Secunia PSI gives me issues while using the internet. My zoom adsl X6 modem internet light turns red from green while Secunia connects to its server. I have to power off/unplug the modem & than turn it on several times occasionally. Errors: Secunia unable to connect, DNS unable to resolve IP, Dead PPP.... For me Secunia PSI becomes more of a headache than help. Hoping to hear your thoughts. Regards! |

I have only experienced a modem internet light colour change when the ISP carrier has had a problem finding an IP address for my system to connect to the internet , that is , when there is a failure in the link between the modem and the server ***. please note , my system is in France . You may want to check with your carrier and the modem supplier to check it's configuration . A security system firewall setting can also block your DHCP and/or DNS connections - for me it does not affect the lights on the modem , as the block is between my PC and the modem . You may need to look at your firewall settings both in the modem (hardware) and any software firewall you have installed . IE needs to be configured to allow PSI to access it's servers at Secunia (as described here):- http://secunia.com/community/forum/thread/show/329... IF all else fails you can always contact Secunia direct by email at support@secunia.com ; they will be back to work tomorrow. Hope this helps. Take care Anthony *** to be clear , this means that there is a fault on my telephone line and there is no IP allocated to me . -- It always seems impossible until its done. Nelson Mandela |

| I do not have a problem with PSI and I use a 2Wire 2701HG-E that is similar to your modem: http://www.2wire.com/index.php?p=106 My lights are a constant green. Contact your ISP and complain that the connection keeps dropping. I had a problem once and I had to get the phone company to fix my phone connection as it had a poor connection and they ran some line diagnostics to isolate the problem. |
