Yet another stuck profile?

I think I too have a stuck profile. When I first connected using this modem/router (8 months or so) I was getting between 12 and 15 Mbps. about three months ago it dropped (gradually) down to its present speed. I recently renewed my contract and was told I should be getting around 14Mbps.
I have run all the line tests and they too indicate I should be receiving about 14Mbps. I have tried connecting direct to the socket and done the noise tests and everything else suggested on the forum.
I have included the speed test results plus the stats from my modem. Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks

  • Another stuck profile :-)

    Hi all,
    My first post on here.  I have noticed a slowdown in my download speeds recently after moving my Home Hub. Previously it was linked to an internal extension upstairs and I was getting around 6 megabit download speeds quite consistently. I decided to move it downstairs and connect it to the master socket, and since then my speeds have been between 1.7 and 1.9 megabits.
    I ran a speed test on 19th August and got these results:
    Download speed achieved during the test was -1745 Kbps
    For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 400-2000 Kbps.
    Additional Information:
    Your DSL Connection Rate :8128 Kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 448 Kbps(UP-STREAM)
    IP Profile for your line is - 2000 Kbps
    I checked my internal extensions and there is no audible noise or crackling, but just in case I connected the home hub (via the adsl filter) to the test socket and rebooted the hub.  I expected the profile to improve from 2000 Kbps to something much closer to my connection speed, but four days later it is still stubbornly stuck at 2000 Kbps.
    A speed test just now gives the following results:
    Download speed achieved during the test was - 1928 Kbps
    For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 400-2000 Kbps.
    Additional Information:
    Your DSL Connection Rate :8128 Kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 448 Kbps(UP-STREAM)

    I don't think the downstream noise margin is too high (but disappointingly above 6db) so I would expect better than a 2000 Kbps profile speed. 
    Any thoughts on how I can get the profile reset?  I think it is stuck at the moment.
    Many thanks,
    Mark.
    Solved!

    your noise margin if ok as you have the max speed for adslmax - you have noise margin in hand which is good for when you get upgraded to 21CN
    your profile is stuck so email the mods for help  http://bt.custhelp.com/app/contact_email/c/4951

  • Yet another MacBook Pro with display issues (NVdia chip)

    Exactly one year and 1 week after purchase, my video controller started freaking out. So just 1 week out of warranty, my display started flickering, blinking, showing garbled clumps of pixels and got progressively worse over the last week until, now, it locks up and/or reboots after about 15 minutes of uptime.
    I have:
    - installed all updates, including firmware
    - reset PRAM
    - re-seated RAM
    - replaced RAM
    - used SMC FanControl to try and keep the GPU cool
    - parked the MacBook in front of the fan/air conditioner in an attempt to keep the GPU cool
    - ran the Hardware Test, which returned a faulty video controller
    None of the above have had any positive effect whatsover.
    I've dug through these forums and hunted around the rest of the net for more info. Every symptom points to the NVidia GeForce issue. It seemed to be heat related. Maybe it was at first (even though max temps were never over 180 F), but after just one more day it doesn't seem to matter anymore. The machine is just FUBAR.
    Tomorrow, I'm taking it in to the Apple store for service. Everything I've read here tells me it'll be at $1,000 logic board replacement since I'm a week out of warranty. Needless to say, if I come home tomorrow with a $1,000 receipt AND no laptop I'm going to be pretty upset.
    What really concerns me is that, if I have to get the logic board replaced, they'll just put in yet another faulty board with another NVdia chip that will do the same thing all over again. There has to be another option, short of just getting a new iMac or tower with an ATI card instead. What else can I do?

    http://noizesurge.com/downloads/gpu2.jpg - incidentally my computer had completely frozen at this point.
    I'm pretty sure from observing these types of glitches that this is a hardware fault. I shall ring Apple on Monday and hopefully they can pick it up and sort it all out! Does anyone know roughly how long a turnaround is in the UK?
    Yes, your video controller is toast. That's exactly how mine looked.
    Just to make certain, run the Hardware Test:
    - Put in DVD 1 that came with your MacBook Pro.
    - Shut down
    - Restart, holding the D key
    - You'll be put into test mode, run the default test (no need to run the robust test at this stage)
    I'm betting it will return a message that looks like: "4VDC/1/40000003: videocontroller"
    If so, your logic board will have to be replaced.
    The Apple Store I went to (Michigan Ave, Chicago) told me it would take 5-7 days. I'm not sure what UK times would be like, but I'd expect a little longer.
    bikemonkey wrote:
    Incidentally, people are saying that they've have logic boards and what not replaced only for the problem to reoccur. Does this mean nVidia haven't properly fixed the issue?
    Correct. Nvidia hasn't done a thing about this (that I'm aware of), and Apple seems to be putting the same logic boards with the faulty Nvidia chips back in.
    Until we see a new/refreshed line of MacBook Pro's, I think we're stuck.

  • Stuck profile and pretty sick of liars

    Ok, after a powercut on Monday (which was widespread in Co Down), my profile is back on the same, pathetic. "up to 2000kps" profile that it ALWAYS goes on if there is even a hint of thunder or a blip in the electric..
     Download speedachieved during the test was - 1842 Kbps
     For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 400-2000 Kbps.

    I have been on this forum innumerable times with exactly the same problem...as I am very busy and have a digger hired out, I decided to phone the "special" no that India gave me if such a stuck profile happened again (LOL)...
    After spending 15mins on the phone to some advisor in India (neither of us could understand each other as I have an Irish accent) trying to explain what a stuck profile was, the advisor was able to see I have had this problem many times before (OH really...duh!!)..
    He lied and said they were doing "advanced" tests on my line and they could see no problem...LIAR!!!
    Then He said they had reset the profile and it will take 7 days and I will Never have this problem again...LIAR!!
    I understand broad band and DLM and it is far too aggressive and is obvously not fit for purpose...I pay for up to 8meg,,,not up to 2meg...
    I am really sick of the incompetent LIARS who run their "customer" service...anyone who has been around a while will know that the only way I've got this fixed in the past is to contact the CEO...This time, however, I have had enough and think I'm out of contract,,,I will be requesting my mac code and will be leaving this Internet  Provider
    ASAP and will make sure to tell everyone I know about this!!!!!!

    I have a long rural line as well and while I can't solve all your issues I can suggest a few things perhaps
    firstly the power issue, have you looked to setting your router on a UPS? most use kettle sockets so you would need to make an adapter but Belkin do some that have normal sockets. Would not last long but does filter and smooth out issues with the power and if you just have the router on it even a fairlly small model would give you a fair while, mine certainly last way longer than I takes me to fire up the backup generator.
    Fixed profiles may well be a solution for you but should the line be upgraded at any stage you may then loose out.
    You might also see if BT will check that you are on the best pair possible, for example where I am there are no spare pairs but further back nearer the exchange there is a 50 pair 0.9 cable about 1km in length and onlly about 10 lines were switched to it as of yet (mine included) and that made a huge difference to my service when I got it done in 2006 after a nearer section had been downgraded during a replacement.
    I am told that if you can get any section swapped from /5 to .6 then that is even better than the same length of .6 being changed to .9 but either way any up in conductor size tends to be a huge help.
    BTW would strongly suggest you try using a BT business hub not the netgear, I have tried many routers including the netgear but the business hub seems to have something extra that helps my line a lot, I now tend to get a steady noise margin during the day rather than frequent fluctuations, I suspect it is impluse noise protection but may be wrong there. Worth getting one of ebay to try.

  • After having yet another problem with my MacBook Pro and having to wipe the drive, I am now unable to sync my iPhones etc without erasing all the music on them. Is there a way around this? I have no other library!

    After having yet another problem with my MacBook Pro and having to wipe the drive, I am now unable to sync my iPhones etc without erasing all the music on them. Is there a way around this? I have no other library!
    iTunes is a mess! It couldn't find it's own libraries and I was forced to create a new one. Now I don't know where my music is or if any's missing.

    It's not crap at all.
    It's not that simple. For example, I've 3500 songs on my MacBook but don't want them all on my phone, so I have to manually select each song again???
    There has to be a solution.
    Why not simply make a playlist with the songs you want on the iPhone?
    and maintain a current backup of your computer.

  • Is this yet another problem with 7.5 or is it just me . . .

    Upgrade seemed to be fine, at first . . . now I keep getting distortion on songs. It seems to be quite random and just because a song has been distorted when I've listened to it once doesn't mean it will be when I listen to it again! It's driving me insane. Is this yet another bug or have I done something wrong (apart from upgrading to 7.5).

    Hi Emlou,
    If you have a Windows based operating system such as XP -
    It seems to me that you are suffering what I am having the same problem with - the program takes up to much of your computer's processing usage. If you go into your task manager and watch performance as ITunes runs - you will see how much of the total computer usage it is taking at any given moment - that's why your songs are distorted, slowing, garbled, etc - the usage on mine spikes from 11% - 93% AT ANY GIVEN MINUTE! I have no idea why, but I have found that by going to your "Control Panel" and clicking on Quicktime you can adjust audio output to help. Click the audio tab, click Safe Mode Wavout only (checkbox) / Then adjust the "Rate" to 96kHz / Then adjust the "Size" to 16 bit. Close that and shut down and restart Itunes - it might help a little for you.
    Maybe someone out there can help us find out why we are suffering with all the CPU usage trouble and how to adjust that spiking.
    Thanks!

  • Yet another No Service iPhone 4, second hand

    Hi all,
    Apologies for yet another topic about the No Service issue on the iPhone 4. I bought a secondhand iPhone 4 16GB 2 days ago after having a 3GS 32GB for 18 months with no problems. iPhone 4 was just over a week old when I bought it (warranty date shows when it was first activated), on the O2 UK network like my old one.
    All was fine for 2 days, was receiving and making calls and texts etc with no problems. But since late afternoon yesterday the phone has mostly said No Service. It occasionally goes onto O2-UK but with no bars of signal so calls and texts still fail immediately.
    I've tried all of the tips I can find online to resolve this, airplane mode on/off, reset network settings, restore from backup, restore as new phone, hard resets. But nothing's working.
    I can take out my SIM and put it into my 3GS, in the same location, and get 5 bars of signal, all my texts come through. Then put SIM back into iPhone 4 and straight away, No Service.
    I've made a Genius bar appointment for tomorrow afternoon, but I'm wondering what happens regarding the fact that I'm not the person who bought the phone in the first place? Will this be an issue?
    Thank you in advance for any advice about this, was so looking forward to having this phone and now, bleh!

    I spoke to o2, they checked my SIM is activated and said they don't need a record of my IMEI number. Still saying No Service so will have to see what the "Genius" says tomorrow!

  • Yet another Mac Book Pro (A1211/2.33 GHz) freeze problem

    Hi everyone,
    I have yet another freeze mystery, if people fancy having a crack at it.
    I had this notebook for about 4 and a half years and it served me well until 2 months ago. It is a 15' MBP from December 2008 (A1211) with a 2.33GHz Core 2 Duo and 2GB of RAM.
    Now I constantly get lags or freezes while I am using it.It manifests itself via the beachball and a frozen screen. First, I thought it was the hard drive but I replaced it with a tested new one and I still get the same behaviour. The reason I thought it was the HD is that it seems to freeze often when there was a lot of access to HD or memory. For example, firefox would cause a freeze quite often when it was trying to access the cache or history. I get the same behaviour when trying indexing my music for the genius feature. Often when I close applications, it will halt the system for about 2 minutes.
    I think the number of lags also correlates with temperature. I am pretty sure that the notebook's heat diffusion properties has deteriorated strongly over the past year as it seems to be using the fans a lot more extensively. The heatsink seems to get really hot these days as well. So my next step would be checking the thermal paste on the heat sink. Before I am going to do that, I want to consider any remaining options as dismantling the laptop up to the heatsink is a bit of a pain.
    My gut feeling would be that it has to do either with the memory or maybe some 'bridge' that transfers the data between HD, GPU, CPU and memory. I am aware that bridge is the wrong word and I am simplifying the architecture of the mainboard too much, but I am sure you get what I mean. The data rate between some of those is inhibited.
    The reason why I am saying some is that often the system seems overwhelmed by the amount of commands, just sits there and then resumes executing all of them as it had taken a break. This can be easily seen when streaming video in a web browser. I often get the beach ball and my whole screen freezes, but the movie, or at least the sound, keeps running in the background. After a while it usually resumes and shows the movie at the current playing position. Sometimes it doesn't recover, not even after 30 minutes and I have to switch it off.
    I hope I provided enough information for you guys to have a think about this.
    Any help in this matter would be gratefully appreciated.

    Before re-installing the operating system, which might also work, I found this article helpful:
    http://macs.about.com/od/usingyourmac/qt/Fix-Spod-How-To-Fix-A-Spinning-Pinwheel -Of-Death.htm
    I've followed the directions since they seem to make sense and am waiting for the next Pinwheel of Death. They seem to be saying the same thing you are Chris, but ascribe the problem to 'permissions' which are fixable (gasp) via the OS disc utility.

Do you have any idea how can I fix it? Do you think it's a software issue?

  • Yet another grey folder thread, help!

    Sorry for yet another grey folder thread, but here goes:
    Today, earlier, installed Firefox update, along with some addon updates for that program. Quit Firefox and attempt to relaunch, relaunch fails. Reset computer, thinking that will do the trick, I now have grey folder with question mark.
    Resolve attempts: reset pram = fail; apple care cd = will not launch/fail; disk utility from original install disks = fail; cannot get repair of disk or permissions to work, continually get error about "failing on exit"; safe mode launch = fail
    So, I've done everything, and I've come to conclusion that I am f***, and my HDD is fried (but I hope I am wrong).
    So, dear gurus, my question(s)
    A) Is my HDD salvageable at all? is there some trick to getting the AppleCare cd to work? Anything?!?!
    if not, then B) How can I recover my documents/music/pictures? Long story short, there are several things on there that never had a chance to make my back up schedule, and I desperately want to keep them. Any way to make/copy a disk image to save the docs/imgs, or Firewire them to an external hdd? Do I need to consider a professional HDD rescue?

    Looks like a mechanical failure, and Apple won't cover the replacement due to a drop it sustained a year or two ago (the power cable was in, and it fell on the connection point, denting that in, Apple states there is a critical board their and that it would be $950 Tier 3 repair which I can't afford). So I'm going to try a Firewire Migration and a few other things and see if that works. If not, oh well. Thanks everyone for the ideas!

  • Yet another major gripe with APE - restricting connection to home network

    Yet another serious issue I have with APE is the fact that since very often, the computer just can't see the base station (even when it is located 30 inches from it...) it will just automatically connect to the next available open wifi network, which happens to be my neighbor's... that way I often finding myself surfing someone's else's unsecured network and it's ******* me off.
    I tried to delete all wireless networks from system preferences/network/Airport but this does not makes a difference. Any idea on how to restrict my computer to the APE or at least have Mac OS warn me every time before it connects to an unsecured wireless network?
    Thanks.

    Somewhat easy: I'm assuming you're using Leopard, mainly because I ran through the options from leopard. Other versions of OS X may have slightly different placement or names...
    Click on the airport icon in the menu bar.
    Choose "Open Network Preferences"
    Select "Airport"
    There's a checkbox labeled "Ask to join new networks" Make sure it is enabled.
    Select "advanced..." (it's a button, lower right)
    You can change the connection order by dragging your network to the top of the list.
    You can also click on a connection you don't want, then click on the '-' button below it to remove that connection. (and at least the first time, the computer will ask you if you want to connect)
    You can go a step futher, by de-selecting the checkbox labeled "Remember any network this computer has joined" That way it won't add anything to your list of 'remembered' networks.

  • Display hints, custom format method in VO, is there yet another way?

    Did you experience the same and had a solution?
    Hi,
    I am using JDeveloper 10.1.3.4 and looking for yet another way of customizing the display of an attribute of a view object.
    I have two tables: BILL and AWARDS, with composite foreign key relationship (on the LDAP_UID and TERM fields) between them, as illustrated below.
    The BILL table:
    NAME       LDAP_UID    TERM   CREDIT_HRS
    Tom Smith  tom.simth   200902       12.5
    Jane Lopez jane.lopez  200906        4.0
    The AWARD table:
    LDAP_UID    TERM  SOURCE     APPLIED
    tom.smith  200902 Perkins     2000.00
    tom.smith  200906 Direct      1300.00
    jane.lopez 200906 CN           500.00 At the business data model level, this is master(Bill)/detail(Awards) relationship. Bill is dragged from the data control palette to the page and displayed as a form, and Awards is dragged to the page as a table. When tom.smith logs in and chooses the 200902 TERM, the master and detail are joined on tom.smith=tom.smith and 200902=200902, so the $2,000.00 of Perkins loan is retrieved for him:
    Name Tom Smith
    Term 200902
    Source    Applied  
    Perkins   $2,000.00That works fine but not user friendly: the values in the TERMS column are a bit cryptic and need to be displayed in plain English, i.e., 200902 should be displayed as "Spring 2009" and 200906 as "Summer 2009". The display hints in the VO can not handle this. The only other way I know is writing a method in the Row class of the VO to do the translation. And this is the result:
    Name Tom Smith
    Term Spring 2009
    Source        Applied  
    No rows yet   Obviously, "Spring 2009" is used not only for display, but also for joining the master and detail tables. Of course "Spring 2009"!=200902, therefore no detail is retrieved for the user.
    Question is: is there yet another way to customize the display, that does not affect the join of master and detail tables?
    Many thanks for your help!

    Hi, Chris,
    That works!
    I found the chapter where transient attribute is explained and an example is given creating a transient attribute in the entity object. It turned out that transient attribute works both in entity object and view object. I did it in the VO and it solves my problem.
    I spent hours of time before posting that question, trying two different ways but neither worked. Your one sentence saved me a lot of time. I do appreciate you help very much!
    Truly,

  • HT4191 why do you need yet another email address to sync notes

    Is there a way to sync ipad notes with an imac desktop without opening up yet another unwanted "email" address?  Why do compaines constantly demand that you open up email addresses through all of them? 

    Notes are very special, their sync is done by IMAP(mail) server that syncs our emails. In order to sync notes you "have to" be connected to that IMAP and mail account is "your connection". BTW mail "ON" button will not sync your emails - it only syncs email settings between devices, like server rules, blocked servers, etc. It will not reflect on other icloud stuff, but what it will do is move your notes sync from current  sync ( if one exsits) to different. For example you notes currently can be local (on my phone), Yahoo or exchange like google. (you can check that by going to settings - mail contacts and calendars- and under your mail accounts you will see small "contacts" "calendars" and if you will see "notes" that would be your current syncing IMAP.

  • Yet another "fail to respond".....

    I've had a look around on the posts and can't find a problem that quite matches this. I bought my parents a G5 iMac with an external iSight just over a year ago. We've been using iChat happily since then, til today.
    Originally I had G4 iMac with iSight on panther. Since then we've both upgraded to Tiger, and I've upgraded to a G5 iMac 2.1 with built in iSight. Still no problems. Just after christmas I invested in a Zoom ethernet modem and tonight was the first time since then we've tried to iChat. Depending on who's trying to accept the chat, they recieve the message that they have failed to respond.
    Both firewalls are off and encryption is not enabled. This would suggest to me that it might be my new modem. So I powered up my old G4 connected with my old modem, but still no audio or videochats, with the same error messages.
    I don't see why I should be getting the same problem with my old set up too when it worked fine before (G4 running Tiger too).
    Any thoughts?

    HI Veeto,
    Ok your parents may have set up Port Forwarding like this (I can not UPnP listed on this screen shots).
    UPnP stands for Universal Pug n Play.
    It is one means of making sure the Ports in a cable or ADSL modem are open.
    Port Forwarding is another and Port Tiggering is yet another.
    Sometimes a cabele modem can be set as a Straight through device much like a USB modem.
    An ADSL modem is likely to come with some ports pen by default which allow you to Plug and Play with your Web broswer and Mail applications and Send and get files over FTP.
    However iChat uses ports ports above the 1024 threshold for these open ports. This means you have to open the ports.
    If you have the Access IP and Default Password and User ID for your 5660ADSL modem then you will be able to do the same.
    The page I linked you to has all the ports you need for AIM and Jabber accounts to work.
    This is on of the other Zoom's Pages for the same thing. Similar but different.
    You should be able to work out how to set yours up.
    Ideally you need to use UPnP or Port Triggering to use two computers at one location with iChat as these both allow multiple computer to use the same ports (Port Forwarding does not).
    It might be you have newer firmware on your modem than is shown in these pics and you might have UPnP.

    I do not see that it says it has UPnP on thier site.
