WRT54G loses connection & slows down

Hello

I can get a good connection when wired through the router. I also have a good connection, use wireless - intermittently. Sometimes it works, and then slows down, sometimes unrelated despite the strong signal.but and then it slows down, sometimes connection resets. Sometimes it works for days so useless for weeks.

Used connection neighbors (with permission!) continued for a few months - so of course, it's the router. Under Vista and any help would be appreciated - I need monosyllabic answers!

Thank you

Looks like that it fix the problem. To my shame I suffer this for three years! So thanks for the help.

    Hello @JohannNewma,

    Welcome to the HP support community! I read your post and wanted to tender hand can help you!

    I understand that you notice a decrease in speed wireless on the x 360-15-w100nt laptop computer ENVY when running off the battery voltage.

    You can check and adjust the power options on the system as it is probably trying to save battery power by reducing wireless performance.

    If you're still having problems, you can follow the steps described in this document to troubleshoot the network settings and internet wireless.

  • Wired connection slows down when plugged into the laptop

    Hello

    I have a wired connection to my laptop and you have a problem a week that my internet is slow. So I called my ISP and told them on this subject. My ISP says my connection is under FUP (Fair Use Policy - down internet speed when you reach the maximum bandwidth provided by your ISP in the months. - ONLY in the PHILIPPINES that is really annoying and disturbing) anyway, so I tried to stop using my wired connection to date and use the Wi - Fi connection. It went well, I have a fast connection again. And then I tried to connect again to a wired connection that is different from my own wired connection, it is connected to a PC and have a good connection speed. So I connect it to my laptop and expect that it has good connection to check if there are updates in my system. Surprisingly, the internet connection on my laptop was really very slow. I tried to check internet speed using Speedtest and 0.17 to 0.20 Mbps operation. So I removed again and again on the PC. When I checked the speed of connection on the PC, it gives me more than 3 Mbps.

    That's what I've done so far:

    Update drivers / windows

    Active mac address / changed

    Frushed DNS

    and finally tried to reformat and it seems not working do not and have the same problem.

    Yes, it's maybe a problem with the network card. I suggest you to contact the manufacturer of the laptop to get help on this issue.

  • WRT54G loses connection and will not let me connect again

    WIFI at home was great for 2 years, then every sudden in the last 2 weeks I lose my signal on my laptop and iPhone. Then, I can not find the signal, or if the device detects the signal it wont let me connect. He hears no even except my wep key, I get a message saying that I can't connect to the network. Usually, if I unplug my router and the modem I can connect and wifi takes about 24 hours or so I lost. Any help?

    Since you have already updated the firmware on your router, you reset your router and re-configured all the settings on your router? If this isn't the case, then press in and hold the reset for 30 seconds button... Release the reset button... Unplug the power cable from your router, wait 30 seconds and reconnect the power cable... Now re - configure your router...

    If your Internet Service is cable follow this link

    If your Internet Service is DSL follow this link

    When you re - configure all your router settings, you must change some settings under part wireless router...

    Set the channel on your router 11-2, 462 GHz Wireless and that the broadcast of the SSID should be activate...

    Then click the sub-tab under Wireless 'Advance Wireless Settings' and change the tag to 75 interval... Change the Fragmentation threshold to 2304 change the RTS threshold to 2307... Click 'save settings '...

    Now let's see if you can locate your wireless network and try to connect...

  • Flex 2 network slows down the entire network

    I bought a Flex 2 a few weeks ago. Installed the software Office 365 and creative cloud by Adobe. Everything worked well on both networks, I connect to.

    Today, performance on the entire network is now gone to the dogs. At first, I suspected the provider or router so crossed all the routines of standard service (this disconnect, which reboot) again and again. Same face, deadly slow performance of several PC and Mac on the network.

    Then, I hit on the idea to close my Lenovo. Suddenly, network download speed of 2 MB/s and the ping from 2000 MS to more normal speeds returned.

    I restarted the Lenovo a couple of times, from 2, 4 GHz to 5 with the same result.

    At some point when I plugged the Lenovo directly into the modem (part of the diagnosis) direct speed seemed faster.

    Because the router works perfectly with all the other machines and I haven't changed a thing on it, and because the symptoms get carried away on the network when the Lenovo is cut, I can only assume that there is something to do with the Lenovo Flex 2 and how it communicates with the rest of the network.

    I should also add that I tried to plug an ethernet cable to make sure that it wasn't just a wireless thing. Still had the slow performance.

    I'm pulling my hair out over this, if I can't fix it, I can't work (no one in my office will be able to work) and will have to return the machine...

    Any ideas?

    Thank you...

    Thanks for the reply.

    After much pulling hair and analysis where the traffic was, it turns out it was a Microsoft cloud service a too aggressive drive that decided to download dozens of large files at the same time instead of in series. This excessive series of connections slowed down the rate of time and transfer of ping everything on the network. Disable updates for OneDrive during periods of work seems to have solved the problem.

    That said, working on this, I see that updates from Lenovo is continually a significant overhead. Do not understand why it takes so resources...

    Thanks again for the response...

  • Products using Apple slows down other connected devices

    I recently started a problem where using an Apple with my AirPort Extreme product slows down or stops even connections other devices connected to the router. An example is when my iPhone download updates of applications, then my Mac, iPad, and an another android phone to family members cannot browse the Internet. Connecting to the Wi - Fi connection does not decrease, but there seems to be no access to the Internet through that when checking through airport utility it shows that the Internet is here.  Amother example is when you watch a movie to iTunes through my Apple TV, so I'm not able to browse the Internet on my iPhone.  I am currently using 6th generation airport extreme.

    Unfortunately, this sort of thing happens with the airport, having no function of Quality of Service there is no real way to fix it.

    I suggest to use different names and groups and forcing devices to a band or another problem... for example all the stuff on 5 GHz problem. See if that helps.

    I doubt it makes a difference, but what is the configuration...

  • WRT320N slows down the speed of connection - terms of support of Linksys problem

    My internet connection speed slows down to about half of it is normal speed (or worse) until I have restart my router WRT320N. I see on the net that MANY other people have the same problem and can't seem to find a solution to this problem.

    I have the latest version of the firmware installed and I have the upnp is off

    I was told recently by a representative of Linksys Chat to perform this procedure, and I was wondering if anyone has tried and there set the coupling apparently daily slowdown that set in a reboot of the router for another day or two

    Here is the procedure that I was instructed to do...
    I was told disconnest the modem to the router-connect "than a PC ONLY" via a wired port #4 - reset the router by holding the button of reset in 30 seconds - switch off the router Linksys for 20 seconds and then turn it back on - check the LEDs of the Linksys router to make sure that the power, WLAN and port #4 are lit on the Linksys router. -clone the MAC - change "Mixed" wireless settings - name - change to 20 Mhz channel bandwidth and network use standard channel 11 - and in - use the Mode personal WPA - security settings and set my WPA pre-shared key password
    Before shutting down the PC and router - reconnect the modem to the router and the PC to the router - then make sure that the modem, the router and the PC are disabled for cycle a minute and the power of their back on with the modem being first - then turn on the router and last the PC

    Has anyone tried this, and he had to fix this downturn?

    Thanks in advance

    Well it's been 6 days that I woke up this morning and turned on the router and the modem from power overnight or lower I did after question troubleshooting the slow speed in the night before, does not

    I consistantly get in the 2 to 3% of the broadband speed I pay for - but I have no idea what fixed the issue

    So I'll mark it as "Resolved" and just hope that it comes not back again

    Thanks for the recommendations Klatch

  • WRT54G2 slows down the internet connection

    Hello.

    Somehow, my WRT54G2 router slows down my internet connection. My PC is connected by cable and I cannot watch youtube videos and gave to wait fo 20 seconds for gmail to load up. If I connect the PC to the modem directly then everything works fine. Reset to the default router configuration solves the problem for a few weeks, but this solution is quite annoying. Is there another way to solve this problem once and for all?

    Thnx.

    In the latest version of firmware notes, it is written:

    -updated with the patch to solve the problems of ping

    I'll try to update my routers firmware now, if this will fix my problem, I probably won't respond to this thread more.

  • MacBook Pro slows down to a halt when plugged via magsafe.

    Hey guys.

    I had this strange problem lately, which started about 2 weeks ago.

    My Macbook Pro works perfectly as it is not plugged into the magsafe adapter.

    At the time wherever he is plugged in, it slows down to almost a halt with hiccups etc beach ball. From the MBP place goes from 15 to 20 seconds (unplugged) to 3-5 minutes (connected with magsafe)

    Now, I thought initially it was a hardware problem, but then I did a complete reformat and reinstall:

    I actually did 3 reformats full (the first two I have zero'ed my data) AND reset the SMC and the PRAM twice:

    The first reformat and reinstall brought back my MBP of El capitan to Snow Leopard. Meanwhile, first to reformat and reinstall the system, it may have showed signs of it still be afflicted by this slowness and beach ball gasp he showed before the reformat and reinstall. I kept the first reformat and reinstall for maybe 30 minutes in which I decided to reformat and reinstall once again, that I did not like the name of the Home folder.

    The second reformat and reinstall, I did notice one problem with the system, in fact it was running flawless both disconnected and connected via magsafe. I pulled up to the PS4 and played a few BF4 while I downloaded and reinstalled all the updates, then I upgraded to El Capitan. After all was said and done, I was reading how you can do a clean install of El Capitan via a USB port. I wanted to try this, so I downloaded a copy of El Capitan to a USB stick with the manufacturer of disc X and a then reformat (no zero out as starting program with El Capitan does not have it), and did a clean install of El Capitan.

    I didn't restore from back up or anything, the only thing I did was download all my iCloud data, like photos and songs etc. My system worked perfectly for about a week since the reformatting and reinstalling. He had no problem with the connected system or not.

    Now, a week later, the same problem slipped immediately came out of nowhere and the system works like crap when it is plugged. It takes 3-5 minutes to start, instead of 15 to 20 seconds when it is not plugged in. Also keep in mind, this is a new reinstall where I don't have any what garbage on my system. I didn't yet to reinstall all the games on my MBP, or anything like that, and in my opinion, this is one very bare reinstall OS. The total memory used is like 150 concerts against 350 before my first reformat and reinstall.

    So, I'm to the point where I'm racking my brain trying to figure out whether it is a hardware problem. Since the system ran a good week without this post question reformat and reinstall, it makes me doubt that it is a hardware problem. But on the flip side, since I did a reformat and reinstall, it can't be a problem of software either, especially since I didn't install anything the night before this problem appeared.

    My only hope to address this problem is I hope one of you had the same problem and have a solution. If not, it seems that I might need to get a new MBP this fall, which would be a shame this system ran flawlessly and fluidly before this annoying problem.

    Thanks in advance for any input.

    Since you mentioned the snow leopard, I understand that the MBP is an older model (2009 or almost?)... What is the status of the battery? https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT201585

    As to if it slows down your Firefox or your entire system, I cannot say, but some add-ons can connect to the internet in the background, for example, to check for mail or retrieve news/weather/etc. The best way to judge if the extension's bad performance is to use Firefox without it for awhile.

    The news that you pasted in your post usually comes in the DETAILS of the SYSTEM link OVER to the right of the question. Not sure what was wrong here.

    Last but not least, the forum software detected your Firefox in version 18. Is this correct?

    Version 18 is not safe; Mozilla reveals security flaws after each new version. Is something holding you upgrade to Firefox 21? Please let us know if we can offer you solutions or workarounds.

    If help > about Firefox shows 21.0 Firefox, you may need to disable the preference that is misrepresentation of your version number. See: sites say that Firefox is obsolete or incompatible, even if it's the latest version.

  • VTEncoderXPCService the process using 100% CPU, slowing down of the MacBook Pro to a crawl

    I'm running OS X 10.11.4 on my mid-2009, 2.26 GHz Core 2 Duo 13 - inch MacBook Pro, updated updated to 8 GB of RAM. For these last days, a process called 'VTEncoderXPCService' has been constantly running like crazy on my Mac, using about 150% CPU. This slows down my Mac to a crawl, especially Safari, where I usually end up with beach balls every 20 to 40 seconds. I need help [figure out what is the cause, as my Mac is basically unusable because of the drop in performance.

    This is a background process that converts the video in a photo or iMovie library. If an iOS device is connected, please disconnect. In the iCloud system preferences pane, uncheck that marked Photos. The activity should stop.

  • Satellite A500 - 17 X - Games slows down if I play on battery mode

    Hello
    When my laptop (Satellite A500 - 17 X) is connected, the game I play (Call Of Duty 4) works very nice, but if I try to play the game while my laptop is on battery, the game slows down. If you know what I mean.

    Is this supposed to happen because the graphics card does not work well when the notebook is on battery or something wrong with my laptop?

    Hello

    That's is a bit strange, I've never had such a problem and I don t often play on battery mode, only on AC/DC adapter.

    The only idea I have for the moment, is that you should check the power Windows settings. Maybe in the power profile that you use is something different for battery operation, e. g. CPU maximum performance set to 50% for battery operation.
    Check it!

    Here is a good article on these parameters:

  • iCloud photo library stuck in an interminable loading which slows down and stops my entire network.

    Last month I've upgraded successfully to El Capitan. Since then, after choosing to automatically download and store my entire library to the cloud, the download process caused a lot of problems. First of all, I had to leave the laptop on day and night and connected to the internet to complete the download. He has almost completely downloaded (with several modem restarts because the massive data download accidents caused connectivity) but then I had a planned trip and had to shut down the process. I tried to start again when I arrived at my destination, but it seemed to have started the process everything again (see below where the progress bar is at the very beginning again when previously, it was almost completely to the end) and close network of my poor host several times AND he ate all my CPU activity slow down and even stop any other activity of the laptop. Finally, I had to leave the process altogether for the rest of my visit. In fact, I had to disable wifi on my laptop because the process continued in the background even when I got the Photos app off the power. When I returned home, I studied the problem and learned how to fix the library by pressing the command and Option keys when I turned on the photo program. Once, the process started all over again and this time, he showed an any number of items to download (there was less than 25 000 points before this download now it shows more than 26,000).

    Finally, I got it at the Apple Genius Bar, in the hope of a quick solution. He, even, fixed the library as well as a few other permissions by using Apple's Diagnostics. Everything seems to be working again, but the process had to start all over again for some reason any and he told me to connect the laptop to the modem via a cable and left running overnight until the process completed. I did it. The first night, I was happy. It seemed that 25% of the process had already been completed. At this rate, it wouldn't take another 4 days. He told me that when he gets in, he would never to do it again. HOWEVER, after the second night of leaving it night directly connected to the modem, I checked it this morning and it seems to have started all OVER AGAIN FROM THE BEGINNING! Still, he hangs up my entire network. I can't watch the Apple TV, or use my iPad for work or my iPhone to access and other plans. Currently, there seems to be a nightmare without end of download and spoil my network (and notice that there are now more 28 000 points).

    This is intolerable. I can't live in this endless loop of photos download crashing my network and slow down my programs. I understand that this is not a problem isolated to me. So, did anyone found one simple solution other than its use onedrive or flickr or another synchronization photo program?

    28 000 pictures takes a lot of time - it took me ten days to 7000 and whenever you try to 'fix' it do you it longer - I stopped mine during the day when I was home so it wouldn't screw up my internet access form other devices, defined the Mac not to go to sleep and turn anytime I don't have internet

    Basically, your choices are to turn it off and not use ICPL or use it and let him complete without constant interference and restart the process

    Once he finished he initial transfer it stays out of the way, even with large updates (I added more than 10,000 photos since my initial download)
