WRT54GS Power/WLAN issues

I have the WRT54GSv6.0. On Saturday I had my network connected and working perfectly, but on Sunday noticed that the connection to my network kept coming for 5-10 secs and then going.
Having checked my router I noticed the Power light is on for 5-10 secs and then flashes causing with it the WLAN light to go out until the power light comes back on. Because this happens the network connection cannot connect.
Can anyone help and tell me how to resolve this problem?
Thanks

Hi….
Had you experienced any power outage or a power surge before the problem occurred? You can also try resetting the router by pressing the reset button at the back of the router for 30 seconds. After reseting the router powercycle the router for 30 seconds and then reconfiguring it for your internet connection.

Linksys WRT54G power/cable issues.

So I just bought a Linksys WRT54G for $4 at a flea market, but the lady didn't have the exact power cable, so I just grabbed whatever was the closest. The power cable works, but every couple of minutes the router's power light will start blinking and the internet is out. The good news is it comes right back on after about 20 seconds and I also have an original Linksys power cable from my other router, which fixes the issues.
In conclusion....I know the power cable is whats causing it. A new oem charger is like $12 from amazon, but is there any cheaper alternatives from walmart/etc?
Unless someone knows if there is something else causing the issue, but like I said, when I plug an original linksys charger in it from another linksys router, the issue is not there.

Universal power adapters should work provided with the proper output voltage and amperage. It's adjustable so it would be easier to match the requirement. Check your original linksys adapter then match the output voltage (V) and amperes (A or mA).

WRT54G V7 (WLAN issue)

I have my desktop pc connected to this router, eveyrthing works fine. when i connect a laptop (USB adaptor from LinkSys) the laptop says it can find the access point, but no connection, then in a few secs, it says internet found, but then what happens is the connection breaks...desktop loses the connection to the router resulting in no internet, and the WLAN LED on the router also turns off.. I have Static IP on the desktop(before i had automatically get IP), but now i changed... please help!

i tried this...but the same problem...
the wirless network was found the internet works for 40 sec then stops...also the desktop stops communicating with the gateway's IP...
like if i ping the laptop..its...ok..but if i ping the router's ip from desktop or laptop..it says time out..
it seems that for some specific time the router stops broadcasting the internet...because the desktop can access the laptop and vice versa...
also the default router page stops top open..until i trun the router off and back on again
if see the status on the laptop...he actovoty shows constand send and recive in the packets...and the small monitor icon is on constantly...
what about?

Power on-Power off issues with X200

I am having power up and power down issues with my Lenovo X200.
Prior to the immediate problem, I would experience occasional unexpected shutdown of the computer (I would hear a relay click when it happened), and on some occasions when I put it into hibernation, then power it back up later it would not resume, instead, it would restart with a new session of Windows.
About a month ago, it shut down while I was using it. I powered it back on, but it took a long time (nearly a minute) to get the “ThinkPad” initial boot screen, then the screen would be blank for about a minute, then I would get a screen that read, “Intel Management Engine BIOS Extension v 4.0.4.0007” and also “M.E Initializing……” That screen would show for about a minute, then I got another screen reading “Security chip is generating endorsement key pair. Please wait.” That screen would show for about 5 minutes, then it would read, “Generation failed!!!” for about 5 seconds. After that, it would boot to Windows (I am using Windows 7 Professional).
When I would shut it down, either in hibernate mode or full shutdown, after the hard drive icon stopped flashing (indicating it had shut down), the power icon, battery icon would stay on, and the “sleep” icon would flash. I would have to hold the power button down to turn those icons off; if I failed to do that the power would stay on until the battery completely drained.
I read something about the “Security chip is generating endorsement key pair” message so I went into BIOS and changed the security chip from “Active” to “Inactive”. However, when I would start the computer with the chip “inactive”, it would go first to the initial boot screen, then to the “M.E. Initializing” message, then the screen would go blank and remain blank, not ever booting to Windows. So I went back to BIOS and changed the security chip to “Disabled”. With it disabled, it will boot up, but still is very slow booting and I still get that “M.E. Intializing” message for about a minute, and also I still have to hold the power button down to power down the computer after I shut it down (or hibernate) with Windows.
The good news is that, after this started happening, I have not encountered an unexpected shutdown nor has it failed to resume the previous windows session if I hibernate it.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for your help.

The difference may be that the G5 iMac bus (where your fire wire plugs into the back) is a powered bus. What this means is the LaCie drive will "sense" the power from the bus and not turn off. The power it gets from the fire wire bus however may (is) not be enough to actually operate it, only leave it on. You still need to the drive into a power outlet.
In the LaCie manual (CD that comes with drive) and the FAQ section of LaCie's web page it states this as well.
What I do is manually turn the drive on when needed (performing back up or for scheduled back up). The LaCie drive should be quiet when not in use as it has no fan.
PS - try SuperDuper for backups, much better (IMHO) than Silverkeeper.

Power Mac G5 DP1.8GHz - Bad Logic Board or Power Management Issue?

I have a Power Mac G5 DP1.8GHz/1.5GB/80GB which I bought non-working. It has not yet been disassembled or examined by a certified tech. This is it's issue (which replicates): the computer powers on. It makes a single warning tone, then the LED flashed at least 15 times (too fast to count). Then the posting chord is heard. Hard drive spins up. Then nothing (no video). Won’t boot from any disk. I have changed the RAM and tested the RAM banks with known-to-be-good RAM from another DP1.8GHz G5. The warning tone stopped once or twice after this switch, but then it didn’t chime. I changed the PRAM battery, but not with as new one. However, after installing the used one and then resetting the PMU, it displayed video briefly for the first time. While installed in the other 1.8GHz G5, the hard drive was formatted, given a clean install of OS X 10.4.11, and then moved into this computer where is never mounts. The computer is not accessible through TDM.
Do I have a bad logic board? Bad CPUs? A power managment issue? A RAM issue?

Through my own trial and error troubleshooting, I have found the CPUs to be in good working order and the logic board passes the Apple Service Diagnostic every time. Despite the installation of numerous pairs of modules that worked in another DP1.8GHz, the computer has a RAM issue-it gives the "no good RAM" tone most of the time when it powers up (after a PMU reset it does not). Also the computer boots from disk or into Open Firmware but the disk utility can't see either hard drive so I may have a bad SATA controller.

It can only be serviced in the country where it was originally sold. Take it back to the US or send it to someone you know there to take it in for service.

Did you try downgrading to 3.11 to see if that helps ? Looks like other people may be having similar issues - see the later posts in this thread here .
That was originally about a issue with suspends on 3.11 i386 only that was fixed in 3.12. But the last few posts seem to indicate a different issue that started with 3.12.

GS70 laptop power setting issue (it does not save my setting even with admin)

IPhone 5 Power button issues after recent update.

After this most recent update, my power button is not working as it normally does. It takes two or three attempts to turn the phone off and more than once to turn it. Sometimes it turns on and immediately turns off. This is happening only after this update.

Yes 7.1.2 I had a 7.1 backup, and no issues with that... but then I did a clean DL of 7.1.2 and once again with NO apps on the iphone power button issues... as mentioned. So it is not the apps, nor songs, nor anything else...just 7.1.2 I am now running 7.1 no issues.

My Time Capsule has just failed, 2 months after the end of 12m warranty. same old known power supply issue, "just unlucky" says my local Apple service center. ***?

i bought a 2TB Time Capsule in Sep 2010. its just failed last week, less than 2 months after the expiry of the 12month warranty.
and 3 months after the end of Apple's offer to replace all the many Time Capsules that have failed previously due to this same fault.
nice timing guys.
"yeah, its dead. same old known power supply issue", says my local Apple service center, "just unlucky".
huh? "unlucky"? you sell products with known defects, and when it fails i'm "unlucky". nice.
"OK, anyway, how much to fix it ?", i ask.
"you can't fix them, its closed", is the reply, "you have to buy another one".
"hmpf. OK, how do I get my backed-up data off it ?"
"you can't. we could try break it open and recover the hard disk i guess, but no guarantees we'd get it, and you'd have to pay for us to do that, whether it works or not of course".
"er.... is there a hidden camera in here? are we on TV? you can't be serious ? ..and this piece of garbage is what i've been using for a secure backup of my precious, irreplaceable, priceless personal data ???"

ceeb28744. Welcome to the Apple Users Support Community. Sorry to hear your TC died! You said it was a 2TB so I would guess it be the model A1355/MB997LL/A or MC344LL/A. Believe it or not all users of these time capsules will eventually experience this problem like you have. There is a 99.5% (or better) chance that the only thing that is wrong with it is the internal power supply. If you will go to this site.... https://sites.google.com/site/lapastenague/a-deconstruction-of-routers-and-modem s/apple-time-capsule-repair and once there look over at the left side and you will find:
Apple Time Capsule Repairers and from that list you will be able to choose from a list of individuals that could repair your TC and have it returned to you fully operational again. The individuals on the list are hardware technicians and they can save you a lot of money and time.

Network Card turned off and Power regression issues.

Hello,
Can any one please help me setup wifi/ethernet on my Thinkpad t420? It has Intel Wifi Link 1000 BGN. If i am not wrong it is suppose to work by default. How and what modules do i have to load to turn on my wifi card? I know how to make wpa_supplicant work.
Their are power regression issues with linux kernel. How can i make pacman to not to upgrade to latest kernel releases?
Thanks.
PS:- I have done research but couldn't come find an answer. Sorry if this question has been asked many times.

Check http://intellinuxwireless.org/?n=Downloads for intel wifi drivers
Pacman should not syncronize system wide missing packages unless specified with the -u [OPTION] on the -S [SYNC] argument, see the man pages on pacman.
http://www.archlinux.org/pacman/pacman.8.html
Also make sure you have done all the stuff on wireless setup in the beginner guide, it is very comprehensive

HT1430 iPhone 4S Power Button Issue

I have an iPhone4S that has fallen to the broken power button issue - is there a way to restart it without the power button? My phone is acting strange and I know if I restart it then it will be ok. I am already using the Accessibility feature to lock the screen, but cannot figure out how to restart it short of letting the battery run out.

I have the same issue.... just hold down the lock screen button on your accessibility menu until it shows you the power down option. Then plug the charger in & it will automatically turn back on.

IOS6 fixed my WLAN issues!

Hi all!
I just had to share this with you all. Since the release of iPhone 3 I have had WLAN issues (at work, at home, anywhere) resulting in WLAN getting disconnected from time to time. Recently with iOS5 on my iPhone 4 I had to manually connect to the WLAN each time I used my phone. Irritating to say the least!
But since the iOS6 upgrade the WLAN connects itself in about 5 seconds from that I wake the iPhone from "sleep".
I might just stick with the iPhone 4 and not get a 5:er since I´m finally really happy with my phone!

I dont think it works correctly GSPEARSON as changing my BTID password had no effect on my email password. The BTID password was changed on numerous occasions during trouble shooting with no effect. The only way to actually change my email password I found was using the password change feature under manage emails after switching my default email address to another. This password change feature is not available to the default email account only other owned addresses.
BT's system isn't clear or coherent in my view. It is also misleading that you can have say a password X for your BT ID and a password Y for your default email address and can access it through either (login through btID then click emails using X or login to btmail.bt.com with Y. I dont like that at all.

QIP 7216 power on issue

I have a QIP 7216 settop box connected to the TV via component cables (not HDMI). Sometimes when I turn the settop on, i get audio, but the video is all black.... If i power the box off, then on again, it's fixed. If I change channels, it's fixed.... Anyone else experience this?

I don't have a 7216, I have a 6416 with component cables, and I've certainly seen the problem. the easiest fix is to just change the channel, and then change back to the original channel. I haven't seen the problem on 1.6.2, but I've only had it a few days, so that's hardly a valid test.
So I doubt it is an HDMI handshake issue. I suspect it is a firmware issue on the box. I don't doubt that unplugging and waiting 60 seconds fixes it, but that's a major PIA compared to just changing the channel, and then changing back. It is strictly a power on issue, so once it is goes away, it stays away until the box is tuned off again.
Anyway I have come to regard it is a nuisance that is low on the long list of other problems with FiOS DVR boxes.

7216 power on issue

I have a 7216 w/ 1.6.2 settop code. Sometimes when I turn the settop on in the mornings - I have audio, but no video. I have to turn the settop off then on again to get video. I am using component cables to connect to my TV, not HDMI. Anyone else notice any "funny" behavior with the 7216 when ya turn them on?
