WRT54GS Not Allowing Certain Sites

We have a WRT54GS router and somewhere it is having issues with us connecting to specific sites. The most common issue is with netflix.com. If I am connected via an ethernet cable directly to the modem I can connect to netflix just fine, but when I connect to the wireless network I can not access the site. I still have a very strong connection and complete speed tests at above 6Mbps but still can not connect to that site. The newest adition that I have learned is that if I connect my laptop thru a vpn on the wireless network I can reach netflix and those other sites as well. The vpn is Vyper if that makes any difference. Anyways is there some setting(s) on the router that might be hindering connections to sites? And though netflix is the most common problem it is not the only one. It has only become an issue over the past few weeks in which we couldn't connect to the site thru the router. Any ideas?

Open the setup page of the router. Set the MTU to manual and reduce the size to 1365.
Power cycle the router and see if that works.
Make sure that the Firmware on the router is up to date.
If not then download the latest firmware from the Linksys website and upgrade it on the router.

  • Safari Not Opening Certain Sites????

    I am encountering some trouble with this new Safari set up. Most recent issue is, tried to open a site on my computer that worked yesterday. Contacted sites webmaster and they told me that Microsoft updated its internet browser and that if I don't have the correct settings on my brower, I will not be able to view the site. They told me to contact my ISP to have them walk me thru fixing the trouble. My ISP, verizon told me that this is not their issue but to contact Apple. I just want to know how I can view my website now? Firefox won't even work on it. It is just my work resume system and it does work at my office via a Microsoft Internet browser, just not with my Safari any more. I don't know what I need to do to fix this. Please help!

    Yang, I appreciate the response. I tried your suggestion out and it didn't work. I keep getting this message:
    The Web server you are attempting to reach has a list of IP addresses that are not allowed to access the Web site, and the IP address of your browsing computer is on this list.
    Your IP address identifies your home network - or whatever network you are using to access the web. (That is, your home modem or router or your work modem or router.) This means that your location has been blocked from accessing this web site. I suppose this could be something automated by the web site you are trying to visit. It can also be done deliberately by the administrator of the web site. (Edit: One thought is that you might have been locked out due to having tried the wrong username and password too many times, or for some similar security issue.)
    Trying to access the site via a different web browser isn't likely to change that, since it is your location ("your browsing computer") that is being blocked. The only thing you can do if that message is accurate is contact the IT people who manage your workplace's web site again, this time giving them that error message so they know that this is not a problem with your web browser or the Mac OS - it is a very specific problem due to your IP address being actively blocked by the server where the site is hosted.

  • Time Capsule will not load certain sites

    When I've selected my Time Capsule as my network, internet browsers run slow and certain sites will not load at all.  In particular, Yahoo will not load, so I have trouble accessing my email.  It works fine when I switch the network to the wireless router supplied by my ISP.  I'd rather default to the Time Capsule to use the backup function automatically.  Does the Time Capsule have the ability to block sites?  If so, how do I clear them out?

    Ok.. you missed the point.. sorry if I used jargonese.
    Factory reset the TC and start over.
    The Factory Reset universal
    Unplug your TC/AE. Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on..  all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. The time is not important.. it is the front LED rapid flashing that indicates you are in factory mode.
    Release reset.
    If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have released reset at some point and try again.
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
    Give the TC a simple name.. eg TCgen5 (or whatever Generation it is).
    Give the wireless a simple name.. eg TCwifi when you do the setup with the airport utility.
    DO NOT USE APPLE NAMES recommended by the utility. They are WRONG.
    For PC they need windows compatible names. You are not giving them windows compatible names with
    Fred Blog's Airport Time Capsule
    But TCgen5 is fine.
    What modem are you using?? Make and model please.
    If the TC has a double NAT issue it will say so.. ie in the airport utility you will an error.. double NAT. Please if you have a double NAT error do not ignore it.. fix it. ie the TC should be in bridge not router mode.

  • Contact form not allowing certain characters

    Hi
    I added a contact form to a site, and the input fields aren't allowing numbers or certain letters.
    If I test the contact form swf by itself, it works fine.  But as soon as I test it in the site, the problem occurs.
    I haven't got any other actionscript around the contact form, so am puzzled.
    I would sure appreciate someone taking a look to see if anything obviou is wrong.
    The site is www.skinrevival.com.au  - the contact link is on the bottom left menu.
    Cheers guys
    Shaun

    U should enable the Numerals and puctuation to accept the special and number chanacters. find the attached image for your reference.

  • Safari Not Allowing Secure Site

    I updated my Mac Software to OSX 10.4 this morning and I've been noticing some issues with Safari 2.
    The main issue is it won't let me open pages that require a secure authentication (for example it wouldn't allow me to access to login page for the Apple forums -- I'm here with Firefox now). It brings up a page that says cannot open page.
    I've also tried it with my bank and credit card and get the same response.
    Any idea what's the problem here?

    You're welcome. Glad you got this sorted out. The anchor keychains are critical for accessing in Safari any secured site.
    Regarding 10.4.6, the most stable version of OS X is either 10.4.9 or 10.4.10 Also, these two versions contain the latest security upgrades for Safari.
    Download access for 10.4.9 may be found here. As with the previous post's recommendation about 10.4.10, important to "repair permissions" etc. if installing. Also, do not use the computer during the installation phase.

  • Safari Will Not Load Certain Sites

    About a couple of weeks ago, myspace.com was giving me a "can’t connect to the server" error immediately after i press enter on my iBook G4. And back in January chugworth.com was doing the same thing and continues to this day. Both sites will load on any PC and ony my Mac Mini on the same wireless connection. I've tried absolutely everything. I've emptied the cache, reset Safari, repaired permissions, run Yasu, and attempted to access the sites in Firefox and Camino.
    Anyone have any solutions?

    Any updates on this problem? I am experiencing the "white screen" problem with the www.livedownloads.com website. I have not experienced the problem with any other sites. Just this one so far.
    I know it's not a problem with the site because I can access the site from my Internet Explorer browser at work.
    Also, some other sites are "acting funny". Specifically, if any links would normally spawn a new page, Safari is generating an error message.
    This really stinks. I tried using Firefox also, but it does not work either. Must be something in the operating system and/or the manner in which OS X interacts with Safari.

  • WILL NOT ALLOW SELECTED SITE TO LOAD UNTIL "ALLOW" IS CLICKED AT TOP RT OF SCREEN. WANT TO ELIMINATE THIS STEP

    when accessing selected sites, firefox will prevent until the "ALLOW" box is selected at top right corner of page. I would like the page selected to load without this required step.

    A transition (in your case a cross dissolve) is limited by the length of the 'handles' that exist at the beginning and end of the clips involved.  For a balanced 1-second cross dissolve, there need to be at least 15 frames at the end of the outgoing (first) clip + 15 frames at the beginning of the incoming (second) clip that are  'handles'.
    Handles are the frames between the start point of a  source media clip  and the IN point you set in that clip; and between the OUT point of the clip and the source media end.
    If your IN point = the media start point of the source clip (ie 00:00:00;00) then there are no handles at the beginning of the clip.  If your OUT point = the media end point of the source  clip, then there are no handles at the end of the clip.
    In the example of a 1-second cross dissolve
    The OUT point of the outgoing (first clip) would need to be at least 15 frames before the end point of the underlying source clip and
    The IN point of the incoming (second clip) would need to be at least 15 frames after the start point of the underlying source  clip.
    Here is an illustration from Piero Fiorani's excellent description of timecode including handles:

  • WHERE DID YOU HIDE THE AD BLOCKER PAGE TO "ALLOW" CERTAIN POP-UPS?

    I've got a few questions! And I WILL NOT keep logging in to ask every one! First, Why, after I have logged in to get to the support page, do I have to log in AGAIN, just to get to the page to see a reply to a question? AND THEN, when I want to ASK a question? There should not be a need for "SECURITY MEASURES" just to ask a stinking question for gods sakes! Second, When I downloaded fire fox I installed the Ad Blocker Add On, but now that I want to tell it to "ALLOW" certain sites to be "overlooked", I cannot find the icon that used to be up in the right hand corner next to "Home" and Bookmarks"! I was told these were going to be Easier to use. I have looked everywhere I can think of that should be looked at to find something from Fire Fox and its not anywhere., Please help everyone, and me, out with these problems!

    Well I have to say thanks because I found the Ad Blocker icon. But when I was trying to move it I could not drag it anywhere when I tried to, so I clicked on "put in status menu/bar" and low and behold now I cannot find it or the status menu/bar anywhere! When I look to the menu bar,(which by the way I did not find except by accident, way down near the bottom of the screen) there is a n"faded out" tiny x that goes away with the entire menu bar whenever I click on it! So now if someone would be kind enough to aim me in the direction of the status menu/bar, I'll put it back where it was and hope I won't lose anything else! thanks for the quick help and Goodnight all!

  • Why do I have to select "continue allowing" every time I visit certain sites in order to be able to type into flash based form fields?

    Why do I have to select "continue allowing" every time I visit certain sites in order to be able to type into flash based form fields?
    See attached image for reference to what button I am referring to. Until i hit the "continue allowing" button I can not type into the form fields. I have tried removing and reinstalling flash. refreshing firefox, and clearing cache and cookies, and deleting the permissions.sqlite file. Nothing has worked. This issue just started happening a few days ago. Please let me know what I might be able to do to fix this.

    That full page including the form is a Flash object.
    I didn't see this doorhanger opening when I tried the URL in a new profile.
    Did you previously created an exception or is the default selected if you check the permissions for the Flash plugin?
    You can inspect and manage the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab:
    *Click the "[[Site Identity Button|Site Identity Button]]" (globe/padlock) on the location/address bar
    *Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
    You can go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions)
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

  • HT3228 When I try to send an email from my Iphone it will not send and tells me the recepient will not allow relaying.  The email will sit in my outbox and then at some point will send.  It sometimes takes days.  What is wrong with my settings?

    When I try to send an email either new, or reply on my phone I receive a notification that recepient will not allow relaying.  The email will then sit in my outbox.  At some point it will send but it is hardly dependable.  What is wrong with my settings?

    The collum to the right listed similar problems.  The solution appears to be that under smtp outgoing settings the user name and password are listed as optional.  I have not plugged in the information and it seems to be working.  However from my office it always allowed the relaying.  The true test will be when I try to respond later from the road.
    Thank you for your help.
