WRTG54T - Constant Have to Reset the Router

Hello - I have a WRTG54T Wireless Router. I have my Dell Lattitude (that is wired) to the Router as well as a Dell Lattitude D600 connected wirlessly. I recently downloaded Norton Internet Security and now, while it shows my router is working, I need to reset my router a few times a week - even 2-3 times a day. This never happened before I downloaded Norton. So - I dont know if this is a coincidence or what. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks - Rob

Norton Internet Security sometimes block wireless internet access... try to find a way (usually there is a setting in it) that will allow you to connect wirelessly w/out any issues... if not try to change the wireless channel of the router to 11...

Iphone 4 and Ipad 2 internet problems?

This worked for me on iPhone 4S and iPad 2:
Settings -> General -> Restore -> Restore network settings
After the device restart, I logged in my wifi network without any problem.

Have to reset the Apple TV each time I open it. Is it possible it is the result of recent transfer to iCloud?

Each morning when I open CalmRadio on my Surround System which come from iTune through Apple TV I have to reset the Apple TV to get the signal through. I tought it was the result of a recent change of my router but I just remember that I have installed iCloud recently. Would it be possible that would be the reason of the necessity to reset apple TV every morning? Thanks.

I'd say your router, iCloud hasn't caused me any problems. It may be settings or interference.
Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first.

Download connections doesn't close after I cancel the download, it keep like I am download and only close when I disable the network adapter or reset the router or the firewall

download connections doesn't close after I cancel the download, it keep like I am downloading and only close when I disable the network adapter or reset the router or the firewall.
I use pfsense as my firewall and see the traffic not reseting to zero when I cancel download.
Also, IE doesn't have this problem. When I cancel the download the traffic drops to zero.

And this problem seems to be systemwide. Since I created a new user and under which problem still exists.
Hope apple will look into it

The wi-fi button on my iPad 2 is not functioning. I have tried resetting the network, worked for 5 minutes. Am not able to connect to internet to reset to factory. What else can I do?

The wi-fi button on my iPad 2 is not functioning. I have tried resetting the network, worked for 5 minutes. Am not able to connect to internet to reset to factory. What else can I do?

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at
http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

Unable to connect to Airport Extreme on a daily basis without reseting the router

I have an Airport Extreme Router connected directly to my cable modem. My Airport Utilities are current and router is set to 7.5.2 firmware (latest). I have nine devices set to connect via wireless and three that are connected via cable. I am not using the 5ghz as there are some older devices that will not connect. On a daily basis all of the wireless systems will not connect. I get a password incorrect on low signal error. I have reset the password from over eight characters to eight to see if that was the issue. No dice. I have to manually unplug the router and the wait for it to reset then all the devices will connect. The three devices I have connected directly do not have this issue.
I have deleted the network configurations from the devices and tried to reconnect but I get the same error, password incorrect or signal not found even when it shows that I have five green bars. I have the router set to assign DHCP and changed the lease to 60 days. Since the router does not have UPnP, I have a few ports open to allow my XBox and PS3 clear connection. I have also reset the whole router and started it from scratch. Rebuilding the network with a different name, password and such.
I have seen on the board that others are having issues with this. Aside from disconnecting the power from the router I have not found a solution. This issue started a month or so ago. Does anyone have a solution? Is this a result of updating the firmware to 7.5.2 which came out in July? Or is there something that I am completely missing in troubleshooting?

The router has been working for a bout a year or more. Would it suddenly go snafu and need to be replaced? Seems to me it would be having the issue from the start.

Have to reset my router to recovery wifi signal and re boot face time on iphone4s.

Have to reset my router to recovery wifi signal and re boot face time on iphone4s.
Scenario1:
1/ Mac Pro. Iphone4s connected to my home wifi
2/ Face time call coming
3/ Pick up by Mac Pro.
No issue found.
Scenario2:
1/ Mac Pro. Iphone4s connected to my home wifi
2/ Face time call coming
3/ Pick up by Iphone4s.
4/ call auto drop off within 1 min chatting
5/ Wifi signal on both iphone4s and Mac Pro were found gone
6/ Reset router ( always show “cannot join XX network” unless reset router at least 1 time)
7/ Wifi signal will available after 5 ~10mins,
8/ Face time via iphone4S again, almost no problem….
Suppose it is a compatibility issue of iphone4s and TP-link router?
I already suffered the iphone4S face time drop off issue for more than 2 week… Hope it can be fixed soon….

I agree with @sabretooth. The connection status showing 100Mbps is only the local Ethernet network speed and since your router uses the Wireless-G technology, then you can get a maximum of 54Mbps for the wireless network speed. This network speed is significant when communicating within the local network of the router but it is still the 10Mbps internet subscription speed that is used when sending and receiving data or information through the internet.
It seems you’re experiencing a dropping connection and it would be better to isolate the issue before buying another router. Connect a computer wired directly to your Arris modem and observe the connection. If connection is good then it will give you a hint that it’s a possible router issue. You can then press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds, power cycle, reconfigure the internet connection and check if the problem persists.

How can I stop the fan from running continuously on my iMac? I have tried resetting the SMC and this did not work.

I have a 27 in. iMac OS X, Version 10.7.5, Intel Core i5 and have a problem with the very loud and annoying fan running continuously. The fan starts up immediately upon powering up and stays on all the time. I have researched this on the internet and have tried resetting the SMC unsuccessfully. Should I try fan control software?

To reset the SMC means to reset the power management settings for your Mac. To do this, follow these simple steps.
1) Shutdown your Mac by going to the Apple Logo in the upper left hand corner of the screen and selecting "Shut Down" from the drop down menu.
2) Turn your machine back on while continuing to hold down the power button.
3) After the initial boot chime, your power indicator light should flash three times.
4) Your screen will remain black and you will hear the boot chime again. At this point, you may release the power button and allow your Mac to boot up normally.
All the best with getting your Mac Mini to run smoothly.

Just got a new IPAD3, straight out of the box, but I cant charge it, I have tried with the power plug and cable out of the box but no joy, i have tried resetting the iPad but still no joy, have tried different plug sockets, different plugs/cables, help

Just got a new IPAD3, straight out of the box, but I cant charge it, I have tried with the power plug and cable out of the box that came with it but no joy, i have tried resetting the iPad but still no joy, have tried different mains plug sockets around the house with no joy, I have tried different USB mains plugs but again no joy, I tried using my new iPad cable into the USB port of my MacBook Pro laptop but still no joy, then, I tried using my old iPod classic cable into my MacBook Pro and that worked, so I have a way of charging my new iPad3 but its not practical as i have to take my MacBook Pro everywhere if I want to charge it which kind of defeats the object of having an iPad, has anybody experienced anything similar and how was it fixed? can anybody help me please...

Grumpy Gator,
Please note it did say at the store's discretion, but people have actually been able to return it to the on-line store. (I only saw a couple who tried.)
And given the outcry, I would think Apple might have other Apple stores join in. Just in case, though, if you can, you might bring it in today.
If it's an ARS, my guess is they can stick to their 14 day return. Apple cannot force them to do it. SO if it's not bought directly from Apple, and it's past the 14 day deal, I'd bring it in to the store today if you have one. When I gave people the cnet.com site, I gave it so people could read it and know only Apple had made the decision for Apple. And I suggested to some that an Apple reseller would probably stick with their own return policy.
Because Arnie had just bought his, he should be able to return it to Apple or an ARS because an ARS has to have some kind of full refund or at least return for credit within 7 or 14 days of purchase.
Hope this helps.

Recently when I sync my iPhone the Albums banner covers the camera roll selector and then I have to reset the phone to correct it. Why does this happen?

All of a sudden now when I sync my iphone and then look at photo's the "albums" banner is covering the camera roll selector making it unable to be accessed. So then I have to reset the phone and go through all of my settings and reset them to where they were before the reset. I'm not sure what's causing this, but the only thing that was different was that I had over 100 pictures in the camera roll. Has anyone experienced anything like this?
Thanks

This seems to be a common problem. The only fix I know of is to double-tap the home button to bring up the recently used apps bar. Find the Photos app. Tap and hold until a red x appears. Tap the X to close the app. Then tap the home button again. The Photos app should work normally when you next use it.
I hope you transfer your camera roll photos to your computer. This explains how: Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch to your computer, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

EA6350 not accept the default password "admin" no matter I reset the router device.

Hello,
I just brought a new router EA6350 and it does not accept the 'admin' to login the router. I did reset the router and can ping 192.168.1.1. Also able to go into the login screen. But the default password: admin was not success to login.
Please help
Solved!
Go to Solution.

To isolate the issue:
Disconnect everything from the EA6350
Connect your computer to the EA6350 LAN Port
Make sure your computer wireless is disconnected or disabled
Connect to the router using this link http://192.168.1.1
If the router was reset to factory default you should be present a setup screen instead of a login screen
