WRT600n difficulties after reset/trouble reaching some websites generally.

Hello,
I am using my WRT600N as a second wireless access point. By this I mean, I have a primary router that is connected to the ISP via the DSL jack. I get the internet connection through that router piped through an ethernet port.
I have had difficult-to-troubleshoot connectivity problems with the devices connected through the WRT, both wirelessly and hardwired to it. While devices connected to the primary router have no such problems, I cannot connect to an odd variety of sites: for instance, cannot go to ebay login, or to the NY Post's Page Six (one is https one not).
In order to address these matters, I did a reset 30-30-30 style (although I didn't find 30-30-30 to make much difference). I did it a couple times!!
I had assumed this would reset the WRT's IP address. I had it at 192.168.0.2 to work with the primary (which is a Dlink). After the reset, I tried to login at 192.168.1.1: is this not the WRT's default admin login? Neither http nor https in a machine directly cabled to the WRT gets me anything (nor does 192.168.0.2).
So, question 1, where do you reckon my admin login is now, please?
Oddly, the wired devices to the WRT work PRECISELY as they did before the reset, with the same oddly-unreachable websites. Wireless was, of course, knocked out when I did the reset, and will be until I can figure out how to get to the console.
Question 2, what do you think about having unreachable websites? WRT had the same subnet mask as primary before reset, and I suspect it still has. Wired devices are assigned IPs and use the primary as a gateway as per instructions here: http://www.tweaktown.com/articles/1575/using_an_old_router_as_a_diy_wireless_access_point/index3.htm...
I am most grateful for any thoughts.

As you are unable to access certain websites out of which some are secured websites .
I think you can try to reduce the security settings medium-level on your Internet Explorer .
Also make sure the port 443 is opened on the router .
What is the current firmware version on your router ?

Problems to reach some websites

Hi,
I'm asking for your help about a problem I have been struggling with for about a month.
Background information:
- 3 client computers (2 on Windows Seven, 1 on XP),
- 1 Windows 2012 server (AD service active)
- ASA 5505 router for the WAN connection (Orange as provider)
- PPPoe Authentication used with DSL provider box set in modem mode
Problem:
All clients except ONE (on Windows seven) have problems to reach some websites. Some work well, but for others, it keeps waiting for the connection until a timeout error message.
The clients affected are also unable to update the virus database.
Using an anonymizer service as anype.com, I can finally reach the websites that timed out...
The affected clients use the same DHCP as the one that works.
Sending a ping from the affected clients to the unusable websites gives the good ip adress.
Using an external laptop which works well on another network on this network gives the same symptoms.
I can see no configuration differences between clients and even reinstalled one of them from scratch without more success.
Did someone experienced this kind of problem? I'm running out of ideas!!!
Thanks in davance for your help

PPPoE will add 8 bytes and IPsec VPN will add as much as 80 bytes to the original packet. So the packet will be larger than MTU down the path between client and server. but those packets maybe set df-bit, so ICMP type 3 code 4 (packet need fragment but df-bit set)will send back to the originator, but sometimes it can not reach the originator due to FW block or ACL or packet drop. so the connection will be timeout.
Workaround: configure 'ip tcp adjust-mss 1360' on WAN router (here FW), make sure all the WEB access can work, then you can increase 1360 to bigger number until you reach a balance.
Some WEB server did not honor MSS advertised by client side during TCP 3-way handshaking, it will result in packet from server side will need to be fragmented down the path to client, if DF-bit set, it also cause session timeout.

After upgrading to Mavericks, some websites won't load (using wifi)?

Hey guys,
I upgraded my Macbook Pro to Mavericks last December. I had some problems when loading some websites (such as eBay, Society6, etc) while I was at home using my home wifi in Indonesia. It's like, sometimes these websites won't load, but sometimes they do.
I've tried different browsers and it's still the same. I thought, it was just the wifi at my home in Indonesia that's problematic, because at work (using cable), the internet's just fine. But THEN, I am now here in Australia, I don't usually have problems with my aprtment's wifi at all, but now it's doing that thing. Some websites won't load properly or won't load at all. I realized that this is most likely has something to do with my laptop (ie. upgrading to Mavericks. I've never had this problem before), because the wifi works just fine with my smartphone and my iPod.
Has anyone encountered similar problem? How do you fix this?
Thanks so much,
S

Hello sharlegit
Try creating a new network location and test to see if the same thing happens of certain websites not working.

Cannot reach some websites problem and workaround

Hi, Problem: Through a linksys router, whether standard firmware or dd-wrt, the router allows some web pages to work, whereas others are inaccessible. They just hang and time out. Affects both wired and wireless. The router is the problem as evidenced that all web sites work fine when plugged directly into the internet, bypassing the router. I looked on several forums and the suggestions seemed to be things like: - modify your MTU value - check the firmware/upgrade - reset to the default settings The responses on these threads show most of these methods do not work. I have even seen some people replacing their boxes after talking to Linksys support about this issue. Anyway, I had this issue with V4 WRT-54G with dd-wrt.v23 SP2. What I did to stop the problem occuring was: disable dnsmasq I am not sure linksys standard firmware lets you disable dnsmasq? DNS masquerading is when your router clients will send their dns queries to the router, and the router will forward them on to the ISP dns server. With dnsmasq turned off, the clients will send their queries directly to the ISP dns themselves. I tried this after noticing that the web sites I could reach, I could not resolve through the router, whereas they resolved fine with the ISP's dns server. I also noticed that the sites that tended not to work were big sites that have things like akamai on the back like windowsupdate. So now the clients are sending their DNS queries directly to the ISP dns, and opendns as backup. And that works fine. I wish I had come accross a post like this several hours of troubleshooting back.

HI,
Open Keychain Access (Applications/Utilities)
Select Passwords on the left. Then delete the username on the right.
When you logon to a site using a username and password that information is saved to the Keychain Access application.

Some websites won't load on Safari or Firefox

Hi all!
I have problems reaching some websites(http://www.insee.fr is a good example), using both Firefox and Safari, using a couple of Macs. The webpage keeps loading but nothing actually happens.
I used an iMac running on 10.4.11 using Firefox 3.5 and Safari 4.0.4 and a MacBook running on 10.5, using Firefox 3.4 and Safari 4.0.4.
I suspected an ISP-related issue at first, as the "problem" webpages will load up fine on the MacBook at another location, and using another ISP. However, I've reached those websites at home on an old PC running on XP and using Firefox 2!
So where is the problem?
The websites?
The ISP?
The browsers?
The computers?
Thank you in advance for your ideas!
Claude C

HI Claude,
Try Open DNS - Free / Basic
For trouble shooting purposes, please take a moment and click My Settings on the right side of this page and tell us about your Macs and which Mac OS X they are running. This way you have a forum profile set up.
Thanks!

Some websites (google account f.e) suddenly became very small

After touching the touchscreen some websites (not all!!) became very small in the window/on the screen - don't know how to resolve this problem

Yeap, that fixed it. Thanks a lot, you're really good at this :)

Trouble reaching websites after 10.5.5 update

Hi,
I recently updated OSX to 10.5.5. As soon as I did, I could no longer reach any websites. I did power down/reboots of my modem, router and mac mini. I cleared my DNS cache. In the end it turned out that my mini was having problems with the DNS servers. It wasn't reversing DNS requests. I could access websites by their numeric IP but not their host name. I set up my machine to use the OpenDNS.com DNS servers, and it works now EXCEPT for the sites I tried to access while using my ISP's DNS servers.
For the life of me, I can't get these sites to work. Maybe my DNS cache isn't actually clearing?
My PC and iPhone work fine. The site I'm trying to reach (flickr.com) won't respond to ping from my mini, but it will respond to pings from my router.
Please help, I'd really like to use flickr from my mini.

I also experienced significant problems after the upgrade to 10.5.5. My DNS server was a win2k3 DNS server. If I would use a public DNS server like OpenDNS or AT&T things would operate just fine. After a tcpdump I was seeing SRV record requests were going unanswered. And finally after a timeout (of 15sec - 2min) DNS would request the A record and things would work fine.
To solve my problem, I unbound from Active Directory and rebound to my Active Directory server. After that I was seeing SRV record being replied to and domain replies were working.
Obviously your situation might be different since you are having problem with your ISP server, but I thought I would share a possible resolution for other experiencing similar slow DNS replies.

Some websites broken in all browsers after Lion upgrade

After upgrading from 10.6.8, some websites are not loading properly in any web browser (latest versions of Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Opera). The pages appear as just text, with no images or css. This is happening in both 10.7.2 and 10.7.3. Example sites are:
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/
http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/
I've seen this issue on two machines.
I've tried the following with no success:
- booting in safe mode
- creating a new user account
- repairing permissions
- deleting caches
- resetting browsers
- resetting network settings
- disabling all items in /Library/LaunchAgents, /Library/LaunchDaemons, /Library/Internet Plug-Ins, /Library/InputManagers
Other machines on which I've done a clean install don't have this issue. Obviously I could just do that on the affected machines, but if there's a simple fix that would be much better.

I did get them to show up by opening an old project file with a missing instrument in it and when I click on that track, boom, all of the missing instruments showed up. But I wonder what the command is to get GB to "rescan" for the real instruments.

Wrt54G v7 some websites without color/images, needs reset.

Since i upgraded lastest firmware i need to reset router once in a while because some websites dont load good, or no websites at all are loading or loading very slow.
example:
http://imageupload.org/?d=C26AB5E61
I want to go back to old firmware or a solution for this problem.. any ideas ?

It seems like after the firmware upgrade you have not tried to reset and reconfigure the router as should have done....
Still, that can be made to work, try to access the router set up page http://192.168.1.1 with username = blank and password = admin....Go to the option on the first screen that says MTU - select the option as manual and reduce the size from 1500 to 1400....

Unable to load some websites after an update to IOS6

I am unable to load some websites in both Safari and Google Chrome. This did not bother me until I found at that I cannot access some websites I can access before and frequent. I am unsure if this was caused by the update to ios6, but this incident only happened after the update. I am unsure as well if this is related to the problem of me unable to connect to itunes and app store after the update. I've fixed those by changing my DNS to 8.8.8.8 and changing the time trick. I've also noticed that twitter and some apps crashed a lot. I have no problem connecting to the wifi though. Thank you in advance.

Some additional details I have also noticed. Some images will not show or appears as a blue and white question mark in some websites. Even here in apple website.

I downloaded ios7 and now some apps won't open even after resetting them. Don't won't to lose my info by deleting them and starting over. What to do?

After installing CC, The font on some websites has changed in my browser Google Chrome. Help!

After installing CC, The font on some websites has changed in my browser Google Chrome. Help!
take for example facebook & ebay, the fonts have changed to a distorted block type font, very un-readable, Only after I installed adobe CC, this took place...
I am using google chrome
Can any one help me?
I have tried to fix it by tinkering with some settings in google chrome but had no luck!
here is a screenshot of the problem:

Unless a web page uses a “web font” that it supplies itself, web pages typically provide a list of fonts, in priority order, of fonts to be used to render text. Typically, this list of fonts represents “system fonts” of MacOS, Windows, iOS, and Android - fonts that can be counted on being installed. Helvetica Neue is a MacOS system font that is not typically found on Windows systems. And even if a user licenses recent versions of Helvetica Neue OpenType fonts and installs same on Windows systems, they are in the “Helvetica Neue Std” family which would not match “Helvetica Neue” which is native to MacOS. Thus, I suspect that the Helvetica Neue you have installed on Windows is an older font offering.
There are three issues here:
The first is that web pages provide a priority list for font usage. I suspect that the web pages you are seeing Helvetica Neue actually used on your system are requesting fonts in the order of Helvetica Neue and then Arial. The typical MacOS system would display the content with Helvetica Neue and the typical Windows system would display the content with Arial. Since you have Helvetica Neue on your system, you are getting rendering similar to what a MacOS system would have.
The second issue is that there is no way to force a web page to reverse the order of priority of the fonts it lists.
And finally, the third issue is that there is no way to hide a font selectively by application.
The only way you can avoid Helvetica Neue being used on web pages preferring Helvetica Neue to let's say Arial or any other font on its list for particular text rendering is to uninstall Helvetica Neue.
That having been said, other than perhaps personal type design preferences, are there any other issues with regards to use of Helvetica Neue for display of these web pages?

Why do some videos from some website stop working after seconds or minutes on a new iPad

I subscribe to some website posting videos. The videos will start as it should and then stop after, sometimes seconds, and sometimes minutes after the beginning.
The iPad is less than 3 weeks old. it is already the second. The first was a 16 GB this one is a 32 GB. no difference. This issue does not happen with only one website but other posted videos from other websites.

This and other answers helped me to understand better why I cannot view these videos and search for answers. I found that the videos posted by this website end in .cfm, and doing research cfm is Adobe and is not compatible with apple software ? why this is not resolved is surprising to me - Several other people experience the same issue as I (dating 2007-to 2013) I am not computer literate but I know how to find information on the web and know +or - how to use the programs. There seems to be nothing that will convert these videos into a format that the iPad could process and allow. should I buy quicktime for my windows device and transfer/sync it to the ipad (?)(3 weeks old I paid $900) will this work. I have tried to upgrade the firmware to my router but no luck there either; even following all the steps religiously. the unzip is not working? I get a file the upgrade button rejects.
if it is this cfm format that is doing that, then there is no reason to spend x$ into a new router : the issue will remain the same- is this statement correct ?
your help is greatly appreciated.

Some websites, like Amazon and Shutterstock became garbled after I updated Java.

Some websites, like Amazon and Shutterstock show up completely garbled. I suspect problems with Javascript, and I'm pretty sure the issue started after I updated Java. I did all the troubleshooting tips listed on this site, and none helped. I booted Firefox without extensions and the problem prevailed. I don't know what else to do.
Mac OS 10.6.8, Java up to date, Firefox 12.0

hello, can you try to clear cache, cookies & history for the affected sites as it is described here: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Websites%20say%20cookies%20are%20blocked#w_clear-history-for-that-site]
in case this doesn't resolve the issue, also go through the other troubleshooting steps of [[Websites look wrong]]. thank you.
