Not corrupt firmware? Seeing flashes of power - then it goes dead

Hello world

I'm looking not all threads resolved these but have not found something close to my problem. I have a Linksys WRT54GX4 that worked very well for several months at least. All of a sudden I noticed that I was picking up no wireless signals to the other side of my house. While they inspected my router, the two Ethernet cable direct to the PC connections were flashing, poster of activities. The Internet port also showed activity, but the power light was NOT ON. I tried the second reset step 30 and the router starts flashing lights as if it were to start normally, but then the power light will blink and stay on for about five seconds, then turns off. I can't ping the router right here or log in via the web interface - it is physically off. Then, it will be intermittently come alive, function for a few moments, and then turn off. I have no idea what this could be. Died at this point the router? The other troubleshooting steps, I can try?

Thanks in advance for any response,

-AJ

Try to hard reset the router for 2 minute... Unplug the power cable and plug power 30 seconds... and check if the power led is now solid... If this isn't the case, then, router is that went wrong.

  • Seeing flashes of power to Compaq CQ45 121TX

    Hello community,

    For the past 2 weeks, I observed that my Power LED starts to blink when the battery is fully charged and the AC is turned on.

    I checked the manual and it said that flashing LED power can occur only when the battery is low battery indicator, which is not the case here.

    Even when the laptop is in hibernation and the AC is on, LED blinks always - the rate is faster than that of when the laptop is in mode 'sleep' - almost two times per second.

    I used the HP battery check and it showed that the State of the battery is Ok. Number of cycle is 117/300, load capacity is 75%.

    The battery performs normally and can keep the laptop doesn't work for some time, while he is in charge, the LED keeps, until it becomes fully charged, then the light starts flashing.

    The laptop runs normally without the battery too, directly on the current.

    The only thing is that cell voltage 4 is given as zero mV - I know not how many cells have this battery.

    My cell phone product is FQ314PA #AB4, is about 3.5 years.

    Running Windows Vista Edition Home Premium SP2.

    I have not installed software over the past weeks, but the phone remained cut off for about a month because I was out of town.

    Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Please ask if more information is needed.

    Thank you!

    Well, the battery monitor software did not show anything out of the ordinary.

    and I have observed that for the past few days, this problem is not the case.

    the LED flashes no more even when the power is on and the battery is fully charged.

    Thus, it seems that the problem has disappeared mysteriously whence it.

    will update if this changes.

  • Seeing flashes of power on Tecra A3X (PTA3XE)

    Hello

    A user of our has decided to give his cell phone, a small glass, it is true that his office is pretty hot, but personally, I don't think it's that thirst.

    Fortunately, it isn't that she threw on her rather than liquid food sugars/decaffeinated, although he was on at the time of the water.

    Dismantled, it the best I could and let dry yesterday, most of the impact seems to be the front left (hard drive Bay swimming) if the chip of the extreme right and memroy in the Middle seems to have averted any entry of water.

    This morning when I reconnected it all, farily predicatably, don't turn on the battery power. When I plugged in the socket (at arms length) the power started flashing orange indicator - two courts, a long, two short, one long and then two short.

    Had a quick movement through the user manual and the only reference to the orange light flashing on power supply is overheating and inferes is no trend in the flashig, just that it will continue until it reaches a safe temperature.

    I'm sure that the wee thing is lousy but I wondered that the led power indicated and then by extension if this means that there is no room I can save as a spare (as it can denote ok more memory or chip and others).

    TIA!

    HM, sounds the motherboard has been screwed upward. I don't know, but if you´re really sure that everything is well connected and so on, it should work.
    Maybe the motherboard did get a small splash of this drink 'action '.

    The problem with liquids and laptops is that they won´t together and after a few times "liquid spill" a PCB can get a short circuit from devices that have been in contact with the liquid.

    My opinion: PCB disappeared. But that's just a theory. :)

    Hello

    When the laptop has a problem with power (e-card), power sends the hexadecimal code.
    In your case, there are two problems:

    -To know what this code means that you know exactly how to read this code. The binary code must be converted into hexadecimal code, and then you can compare the code with a description of the maintenance manual.
    -Maintenance manual is not a public document.

    Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do alone. Please contact nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer and leave check your laptop.

  • R6400 has not corrupted Firmware update

    I have a router R6400 AC1750. As he tried to update to the latest version of the firmware, the update has failed. Now my routers internet light constantly flashes orange and the light, the router is turned on. In addition, my internet works if plugged directly into the modem. I tried the procedure before and I tried the factory reset button, nothing worked. I have also tried to install the firmware using tfpt, but cannot get the .chk file uncompressed. I tried to use various programs of .chk as CHK-mate and Express Zip decompression, but programs do not recognize the file of the firmware that has been directly downloaded from netgear.com. Is someone can shine some light on this situation? Please help, thanks!

    I contacted the Netgear support to get a RMA # so I can get a replacement under warranty. Before receiving my RMA #, the support agent me had to solve several different ways to try to communicate with the router. Once an hour on the phone, I got the RMA and now have a replacement warranty in my possession. Just a tip, the diagnosis is free and I had to pay the shipping costs for the replacement, $17 for the advanced delivery method, it is shipping you and shipping of the defective unit back to them.

  • Dell Dimension 9200. The orange light flashes. Power disconnect day + this market but stop and it will not work unless that unplugged for a day

    Flashes orange and no lights on the front panel next to the USB ports. (see amber light on motherboard, power button / stop 15 sec + he disappears, but the computer does not start, a few times the fan turned on couple seconds), initially it used to go in the cycle (starts for about 3-5 seconds and stops) several times and the flashing yellow light.

    If I unplug the power cord for a day + and try, it worked, stop and restart immediately worked too but when I shutdown and come after a few hours, it will not start again (power plugged).
    Disconnect the power supply for a day + new and it worked once tried.

    I did the reset by pressing the power button / 15 sec + but no luck. Until a day + unplugged worked so far about three times will try again tomorrow and see what happens if I don't stop the computer ever.

    What a PSU or of the motherboard problem or some other problem? Hope it can be fixed.

    A flashing orange power LED, usually indicates a power supply problem power, given the age of the Dimension 9200, which is highly likely.

    Try to replace the power supply with a power supply of labour "Known", to see if that makes a difference.

    This system does not use an exclusive power of Dell, you can install most power supply ATX with a power connector 24 pin or 20 + 4 pin main motherboard and this can be purchased in most local computer stores, or online.

    The 9200 has a rear panel open, a diet with or without the on/off switch can be installed.

    Note: You need a PSU with six SATA power connectors.

    Otherwise, you can buy a refurbished Dell OEM [Dell P/N KH624] 375w PSU from here:

  • I can't yet see flash players in firefox after uninstall and reinstall of firefox and flash several times. How can I fix this permanent?

    I can go in chrome without any problem and watch any video without any problem. the second I get into firefox, nothing does. I had this problem on and off for years. I really don't see why you can't solve the problem, if anyone can. I uninstalled and reinstalled firefox and flash player several times. nothing seems to work. I am really really tired of this same problem for years, I stay with firefox, because you are aware of privacy and are always more. I don't know what other details to tell keep you other than that just to be and it makes it very difficult to do anything on firefox, when I can't use something simple like the flash drive. as I said, if other browsers can remedy I see no reason why firefox can not year after year. I hope there is a solution to this problem because it basically stopped a lot of my work on the net that I will no longer use google or microsoft. Thank you

    If you use extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) which can block content (e.g., Adblock Plus, NoScript, Flash Block, Ghostery) then make sure that these extensions are not blocking content.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

    No other indicator.
    Seems to be a code. If I read gives 332
    Battery is fully charged and tried more than one power supply.

    Checked the voltage on the inputs MB seems OK
    Have you tried all the combinations of battery and network combinations but nothing changes.

    Hmm... looks like a hardware problem on the mobo...
    Check the memory sticks.
    Remove one and try to power the unit using a module only.
    You should check both with different combinations means you should check also the two memory slots.

    My computer laptop didn t start because of the defective module.
    However, if this does not help, then you will need contact a local technician because the guy could locate the defective part.
    But I think it could be a motherboard problem, which means that the new Council would be necessary and this can be very expensive.

  • My computer when it is turned on will not past the blue screen of Windows Vista, not able to see the start with all the icons page

    Had to restart the computer and turned on will not go beyond Windows Vista of the screen blue, not able to see the start with all the icons page

     

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

  • Will not restart the PC if the power cable disconnected

    After a brief power cut recently, my desktop computer Dell Inspiron that PC will not re-start. The Start button was dead, as if the power supply cable was not connected. After about an hour it rebooted normally and was going well until next time, I unplugged the power cable; then it was dead again for about 1 hour. This cycle is repeatable. All goes well as long as the power remains connected. I can shut down, hibernate, or whatever it is, as long the power is not disconnected.

    It is never used to be like this. What has gone wrong?

    Hello

    I agree 100% that it's hardware related. I bet that cut in power was a power surge or something like that and something inside the PC took the brunt of it. You connect the PC to a surge protector by chance?
    I advise that you take that PC in a computer repair shop, or a competent expert, because it really doesn't sound like there is something of physically inside this PC that could be damaged. And whenever you're dealing with power, it is best not to wait until something is wrong.

    I've never seen any person related Microsoft solve this problem (no Microsoft KB article), but you can fix it using the instructions and tools to other people who actually thought of it and actually know how to repair and have actually fixed properly (without a lot of difficult things that might work sometimes maybe).

    You need as a result of suggestions from people who have actually seen and that fixed it and not people who have never really seen or actually fixed and have no idea how to solve this problem.

    And I don't know of many contributors to the forum very well - I'm no Microsoft Support and the support engineers talking Microsoft product.

    If any Microsoft Support person wants their infected system like this on purpose so you can actually learn how to solve this problem, I'll be happy to tell you how.  I can assure you that the solution is not in all the Microsoft KB articles.
