VOD not working through WiFi Netgear Dongle

Posted: 20 Sep 2013 12:21 PM PDT

I've configured my WiFi Netgear Dongle (Netgear WNCE2001) to my WiFi Internet connection. Dongle successfully connects to the WiFi router and I'm able to browse the internet using that. Router is configured with DHCP enabled in PPPoE mode. When I connect to the Tata Sky HD+ STB, the IP connection is showing successful and interestingly it's listing all the available titles under VOD. But if I give any programme for download, it never downloads. It always stuck at 0%. I've tried connecting STB directly to the router using ethernet cable. There is absolutely no issue with downloading and everything works fine. So it cannot be direct issue with the ISP provider. May not be any issue with STB also, since it's downloading when connected directly. As I mentioned before, I tried connecting to internet using the dongle, there is no issue with that browsing. So I'm not suspecting any issue with Dongle able to work with ISP provider.

Can anyone help me point out where else can it go wrong? Am I missing something here??

Marvels Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Posted: 20 Sep 2013 11:48 AM PDT

 

The Joss Whedon drama based on the Marvel Comics property has landed a series order at the Disney-owned network, ABC announced Friday.

The ABC Studios project is based on Marvel Comics' secret intelligence organization that has appeared in countless titles, including Iron Man, Captain America and The Ultimates, since being introduced in the 1960s. The military law-enforcement agency's moniker stands for Strategic Hazard Intervention Espionage Logistic Directorate, which also has evolved over time in the comics.

ER's Ming-Na stars as Agent Melinda May, The Avengers' Clark Gregg reprises his role as Agent Phil Coulson, Killing Lincoln's Brett Dalton is set as gruff rising star Agent Grant Ward, Elizabeth Henstridge as science whiz Agent Gemma Simmons and Iain DeCaestecker as tech guru Agent Leo Fitz, with Nashville's Chloe Bennet set as Skye, a superhero-obsessed woman.

What speed do you get in wifi file transfers?

Posted: 20 Sep 2013 11:48 AM PDT

Well, i have a DNA a212 wifi modem+router from mtnl, and WAN speed is upto mtnl

but the LAN speed is max 54 Mbps (b = BITS) which is Link speed(right?)

 

I was transferring movie file of 700 mb from PC to my canvas HD (External SD - Class 4) via ES File explorer wirelessly and i was getting just 150KBps (0.14MBps) (B = Bytes), atrocious!

So, i googled and found some tweaks in Wireless settings

and changed few settings (Below)

PJRtl2P.png

 

after that, transfer speed was increased to 800 KBps (0.78 MBps) (good, right?)

Also, Airdroid became much faster.

 

But this left me wondering, if i have 54Mbps wireless router which theoretically can transfer 6.75 MBps (MegaBytes) and taking all noise, wireless efficiency, other issues, etc, I should get atleast 1/3rd of the ideal speed(6.75 MBps) i.e around 2.25 MBps. as compare to my improved speed of 0.78 MBps

 

Not a Networking savvy, so please share some views, is 800KBps speed is quite well with my DNA-A212 ?

Static IP improves service drastically

Posted: 20 Sep 2013 11:28 AM PDT

From past few days my service was just pathetic. i am having a 2mbps unlimited plan on which download speed was 2mbps but the upload speed was around 400kbps. There were issues of packet drop and high pings. So a guy from tikona suggested me that i should take the static IP service and there will be huge change in your service. And guess what he was correct.

 

Benifits

1. No login page ever.

2. Connect as many PC with your Wifi router.

3. download speed of 3.5 mbps

4. upload speed of 2mbps

5. super low pings.

6. no packet drop.

 

Drawbacks

1. you will have to shell out Rs1500 a year.

How to use Bonus/Kitty Points to buy MOD?

Tata Sky DTH now replacing MPEG2 STBs with MPEG4 STBs for free!

Posted: 20 Sep 2013 10:02 AM PDT

We are replacing close to 5-6 million MPEG-2 SD STBs at no cost to consumers over the next year. All of this is coming in from internal accruals.

 

But you need to wait for one more year to see many new channels

 

 

 

We have been adding channels in a phased manner; the process will now be accelerated with the MPEG-4 STB. By June-July next year we should be able to revise our channel offerings to consumers,

Sony BRAVIA Smart Stick

Posted: 20 Sep 2013 08:02 AM PDT

http://goo.gl/fBQXz1

 

 

The Sony NSZ-GU1 Google TV device we've seen pop up in FCC filings has been at least partially revealed today, and it's called the Sony BRAVIA Smart Stick. The blog post doesn't specifically mention any Chromecast-style features, but it is an MHL dongle that runs both Google TV and Sony's own BRAVIA apps. The features are just like Google TV boxes Sony has released before, with a remote (that the FCC filings showed is at least similar to the previous ones) that has QWERTY and voice search support. Additionally, its "picture-and-picture" feature lets users see a browser in one window and TV in another.

ACT worst broadband in service and product

Posted: 20 Sep 2013 07:25 AM PDT

Hi Every one,

 

I have chosen 40gb FUP with 15mbps plan last month by paying 6 months in advance.

 

--The power connection issues were there before

--Later the FUP usage was getting over in 3 to 4 days

--Initially it was the issue with server calculation and did reset

--After when I was out of two town for a week the usage of 40gb got over again

--When I have sent multiple emails there was no response

--Atlast I have got a call asking we are unable to solve the issue, because I was sending multiple emails they were forcing me to cancel the connection and refund my money

--Account number: 390085 

 

This is the horrible service team I have ever seen and only broadband who is asking to cancel the connection because of their issue???

 

Please be aware of the broadband as they never get back to you and never service a customer anytime.

 

Even ACT who is monitoring this forum cant help as the decision of cancellation seems to have come from ACT management.

 

Regards

This film is about drive. It's about the passion and creative drive of Kazunori Yamauchi, the architect behind Gran Turismo's birth and breath-taking fifteen-year evolution. This film will trace his relentless willingness to challenge himself, to hold none of his past achievements sacred, and push beyond the virtual divide in his pursuit of perfection. Through the support of PlayStation, Kaz's journey has forever changed the gaming and automotive landscape and in doing so, has redefined how we perceive the relationship between art, entertainment and culture.
