Xbox Live issues - can anyone help

Hello - I am hoping someone can help me out with some Xbox Live connection issues that are driving me crazy. (Please bear in mind that I am a novice with these issues).
I am attempting to connect to XBox Live via the Xbox wireless adapter and the WRT54GS router. I have the router hardwired via ethernet port to a desktop computer. Here are the problems:
1. The connection is very weak and spotty, with frequent disconnects. I would say that I get a successful connection to Xbox live about half the time. The failure message seems to be different every time. At best, I get only one red bar on the Xbox Network Settings. Usually, I have to unplug and re-plug in the router to get online.
2. I tried to help the connection by buying a wireless range expander. However, when the range expander is plugged in, either I am unable to connect or it connects but I am unable to download any updates or content or marketplace runs very slowly. I assume there is some configuration problem with the expander, but I have no idea how to fix it.
3. Even when I am connected, if my wife turns on her laptop I get disconnected.
4. When I call Xbox support, they tell me it is a problem with the router. When I call Linksys they tell me it is a problem with Xbox Live.
Can anyone help? I have read a couple of posts about setting static IP addresses and opening ports, but I don't know how to do this. And would it even help?
Thank you!!!

hi... logon to router's setup page, open I.E. and in the address bar type 192.168.1.1 it would ask for username and password, put "admin" (default password) as a password, try changing channel to 11, go to advanced wireless settings reduce beacon interval to 50, fragmentation and RTS threshold to 2304, change Transmission rate to 54Mbps, also try upgrading latest firmware on the router, go to www.linksys.com/download and download the latest firmware for the router, logon router's setup page again and click on "administration" >> firmware upgrade and try upgrading latest firmware...
click on "application & gamings" tab...and try triggering 88, 3074 ports on the router for X-Box...reduce MTU to 1365 on the router.

We need to optimize FMS for smooth live streaming can anyone help?

So we are coming across the same problem over and over again. I called Adobe FMS tech support and they assisted us to achieve what we need, but we are having two main issues.
First, we need to allow live, clear, and smooth video broadcasting with FMS so we implemented dynamic bandwidth detection so the system can automatically detect a users specifications and adjust video accordingly. This has worked better for us but we are coming across two main issues; first, the video is now very pixilated, and second, we are still get a pause or delay in movement from the stream every 4 seconds or so.
We are looking to get similar video quality as seen on the justin.tv live broadcasting site. I know this video detection and quality is achievable, but not sure what values we need to put in or are missing?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve

I'm interested in doing something similar - bridging FMS to a
an Asterisk conference. I know breeze has this capability, does
anyone know if this can be done using FMS?

HT204053 I have recently changed my apple id email address, which was ok however I have recently changed my password and now I have icloud account/sign-in issues, can anyone help?

I changed my apple id email address last week, not a problem I just entered the correct info on my 6 apple devices for FaceTime, AppStore and iTunes.
The issue now, is that I have changed my appleid password so that the kids couldn't install any apps and charge my credit card.
Now I am getting an icloud authorisation error, it is telling me that the account (old apple id) or password are incorrect.
What have I done and how can I fix it?
Do I have to 'delete account' on my iphone and add a new one? I have just paid for the max icloud storage plan as well.

I FOUND THE SOLUTION!
I had the same exact problem. I had my old apple ID connected to a school email which did not exist anymore. My ipad was prompting me to put the password in for that ID and I could not delete it from my ipad because the "Find My Ipad" was turned on, once again prompting for password. I called apple and they said this Apple no longer exists and is not in there system, which I knew already. After hours on the phone nobody could help me. Try this.
-Go to create a new Apple ID and use the same email address as the old apple ID which is locked in on your ipad
-Create a new password and all that, it will say it send a verification link to your email, in my case my email no longer exists so I could not do this
- I called Apple to explain this problem and I asked if they could verify it for me, which they did after I convinced them it was worth a try. The guy told me that the verification shouldnt matter and should still be able to login but he did it anyway. You can try skipping this step but if it doesn't work then go ahead.
-Go to ICloud and click on your account, the email should be grayed out but it should allow you to change that password, put in the new password which you just created.
-This allowed me to sign in to accept the new terms and conditions but it said "unable to conncet to server" so I just backed out and went to "Delete Account" and it worked!
The whole idea is to re-create your old apple ID into Apple's system and then use that new password. The guy at Apple said tons of people called about this problem and nobody could solve it. I thanked him for helping me and he thanked me for helping him. I hope this helps you!

Flash to SIP live video - can anyone help?

We are looking for a simple solution that enables a 2-way
video call between a SIP client and a browser-based Flash client
(which grabs the webcam).
Does anyone have any ideas as to where we should look? Does
anyone want to build this for us for a fee?
Help appreciated - this is an immediate requirement so let me
know if you'd like more details around this.

Interface issues - can anyone help?

Hi there,
I'm having issues with a trial version of InDesign I just installed - namely the document and toolbox scrollbars don't work and neither do some of the dropdown menus. I can scroll using the mousewheel for the document window (although it's not ideal), but that doesn't work for the toolboxes. The dropdowns I've had problems with are the ones in the toolbars - the menu items work fine.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
I'm running it on Windows Vista and I've tried trashing my preferences already. I don't think I can uninstall/reinstall because it's a trial copy?
One thing I've noticed is that the interface is much larger in InDesign CS5 than it is in my CS4 programs - could this be something to do with the UI resolution? If so, can I do anything to change that?
Thanks in advance!

Set your fonts and icons back to default or turn off Aero.

The figures you mention only make sense on your intranet. Are you still using the same wireless router. The verizon one is somewhat limited as far as max wireless-n performace. For one thing it only has a 2.4 radio. I like many people who wanted wireless-n performance before they even added a wireless-n gigabit router, have my own handling my wireless-n network.

While updating iphone software to 5.0.1, I am getting error that Iphone could not be updated because the firmware file not compatible.
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.

Using iTunes 10.5.2.11 on a PC running 64 bit Windows 7
First did a full back up of iphone using iTunes
Put iphone into Recovery Mode ( http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 ). Erases all user data and settings!
Disconnected USB cable from iphone
Powered off iphone by holding down Sleep/Off button until slider appeared, slid to off, waited until screen dark
Pressed and kept holding Home button while plugging cable back into phone
I still saw the graphic on the iphone that said to plug into iTunes, so I unplugged and re-plugged cable. (I may have released the Home button too soon)
Recovery Mode alert came up in iTunes.
Followed all iTunes prompts to restore phone - it downloaded and sucessfully installed iOS 5.0.1
iphone did not appear in iTunes due to missing pairing file (that made me nervous)
iphone was now at factory settings. I followed prompts on iphone screen to start reactivation process
Eventually the iphone asked if I wanted to restore from a back-up (whew!)
A window opened in iTunes and I was able to select my previous back-up file for the restore
A full restore from back-up then occured
I also allowed a carrier settings update to occur when prompted (not sure that happens in all cases)
When the restore was done I had to re-enter some passwords, but everything was there
iOS is now 5.0.1 (9A406). The whole process took about an hour.

Restore the iPhone when connected to iTunes by cable.
Still the same TS1275?
Is your iPhone jailbroken?
Or
Has your computer ever been used to jailbrake or downgrade (Tinyumbrella) any iPhone?
