ZyXEL iChat connection problem solved with updated firmware

Hi,
bought a new ADSL modem (ZyXEL Prestige 660H-61) and was unable to do video iChat with one particular person. She was/is using ZyXEL modem as well. Tried every setting with no success and noticed, when trying to find solution here, that other people are having problems as well with ZyXEL modems.
The firmware I had was V3.40(PE.9). As a last resort I updated the firmware to V3.40(PE.10) and it indeed helped. I can now call and receive iChat video calls also from the person using ZyXEL modem.
HTH,
Seppo

Hi Seppo,
Welcome To The Apple Discussion Pages.
And this was without changing the port in IChat to 443 ?
Sounds like Zyxel have pulled their finger out at last.

  • Undocumented problem solved with 16-bit pcmcia and irq error

    I am having the exact same problem as described in the following post:
    "Undocumented problem solved with 16-bit pcmcia and irq error."
    "I'm using a DAQ Card (AI-16E-4), which didn't work properly in MAX. MAX complained that the card didn't respond to an interrupt request.
    I've had this issue for a while, but dropped it, since NI support told me nothing could be done about it. Meanwhile, a seemingly unrelated problem with a wireless pcmcia network card arose. Cisco had no clue what was wrong with their card either, but I found Microsoft Knowledge Base Article Q327947. It seems that Win2k (they claim SP3 and up) disables ISA to PCI routing, which is what causes this problem.
    To fix it, open regedit
    and navigate to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Pcmcia\Parameters"
    edit or create the DWORD value "DisableIsaToPciRouting" and set the value data to 0.
    See Microsoft's article for further details: http://support.microsoft.com/default. aspx?scid=kb;en-us;327947"
    The difference is that I am using WinXP and the Regedit fix does not solve the problem. Does anybody know how he was able to continue to use the card before he solved the problem? The card works fine in MAX, but errors out in LabVIEW.

    Hey Willy,
    Here some additional suggestions that have corrected some PCMCIA difficulties in the past besides the registry edit you suggested.
    1. General Troubleshooting to Verify Correct Hardware and Software Installation
    Uninstall the PC Card hardware through Device Manager
    Remove the PC Card from the laptop
    Uninstall the NI-DAQ software
    Follow the normal installation instructions (the most important step to remember for Plug-n-Play Operating Systems is to install the software first)
    Try the latest service packs for Win 2000 or Win XP
    Try the PC Card in a different laptop
    Try a different slot in the laptop. On certain laptops PC Cards have been successfully installed in the top PCMCIA slot instead of the bottom.
    2. Additional Troubleshootin
    g for PC Cards that Return IRQ Conflicts
    For E-Series DAQCards:
    Update to NI-DAQ 6.9.3 first and then update NI-PAL to version 1.6.1 (included exe file).
    Download the attached NI-PAL (ni-cdu1610.exe), and run the installer. When receiving the error "The device is not responding to the first IRQ Level" in Measurement and Automation Explorer, try this method of upgrading NI-PAL
    3. Additional Troubleshooting Steps
    Try disabling the 3COM adapter, and any other extraneous (for now) devices like any built in serial and parallel ports. The best way to do this is probably to disable them in the BIOS. If the PCMCIA card works properly then try to reconfigure disabled devices one at a time.
    Make sure the latest BIOS is installed.
    Check for any unusual PCMCIA drivers or other software that might interfere with the PCMCIA driver.
    I hope this helps.

  • What do you think of this book: "Programming and Problem Solving with Java"

    Hello Everyone:
    This may be a strange post but I am wondering if anyone has read this book and what do you think of it?
    Book Information
    Title: Programming and Problem Solving with Java
    Authors: Neell Dale, Chip Weens, Mark Headington
    Publisher: Jones & Bartlett
    Thanks for any comments

    No believe me the book is bad! The only reason I asked is I am in a university class that uses those two books for there course. The author messed up on HelloWorld.java with 4 errors at compile time! How can anyone be that stupid since they are the ones who are supposed to be teaching me the fundamentals of Java. Anyhow I just wanted other people's thoughts about the books.
    Thanks again for your input.

  • Problem with update Firmware and Fax with m276nw

    Hi
    First of all sorry for my english...
    I have two problems
    1) I can't update the printer in wirelless mode, I mean the update program (version 2014-08-05 , Version 20140718, 12.05M) and the printer work but finally the printer is not updated.
    How can i do it?
    2) I'd prefer to forward fax in email or in alternative I'd want to read in a web interface. In this case I have a suggestion: An update could be the way.
    Thx
    P.S. Sorry again

    Hello @Compyweb,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I would like to assist you today in resolving the firmware update issue and the fax forward to email issues that you're experiencing on your HP Laserjet Pro 200 Colour MFP M276nw. I understand that you have been trying to update your printers firmware via the wireless connection but your printer does not want to do that. I'm going to provide you further instruction on how to properly update the firmware.
    How to Properly Update Firmware:
    It is best to update firmware through a USB Cable connection. This is because the firmware update will reprogram your printer. Sometimes with wireless connections there can be intermittent communication. If the firmware update is interrupted in any way while the printer is being updated it can cause a programming failure on your printer. If this occurs you most likely would need a printer replacement. Also, a firmware update gets sent to your printer much like a print job. Therefore, you need to ensure that you do no have any print jobs in queue waiting to print before you update the firmware.
    What I would suggest doing is running the HP Print and Scan Doctor Tool. If you run this tool and select 'fix printing' than the tool will run a scan on your computer and ensure that the connection, software and driver are all properly setup. If the HP Print and Scan Doctor identifies any issues it will attempt to resolve them for you. I suggest installing the printer for USB connection before running this tool as you want to run the firmware update through USB.
    HP Print and Scan Doctor
    Once you run the HP Print and Scan Doctor Tool and get the all clear that everything is set up properly than you can run the firmware update. Please click on the following link for the proper firmware download:
    HP LaserJet Pro Series Firmware Update Utility
    Once the utility is downloaded, you want to run the tool and send the firmware to the printer. The printer may turn itself off at the end of the update, just turn the printer back on if it doesn't turn on automatically.
    In terms of wanting to forward faxes to email or an alternative option like receiving faxes in a folder on your computer, these are not options that you have with your HP Laserjet Pro 200 Colour MFP M276nw. As the specs for your model printer: LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw Specs indicate you only have the option to send faxes from a computer.
    Should you still want to receive faxes to your email you could check out the third party service: Efax
    However, I believe you may have to pay for this service. Also, should you have any issues with the Efax service HP does not support this on your product. That means that if you need technical support for efax you need to speak with efax regarding this. For further information regarding Efax, please visit: Efax: Easy faxing anywhere
    Please let me know if this information resolves your issues. Good luck!

  • E1200 V2 upgraded to OS 10.8.2, Cisco Connect unsupported OS, also update firmware?

    I purchased myu E1200 Jan 2012. Have been intermittent loss of connection & not sure whether it is old cable modem or router or? ISP came out & checked & changed some cable fittings said looked ok, but could be my old modem. (I'm getting ready to move out of area so don't want to buy a new modem now). But also a lot of my neighbors w Cox report intermittent loss of connection.
    I will get messages saying I'm not connected to internet. Usually if i go up & turn off wireless & then turn it back on, it will search & find my router.  Frequently though I notice that when I check it has switched to my guest rather than primary for some reason.
    I was having some of this before I even went to wifi a yr ago. 
    Just upgraded to Mountain Lion a couple weeks ago or so. Last night computer had a panic. I received advice to make sure all software as well as router firmware up to date. Found & updated MacBookPro Firmware update. Backed up.
    Opened CiscoConnect & got message unsupported Operating System.
    Reading about upgrading firmware, saw warnings about doing it hard wired or it could permanently damage router. Because of the intermittent connectivity problems & the warning, I think I would be safest to do this  manually by downloading it 1st & then updating the firmware from the download.
    I see that instructions say to determine Firmware version. & it also says it will ask for router IP address. I'm guessing all that was in Cisco Connect. I know it has my passwords, but now I can't get to it. It also says I can use the web set up page to get the current firmware version. For updates (but it says for pc) it shows 8/2011 & 8/2012. Since mine was purchased in 1/2012 & unless it self updated, I'm guessing it is running the 8/2011 firmware. But just noticed in the User Guide it says that when I run Cisco Connect it checks for updates & installs them.  But that's kind of interesting w all the warnings about running it w a wired connection to make sure no interruptions.  Not sure how I have it set up, but I usually set software updates to prompt me so I can control when they actually run.
    Once I have gotten that, will I be able to manually download the appropriate firmware version? Or if I click on that, will that start a set up or update process?
    If I download Cisco Connect, will it update the already installed version, keeping all my existing info?  & then will that be compatible w Mountain Lion & then show me whether the firmware needs to be updated?
    Kathi

    But anyway, I can't even open the old version!!! I just get a message about unsupported OS! So kind of hard to uninstall if I can't open it.
    & for some reason when I was installing Mountain Lion, upgrading from Snow Leopard it found an old version of Parallels which I knew was not compatible.  Didn't even think about this.
    Its sort of working but something is not working very well. I sure wish I hadn't listened to those who said to save the $ & not get the Apple Airport Express. Their stuff works & its not hard to set up like this!
    This is SO LAME!!!
    & Where is lists the info, I have so far found NO INFO about updating. I usually have my software set to notify me so I control when it updates. & I think the last times I was in Cisco Connect it was under pressure just trying to get the router working again.
    Right now I feel like throwing it at something.
    Well, I have twice tried to download from the list for my model & when I click on the set up icon I get a message that "Setup" is damaged and can't be opened. You shold eject the disk image." But when I click for more info it says:
    The app has been modified or damaged
    The app’s code does not match the original code that was signed. The app has been modfied, or it may be broken or corrupted or have been tampered with. If you feel that an app has been damaged or tampered with, you should delete it by dragging it to the Trash.
    Some apps and tools, such as AppleScript applications and some legacy tools, modify themselves after signing. These types of apps cannot be opened unless the Gatekeeper settings in the Security & Privacy preferences is set to “Anywhere.”

  • Wireless connection problems (SOLVED)

    Seems to randomly work now, thanks
    Yesterday I was doing normal things on the web and suddenly the airport logo went blank, connection is gone.  Strange, so I try a few things:
    - messing with Network Preferences, which after manually trying to connect to my router (it won't do it automatically) I can get 5 bars, but still no connection
    (there is a 4-5 step process, and at the end when it asks if there's a router or firewall between my connection and to restart my router, it never gets past that part)
    - restarting router multiple times, restoring factory settings.  Neither works, and all other devices in the house can still connect to router.  Also tried to update firmware.  It's a Belkin router.
    - my wireless can detect routers, it picked up my neighbor's, it just can't connect.
    - did a virus scan with Norton, nothing detected
    - I restart on Bootcamp with Win XP and I can connect right away to the router!!
    [steps I might try next:  hauling my Mac Pro to my friend's house and see if it can connect wirelessly, or trying to connect via ethernet and update Mac OS (I have the latest version but missed one update)]
    So I'm dumbfounded, is it a software or Mac OS problem?
    Thank you

  • Zen Nano Plus connection problems - SOLVED (1/2/06)

    I recently bought the Nano Plus. On first installation everything worked fine. I decided to upgrade to the latest drivers and firmware via downloads from the Creative site. At some point during the firmware upgrade, everything seemed to hang. Eventually I had to halt the process, disconnect the player and reboot.
    When I plugged the player back in, it is detected as a USB Mass Storage Device, but Windows Explorer and the Zen Nano Plus Media Explorer both claim that the device is not connected.
    Here's what I have done so far:
    )Uninstalled all drivers and Creative software, rebooted, reinstalled drivers/software, rebooted. When plugging the player in, a brief window pops up saying Zen Nano Plus has been detected. This is followed by USB Mass Storage Device being detected (this window stays up a lot longer, sometimes more than 5-0 minutes before disappearing).
    2)Another uninstall/reinstall, but this time with a registry cleanup in between. Same result.
    3)Tried installing installation cd on partner's laptop and plugging in the player. Absolutely everything works fine. So it's not my player. There must be something I still need to do on my desktop to get everything to work again.
    4)Have also tried plugging into every USB outlet on the desktop. No change.
    My system:
    Windows XP (sp 2)
    3.2 GHz
    Intel 865 chipset
    2 GB RAM
    My Zen Nano Plus is currently running .0.03 firmware (latest).
    On this desktop I am running the latest drivers (Creative Mass Storage Drivers .07.00.250)
    When the player is plugged in, device manager shows no problems. Under Disk Dri'ves, Creative Zen Nano Plus USB Device is listed (and says the driver is from Microsoft, 7//0, version 5..2535.0). Under USB, USB Mass Storage Device is listed (and says the driver is from Microsoft, 7//0, version 5..2600.0).
    I have tried manually updating these drivers to anything listed in the Creative folders upon installation, but it does not detect anything. When I check the drivers listed on the laptop that works with the player, these same driver details show up.
    Any advice would be appreciated. I certainly would hate to only use my partner's laptop every time I want to update my music. I am also frustrated and puzzled as to why my player first worked on my desktop and now doesn't.Message Edited by lcvdw on 0-03-2006 2: AMMessage Edited by lcvdw on 0-03-2006 2:2 AM

    lcvdw wrote:Can you tell me what I am supposed to see if it is connected properly?
    With your player connected and View, Devices by Connection selected in Device Manager navigate through as follows:
    Advanced Config and Power Interface (ACPI) PC
    ->Microsoft ACPI-Compliant System
    -->PCI Bus
    You should then see a series of USB Host Controllers that you will have to click through in turn to find the one your player is connected to.
    Underneath each controller should be a USB Hub, and then devices are listed beneath the hubs.
    For my N200 I have USB Mass Storage Device, Creative MuVo N200 USB Device then Generic Volume.
    Your entry should be similar but with Zen Nano Plus instead of N200.
    While you're there, right-click on the entry for the hub attached to your player and select Properties. On the Power tab it will show how much current the port can supply and in the Attached Devices list it will show how much power the player needs. In my case the hub supplies 500mA and the player needs 00mA.

  • WiFi connection problem solved

    My intel iMac and MBA had no problem but iPods 3g and 5g did.  I had an old Netgear router connected and sitting next to my Airport Express.  On a hunch I diconnected the Netgear and created a guest network to replace the one on the Netgear.  PROBLEM SOLVED! 
    Evidently our iPods and boarder's iPhone had problems sorting out the signals and finding the right addresses.  Moving the AE to a higher and slightly more central position also helped.
    Jim

    Same here on a Vodafone PocketWiFi 2.
    Tried NetworkManager, wicd, wifi-menu but all have the same issue.
    I recently installed Aptosid on another machine and it has the same problem... It also has kernel version 3.9.
    All the live CDs I've tried work, even an Arch CD from May works, though a current install does not.
    I have no problems connecting to another (wpa2 enterprise) network yet can't on this 3G modem.
    I'm hoping this isn't a permanent issue and perhaps an update very soon will fix this.
    It seems the only way to fix this for now is to use an old version of Linux. I'm currently running a virtual machine only for the purpose of Internet sharing, very annoying.

  • No Problems here with Update...

    I just wanted to post and say I did the update yesterday and had no problem at all with download or the phone after the update. After reading so many post on the problems everyone was having I was worried about updating. But I decided I would give it a shot. And everything when real smooth, itunes was already updated so I just downloaded 3.0. It took about 20-30 mins for the whole process to complete.
    As for the phone, it runs great, does not get hot and the battery does not go down any faster than it did before. I've got all my apps and have even added some since the upgrade with no problems. The update did however add a page to my apps. And everything new with the update works just fine.
    Here is just some thoughts, I have a very fast web connection and a new Dell i7 computer and maybe it has something to do with that as to why I have not seen any of the problems that others have had. I don't know.
    So I would say if you have a pretty fast connection to the net, go ahead and do the update, it's great! Dale

    if you have no back up in icloud or itunes the best you can do is sync with your computer and get back  what you can from there

  • 5230 connection problems on Software update and Ov...

    Hi,
    I recently bought a 5230 on a talk mobile monthly contract and I'v had a few connection problems. First of all I can't check for updates for my phone or the software on it. I just get an error message which says 'connection error'.
    Similarly with Maps it simply won't connect to the internet saying 'something went wrong with the connection, please try again'.
    The other internet accessing functions of the phone, like the browser and ovi store etc, work fine. Does anybody have any ideas as to what the problem might be?

    I am on Pay & Go with o2 which includes web - same old prob with accessing ovi maps - will not allow connection to the internet - in spite of apparently managing to update the latest software - as o2 suggested.  Don't know what to do or where to go next for help.  Nokia support - zero - wish to hell I had never bought the phone as it has caused me no end of grief - time for an iPhone methinks!

  • Canadian store connection problem solved

    As I said in a previous thread I would like to thank cgygeek and Timmy Y for solving the connection problem to the Canadian Itunes store. For those still trying to get in, you have to completely disable Norton Antivirus 2006 for the duration of time you want to shop in Itunes. (not just the firewall) Apparently the 2007 Norton Antitvirus doesn't create a problem for the store.
      Windows XP  

    When you installed NIS 2007, did you use Norton's software removal tool to remove NIS 2006? I believe if you don't use this, files from NIS 2006 remain that cause the connection problem. I would suggest you talk to Symantec as they are aware of the iTunes connection problem and will help you more than Apple and you can have a live chat with a support person for free.

  • IChat connection problems and no preferences to change

    I have been receiving the "ichat connection alert" for the past three days. I researched it and the most common advice is to try logging into AIM from port 443 rather than port 5190. My problem is that when I go to ichat preferences the only thing I see is the A/V options. I do not see any other tabs. How can I get all the preferences options back?? This is an emergency since I use ichat to communicate with my clients.
    Any help is appreciated!!!
    Message was edited by: Host <to clarify Subject>

    Thanks for your reply.
    I went to preferences but did not see com.apple.ichat.plist. I searched my computer and found a couple of them in I'm guess old restore files(just a guess) and deleted those and restarted. No help. I opened ichat, but my contacts are not showing online when I know they are and I still only see the A/V menu in my preferences. Then after a minute ichat start disconnecting and connecting very rapidly. I just have to close it. Feel like I'm going crazy!

  • Wifi connection problem better with full battery

    I have a macbook air I bought in 2012  (1.7 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 Gb memory) I know there are a lot of problems with other users complaining of wifi connecting problems. I have experienced the same problem but only when my battery charge is less than 98%. After my macbook has been on sleep for several hours, and has not been plugged in, the battery slowly drains and when I try to use it, it refuses to connect to any wifi connection. But as soon as I charge it up to 100% then it automatically connects, without having to restart it. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this and if there has been any other answers from Apple regarding a potential fix for this issue....

    Try this and it should reset your printer.  On the front panel press the * and the # key at the same time, then press 1,2,3 in that order on the touch screen touch the left arrow button twice which will take you to the reset menu then press ok.  Press the left arrow two more times and it should say "semi-full reset" press ok and this will be performed.  The printer should shut down and will have to be turned back on, it will ask you for your language and your country the printer should initialize itself and should print an alignment page. NOTE: any speed dial numbers will be lost when you perform the semi-full reset.
