My router blew up... not really, but it does no permanent internet connection, help?

Whenever I use my WRT160N V2 router, I'm constantly connected to the network and the internet (according to the network on my Vista Ultimate desktop icon)

However, half the time I enter into a Web page or click on a link, it takes a very long time to load, and then I get the error "address cannot be found, make sure that you're not stupid, and equip enough W there.»

I literally have to refresh about 2 or 3 times before it will come back.

In the meantime, my applications that remain on the internet continue to run and does not give me an indication that the internet has declined. My character in Everquest II just runs and as she always does, no lag at all.

I decided to go back to my caveman ancestry and I plugged my WRT54Gv5 (I don't really know if the version is 5 or 6, I'm rather blind) and it works better than the more recent (and more expensive) model. In fact, this works perfectly except that there is no wireless in this House (stupid concrete walls) so that if all the doors are open on the way to the other computer.

I wonder what could cause this problem, if anyone is familiar with this, please let me know.

It is a known problem with the WRT160N V2

See this thread, with the review of 25 + page to this topic...

Linksys has now re-posted the firmware "008" mentioned on the page of suppport WRT160N v2 (the "011" version caused the problem, restoring it to "008" should solve)

  • Taskbar Windows 8 says network not identified but computer identifies TI-no internet connection

    My taskbar to the laptop says "Unidentified network, no internet access", but when I click it, it opens the list of network connections and shows that I am connected to my network wireless home (he identified) and there is no notice of limited access. This seems very contradictory. I had no problems until last night when my roommate connected his Mac via the wireless to access Netflix and press the factory reset button on the wireless router. She got in line without problem, but now I can't. I'm done with my iPhone to connect with the wireless and my laptop off the phone running hotspot. I would like to move directly from the wireless, without going through my iPhone.  I can't access Internet and instead of my computer on my network to laptop, I renamed as a media player and not only as my old computer in my office (it is his link showing?). When I try to go online the page shows not connected to the internet, and I click on troubleshooting. It says restart the router/modem but I did that five times and nothing changes. I restart my laptop too. It's been hours now and I "restored" my laptop to an earlier point. She can get online and the wireless router, the lights are all green as well as do?

    Hello

    Updates KB2478658 and KB2518864 cannot be installed in my SBS 2003 and caused a loss of internet connectivity.

    A while ago, I had a similar problem, i.e. do not install and loss of internet connectivity after you apply Windows Server 2003 SP2 on SBS. In this case, we have solved the problem with the support of a Customer Support person Microsoft, a service through which we paid.

    According to the suggestions that I found in the Microsoft Web sites, I managed to remove everything that was installed by the KB2478658 and KB2518864 updates and the reinstalled successfully. I did these manually because I don't have an internet connection.

    After you have reinstalled the above mentioned security updates, I repeated all the steps that led to the problem of the previous time. Among the steps taken, have been indicated in:

    Hi JL,.
     

    Your question of Windows is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums as it is related to a problem with small business server. It should be better in the Windows Server Forums of business.

  • Missing the clip markers (not really, but they might as well be...) solutions? thoughts?

    What a pleasure! Adobe has a new neat way to put the clip markers where I need! (NOT!!!)

    The old clip markers are a thing of the past... SO, how can I work with this client? I made videos of his show at the NY Fringe Festival. Five shows, two casts. Instead of an orchestra or piano, he used an electronic track very carefully designed and registered. OPPORTUNITY! I can take the videos I did with my camera AVCHD (high-end consumers Sony model), slightly change my priority of video for a second (and third) performance with a cast (getting more close-ups of principles in a shootout, for example, and in one case I had a third to shoot what I missed or could add) , and if I have the line to the top of the electronc track I have a fake near-perfect «two cameras shoot» Singers sing in real time, but lip sync problems are surprisingly minimal, especially when you use the audio of the video of closing-priority.

    The problem: how to get the titles lined up on a specific image? The old method of the application of clip to the timeline markers is GONE. Working with Adobe technical support that I find the NEW way to add them by double-clicking the element that makes them appear in the Source monitor Panel. Here, by pressing "M" will add new markers throughout the day. In fact, the markers are added to the element level so that anywhere in the project, this clip is present the marker appear mainly (rather useless or annoying or particularly debilitating). The old clip markers added to the level of the timeline would be present only (with a fixed number - is there some numbers more) in the scenario where the marker was added; the lining to the top of the clips being the main use of clip markers, which made a lot of sense...

    SOOO... What is the problem? I have my workaround, right? BAD! Try the synchronization does not occur the playheads between timeline and source... Use 'GANG source and program'... they move in tandem, but they do not synchronize, so no go. He must be a marker in the source monitor, notice where it landed on the timeline, and take it (in the source monitor, you can not move the markers on the timeline) and move it until it falls on the playhead on timeline. Does anyone have a better way to synchronize the clips? I do not have timecode (could be possible with the workflow Adobe-suggested... but I have SERIOUS problems with that...) so I need to score and synchronize clips. I feel that something good has been taken away. I don't know that the thief thinks that he has done you a favor and give me a great new way to make... it is what, say pray?

    Try the playheads between the timeline and the source of synchronization.

    In the case of the sequence, target the track clip is on, so instead of double-click to open it in the Source monitor, press the F key.

    I feel that something good has been taken away.

    It has been.  Please let them know.

    Finally, there is a keyboard shortcut to add element marks while in the order, it is not defined by default.  But you can go in the keyboard shortcuts and the search for orders of the element brand and create one yourself.

  • Upgraded to 4.0 now my Tiscali email does not work but it does with Internet Explorer?

    I downloaded the new version 4 of Firefox and when I access my Tiscali email account and open the box, it says "you have undefined e-mail" and won't let me in the "Inbox".
    I can access my e-mail extra account which is TalkTalk.
    If I open Internet Explorer I can access to and use my e-mail account of Tiscali without problem.
    I prefer to use Firefox I've used for years, but if I can't solve this problem, I'll have to Internet Explorer.

    I inadvertently gave you the wrong channel yesterday. We try to make Tiscali to think that you are using the previous version of Firefox that has worked with. If the version number should be at the end instead of 4.0 3.6.16

    People, sorry, but the solution to use 4.0 in the post above this one is OK. Hope that it does not disturb anyone.

  • After having reinstalled FFox and Adobe Flash Player, why is a certain company Web page does not load, but it does in Internet Explorer.

    For some reason a business the company website does not load on my desktop PC. The page is grey and white with a few titles and a circle in the middle which goes around and round. I have previously (a few months ago) has been able to access the site (and have for years). I am running Windows 7. I have cleared my cache, reinstalled FireFox, reinstalled Adobe Flash Player (even tried downgrading Flash version 10). If I use IE, the loading of the page of the site with all the graphics, etc. very well, I have all the same features of FF on my laptop. The site opens well on my laptop. What's next?

    If it works in Firefox Safe mode and then disable all extensions (Tools > Modules > Extensions) and then try to find out who is causing by allowing an extension at a time until the problem reappears.

    Close and restart Firefox after each change through "file > exit ' (Mac: ' Firefox > leave";) Linux: "file > exit ')
