  Hi, anyone know if it`s possible to do WOL (wake on lan) with livebox. Ive done magic packet (different versions) didn`redt work really, apart from a pro ip scanning software. But that didn`t do the job proper.Im using remote desktop and realVNC enterprise. Both functioning with no problems. One of the pc vista (LAN-red on livebox), 2nd pc XpPro (LAN-yellow on live box). Ive even configured network cards for WOL .I have 2 more pc`s (wireless) , a ps3(wireless connection) and a wireless printer connected to livebox. They all function great. So anyone there with WOL knowledge ?

  Hello, I live in France and cannot find help for a specific task with my Livebox. It is in fact a France Telecom one, which is now Orange. The Livebox is a SAGEM one.

  I have just installed a Netgear WPN824EXT Router to boost my WiFi signal and it works OK, but they suggest to optimise, to switch off the WiFi signal from the Livebox. I cannot find anything that tells you how.

  Any ideas, please?

  Dear Tom?

  Have friend who’s just set up his computer with Orange (livebox but not radio one) and after the storms he has an orange light on the telephone connection part and cannot access internet. Phone works well. What could be the problem? Robinia

  Thanks in advance

  Tom, I have just installed a printer in minutes using your tutorial – it is clear, straight forward, accurate and worked first time. What a wonderful site you operate – it is a travesty of the current climate that companies create products and then only support them through money making premium cost telephone support.

  I have just installed Livebox but Orange (France Telecom) tell me that it is impossible to send faxes via the Livebox- is this really correct? If not, how do I configure the box to accept faxes?

  Hi. No one has been able to help with my problem on any other site. My laptop has connected to my livebox wirelessly but does not connect to the internet. I t has a little padlock symbol above where it says connected. It doesnt even give an option anywhere for me to input the WEP Key???my other computers are on vista and i was able to right click on the small monitor icon at the bottom right of the screen and click diagnose and repair to choose to change security settings to suit the livebox and they work fine now. I only have WEP so i dont understand. My laptop is on windows xp. Any ideas? Thankyou for your time.

  Please put me in contact with Chris C Grundy as I am trying to set up my Netgear wpn824ext to my Orange livebox but cannot. He seems to have done it so I would like to ask him several questions. I also live in France. Perhaps posting this might bring some luck also.

  Kindest regards

  Hi I wish to connect 3 PCs to my livebox but as we live in France and have 3 foo thick granite walls, the wifi doesn’t work. Can I just attach some sort of router and lots of long cables or what? Please excuse my total ignorance, the Livebox website isn’t very helpful! Thanks

• 29 Lynn // Oct 9, 2009 at 7:57 am

  I have a livelbox which keeps loosing its password? I will be happily searching or working away and suddenly the internet just disappears, investigation generally finds that the live box security settings have reverted to ppp_name and a coded password, changing this to our proper u/name and p/word deals with the problem but I would like to stop it happening at all – any ideas?

  I may have asked the question in the wrong place. I have a Linebox from Orange.fr but cannot send any emails from Outlook. The message I get is a socket error port 25. I have asked Orange but they seem unwilling or unable to help, at the moment, and wonder if anyone can tell me how to do it. I’m not a tecchie so it would have to be simple. Iimagine there is a setting that needs changing but how do I find it?Please help!!

  Saved myself loads of hassle and time by reading through your very detailed instructions and best of all he was able to use it for Christmas so thank you.
