleTV hooked up to my router using 5Ghz, and the iphone only connects to the 2Ghz network on the same router. I don't think this is the issue, because it worked before.
Also, when I click on the remote app on the iphone, to add an itunes library, a code pops up on the phone, which I enter into itunes on my Win7 PC. Nothing seems happed on the computer when I enter the code. Could this have anything to do with recent appleTV or itunes updates? Any possible solutions?

It seems like I am having the same problem.
I have the latest AppleTV 1080, imac 27", ipad, ipad2, 2 iphone 4, all with the latest iOS. After I have the AppleTV connected, a few problems showed up:
(1) ipad plus iphones cannot airplay photo to AppleTV. After the play button and the grey screen displayed "the playing msg on AppleTV", nothing happened. it is the same for ipad/iphone.
(2) iMac not Airplay to AppleTV
(3) Airplay Mirroring not working
The following are done:
- Home sharing enabled
- To test the devices are connected. I set a passowrd for Airplay and the ipad/iphone both requested for it so they are network and devices are ok

"This accessory is not made to work with iPhone"

I have a first generation iphone. It recently started showing a message that reads:
This accessory is not made to work with iPhone
Would you like to turn on Airplane Mode to reduce audio interference?
You will not be able to make call during this mode
YES NO
There is no accessory in the phone. Any thoughts on how to stop this behavior?
I tried reloading the OS and it didn't help.

I was having the same problem and it was draining my battery! After reading a couple of threads I was resigned to take my 1st gen iphone to the genius bar to see if they could do something. Before going to the bar I took off my pics, videos, movies, podcasts, and some applications in preparation for my visit. That night the problem stopped. This had been happening for about 3-4 weeks so I could replicate at will. After removing things from the phone when I tried to replicate the problem it would not happen. So I then started to re-sync things one at a time. After re-syncing everything but the applications I still could not replicate the problem. My feeling is that one of the applications, or combinations of, was causing the issue. I have not re-synced all the applications at this time because I am happy to have my phone back. Hope this helps.

Iphone will not charge via usb-to-computer nor via brick; I've tested with two different cables. Just before this problem arose, I got messages similar to "This accessory is not made to work with iPhone."

Most of my concern is in the subject line. I probably should've saved some content to include here. Allow me to elaborate:
While traveling with the tiny brick, I got a message on my 3GS phone that "This accessory is not made to work with iPhone”; however, the charger was working fine with another phone and with an iPad.
I tested alternatives by removing and re-inserting the cable (obviously, as I tested other devices), changing wall receptacles, shutting the phone off (all the way), all to no avail.
When I got home, I plugged a different cable--one that was connected to my iMac rather than the brick--into the my 3GS; it still didn't charge.
So, I'm hypothesizing that perhaps some debris (from a pocket?) got into the charging receptacle of the 3GS and is disrupting the connection. Perhaps there are other hypotheses.
I am reluctant to do a reset, as (a) the problem doesn't appear to be a software issue (the phone and software are all working, though the charge is declining) and (b) I don't want to lose the contents before I can sync it (now that I'm home, again).
I'd welcome suggestions. Meanwhile, I suppose I shall e-mail photos and notes from the phone to myself before I lose the remaining charge.

Try to clean the 30-pin receiver slot either by blowing air into it or using a microfiber cloth. If the problem persists, based on what you've already said, I'd say the problem is most likely hardware, and would need to be replaced or repaired. I hope your iPhone is still under the 1-Year Manufacturer Warranty, or if applicaable extended warranty. You can check by calling AppleCare National iPhone Technical Support at 1 (800) 694-7466.

Please Help "This accessory is not made to work with iPhone" iPod??

Hiya i wondered if someone here can help me please.
Today i went to play my ipod feature on my iPhone and it started playing on the iPhone speakers which i wanted, Then all of a sudden it stoped i checked it out and had an error message saying the following.
"This accessory is not made to work with iPhone
Do you wish to switch to aeroplane mode
YES/NO"
There is no accessory connected to the phone and also it has not been in contact with water which i heard sometimes triggers this error.
When i press the NO option the volume cuts out and the volume slider disapears on the ipod and also the volume buttons dont work.
I dont really want to factory restore it but if thats my only option then i will do it. Also i have only had the phone for less than 20 days.
Any Help/Advice is really apprieciated.

Check your iPhone's dock connector port for any dirt, lint, or foreign material, and it doesn't take much.
If clear, the standard troubleshooting steps in order are power your iPhone off and on, an iPhone reset - which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release - ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so, restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup, and restoring as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup.
If no change after any of these steps in order, you can call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

Bought iPhone 6 yesterday. Also bought dock works with iPhone 5/5s. And cord connecting iPhone 6 to USB port on car stereo. No sound comes out of dock or car stereo. In store today, iPhone 5 running ios 8 worked on dock, not iPhone 6. When Apple fix?

I bought an iPhone 6 yesterday. I also bought a stereo dock that works with iPhone 5/5s. And a cord to connect iPhone 6 to USB port on my car stereo. No sound comes out of the stereo dock or car stereo. In Best Buy today, Sales Associate tried his iPhone 5 running iOS 8 on a stereo dock. It worked, but my iPhone 6 didn't. When will Apple fix this problem? Or is Apple pushing everyone to Bluetooth?

The iPod feature that plays through USB in my car does not work with my iPhone 6 either. I called AppleCare and they said that the car audio system will need a firmware update. Don't know if Apple is just passing the buck, but that is what I was told. Thank you for posting. I know now that I am not the only one. Thanks also for posting about the iPhone 5 running iOS 8. I gave away my iPhone 5 to a friend so I wasn't sure whether this is an iOS 8 issue or an iPhone 6 issue and your experience seems to confirm that it is a problem with iPhone 6. I guess I will just be using Bluetooth in my car, at least for now.

I have an iphone 4s with ios7. Does it work with 4g? If not what i can do to upgrade it?

I have an iphone 4s with ios7. Does it work with 4g? If not what i can do to upgrade it?

The version of iOS is irrelevant to 4G connectivity.
The iPhone 4S supports HSPA which is considered 4G by some carriers, it is NOT an LTE capable device.
If you want a device that supports LTE, you will need to upgrade to an iPhone 5 or newer. LTE capability requires hardware that does not exist in the 4S or older iPhones.

$80 Apple in-ear headphones not working with iPhone 4

I spent $80 on a pair of in ear headphones and they do not work with iPhone 4. I can listen to music and talk but the volume controls are completely nonfunctional. So I used them on my friends 3GS and they work fine. How can Apple come out with a new phone that wont work with their own products? I used to love Apple until this F@#$ing iPhone 4 came out.

According to Apple, they should work with the 4... http://store.apple.com/us/product/MA850G/A?fnode=MTY1NDA1MA&mco=MTM3NTM0Mjg
Are they plugged in to your iPhone all the way?

Iphone bluetooth charging cradle--not made to work with iphone??

About every 5 minutes, my iphone pops up with a note that "this accessory is not made to work with iphone", whenever it's in the charging cradle that came with the apple bluetooth earpiece. Anybody else see this? any idea what's up? I just love the inability to get direct communication with apple on the topic.

I have the same problem. The same pop-up comes up when I plug the iPhone into the cradle that comes with the Apple-branded iPhone bluetooth headpiece. It didn't use to have this problem before, and the iPhone used to recognize the headset as also charging when both were in the cradle. Now, the headset does not even charge up when the iPhone is in the cradle at the same time!! I think the latest iPhone firmware upgrade messed up everything!! HELP!!!!
