WRT54GS not working right at all

I bought this about a year or two ago and it was working fine UNTIL some neighbors started using it and lagging up my stupid network! So i tried setting the Password and it worked fine password was enforced. BUT THEN i had to go all over administrative and change the SSID to Gabe..... that screwed everything up somehow. the computer would connect to the router under the SSID of Gabe and the SSID of linksys but when i would connect to either one it would just keep disconnecting! So i changed the SSID back to linksys and disabled the password to no effect.  i looked in the manual and it said to reset the router to it's original settings hold down the cisco button for 5 seconds, so i did. It went to some funky SSID like linksys_SES_4986759 errrr something like that so i did it again and it went back to linksys and the cisco button changed to orange again but now it STILL is connecting and disconnecting  on wireless and wont even go on the internet with a cable connecting the router to the computer.  all i'm asking is there SOME WAY TO COMPLETELY RESET THE SETTINGS COMPLETELY WITHOUT MESSING IT UP???????   and after that i will need to set a password without messing it up so is there any way to do that also?? or is linksys completely dysfunctional.....

Press the RESET button,on the back of the unit for 30 seconds. This will reset the unit back to factory defaults.

  • Firefox's popup blocker setting not working right at all...

    It's actually ignoring what I tell it.
    I disabled it because I use a third party popup blocker and Firefox's is nothing but trouble because I have to whitelist sites on-demand, which might work normally but now sites are rendering their windows with popups that are not ads - i.e. login boxes and such, and it's a pain to keep having to allow. So I disabled it. Well it's still blocking popups. It's not the third party blocker, because it's not set to block any popups from sites that I authorized fully. Just to verify I disabled the third party and clearly saw Firefox blocking the popup even though I removed the "Enable Popup Blocker" checkbox.

    I do not think it it a gmail problem. Case in point, try logging onto Guest or make another user. When I tried this gmail came up perfectly and more importantly Mail would close normally.
    I too have the same problem. What seems to be the worst of it is I cannot fully remove my accounts and start over. Trying to do it through mail only locks it up, and I must not be removing all corresponding files when I try to clean up using Finder. Somehow is still recognizes my accounts.
    I just want to wipe the slate and start over, but I can't seem to do that.

  • Remote not working right

    I've had my FIOS about 2 months, put new batteries in remote and it is still not working right.  Some things work fine.  Other things stopped working - can't delete a DVR show, can't change channels with one digit, but it will if I add all 4 digits, info box on bottom of screen never disappears (unless I hit exit).  What's wrong?
    My second TV set-up is OK.
    Solved!

    Might not even be a remote issue. Have you tried rebooting the box?
    If you do think it's the remote it's still under warranty.
    You can get a free replacement easy within the dvr's menu.
    Here is a page that tells you ways to get a replacement.

    Get a new remote and if you still have the same issues then you'll know its the dvr that needs to be replaced.

  • Is there any way to redownload iOS 5 my iPod touch 4 th generation white 32 gig is not working right?

    My iPod is not working right. It's slow and lags and just doesn't work and always exits apps. I was if there was any way to redownload ios5 because it does the same things after I've reset about 4 times. Please help! It's even lagging why I am typing this. The thing that I checked below are all of the things that are not working on my iPod.

    You cannot reinstall iOS without doing a restore. But you might first try a software update. If you have iOS 5.0 or 5.0.1, you can update to iOS 5.1 by going to Settings > General > Software Update.

  • IPad 2 was updated to latest iOS 7 and has been not working right since. I have tried to do a restore but still continues to go into reboot mode by itself and very erratic. Can no longer trust it. I tried to complain to Apple but have to give them 20 buck

    iPad has not worked right since it updated to latest software. Tried to question Apple about it but it costs 20 bucks just to lodge a complaint. Is this normal Apple behavior or am I missing something. Also anyone else having issues with upgrade to iOS7. It was working great until that point and now goes into reboot mode often and sometimes will continuously reboot several times. I have tried to restore but that didn't clear the problem. Any thoughts or help would be appreciated.

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • Since updating to 706 the sound on my ipad2 is not working right. On videos or music. There is constant distortion and what sounds like interference. Any ideas?

    Since updating to 706 the sound on my ipad2 is not working right--on videos or music. There is distortion and some kind of interference at all times. Any ideas?

    Has the unit EVER been jailbroke?
    If "No," first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • Safari 5.1.2 Not working right after install

    Hi, after installing the update for Snow Leopard safari is not working right. Some pages don't load, and other don't load correctly.
    I have to keep hitting refresh two or three times. Also thunbnails are not displaying. Even the apple page comes up looking buggy.
    Please help!

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. First, disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse, monitor, and Ethernet, if applicable. Boot in safe mode and log in as yourself. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    During startup, you will see "Safe Boot" on the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all, perhaps including wireless networking on certain Macs. If you usually connect to the Internet via WiFi, and it doesn’t work in safe mode, connect using an Ethernet cable. If you can’t do that, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and perform a safe login, as follows: Enter your credentials at the login screen, then hold down the shift key and click the “Log in” button. Keep holding the key until the menu bar appears. In this mode, your login items, among other things, won’t load.
    In safe mode, test again. Same problem(s) now?
    After testing, reboot (if you booted in safe mode) or log out/log in (if you performed a safe login) as usual.

  • Command key not working right in several applications

    All of a sudden, some functions are not working right, i.e., in PhotoShop when I select the Zoom key I get a minus rather than the usual plus. In Date and Time, I started getting a 24 hour clock. If I go there in System Prefs and change to 24 hour clock, then the readout on my menu bar is for 12 hour clock. Sometimes when I use Command-Q the machine asks me if I want to close all programs rather than just the one I'm attempting to leave. What is wrong?

    Hi n,
    I have no idea if this might work, but I'd reset the PRAM and SMC.

    My Safari is not working  right.  It often stalls and I get the "colored spinning wheel of Death".  I send reports to Apple, but I never get any response or helpful info.  What do I do to get Safari working correctly on my MacBook laptop?

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

  • Sound Blaster X-FI Pci Express Front Panel Not working right Win7

    ASound Blaster X-FI Pci Express Front Panel Not working right Win7
    Please read carefully
    Part number Part SB040
    Hello,
    I have a fresh install of Win7x64 OEM. First, I want to say that I have "AUTOMATICALLY MUTE SPEAKERS" UNCHECKED under the Headphone detection tab. I have tried "Automatically Enable Headphone Settings" checked or unchecked. No difference.
    As soon as I plug in headphones to the front panel connector , the speakers in the mixer say "disconnected" (see below) and the SPDIF becomes the default output. There is no way for me to change this. And there isn't any sound coming from the headphones when plugged into the front panel. (the mic front panel works fine)
    I am using the nati've Win7 drivers for the card. Apparently the Win 7 drivers on your site are older than the nati've ones.
    This worked fine in Windows XP 32. Any ideas.

    Ok guys this is how I fixed the problem on my X-Fi PCI-Express. Open the Creative SB X-Fi Volume panel. Mine is set in game mode and I have 5 vertical sliders for Line-In /Mic, MIDI Synth, Digital-In, and the last one will say one of three things either Digital-In, Microphone, or Mirophone FP. At the top of the?slider there is a tab which brings up a drop down menu. Mine was default set to Digital-In, I switched it to Mirophone FP (tried Microphone first and it worked but the FP sounds better for me) and cranked it all the way up and my problem was solved. Very frustrating one though as there is no documentation that led me to the fix it was just playing around with it till I could figure it out.
    I hope this at least helps some of you out.

  • My keyboard does not work right how can i fix it

  • Help, my iPod's not working right.

    Help. I unfortunately downloaded iOS 6.0 to my iPod touch and now it's not working right. I can't listen to anything in the itunes store and a song I tried to download doesn't work on my iPod, yet it works on my computer. Is there anyway to go back to the old OS system I had before this one? Is this happening to anyone else? What can I do?

    You are very welcome!
    It would seem that the problem was that you were not logged into your iTunes account on your device, and logging in fixed it.
    That is great! You did well in your troubleshooting. I'm glad you got it fixed. Sometimes, just messing around with it, trying to figure it out helps.
    As for updating, it would be good to do as I suggested, but I don't know what Apple's next update will hold for our devices. Whether it will fix only some, or all of the problems. So I would say that keeping an eye out, maybe on this forum, for results of the next update, whether or not it helped others, and how much it fixed. It may even take a few more updates for it to come back around to working as it should. Once your device doesn't seem to be full of errors and bugs, (and maybe the Apple forums are full of positive reviews) then you can stop updating. I'm not saying that updates are always bad, it is hard to tell. So if your comfortable with how your device is working, then you can choose to ignore future updates, it's your choice. I don't know when the updates are coming out either, so we are all riding it and seeing how it will turn out.

    Waiting for Tidbits and Elector to grace my post with there constant negativity and start a war of words as usual... since they love stirring the pot and angering the Windows Phone Community every time they reply to posts.  I just can't believe they spend that much time here on the forums replying if they are not a paid Verizon employee or a paid basher from a competing platform.

    Well I found nothing wrong in your post. So why even make a statement like the quote I included?
    Once more I am a retired government employee. So I have the time to post. Or has my rights been taken away to voice an opinion?
    Your posts was great you were not whining about your rights to file complaints to the FCC or FTC etc. One of the best I have read.
    And I am not trying to sway you from your phone choice. If you looked at my avitar it shows apple iphones. But I use and have used androids and not Windows phones.
    However your numbers of windows phone users all leaving over the issue is miniscule in the number of users of Android and iOS devices.
    I have written many times I wish all the devices get updated like iOS devices do. But at present that is not happening
    No bashing, no adversarial post just a little common sense is all I use.
    And again your post was great.
    Good Luck
