WRT54G2 - The story so far

I have closed the thread "WRT54G2 setup and using Linksys software", even though all is still not well, in order to create this summary here in the hope it will help others.
The story so far:
Following problems with the installation of the WRT54G2 router and the Linksys EasyLink Advisor Software I have:
1. Downloaded and installed the firmware update 1.0.03.
2. Followed all the instructions for setting the router back to factory defaults.
3. Reinstalled the router and the Easylink software.
For some reason on my Avanti Satellite set up the browser address to get into the router setup is 192.168.0.1
I can get to the setup using the Easylink software but I can't use a number of the other  options (like wireless security) as they still give the error message “Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation”. Nice though the idea is in its present state the software has limited use so I have removed it.
I have set up the wireless section via the browser.
So where do I stand now? The router works, however, after about 10 to 15 minutes the wireless section simply disappears. A scan for it shows it no longer exists. My wireless printer is also not available even when connected via the LAN.
The cure is to turn off the router for a few seconds then reboot it. It then works okay for as long as I leave it on. If I turn it off for a long period (overnight) then it will always fail to operate after 10 to 15 minutes, again, but okay for the day after a reboot. Very odd!
I have done more resets, reboots and reinstalls than I have had hot dinners but still end up with the same problems.
For interest I am using a laptop with a Celeron (1.4GHz), 1.5 GB memory, and an ATi mobility Radeon 9700 graphics card and Windows XP home with SP3.
I hope this helps others and someone can up with a cure for the routers odd behaviour.
Regards

Hi,
Today I gave up. The wireless side of the router goes off after 10 minutes or so. A reboot brings it on again and it then works okay for the rest of the time (can be on for hours) However, I do not want to leave it perminantly on so I have returned it to the shop where I bought it and changed it for a different make.
Regards,

  • FCserver .... the story so far in the Profession arena

    well thought I would spread the love and tell you my story so far...
    The Kit
    10 x 8 core MacPros - 8 Gig Ram - 4 GB Fibre network - 40TB storage.
    The Brief
    We have a collective library of "mood elements" kind of like Getty (by the way are the best footage library we have used)
    We also have over 6TB of indexed HDV files for a major travel company.
    With over 25,000 Mood tapes and over 10,000 HDV files I decided that we were ready for the onslaught of FCserver, I set up all the macpros and decommissioned a Dual 2 - 4GB ram PPC, installed 105 server on this old dear (this also has fibre but only 2GB/s card and spf)
    Before completely blowing my head off I decided to 'slightly wound myself' by installing it on a MacBook Pro to navigate around the Lookup menus, metadata fields etc - by the way this was the best thing to do, as I would travel back on the train at night it would allow me to log on (yes you need a IP address and internet for it to work)
    Helpful hint 1 - get a sharpened HB pencil and writing pad - write down in columns, Look Ups and their metadata ie "My Edit Suites" then Edit 1, Edit 2 etc - write as much information as you can
    The create a new field called My Edit Suites, this field will allow you to allocate the correct look up.
    Helpful Hint 2 - DECIDE YOUR WORKFLOW !!!!! Man alive this is the so important, if you have a SAN (like us) I created a Folder called FinalCutServer, in there is where everything will go, in here create "watch folders" these can be anything ----- we have about 10 folders each to a part of our business, ie MoodTapeFootage, XXXXXtravelFootage etc. coinsiding
    Install !!! - point your Proxie and media folder set up to the FinalCutServer folder - there it will create Library, Media, Watcher & Bundle plugins ! for the love of god don't mess with these bad boys
    So off I went installed, set up metadata info Created new sub folders in the library folders that matched the watch folders, this will make it easier to media manage later, I created watch folder alerts that would transcode the files then move them to the subfolder - happy days.
    Opened the java app and in admin settings set the compressor cluster to the FinalCutServer Cluster Pig ( this is the cluster I set up by starting ll the edit machines and allocating 2 services per machine, in theory I should have 20 processors available to me.
    Set off with just a few jobs - WOWZER - super quick and done, buy the way the Jobs window takes me back to Telestream FlipFactory - so I am excitied all proxies are working and away we go ....... Do I drag the 24,995 over ! **** no
    When I drag 100 jobs over it pumps away - at this stage I am relising a Dual 2 PPC is just not cutting the mustard, in activity window everything is pushed to the roof,
    I am constantly force quitting the Compressor service via activity window and popping back over to the jobs window to see the jobs start again, I also need to go into System Prefs, FCserver and stop the service and start again.
    So my research shows if your going to back catalogue stuff - all our files are correct media formats ie AT, WMV, GET A BIG BOX a 8 core xserve with ram will be your friend, PLAN PLAN PLAN - TEST TEST TEST and just when you are ready load the IT Gun, clock the lever and then tell your staff - "you all good to use that funny icon on your desktop" turn around and walk back to your desk, and wait for the phone calls !

  • BT Infinity, the story so far

    For some odd reason my speed drops dramatically as soon as it hits 12.00am and as I play online poker late at night its a real pain. Also yesterday my HH disconnected and re-synced about 50 times all through the day and evening.
    I'm guessing all of the above is normal as I am still in my 10 day trainning period. Just hope is steadys out in the next 5 days as I have had bad experiences with BT in the past with their BT Total Broadbad back in 2006-2007 and don't want to go down that road again.
    Will keep ya updated

    Yeah mate, that's why I never bothered raising a fault, only if it disconnects and dosen't come back on then I will. Aint had any disconnections today so far so fingers crossed, just a bit baffled about the big drop in speed at midnight, as soon as the clock hits 00.00am..BANG! 3-5 mb and a lot off page refreshing. Maybe they think thats my peak time....lol. I'm not a big user either, I have downloaded 60gb so far and thats just because it's new and I'm having a ball with the speed but now slowed down and still well within my 300gb quota before getting limited speed at peak times.
    Oh well, I'll see how it goes after 10-14 days and if it's not up to scratch I'll raise a fault. Until then it's not worth worring about just yet

  • My broadband experience. The story so far....

    Hello. I just thought I'd highlight my plight with BT. Issue is still not fixed...see my version of War and Peace below. Enjoy!
    On the 15th (after 2+ years of solid connectivity) the hub started flashing green and orange every 20 minutes or so.....
    Dec 15: Reported by phone; Diagnosed as hub fault
    Dec 17th Replacement hub received
    Dec 18th – Reported broadband still bouncing. Was informed further tests would be carried out.
    Dec 19th – Called for update. Was informed there was a confirmed fault. An engineer would be sent.
    Dec 24th – Engineer visited and installed new MK3 socket and moved hub position.
    (Following his visit was unable to dial out on the phone)
    Dec 27th – Reported phone issue and continuing broadband issue.
    Dec 28th – 2nd engineer visited without correct test gear but confirmed there was a line fault. Said he would ask for a broadband engineer to be scheduled.
    Dec 29th – Again informed BT that fault was not fixed. No record of previous engineers visit. Agreed to schedule another engineer.
    Dec 31st – Engineer should have visited between 1 and 6 pm. Nobody showed.
    Jan 1st – Reported no show from engineer. Engineer scheduled for tomorrow.
    Jan 2nd – Engineer arrived (a line engineer). Fixed the line fault (caused by the engineer on the 24th not wiring the socket correctly). Carried out extensive tests and proved the fault was with the line, not internal to the property.
    Jan 2nd (PM) – Reported again – Broadband engineer scheduled for the 5th.
    Jan 5th – Broadband engineer arrived. Tested internal equipment. Proved line fault. He went to exchange and called from there. Confirmed a card issue. Informed me the card needed replacing or moving to new slot. He informed this would be carried out overnight by exchange engineer.
    Jan 6th – Reported issue still happening (broadband bouncing) in the a.m. Called back at 6pm to be informed the engineering team had gone home so could not get an update.
    Jan 7th – Call back from the engineering team at 3pm. They were unable to contact the engineer involved as he was not at work the previous day. He would be working tomorrow so update then.
    Jan 8th - ?

  • Photoshop Elements 10 - 'Save As' text no longer displaying existing file, which matches the text so far entered

    Photoshop Elements 10  (On Windows 8.1 64-bit laptop)
    Until recently, 'save as' showed any existing file name, which exactly matched the text so far typed. 
    That's particularly useful when creating multiple photo files, with suffixes of '(1)', '(2)', etc.
    Suddenly that great facility has stopped, forcing me to always type the complete file name for each new item.
    I assume that a setting has been lost.
    How do I get it back?

    Thanks again.
    I held the keys down for at least 15 seconds in my previous attempts.  
    I’ve just tried the entries, holding the keys for around 30 seconds, with the same results (or lack of same).
    Thinking about my thought of copying the Preference settings from the same program on my desktop, I looked on the Internet for Photoshop Elements 10 Preferences file locations.   I found a display, which suggested:  C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements (9.0\10.0\11.0)\Editor
    From that, it appears that mine may be held in:
    C:\Users\Fred Niven\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\10.0\Editor
    But I’m reluctant to copy any such file from my Windows 8.1 desktop’s Photoshop Elements 10’s file(s),
    to replace the equivalent file(s) on this laptop, until I know that I’m replacing the correct file(s). 
    I’d create a System Restore Point beforehand anyway, just-in-case.
    Cheers,

  • My story is working in dvd studio pro but how do I get the track to play with and without the story?

    Hi there,
    I've targetted my first button to play all and I've targetted my second button to play all: story 1. The play all option is still playing the same as the play all:story 1 option.
    Can someone please help me figure out what I'm missing here. It should be straightforward but something isn't working.
    Many thanks
    Oonagh

    Not sure if I explained my problem well at the start.
    I have a 1 track dvd and I want two play options. 1 is the play all option, the other is an interactive option where the track will stop at certain points in the dvd. I have created 2 stories for each task. However, I can't alter 1 story without it altering the other story. Therefore for the play all option, when I want to take out the property whereby it stops at certain points in the interactive play option, it takes it out of both stories. If I target the play all button to just the track without any story, it still is linked to the interactive story.
    The way I've made the story markers interactive is by putting the playback option to infinite.
    I thought I had solved the problem by  deleting the interactive story markers  in the play all story  but now when it plays through, it's not seamless where I removed these chapters and seems to jump a bit at these points.
    If anyone can shed some light it would be much appreciated

  • TS1702 Hello! Can I get something like the story of the safari browser, if it was removed?

  • Using the new AppleTV, I cannot seem to find the same TV shows on the iTune Store as the older AppleTV. The selection is far more limited. For example, Modern Family is not available ... Any reason why?

    I recently upgraded from an older AppleTV to the new AppleTV. The TV Shows I can access through the new AppleTV are far fewer than before. For example, I cannot find Modern Family on the iTune Store, whereas I used to be able to find it on my older AppleTV. Any reason why the selection is more limited?

    I just found out the answer to my own post by browsing through other discussions. Looks like the new AppleTV only provides access to rental TV shows. Can't purchase anything ... So, the selection is far more limited. It's a drag, but at least the mystery is solved...

  • What is the story on mac vulnerability? Is it serious or not serious?  If not serious, why is this not being explained?  If serious, why are Mac users not being informed of the risk?

    what is the story on mac vulnerability? Is it serious or not serious?
    If serious, why are we not kept informed
    If not serious, why is some much anxiety being created?

    IMO, it is being greatly over-blown in the media and online.
    Man in the middle attacks require the hacker to be connected to the same intranet network that your device is.  Even if they are, unless you go to a secure site and use personal data (like passcodes) they get nothing from stealing your data stream.
    If you are at your home, on your own secured intranet, then you really have virtually nothing to fear (as long as your own home network is secured and not wide open to anybody within range).  If you routinely use a VPN connection when on public wifi, again, you are fine.  Or if you use FireFox, Chrome or another browser that implements its own SSL security, then you are fine.
    The fact is, that even for those in a particular situation that is vulnerable to such an attack, most are not actually under any such attack - it is not nearly as rampant as the recent hype would have it seem to be.

  • OC4J / OAS 11g - What is the story behind the release?

    We are heavily investing in the Java framework known as Seam which is heavily Java 1.5 reliant. As you're probably aware, 1.4 compatibility was added to OAS as of 10.1.3; meanwhile, the OC4J11 has been in technology preview for over a year. With Oracle's acquisition of BEA and other things - does anyone know what the story is behind 11g AS? Will we ever see it? Will Oracle simply re-brand BEA's products as their own? Oracle is quickly falling behind the Java development/deployment gap; how much longer is OC4J11 going to be a "preview" before they give it the go-ahead for a release?
    Thanks.

    You can also check thread Re: OC4J 11 / JDeveloper 11g Production Release? - Oracle Support has replied to me that Fusion Middleware 11g that contains OC4J 11g is "still not ready to be released".

  • I want to print the story on a story site but all that gets printed is the home page.

    If I go to a site where readers have posted stories I want to print out those stories so I can read them in a comfortable chair and not have to stare at a computer screen. When using Internet Explorer when I click on the story and then hit ctr+p it will print out the story no matter how many pages it is.
    When I try that on Firefox all that gets printed is the home page of the site.
    By the way, my computer shop installed Firefox the other day so I don't know what version it is.

  • I'm unable to drag-and-drop a script from the Story window in Premiere Pro to a clip

    I have a film script visible in the Story window, and I try to drag it to the relevant clip in the Premiere Pro project window—but nothing happens.
    I have also tried to attach an astx file, but I get the "matching scene number not found" error, even though I put scene number 1 in the clip and in the astx.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Incidentally, though your help indicates that "all the scripts" you have in Story will be visible in the Story Windows in Premiere Pro, I can see only the film scripts—not for instance the multicolumn scripts I also have.  Is there something I can do about this?
    Thanks you,
    PIerre Sauvage

    Hi,
    Please make sure that you are performig drag drop with scenes and not complete scripts. You will notice a cursor change when you do so. For more clarification, please refer to this post. 'http://forums.adobe.com/message/5533247#5533247'.
    Importing astx is a much longer way to go through the same thing , so i would suggest to try out the drag drop workflow only and let me know in case you still face issues with it.
    Also, yes, column scripts wont be visible to you in the Story panel inside Premiere. For this, I am afraid you will have to convert your column scripts into a film script. Let me know if you need help with this.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks
