Windows 10

Hi.

I have recently used the free upgrade to Windows 10. Since upgrading my download speed has been terrible (putting it politely). Is this a driver issue or should I just go back to Windows 8. Speed was adequate when using Windows 8 but now it is not.

Using a K3773 dongle with an Aspire E15 computer (ACER only 2 months old)

Thanks.

4g dongle on a Router with a SIP phone

I recently purchased a 4g USB Modem Model number K5150 and I wanted to use it on my DrayTek Vigor2925 router. This part worked and I could browse the internet but I connected a SIP phone to the router  and it wouldn't register. I was advised by DrayTek that possibly the issue may be caused by the 4G dongle using private IP address rather than public IP address. If a 4G dongle receives a private IP address, it means there is a firewall in front of the 2925 router and the firewall may block the SIP packets. I wanted to confirm to see if you block SIP packets?

Pocket WiFi Connection problems

I'm having a problem with connections stalling. It seems to be with any site requiring an HTTPS connection, including Dropbox. All other types of site are unaffected. This is happening multiple times each day, and is affecting my ability to make client appointments, so any ideas for fixing it would be greatly appreciated. It's definitely a Vodafone problem, because it affects all devices connected to the modem. Resetting the modem doesn't work, and neither does rebooting the computer. Thanks in advance.

I really do not know why my old sim internet speed too slow. please help me out....

Huawei WiFi Cube Disconnects when downloading

$

Hello, my turn to post a message Smiley Happy

 

I've recently noticed that my Huawei WiFi Cube 'disconnects' whilst downloading larger files, such as updates.

 

Specifically downloading files stop, no web pages open and the Network connection is marked with the yellow exclemation mark in Windows (10) showing no internet connection.

 

This only appears to happen when downloading a relativly large file ~500MB or more. I'm using the Ethernet cable to my PC.

 

After about 30 seconds or so this fixes itself, but kind of sucks to have to redownload files (when on a limited allownace) Smiley Happy

I have a Lumia 930 on postpay plan, due to expire next year.

 

I note that the Weekly Software Wrap for 26 November 2015 (today) shows the Windows 10 update for Lumia 630 and Lumi 640 as "Pre-testing complete. No confirmed release date" but no mention of the Lumia 930 at all.

 

When will W10M be coming for the 930? Has Voda even done any testing?

Hi Vodafone,

I have recently moved to London and am here for 2 years I am wondering I would find out when my Australian contract runs out and how I would be able to cancel that from London. And is there a way I would be able to keep my same vodafone number for when I return to Australia.

I have just downloaded software version 5.1 for my Pocket WiFi 4G R216 from http://support.vodafone.com.au/articles/FAQ/Mobile-broadband-updates - when I run the software it asks for an "Unlock Code" - what is this or where can I find it?

 

Also in the "R216 v5.1 Upgrade Guide" it says "open the ‘Computer Management’ window, and select ‘Device Manager’ to check the ports you  should  see  the ‘Vodafone Mobile Broadband Diagnostics Port’, I don't have these, on mine it shows "Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device #2" under Network Adaptors and nothing under Ports.

I previously had a R207 Pocket WiFi  and this also showed "Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device #2" under Network Adaptors and nothing under Ports and I updated the software twice without  problems and I didn't need an "Unlock Code".

 

I am using Windows 10 and also had Windows 10 when I updated my R207. The Requirements state Windows: XP/Vista/7/8 only

Hi, I have a pocket wifi 585u-82, I bought from Vodafone in 2012. Now, I am not in Australia.Yesterday, I just updated the software with a firmware that I found online the procedure went fine. But as I see the device working and there is wifi mark on the LCD screen but I can't detect wireless signal from pocketwifi on my other devices, and when I connect the pocketwifi to my pc it recognise it fine and I can install the pocketwifi software but it doesn't direct me to dashboard page. Another thing is that when the pocketwifi is connected to my Pc on network and sharing center under change adapter setting I see the Huaweibroadband connection is not connected and unplugged. When I turn on my mobile broadband I see a three logo on the LCD screen. the software I used to update my pocketwaifi is named (E585Update_1026.11.64.18.505sp01.exe)
What should I do? hope to help me.
best regards.

Mobile broadband message "Additional log on information may be required..."

Hi,

 

I have just tried to log onto the internet with my prepaid Mobile Broadband - the white USB modem - and it did not connect like it usually does.

 

Instead of just connecting, the first time I tried today, it displayed a box asking for information like 'Access Point' (I think) as well as maybe a username and password?  There was an option to 'Cancel' or 'Continue,' so I tried leaving all the fields blank and pressing 'Continue.'

 

After I tried that, it showed a pop-up window, like this:

 

AdditionalLog.jpg

 

When I clicked the notification, it did open a browser, which had the heading "VHA APN SETUP" and showed the message on a Crazy John's letterhead:

 

"You'll need to update the settings on your phone so you can continue to browse the web.

For help, call the Crazy John's team on 1800 086 066 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting. end_of_the_skype_highligh
It’s easier to update your settings if you call from a different phone."
 
I called the number, which is a recording about Crazy John's being closed with various numbers to call for Vodafone, but they seemed focused on phones, and not internet.
 
Has anyone seen something like this before?  I'm nervous about using the Express Recharge if it won't connect.
