WRT54GS - Updated my firmware to v1.52.8 and now it's extremely slow _
Hi there, I decided to update my router firmware for the first time since I bought the thing 6 years ago. Before I updated the firmware I had an average ping to google.ca of 40ms, I am literally 2 feet from my router with an unobstructed view. Since the update to v1.52.8 my ping to google.ca has jumped to 100ms. I've been testing this out all day to see if it was just a busy time of day but 8 hours later it's still the same. I played around with all the different frequencies, auto mtu, different manual mtu (1000-1500), different security settings (WPA2 is still the best) but to no avail.
PLEASE can someone help me revert back to the original firmware
I have searched high and low but can't find anything, thanks.

Hi Ben88, I don't think it's possible to downgrade the firmware to your old one. I also think that it is not safe.

I updated my MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion and now it is slow in starting up and loads a number of probrams. How can I fix the problem?
Have you tried starting in Safe Mode and see if the slowness still occurs?
Restart holding the "shift" key.
(Expect it to take longer to start this way because it runs a directory check first.)
If this works look in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login items and delete any third party login items (-), you can always add them back with the (+). Also look in /Library/Startup Items. Nothing is put in that folder by default, so anything in there is yours.
Reboot normally and test. -
I installed my firmware & security updated (as requested) this afternoon, and now ALL my fonts are opened in Creative Suite 4 although most of them are set to 'OFF' in Fontbook. I also noticed the following problems:
:: When I print (via Finder): the page._ to page _ option within the print window no longer exists; meaning: I can only print ALL pages.
:: Also: In InDesign, the 'Help' menu has replaced the former InDesign Help menu, with Apple Help menu.Thanks! As for the Font issue, I should've included the following. When I repaired the permissions, the following repairs were listed (see above). Then I close Disk Uiltity, test InDesign (to not avail). Then I open Disk Utility again, repair permission again, and the EXACT same permission problems reappear. They follow.
At any rate: I'll give both Adobe and Apple support a ring tomorrow. Thanks for having tried to help, Babowa. I very much appreciate it. Enjoy your evening?

I updated my computer to the new software and now the iPhoto has a circle with a line through it. When I first try to open it the pop us says: "You can't use this version of the application "iPhoto" with this version of OS X. Version: 9.2.1" When I try to update, it pops up to say "These apps cannot be accepted by your apple id - These apps were already assigned to another Apple ID and they will be available in that Apple ID's purchases list. If you don't have access to that Apple ID and want to receive future updates, you will need to purchase the application". I checked and there is nothing under the "purchases" in my App store. Then will say "update unavailable with this apple id - This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or canceled." Then the third pop up says "We could not complete your request. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again". Just want to know how do to fix.
After I upgraded to Mavericks I was also having this message when I tried to update. There was a previous post about this problem which offered this simple solution which worked for me:

I updated my iPhone 4S to the iOS6 and now my music in the cloud will not show up
I updated my iPhone 4S with the OS6 and now my music will now show up on my phone. I have abotu 11000 songs in the cloud. I can see them on my computer- they are all still there- but they don't show up on my phone at all. PLEASE HELP ME!! I am panicking just a bit.
My phone is doing the same thing, I have sprint and they went through all their troubleshooting and nothing worked. Then they transferred me to apple technician. The apple technician went through more troubleshooting and eventually suggested I wipe my phone. I wiped my phone, then using itunes and my phone I was able to get it into recovery mode. Once itunes recognized the recovery mode, it asked me if I wanted to recover my iphone. I went through the whole process, and got everything back. The phones network came back unfortunately not for very long and it was back to searching for the network without me being able to call, receive calls or text. Its been going on for almost a week now since I upgraded to 7.1 and no one can fix it...I want to know how to revert back to 7.0.....

I updated my ipod 5 to ios 7 and now it having issues with wifi connection
I updated my ipod 5 to ios 7 and now it keeps saying my wifi password is incorrect. Ive reset my network settings and it is still not working. any ideas?
Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

I updated to iOS 8 on iPhone 5s and now iMessage will not verify my email address to use to send/ receive messages. It has said "Verifyng" beside it in settings since yesterday, but has not sent a verification email. I have also tried Adding it as a new email address several times, but get the same outcome. I can still send/ receive texts from my phone number, just not from the email address.
In my iCloud settings under Contact Information for that email address and it shows "pending". When I select "Resend Verification Email" I get "Cannot Connect to iCloud".Hello, Dorian071.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

I updated to ios7 on my iphone 4 and now cant install apps and one app says waiting for 2 days now. Also it started ading apps from my wife's phone onto my phone even though we have separate apple ids.
We do not share an apple ID and her phone is now logged in with her account and I have since backed it up on itunes under her account as well. I have turned off automatic downloads on her phone but they still keep downloading. I delete one app and then another one just appears on the phone.

Wifi keeps scanning and dropping even after connected to home network. Never had this issue until the update, and now my phone runs slow and terrible. Horrible update!! Any ideas on a fix?
It's important that you have a steady WiFi connection, ZealousEdge. What phone do you have? Is your phone unable to connect to any WiFi network? If you can, please try deleting the saved WiFi network and re-adding it.
