HP Laptop DV2815EA - Wireless Adapter Cuts Out During Streaming Video
Sep 6, 2012
My computer is a HP Laptop Model Number DV2815EA running windows vista 32 bit. Its a few years old. Recently i have had problems with my wireless adapter turning itself off whenever i watch videos online. It doesn't happen all the time, but if i am watching something for more than an hour it will cut off. There is a blue light and a switch on the front of the laptop, and when the wireless adapter is off, the light changes to red.
The light will change to red sometimes whilst watching video, and the only way i can turn the wireless back on is if i restart the system. Even if i activate and disable the wireless adapter using the external manual switch, or the internal controls using the wireless assistant. Also, not sure if this is relevant but i can no longer either watch videos on full screen as the image gets jolty.
Things i have tried:
1) restoring the system to a previous restore point - i tried this but for some reason the only restore points i could find were ones dated after i started noticing the problem.
2) reinstalling the wireless adapter driver and video card driver.
3) running a full 6 hour antivirus scan - I am using Eset NOD32 antivirus and also i scanned using comodo cleaning essentials.
Just got a new HD Smart TV and trying to stream Netflix and Youtube. Netflix works decent most of the time, buffering occasionally but Youtube buffers all the time and is not watchable. Using a Netgear WGT624 b/g router located some 60 feet away a half floor upstairs. Internet downstream speed is about 5.5 Mbps on the hard wired main computer and laptops show the same speed when connected wirelessly. Wireless Network Connection Status on a laptop close to the TV show "Very Good to Good" signal strength and Speed at 11 Mbps. Why is the Yotube connection so poor on the TV? The Netflix could be better too. Laptop by the TV streams Neflix and Yotube fine but of course that is not HD. Do I need an upgraded router or powerline network adapter?
I have just upgraded from an E1000 to the E3000 and have run into a couple of problems with my iphone 4s.There are a few applications, BBC iplayer, Sky Go, BBC News and ITV player that wont allow me to watch any of the online video through the iphone. I have iplayer on two other computers running through the same router and they work fine.Every thing worked fine with my old E1000 so I'm taking it that it must be a setting in the router itself somewhere that needs to be altered to allow it to work.
I am facing issues with my router EA4500 and my apple TV. When I am watching a video from my itunes library at my PC, sometimes stop playing waiting to receive data. Is that a way to conect my apple tv to my router to prioritize this video streaming from my PC to apple TV?
he tries to share a file with me from his computer to mine the file will share, once done, if he goes online to watch any video, (on youtube, a news website or even a video he has saved on his computer) he will lose internet connection. He then has to restart his computer to get his internet back.
When I try to stream a movie through the media server or through my computer to my xbox 360 the video will play fine for a couple minutes then it well get choppy and then the sound will not sync with the picture. I have the latest firmware and reset it also. Tried switching channels and changed mtu didn't do anything. tried steaming on 2 different xboxs and its the same thing.
So I am trying to forward a port on my linksys E2500 router. I need to forward 198.162.17.3 for a video streaming server. When I go to the admin panel I am only able to change the last digit, ie 198.162.1.x
Actually i need a streaming server that supports both audio(mp3) and video formats(mp4,avi..).But it should work in multicast and should possible to stream with VLC media player.now i'm trying helix media server.In this what are the procedures to configure helix sever in multicast.and how to stream media from it.Or Any other streaming server is there that suits for my need.
for some weeks now, Im searching for a solution to stream live video from a wearable device (glasses, headset) to a windows system for recording. Requirement is complete freedom from <span dir="auto">any LAN[CODE]
I am trying to setup the QoS for my router, and want to bump up the priority for streaming video such as Netflix, Youtube, and others... I am not certain what specific protocols and ports are used for streaming though. Googling Configure QoS for Youtube comes up with tons of long winded articles that never get to the point...
I have been trying to stream videos from my PC to my Xbox 360 via the Windows Media Center app. I've got it all set up, my PC detects the 360 just fine and vice-versa. However, when I go into the app on the 360 and select the video to play, it plays it extremely pixelated. Usually it just freezes up on an extremely pixelated frame while the sound of the video continues on as normal. I've tried MP4, MKV, AVI, WMV, etc. all at multiple resolutions all with the same result.I can stream just fine via HBO, Netflix, Amazon, etc. so I don't think it is my network or internet speed. I've tried putting the 360 on a static IP, I've gone through all the FAQ from Microsoft about enabling Windows Services and the like, none of which has made a difference.I am able to stream to my PS3 just fine, so I am not sure what is going on with the 360.
I am about to buy a NMP (WD Live Hub) to put my local video/music/pic content on and drive many TVs in my house. These NMP also have services like Hulu, NetFlix, etc. I plan to sign-up for NetFlix and do the unlimited streaming thing via the WD Hub. I have a 5Mbps broadband pipe which is right at the suggested level for HD streams.....but I think the DIR-655 can prioritize streams/video ?
plan to put the Hub on Static (Reserved) IP address on my network....however, I've never messed with a Router and prioritization. I assume it is something to do with the port(s) used, etc. I have no idea the ports that will be used by the Hub for NetFlix, how/where in the DIR-655 I can accomplish this how to ID the ports used would be great....eg. some variant of Netstat command, etc ?
i've lost the ability to view live streaming video (adobe flash, i think) on several websites. it happened gradually over several weeks and now videos will not load. the dir-615 has functioned flawlessly over several years but it might be showing its age now. connecting directly to my com cast broadband modem fixes the problem. can i tweak the router settings or do i need to replace it?
my setup: dir-615, H/W Ver. E1, F/W Ver. 5.00NA, two wired connections to X Box's and one to Win 7 PC. wireless connections to several Win 7 laptops and other tablets/phones. com cast high speed broadband with their Norton security suite.
if replace.....i need a recommendation. the best bang for a buck while staying within a tight budget.
I have some internet users who listen to online vedio music and and other streamin program so my network goes very slow and bandwidth consumtion is goes very high.in this situation i have no any firewall, how i can stop vedio streaming by cisco 2621 router.i have been configured to stop the bittorrent and it successfully done class-map match-any peer-to-peer match protocol gnutella match protocol kazaa2 match protocol fasttrack match protocol novadigm match protocol edonkey match protocol bittorrent match protocol rtp match protocol rtsp!!policy-map peer-to-peer class peer-to-peer drop?
I have a persistent any very annoying issue that the router reboots on it's own when I am streaming video from Netflix or other similar applications.
I read some reviews about this router which stated that this was a known problem, but apparently was resolved with latest firmware updates.
My router is new (less than 1 year). It came originally with the 2.0.1.2 firmware which I updated to the 2.0.1.3
That did not resolve the problem. So my question is, is there any aditional configuration necessary to stream video without interruptions, or, is this a hardware problem?
Movies on external hard drive connected to desktop pc. Sony bdp-s580 player. The router is a Netgear wndr3700 v3. Sony bluray player connects to the internet with powerline networking device (hence not wireless)Or would it be easier to simply disconnect the usb hard drive from the desktop pc and connect it directly to the bluray player?
looking to pick a good managed gigabit switch for my central media server implementation.I will have probably 10-12 tvs connected to this along with other things like ip pbx extensions, music streamers, ip cameras etc.Now I can imagine about 2-3 tvs simultaneously streaming HD quality movies. In that case, I am assuming I will need a minimum 150-200mbps throughput switch. Is my assumption wrong?I have been looking at some switches which seem nice and relatively inexpensive but the throughput is much lower than that.If I wouldnt need that kind of throughput then can you explain me how do I come up with my max limit.I initially thought that since its going to be a gigabit switch it would be able to handle that kind of traffic through all its port at once, but I guess thats not a correct assumption. Throughput is what reall dictates simultaneous maximum? Am I correct?
I have been having a problem with my 4400n dropping connection when streaming video / audio.It is connected half duplex to a cat2950 and the media server is mediatomb on a linux box the client is a ps3 presently.
I am having wireless connection/internet issues that are irritating me to the core!!! I have called tech support 4 times now, and I still can't get everything to play nice...I have the 655 set up as a wireless router to a Windows 7 laptop, one iPad, two iTouches, and one N3DS. I can't find a setting that will work with all devices. Here are the senarios...
1) Settings: Wireless enabled, 802.11n only, Auto Scan off-channel set to 1, Best Transmission rate, Channel Width Auto 20/40, Visible, Auto WPA Mode with AES Cipher and a pre-share key. This yields fantastic results with my laptop, it can stream video for entire episodes, and I have no problems with loading webpages in either IE or Firefox. However, it does not support the kids iTouches or N3DS.
2) Changed the above to mixed 802.11n/g AND ALSO tried 802.11 only: iTouches work and can connect to the internet, but laptop doesn't like it. I get "Problem loading webpage" every other time I access and website, and streaming stop every 5-6 minutes. Bars indicate wireless signal is strong, but intermittently get that yellow triangle.
Is there anyway to convert a laptop (with inbuilt wireless device) to a streaming device via wireless connectivity?Essentially I have a desktop and also a laptop in the house. I sometimes want to use my desktop in other places in the house, since my laptop is seriously old, I have most of my work data on my desktop. SO, I thought the idea of being able to use my laptop as a streaming device, acting as a wireless monitor, keyboard and keypad.
My laptop keeps disconnecting from the internet it drops down to 1 bar and then goes of I have to connect 3 times before it comes back on my son has his laptop beside me and he has 5 bars and no prob ?
While searching the web, watching movies, or doing something randomly on my laptop which runs Windows Vista, I seem to randomly disconnect from my internet and it will soon reconnect a minute later. I currently have Comcast High Speed internet as my ISP and my router is a D-Link DIR-628. It mostly happens when i'm watching a video or something to that extent. I'm assuming it has to do with bandwidth? I am not completely sure though.

my laptop, which connects fine to all other wireless networks, has trouble on this one. It can browse the web all day, but the second a large file begins to transfer (video, a file download, etc.) it will drop the connection randomly, usually rather quickly. The computer does not need to be restarted to reconnect, it often reconnects on its own near-immediately, though sometimes I have to go to the system tray and reconnect manually.I thought it was too far from the router, but my tower in the same room connects flawlessly, and going in to the same room as the router doesn't work. This same laptop has been fine on every other network, and every other computer is fine on this network. I've web crawled off and on about this for months, but no one's problem is limited to one computer/network combination.
After much troubleshooting to connect and stream content from my desktop to my blu-ray player, it only works if my laptop is also connected to the network. I use a Belkin N150 F9K1001v1. I cannot for the life of me figure out why it will stream just fine as long as my laptop is running as well. I am confused if this is an issue with the router or with Windows7 Homegroup (though other share options proved unfruitful).
I can burn a video file to USB stick and then insert that stick in my new HDTV's usb port, and the television recognises and plays the file. So it seems reasonable that a wireless (perfect) or wired (ok too) connection could be made to stream the content. No?I keep looking at the USB wifi sticks that allow filesharing between laptops and wonder why I couldn't just use a pair of them to link the two devices. But I can find no information out there at all on this.My problem is that movies burned to dvd or usbstick fail to play about half the time via the television usb port or via the blu ray player. "Error, no video file detected". And subtitles are very very dicey. Samsung's firmware (latest updates installed) just doesn't seem to handle files nearly as well as most software based players. VLC player on the laptop (and most players for that matter) play movies without trouble. Included subtitle files always sync up just fine via VLC without any prompting. So I'm looking for a link for watching movies via vlcplayer on my laptop and streaming them to my HDTV or Blu Ray player.

I've posted in the linux section to no avail.I also am having difficulties running samsung's shareware utilities in linux.Laptop has ethernet, 1394a (firewire), vga, usb, and hdmi ports.HDTV has ethernet, vga (hd-15), usb, hdmi, but no 1394a.Blu Ray player has ethernet (now occupied to router) and usb port on front panel and HDMI (now occupied to HDTV)
I have a friends laptop running Windows, either Vista or 7 where the video subsystem isn't working. But it is running and I plugged it into my network/router. I would like to get to the hard drive to get files off. I have both Linux Mint and Windows 7 on my computer.
Every time I play League of Legends, Rumble fighter, or Maplestory, about 20-30 minutes into the game, my laptop disconnects from my router. Then, when I try to reconnect, the router connection thing magically disappears from the settings. This forces me to restart my laptop. When I DO restart my laptop, the connection is there again. Everything is fine when I surf the web.
